Jordanian pilot burned alive by terrorist

They are very well-funded. They captured a couple of oil fields early on and have been selling oil on the black market for about a year, making millions a day.

That makes sense, the campaign should start by re-capturing these fields.

Cut off the flow of money and you'll cut off their power. Anything they control that's worth anything needs to either be taken or destroyed.

^agreed. then cut off other things at the same time. such as their body parts.

Did someone say take their oil?

This is what people are trying to do through the proper channels, but as those in Jordan noticed, proper doesn't do shit. Someone will need to make the decision to either take troops to get those oil field back (with obvious death toll on both sides) or bomb that shit into next year (then no one gets the oil for the time being).

Props to their King. As for Obama, dudes an out of touch tool that gets by being a hell of a public speaker...

Sadly enough, this all would've never happened if Bush was still in charge. We defeated these clowns in 2006 and his royal highness Obama decided to end the war early, pull everybody out, and release most of the captured terrorists back to go fight. Now we're back in Iraq refighting the people we had beaten. Shows you how well liberalism works.

If Reagan were president we'd have gone all out on destroying their asses after the first American had his head cut off.

Sadly enough, we're in the age of the military/industrial complex and war is money.

Can you imagine Obama being anywhere remotely close to a battle?
Oh man. A lot of stupidity in this thread.
First off, It would be completely ridiculous to have the American President in a fighter jet. Way too much risk for the leader of the free world. I dont care who is the president, republican or democrat, We are all more stupid from hearing your idiotic statement.

Firstly, we didnt defeat these clowns in 2006, look at the casualty lists since 2006. We pulled out because the war was not a winnable one. There is no leader of their movement to concede the war, and the factions that exist in that world are not readily defined. In WW2 and WW1, the germans had leaders and a structure that was able to concede, they were uniformed so we actually knew who we were fighting. The difference between this Unwinnable war is their "troops" are not uniformed, and have taken the strategies of Vietnam. Shit we bomb one cell of terrorists and even though the people we kill ARE terrorists, their propaganda machine can easily come out and say "these people were regular citizens, just look at their clothes" and the american people eat it up and think we are committing atrocities over there.
Bush was not the answer, he knew the terrorists were in Afghanistan and Pakistan, yet somehow we ended up in Iraq. (i.e. oil). He called Mission Accomplished, in 2003, yet the mission was not nearly done.
Obama didnt end the war EARLY. and it drives me crazy when i see people say that. How long were you expecting us to be in these countries? And prior to the withdrawal the republicans and democrats were both saying "Let these countries deal with their own problems". But for some reason NOW you want us to be the World Police. If we dont take into account the Loss of our soldiers lives over there, and focus on fiscal responsibility, we have spent over 4.4 TRILLION Dollars there. And you want more war and more money to be put there? The estimate for the cost of deploying one U.S. soldier in Afghanistan is over $1 million a year.
Couple facts about this great war Since 2001:
- over 6800 troops have died.
- $4.4 Trillion dollars spent on wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
- over 350,000 people (on both sides) have died as a result of the wars.
- Civil liberties we had before the war, are long since gone. People trust the government much less than we did before the war.

Long enough for ya?
