So, Obama announced the start of US military ops vs ISIS in Syria too; the action should be based on a multi-prong strategy revolving around air power deployed in support of Syrian insurgents reinforced so these can seriously tackle the ISIS....

...there was a meeting in Jeddah during which Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and six GCC states (including Qatar) agreed to join coalition that is going to fight the ISIS...

...Turkey declared it can't join because the ISIS is holding 40+ of its citizens hijacked from the consulate in Mosul as hostages....

...Iran and the Assadist regime haven't been invited to that conference, and are thus effectively left out of this coalition...

...representatives of Syrian insurgents are appearing on the Israeli TV to explain that it's pity there will be no US boots on the ground in Syria, but now it's sure there will be an 'all-out war against the ISIS'...

...Bibi is struggling to explain that Israel is involved too (he wouldn't specify how, and I remain sceptic), that it is going to support US action, but that Iran remains 'ultimate terror'...

...all of this within the last 24 or so hours, on the 13 anniversary of 9/11...

...and everybody on this forum fell silent?
