The U.S. military expanded its war against the Islamic State late Monday by sending waves of warplanes and launching Tomahawk cruise missiles into Syria to attack an array of targets in an aggressive and risk-laden operation that marks a new phase in the conflict.

Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon press secretary, said late Monday that U.S. commanders had deployed a mix of fighter jets and bombers and had also launched ship-based Tomahawk missiles against Islamic State targets in Syria. He said that the operations were ongoing and that more details would not be released until after the strikes were finished.

Kirby said in a statement that “partner nation forces” were also involved in the attacks, but did not identify the other countries.

ISIS is Boko Haram is Hamas is Hebollah is Al-Qaeda is Al-Nusra

There is Nothing ISIS Has Done in Iraq that Boko Haram Hasn’t Already ICC Note: For years Boko Haram, a radical Islamic insurgency, has plagued minority Christian communities across north Nigeri. In 2014, Boko Haram has murdered more than 1,700 Christians, abducted more than 300 schoolgirls (90% of whom have been identified as professed Christians), set-up toll booths for terrorism, and declared towns under its control for the Islamic caliphate. All of this, and much more, was discussed at a recent hearing regarding international religious freedom held by the House Sub-committee for National Security Thursday.  09/20/2014 Nigeria (CBN) - Religious rights advocates told Congress Thursday there's a direct link between religious persecution and terrorism. ... He pointed out that one State Department ambassador who traveled to numerous countries where persecution is taking place, failed to meet with any Christians representatives during those trips. ... That may be one reason Ogebe told lawmakers that the administration has a "see no jihad, hear no jihad, say no jihad" policy when it comes to ISIS in Iraq and the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram in Nigeria. "There is nothing ISIS has done in Iraq that Boko Haram hasn't already done in the last three years," Obege testified. Meanwhile, Ogebe reported to Congress that Boko Haram has taken over six more cities in Nigeria in recent days. And he said the group just forced one of the nearly 300 Christian girls it captured to become a suicide bomber. He says they strapped her with explosives a few weeks ago and blew her up in a school. ...

US State Department: “US Will Continue to Support Israel” In the wake of yesterday’s report in the Wall Street Journal, the State Department deputy spokesperson said that a rigorous examination of arms shipments did not necessarily point to a crisis in relations between the countries. Yesterday it was revealed that the White House was surprised by a shipment of Hellfire missiles to Israel that was authorized by the US military and decided to freeze the deal.

Harf addressed yesterday’s report in the Wall Street Journal that the White House had given instructions to halt a shipment of missiles intended for Israel, saying “Given the crisis in Gaza, it’s natural that agencies take additional care to review deliveries as part of an interagency process.

The Civilized World v. Barbarism - AKA Israel v. Hamas

Much talk has been generated by Israel's War on The Gaza Terrorist Group, Hamas. This conflict has been coming for many years, The assorted skirmishes that have taken place since the Laughable Muslim defeats of 1968 and 1973 are but a symptom of an inescapable ontological reality:

Israel fights this War for the Civilized World while pussilaminous Palestine Terrorists fight for the Barbaric World of Islam.

The Gaza Terrorists have close anologies in Hezbollah, Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda, ISIS and thousands of other Jihad Terrorist groups across Asia and Africa today. They All use the Holy Quran (which is a lot things but "Holy" Is NOT one of them) along with the Hadith (The sayings of Mohamned) and Sunnah (Islamic traditional) as their guide.

They DO NOT REPRESENT RADICAL ISLAM - 

They are JUST BEING GOOD MUSLIMS.

Any Good Muslm believes in JIHAD, or Holy War. Robert Spencer of Jihad Jihad Watch offers a Selection at the Top Level Menu Titled ISLAM 101 - you would be well advised to read ita  Mr. Spencer has authored many NY Times Best Sellers on Islam and Jihad and reminds us all that TERRORISM is natural to Islam, and was an essential part of how the "Religion" was spread through the world.  This remains true today.

Look at the Muslim World: It is still primitive and backward - despite the Billions in Oil Money earned by countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iraq, Iran and the GCC States. What did they do with the money?

1.) Leaders kept a lot for their own enjoyment

2.) They used it for Arms and Armies - to fight with everyone close to them; often other Muslims.

3.) They squandered the rest.

So what remains of the Islamic World?

Simple Barbarity for the most part - nearly a Billion people living in the Middle Ages.

Now, look at Israel: You see a society in the 21st Century, full of the modren world things we take for granted. Watching the Videos of the IDF as it fights this War is instructive: They are using ROBOTS, advanced Radar and Night Vision while the Terrorists rely only on bombs and AK-47's.  While much has been made of their 'rockets" they are akin fo the Soviet-Era Scuds that Saddam Hussein used - they have no guidance systems, and can only act as weapons of Terror.

More insights can be gleaned by photos from Gaza: many of these folks are using DONKEY CARTS - huh?

Yes, DONKEY CARTS while the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN AID GIVEN TO THEM WERE USED BY THE GAZA TERRORIST TO BUILD TERROR TUNNELS AND BUY ARMS AND TERROR MISSILES.  This is why they remain MEDIEVAL in their living conditions.  And YES ISLAMIC LAW IS MEDIEVAL AS WELL.

Islamic Terrorists share one thing: 

They are ALL BARBARIANS - even ISIS with their high tech videos display their true nature with the Savage Beheadings and Crucifixions. 

THIS IS BARBARISM. THIS IS ISLAM.

ISRAEL IS AMERICA IS THE CIVLIZED WORLD.

From Google to Amazon: EU goes to war against power of US digital giants

In Europe there is a growing fear of becoming a 'digital colony' ruled by Silicon Valley, whose giant firms wield huge power over privacy – and like to avoid tax. Now regulators are striking back

Within the salons of the Elysée Palace, along the corridors of the European parliament and under the glass dome of the Reichstag, OldEurope is preparing for a new war. This is not a battle over religion or politics, over land or natural resources. The raw material that Paris, Brussels and Berlin are mobilising to defend is the digital environment of Europe's inhabitants; their enemies are the Silicon Valley corporations that seek to dominate it.

Coal, gas and oil powered the industrial revolution, but in the digital era, data is replacing fossil fuels as the most valuable resource on Earth, and the ability to collect and interrogate it has created organisations with a power that can at times seem beyond the control of nation states. Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google represent, in the words of Germany's economy minister Sigmar Gabriel, "brutal information capitalism", and Europe must act now to protect itself.

"Either we defend our freedom and change our policies, or we become digitally hypnotised subjects of a digital rulership," Gabriel warned in a passionate call to action published by the Frankfurter Allgemeine. "It is the future of democracy in the digital age, and nothing less, that is at stake here, and with it, the freedom, emancipation, participation and self-determination of 500 million people in Europe."
