    The fact of the matter is that ISIS began in Iraq/Syria. Had we left just a minimal footprint of forces in Iraq, and had we been more forceful in the removal of a$$ad, this whole nightmare going on over there would have never occurred (including the refugee crisis now sweeping Europe). And, it would have never spread to Libya and other parts of the African continent as it now has, since it would have been halted at its origins and roots.

    Even in the early days of the Syrian conflict, a$$ad served as the ‘poster child’ for the jihadist recruiters. ISIS was created in the vacuum of instability in Iraq/Syria, with the critical help of a$$ad’s remaining in power. If you want to blame anyone for the ‘creation of ISIS’, we should blame a$$ad and those feckless policy wonks that have permitted this deplorable situation to develop. For years now, you have been providing nothing but the equivalent of band aids to the a$$ad resistance.

    To those policy wonks who try to argue that [so-called] ‘regime change’ led to ISIS, if anything, they are more responsible for the development of ISIS than the other way around. It all started in Syria. Then it spread to Libya. Then it spread to other parts of the African continent.

    To those of you who look to Putin as being your ‘savior’ in this thing, all I can say is that your hopes couldn’t be more misdirected. Here’s a guy that has whined more about 2 Russian pilots being killed in Syria, than he has about a civilian jetliner being blown out of the sky with more than 200 of his own people by terrorists. What does that say of the character of this individual?

    Why did the spell their Caliph’s like that? To throw off the FBI and NSA?

    Anyone else think the multiple, recent school threats were written by a Pakistani hoaxer (terrorist)? No one outside of South Asia would use the verb “monger”. I’d look for people with Farook family values.

    Inspire is a problem because they are creating paint-by-numbers terrorism manuals. Luckily detonators are tricky and they keep screwing up. They will be releasing their “tried and tested” recipes for chemical weapons online soon.
