i honestly wonder what they're going to hit. like how much humint do they really have for meaningful targeting? like you can loiter by cities in a drone and look for checkpoints but thats a pretty tactical target.

it'd be great if there was some battle of oran action (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Mers-el-K%C3%A9bir ) goin where we destroy our own hand-me-downs - but i imagine IS kids were actually smart enough to divvy up the spoils and not leave them in their bases.

i guess that's to say there are no strategic targets except for leadership but it seems to much of a CF to actually get good intel?? guido's $0.02.

idk wtf happened to the dude that takes the pictures for HONY on fb but literally the last 3 were all of Iraqis facing some type of internal displacement from ISIS with the Grave Subtext being "something must surely be done for these folks."

yeah the same guy who walks around central park asking people what the meaning of happiness is.

someone had npr on this afternoon, and six years of fake religious liberalism have I guess been rolled back in a couple days and "jihadis" is now again considered a cool way for liberal Democrats to talk about the Enemy Muslim. Skol.

I was in New York for a couple of days and Vice News ads are everywhere. They've done a good job finding a unique place in the american propaganda machine.
