What's with all the lights, and all the music? Jane, stop this crazy thing!

Well, at least he's honest. Unless I'm mistaken, neither Obama nor Hillary mentioned the Syrian pipeline at all during their most recent spat of warhawking, and if this ad means that Trump intends to stop funding, training, and militarily-supporting ISIS? All the more reason to get behind him.
ISIS, you're FIRED.

How's his personal security these days?

fedex - 2016-01-05 OMG, can you imagine the kind of martyr he would become? And the kind of people he would become a martyr to? the mind boggles with the unforeseen consequences of such an act.

Meerkat - 2016-01-05 Bankruptcy 1: The Trump Taj Mahal, 1991
Bankruptcy 2: Trump Plaza Hotel, 1992
Bankruptcy 3: Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts, 2004
Bankruptcy 4: Trump Entertainment Resorts, 2009
And not a very good one, it seems.

EvilHomer - 2016-01-05 I don't see why people have a problem with that, either. Remember, one of the hard realities of sustainable development is that the average American *needs* to see a severe decrease in her quality of life. Tiny houses and communitarian land reform won't just happen magically overnight; one way or another, Americans need to be driven into bankruptcy, and Trump is more than qualified to do this.

True story.

This article has been passed around a lot, but it's still a pretty concise description of how incredibly backwards-ass and old school Isis's philosophy and theology really is.

fedex - 2016-01-05 Sorry that was meant as a reply to that guy.

That guy - 2016-01-06 Well, ok that clarified A LOT.
The Atlantic is often excellent.
I think that answered my question about whether they're too evil/religious/ideological to want anything practical.
|
EvilHomer - 2016-01-06 Well, hopefully the US Special Operations Command, who apparently "do not even understand" ISIS, will read The Atlantic's hard-hitting expose and figure out a way to bomb those medieval savages into submission, before ISIS can bring about the end of the world (that is what they want, you know). As The Atlantic so concisely points out, ISIS is a group who represents Islam - only hang on maybe it doesn't (discuss amongst yourselves!) - and nobody knows where they came from or why they just emerged suddenly over the last fifteen years. What we DO know is that they are nothing like us civilized Western liberals (including the civilized Western liberals of Al-Qaeda, such as our old friend Mohammad "Walmart" Atta), and (as the article's not-at-all-ironic conclusion makes clear) they will stop at nothing to realize that most-romantic and tantalizing of political movements: fascism.
I mean, those ISIS extremists don't even like to spend their evenings watching Hollywood movies! It's madness.
Or, maybe Major General Nagata and the SOC could have talked to the CIA, State Department, and Amy Goodman:

US military intelligence and the Washington Post:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/0 9/AR2006040900890_pf.html
And any one of the various people who, during the 1980s, were involved in the US-backed effort to undermine the Soviet war effort in Afghanistan. I'm sure Gen Nagata knows many of these folks; as the head of the US military's counter-terrorism force (recently promoted to the National Counterterrorism Center, one of the primary organizations spearheading total information awareness), Nagata could have perhaps talked to these employees of his PRIOR to his interview with The Atlantic, to give him a better idea of, and help him to better explain what, his own damn job is.
... or perhaps he didn't check his facts with Amy Goodman, because he still resents her for running this?
