    Semantic quibble: "Sharia" is Arabic for "law." When you say "Sharia law," you are saying "Law law." Maybe that's a small, pedantic beef along the lines of the way "anti-Semitism" has been bastardized, but it's true.

    Well, this just in: al-Maliki to resign.

    Well, that's good. Those ISIS soldiers will surely drop their weapons and shortly you'll here "Honey, I'm home. What's for dinner" at many an Iraqi home.

    Map courtesy of a Twitter feed that World War II began when "Germany overthrew its overlords. It adopted a seperate banking system outside Jewish cartel influence. That is why we made war." Yeah, this is reliable. Shitty reporting, and gullible people believing shitty reporting. Not saying ISIS isn't a threat; just saying this map and the ensuing hysteria is crap, crap that can easily be debunked.

    So the whole premise for this thread is bogus.
