Obama Has No Islamic State Policy

[Clean]

.... that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, should it? ISIS has only taken over large parts of Syria and Iraq so far and threaten to bring jihad to the White House. I guess Obama plans to be out playing golf when they do.

The Link

He has, however, invented a new diet. The Obama diet is guaranteed to work. You just let Putin eat your lunch everyday and you'll lose weight (and prestige in the eyes of the rest of the world).

ditto what clean said.

Reminds me of a f-ed up joke I heard the other day.

What is Obama's policy on beheading? He be heading to the golf course.

 

[Horn6721]

If anyone watched BO this morning ( from Estonia but broadcast LIVE on Foxnews) not only does he have no policy on islamist groups he doesn't show any concern over Americans being beheaded by ISIS.
Oh sure he is going to have talks with other nations and maybe come up with a plan to reduce them to a ' manageable' state
WTF does that even mean?

Could he really be that stupid? He has paid no attention even t the briefings we now know he got for the past YEAR on ISIS has there even been any sigh islamists( no matter the name ) can be reduced to a manageable state
OH wait why Yes. BO told us HE"D " decimated" Al Q

Even loyal DIFI is fed up with him . In the meantime ISIS and all the others continue to grow ad get even more brutal.

Ukraine, Palestine/Israel, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria.

All on fire and all on Obama's watch. I thought that if Barack Obama just got a chance to talk with these people, they would all love us and we would all live happily ever after as a result.

What happened to all of that?

 

[dillohorn]

Obama has no clue about anything. Golfing while "Rome" is burning.

you:
In reply to:

How would you define success for that statement? "

excellent question . since it was Bo who said the goal of our effort should be to diminish the extremist group( ISIS) to a" manageable problem " you should ask him.

I don't think it is remotely possible for BO to do.

 

[Seattle Husker]

You said "islamists (no matter the name)"? Is it only ISIS that you feel needs to be "reduced to a manageable state" or all jihadists?

Getting ISIS to a "manageable state" is challenge enough, I don't think there is a solution for the jihadist problem spanning the globe. At least, I'm not smart enough to do it. I was hoping you were.

The one surprising element among the myriad of foreign policy fires going on is Russia. I'm trying to understand their angle at inciting another Cold War. Is it hubris? A fear of Western ideals being on their borders and potentially overwhelming their Oligarchy? Maybe a yearning for their Cold War power?

What part of this did you not understand
"excellent question . since it was BOwho said the goal of our effort should be to diminish the extremist group( ISIS) to a" manageable problem " you should ask him. ""


I did not say that. BO did
as I DID say I do not think there is any way of getting ISIS to a ' mangeable" level.

IMO we passed being able to do that long ago.
We either have to obliterate them along with a ton of other muslims who live around them or we better pray there really are enough moderate muslims who will rise up and take back their peaceful religion.

 

[Mr. Fiesta]

This is how you define a policy Taking notes, Obama?

I'm confused...help elucidate this for me because the only words that you leveraged from your statement and the quote you attributed to Obama were "manageable state". Of course, he also used it in context to ISIS and you decided to generalize and say "islamists (by any name" even extending it to some inane AQ reference. I asked you specifically about the context because you deliberately, as it par for the course, took the comment out of context and peanut buttered it to a worldwide jihadist problem as if there is some simple solution.

So again, I'll ask what is your solution to the "islamist (by any name)" problem?

Obama should be criticized for being slow to react to ISIS.

You should be criticized for the continual attempt to pull Obama quotes out of context like this one and the previous "ISIS is JV" (Obama - January) quote that you compared to Hagel's description of ISIS in August.

Context is important. You don't need to embellish or twist the words to be critical. Leave that to the right-wing blogosphere.

 

[huisache]

ISIS clearly constitutes an immediate threat to the US homeland.

We should launch an all out assault, air, sea and ground on Iceland at once. Obama is such an idiot

 

[Mr. Fiesta]

Their policy appears to be to go after them if attacked. What is Obama's again and how long did it take him to say anything about having one?

 

[Uninformed]

Clearly stating that you have no plan is an idiotic statement that would get any one of us managers fired. Then blaming it on the pentagon doubles up on that stupidity. The Pentagon has warned Obama on the threat for over a year and 6 months befoe Obama's JV statement. Further, the Pentagon has multiple plans regarding ISIS. It is Obama who has no clue how he wants to proceed. And it is Obama who spends little time with Pentagon planners to help develop a plan. And it is Obama who refuses to work with Congress and develop a consensus.

Stop digging. You clearly had not heard BO's speech in Estonia ( even though it was shown LIVE on Fox News)
For 2 posts you tried to make it out that I was the one who said we should reduce ISIS to a manageable state.
Even after o pointed out to you that BO said that you persisted in trying to make it as though I said it.
NOW apparently you have seen the news and know as I sated BO is the on who wants ISIS reduced to a manageable state.

Now you are trying to act all coy and pretend you can't understand what I mean when I posted
any sign islamists( no matter the name ) can be reduced to a manageable state
Note the phrase ' no matter what the name. why I believe that would include ISIS, the very name BO used.
But that could also include al Q,
Husker would you say al Q has been reduced to a manageable state?
Give it up and actually watch or read BOs words and stop being silly.

A lot of what Putin says is for domestic consumption and the Russian people seem to be eating it up. His approval ratings in Russia are over 90 percent.
