Just for a world news, not really our biggest concern.

By the way, nag wonder lang ko. What if kn unsa sad kaha, kun naa lang only submarine or battle ship ang ISIS.?

President Obama has been unwavering and definitive in declaring he will not deploy U.S. ground troops into combat to fight ISIS militants. Period.

But for the first time since the start of then anti-ISIS offensive dubbed Operation Inherent Resolve, the president volunteered a scenario which he said would change his mind.

“If we discovered that [ISIS] had gotten possession of a nuclear weapon, and we had to run an operation to get it out of their hands, then, yes,” the president told reporters at a news conference in Brisbane, Australia, on Sunday. “I would order it.”

There is no indication that ISIS currently possesses or could easily obtain a nuclear weapon, officials say.

Still, Obama’s declaration of a nuclear weapon in the hands of ISIS is a noteworthy new “red line” – and a very high bar for a U.S. offensive role on the ground.

Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the joint chiefs and Obama’s top military adviser, has consistently kept the door open to deployment of U.S. ground troops in combat situations ever since anti-ISIS military operations began, but has yet to formally recommend it.

Last week, Dempsey testified on Capitol Hill that the Pentagon is “certainly considering” whether to embed U.S. military advisers with Iraqi combat units deployed to the front lines. Obama has also maintained openness to the idea, but already rejected one recommendation to do so.

“Yes, there are circumstances in which [Dempsey] could envision the deployment of U.S. troops. That’s true everywhere, by the way,” Obama said Sunday. “That’s his job, is to think about various contingencies. And, yes, there are always circumstances in which the United States might need to deploy U.S. ground troops.”

Obama is a big joke. This nigger lies and lies. No wonder why I am never voting for any Democrat. Never.

Then it would be impossible for the US to commit it's troops into ISIL battle grounds. I think the statement is just to sway negative speculations and criticisms from it's allies and they could provide their own troops if it is crucially required. I guess that is politically correct.

It's just a NO with sugar coating

boots should have been on the ground when ISIS gained momentum earlier this year.

ISIS brutality, inhumane way of doing things is not worth putting into this life's history...
