Iraq crisis: As the Sunni terror spreads, its fighters look for wives
Patrick Cockburn,The Independent | Jun 22, 2014, 01.41 PM
BAGHDAD: The Iraqi army and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) are battling for control of Iraq's largest refinery outside Baiji north of Baghdad, with each side holding part of the complex. But in the town of Baiji itself, a few miles away, which is completely under the control of ISIS, residents say they are most frightened by ISIS militants going door to door asking about the numbers of married and unmarried women in the house.
"I told them that there were only two women in the house and both were married," said Abu Lahid. "They said that many of their mujahedin (fighters) were unmarried and wanted a wife. They insisted on coming into my house to look at the women's ID cards (which in Iraq show marital status)."

This is what happens when you jump into bed with lunatics. The moderate Sunni's are in tandem with these Sunni nuts and now there own families are in real danger. There is a good chance you will see some serious infighting soon?

That it took till now for you to outright admit it is how it works with you.

Picked it up right off. Don’t tell me you didn’t notice me challenging your statements from the get go. Just needed time to lay it out. To take enough of your posts to task to present what your style of debating was, (subjective) and to show it was skewed and biased (easy). It took a minute to sort through your posts and show you were misrepresenting many of the facts you posted (The Chinese Royal Fleet). How you folded information into your conversations that were irrelevant to the topics designed to confuse( the history lessons). I thoroughly enjoyed you enlightening us all by suggesting we investigate our facts through some of your sources. Sources like the (Tehran Times) in Iran (that was special). Once that was done your arguments crumbled. I don’t usually like to go where I go with you but the RWDT teaches a person quickly not to worry about it. Give back what you get. Your holier than thou attitude need to be put in check.
Loved doing it.

Still not the brightest bulb in the pack, are you?
The one thing you never did was challenge the facts.
I said that the USA was helping to ship arms from Libyan jihadists to Syria, and posted links. You never once followed up on that to prove whether it was true or false.
I said that the USA has destroyed many democracies and many cultures in its history, and listed a crap-ton of examples. You never challenged any of that, either.
I posted pictures of people who had been killed, and THEN burned, in the Odessa trades Union building, with a link. No real discussion there, either.
I said that the USA has left great smoking ruins of the last several nations it interfered with, pointed to those great smoking ruins of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Sudan and Ukraine, and you came back with... nothing?
For every statement I made, I posted evidence, often multiply-sourced, but all of that was somehow missing from your responses.
In fact, that was the one thing you DIDN'T do - dispute and disprove the facts I brought to the table, and bring evidence of your own for discussion. All you posted about was your feelings, and quite often your feelings about me, for god's sake!
REALLY??? I mean, REALLY??? Wow, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you had a hard-on for me, your feelings are so intense!
And - you're the one who accuses other people of being subjective? Excuse me while I go off and have a good laugh!

Oh, I wanted to respond to this, and forgot:
Quote:
Fwiw ZeroHedge cites the NYTimes, Reuters and WSJ as sources - maybe they don't know they are Gov stooges?
WHAT have I been saying all along about looking at MULTIPLE sources? I even said that I look at Reuters, cnn, yahoonews etc myself. (WSJ requires a subscription, which is a little too stiff for me, which is why I appreciate a source that looks at it for me.)
Sheesh, G. I say things outright, over and over, like...
Look at a variety of sources and This is just a guess but... and you come back a couple-dozen posts later, just to discover that I look at multiple source and that I'm guessing on some items????

Are you sure that you and THGRRI/MIKER aren't the same person?

What we have here signym is a failure to communicate. Everything you suggest I did not address I did, and more to the point I showed my arguments to be spot on. Go back and read the thread again (or not) because it is all there.
I noticed you like to deny past encounters as being complete or suggest that answered questions are still unanswered. You like to litigate argued points that have been settled as well. I have to ask you. Don’t you feel at the end of the debate to start accusing your opponent of what you have been accused of all along, isn’t a bit obvious? That and the name calling has been a signal to me the point we have reached in our discussion. It is all a part of your posting style that allows you to feel satisfied and adjudicated in your favor as the debate winds down. It is now duly noted.
I see in this particular case we have reached the name calling and you wish to litigate the settled points again.
Have fun, Miker says ……..

Later, dude. Much, much later.
