President Obama Warns Iraq Situation "Is A Long-Term Project... Won't Be Solved In Weeks"
Just before he headed off to Martha's Vineyard for another vacation, President Obama explained the situation in Iraq (standing in front of the impressive Presidential helicopter) careful to use the phrase 'men, women, and children' numerous times. He called on Iraqis to unite against militants (subtley suggesting the reason the Iraq military ran away was because of a dis-united government). Crucially, he noted Iraq's Islamic State "problem will not be solved in weeks."

- *OBAMA DECLINES TO GIVE TIMETABLE ON LENGTH OF MISSION
- *OBAMA CALLS ON IRAQIS TO UNITE AGAINST MILITANTS
- *OBAMA SAYS `NEXT STEP' IS SAFE PASSAGE FOR REFUGEES
- *OBAMA REITERATES `NO U.S. COMBAT TROOPS IN IRAQ AGAIN'

- *OBAMA SAYS NO U.S. TROOPS LEFT IN IRAQ BECAUSE GOVT DIDN'T WANT
- *OBAMA SAYS `BOGUS' TO SAY LACK OF U.S. TROOPS CAUSED CRISIS
President Barack Obama says U.S. airstrikes in Iraq have succeeded in destroying arms and equipment that could have been used against the Kurdish capital of Irbil.
He says humanitarian efforts continue to airdrop food and water to persecuted religious minorities stranded on a mountaintop, and he says planning is underway for how to get them down.
Obama wouldn't give a timetable for how long the U.S. military involvement would last, saying it depends on Iraqi political efforts.
He says it won't be weeks but will take some time.
Obama also says the advance of the Islamic State forces was more rapid than anticipated.
Obama made his comments on the South Lawn of the White House Saturday, just before boarding Marine One for his summer vacation in Massachusetts.

Well, once this is all resolved, Iraqis will likely throw flowers at us, and probably give us their ramped-up oil production for free, just out of gratitude.
Relax everyone. It's just a series of one day bombings...a long series it would appear.
Mission Accomplished
Afghanistan...Iraq...Syria...Ukraine
Nahhhhh...........not even close yet......so many wars to go and so little time.......we will have many more incursions/wars to save humanity before we are finished........you see, a global banker can never sleep.
The world has jumped the shark. Fuck. I think I'm going to go drink some coffee and water my corn.
Long term project? Hmm, how many children have to be beheaded before it becomes a short-term imperative?
It's funny to hear president douche hole talk like he knows anything about military strategy! He's a flippin' community organizer for fuck's sake.
America trained Isis as a rationale to get back into Iraq so as to stop the Iran Iraq Syria pipeline.
Obama is a monkey with a hand grenade or an AK47

