President Obama To Explain Why We're Gonna Need Moar Airstrikes In Iraq - Live Feed
While it is not clear what President Obama will discuss this morning in his daily dictation; we suspect, on the heels of yesterday's gruesome American journalist beheading video from ISIS, that he will explain why 'humanitarian' airstrikes in Iraq will continue until morale improves. Perhaps he will re-dip his toe back into the ongoing Ferguson riots - noting his right hand man Holder is on the case? Or finally, perhaps he will opine on the surge in US stocks recently as proof America is beating Putin back? As a reminder, the President is back in Martha's Vineyard...
As AP reports, US official says American planes, drones did nearly a dozen airstrikes in Iraq since Tuesday.

Provided they get a compliant stooge in place I predict they will help Iraq, otherise they will only help in so much as to preserve and protect their true prize, an independant kurdistan.
It stetches the bounds of my imagination. A virulent group of the very people they used to kill, maim, and spread nihilism in other countries crosses a border and gets bombed. DOn't get me wrong through, bomb away - it helps the dear people in Syria.
He really can't say destroy ISIS, atack ISIS. That's why thay made two names. Use ISIS when agree with the frachise ISIL otherwise
"They decapitated a few folks....."
"Some folks got wee weed up."
Looks like no beer meeting
What happened to:
"Osama Bin Laden is dead and Al Qaeda is on the run."
"This is the jay-vee."
"There is no US Military solution."
I guess we need to throw all of those on the pile with:
"If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor."
"There isn't even a smidgen of corruption."
"These are phony scandals."
"The 80's called... they want their foreign policy back."
"That would be a red line..."
Damn I'm tired of typing... that is enough for now.
Did you find those on a YouTube video?

I want everyone to know how relaxed Barack is here at the Vineyard. He seems like a different person. He swears that the cigarette smell I detected was an old smell from that nasty habit. His golf is about the same - but who is counting.
Signed, Michelle Obama
Things that make you go hmmm..
This is the second time in a row that Obama has addressed the country without wearing a tie and with his collar unbuttoned. You can tell a lot about a man by his appearance. And Obama is just more and more out of it.
'Perma-lie' is a devastating disease.....
"This is the second time in a row that Obama has addressed the country without wearing a tie and with his collar unbuttoned."
That's your presidential casual wear, designed to look cool, matter-of-fact, in control and close to the people.
Some even rolled up their shirt sleeves as soon as a camera was in sight.
And then there is his repeated use of the Imperial "we". "We" have decided. "We" will protect American personnel. Seems that HE is never personally responsible for anything.
And with no tie and an unbuttoned shirt he looks like he's taking a short break from the gold course. Oh wait....
At least his pants were zipped and up. What next for Mr. Casual?
I think an independent Kurdistan is a good idea. I'm not advocating the us of us troops or airstrikes to bring this about, just allowing it to happen. The country of Iraq is a fiction, it was never a country until western nations began redrawing the map. Now that we decreed that this country should exist, we have been attempting to mold it to our liking for many years. We should let the different people there decide for themselves. This would enivitably lead to several smaller, independent nations, one of which would be Kurdistan. Hard to imagine that could possibly be a worse situation than what we have now.
Let me answer for him, then we don't even have to hear his bullshit.

ISIS: The jihadist movement stamped “Made in America”The fact remains, however, that the US, the major European powers, and their regional allies all previously lent financial, military and political support to ISIS and similar groups, which have “Made in the USA” stamped all over them. They have, until now, played a significant part in Washington’s efforts to overthrow the regime of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria, as part of a broader effort to gain control of the region’s vast energy resources and transit routes.
The Western powers, flush with success after organising an Islamist insurgency in Benghazi in order to justify NATO’s overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya, thought they could use similar forces to overthrow Assad in Syria, whose regime draws its main base of support from the Alawite sect, a Shi’a offshoot, and Sunni businessmen.
For three years, the US, along with the Gulf states and Turkey, poured billions into “opposition” groups, supposedly to unnamed “moderates,” but in reality to Al Qaeda-linked Sunni groups such as al-Nusra and ISIS to spearhead a sectarian war. The US, Turkey and Jordan have operated a base in Jordan where US instructors trained dozens of ISIS members. In an article last year, the New York Times confirmed that the CIA assisted Arab governments and Turkey by airlifting weaponry to these groups in Jordan and Turkey. The Guardian reported last March that British and French instructors were also involved.

