Stop making stuff up. You waste everyone's time with you lack of knowledge and misinformation. ISIS has been slowed, lost ground and having to be on defense instead of offense. If that comment is wrong, show the areas where ISIS has made meaningful gains recently.'Iraq is turning toward Russia in its war against ISIS in lieu of Obama's limited successes'
Obama has had 'limited success' against ISIS because he is and has NOT been truly fighting ISIS. Obama ran guns to them from Benghazi. He allowed them to flow into Iraq to take over much of the country our military had just recently liberated at great cost WHILE Obama's Intel had been churning our false Intel / Lies about his 'success' against ISIS since 2012!
Obama is still trying to recover from and 'make right' his disastrous 'Red Line' blunder in Syria. Obama actually believed he could throw down a 'Red Line' threat to Assad (with no intention of backing it up) and that Assad would have no other option but to back down because NO ONE would dare to challenge / cross 'Obama'! When Assad did just that, Obama had no clue what to do...so he cowardly back pedaled and tried to blame everyone else, declaring it was not HIS 'Red Line' but the WHOLE WORLD'S 'Red Line'. Assad gassed his own people, our allies witnessed the cowardice and decline of the US, and our enemies were emboldened.
Instead of fighting ISIS Obama has trained more Syrian Rebels to try to fight Assad. Several of those have converted to ISIS, bringing all of the training, weapons, and supplies Obama gave them with them. Putin seized the opportunity to step in to declare HE would take the fight to ISIS, moved planes, weapons, and troops into Syria, secured Assad's regime, and immediately began bombing the crap out of the remaining rebels Obama was and is still supporting. He then made China and Iran his allies, against ISIS and the US, and Russia and Iran are using the 'fighting ISIS' story to not only fight ISIS but to spread throughout the Middle East....
..and Obama is still focusing on saving the rebels and continuing to try to unseat Assad...who is WELL protected now. The whole world can see this. Iraq is trying to save their nation...so they have decided to 'make a deal with the devil' instead of taking their chances with an idiot who has other priorities.
Indeed. His pin pricks of blind aerial bombing and drone attacks that take out one or two individuals have failed to slow the ISIS advances.
Then why are the Iraqi's asking Russia for help?
Because they hate the US more since the US invaded, occupied and destroyed their country killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqis??
Not exactly. It's because Obama's little pricks and missile fired from drones that only take out one or two people are totally ineffective and they are seeing ISIS overrun their country. They have turned to Putin for some real military action.
Why are you bitching? Because now Russians will die in the ME instead of Americans?
WTF is wrong is with you?
