......as the free world watches and waits. And for what? The 60 nation coalition to make a move?

Abducting girls has become a key part of the IS strategy to recruit foreign fighters

LoL it's not as if they these gals are Victoria's Secret models. Especially the ones kidnapped by Boko-haram. These foreign fighter must be really desperate for a piece of tail.

An obscenity echoed by:

LoL it's not as if they these gals are Victoria's Secret models

Same old misogyny.

1 day to go

ISIL can be wiped out with less than 100K if there is a good determination and if they really consider ISIL acts as an evil act .......

the participating troops know the area dimension very well ,,,,

But not having sense so common, I can see why you overlook what misogyny is

And referring to kidnapped women as

a piece of tail

is perfectly OK. Got it.

i get that she is talking her own book, as it were but i think it is sensationalist to say that this war is being fought on the bodies of women. Also some of the tales she recounts seem a little far fetched. Also she does nothing to explain why plenty of young women from outside these conflict areas are willingly going there to join IS.

Ah yes. The UN who ruthlessly promote their own agenda but do nothing about resolving the awfulness of much of it. If this woman is right (and i have my dounbts about some of her assertions) why isn't Moon sending in the troops?

"They were then made to stand in front of a group of men who decided “what you are worth.”

The men in that group are worthless.

The sex slave markets are completely in line with fundamentalist Sunni islam. They simply replicate what is described in the Haddiths. And they serve as a great incentive for a steady flow of new young jihadis to ISIS.

What is infuriating is that the US and other Western governments are continuing to support Sunni Jihadis in Syria, aka ISIS.

Why does nobody ask Obama how he feels about the sex slave trade which he is aiding by giving aid to the so-called "vetted rebels"?

Gotta love how the Western mainstream media, not to mention political leaders, completely neglect the religious aspect to this horror. Hello, the ISIS are targetting infidel women exclusively. Why do you think that is?

This is like writing about KKK lynchings and pretending that race is not a factor.

Well, girls, I'm sorry that this is happening to you. I really am. But I'd still rather not get involved. There is no good plan to go in and obviously there is no exit strategy. There will never be an exit strategy as long as this Sunni-Shia thing stays unresolved. Anything we do would only be temporary, we'd probably lose lives, and you have set up a situation where anyone who helps one group becomes the enemy of another. So, your family might thank us now and then try to kill us later.

Burning Bush: The US put sanctions on Syria so they can't resupply their army

Oh, please explain the sanctions that the US has in place that stops Russia from resupplying Syria's weapons, which are Russian made. You keep trying to push this for some reason. Russia sells arms to Syria, they've been doing it since the beginning, and it's not a secret. The one question is, as usual, why are you here demanding that the US arm Assad?
