ISIS Prediction

I believe that ISIS/ISIL may well have radicalized itself out of existence. The clock is ticking.

It is my prediction that France, with help from the U.S., Britain, Russia and others will conduct a air/ground assault on all ISIS strongholds. Russia will help with the deal that the coalition will not use this effort as an opportunity to remove Assad, and will, in fact, leave his fate in the hands of Russia. I wouldn't be surprised if the coalition effort also included coordinated attacks on sites in Africa, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Increased airstrikes will occur to "soften" targets, but knowing that any real defeat must include feet on the ground, ISIS has crossed a line that will make that happen. Iran and the Saudis will be heavily involved and the ISIS held thought that that there will be a surge of Muslim support for them will be revealed for the illusion that it is.

The clock is ticking against this band of sadistic murderers. While it will take time to organize, time is running out for ISIS.Image result for isis

WHAT DO THE FRENCH AND THE DUTCH KNOW THAT WE NEED TO KNOW?



French, Dutch Politics Rumble European Markets-NYTimes

"Europe’s financial markets showed the strain early Monday after a run of unsettling political news over the weekend from France and the Netherlands raised uncertainties over the commitment of core euro-zone countries to fiscal discipline as austerity policies are weighing on the region’s economies." (http://blogs.wsj.com/eurocrisis/2012/04/23/dutch-french-politics-rumble-european-markets/?mod=google_news_blog)

So what has happened? Basically, President Nicolas Sarkozy lost the first round voting to a socialist and in the Netherlands, budget talks concerning austerity measure collapsed. The French and Dutch are saying NO to austerity-job cuts, tax hikes and appeasing markets-and Yes to jobs and growth. A key quote from De Jager:
"For me it is important, as a message to financial markets, that no matter the circumstances, the Netherlands will continue to strive for budgetary discipline."

And then we have this morning's top Huffington Post story about Mitt Romney: 

MORE FOR WAR,
CUTS FOR THE POOR

 So do you see what's happening? Europe is discovering that "Market Appeasement" policies have been a disaster and a nightmare. Just nod if you can hear me!
