PM Cameron, Unleash the SAS

Now ISIS is trying to control who goes to war against them. ISIS is indeed very dangerous, so are many of the regimes in Africa, Evangelicals advocating murdering homosexuals in Africa, conservatives taking advice from Cheney and McCain and that ass the thinks we should bomb for a few weeks and see what happens.

ISIS has been beheading women and children in Iraq since they started this cycle of crazy religious fervor. The only difference is that they WANT the US to become involved and the rest of the world and they have learned to use technology and psychology to fire up fear and loathing among American citizens.

I am extremely sorry for the families because no one should have to experience that, but I am also extremely sorry for the Sandy Hook victims and the family of those 5 children killed by their father this week. However we didn’t go to war over guns, in fact the same men who are advocating sending our children to war AGAIN were the first to cower in the face of the NRA.

When did the American people become invisible and mute?

Time is short for these criminal cowards. We don’t need to let them make us hysterical. This is nothing but a gang. Time for the Arab world to clean up its own shit.

Going to war – as in boots on the ground – is not necessary in this case. But surgical drone bombing is. In the cases you cite – Sandy Hook and a murderously demented father – is there even a remote possibility of the killers doing the same thing tomorrow or next week? Obviously not, as Adam Lanza is dead and Timothy Ray Jones is being held for trial. If such a possibility existed – as it clearly does with ISIS – there would likely be an enormous law enforcement effort to stop them. Extrapolating their murders into gun safety legislation is, unfortunately, too abstract for most Americans. Not a good analogy at all.

Translation: Too bad, so sad, couldn’t really care less.

Oh, no, no, @deckbose ! This will just make more terrorists, just like resisting evil will make more evil people. So you need to adhere to the pacifism of the Left because, really, these beheadings are our fault.

Oh, did I say “beheadings”? I meant, “slow, hacking off of a head with a small knife.” You see, unlike those infamous (fake) Kuwaiti babies-in-incubators stories, we actually have the videos that we can play and over and over again to hear the screeching, the horror and the pain. But if you think about the US doing something about it, well, then you need to be condemned as war monger.

There are plenty of atheists in foxholes. Just no liberals.

Kind of an odd comment since I’m a diehard liberal for my entire adult life.

It’s only odd if you read that, stare at your shadow box, and then look back the screen. Besides, respectfully, that’s not even the point.

Do you ever make any sense?

And your point is? Why don’t you use the direct language so people understand your position instead of hiding in irony, and ridiculous comments? State your position and discuss ideas.

It’s almost as if ISIS doesn’t know what to do now that they made so much progress and is now bogged down.

So to keep up their courage and get attention that could result in more funds and equipment from the Saudis, they are acting like victorious barbarians. Makes you wonder if the Saudi are just like Assad.

Just because Bush liked holding hands with the Saudi princes, doesn’t mean with should jump everytime the Sunnis say “Boo.” It’s not like they have any well thought out plan on how to conquer the world. They just play video games on social media to get ideas.

ISIS could turn on the Saudis (and the rest of the Muslim dictators), too, and probably will. That would be the Saudis’ fault and they need to deal with it themselves.

Indeed! We have the video – enough to incite even the war weary into unbridled, uncontrollable rage.

Too bad we don’t have the video for that Afghan wedding party we blew into red mist, or the thousands of other noncombatants we’ve slaughtered, people just as dead as if they were beheaded with a pair of chopsticks, including women and children.

Yeah, too bad, because if we can’t watch the video, why, it just didn’t happen. So if we did have those videos, we just might take a deep enough breath to realize this isn’t about beheadings any more than it was about incubators, the relative veracity of the particular Goldstein narrative now in play aside. The oil is in jeopardy, and it must flow.

“But if you think about the US doing something about it, well, then you need to be condemned as war monger.”

Doing something about what? You want to be praised as a peace monger? Then prioritize based on sheer numbers of senseless slaughter and do something about the most egregious injustice to humanity with the most urgency, namely, the terrorism at our hand that spawns from our addiction to fossil fuel.

We cannot kill our way out of this problem.

Unless by “the American people” you mean “me, the only American whose opinion should count” (a stance ordinarily associated with the other guys, not us), I think you need to look at some polling. Popular opinion, including among liberals, is in favor of going after these people.

Your rants make very little sense. BTW I was an agnostic in a foxhole plus
also a liberal. But then the point of your post was not to discuss or inform
merely to insult.

The man who makes up some nonsense like “stare at your shadow box, and then look back the screen,” tells me what the point is.

Ah, the irony is thick enough to use as heat insulation.

Let me just thank you for co-opting my comment for your own small-minded purposes. Next time use your own.

Time for PM Cameron to quit shooting his mouth off and actually man up!

“…ISIS threatened another captive…”

Unless?
