Way to go, assclown. Now everyone knows U.S. SpecOps are conducting operations against the “JV” ISIS in Syria.
From Fox News.
The Obama administration sent U.S. troops to Syria recently to attempt to rescue hostages being held by Islamic State militants, including journalist James Foley, but failed to find them, the Pentagon said Wednesday.
Pentagon Press Secretary Rear Admiral John Kirby said in a statement that the mission to rescue the Americans targeted a “captor network” inside the militant group, and included air and ground elements.
“Unfortunately, the mission was not successful because the hostages were not present at the targeted location,” Kirby said.
A senior U.S. official also told Fox News the troops apparently just missed the hostages, as the Americans were believed to have been at the site just a few days prior to the mission.
……A senior U.S. official told Fox News that the operation, which took place a couple of months ago, included “several dozen” operators, multiple aircraft and at least one drone.
An additional U.S. military source told Fox News that the mission lasted for a few hours. After the troops did not find the hostages at the location where they were believed held, the troops found information that led them to a second compound.
At this compound, the source said, the troops engaged in a firefight with the militants, killing several including some “significant” members. No U.S. lives were lost but one servicemember sustained minor injuries.
……NSC Spokesperson Caitlin Hayden said in a statement that the administration had not planned to release details of the operation, out of concern for the safety of the hostages. However, she said, it became clear Wednesday it would be reported in the media and the administration had “no choice but to acknowledge it.”
That’s bullshit on stilts. How many in the media knew about it before Obama opened his piehole? Who would leak it besides Obama? Since the rescue attempt happened a couple of months ago and some ISIS shitbags bit the dust, ISIS would have pitched a bitch and released one of their rage-filled videos. Quite frankly, I’m surprised they didn’t. What they did instead, was kill Foley before SpecOps had a chance to catch them.
Word to the clueless: The rest of the hostages will be killed regardless of how much ransom they’re paid by the Brits or how much Obama mouths his idiotic platitudes.
Muzzie terrorists cannot be negotiated with, paid off, or cajoled into peace, love, and Kumbaya. They need to be killed enmasse.
KT McFarland’s suggestion:
…..arm the Kurds with everything they need. They’re the toughest fighters in the Middle East and the only ones willing to stand up to ISIS. But they don’t have modern weapons, and ISIS has state-of-the-art U.S. weapons the Iraqi Army abandoned when they ran away from them in June. We should give the Kurds heavy weapons and bomb every ISIS convoy that moves.
However, she is wrong when she thinks we should:
“send John Kerry back to the Middle East, checkbook and arms catalog in hand, to forge a new anti-jihadist coalition of moderate Sunni states, the Kurds and Israel. Tell the Saudis and others that they must stop their wealthy people from supporting ISIS and radical Islam.”
Aside from Kerry being a worthless fuckstick, the notion of “moderate” Arab states is delusional.
All of them are just as culpable for terrorism as the ISIS and Al Qaeda. SaudiArabia, Libya, Yemen, Egypt, Pakistan, Malaysia, Jordan, Syria, Iran, and every other Islamic cesspool in the Middle East, North Africa, and Indonesia, continue to fund, train, support, breed, and indoctrinate muzzie jihadists. There are no “moderates”.
Arming the Kurds is useless against the wide spread Islamofascism.
We should have and could have stopped jihad dead in its tracks had we actually fought a real war. The entire Islamic nation-state across the Middle East should have been wiped out; it should have been decimated with MOABs and neutron bombs. No more jihad, no more muzzie threat. The best solution: You attack us, we annihilate you. You want a jihad? We can arrange that. I’d have vaporized every Islamofascist nation-state on 12 September, 2001. This war—any war— can be brought to a relatively quick finish by dedicating every military resource—tactical, strategic, and intelligence—to kill the enemy. Every single one of them. It isn’t hard. Pick your targets and commence fire. But I’m a former Soldier, not a politician.
McFarland also states the obvious about America’s unsecured borders.
The problem is, NOTHING is being done to fix it. Obama’s bat-shit stupid open borders policy, his routine disregard of the immigration laws and instructing the ICE to do the same, has given terrorists have a fucking green light to sneak into the country with the rest of the illegal garbage.
Obama pulled this publicity stunt to try and bolster his image. It failed. Obama’s juvenile attempt to declare ‘hey, we tried’, is another item on his list of “retarded, disastrous shit I did during my time in office.“

Well, he’s only following precedent. Back in the ’60s “Gentleman Bird” johnson blabbed about the fabulous, still-in-development, super secret RS-71 – thereby killing the program. Luckily for U.S. it was immediately reborn as the SR-71 Blackbird, still the fastest, highest flying air breathing aircraft in the world and one that armies of intel weenies wish was still in service. But what else would you expect?
