About 40 Countries Form Coalition Against IS

Notable by their absence is Israel. Once again, the US is looking for allies in the Middle East and our "best ally" in the Middle East is no where to be found. We know they have the military power to deal with ISIL, so I guess Israel must feel that ISIL is no threat to them.

Maybe the US needs a more dependable ally in the Middle East. One that will be there for us when we need them.

And that is a damn-fine point. Out biggest "ally" in the very place where "IS" are located, will not be helping. Hmmmm
As I said before; Israel sure is benefitting from IS while sitting back and not helping. They seem like they feel very safe for some reason....

I'll update the list. Israel remains very active with intelligence gathering for anti ISIS operations. Mossad wouldn't ever be left out of this one. Benjamin Netanyahu has wanted full fledged war with radical Islam probably since he was knee high to a duck running around in diapers.

Israel is definitely in the game.

Israel has provided satellite imagery and other intelligence in support of the U.S.-led aerial campaign against Islamic State in Iraq, a Western diplomat said on Monday. Once "scrubbed" of evidence of its Israeli origin, the information has often been shared by Washington with Arab and Turkish allies, the diplomat said. Israel's Defense Ministry neither confirmed nor denied involvement in any international efforts against the militant group.

I won't get into the nasty situation with Gaza, except to say Israel is full engaged with the US regarding ISIS while blowing the west bank to hell. My only hope is that this coalition doesn't use the same tactics the IDF is using... Civilian casualties are not acceptable.

Edit window for OP is closed. Time exceeded. Thats ok. It's obligotory for Israel to be involved with this.

The count I have is now at 23 nations. Still digging for the others.

If Israel publicly joined the coalition then half the members would leave and ISIS would have a huge recruiting tool. Just as Israel has been the Kurds primary backers for years they never do it publicly. Just as the goverments of the Arab States and Israel cooperate on things but, never publicly. That is simply the way things work in the region. In Desert Storm Saddam was desperate to make it a Iraq Israel conflict that he kept launching SCUDs at them and Israel could not respond because by doing so it would fracture the coalition and harm the US effort. At the request of it allie Israel say on its hands.

Exactly, and thank you for pointing that out. That stuff has been going on since Charlie Nessbit (Charlie Wilson) started setting up meetings between the CIA, Israel and the Mujahideen.

Israel plays ball with certain Islamic groups. They do so very quietly.

Turkey will be enforcing econimic defenses, mainly in terms of oil exports being shut down from IS affiliates and trying to stop money flow, too. Who Is Part of Coalition

Turkey: U.S. officials say Turkey has taken steps to cut the flow of money to ISIS and denied entry to or deported several thousand foreign fighters heading to Syria to join the extremists, CNN's Elise Labott and Tom Cohen reported Friday. The United States is hoping Turkey will stop oil exports from ISIS-held areas that bring more funding to the group, they write in a piece that examined who is signing on to aid the West fight ISIS.

Jordan: Former Jordanian Foreign Minister Marwan Muasher said on CNN on Sunday that he doubts Jordan will commit ground troops in the fight against ISIS. "The U.S. will have to take the lead in providing military strikes," he said. Jordan's key role would be providing intelligence to the West, Muasher said. Speaking from the capital of Amman, he stressed that Jordan's intelligence on ISIS is "second to none."

Egypt is being reported as supportive of the coalition, however details are no where to be found aside from 'idealogical' role to play. Egypt says ISIS not a part of Islam

Best ally? You need to read the Talmud.

EU countries involved? They might have a conflict of interest as they may have been caught buying oil from Isil.

so that link is linked to sorcha or something?

There are other links other than scots, like zero hedge and live leak but I wonder how many of the EU will step up to the plate. If there is truth to the news leak then Isil has been allowed to sell oil to EU through some traitors to mankind.

This is ridiculous .

THEY created/molded & funded ISIS/ISIL to cause unrest in Syria and the surrounding regions.

Have them make perfect PR stunt Beheading videos after initial attempt to ramp up public opinion to bomb Assad was a complete fail.

All the while the Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah/Lebanon have been fighting these scum the whole time.


Now we're to believe WE are going in there to "Help"...Looks like Libya all over again.

Result:
10000s+ dead innocent civilians
overthrow of Assad.
Annexing of more land by Israel.
Possible ongoing world conflict to cause WW3
