File under: Govt of Iran

#1 The empty suit administration is sounding more and more like the UN with all of their condemnations and inactivity.

#2 Quds forse is already in contact and fighting. 1st casualties being reported in Iran. From what Im hearing,some light infantry in trucks is marshaling on the Iraqi side of the border in friendly Shiite dominated areas, and will likely move in force to secure Shiite religious sites, and then directly engage the ISIS, as well as local Sunnis. Rumors in Baghdad also say the Iranians have a a mech bn and artillery getting ready on the Iranian side, to cross over once Maliki asks formally for help - so the Iranians finally get effective (de facto, not de jure) control of a chunk of Iraq, and they get to be the Good Guys while doing it.

They are playing chess, we are playing... golf.

#5 Except I don't think the Jews are going to play by a script put forth by our feckless-community-organizer-in-chief when their existence in on the line.

Exactly correct, with visits to Tehran and sanctions lifting to follow. What a fantastic legacy.

#7 Report from last night indicates 2K+ Iranian troops are in or being deployed to Iraq.

Most likely the end result will be a rump Iraq that is closely tied with Iran.

#8 Ah, working with states that sponsor terrorism now. Remember how the Left(tm) denounced deals/working with dictators (see-Franco,Pinochet)?

#9 Again the hand of ValJar and that moron Rice. Since all policy is seen through a Chicago political lens and pro-Muslim attitude, ValJar's affinity for her place of birth doesn't seem out of place. Helping Iran while thumbing you nose at the Jews is a twofer for her and Champ stays out of the WH and gets folding with syncophants with raising money and giving endless speeches
