U.S. president meets with Pentagon officials following weekend airstrikes in eastern Syria
The complex threat of the ISIS extremist group will not be ultimately defeated by guns but through ideology, Barack Obama says.
The U.S. president made the remarks Monday on the military campaign against the Islamic State group after being briefed by Pentagon officials earlier in the day.
He called for co-operation among countries in a fight he said spills over borders. Obama will look to partner with Muslim communities that he said are often the target of ISIS attacks.
"The battle for hearts and minds is going to be a generational struggle," he said.

Islam is fully aware of the benefits of democracy - the US republic and the European parliamentary style, both of which are far superior to any other style Islam has to offer, yet they wish to destroy all but theirs. So what ideas is Obama offering to Islam??

Mark Levin tortured his listeners by playing what obama said yesterday.
Obama wants us to loose against the islamonazis. After watching their savagery no way can they be reasoned with.
Convinced obama would have lost ww2 as well. It took lots of character to wage that war globally and win.

The Vatican along with a selection from the ‘evangelical Protestant’ side have been putting together just what L4B is looking for ... Ecumenism. It’s what’s for supper don’tchaknow. I’m leaving at breakfast, so those still around can dine ‘til their full belly puts them to sleep.

Let's send Berry over there with his big ideas and see how it turns out. We have been dragged into the sewer by the dumb half of this country who elected this douchebag twice. Hundreds of thousands will die in the years to come thanks to the stupidity of the prick with ears.

Welcome to the post-presidency theme for Obama for the next 40+years.
It is HIS ideas he is talking about.

A lot of Obama’s speech about ‘extremism’ was his thinly disguised hated of American conservatives. His attempt to ‘lump them together’ was disgusting.
Shame on his. Shame on the lowlifes in DC who back hatred against their fellow Americans. Shame on democrats...

“The US could give them free Obama-phones with software viruses on them. “
Too radical of an idea for Obama, because it actually might work 2% of the time.
LOL