If you think things are "difficult" now, Barry's rule during 2015 & 2016 may indeed become frightening.
I want to point out that, 13 years ago when the US was ginning up the run into the ME / Afghanistan / Iraq, it was only the libertarians who were saying "graveyard of empires".
I was at the F15 march in Seattle; I beg to differ.
Barry's rule during 2015 & 2016 may indeed become frightening.
Barry isn't going to last until the end of Q1 2015... The fix is in...
I'll bet you a roll of silver maples he will continue to wreak havoc until Shillery starts its first day.
Sooooooo.... not mission accomplished ???? ....... again ?????
I can hear Gomer Pile sayin' ....surprise , surprise , surprise !!!!!!!!
Who woulda' thunk it ?
so he is saying on or about.....come on real estate guys you know what this means...
How long before the last killing field was finally "solved"?
In your dreams
if you believe all the anti-war demonstrators
throughout the globe were "libertarians".
the then French government was "libertarian",
all those who spoke out and wrote articles,
all those leftists, rightists, religious leaders, socialists and legal scholars were all
actually closet "libertarians".
Sorry to burst your self-righteous bubble.
Fuck this shit I am going on vacation
I had already folded up my Eye-Rack map and put it in the bottom drawer when Barry said he was "pulling out all troops." Now, I have to go dig it out again......
War never ends.
"Come on baby, I promise I'll pull out in time."
Yes, Iraq can be as peaceful as Israel given enough time and money from the US. Or let's say Egypt, or Libya, or the work we have done in the former CIS Countries. "Please just stay calm and give us your full support, we are working on it..."
Who in the fuck still sits around and waddles in this bullshit? This is a plan or you are a clown.
President Obama was elected on the EXPLICIT PROMISE that he would "BRING THE TROOPS HOME IN HIS FIRST YEAR OF OFFICE." It was his PROMISE. This must be so humiliating for him. He must be FORGETFUL. He will go down in history as "The President Who Could Not Keep His Word" and "The President Who Couldn't Command His Troops." No wonder his face is red. Maybe he can find inspiration at Martha's Vineyard. It's amazing what you find when you put your head in a hole.
Re: "persecuted religious minorities stranded on a mountaintop, and he says planning is underway for how to get them down." <-- THERE'S A SKI LIFT. USE IT.
lying is tough and you need frequent vacations to work up enough nerve to get up and do it again.
.
Like past presidents, he's doing what he is told. He's a good speaker, so he's doing it better than the previous one.
Half way over the whale El Vaq.
Shark is so 20th century.
Whale, shark, I see only little difference from a practical standpoint when it comes to jumping them. Whales are bigger, but sharks have sharp teeth.
BTW, my corn is now watered and I have coffee in my cup. Here's to all of my Iranian allies/enemies, Syrian allies/enemies, ISIS allies/enemies and Russian allies/enemies*! What a fucking quagmire.
(*Of course, ally or enemy depends on what country they're operating in.)

duh... winning
Let's bomb Iraq everyday to get our military industry going.
Yes, they will re-greet us as re-liberators! It will be a cake walk and pay for itself, too!
My last pay check was $9500 working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do... http://goo.gl/bhiamE
And now our Glorious leader goes back to Maine on holiday to play golf and eat Cheetohs in bed.
What a loser.
whats wrong with eating cheetos in bed, just saying
would you eat John Boener?
'Cheetos' being the secret service's code name for Reggie.
Bombing Iraq is now part of American deep tradition.
Not bombing Iraq would give the impression that American culture has no meaning.
Without a cultural bedrock you have nothing.
One must keep ones balance.

