Nothing to worry about. I think this situation will be settled shortly. I understand that we have prepared TWO red lines. As Isis is reeling from the red lines we are preparing no less than 4 progressively harsh tweets to be delivered within a week. If there's anything left of Isis they will then be subjected to The Ice Bucket Challenge.
