Islamic State: Isis flaunts captured Syrian fighter jets in video showing massacre

The aircraft and seized surface-to-air missiles could be used against US

Islamic State (Isis) militants have added Syrian fighter jets to their growing armoury after capturing an airbase where they massacred up to 200 prisoners.

At least three planes were shown in a propaganda video by the extremists following the battle for the al-Tabqa Syrian Air Force base two weeks ago.

The footage, obtained by CNN, shows Isis fighters posing with stationary jets and waving the black flag but they were not seen in the air.

Au contraire.  The beady-eyed characteristic is not race-specific. Likewise the characteristic of weasel-ness. It is found in all versions of the human species. Besides, who made YOU an arbiter of who is and who is not racist?  There is nothing at all official about your blithering drivel.

Gotta hand it to ya, Best; you ARE consistent--consistent in your absolutism:

 

 "never (emphasis added) makes a post against any politician that doesn't include running down their looks"

 

When will you realize that you destroy your credibility with such absolute, all-subsuming statements?  All I would have to do to show you that you are wrong would be to extract from the records of this forum only ONE critical comment I have made against any politician without any comment on his/her looks..  That would be an easy thing to do, as you well know, but I will not take the time to do it, since the matter speaks for itself and frankly, you ain't worth the trouble.

Opposition group: ISIS militants training to fly warplanes in Syria

Could ISIS fighters be training as warplane pilots capable of turning their weapons on coalition aircraft?

That's the worrying prospect suggested by an unverified report from the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights that ISIS has three warplanes in its possession in northern Syria.

The Syrian opposition group also claims, citing reliable sources in Syria, that former Iraqi military officers are training members of the Sunni extremist militant group to fly them.

The planes are at the Al-Jarrah military airport east of the contested city of Aleppo, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

While Jindal is a Caucasian, he is also a person of color. By the left's definition, using physical descriptions to deride him is racists.  By Republican standards, such proves he has no other arguments.  Either way, a complete admission of intellectual emptiness.  To be fair, Condie has been declining in such for the last few months.

Are you not the one always crabbing on people when they speak disparagingly about others like the Obamas?

You would like to think that, since lately you have often found it expedient to make such asinine ASSertions instead of actually addressing subject matter objectively.  A physical description of one or more of  a given person's characteristics is not racist when it includes nothing of racist content. Nothing I posted about Jindal is by any rational criteria racist and you know that, but you are still stubbornly defending the bogus  racist charge you intemperately and impetuously barfed up.

 

Pitiful! Next time put your brain in gear before putting your fingers to the keyboard.

Have you really become so thickheaded that you do not understand what "relationship" means?

 

 

Bear in mind, also, that no fly zones have worked in the past when implemented and are not just targeted at the forces on the ground that are involved in the fighting but also toward their allies or others who might have air forces that could come in and  influence the fighting or bring in supplies to support those troops on the ground.

 

The real danger of a "no fly zone" at this point in time is that through our own President's weaknesses and failed policies or more like NO policies implementing a no fly zone now would very much put us in a position of conflict with Russia,  Russia is actually proving that when you have a plan and do what you say your going to do that it can have positive effects.

 

Russia is destroying ISIL or ISIS targets and factions when our own president cannot even come to admit that they exist or that Radical Islam exist.   The first step in destroying an enemy is to recognize that enemy and what it is or who it is .   Obama, and the Democrats for that matter, seem more intent in fighting against Israel and our allies than they are against Iran and other nations that wish to see us cease to exist.  Obama, to the world, is seen more as Carter was seen which was a push over and someone that you don't have to fear but rather someone to be laughed at.   Remember when Iran held our hostages and at what point they willingly, without negotiation, allowed them to go?  It was when Reagan was elected and they let them go because they new Reagan was a man that would had backbone and a willingness to do what was needed to accomplish a mission or task.  

 

It's not as much Obama's inexperience that puts us in this situation but rather his policies and his actions or lack of it.  The world sees more of a coward and an appeaser than anything else and thus they respect nothing that he says.   He's already proven that his "red lines" mean nothing and America is seen as our President is seen.  I don't know if Trump will be elected or if a Republican will be elected to replace Obama but I can guarantee you IF a Republican is elected, Trump, Christie, Rubio, whichever one, you can be assured that immediately after January 20th, 2017 nations will consider America much more seriously and began to fear us rather than be amused by us.  Right now we, the US, is the laughing stock of the world and evil prospers and threats to world Peace abound.   

 

The real question is will the perceived weakness and lack of backbone lead to someone like North Korea attacking us or Iran attacking Israel knowing or expecting that our President will consider the attack justified as in regards for something that we have done in the past?  Even those who are the most ardent supporters of the Democratic party should be able to see flaws in their President and future Presidential candidate(s).  

 

Do a little research also.  Answer the following questions if you will?

1) Which party was supported and responsible for Civil Rights being enacted for minorities?

2) Which party was fighting for elimination of Slavery in the Nation?

3) Which party had a large number of it's members as members of the KKK?

4) Which party was responsible for Women's rights being passed and enacted?

5) Which party stood in opposition to Women's rights being enacted?

6) Which parties Politicians are more supported by the richest of the rich on Wall Street?

So you know the definition.  That makes it even more difficult to understand why you do not perceive one when it is clearly implied by YOU.

You apparently don't, since you are throwing in with the epitome of irrelevance, namely a demonstrably irrelevant critique that I have plainly shown to be irrelevant.  You carp and crow in generalities, as usual, instead of providing any kind of analytical rationale for your useless commentary.

Silly little man.  Just one excerpt from my very first post in this thread clearly shows more than a "nasty description of Jindal.:  Here 'tis:

 

"Bobby Jindal is way out of his element. Where is he now in the polls?  About some fraction of a percent? "

 

There is nothing at all nasty about that, dire, just factual observation, unless you have developed some perverse personal definition for nastiness. You are getting as sloppy as Best in your absolutist nonsense.

 

 

Hillary Clinton supports a no fly zone in Syria, the same as Bobby Jindal   Obama does not, but commented favorably on Hillary.

 

"October 2, 2015 8:45 PM EDT - President Obama said on Oct. 2 that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's decision to support a no-fly zone in Syria, which Obama opposes, was not "half-baked." "Hillary Clinton is not half-baked in terms of her approach to these problems,"'"

http://www.washingtonpost.com/...1f4521205_video.html

 

ABC's Martha Raddatz is misinformed, at best, or a prejudiced demagogue for her treatment of Jindal.

 

Contenduhh and Bold -- a nasty comment upon Hillary's looks would be the equivalent response from the two of you.  An apology for comments on Jindal would be the honorable thing for the two of you to do.  However, from experience, I would not expect either from you.

Then, as Hillary holds the same view as to no fly zones, so is she.  As she is the epitome of incompetence -- her last level of competency appears to be as First Lady of Arkansas -- that is no surprise.
