While Centcom reports continue to maintain “progress” in the war against ISIS, new reports from elsewhere are far less rosy, with the latest report from the RAND Corporation for the Pentagon not only concluding that the war is “stalemated,” but that the US strategy of trying to kill ISIS leaders with airstrikes is useless at any rate.
The report insisted that killing senior leadership members in ISIS would never be successful because the group has such a “deep bench” of potential leaders across the caliphate that it could readily replace anyone that the US managed to kill without seriously degrading their operations.
Theirs isn’t the only report taking a negative view of the current war situation, with a new Congressional report concluding that the US has “failed” to stop ISIS from recruiting fighters from abroad, and that despite intense efforts to stop the flow of fighters new recruits continue to pour into ISIS.
The White House announced some new sanctions against certain “ISIS facilitators” today, trying to stop the flow of money and fighters to the group, though there seems to be little reason to expect this latest round to be any more successful than the past efforts.
RAND corporation, on more I shadow government industry of that old boogy msm Military Industrial Complex. Our miltary elites are no more than paper pushing politicaloffice climbers; Alomg with a congress that is not ovetseeing but are recieving pay from that complex.who the hell knows just who is rumning this cluster fuc* called War on (EVER BODY) if the price is right you are economic collateral.l damage
The ISIS leaders killed are not innocent people, these barbarians are need to be killed and by all means necessary and in hand, having said that: the problem is no longer about this or that terrorists groups or their affiliated parties but rather where, how and why these groups pup up which needs to be addressed and seriously taken into consideration and act upon with all force. Until recently everyone had its own ideas about ISIS, for washing their bloody hand they come up with stories that these terrorists are from Saddam Hussein era and other nonsense, by know everyone beginning to realize the roots of the problem which is from what USG-European-Saudis-Wahhabism-Qatari been engaged in years of war in Middle East, the roots of these barbarians are from Yugoslavia, it's from Afghanistan, is from Iraq, Libya and Syria wars, the cause of it is expansion of Saudis-Wahabbism falsified and untrue beliefs, the other is the falsified and fake democracy which peoples all over been forced to believe. All that is about USG imperialism ideas which have forced the political system to be corrupted where as result the corrupted system is to cooperate with those whom have their falsified religious belief and those who have no idea what democracy is about, they simply cannot act upon either their belief or their democracy because they themselves are fake.
Now you see why it's so important to bog Putin down in this unwinnable war! And he's falling into this trap as he has fallen into all the others, bless his little heart!
Well first you have to actually try to kill them, not just try to fake it.
The Russians and likely the Chinese as well, are really really going to try to kill them. Want to bet how this works out?
I bet the Russians will kill them and win ……. they are not SUPPORTING ISIS.
Military INTELLIGENCE —- CIA-NSA-DHS —– The JERKS "did not see" ISIS until it controlled huge territory and we read about it in NEWSPAPAERS …… Amazing how American "intelligence" "can not see" miles long parades of their own equipment, complete with hundreds of flags to leave NO DOUBT, on CLEAR, DRY SUNNY days. Damn RIGHT ISIS is an ISISraeli front group.
They are stealing $BILLIONS from US and they cannot find their own BUTTS with a FLASHLIGHT.
Now they "could not see" MILLIONS of refugees/INVADERS>!>!>!> DO NOT feed me that Krap. Our "leaders" are Our ENEMIES,
YOUR standard of living is being destroyed by "your" representatives.
You were told Communists were a DEADLY ENEMY because
they were going to take your JOBS, your HOMES, your WAY of LIFE.
Washington created the Islamic State. Washington used these jihadists to overthrow Gaddafi in Libya and then sent them to overthrow Assad in Syria. The American neoconservatives, everyone of whom is allied with Zionist Israel, do not want any cohesive state in the Middle East capable of interfering with a “Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates.&rdquo ;www.paulcraigroberts.org/2015/09/23/russias-false-hopes-paul-craig-roberts/
Actually killing the leaders is a good place to start. And why are we calling this group a "state" or "caliphate" – surely there is more to either than what these guys have or are trying to do.
"The White House announced some new sanctions against certain “ISIS facilitators” today, trying to stop the flow of money and fighters to the group" ahaaahahahahahaha. I guess that means the white house is going to be sanctioned?
