Why Is Obama Waiting?

Members of Obama's own party are questioning his hesitancy of making massive air strikes to destroy the most notorious terror group of the 21st century ISIS or ISIL as President Obama refers to them.  Yes, the President is allowing limited air strikes in Iraq.  But, members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have said that ISIS cannot be destroyed without going after ISIS in Syria.  That presents several problems.  Do we take the chance that President al-Assad of Syria will resist American military action in his country? 

Iraq - Another Obama Failure

This will be short and sweet today.  I don't feel really well.  But, I had to comment on the deteriorating status of the Iraqi government to Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS),  an offshoot of Al Qaeda.  ISIS is marching through Iraq like Sherman marched through Atlanta with terrifying results.  Unlike General Sherman, the murderous ISIS is taking no prisoners.  They are murdering Iraqi soldiers by the thousands.  ISIS controls a large part of Syria and now hope to, at the very least, control northern Iraq.
