lol. Good one, SenseNotSoCommon.

Hopefully, Islamic State (or whatever name they're going by now) will eventually be defeated.

Obama's reaction is too little and too late. Obama legacy will be that he is a weak and do nothing president that kept the world in turmoil.

...and how do you imagine that happen, seeing that Obama is funneling support to them via his aid to the Syrian jihadis? Fact is, ISIS is a direct result of US policy. Without the misguided support for the Sunni rebels in Syria, ISIS would not exist.

How about a vow of support from Putin or Xi Jingping?

No one misses Saddam, nor his murderous crazy sons. Thank God he's gone!

Vows Support - WOW - now everyone is relieved - they know they have someone to trust. Someone strong who never failed his allies

You can bet that the Kurds don´t miss him. And in case you missed that, the Kurds are the only people who are actually fighting ISIS at the moment.

I´d recommend some time to think before rattling off those talking points.
