so ISIS is now bringing all the players in one region , hmmm sounds like Armageddon

BINGO!
I've been wondering this for a long time. What if they are luring in every nation from around the world to one place, then boom, nuclear bomb goes off?! Scary to think what could happen....

Nobody is putting forces on the ground. China is not going to get involved with any military force. Russia is limited like most of Europe to small air expeditionary forces and as usual the US does the vast majority of the air campaign. None of those forces are in one place or even one country.

Into the Fray, and then the abyss. May no man walk where others crawl.

Another declaration of war against ISIS

Isis was be the most surviving combatant in history with so many powers declaring war against you and you still are thriving and surviving

Sounds suspiciously contrived to me. Not to disparage the significance of even one life but China going to war over 4 lives sounds a little......wrong. They don't strike me as the biggest humanitarians ever to rule a massive country.

What good does a vast majority of airstrikes do, if the US didn't do much to stop the enemy?
A vast majority of missed targets if you tell me...

And where's your stats to prove otherwise?

This has been uncomfortably proven for all the world to see by way of Russia doing in one week what NATO couldn't do in 2 years.

The US could have taken care of it in a matter of a few days.

The issue is American foreign policy decisions are based on nothing, but politics.

No war can be waged, or won on those.

As W said, and was demagogued for. 'We can fight them here, or we can fight them there'.

People chose the former. People chose poorly.

Both Russia, and China are backing the Assad/Iran/Shia side.

That is why ISIS is attacking them. Both of those countries have taken a page from the West's playbook.

The enemy of my enemy is my 'friend'.

They are gonna learn the hard way. The enemy of my enemy is my enemy.

I am not sure China can support a military campaign so far from home, nor whether they will have any support from Arab and Middle Eastern nations.

What China will almost certainly do though is use this as an excuse to further repress the Muslims within their own borders.

Exactly hate to be a Muslim in china you'll end up dead in anti terrorist operations. As far as globally China is little help. The only possible scenario where they could be useful would be stopping terrorism in Russia if Russia made a call. But even then I don't think Putin would allow that either.

I just saw this headline on the MSM
IS begins to fortify Raqqa ahead of international strikes on Syria

www.news.com.au... 81b39a685ce04a57daef52

So, apart from the human shields its gonna be like shooting fish in a barrel then.

Apparantly they are not letting anyone out of Raqqa? So should be easy to surround then. Then pound the living crap out of the place.

OK, this may not solve all problems, however it will remove a large percentage of isis muppets.

Bring it on.

Nope, nothing wrong here.

People aren't calling it a WW3 but you gotta ask, which major nation isn't involved about now?

The stage is almost set perfectly, just abit more, and then do something REALLY COOL, and destabilize EVERYTHING!

This is too easy, its being run from all sides knowingly or not, and will be quite the fascinating ending to the Age of Pisces!

In today's precious snowflake politically correct "my feelings are more important than facts" western kardashian Hollyweird culture, we have lost our ability to mete out the fear of God - type death to ISIS scum.

This has been uncomfortably proven for all the world to see by way of Russia doing in one week what NATO couldn't do in 2 years.

You see, China, like Russia, has an appalling human rights track record inasfar that it is also uncomfortably convenient for the west in regards to these countries dealing with ISIS the only way they know how. In saying that, I cannot wait for the day that Israel joins the party because they sure as hell take being punched in the proverbial nose very seriously too.

I just hope that when China joins the party they don't use any weapons or equipment "made in China", because, you know, it'll break pretty much as soon as its unwrapped.

Maybe if China gets ISIS prisoners they can send them to the new land in the south China sea and once the place is full of ISIS's, bomb it.

The NEXT TIME Israel gets involved with anything outside its borders will be its end.

No wonder many are leaving the "promised land" despite all efforts to seal them in.

This is a full blown plan to smash the world a new one, and Israel is not going to be standing afterwards, just like about everyone else in the region, and other regions as well.

There will be NO caliphate, or army thereof.

Talk about being had by the propaganda.

This is about total destruction and assimilation of us ALL.

Not making NEW things of the same.

ISIS to fortify Raqqa

The difference and difficulty is, the countries fighting ISIS fight with a conscience to the best of their ability and are avoiding at all costs innocent lives, Jihadists have no such conscience.

TL;DR

But to respond to the question as to why they haven't been stamped on yet..

Realistically, there's nothing to "stamp on". ISIS are not an army, nor a nation. They are fighting a guerilla campaign for an ideal. You can bomb their current capital back to the stone age, their capital will just reappear elsewhere. You can kill their current leaders, others will just take their place.

There is no fast "boots on the ground" solution to this campaign. This is a long haul one.

A war of extermination you mean. Thats th eonly way to win there is elimination of the entire people who support ISIS or extremist. Death penalties for anyone practicing their ideaology after no matter age or sex as well. Internet restrictions on useage of Prophet,or other certain words too with a re education trip to those who use it alot.

. . .and I would advocate the exact same solution for extremist Christians. . .that is, if I were as silly as you.

agreed

Well of course china will fight isis... They cant have USA and Isreal surround them 100%

Oh contraire.

Special forces from the United States will arrive "very soon" in Syria to “suffocate and strangle” the core of the Islamic State group, Brett McGurk, presidential envoy for the global coalition to counter ISIS, said Sunday.

McGurk's comments came during an interview on the CBS show “Face the Nation” but he declined to say when the special forces would reach Syria. President Barack Obama had announced in late October that the U.S. will send 50 special troops to the war-struck country to advise allied forces in their fight against ISIS.

“We're going to pressure them [ISIS] and strangle them in the core. And that means all around Iraq and Syria. And we're doing that by cutting offer their final 98-kilometer [nearly 61 miles] stretch of border they have with Turkey," McGurk told CBS, adding that troops were working on cutting off links between Raqqa and Mosul -- ISIS-controlled cities -- and "working with Iraqi security forces to retake Ramadi.”

I wonder if the US special forces will work in conjunction with special forces of other countries? Another thing, why would they announce this?!

i think it's the cool thing to do now just declare war on the demons of the day.. funny i hear they just looking for monies seems like this is socioeconomic/cultural not much about chopping heads off for the heck of it. meth guys, it's legal meth and monies, you know what happens to chubby girls in our country get on that stuff, demon rail thin within a year. same bit.

Its not a silly idea. the ROMANS used it from time to time.scorched earth. And I didnt say regular muslims did i? Im talking about this enemy specifically in that area of the world. As to th eword usage its not diffrent than what th e germans do to nazi supporters. certain words are restricted due to their use.

Also when was the last time you saw a christian extremist blow themselves up or lop off anyone head? I do agree that they also need to be dealt with. all extremist do. If you have to force yourself on someone you dont deserve to do anything.

I like to take a second here and quote Les Grossman:

So whatever you're thinking, you'd better think again! Otherwise I'm gonna have to head down there and I will rain down an un-Godly #ing firestorm upon you! You're gonna have to call the #ing United Nations and get a #ing binding resolution to keep me from #ing destroying you. I'm talking scorched earth, mother#er! I will massacre you! I WILL # YOU UP!
