Obama Asks Congress to Authorize Military Action Against Islamic State

Well, it will arouse WE the People, if the govt can't censor the war. It will be made to look much more vicious to the People than we have seen before. We may have to resort to Camps like we did for Japanese Citizens.

But, more than that, the un-censored battle horror will incite the rest of the World. There could be uprisings.
We could see NATO in the game almost immediately.

Now, when does it pass into World War? No ever knows. You have to look back. And when you look back on the last world war, we almost lost it. I can point to 1/2 a dozen very near run things that would have changed the course of History. And that was a completely censored and controlled information flow.

When we get upset, we take action and the govt exists to do our will.

As much as it sickens me to side with Nobama, if anything this is way late.

Al Queda never had oil money and massive swathes of territory, if your War on Terror had ANY credibility Islamic State would be toast already.

They are a dire threat to the US in that they are the best funded and most organised terrorist organisation the world has ever seen.

If only you's had backed Assad against them initially instead of arming "Syrian rebels" (ie. Islamic State).
I don't feel one bit threatened.

It's these pithy, hollow repeated comments that keep my respect so high for you. You're perfectly willing to flaunt facts just to say something you deem witty. Most persons of conscience would have inner trouble with such things.

This, coupled with your frequent use of absolute statements of hyperbole really keep me admiring you.

Quality put down here. Originality, good use of sarcasm, no direct name calling.. very well done. We can all learn from this one.

I don't feel threatened but I'm a bit anxious sometimes about what idiocy we may do next. We are fighting people that we have armed, that we armed because they were fighting somebody we didn't want to appear to be fighting, if that doesn't symbolize our foreign policy since WWII I don't know what does.

It seems like we've been in a 50 year chess match with Russia and "the red line" comment was like sacrificing our queen. The chain of events that have followed and what may come is why I would feel threatened.

We will commit troops, no way out of that. This is going to be one big fucking mess, and we are helping our declared enemy, really, in that Assad, Hezbollah, and Iran are laughing their asses off, seeing as they will be fighting side by side with the USA. All that is needed now is for Israel to participate (where are they by the way?), and it is looking like it will be the weirdest war action in the history of the USA(thanks Bush).

Israel is in the background telling us all the scary stories of what the Islamic boogeyman will do to us next.

If the oil there dried up mañana- we'd pack up all of our shit in a week and never go back regardless of isis, or any other bag of asses.

While we don't have a real military presence in Africa where terrible things happen every minute, rest assured if they discover resources we want, we'll "do the right thing" as a nation and allow major corporations to exploit these folks for a while. All under the watch of the US Armed Forces.

Yep.

Sometimes I feel like we are not just sitting on the sidelines watching Africa burn, we are the puppeteers. I would not be surprised anyway. We can't even get our press to notice.
