Chuck Norris is right?

They have a cool acronym like SPECTRE or COBRA, and an evil overlord clad in black robes who wants to conquer the world. ISIS is more of a classic Hollywood bad guy than Al Qaeda, who are more of a franchise of independent cells, like McDonalds, with fewer fiberglass clowns.

Wait a minute. COBRA isn't an acronym !
 
I just love how ISIS is everyone's favorite new hobby horse. Everything has to do with ISIS these days. Price of gas going up? ISIS! Out of every cheese at the cheese shop? ISIS! Full House re-runs interrupted by live footage of car chase? ISIS! Flaming bag of dog poop on your front porch? ISIS! Ingrown toenail? ISIS! Waiter, there's a hair in my soup! ISIS is trying to kill us all!

What about Al Queda? Can't someone give them some love?

Well, you gotta admit ISIS has done just about everything possible to make themselves obnoxious,
 
We are very off track now.

You got a couple of serious answers up thread. We are not so much off track as we are out of track. There really is nothing left to discuss.

The Jade Helm excercises are being held on private property out of sight of the public. It is not a show of force. It is not a demonstration of power. It is not an intimidation tactic.

Ryu238, Is there any reason not to declare end-of-thread?
 
Also, wasn't the whole bombing, invasion, occupation, subjugation, nation building, surgin', etc in Iraq an adequate show of force? I mean, what on earth is an out-of-the-way, routine military exercise in Texas, that would not have been noticed by anyone if wing-nut conspiracy theorists hadn't flipped their lids, going to add as a show of force on top of all that showing of force we've done directly on the ground in the air in Iraq over the last 30 years?

"Erm, I think we're all beginning to lose sight of the real issue here, which is: what are we going to call ourselves? And I think it comes down to a choice between "The League Against Salivating Monsters," or - and this is my personal preference - "The Committee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society." Erm, one drawback with that - the abbreviation is C.L.I.T.O.R.I.S."

Ok good point. Still it was somewhat plausible.

Well, no, it was not plausible in any way. See posts #8 and #31. If you are on a mission from God, then there is no enemy training excercise in the world that will deter you.
