A 75 year old German journalist, Jürgen Todenhöfer, actually managed to embed with ISIS for ten days, according to the British paper, Express:
He spent 10 harrowing days on the ISIS frontline, dodging bullets and death threats, while being chauffeured around by none other than the UK’s own scumbag traitor ‘Jihadi John’ – real name Mohammed Emwazi,
Todenhöfer’s conclusions – detailed in a book called ‘Inside IS – Ten Days In The Islamic State’ – make chilling reading.
He believes the west cannot militarily defeat the self-styled Caliphate rulers and writes: “The terrorists plan on killing several hundred million people.
“The west is drastically underestimating the power of ISIS.”
Hr. Todenhöfer was allowed to embed, according to the Express, because he had been very critical of US policy in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is the only journalist that’s been allowed to leave with, “his head still attached to his shoulders.” He says he came back feeling very pessimistic about the West’s ability to stop IS which he described as, “the most brutal and most dangerous enemy I have ever seen in my life.”
Well, Pilgrims, do we take this threat seriously or not?
Re: “Well, Pilgrims, do we take this threat seriously or not?”
Awww heck no. This is just the same sort of bluster that comes out of Iran. Send in Kerry, he and Obama can sort it out.
I’m a feeling a tad peckish. Pass me that thar sack of corn dodgers.
Perfect.
If ISIS ever pops up in Bidwell Park it will be too bad for them, cause our local liberals will be Johnnie-on-the spot saying, “Hey buddy, you pick up that IED right now and dispose of it properly!” And heaven help the ISIS fool that is caught smoking in a bar or riding a bicycle across campus! The cost of overtime parking in the downtown will bleed them white…. ISIS better not mess with Chico.
Then there’s my neighborhood. We’re a little different. We took down the “Neighborhood Watch” sign a long time ago and put up a, “Thieves Welcome – We Need the Target Practice” sign.
Every lawn has their own sign. My favorite is, “We don’t call 9-1-1 and We Don’t Say Stop or I’ll Shoot” My house is multilingual so my sign says, “Want to meet God? Come inside” in both Spanish and Farsi. We’ve never had a burglary…uh, reported. Imagine that?

Gosh yes, and they will be toast if they think they can get away with using a plastic bag!
