ISIS Now Have Kurds in Cages, Paraded Thru Iraq

[Osomir]

You have to be blind to believe that. Since 2009, at least 11 additional conflicts have started

and today Kerry said the world is so much safer today than any time in human history....

It is.

Not blind at all, tell me how any of those 11 conflicts are as bad as say WWII?

 

[AceRothstein]

Does ISIS have an unlimited supply of cages? Who is providing them with all of these cages?

Right. Global terrorism is up, but state conflict is down (if not on a year to year basis then in terms of time period averages); and state conflict tends to be far more bloody than global terrorism. Al Qaeda for example can't claim nearly as many lives as WWII did, or even Russia's own internal purges did. Even ISIS isn't as devastating as the conflict in the DR Congo from the 90s (yet) and ISIS even gets to double dip as part of global terror AND as part of state conflict. Even the entire civil war in Syria right now is about on par with what we saw in the Algerian civil war only a couple of decades ago.

Simply having a more unified and stable Europe and the collapse of the Soviet Union (and thus the collapse of the threat of a nuclear war) has made the world safer in and of itself.

You do forget these countries, many are modernized, and I am sure have manufacturing capabilities. As someone else stated, they could even be made in a school workshop. And the most cages in video shot that I have seen at any one time is around 20, some able to hold multiples.
Just as they are selling oil blackmarket, I would no doubt believe others are selling to them the same way. I also understand they ate the lions at the Damascus zoo. I would imagine there are cages there they could confiscate. I would suspect there are other zoos around with cages as well. These extremists have a full working economy!

Does ISIS have an unlimited supply of cages? Who is providing them with all of these cages?

Gotta keep hyping up the irrational fear of the bogey man so people continue to gleefully hand over their essential liberties for some false sense of security by an over-reaching government.

Once again you hear what was not said. He didn't say state. Even with that, how many states have been infiltrated? And at least with state you know where and who the enemy is. It is simply wrong to make the statement he did. It was assinine.

From a conflict studies point of view, the world is less violent now than it has historically been. That's simply the way it is. there is less violence now than there has been in the past.

Unless you want to tell us how the world is less safe now even though conflict has diminished and the threat of nuclear war with the Soviets has gone away.

Are you serious? If we took them out, then we wouldn't have to continue to grab our liberties. Strange, the party in power continues to errode our rights, and doesn't want to tackle the job that would keep them from having an excuse for their grabbing those liberties. Convenient? If it continues to run rampant they then have every excuse to do just that.

Gotta keep hyping up the irrational fear of the bogey man so people continue to gleefully hand over their essential liberties for some false sense of security by an over-reaching government.

Wanna take them out? Get our government to quit funding, training and equipping them.

But useful idiots like you continue to cower in fear over the bogey man we created, own and operate.

Kurds in cages?

Well, now, they were told they needed jobs.

So they're planning to take up cheese-making. Thing is they can't spell worth a damn.

 

[depotoo]

No, the ones fearful are the ones falsely believing that if we just leave them alone, empathize, apologize, they will leave us alone.

Statistically speaking we have less violence today and statistically speaking that makes the world safer. I have yet to see you provide evidence to the contrary. So acting smug in your opinion only comes off as insecure on your part.

And this is the guy who's philosophy they are running with Steven Pinker, a professor of psychology-not a historian. He includes less violence to animals within his assertion of their being less violence, along with other things that have nothing to do with conflicts orwarring.
COOK: Is the general trend toward less violence going to continue in the future?
PINKER: It depends. In the arena of custom and institutional practices, it’s a good bet. I suspect that violence against women, the criminalization of homosexuality, the use of capital punishment, the callous treatment of animals on farms, corporal punishment of children, and other violent social practices will continue to decline, based on the fact that worldwide moralistic shaming movements in the past (such as those against slavery, whaling, piracy, and punitive torture) have been effective over long stretches of time.

And his philosophy on making the world a safer place, thinking their is noone inherently evil within their discourse-
Decent government helps, particularly non-corrupt, non-brutal, and consistent policing. Halfway decent governments also provide basic services like education (which gives young men an alternative to adventure in militias) and an infrastructure of commerce (which tips the incentives from zero-sum plunder to positive-sum trade). In the international arena, peacekeepers are demonstrably effective—not 100 percent of the time, but more often than when adversaries are left to fight to the bitter end.
More nebulously, the forces of cosmopolitanism—literacy, travel, journalism, education, the mixing of peoples—corrodes tribalism, authoritarianism, and puritanism, with all the punitive sentiments that go with them, and make it harder to demonize foreigners and nonconformists. Intellectuals, for their part, should avoid the thrills of utopian, group-exalting, and struggle-glorifying ideologies, and promote incremental and evidence-based improvements that put the flourishing of individuals first.

Nowhere does he address the life of a well educated, and from a well off family such monsters as bin laden. What is his answer to people that don't fit within his chummy, chummy discourse on what has ailed the world into conflicts of massive scale.

Torture policy existed well before George W. Those clothes colors remind you of that Iraqi prison at all. Kind of orange aren't they?

I don't need a life. I have one, question is where were you when this shit was happening. Covering your ears and waiting for Bushy to say 'we don't torture' most likely.

Got an example of this torture policy being used?

Sure you saw this reported at least once: Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

o, not the liberal media. It wasn't until photos were released that it became a big story. The facts don't line up with the narrative that it was systematic torture policy along with a cover up, if the Army itself was investigating it at the time.

So I will ask again, got any actual proof of torture? You mentioned Gitmo, what torture happened there?

Wow, you have a serious problem accepting reality.

If he wants proof, I'd suggest pointing to the recently released Senate Select Committee report on torture. Not that it is likely to change his opinion; but the evidence that torture took place, as well as extraordinary rendition simply isn't something that can be honestly refuted.

The so-called report from Senate Dems offered no proof at all of any torture. They didn't even interview the chief of the interrogation program.

You progs keep saying there is so much proof of systematic torture, yet can't even provide an example.

It is time that some of this horror is realized by those safe in their homes, so maybe they will realize our dropping 11 bombs a day average on these beasts is not enough. These children did not, especially, ask for this horror. This is going on in much of the middle east as isis infiltrates different countries there, and it is continuing to spread.
Warning graphic. But maybe some need to see...

8 yr olds being used in the fight

And these are mild compared to some. Crazy, isn't it?

Italian coastguard now asking to be armed, due to fears and recent incident, against isis.
Isis in the Mediterranean Italian coastguards demand weapons fearing Islamic State naval terrorism

Italian coastguards have called for authorities to allow them to be armed, amid fears that Islamic State militants will use their new bases in Libya to attack merchant shipping in the Mediterranean.

Coastguards are demanding that they are given the status of police officers, who have the automatic right to carry firearms.

Calls have been renewed following a recent incident in which people traffickers armed with Kalashnikovs threatened Italian coastguards engaged in an operation to rescue thousands of migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean to Europe, reports AFP.
