speaking of doing goats; I used to patronize a lunch truck in La Paz, B.C., (baja california, not british columbia), that had big pots of goat stew in the back on gas burners and a crew to make change and wash your plate in the big washing vat, before taking out another one and swiping it with a rag to fill it up again for another customer, (best not to look too closely at this operation); but it was absolutely delicious stew. It had onions and Cilantro and peppers in it, of course; but basically, it was just goat bits. The funny thing about it was the complete disdain the cook had for any sort of butchering knowledge; he'd just flail away at the carcass until the pieces were judged to be small enough and then chuck them in one of the big pots. One day I got a whole Molar, (a tooth), that had some pretty advanced decay in it. On another occasion I got an eyeball. It was sort of a lucky dip lunch adventure. the butchering was done with an ordinary wooden handled ranchers machete; that was very sharp. Little pieces of goat would fly around his head like a bloody miasma when he got a good head of steam up; and flecks of bone and so forth. Oh, this came with Tortilla's too, of course. it really was quite good.

It was always the Islamic state.  Their whole philosphy is that they don't adhere to any nation states.  They have been waving the same flag since the initial invasion of Iraq, which btw they didn't mind seeing that Iraq was secular under Saddam.

 

These bad boys don't give a fuck. Everything is the will of Allah.  They will pound sand with a smile on their face.  World domination or bust, the fact that the very people fighting them are attempting the same thing is not a concern to them. If anything it is flattering.

"Pound sand" is an euphamism for wasting time.   When you pound the sand with your fists, you do nothing more than move the sand around, which will later be moved again by the wind, etc.   It's an effort without a productive outcome.

"The War of Jenkins' Ear (known as Guerra del Asiento in Spain) was a conflict between Great Britain and Spain that lasted from 1739 to 1748, with major operations largely ended by 1742. Its unusual name, coined by Thomas Carlyle in 1858,[5] refers to an ear severed from Robert Jenkins, captain of a British merchant ship. The severed ear was subsequently exhibited before the British Parliament. The tale of the ear's separation from Jenkins, following the boarding of his vessel by Spanish coast guards in 1731, provided the impetus to war against the Spanish Empire, ostensibly to encourage the Spanish not to renege on the lucrative asiento contract (permission to sell slaves in Spanish America).[6]"

How things get out of hand?

Muslims (Jihadist?) and Jews (Zionist?) are similar in many ways and slightly different in others, but from the Christian hierarchy with their Pope, there is no comparison!?!

Quran & Sharia and the Talmud & Torah go hand-n-hand... whereas, the Bible & Ten Commandments are open-ended on a Imperalist`Infallible Pontiff's interpretation, somehow set in stone?!?

It has been a century-plus since the Middle-Eastern countries joined the NWO? Remember they were just simple herdsman until oil was discovered and the advent of the late 19th century automobile in Europe. Somehow it was no different in the USSA in the early and mid 19th century when digging wells for water turned-up crude and were buried like shit-waste. Funny how things changed within a century and a half years or so?

The Ottoman Empire was (although it was the 'Sick-Man Empire of the Middle-Eastern Territories,... China's Qing Dynasty was also the Sick-Man in Asia simultaneously at approximately the same tyme, but India was the British Empire's Golden Goose!, and geography explains alot when trade is (Ottoman Empire and how the Turks were tricked into joining the premature axis of evil that England wasted no-tyme on exploiting) involved.

Note: Islam provided a system of government as well as faith. The Caliph, or deputy of the Prophet, was the ruler and the Sharia, or Holy Law, was its guiding code. Islam was adopted by the Ottoman Turks who in the 14th century overran Anatonia, and so the Otoman (Dynasty) Empire were to be the Caliph caretaker until abolished on March 3, 1924 (90 yeras ago?). 

The French and English were given 'Capitulations' by the Sultan and by the mid to late 19th century the Ottoman Dynasty was weakened and near its ultimate overthrow by the French or British, and only Germany seem'd an ally in despair!?!

So... In summary, as the cartoon depicts is very , very, real when all hope seems lost? The Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) slaughtering their own, giving their people nothing back but despair with the Europeans and USSA full-throttle surpressing their very existence!, with no chance of a life. Saudi Arabia's Shiekhs are in the thousands and pay no taxes on land(prime land) and share in the oil-revenues while the people live under the thumb of a modern-day Hitler!!!, supported by the USSA, Britain and France. Same ole, same ole BS!

As Edward Griffin has said for a number of years and explained in his excellent video "Left,Right paradigm", we are lead to believe that there's an ideological difference between all of these warring groups and factions that make up global powers and empires. But there isn't. The wars are not about ideologies and different models of running the world, but simply about which gang is to be "top dog".

That explains many observations in recent years that the West spent decades trying to destroy the USSR & communism, only to adopt it ourselves immediately afterwards: "We Have Become What We Spent Years Destroying" etc.

Truth is that there simply are not many different totalitarian ideologies available, only variations in nuance (ie: which nail of the coffin to bang in next). And whatever model the wannabe despots peddle to deceive the masses, once in power and control, they quickly revert to type and adopt the standard MO. The current mess with ISIS is peddled as Islamic but in truth Islam is just the façade; it's really just another gang of murderous thugs with a totalitarian agenda.

They're using the wrong "ammo": there needs to be a tactical nuke on the missile, that way you vaporize the first jihadi and the three that would take his place. You also kill his woman (breeder of next gen jihadi's) and kids-tomorrow's jihadi. War is indeed hell.