Dork,
Well said!
Humans are creatures of habit.
And some of the threads here are proof of that… not that I need to remind you.
mealy mouthed son of a bitch. every other word out of his mouth was about kissing Saudi Ass for those who didn't catch that undertone.
"careful to use the phrase 'men, women, and children' numerous times. "
Why not just call them "folks"? Its shorter.
Ha! I should be a speechwriter.
Keep a lid on problems.
WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING IDIOT !!!!
Like all previous administrations, blissfully ignorant of the tribal hatred contained within the lines drawn up by Great Britain as they carved up the old Ottoman Empire.
It would be easier to reincarnate Saddam Hussain than fix this hornets nest.
Maybe give Syria and Iraq back to Turkey.
They are not trying to fix, but rather to inflame. Misson accomplished.
Kayman,
Does the "Military Industrial Complex" care for the ignorant Americans?
Do US corporations care about the American worker?
C'mon. Tell me us something that we don't know.
The reason Sunnis are killing Shia is because of Christians. Damon Allah is a mean mother fucker
And, how about you?
Until the tribe is gone, the world will be in chaos.
What does this slogan mean?
Well, I guess that clears everything up. Thanks and have a great vacation!!
flies have conquer the flypaper again
...Probably used this phrase in discussions about his job approval data.
At least he's honest about it.
there are significant differences
between:
will not be solved in weeks
and
can not be solved in weeks
"problem will not be solved in weeks."
Why of course not, no money, resources or lives to be stolen otherwise.....
A NEW AXIOM FOR EMPIRE
borrowed from the knick-knack shop
and now applied to nations and peoples.
from "spreading democracy"
to "you break it, you own it".
How convenient,
all one has to do, under any pretext,
is invade, bomb, and otherwise destroy
whatever catches one's eye,
and presto!
One owns it !
"It" meaning a nation and its inhabitants, who are now all just another "it".
And by owning, we mean that "it" is our property, each and every "it",
to do with it whatever we want.
We will treat it kindly, the oil and minerals that is.
We may even privatize (over to us) what we like,
to take special long-term care of what we did not break.
The people, well, that's different.
By invading and causing ruin, "we gave them a chance"
So says our esteemed president, a Nobel prize winner, no less.
Thus, when we don't like what "it" became with that "chance",
why that's all the more right to bomb it over again, and again.
After all, we broke them, we own them.
Or so the mantra of empire informs us.
We'll merely glue it back together so we can break it again. Look at how well its worked so far.
If you're the MIC/Banking elite, it has worked marvelously!
MIC is laughing all the way to the bank. Order up some more $2m bombs Mr Prez. Ms Chairyellen can print up the dosh for you and some poor 20yr old who couldn't find a job in your Potemkin economy will load up them up on the planes. Time for a well deserved round of golf, sir.
There's another divide that is stoking the flames for CWII. We've got some in-laws that work for the MIC and man are they out to lunch. Well, one of them does, as the MIC/GOV salary allows for a nice lifestyle on one paycheck.
He worked for some MIC contractor, got his retirement, and came back as a consultant. I don't think anybody has the slightest idea what he does, but he sure makes a ton of money. Incidentally, they both love Obama and truly believe that the world is just humming along great; as always. Between doing all this important work, that nobody can define, they bop around the world on fun vacations.
They don't understand why people are upset.
So add the gov's and the gov-not's to the fire. I can honestly say that although I don't know them very well, I don't like them and it pisses me off.
Must be a drag to have active enemies as family members. They would turn you over to the authorities in a millisecond.
won't be solved till this idiot leaves office!
Yes, he is the problem.
Obama is a problem, but shock and awe was the problem. Does anyone think Saddam couldn't handle this dust up ?
A) What makes you think he's leaving?
B) As if the next idiot will be any better than any of the previous Tyrants of the Dem0ckracy?
This won't be solved until humans step away from The State.
This all must be the actions of one man?
Its a whole crew of retards...not just the mullato one.
RIPS
Bingo!
Government is the problem, not the solution.
"problem will not be solved in weeks."

So are you saying we need to send in the Black & Tans to sort out ISIS ?
I think they are all dead.
War is a racket, and all wars are bankers wars.
Here's an idea for you, lets kill all the bankers first.
@Churchill
There was I thinking Blackwater and the Black & Tans were one of the same outfit...............
Why not kill the bankers ?
Well you must get past the armed forces first.
With the arrival of the Armistice, in November 1918, it was time to begin the withdrawl of the United States Navy from Cork. By May 1919, the Naval Hospital huts had been dismantled, the Aghada base buildings were being auctioned off. The stores on the seafront were to go. All the ships had departed, apart from Corsair, the yacht of the billionaire J.P. Morgan, which had taken over from USS Melville as the base for the Officer Commanding. By June even the Corsair was gone

Dork,
You said: "The great war to manage global scarcity continues into infinity.......
Is there anything else to be said?
To be surprised of it?

Goodness. Get an education. Neocons are in the back pocket of companies like banks just as BO is. Red pill blue pill Apparently you swalled the red one.
He's obviously confused.
I think he took both pills!
And how's that?
What makes bank lobby so strong? Fast computers?
The lobby that has military backing wins.
Now military hates bank lobby.

