War

More effective than government, Anonymous disables 1000 ISIS twitter accounts.

Former CIA director blames Snowden for Paris attacks. Scapegoat for government failure.

Every terrorist attack proves the war on terror is a failure.
"Since 2001 the US has expended enormous efforts to kill a handful of men – bin Laden, al-Zarqawi, al-Awlaki, and this weekend, Jihadi John. Others, many without names, were killed outside of media attention, or were tortured to death, or are still rotting in the offshore penal colony of Guantanamo, or the dark hell of the Salt Pit in Afghanistan.
And it has not worked, and Paris this weekend, and the next one somewhere else sometime soon, are the proof.
We gave up many of our freedoms in America to defeat the terrorists. It did not work. We gave the lives of over 4,000 American men and women in Iraq, and thousands more in Afghanistan, to defeat the terrorists, and refuse to ask what they died for. We killed tens of thousands or more in those countries. It did not work. We went to war again in Iraq, and now in Syria, before in Libya, and only created more failed states and ungoverned spaces that provide havens for terrorists and spilled terror like dropped paint across borders. We harass and discriminate against our own Muslim populations and then stand slack-jawed as they become radicalized, and all we do then is blame ISIS for Tweeting."
It can't work.

ISIS is a tool of the US and allies, but an unreliable one.

Theory attacks in France are designed to motive native French to mistreat Muslims in order to radicalize them.

ISIS mastermind in Paris ran numerous attacks but led a charmed life or was protected by western intelligence.

Worse Republicans make Obama look less bad on Syria and ISIS in which nobody will ally with Russians and Assad, but they should.
"If we declare a no-fly zone over Syria, or establish a "safe zone," we risk war not only with Syria, but Russia, Iran and Hezbollah.
None of these allies of Assad will meekly stand aside while we take military action to deny the Syrian regime and army the right to defend itself and survive in its war against ISIS, al-Nusra and other assorted jihadists and rebels.
Having invested blood and treasure in Assad’s survival, and securing their own interests in Syria, they are not likely to submit to U.S. dictation. Are we prepared for a war against both sides in Syria?
Who would fight Russia, Iran, Hezbollah and Syria alongside us?"
No kidding.

The new space race is a satellite arms race.

The US admits one base in Africa, but the real number is between 11 and 60.
