Americans Brace For New Wave Of Islamic State Terror -- Washington Times

Obama gives sympathy to Foley family, tried rescue

The vicious Islamic State group now is vowing to broaden its war campaign to include killing Americans wherever and whenever it can.

Tuesday’s horrific videotaped beheading of American photojournalist James Foley was packaged with a new Islamic State posting on social media threatening the United States: “We will drown all of you in blood.”

Not going to lose any sleep over this, even if they do pull of multiple attacks we have the means to defend ourselves and strike back with vengeance.

History shows when America is attacked we do more than just level the playing field.

Aye, ya's go and invade another country that had nothing to do with the attack in the first place. Wonder who will it be this time, Sweden perhaps? :P

Plowman, that's a fair statement. The truth hurts sometimes.
Hopefully, however, we've learned from our mistakes rather than just do the same stupid things over and over again.
On the other side, hopefully we do more than withdraw and hope to contain the mess to the MIddle East, because that will fail as well.

But if ISIS attacks in Europe or the States, you can bet the gloves will come off.

Plowman,

Actually Sweden, Norway and Denmark had a lot to do with the 911 attacks. Think about it.

Why not attack Iraq, we were not at peace with Iraq.

Attacking Iraq was resuming a war, draining the swamp and payback for street theater on a national level.