John McCain, Conductor of the "Arab Spring" and the Caliph
by Thierry MeyssanEveryone has noticed the contradiction of those who recently characterized the Islamic Emirate as "freedom fighters" in Syria and who are indignant today faced with its abuses in Iraq. But if that speech is incoherent in itself, it makes perfect sense in the strategic plan: the same individuals were to be presented as allies yesterday and must be as enemies today, even if they are still on orders from Washington. Thierry Meyssan reveals below US policy through the particular case of Senator John McCain, conductor of the "Arab Spring" and longtime partner of Caliph Ibrahim.

(Reuters) - German Development Minister Gerd Mueller accused Qatar on Wednesday of financing Islamic State militants who have seized wide areas of northern Iraq and have posted a video of a captive American journalist being beheaded.
"This kind of conflict, this kind of a crisis always has a history ... The ISIS troops, the weapons - these are lost sons, with some of them from Iraq," Mueller told German public broadcaster ZDF.
"You have to ask who is arming, who is financing ISIS troops. The keyword there is Qatar - and how do we deal with these people and states politically?" said Mueller, a member of the Christian Social Union (CSU), the center-right Bavarian sister party of Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats.
Mueller did not elaborate and presented no evidence of a Qatari link to Islamic State. A German government spokesman said he was checking whether Mueller's remarks reflected the official view of Berlin.
Officials at the Foreign Ministry of Qatar, a wealthy Gulf Arab state, did not immediately respond to requests for comment on his accusation.

Which ones are the bad guys again? I get so confused.
"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'isis' is."
Where is the banana (the one that the Russians projected on the embassy in Moscow) ?
F this F'er
He won't refer to his boo's as ISIS. He always says ISIL. Sunni fk!

Obama keeps calling him 'Jim' heh.
I think it's great how he's on a first name basis with everyone.
The Islamic State (IS)[4][6][48] (Arabic: ?????? ????????? ad-Dawlah al-?Isl?miyyah), formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS /?a?s?s/),[a] is a jihadist group, widely regarded as a terrorist organisation. In its self-proclaimed status as a caliphate, it claims religious authority over all Muslims across the world[49] and aspires to bring much of the Muslim-inhabited regions of the world under its direct political control
ISIS is MUSLIM.
kosher muslim... that is about as far as it goes.

what was THAT?!?
This Fukker would strike out in a tee ball game...with Holder pitching...
Which is appropriate, because Obama is a "catcher"
If drone strikes or 1000 pound bombs are what it takes to destroy IS or ISIS or ISIL or whatever they call themselves, then so fucking be it.
Let me splain why we needs to bomb these here folks. We have some munitions that are reaching their expiration; there are still some structures standin over there that we missed the last time we attempted to bomb that place back to the stone age.
No emotion whatsoever. Is he coked up? Drawing distance between ISIL/ISIS and islam. I hate this man as much as he hates me.
I had it on two websites and I still missed it. Did he say "folks"?
I have but one word after he spoke PUSSY. Guess they will strike here next Wow
PUSSY
all defensive stocks are up today... BA, LMT, RYN, etc.

Chrissakes, this guy sucks worse than Bush!
Each one sucks worse than the others. It's been that way since Carter and it's gonna stay that way until John Connor or Neo or someone comes to save the sheep. Oh yea, that only happens in movies. In real life, the sheep get slaughtered except for that one Jody Foster saves. Oh wait, that was a movie, too. F
EVERY. GOD. DAMNED. DAY. This idiot is on TV every god damned day!
James Foley is the Journalist dude?
WTF is a "humanitarian" air strike? They gonna drop sleeping bags on IS? END THE FED!
This is the United States of America. What the UN does with their military doesn't concern us unless they decide to attack the US.
Yeah? Well how about some ill tempered ferrets with frickin laser beams strapped to their heads? Legions of tiny Eric Holders coming at you? How about that?
Let the mission creep begin bitchez!
Iraq War III: THE FINAL SHOWDOWN

Why? Because if he doesn't the zionists will waste him and felow traveller Joe Biden will jump at the chance. No choice.
Riddle me this - Weren't we MUCH better off before we started middling in the Mid East? And if it's not getting better, isn't everything we've done up to this point a huge, gigantic waste? IT IS! Ah, the palliative air-strike...how many millions of tons of bombs have we dropped since Vietnam and WHAT do we have to show for it?...
