Trying to reassure a nation on edge, President Barack Obama said Sunday the Islamic State group "cannot strike a mortal blow" against the U.S., and he warned that overreacting to the Paris attacks would play into extremists' hands. "We will destroy this terrorist organization," he vowed.
Ending a trip to Asia, Obama implored Americans not to let the specter of terror cause them to compromise their values or change the way they live

The last 5 things (Isis is contained..etc..) have been the exact opposite. I hope that string does not continue.

A “mortal blow”? 1/1000 of a mortal blow is enough, don’t you think?

Be on your toes folks, every time 0bama opens his mouth and says stuff like this...bad things happen. That is NO BS! He's like Charlie Brown trying to kick a football. Every time he says something like, "We have ISIL Contained. They are not spreading.", an attack happens. If he forecasted a beautiful day I'd take a coat and umbrella. Puxatawny Phil has a better record than Obama when it comes to telling the future.

He’s right. We shouldn’t let this change the way we live. But we should sure as hell make it change the way THEY live.
And WHETHER ...

Exactly how many dead & injured Americans is a mortal blow?
One? Ten? A thousand?

I was wondering why so many refugees were men and where all the women were. Then a bit of logic with some understanding of the Islamic Cultured pointed to an answer for me. See if this might have something to do with it.
In the Muslim Culture, women/girls are property and not as important. If you are fleeing for your life and can only take what you can carry, I imagine a wife and children would only slow you down and put you at risk. Muslim men must run away and take only what is most valuable to save themselves.
Am I wrong?

No kidding. Then, he’ll dare us, or chide us, to be outraged, then he’ll blame it on Republicans.
