The IS situation is a distraction, but it is hard to rate which issue is more important…. and that is why I gave you a thumbs down.

IS is a branch of Sunni Islam that is out of control. IS is an offshoot of Al Qaeda.

Iran is Shia and that means IS is the enemy of Iran. There is potential that Iran will attempt to enter the fray.

IS is also the enemy of Saudi Arabia. The Sauds have not been able to reel in the fanatics.

There are a few in Libya who are backing IS… if that number grows then there is danger ahead. However, in Libya you have an interesting mix of Muslims who are neither Shia nor Sunni. A lot of them are Sufi and others belong to another sect that is an offshoot of both Wahibbi and Sufi Islam (it moderated over time and is not dangerous to us)… but there are Sunni who are fanatic and they are supporters of Al Qaeda and IS. Clearly there is a real danger that Libya will descend into chaos again. Look out for the role of Qatar where Libya is concerned.

Another danger zone is Egypt and yes Egypt has some concerns where IS is concerned. However, they are busy trying to control the lunatics known as Hamas (not sure if they are Sunni or Shia because they are such lunatics).

Israel has to deal with the lot of them.

The news about Kassig did not disrupt the G-20 meeting. Odumbo did not get his way regarding the non issue of Climate Change. He delivered a speech at the University of Queensland that was to say the least disrespectful to the host nation. Vlad was placed in the naughty boys corner and then took his bat and ball and went home.

In the meantime, the communique from the conference was delivered, and much was achieved in regard to setting future goals in regard to our prosperity.

Mr Irrelevance achieved nothing with his insistence of bringing up a topic that was not on the G-20 agenda because there were more important issues that needed attention.

From the standpoint of the rich Arabian Gulf States, the more of ISIS’ oil trading that can be shut down, the better off they will be. Any big drip in the flow of oil lowers the price. Maybe some of them can kneecap Erdogan. Apparently neither NATO nor the EU can reel in this guy.

Is not preventing Iran from going nuclear a much greater danger to the US than ISIS.

How can we defeat ISIS and not aid Iran in so doing?

Another American beheaded.

Or, as Obama calls it, “Tee time.”
