Obama’s JV ISIS takes control of Palmyra in Syria

Obama’s JV has gobbled up more territory today, this time in Palmyra Syria. Frankly, I’m getting rather tired of the media (in America and elsewhere) describing ISIS as ‘militants.’ They are terrorists, not militants. I know that’s difficult for left wing hacks to say or write.

Islamic State militants have taken near complete control of the Syrian city of Palmyra, home to some of the world’s most magnificent ancient ruins.
There are fears that the militants will destroy the ruins, which Unesco has designated a World Heritage site.
Government troops have almost entirely withdrawn from the city following an IS advance, an eyewitness told the BBC.
IS militants have demolished several ancient sites that pre-date Islam in Iraq, including Hatra and Nimrud.
Activists earlier said the group controlled much of north Tadmur, the modern town adjoining the ancient site of Palmyra, after overcoming militias loyal to President Bashar al-Assad.
Hundreds of Palmyra’s statues have been moved to safety but large monuments from the ancient parts of the city could not be moved.
