Iraq's prime minister Nouri al-Maliki has asked the US to launch an air strike against Isis (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) militants but, according to reports, they have rejected any involvement.

The White House has been reluctant to offer military assistance to Iraq after president Obama withdrew the last of its forces in 2011. But as Sunni militants gained ground in the country, senior Iraqi leaders repeatedly called for the Obama administration to carry out air strike or send armed drones to hit them, according to the New York Times.



Obama has been pro-active in launching drone strikes against militants in Yemen and Pakistan but rebuffed any intervention in Iraq.
Obama is the reason Iraq is like this.. Soon the whole middle east will be empowered by radicals.

Obama had 4 Americans killed who were not on the battlefield yet he is wasting the effort we put into Iraq. He didn't mind bombing Syria or Libya but Iraq? Off limits? We shall see.

Please show us all where Shiites and Sunnis' weren't killing each other?
 
Looks like the fickle RWnuts are abandoning their recently acquired peacenik isolationist paleocon friends in the Rand Paul camp,

and marching off to war again!! Dick Cheney for president!!
 
I look at the situation like sending you children to college. I paid for my girl to attend college but it was up to her to make something of herself, that I could not do.

The American people gave the Iraqis a free country and outside invaders are trying to take that away. This is not a civil war it is a war on the Iraqi people. We have the moral responsibility to help them, much more so then we did bombing Serbia, Libya or Syria.

Unless Obama sends in the drones. Then they'll be peaceniks once again.

Republicans are so hypocritical it's hard to imagine that anyone takes them seriously.

Go back to your sandbox little girl. You act like you are 2
 
Oh the wittle minds of republicans. Blame the guy who got us OUT of an illegal occupation and not the guy who got us INTO it. Such morons.

1) There was no occupation, legal or otherwise.
2) Bush isn't the one who decided not to assist Maliki

I don't have enough information to determine whether we should get involved or not. But let's not pretend that Obama's actions arent at all responsible for anything.

so how much $$ are you willing to spend, how many American soldiers are you willing to sacrifice, and how long are you willing to stay ?
 
It's a temporary denial. Once Obama gets back from Vacation, he'll order airstrikes. Our Country has too much American blood & treasure invested in this current regime. We have no choice but to defend em. Here's your choices...Support the current Shiite Iranian-aligned Iraqi Government. Or the Sunni Al Qaeda-led Rebels. It's a worse choice than in Syria. But thems be the choices. Personally, i feel we need to stay out of it. But i'm sure i'm in the minority on that. One thing's for sure though, Iraq is a disastrous No-Win blunder for Americans.
