Secretary of State John Kerry has said nearly 40 nations have agreed to contribute to the fight against the militants. But it remains unclear which countries are on that list and the precise role they'll play.

Obama's coalition will look like Bush 43's coalition, not Bush 41's coalition.

Define "allies."

Countries that actually may help with either info, money or whatever.

IMO, the only help that counts is ground troops, because it's grunts who take territory and win land wars, not fly boys.

The opposite of ISIS is SISI.
No one wants to take on ISIS, they are all SISIs.

So will this be a good thing or a bad thing in your view?

Obama's coalition will include only the blue states. No other states or nations are going to bite.
ETA, he will get the DC and Puerto Rico too along with the Virgin Islands.

Besides France and the Brits if anyone thinks other countries are going to jump in on this I've got some real estate I'll put on you right.
ESPECIALLY the camel humpers.

This is yet another thing that will likely make Kerry look like the fricking clown he is.
Anyone else remember the 2004 debates when Kerry started ripping Bush a new a-hole for pushing forward in Iraq without France and one or two more Western Euro countries?
Bush's counter at the time was "You forgot Poland" and playing up their contributions.
Now that Kerry is having to assemble a coalition to take on ISIS in Iraq, even the British are telling him to go frick himself. And countries like Poland who were part of Bush's coalition likely don't trust Obama or Kerry because of the crap they've pulled with the Ukraine, Israel, etc.

A bad thing. All these allies are going to do is hold our coats while we do all the fighting and dying.

40 countries? Was that list made by the same person who gave Obama the list of 57 states.
