From Fox News:
Two Syrian activist groups said Tuesday that ISIS terrorists have abducted at least 70 Assyrian Christians after overrunning a number of small villages in the northeast of that country.
...It was not immediately clear what ISIS planned to do with the Assyrians. The militants have a long history of killing captives, including foreign journalists, Syrian soldiers and Kurdish militiamen. Most recently, militants in Libya affiliated with ISIS released a video showing the beheading of 21 Egyptian Christians.
But ISIS also could use its Assyrian captives to try to arrange a prisoner swap with the Kurdish and Christian militias that it faced off against in northeastern Syria. There is a precedent: the extremists have released Kurdish school children as well as Turkish truck drivers and diplomats after holding them for months.

How long can the civilized world tolerate these aggressions?
Assyrians, Kurds, Jezidis, Druse, koptic christians, shia, alawite, armenian orthodox christians, armenian catholic christians and many more...
Have you ever seen an ethnical map of the middle east?
The entire region is controlled by Arab dominated nations, just how the Balkans used to be run by the Serbs.
Stories like these confirm to me what I have proposed for a long time, disolve the nations of the middle east, because they are nothing but British and French colonial leftovers.
Create nations in the regions based on ethnical/cultural lines, and you will avoid future conflict.
ISIS appreciates your endorsement of their Caliphate I asume.

That of course, is why Germany invaded France and Russia in WW2 I suppose. :doh
No.
All peoples of Europe have their own nations.
Only 2 peoples of the middle east have their own nations.

And yet there has been plenty of conflict there...
Terrible. I am all for sending weapons and training. America and our allies seem tired of war. The mess in the middle east requires middle east solutions. We should probably think about picking the next dictator until we are ready to take him out in the 2020's.
Whats the point of such a vague comment that could mean anything?!
You always either post substanceless nonsence or wild accusations.
So going to war should be based on if we're in the mood or not?
They've declared Holy War until the death against us already. We'll have no choice. Do you want to fight them there, or here?
Correct. If you do not have the spirit to fight, don't go to someone else's house and start a fight.
As far as the rest, we have a choice. We can fight over there, or stay here and not fight. I am for staying here and not fighting. They are not going to charter planes and get 5000 troops on the ground in Wisconsin. Not going to happen.

Obama is hell-bent on helping Iran with its nuclear program. If that happens, it's a mere matter of time before it's here.
You mean like flying passenger loaded planes into occupied buildings in NYC at morning rush hour....? That kind of starting a fight?
Sticking your head in the sand won't make it go away.
They don't have to....they are already here....Any further aggression with planes don't require chartering anything, just a box cutter.

Are we talking about ISIS or Iran or anything in the ME? ISIS and Iran are separate issues. Iran doesn't require boots on the ground either.

ISIS and Iran are closer related than you might think-Iran has its hands all over the ME, even if its fighting ISIS.
