The Kurds really are good people apart from their problems with Turkey. Any American who walked into a Kurdish village would be treated like a rock star. They have some beautiful women too!

In the video, he says 'Daesh' -- that is a slang term for ISIS.

Does anyone think that the goal of these organisations is to try and bankrupt the US? The people high up in Isis must have known they stood no chance against them

[Lamborg]

Sad that in the 1970s these places used to look beautiful...now its a buncha rock villages with some sheep fukking extremists

[Tetrahydro]

that hill reeks of freedom

The Kurds have problems with everyone. They occupy a region of every country in that area. Whenever they have a problem, they get a bigger country to back them up/deal with their problem. Whether it's an issue with Iran, Iraq, Turkey, or Syria.

They love America because Americans have often come to their aid for one reason or another. Whether it's been because the Kurds have had issues with Iran, Iraq, or Syria. (Not Turkey so far, to my knowledge at least, but that's mainly due to the US having good relations with Turkey, among other Western powers).

They essentially get other people to fight their wars for them, as is the case now. Smart, but that method of policy won't last forever.


The entire fuking region is a shiit show. I honestly think it's best to leave that whole mess for themselves to clean up, not the West. Dragging billions of dollars, lives, and resources into an unachievable goal. You would have to eliminate all threats for the goal to be achieved. Simply driving a group of people back won't do it. Neither will killing them all, as the people themselves aren't the issue, but the flavour of ideology/thought they hold. And that's not something you can just shoot from the sky and hope it goes away.

There's been fighting between the Kurdistan Workers' Party and Turkey for 30 years which has left more than 40,000 dead.

Bread and Circus in the modern era. The internet and YouTube replace the Gladiatorial combat in the Colosseum. OP, you realize you are cheering the deaths of human beings?

Even if they are "evil" in your eyes, you should never enjoy the act of having to end people's lives. We kill because we have to, don't celebrate it

[jambus572]

Cool to see them hitting their target but pretty amazed any American can be bothered to cheer this chit any more. Your country is drowning in debt, whilst the world continues to dislike your foreign policy to the extent you sound hypocritical when you call Putin out for his antics.

Each of these strikes costs in the order of half a million dollars in munitions alone, all so you can blow up equipment that ISIS picked up from your own leftovers when you pulled out of Iraq... Staggers me that you find this worth applauding.

[PredatoryLender]

You making Islam mad. Allah Snakbar.

Any group of people enslaving women because they aren't the same sect of Islam and beheading and torturing innocent men for the same reason deserves to die a horrible, painful death

[Jessome]

This is retarded. 5 confirmed kills and Murican Misc goes nuts.

5 Less ISIS goat fukers than a few days ago, why wouldn't there be celebration

[GnarlySheen]

This is retarded. 5 confirmed kills and Murican Misc goes nuts.

Sorry your country has nothing to do with this awesomeness. America, rulers of the world , kings of everyone.
