Talkin' It Ain't Walkin' It

Had we as a country decided to ignore the Yezidi at the top of Mt. Sinjar, we'd have ignored the
fact that when ISIS turned guns on them, they'd have used guns 'made in the U.S.A.'..
I'm glad POTUS pointed out that when Iraq soldiers turned from the fight with ISIS in droves, they
left their weaponry behind. ISIS also got their hands on U.S. tanks and weapons in the Syria fight.
The news media can talk and talk to put forth possible scenarios which fit the pictures of their own
philosophies of what to report, what to leave out of reports, and how to report. The media, however,
can't walk in the shoes of an entire people dying and being killed, then rescued, from a mountain top.
