Oh God, ISIL has developed their own Liberty Dollar scam. Next thing, they'll be selling LifeLock and tools to speed up your PC.

BAKUFA, Iraq -- The flag of an Iraqi Christian minority party is hoisted high over the village of Bakufa in northern Iraq, less than a month after militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) were pushed out and the extremists' black banner was taken down.

The predominantly Christian Assyrian hamlet of 95 houses that once had about 500 people, located some 243 miles north of Baghdad, was overrun by the Islamic State group during its shocking blitz this summer, along with 22 other villages nearby.

In a counter-offensive, the Iraqi Kurdish peshmerga fighters swept in from the north, battling ISIS house-to-house. The fighting forced the villagers to flee to Kurdish towns and cities elsewhere in northern Iraq.

Once Bakufa was retaken, the Kurdish fighters helped set up the village militia, made up of about 70 volunteers and known as Dwekh Nawsha, or "self-sacrifice" in Assyrian.

The men of Dwekh Nawsha now patrol Bakufa round-the-clock, in the hope that the village stays free long enough so their families can return.

Above is a case of true Muslims and true Christians working together to take on ISIL. The amazing thing about the above story, is that it speaks volumes to everyone. It speaks to the ISIL terrorists who want to instill their corrupt version of Sharia law upon people. It speaks to the bigoted Anti Muslims who think that Muslims are not doing enough to take on ISIL.

Be a good remake of Goldfinger. Goldfinger sets up an elaborate plan to rob the ISIL gold reserve, and 007 basically Says, meh help yourself.

Another beheading of an American. I hope the world finds away to destroy this scourge on humanity.

Time to lay the ****ing pipe.

if ISIS survives they'll have the mother of all creation stories.

And with today's events, the Palestinians have killed more Americans in the last year than ISIS.

They could easily be destroyed, finding a way isn't the hard part.

Yeah, if only they used flying robots to kill people instead of knives.

Should probably calculate how many Americans have been killed by Israelis in proportion to ISIS for fairness.

For the United States, the battle for Kobani has also underscored another reality: Kurds are reliably, and demonstrably, pro-American.

Around midday recently, in a tiny village on the Turkish side with a clear line of sight to the fighting across the border, a baby was napping. His father, a Kobani exile named Ahmet Miso, sat outside on a plastic chair.

“In the Middle East, our brothers the Arabs are not helping, and the Americans decided to help the Kurds of Kobani because they care,” he said.

Just then, several large explosions were heard, and Mr. Miso rushed up to the roof to watch the latest American airstrikes.

Downstairs, the baby was waking up. His name: Barack Obama Ahmet.

Since ISIS was a thing? Or since Israel and US became strategic allies?

Either way, go ahead. I'll wait here patiently for your answer, which will definitely disappoint you.

Sure I count 2. Not counting the number of American citizens who died from the Israeli crime. Number of Americans who died in mass shootings last year? 100-200+. So we could say Americans are far more deadly to Americans, than either an Israeli, ISIS, or Palestinian. I understand your desperate desire to paint Palestinians as terrorists and murders but you can do that in the Isreal/Palestinian thread.

If the rhetoric from the US was similar in the cases of ISIS and Palestinian terrorism I think your point would be stronger.

Meh I should have left it alone, and rolled my eyes. Obvious ploys are obvious.

The ploy was obvious. And you still missed it.

It is absurd to paint all Palestinians as terrorists. And I'm sure most supporters of ISIS are just civilians who just think they will give them a better life (Sunni loyalists, etc).

By my point was that is equally absurd to declare, in one breath, how ISIS is going to be crushed and they are evil incarnate; and in the other breath, that the Palestinians/PA are "friends of the American people."

Especially when the Palestinians themselves disagree quite vehemently.

Also worthwhile to note: according to polling data by Qatar-based Arab Center for Research & Policy Studies, the Palestinians are the strongest supporters of ISIS in the Arab world.

This was my point. Huehuecoyotl's reply was a fun case study in projection.
