Its the 80s all over again. Just pretend Syria changed its name to Afghanistan Jr

Never seen it all the way through, even though everyone tells me it is great.

The first movie I saw in college. Saw it when it came out. It's pretty great. 

[Amazing Larry]

What an embarrassment.

 

"After nearly 12 months of extensive international outreach, the program has so far yielded only 54 fighters — all of whom were killed, captured by terrorists in Syria or scattered when they came under attack this summer."

Its about $$$$, not results. The worse result, the better, actually. More reason to get more funding

[gotbeer]

I'll just put this in here.  Since I don't know where it should go, and if it should have it's own thread.  But this should be a boon for tourism.  And in before Trump says the Mexicans were actually there to train with ISIS and is proof that they are murders and rapists.

How do you fight against a group that brings their own bard?

blarg, when they teach CPR these days they tell us to sing the song staying alive by the bee gees so that we can keep up the right tempo. maybe the ISIS guitarist is doing something similar with the theme song to hawaii five-o for those AK 47s.

[Hollyw00d]

He's definitely playing "while my guitar gently weeps"

[gotbeer]

I'm trying to figure out which song he's singing between these two.

U.S. Says Rebel It Trained Surrendered Matériel in Syria

 

United States Central Command said the rebel commander told the military that he surrendered the American-provided ammunition and trucks early this week in exchange for safe passage through an area in which the Qaeda offshoot, the Nusra Front, operates.

 

The matériel “equated to roughly 25 percent” of the equipment issued to the rebel group led by the commander, who had recently completed the training program, said Col. Patrick Ryder, a spokesman for Central Command, or Centcom.

 

 

 

Remember when the US said that the Russians were going to be destabalizing what the US were doing?  

[Amazing Larry]

You know we've got problems when Trump is the only candidate that has the right idea about Syria.

Iran vows legal action against Saudi after hajj disaster

Just imagine if Saudi Arabia closed its borders and refused pilgrimage for "public safety".

People get killed every year at Haj. It's a logistical nightmare made all the worse by having 1.5 of the 2 million participants be morons.
