I feel like Winnie the Pooh

Why oh why do my leaders insist on playing with fire?!?!?

Though the unfolding humanitarian crisis in Iraq may have left the Obama administration little choice but to act, the concern is the limited US aerial campaign has now stirred the hornet's nest without doing anything to decisively degrade ISIS.
And there could be one other unintended consequence. A rally-round-the-flag effect may now strengthen the ISIS position in the global jihadist movement, leading to even higher levels of fundraising and recruitment.
In recent months the group has faced fierce criticism from al Qaeda and others for its declaration of an Islamic caliphate and its brutal methods. But with the budding Islamic State now being bombarded by the "Crusaders," such criticisms may fade, at least for a time.

Have we learned nothing from every damn conflict? If the justification is oil, I will pay $20/gal to get my money and my fellow Americans out of that godforsakenland.

The best use of Winnie the Pooh is to soak him in gasoline, light him on fire and stuff him up Kim Jong-un's ASSHOLE!

Maybe we can send that 7 year old Jihadi to Kim Jong-un with a Winnie the Pooh to do just that. I have full faith in that little Jihadi.

He's a great kid!

He should be on America's Got Talent or one of those shows.

I'll vote for him. Most crazy kids can only kill cats, this one can take off the head of a breathing human. Wow. Such skill, such dedication, such focus.
I give him a "10"

You mean the oil companies would have to do real work to get paid. I don't see anything unfair in that. I don't like polluting oil companies, but let's be fair

So you are saying a 50 billion dollar war paid by taxpayers, 4000 american dead, and god only knows how many iraq dead to open up Iraq to BP and Exxon is a good deal? Especially since Iraq is so unstable BP and Exxon are going to be totally run out in the next 6 months anyway and the entire iraq war will have been a total waste. Nice, good thinking.

The best thing obummer could do at this point is buddy up to iran and let them wipe isis off the map, which they are ready and able to do. Keeping them from continuing on into isreal might be tough though.

Iraq is going to end up right where it was for 400 years under the ottoman empire before the brits came in 1918. Shia region, Sunni region, Kurdish region.
