Clearly the Islamic State has been crippled by those U.S. airstrikes. “Islamic State Storms Town in Western Iraq, Kills 19 police: Officials,” Reuters, December 13, 2014:
Islamic State fighters stormed a town in Iraq’s western Anbar province on Saturday, killing at least 19 policemen and trapping others inside their headquarters, in the latest attack in the desert region where it controls large amounts of territory, officials said.
Islamic State seized the town of al-Wafa, 45 km (27 miles) west of Anbar’s capital Ramadi on Saturday after starting its assault early on Friday.
With the capture of al-Wafa, Islamic State now controls three major towns to the west of Ramadi, including Hit and Kubaisa. Islamic State and government forces have been bogged down in a months-long battle for Ramadi.
Al-Wafa fell in a surprise attack that drew fresh attention to the Iraqi government’s struggle to arm Sunni tribes in western Iraq who are fighting Islamic State.
“Police forces have been fighting Islamic State fighters since Friday, but lack of ammunition forced it to retreat and losing the town. I’m frustrated because we were left alone without support,” said Hussain Kassar, the town’s mayor….

Logical conclusion: these “air strikes” are nothing but a face saving strategy, Obama WILL NEVER destroy his masters. NEVER.
The US has enough military power to annihilate ISIS in a matter of HOURS, but the Oval Office’s masters (the Muslim Brotherhood – i.e. ISIS) said: NO WAY!

Sadly, I don’t see that changing after Obama, even if Lying Hillary loses the elections.

You’re right, it won’t. The whole system is corrupt, both parties are politically correct. They both need to go. Only the people can remove them from power.
They’ve done it in Egypt, the West should do the same:
