The Mistake is thinking that the Powers That Be In American Politics want ISIS destroyed, we'd just have to develop a new enemy to scare all of our right wiggers with, Radical Islamic terrorists have worked so well why ruin a good thing? Maybe some sort of communist uprising in South America next, but it's always more desirable to have more than a canal and a muddy river between you and the fighting.


I tend to think it's a bit more sinister than that. I mean, TRUMP et al are essentially executing the playbook from V for Vendetta right now.

that is ridiculous. there is no reason to presume that there is a grand conspiracy at hand.
in fact, it's weird that you'd be so willing to discount the personal agencies and agendas of these embodiments of evil.



You do realize that the US. started it's Air assault on ISIS in 2014? And by summer had flown over 6000 missions? now Don't tell me the Russians are that much better than we are. Or that they have that much better toys than we have because I know better. There is very good reason to extend this fighting. For one it's called discretionary spending it's the signed blank check that the military has as long as this "war on terror" goes on or as long as they can keep enough people frightened of the scary radical Islamic terrorists. That blank check is very important to defense contractors, their lobbyists, the Congressmen whom "talk" to the lobbyists and the military personal who get fat juicy consultant jobs upon retirement. that's a tip of the iceberg

thats more about a laissez-faire theory associated with some kind of negligence and a massive lack of responsability.

Well, yea. But that's due to the Americans having different goals than the Russians. When your goal is to do the most good for the largest amount of people, you end up looking like a pansy a lot of the time.

next to nothing reported in America on any of this.

at this point anonymous has already been more effective than any of these bombings have been.

If Duffman doesn't go to Europe ISIS wins?

Damn, we should start a crowdshare thing to get him there immediately. I have friends in Germany that will probably house him for a bit.

Bombs are always going off somewhere and it is never on the mainstream news. They're busy being fair and unbiased.
