IS the Blame Game Part 4 - The New War on Terror

Daily Mail: Reports " Leon Panetta says Obama administration brushed aside push for troops to stay behind in Iraq because it was 'eager to rid itself of' the war....The power vacuum left when Obama ordered servicemen and women home has been filled by ISIS and other al-Qaeda offshoots  "

Lets Get Real:

The Obama Administration's spin on the decision by POTUS to take troops out is making it look worse, as Fox reported last night the Iraqi Government wanted around twenty four thousand troops to stay in Iraq, then the troops would get legal protection.   The Obama Oval just offered five thousand, that number was seen as to low for the political results that would be faced by the Iraqi Government.  In essence the growth of IS in Iraq is down to the Oval Office and the Presidential advisors who played politics with national security.   The major problem is the Obama ego, POTUS does not have the ability to accept that he can do WRONG, the elite media has kissed his backside so much that he thinks the spin of the Oval Administration is REAL.   The World will have to wait for 2017 for a real leader to come in to the Oval Office, so far that looks like Hillary Clinton.   The Republican side looks either weak or bordering on Isolation, thus blog might even support a Democrat for the first time, politics is an art not a science. 

The FATE of Kurdish Kobani - The War on Terror

Guardian: Reports " Isis assault on Kurdish city of Kobani ‘reaches decisive moment’..Kurdish fighters holding off Islamist fighters from the east as Turkey says it will do ‘whatever it can’ to stop Kobani falling "

Lets Get Real:

Talk from Turkey is all well and good, this is the time to get the Turkish Army over the Syrian border to protect the Kurds and more important for Turkey to make sure that IS does not become a threat to Turkey, as any strike ON Turkey would bring in NATO.  The Obama plan to bomb IS out of life has one problem, it needs ground troops to clean them out, in the major towns and cities it will take Western Special Forces in hand to hand combat to take down IS.   The Kurds can only do so much, they are still not getting they arms they were promised, the first army that has to take IS on is the Turks.   They Government of Turkey will want to make sure that its has the back up of Western Forces, thus Obama and the West might have to accept that it will take Western troops back in Iraq and now  Syria.  One does wish POTUS has left troops in Iraq in 2011. 

IS on the march in Syria - The New War on Terror

BBC News: Reports " Heavy fighting is being reported between Kurdish militiamen and Islamic State (IS) militants advancing on the northern Syrian town of Kobane. "

Lets Get Real:

The UK Coalition Governent in the UK could use the attack on Kobane as a reason to strike Syria, it has two interesting points, its a Kurdish town, and at the moment the Kurds are out boots on the ground, also it helps Turkey, if the US and UK take the air war to IS, the Turks could send in ground troops to help clean them out and protect the Kurds from IS.   The article reports that IS is in the town already, thus it will need close combat, a job for out Kurdish and Turkish allies.   Lets be clear the Turkes and Kurds have not time for each other, but in this case both are the ememies of IS.   Interesting days in Syria and the Turkish border.
