Obama: ISIS Is Not Getting ‘Stronger,’ We Have ‘Contained’ Them
Breitbart ^ | 11/13/2015 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 11/13/2015 4:57:14 PM PST by GilGil

Friday on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” President Barack Obama seemingly downplayed the threat of ISIS in an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that aired on Friday’s broadcast of “Good Morning America.”

Stephanopoulos asked Obama if ISIS was gaining in strength, to which Obama denied they were.

“I don’t think they’re gaining strength,” Obama responded. “What is true is that from the start, our goal has been first to contain and we have contained them. They have not gained ground in Iraq, and in Syria they’ll come in, they’ll leave, but you don’t see this systemic march by ISIL across the terrain.”

Far worse than Bush’s Mission Accomplished issue, Obama should be highly criticized for this statement but we know he will not.

More than just what happened to the French tonight. Look back to see what Hollande has said about Israel in the past couple days or so. I was listening to Jacob Prasch last night and he itemized about a dozen things that happened in direct relationship to something that was done to the Jews or Christians. I remember when Andrew struck, someone related an event that had happened the day or two before, and the earthquake in LA followed a day of Gay pride exhibitionism (lots of nakedness and sexual acts in open public) that day, with children at the parade.

Yesterday France signed a deal with Iran, but it didn’t give a lot of details. Very likely they signed an agreement to strike Israel if Israel made a preemptive strike against their nuclear facilities.

Nice timing, you bat-eared son of a bitch. I want to hear again about how “civilized countries” don’t have mass killings.

Is “We” is Obama-speak for “Russia”?

““The good news is we have contained Isis. The bad news is that they are contained in Paris, Berlin, Madrid and London.””

ISIS is like a deadly mushroom and Obama has not contained a fungus that matured, then spored off. The infected world now has a very huge problem to deal with.

We are soooo screwed with this administration and his barrage of muslim-loving hacks. People of this country had better wake up - and do so quickly. I fear Democrats are unable to comprehend that they, too, are enemies of Islam and their lives, and the lives of their loved ones, mean nothing to these savage beasts.
