Why does ISIS indiscriminately slaughter men, women, and children? It's simple: they believe that if they can create enough chaos, they can hasten the coming of the twelfth Imam, the ultimate saviour of mankind. He will appear with the return of Jesus Christ to finally bring peace and justice to the world.

This comes from the Koran itself, which Muslims believe to be the actual words of God himself, not just an interpretation of God's will by human writers. That said, it must become clear that the intent of ISIS is to intentionally provoke a war with the West. They want war, and they will commitment any atrocity or series of atrocities to see that that goal is achieved.

War is a goal ISIS can and will eventually achieve just because the West will run out of all other options. So why don't the leaders of the Western nations recognize this truth. Are they so stupid as to not believe these nuts. Are they all as naive as Neville Chamberlain was prior to WWII?

He has alienated all of our most trusted allies. He has removed all of our most senior military commanders. He allowed the entire middle east to descend into chaos. He has weakened our military capability to pre-WWII levels. And now he wants the authority to commit what's left of our military to wage war without limits against anyone in any geographic area of the world without limit and without getting prior approval of Congress, all in an effort to salvage the reputation of his failed presidency. His most probable thought is that, if Congress fails to give him this authority, he can blame the continued collapse of the middle eastern nations on Congress, and if war is waged and goes poorly and we must later withdraw, he can blame his successor for botching a war that he had "under control" before he left office.

Mr Barack Obama, sir, history has not forgotten Nero. History has not forgotten Caligula. History will not forget that ISIS is a barbaric organization. And history will not forget or forgive you for failing to abide by your oath or for attempting to destroy this nation. Whether you succeed in that is yet to be seen.

Mr. Obama let his pants slip down a bit when he compared today's Muslim Extremists to the Christian Crusades of 1000 years ago. That kind of statement could only be made by a Muslim taught to hate the west, or a Muslim sympathizer. And what Mr. O failed to point out was that the Crusades were a response to Muslim hordes streaming out of the middle east to butcher European communities that refused to submit to their god.

The Crusaders pushed the Muslim invaders back into their own lands, where they remained for a thousand years. During that time, the West evolved into a more civilized people, while the Muslim radicals did not do so. Now they are on the move again, and our government is unwilling to recognize the threat for what it is despite the abundance of evidence available.
