Obama does not want to destroy ISIS, he wants to manage it
Worse yet, he simply thinks it’s a rational alternative ideology, no worse than our own. He can’t rationalize that we should actually make a moral judgement here. That is a foreign idea to him. It would be wrong.
Obama is stuck on “standing with the Muslims” against the West. He can’t see a reason to repudiate his earlier statement that he would.
He is essentially an ideological member of ISIS/ISIL.
Appalling, isn't it? Many voices that are consistently opposed to US foreign manipulations and warmongering want ISIS totally destroyed, ASAP, whatever world resources can help. Meanwhile, the DC/global elite crowd still seems to be looking for political gain.
US policy created the vacuum and armed the rebels who turned against the US and became ISIS. We have an OBLIGATION to destroy them. And, yeah, that includes working with Assad, Iran, Putin, whoever can help achieve that goal.
