Sorry, wrong intelligence info.

Do we not have a thread about this already?

I'm sure WORLD NEWS aka Washingtonpost will have something coming up in their sleeve to counter this horrible rumour.

It happens in war, its an awful thing that happens but that is a fraction of the civilians ISIS kills, We are trying to end them to save lives.

There certainly are a lot of these bombings going on today, this is the third article I've seen.

We need more threads on the same story.

70 dead, 100 dead.. 140 dead.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Trying to justify the killing of innocent women and children as necessary casualties of war just because America must always look like the good guy in your eyes. What the hell is wrong with you? You got some serious "America can do no wrong" fan boy syndrome homie.

Does this need 2 threads?

How many threads do we have when terrorists bombing happen on US soil? Yet, this topic shouldn't have an equal amount of attention? In both cases lots of innocent civilians died.

One per each event, with duplicates being closed down in order to concentrate the discussion in a single thread, to avoid cluttering on the forums.

Why should this one be treated differently?

In order to get to your destination one must sacrifice. This was justified.

What destination is that? US killing innocent civilians, necessary or not, will likely just result in more terror acts against the US. Your argument is completely fruitless. The only destination on this path is more war and death.

Im not even America and what do you suggest? Let ISIS do what it wants and kill hundreds of more people? Civilian casualties are awful but will happen, its impossible to avoid and is childish to think it is. America isn't the only one in this fight, Canada, UK, France. All involved. Please, give me some options of how to stop ISIS with zero civilian casualties, Im listening.

How about simply making a truce with ISIS. You stop bombing us and we will stop bombing you. I know diplomacy and negotiation is a pretty crazy thought right?

This is very naive. ISIS doesn't want peace or a truce. They've made that abundantly clear.

what sane person becomes the enemy of united states? they killed my father! now im gonna show em! with my ak-47... those fucks were terrorists to begin with, they wanted something to trigger them if this does.

And you speak for all of ISIS? What they have made clear is that they are pissed off at us for killing innocent Muslims through drone strikes, they want us out of their country, and they want us to stop bombing them. Makes a lot of sense actually.

I truly don't think most Islamic terrorists understand how large and powerful the US is. A lot of the issue is ignorance and adherence to dogmatic ideas.

I'm not a member, I just pay attention to what they say and the videos that make it onto liveleak.

And you speak for all of ISIS?

ISIS isn't Occupy Wall Street or some nebulous "movement", it has defined leaders, it has defined goals, it has a charter. The problem is that charter fundamentally spells out that they don't care for anyone who isn't muslim (or more accurately, their version of it) and that this world is for them, not you.

Ever tried to "negotiate" with a pro-lifer about abortion? Now imagine that pro-lifer is also angry, unstable, sees you as an infidel and has an abundance of weapons and no compunction about putting your dead ass on youtube
