Good point.

How about isis invades iran and takes what they want?

Thanks to obama trade sanctions against iran have been reduced. Which puts nuclear power within an arms reach a well organized and well funded terrorist organization.

Oh I'd like to see ISIS try that, very much. Unfortunately they aren't that stupid.

Texas I like your style. Keep fear mongering based on no rationale whatsoever. People will bite. You go girl!

Although I fully, completely, 100% agree with you, ISIS has managed to attack and anger every single country they can in the region except Turkey. Had they not been so bloodthirsty to behead Westerners and draw us into the war, they might actually have taken Kobani a month ago. So their stupidity on the stupid scale is still pretty high.

ISIS is a terrifying organization, but they're no match for a real military. Iran, Turkey, and Israel would absolutely crush them.

A good idea compared to what? What's the end game?

Regime change in Syria. What could go wrong by creating a power vacuum within walking distance of ISIS?

More on the story.

Obama started off well with reductions in Iraq and Afghanistan then decided he was going to do... something? Hagel lets Obama know that there needs to be some definite policy or plan and out he goes. If he keeps this up Obama may be the best Presidential hope for the Republicans. I was hopeful that they would be forced to come up with someone not so "Republican", but it may be a case where someone, anyone, who isn't Obama gets elected. It's hard to know when no one knows anything about what's going on and apparently that includes Obama. Too bad.
