Syria

 ISIS's Cruelty Toward Women Gets Scant Attention - Haleh Esfandiari (Wall Street Journal)  ISIS fighters are "rewarded" by being allowed to have their way with captured women. To the men of ISIS, women are an inferior race, to be enjoyed for sex and be discarded, or to be sold off as slaves. From ISIS-captured territory in Syria, we saw a photograph of a line of women, covered from head to toe and tied to one another by a rope, as they were being led to a makeshift slave market. Little girls were married off to men many times their age. Although Islam requires that marriages be based on consent, consent does not appear to exist in the lexicon of ISIS fighters. Why are there are no demonstrations in Western and Muslim societies against this barbaric onslaught on women and girls?

United States
On Thursday, September 11, President Obama finally announced that the U.S. has a strategy. I urge you to read Justin Logan's commentary in USA Today. In it, he makes the case that “we can't fix other countries' political pathologies at an acceptable cost.” (Look at Iraq and Libya). The U.S. “response to the Foley and Sotloff killings should be simple: punishment.” What do you think?
Fact Sheet: Strategy to Counter the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) (White House)
Report: U.S.-Israeli Misunderstanding Led to Breakdown of Gaza Truce(Jerusalem Post) According to the report, the Americans mistakenly led Israel to believe that Hamas accepted an unconditional 72-hour cease-fire when in fact the Palestinian Islamist group never gave its consent to refrain from attacking Israeli troops on the ground in Gaza.

Yemen

Are you as upset as I am by all the Israel bashing in the U.S., Europe and Scandinavia? When you hear or read about civilian casualties in war please consider the information below. Think about the civilians, aka non-combatants, when you hear demands for action in Syria or Ukraine or that the US is taking action in Somalia or Iraq. Civilian deaths are always going to be part of war; are the deaths proportionate to a reasonable military objective? Are they worth it?

When reading about contradictory claims of non-combatant Arab casualties during the 50-day Hamas -Israel war, aka Operation Protective Edge, that began on July 8, it's important we understand the numbers in context. Of course civilians died and I for one am horrified by the pictures of children suffering. However, war sucks and as we consider “boots on the ground” and more drone strikes to counteract terrorist threats, let's remember that in fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, U.S. and coalition forces reportedly killed one combatant for every 3 to 4 noncombatant casualties. Did U.S. and coalition forces, and Israeli troops, take steps to limit “collateral damage?” Of the Palestinian dead in the Gaza Strip who were not members of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad or other terrorist groups: How many were relatives or neighbors killed in an attack on Hamas positions, especially since many of these positions were in schools, mosques, hospitals or residences in highly-populated areas, placed there in violation of the laws of war specifically for their “human shield” potential? How many were Arabs killed by Hamas as “collaborators”? Of the 4,500 rockets fired by Hamas and its allies, 875 fell inside Gaza, meaning Hamas dropped explosives on its own people. How many Arabs were killed by Hamas friendly fire? How many were natural deaths that occurred during the fighting? Let's also recall that had Hamas and its partners not fired rockets, mortars and missiles into Israel just prior to and during Operation Protective Edge, had it not built an extensive tunnel network into Israel to stage mass kidnappings and massacres, and had it not rejected or quickly broken seven cease-fires or cease-fire proposals, there would have been no casualties among Gazans, combatants or non-combatants. *