listen haters.
ge has 100s of thousands of tons of nuclear waste the storage of which is costing billions.
this is having a direct impact on shareholder value.
iraq and syria and soon turkey are a vital means for relocation of this material.
we have concluded that the missile and bombing methods are the cheapest best way of delivering this material.
general electric would like to thank the soon to be dead peoples of these ancient kingdoms .
by allowing us to bomb and missile transport depleted uranium to these theatres you are helping release shareholder value.
thank you
it really is a win win we free up storage space we sell the isotopes to the pentagram for top dollar.
perfect.
"President Obama Has Ended the War in Iraq" Yep says so right here on the shitehouse.gov page http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/10/21/president-obama-has-ended-war-...
Accomplishing yet anothe signature win for the democrat team.
Take a look at the photo of this little boy about to be executed by the pisslamics, and think of your own son or daughter facing this as their last moments on earth. Fuck
http://images.catholic.org/ins_news/2014081646.jpg
That was the Third Iraq War. This is the Fourth. After that, "another" Afghan war.
This is what passes for policy nowadays. Seriously, they cannot AND DO NOT WANT TO imagine any other way to "grow" America's "economy." The policy is pathological because the individuals who formulate it are pathological.
why USA are bombing it's own troops?
..
Has anyone actually seen the bomb targets? I'm sure the bombs did not do any harms to those ISIS guys.The photos shown in the MSM are showing just a smoke from 30 miles far spot. This is supposed to be a joke?
Btw, it's like the rockets from Palestine falling on Israelis heads... no one has seen them but someone told there were some... so we must bomb them back.
If it's on TV it must be true. EOM!
...because psychopaths just don't give a fuck
Damn ISIS zealots
forcing people to "convert to their way or die".
Good thing we are not like that
...
cuz we got freedom fries and freedom bombs
(Now, who doesn't appreciate that?)
Didn't Obama and Kerry just fund ISIS in Syria? The middleeast policy is all screwed up.
screwed up?
- not if the intention is to generate "opportunities" by creating chaos
I read a good comment yesterday. To paraphrase, "if you're going to be America's bitch, you'd better be ready to pay the price." It would serve our militants well to read the fine print before signing up with the good old USSA.

The fine print was probably printed using invisible ink!

"Pottery Barn rules apply" ~ Colon Powell
"Not many boots on the ground" ~ Tar Baby
Get the fuck out of Iraq. Whoever rules that hell hole deserves it.
The saying "if you break it you buy it" can be misleading. It is often unenforceable, in some cases it is not even practical. In the case of foreign policy, accepting such a notion can cause America to be far less likely to step in where needed, or cause us to undertake the costly and unrealistic job of nation building. In real life such rules often do not hold true.
In fact the real Pottery Barn has no such rule, and is a bit weary of being associated with the remark that is often quoted and attributed to them in newspaper and television reports. "This is very, very far from a policy of ours," said Leigh Oshirak, public relations director for the brand, owned by Williams-Sonoma Inc. of San Francisco. "In the rare instance that something is broken in the store, it's written off as a loss." More on this subject in the article below.
http://brucewilds.blogspot.com/2013/05/you-break-it-you-buy-it.html
That's because Pottery Barn crap is already garbage before it breaks
So I can juggle shit in the store like Eddie Murphy juggled vases in Trading Places?

