Obama Annonces Iraq War III.

Just heard on Frebch news. He will engage "pinpointed attacks " one some Jihadisr holded tatgets in Northerm Iraq to "counter militants progression and protect threatened Christians" it would be only air forced actions.And France is ready to help by providing intelligence.

In what kind of mess are US sending themselves?

maybe that's not what it really is, but I haven't seen yet anyone make that case. I don't count calling it "Iraq War III" as such a case, that is just namecalling at this point.

You're silly numbering scheme doesn't even work, which "numbered" war should Clinton get in the 90s for targeted strikes and enforcing the no-fly-zone?

The current operation is much smaller in scope than the Clinton actions that you have apparently forgotten about. Comparing Obama's actions to Desert Storm or the Iraq War is incredible nonsense.

Spamming about torture and patriotism. Seizing that moral high ground, as it were. They do love their (perceived) moral high ground.
