Update on the Situation in Iraq

On Saturday morning, President Obama delivered an update on the situation in Iraq from the South Lawn of the White House. The President detailed the progress of current American operations in Iraq, and spoke about what the operations mean for our country.

Last week, U.S. forces began conducting targeted airstrikes against terrorist forces who were advancing on the city of Erbil, in addition to conducting humanitarian airdrops to Iraqi men, women, and children stranded in northern Iraq. Our forces have already delivered thousands of meals and gallons of water, and will continue to protect American personnel in Iraq.

Why is the President sending these messages? What does he want from me?

It was an appeal to support the Tories in the run up to the election. It was just before he announced he may try to stand for a seat (if that makes sense) at the 2015 elections

I had one from Boris too, a few weeks ago it was Grant Shapps. They both asked me to send them a tenner.

I got one from Grant Schapps yesterday - Marked it as spam, and deleted it.
