#5 I just watched the video of ISIS capturing unarmed truck drivers and executing them. I am at the point where I believe we should pull all of the Americans out. Then send in the B2 and work the nuclear option. From there put Iran and Soddie on notice or they are next. This Religious war is moving west, I do not want it in America.

#6 Rather than try to play whack-a-mole wherever these terrorist organizations may pop up, what we have to do is to be able to build effective partnerships.

And you've been sooo effective at that, haven't you, Champ. Can you - or anybody! - name one 'effective partnership'?

#8 So, the empty suit administration is about to recant on their positions about the "Global War on Terrorism"?

Geez, how are they going to spin that without admitting Bush was right about it all along and maybe his Iraq incursion and Afghanistan were the right thing to do at the time?

I wonder how San Fran Nan is going to spin that?

And the "George Bush is a war criminal" crowd how are they going to spin that now?

What is the empty suit regime going to call it? It has to be something that will not insult radical Islam.

#9 and us laying down a more effective counterterrorism platform that gets all the countries in the region pulling in the same direction.

Yeahbecause we all know what a success that Unity of Vision stuff has been so far.

#11 Conflict in Syria and Iraq a single challenge?

They were a little late waking up, getting the memo, and reading the memo.
