Here's a chilling headline. We've seen this sort of thing for months; we're going to see a lot more, I'm afraid:
Four young Christians brutally beheaded by ISIS in Iraq for refusing to convert to Islam, says British Vicar of Baghdad forced to flee
Here's my question:
Under what circumstances will the United States ever declare war and wage war with the intent of defeating this enemy?
ISIS call themselves a state.
They've pledged themselves our enemy.
They are, as we speak, committing genocide.
If I were President Obama, I'd stop dicking around with these guys and stop dicking around with "authorizations" from Congress or arguments about the scope of my authority as Commander in Chief. I'd just go to Congress with this headline and wave it on camera and demand a declaration of war against ISIS. Again, they call themselves a "state." Well, so be it. The last two states that declared war on us, Germany and Japan, well... I wonder if the ISIS boys have seen pictures of Dresden or Tokyo ca. 1945.
