ISIS Daesh has become a death cult.
That much is for certain now.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. This is not some rag-tag group of extremists trying to convert the world to their brand of Islam. Someone is putting up a lot of money and resources to keep these guys in business, and in the media. We need to find out who that is, and all will become clear.

And the most frustrating thing is that nobody is going to do a damned thing about it!
What's Ethiopia going to be able to do about it?
Obama?
HashtagPleasedontbeheadpeople?
...not a damn thing!
Why should Obama do anything?
No need to go scampering to Obama's defense. Nobody expects HIM to do anything.
Try answering the question instead of making a stupid remark. Why should America do anything? These people are not American citizens nor did it happen in American waters so it is none of Americas business.
Because they are human beings. That's why. Because the world standing by and watching and then trying to call themselves human in the face of such atrocity is not human at all.
I feel bad for you as a person if you truly feel that nothing should be done.
I guess I'm just not that dead inside

Why should Obama do anything? It's not Americas job to go running in every time Christians are getting killed somewhere. Let Ethiopia deal with their own problems and if that doesn't work call the Vatican.
Obama, flanked by Vice President Joe Biden, Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, outlined the parameters of the request he delivered to Congress earlier that day. He said the bill reflects "our core objective to destroy ISIL," and includes authority for a "systemic and sustained campaign of airstrikes," support and training for forces on the ground and humanitarian assistance.
