    I read it all.

    Thank you very much for poasting. I found the articulation of the differences between ISIS and Al Qaeda very interesting. I also have a much better concept of what a caliphate is, and why this is a much bigger deal than I realized.

    It's going to get ugly.

    Yeah, this is some serious stuff. I also learned a great deal about all of this. Really glad I actually read it (reading is hard).

    Just finished, interesting and completely sobering topic. This has been, is, and will continue to be an unbelievably complex issue that our diluted society will struggle to comprehend.

    Case and point

    Yet, just over a year ago, Obama told The New Yorker that he considered ISIS to be al-Qaeda’s weaker partner. “If a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant,” the president said.

    This is the fucking president of the United states, arguably the spokesman for the western world, using an NBA metaphor.

    He must have seen our NBA Hot Talk.
