| Report: 15 Muslim worshipers killed after US airstrike mistakenly targets Iraq mosque |
| 2015-02-18 |
| Lebanon's al-Maydeen reported that 15 Muslim worshipers were killed after US airstrikes targeting the Islamic State terror group mistakenly targeted a mosque in Haditha. The report has not been confirmed. Obama's going to grovel? |

| #15 We will have to have a Boston bombing event three times a day like in Baghdad or Beirut before the Helter Skelter Manson hippies in charge of the media will react in any way, and with Barry the scat eating muslim homo in the White House, you are guaranteed to get it. Sorry for the coming victims, but until dismembered limbs are on TV every days, people will keep voting for the likes of Barry Hussein. |

| #13 The main difference between Republicans and Democrats? We have a D President when this happened. Republican: "Meh, collateral damage." |

| #12 Even after an attack on the scale of Pearl Harbor the Western political class had no desire to deal with the Taliban in a serious manner. Doing so would have hurt feelings, and hurting feelings was, has been and is absolutely verboten. Why should one expect them to do anything consequential about ISIS, a group that so far has 'only' committed war crimes 'over there?' I don't buy politicians' professed outrage over ISIS' crimes when the same politicians want to negotiate with the Taliban, serve the Taliban, pay the Taliban and endorse Taliban rule. All this AFTER 9/11. For these politicians ISIS is a distraction to buy time for Iran to acquire nukes and missiles. |

| #10 It'll be parity when we read of Christians beheading random groups allan worshipers. Until then its a measured response. |

| #7 Propaganda. But it seems that ISIS is very good at managing the media and propagating their beliefs. Look at it, they burn people in cages, cut their heads off on you tube, machine gun them into ditches reticent of Nazi Germany, Line up a bunch of Christians on the beach and beheads them, and the world remains fairly ambivalent to them. Its amazing. I always wondered how we allowed the Nazis to get as far as they did before jumping in to help. Now I know, I am reliving history. I mean, really? We have some legally blond chick that says I'm not smart enough to catch the nuances of her statement? Italy is taking a lead role in ISIS in Libya? This world is upside down. |

| #5 I know, Marie Harf is going to tell us "It wasn't a real Muslim mosque, or a real Muslim prayer." |

| #3 The categories 'persons residing in a mosque,' 'Muslim worshippers' and 'theocratic, totalitarian genocidal war criminals' are not mutually exclusive. |

| #2 Just because they had AK's, NSV's and Manpads doesn't mean that they don't answer the call to prayer. |
