Agreed. The UNSC should take military action.

Let's hope the news stations get the right UNSC logo this time.

Hey, maybe the US should help the Syrian Government kill them all, since they're the only ones fighting back against ISIS? Oh wait, that'd require the US not supporting international terrorism.

Except the US has never supported ISIS. The Syrian government is fighting at least two rebellious groups at this point - ISIS and the more moderate rebellion. On top of this, the rebels are fighting ISIS as well, as ISIS is killing their families, destroying their towns, etc.

The US has supported the more moderate rebellion group, including funding them with weapons. We have never, and continue not to, support ISIS.

And before anyone tries to jump on this, no, the group we fund is not AQAP related. Our dealings with them in the 80's are not going to happen again.

Is the article a repeat of of the UN Iraqi overseer lying about what is going down in the country?

This crisis is creating a very strange alliance. Currently we're looking at the US, Russia, and Iran standing shoulder to shoulder to take a stand against ISIS.

Iraq War was justified. Saddam Hussein was the man who said his only mistake was invading Kuwait before he had made the nuclear weapon. He bought Uranium from Niger, and had weapon stockpiles which violated two UN security resolutions and the ceasefire agreement between Iraq and Kuwait from 1991.

You misunderstand. I agree with our decision to go into Iraq. What I was talking about was that the UN secretary for Iraq has been caught inventing horror stories in order to rile up sentiment for an intervention with fighting ISIS. Since that story broke I've been unable to trust any news coming out of Iraq.

We'll shit. The US apparently just blew up the artillery ISIS was using to shell the Kurdish capital.

it's about time we admitted we aren't at war with Terror, but at war with Islam. Fuck 'em.

Why the fuck does everyone except America to do it? Why doesn't Europe get off it's collective asses and do something about it.

We do actually, although it's a fair point that most of the recent interventions have been US led but not all of them. Take Mali for example, the French have been thrashing boko haram there for fucking with one of their old colonies.

(I might have some of the details on that wrong but I'm a little tired so eh.)

The UK would probably be more proactive if the public's view of more intervention was that of 'Are you having a fucking giggle there mate?' Hell, even Parliament told the PM to go fuck himself over Syria. We stuck our collective dicks in the wrong mess and it's left a very unpleasant legacy ._.

Still waiting for Kiyo to somehow justify what ISIS is doing.

He would if he wasn't a moderator for this site.
