France Strikes ISIS

Matthew 24:10,11 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

A day after the Islamic terrorist group ISIS beheaded a French national, French warplanes struck multiple targets inside Iraq.

France’s air force made multiple bombing raids on oil fields that were under the control of ISIS in an attempt to keep the terrorists from using the oil to fund their activities.  The strikes were part of a multinational coordinated assault.

The strikes by France were the country’s first since the start of the assault on ISIS.

The strikes took place as President Obama addressed the United Nations about the ISIS threat.

“The only language understood by killers like this is the language of force, so the United States of America will work with a broad coalition to dismantle this network of death,” Obama said.

Britain is the next country believed to be joining the airstrikes.  Prime Minister David Cameron will be seeking authorization from parliament on Friday.
