#1 If I wasn't thoroughly grounded in the mental disciplines of transnational progressivism/progressive liberalism, I would begin to wonder if - maybe, just maybe - ISIS/Al Qaeda etc... are not a small group of extremists trying to hijack a great religion.

#2 You've always leaned a bit to the conspiratorial. You'll no doubt soon be suggesting a villainous plot is underway to extend 'Automatic Plate Number Recognition (APNR)' to humans via wrist tats or something.

#3 Remember, you don't have to completely defeat an enemy, but to weaken it so much that other predators in the environment ascend to dominate the territory.

And the whole Syria thing is about Israel and SA channeling them north to Turkey.

#9 Trump supporters, most political conservatives and many military officers point to Obama’s supposedly hasty withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011 as the impetus for the rise of ISIS. That explanation was simplistic — and, in the case of candidate Trump claiming that Obama literally "founded ISIS,” bordered on the absurd.

Army Major using the title Army Major exposed as a political hack. This guy missed the whole point that our political and military withdrawl allowed the Shia govt. to declare war on the Sunnis...and the Sunni population provided the perfect host for ISIS...an armed, pissed population willing to make a deal with the devil to fight with the Shia... Obama the enabler may not have been the founder of ISIS...but the Caliphate surely would not have been founded if not for Obama's stupidity.
