Looks like everyone is fighting ISIS, even the “moderate opposition”.

While Putin and Assad had meetings to agree on where they can slaughter more Syrian civilians, the heroic coalition of US/Israel/Saudi have been fighting the terrorists. Saudi is the guarantor for human rights and US/Israel are fighting for peace in Syria and for freedom. US have been bombing Iraq in 26 years for peace and to protect our Western freedom values.

The anglo zionist empire created ISIS, used ISIS and now it is time to put them back in the box. Nobody told them that the box was a coffin.

As long as men and woman are treated as 2 races, I dont give much for Your comming out from behind.

Here all gain respect by the way they are and not about flipping coin by gender. Some will say jews invented Islam to keep You down Yourself.

So whats trust ? Give the woman all Your weapons and let them shoot anyone they wish.

So why are we not comming to muslim countries settling there in millions as refugees and without jobs.
