Russ Vaughn, American Thinker: One picture to sum up Obama's idiotic ISIS policy
Recently the Obama administration was crowing loudly about its success in vaporizing a single, notoriously vicious jihadist with a well-placed Hellfire missile. Mohammed Emwazi was a British citizen who not only joined the jihadist movement, but became one of its leading public executioners, quickly dubbed by the media Jihadi John. John had no qualms about publicly incriminating himself in widely distributed videos showing him sawing off the heads of helpless kneeling victims. His flair for such bloody publicity placed him at the very top of the high-value targets list and resulted in his mission as a fervent executioner for ISIS being abruptly truncated last week, according to U.S. authorities. Since John earned his own execution by drone missile last week, the Obama administration has been basking in the warm glow of his fiery demise, citing the event as evidence that its strategy for combatting ISIS is effective.
WNU Editor: I understand that these buildings have been destroyed in the latest air-strikes by France and Russia. But Russ Vaughn is right ... apparently the U.S. has known for quite a while that these buildings housed hundreds of ISIS fighters and supporters .... so why did the U.S. make the decision to not bomb them?

WNU Editor,
Because it's a "phoney war"?
And they were supporting all groups opposed to Assad in Syria. Oh, those Russians!!!!
Incompetence and stupidity come to mind.
Yep l think if you take away the hi tech firepower the u.s would be almost comical in there ability to wage war in regard to strategic planning unless they have overwhelming odds
They didn't bomb them because they didn't want to bomb them. The rats were more useful to them alive. This whole charade is a crime.
As I said to a friend of mine recently when France started increasing its airstrikes ten-fold, "That's all good, and fair play to them, but... why now? Why only now? Do they really have to wait till their own citizens are bleeding on their own streets for there to be the political will to strengthen their attacks on the death cult? And how many more strategic ISIS targets go untouched? It doesn't seem like anyone wants to cut off the oxygen supply to ISIS."
