All the savage opportunists from the gazillion other robber bands I mean islamist revolutionary organisations in the region must be flocking under their flag.

Quote from: Valmy on August 06, 2014, 09:09:15 AMAnyway agreed I look forward to all those 'not anti-Semites but humanitarians' marching against ISIS across Europe.

i think it has to do with heightened standard. no one cares when two ghetto thugs kill each other. people care more when an attorney or doctor commits murder

Um this is not a gang fight.  These are ancient civilizations being massacred.  Women and children.  But hey those kids are a bunch of ghetto thugs who deserve it eh?  For um...being there in the way or something.  So much for "humanitarians".

What are we suppose to do? Even those that are being slaughtered don't like us.

Did you get out there and show solidarity with Hamas?  I would appreciate at least a little solidarity for an entire people who are not even launching rockets at anybody.

No, I stand with Israel.

I don't know how you can give solidarity to a force that will turn on you the moment it feels safe to do so.

ISIS overran another Syrian army base.

The US should maybe think seriously about intervening on the side of Syria. It's clear that any "moderate" Syrians aren't going to have any success stuck between ISIS and Assad, but everyone sane is against ISIS.

Pretty sure he was talking about Hamas there.

On topic, ISIS has just captured the largest Christian town in Iraq.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

We should probably help the Yazidis by carving them a little country of their own. The western world needs to put his old empire pants on & carve out a dozen small countries out of Iraq.
