War

Not only is ISIS a tool of the US government, the US government is a tool of ISIS.

"In an age where imagery takes the place of text – and of rational thought – the ISIS public relations department certainly knows its business. If the whole point of using social media to transmit horrific images of their deeds is to lure us into re-invading Iraq, then they succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. While it seems like only yesterday that the President disdained ISIS as "junior varsity," today he is mobilizing a mighty worldwide "coalition" to wipe out a group he claims is capable of attacking the United States. "

The ploy was about getting the US to topple Assad for them. All this fearmongering over ISIS proves we are not safer. Back to the original article:

"This is the real crux of the matter, and the actual reason for this intensive barrage of war propaganda: it’s a back door way to carry out regime-change in Syria. Stopped from bombing Syria in direct support of the Islamist rebels by an upsurge of antiwar sentiment, the President is using the execution of two American journalists as a pretext to intervene in the Syrian civil war in a big way."

Exactly.

"The Islamic State is merely a pretext: the real objective of Operation Doubletalk is regime change in Syria and minimizing Iranian influence in the region. As ISIL seeks to fill the power vacuum left by the destruction of the Iraqi Ba’athist regime, America’s re-entry into the region marks the beginning of Iraq War III – which looks to be an expanded version of the first two conflicts."

Exactly.

President Obama gets his war in Syria.

"Who will provide the legions Obama will deploy to crush ISIL in Syria? The Free Syrian Army, the same rebels who have been routed again and again and whose chances of ousting Assad were derided by Obama himself in August as a “fantasy”? The FSA, the president mocked, is a force of “former doctors, farmers, pharmacists and so forth.” "

It's a farce. They don't care who wins, only that they reduce Syria to the stone age.

Kerry exposes US hypocrisy on ISIS by forbidding Iran from talks about defeating them because Iran supports Assad. How is that inappropriate?

"The Obama administration is looking to build a broad coalition against Islamic State militants. That does not include Iran, however, even though Iran is helping arm Kurdish forces fighting that group in Iraq with the backing of U.S. airstrikes."

Absurd.

There are good, economic reasons we shouldn't fear ISIS.

Obama overruled Generals by refusing ground troops.

Not too long ago, ISIS had 1,700 members. But to be fair, even then Sunni militias were teaming up with them. The Sunni militias are probably being counted as ISIS now.

Here's what a year of propaganda has wrought.

"A Washington Post-ABC News poll this week showed that Americans overwhelmingly view the Islamic State as a serious threat to vital U.S. interests and, in a significant shift, widely support airstrikes in Iraq and Syria. Seventy-one percent of all Americans say they support airstrikes in Iraq, and 65 percent support strikes in Syria. That is more than double the level of support a year ago for launching airstrikes to punish the Syrian regime."

A victory for propaganda over reason.

While Kerry claims the US isn't at war with ISIS, Obama's spokesman claims it is.

"The Obama administration's chief spokesman confirmed on Friday that the United States is officially 'at war' with the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS, also called ISIL), the terror group that has become America's top military and foreign affairs priority."

Typical socialist mismanagement. More.

James Foley's family are crushing Obama. Well deserved. Government denies threatening the family with prosecution for raising ransom.

The state makes enemies.