Please stop using ZH to pimp your blog.
Can't do that, there's a lot of gooey black stuff under there!
The military works for globalists headquartered somewhere in Europe. There is no US military that exists today. That is propaganda. The globalists are building up IS ISIS or whatever analogy you want to make to the president of Washington D.C.'s nebulous name. Everything globalist is intentionally vague. It is not easy to conquer the world so nobody can really know what is going on except the ones at command and control. The US is currently under heavy attack as is the Mid East and Africa. European and US finances and other national financial systems have been combined to pay for the conquest. A tiny elite group exists at the center of the globalist structure. They are prepared to level down all the way underground to the point of world destruction if it should come to that.
The rest of us are doomed.
yes, all of it, this goes way behind just the US involvment, much bigger picture.
As stated before, old money in Europe, and that Includes the vatican, biggest shareholder of the major US and English banks.
Did Obama talk about how we should of seen this coming and moved to stop it from developing? Things have deteriorated to the point that Americans are using every opportunity to take their eyes off what is happening in Iraq, the country has become a train wreck and is rapidly morphing into a failed State.
It is often unwise to take your eyes off a problem for long because when you look back you might find that things have gone horribly wrong, this is the case in Iraq and Syria. The lyrics from a song "slip sliding away" come to mind as a way to describe the massive investment made in Iraq by America. Recently a group called ISIS shocked much of the world by swiftly capturing Mosul in an offensive that allowed the group to take control of major parts of northern and western Iraq. On June 29, 2014 the Islamist militants declared an Islamic "caliphate" in an area straddling Iraq and Syria. More on this subject in the article below.
http://brucewilds.blogspot.com/2014/08/islamic-state-of-iraq-and-levant....
Your description of US involvement in Iraq as an "investment"
which should not be allowed to "slip away"
is a delusion created by an Orwellian misuse of language.
The invasion was a crime based on lies, to pursue geo-political goals.
The occupation devastated their society and economy.
It was never about helping Iraqis. It still is not.
The self-serving geo-political US goals have not changed.
Renewed intervention will only prolong and compound Iraqi miseries.
Renewed intervention will only increase the economic, moral,
and political costs to the average US citizen.
The only real beneficiaries of renewed intervention and MIC largesse will be corrupt Mideast despots and kingdoms, and an elite cabal of tycoons and militarists.
Cluster...
i guess Obama is going back to Martha's Vineyard to think about his next sports analogy. In his previous one he said ISIL was a "JV" team. What a douchebag.
The GWOT is like a Diamond.
Forever.
Just before he headed off to Martha's Vineyard for another vacation, President Obama explained the situation in Iraq (standing in front of the impressive Presidential helicopter)
Yes he does love his vacations and his helicopter ! I have become annoyed recently as to why Obama, many governors, and the like often have chosen to have a slew of people behind them when they talk. This does little to underline their message or lies.
Throw more money into the mideast black hole and get more vendettas against the US going,.
Whatever happen to all those bags of US cash Iraq was given?
When will the US ever learn to stop poking it's nose into other country's business?
The 'US' will do whatever he's told to do by the bankers and MIC. For now, turn on the TV and remain scared until you're told 'it's safe now'
Double speak? WTF - I guess he covered all the bases.
Crucially, he noted Iraq's Islamic State "problem will not be solved in weeks."
He says it won't be weeks but will take some time.
Unless when he says - will not be solved in weeks he means it will take YEARS
and when he says - won't be weeks he also means it will be YEARS
If I was an Iraqi I'd be absolutely thrilled to hear Obummer referring to my nation as a "project".
Fucking worthless cunt.
Until people globally recognize the banker elite variable behind these wars, the world citizenry will be fooled time and time again with endless wars.
WTF!
They're telling me the Emperor has been suckcesspool
Obama: Iraq airstrikes have been successfulThe president says the U.S. offensive has accomplished part of its mission by destroying militant arms and equipment. No timetable given »
AP reports:
The United States warned Russia on Friday that any further intervention in Ukraine, including under the pretense of delivering humanitarian aid, would be viewed as "an invasion of Ukraine."
The US knows how to spot a pretense of "humanitarian aid" from miles away.
Is he the president or a remodeling contractor?
When asked how many rounds of golf he expects to complete before the Iraq problem is solved, the president responded "Is that an 18-hole or executive course?"
Upon responding "What? I don't know that.", the reporter was immediately jettisoned from his seat and into the hands of secret service agents.
On follow-up, when asked "How do you know so much about golf?", Mr. Obama responded "Well, you have to know these things when you're a president you know."
One can lead or follow at different times in his life. These are a matter of skill, knowledge or circumstances.
OR - one can be perpetually entitled to the teflon applied to him for non accountability.
Stop saying President Obama. This 'person' is none other than Placeman Obama. I am ashamed to be an American citizen, when this thing is supposedly the face of what is The United States of America.
like always, its simply BS to grease the military industrial complex at the expense of the American people. Your taxes are financing this.
"for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples."

