Barack Obama must have thought ISIS was a DC comics superhero. He had to. It's the only explanation.
We truly have an imbecile for a President. Oh sure, he's great at siccing the IRS on conservatives and spying on innocent Americans but when it comes to foreign policy, he sucks. He was really good at apologizing for America but he is God awful when the 3 am phone rings.
Remember when ISIS was the jayvee?
In the 2012 campaign, Obama spoke not only of killing Osama bin Laden; he also said that Al Qaeda had been “decimated.” I pointed out that the flag of Al Qaeda is now flying in Falluja, in Iraq, and among various rebel factions in Syria; Al Qaeda has asserted a presence in parts of Africa, too.During this time, the Obama administration has been dancing as fast as it can seeking to convince us not to believe our lying eyes. His messages are delivered by the uber-dunce Marie Harf. If there is a bigger idiot in the world than Marie Harf, I am not sure who it is. She has been on a crusade downplaying ISIS as an entity and a threat.“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant,” Obama said, resorting to an uncharacteristically flip analogy.
- The ISLAMIC state in Iraq and Syria "Does Not Operate In The Name Of Any Religion”…
[W]hen pressed by reporters for details on what the United States expects from the other governments in the Middle East, Harf refused to go into specifics on how the administration is working with other countries to eliminate the threat posed by ISIS.- The Foley beheading is not about the United States of America:“Clearly there’s more we can all do to fight ISIL,” she said.
Harf also emphasized the administration’s view that ISIS does not accurately represent the religion of Islam as a whole.
“ISIL does not operate in the name of any religion. The president has been very clear about that, and the more we can underscore that, the better,” Harf said.
"I think ISIL wants to make this about the United States and our actions. And I think what the President was trying to say was that this is not about the United States and what we do. This is about countries in the region coming together to fight a shared threat, and this is not about us."ISIS: “We Will Raise The Flag Of Allah In The White House”
- The Iraqis have to pull themselves together:
ISIL is a threat not just because they kill innocent civilians because of their religion, but because they’re a huge security threat to the stability of certain parts of Iraq. And that’s why throughout this conflict you have seen us continue to ramp up our support and continue to look very urgently at other things we could do to help fight this threat, because at the end of the day we can help the Iraqis, but the Iraqis also have to stand up, they have to pull themselves together, with our help, because this is a threat that certainly they but no one else in the region wants to see grow any more.”- We can't be at war with ISIS because the State Department doesn't believe we're at war with ISIS:

why does the administration call them ISIL but they call themselves ISIS ?
ISIS sounds more ARAB.
Well, Ms Harf, I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong. When are you and Obozo going to pull your heads out of your collective a$$ and smell the roses. Islam is a political cult that needs to be stopped...now. Your boss needs to grow a pair and come up with a policy that protects US citizens, both here and abroad. Oh...and please tell Hillary, if and when she wanders in, it does make a difference.
ISIS and the political leftists around the world hate freedom, the successful in the USA and good people. They love evil in all its forms.
They call themselves The Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, which implies Syria, Lebanon, Israel and parts of Jordan. Al Sham can be translated as the Levant areas. ISIS or ISIL are both acceptable. In their propaganda they refer to themselves as Daesh, which is the Arabic acronym for their name.
ISIS = Islamic Sh!t Islamic Slime IMO.
Do you mean they are too lazy to get a job and work like our traditional norm in the west, which has been eroded by the Nanny State.
They’re down to just IS, Islamic State, now.
Chasing the Yzidi Christians up the mountain and raping and murdering them would not have made news if not for our pilots watching this from above, and Green Berets embedded in with the Kurds.
Murder on the Mountain will probably be seen as the turning point, the reversal, of the Global Left in the history books.
You’re right in regards to IS, I suppose I should have mentioned that, I was just trying to explain why ISIL is sometimes used as opposed to ISIS.
I’d like to think you’re right with the handling of this situation leading to the reversal of the Left. I think that they will lose support of people who are willing to think critically, but by and large, their base of support will still be there.
They love evil, because they are evil.
Very good!
Very good!
Their varsity will grind our current kindergartners into a bloody pulp.
