#1 It appears his efforts to enlist the locals to do the dirty work to contain ISIL are not working.

Seems to me Sheikh Qassem is calling BS on nowhere man's speech.

#2 The concept of Muslims following infidels in a conflict against other Muslims was flawed from the beginning. No one can be sure what Champ studied in college, but the geopolitics of religions may not have been on the list.

#3 "Americans accept ISIL in our region while trying to prevent it from spreading to its country. Terminating ISIL is not being considered at all."

Sheikh Qassem makes it sound like that's a bad thing.

#4 Let Nasrallah do the terminating with his 100,000 rockets and etc. Oh, I forgot, those rockets are only for murdering Jewish families.

#5 After all, both the anti-Gaddaffi + anti-Assad "Moderate" Rebels are still waiting for their formal US support in arms + $$$, etc. to appear.

The Bammer's anti-ISIS war plan is just a slightly improved rehash of what he = USA was benignly doing already, save wid more advisory-only SPECOPS.

WE WILL SEE IT, IFF-N-WHEN WE SEE IT.
