Salyavin,
IMO, ISIS and the Sunnis are one and the same. The so called
militants are the Sunni fighters at night, figuratively speaking, and
during the daylight they become the residents of the towns doing their
ordinary tasks.
Obama is correct in saying that this problem is an Iraqi problem.
They have to let the democratic process take hold in their own
culture and understanding.
And who are the victims? The minority people of Iraq, including the
Christians, who are attempting to live in peace in a troubled land.
In the meantime, the kabal that is funding this mayhem is rejoicing in
the money they're making by selling barrels of oil at very high prices
to Europe, the USA and the rest of the world.
Is this evil or what?

According to what I've read, the U.S. does not import any oil for
refining from Iraq - we are 97% energy independent at this point. The
lack of oil resources will affect Europe more than the U.S. and Europe
may be the first set of countries to be restricted in energy resources
when and if Russia starts shutting off the pipeline and sells oil and
gas instead to China. Unless some radical changes in foreign policy are
implemented it doesn't look good to the EU. Maybe it's time for the NATO
countries to really beef up their national defense.
The problem is that the ISIS wants to establish a training camp for
insurgents to attack the west as a base of operations. Needless to say,
this is a huge problem if they are able to obtain weapons of mass
destruction. The bigger problem is the Islamic radicalization of the
nuclear armed countries of Iran and Pakistan. It may be that we will
have to go in there with boots on the ground with allied forces in order
to prevent a nuclear attack. Maybe in the future the entire Middle East
will become fenced off entirely from the rest of the civilized world -
similar to the Gaza Strip.

This is such an absurd turn of events. Why did the Iraqi army give up
so easily against ISIS? IMO, the Iraqi army was infiltrated with
sympathizers of ISIS. The officers of the army were probably paid off
by ISIS to run away with their subordinates and leave the American
vehicles and equipment to the militants.
Maybe they were just scared?
Maybe the US should put self-destruct devices in their next bunch of
free gifts to the middle east..
It appears that the Iraqi army does not want to fight and are willing
to be subjugated by the militants. In the end, they are willing to
let the Christians and other minorities to be killed as sacrifices to
the militant overlords.
