And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The Peshmerga put a stop to a giant suicide bomber truck - with spectacular results
Funny, I wish we had a government that realized that it's responsibilities end at our borders. Nothing in the Middle East is worth one drop of American blood or one ounce of American gold. Let them fight it out among themselves and we can buy oil from the winner.
I wouldn't mind if the government gave the Kurds the tools to fight the ISIS boys. Better the Kurds fighting successfully, as it reduces the temptation to send our own army.
Turkey hates the Kurds (always has, always will) and Turkey, a member of NATO, is our treaty ally. They don't act much like an ally, but they keep telling us that they are.
For some reason, I'm thinking of Queen.
