I-BLITZ
-
For those of you watching the terror unfold. Thought I’d post this daily map for reference, as this is as good a place as any to post comments on the growing ISIS in IRAQ conflict.
I hate to say it, but from the media reports it seems the I-BLITZ is winning.

Losing battle for us. How long are we going to go to the other side of the world to beat our heads against a wall?

I just read Obama is trying to give 500 mill to the Syrian rebels…
Lol…

Lol…
Yeah.
Good Lord.
Better use of funds would be to buy 7 more F-18s.
Or actually get vets some treatment they need.

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have an incredible urge to go and try an help “thin the herd” so to speak, of these extremists…pretty bad when Al Qaeda won’t even affiliate with them…

At least the US is doing something. I’m living in the Netherlands, and the Dutch have just “helped” the Kurds by sending them…. 1000 helmets. A Kurdish spokesman said that they didn’t need them, and wanted weapons that could in fact kill somebody. The Dutch foreign minister has now stated that he “cannot exclude the possibility” that actual military support will be offered.
It’s just downright embarrassing. :-( -
The last unit I was in is over there right now…it is very frustrating knowing that they are over there…and I’m sitting at a desk…I’m not yet ready to give up time on the line it seems…

I think the best way to thin the herd at this point, may be to let the people that live there “Have Islam” for awhile. Infact, let them have all the Islam they’ll ever want.
Sooner or later they’ll figure it out.
I especially love how the Media is portraying Assad as the good guy now. I remember the conversations we had on this board regarding the gas attacks, and who was responsible for what etc, and all the haters out there, many of whom now are silent.
Talk about things going from bad to worse.

Just the other day, a theorist on Middle Eastern affairs was saying that the troubles we’re seeing in that region, and within Islam itself, can ultimately be traced back to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, which is something that could add an interesting perspective to everyone’s next game of A&A WWI:1914.