What the fuck is all that?
rough pictures yes, but no evidence of any sort. Hooray for a catholic website beating the wardrum as well. But why am i surprised?
The way I figure it, the west (where i live) 100% deserves the history-making beatdown thats rapidly coming our way.
Are we now to have a dueling pictures war
with tortured victims, bombed and droned Afghan Iraqi and Pakistani babies?
Are photos of Gaza, Syria, Ukraine with injured and dead OK to show?
Vietnam, Haiti, Honduras, ... Detroit ?
You are missing the point that doubling down on a wrong-headed interventionist policy will only prolong and compound the problems, animosities, blowback, and suffering.
It is wrong for the ulterior and base reasons intervention is really done, and which you do not seem to comprehend, instead believing the emotionalist propaganda.
It is wrong because it will only really benefit Mideast despots, and enrich and empower an elite who benefit from MIC largesse, and who will further deprive us of our domestic liberty.
"As American as mom, apple pie, and endless war."
Smells more like CIA and Massod than ever. A few fringe personnel were sacrificed, probably less than we are led to believe. The US and Israel get just what they wanted. US forces back in Iraq, moving further towards dividing the country, the Kurds becoming more contained and the leadership of Iraq foolish enough to beg their executioner to reenter their home.
Still looks like ISIS is a force funded and mostly directed by the CIA (not completely). Of course few of the ISIS fighters know that, and some who get out of hand will be used a targets to be killed and thus provide greater cover for the CIA operation.
But there is the possibility of control of ISIS being taken over from within by those who are not controled by the CIA. I do not think SA is in their sights but if SA strays then ISIS can be used to take their oil fields.
When you see ISIS take out high political targets in Israel or when ISIS focuses it's jihad propaganda at Israel and calls for all to attack Israel everywhere in the world then you can start to believe that ISIS is self directed.
Putin the great chess player? Here was a chance for him to gain influence by attacking ISIS in an effective way. Or did Putin know that ISIS had missles that could take down too many of his aircraft, missles that will not be used on US planes?
I'm still open to having my mind changed on this but for now ISIS is still CIA/Massod to me.
does he even know who he's fighting? i heard him say ISOL & ISIA-what a moron1
The only reason that ISIS got into Iraq was because their PM Maliki invited them in while telling his army to stand down, drop their weapons and run for the hills. Why you may ask? Because Maliki wanted a third term as PM. According to the Iraqi Constitution the PM can have only two consecutive terms and the only way around that little problem was to invite in ISIS and then declare emergency war powers. It didn't work out as he had planned because he needed the approval of the Parliament to enact those powers and they said NO!
Maliki painted himself into a corner and after the April voting period was over, Maliki had lost, then he created the ISIS event. As of tomorrow, the Leader of the Parliament, and the newly elected president of the Republic of Iraq will call a Sunday meeting to elect and seat a new PM who will either be Al-Mahadi or Jafarri. This is why Obama agreed to send in the big guns. Because he wouldn't until the new government of Iraq was in place, and if you listened closely to his presser yesterday he clearly stated that Iraq now has a stable government in place. In fact the new PM was picked this past Wednesday, but hasn't been announced yet.
This information came directly from boots on the ground in Iraq who know the real story as well as those in government. When it comes to the MSM in the US, look elswhere for the truth, because your sure not getting here at home.
Startin' to feel a bit like Libya. Coudld Irbil/Erbil be a worse analog to Benghazi?
The first casualty of any war, is always the truth.
The goal is endless proxy wars. The bombings every few months will make resupply necessary and keep the war monies flowing into the United States.
I still don't believe you..

that's a hell of a pivot from this is just a bunch of jv terrorist wannabes. This guy is such an ass clown. How can a country be reduced to such nonsense in it's leadership. We have elected a one trick pony completely devoid of the mature critical thinking skills one needs to lead a country. Just go away Barry O.
Never understood the Shiite / Sunni issue at anything other than an intellectual level which is why they failed and will continue to fail, sending John Kerry to sing Kum ba yah is not going to cut it.
Iraq is a project.
Barry is a cartoon.
Using their brutality is easier to justify a war than say WMD...
Presto! Continual war for the war profiteer$
