ISIS Now “At The Gates Of Baghdad”
ISIS fighters are now ‘at the gates of Baghdad’, just one mile from the Iraqi capital, despite Obama’s airstrikes.
Obama is not “the reluctant warrior”. He may want this to happen. No one can be this incompetent and be elected President of The United States twice… right?
“If you like your head, you can keep your head. Period.”
WAKE UP AMERICA!
Fierce fighting has been reported on the outskirts of Baghdad where ISIS militants are attempting to seize control of the Iraqi capital – despite ongoing Western airstrikes against the terror group.
The fighting is taking place just one mile to the west of the city, with government forces desperately trying to hold off the militants, who allegedly killed up to 1,000 soldiers during clashes yesterday.
ISIS have held a number of towns and villages close to the Iraqi capital since earlier in the year, when government troops melted away following a lightning advance in the west of the country – enabling the terrorist group to seize further swaths of territory for their so-called caliphate.

“To begin withdrawing before our commanders tell us we are ready … would mean surrendering the future of Iraq to al Qaeda,” Bush said. “It would mean that we’d be risking mass killings on a horrific scale. It would mean we’d allow the terrorists to establish a safe haven in Iraq to replace the one they lost in Afghanistan.”
“It would mean increasing the probability that American troops would have to return…”

“It would mean increasing the probability that American troops would have to return at some later date to confront an enemy that is even more dangerous,” he concluded.
