       American journalist beheaded

       I'm not a fan of going back into Iraq but I've come to the
       conclusion that we need to take it to them before they take it
       to us.

       A video released by ISIS shows the beheading of U.S. journalist
       James Foley and threatens the life of another American if
       President Barack Obama doesn't end military operations in Iraq.
       In the video posted Tuesday on YouTube, Foley is seen kneeling
       next to a man dressed in black. Foley reads a message,
       presumably scripted by his captors, that his "real killer'' is
       America.
       "I wish I had more time. I wish I could have the hope for
       freedom to see my family once again," he can be heard saying in
       the video.

       Ya think Iraq would do it, they have more folk in Syria, some in
       Lebanon, Jorden, Spain, northern Germany, etc.  Iraq just has
       the prettiest pictures.

       One would think so.  But the US trained Iraqi army turned tail
       and ran, leaving their weapons and armor behind.  The Kurds OTOH
       seem to be a real fighting force.  We need to supply them,  feed
       them intel and let them be the troops on the ground while we
       continue bombing.

       Interesting idea.

       Agreed. Let their blood be shed. Not one US boot should hit the
       ground. Let those ungrateful ba$tards fight their own bloody
       battles.
       We have starving and homeless people in our own country that are
       ignored, but we should help a warmongering country feed their
       lust for blood. Sickening.

       Interesting,  You defend a black man and blacks in Ferguson,
       then turn around and say that entire members of a country are
       "warmongering"?  ISIR have displaced Christian families from
       their homes and towns simply for being Christians.   Do you
       think this is acceptable behavior?  ISIL has beheaded an
       American journalist simply for being an American.  Do you think
       this is acceptable?  They claim there next stop in America.  Do
       you think we should just sit back and wait for them or kill them
       before they get here?

       Yup.  We cleared the way for them to build themselves a nice
       little country.  Instead they chose to fight religious battles
       among themselves, and will continue to do so the minute we turn
       our backs again.
       Either we stay there forever, or let them figure it out for
       themselves.
       If we have to go back again, it's going to be  a glass parking
       lot.
       Nice try, comparing Extremist Muslims to the Ferguson police
       Trolly.  Silly, but nice try.

       Matters not.  ISIS, or whatever they call themselves today is a
       Syrian based group.  They may be having the most luck in Iraq
       these days but Syria is the head of the snake, pretending it's
       an Iraq thing just distracts from the real issue.

       Straw man again.  My post had nothing to do with Muslim
       extremist.  It had everything to do with innocent people in a
       Muslim country being considered "war mongers".  Fact of the
       matter is it's a minority of the population that are war
       mongers.  That doesn't make it a "war mongering country".  Just
       like one guy shooting a black man, (possibly in self defense)
       makes the entire Feguson police department racist. Right?  But
       again, feel free to twist the meaning of my postings anytime.

       Obama says we need to stay the course in Iraq.  I never dreamed
       this is what he meant.
