SEPTEMBER 27, 2014 The Khorosan Group Does Not Exist It’s a fictitious name the Obama administration invented to deceive us. By Andrew C. McCarthy
We’re being had. Again.
For six years, President Obama has endeavored to will the country into accepting two pillars of his alternative national-security reality. First, he claims to have dealt decisively with the terrorist threat, rendering it a disparate series of ragtag jayvees. Second, he asserts that the threat is unrelated to Islam, which is innately peaceful, moderate, and opposed to the wanton “violent extremists” who purport to act in its name.
Now, the president has been compelled to act against a jihad that has neither ended nor been “decimated.” The jihad, in fact, has inevitably intensified under his counterfactual worldview, which holds that empowering Islamic supremacists is the path to security and stability. Yet even as war intensifies in Iraq and Syria — even as jihadists continue advancing, continue killing and capturing hapless opposition forces on the ground despite Obama’s futile air raids — the president won’t let go of the charade.
Hence, Obama gives us the Khorosan Group. The who?
There is a reason that no one had heard of such a group until a nanosecond ago, when the “Khorosan Group” suddenly went from anonymity to the “imminent threat” that became the rationale for an emergency air war there was supposedly no time to ask Congress to authorize.
You haven’t heard of the Khorosan Group because there isn’t one. It is a name the administration came up with, calculating that Khorosan — the –Iranian–Afghan border region — had sufficient connection to jihadist lore that no one would call the president on it.
The “Khorosan Group” is al-Qaeda.

It sounds like the name of a brokerage firm.

Everything they say is a lie, with a purpose.
If they can invent a movie trailer as the cause for the killing of Amb. Stevens, they can invent a whole group of terrorists.
With this administration, few would actually be shocked at their doing so.
The People's front of Judea. Get them next.
i thought it was the Japanese looking dudes from Star Wars.
From the article...:
.....”The jihad, and the sharia supremacism that fuels it, form the glue that ‘unites the parts into a whole’... a ‘worldwide’ ideologically connected movement rooted in Islamic scripture ,...that can project power on the scale of a nation-state... and that seeks to conquer the West...... The president does not want us to see the threat this way.”.......
Until the government leaders and representatives see Islam as a “worldwide ‘political’ movement”, using a false mask of religion only to keep it’s followers subject, then this is not going to be addressed nor handled as needs to be.
I guess Mohammed wasn't a real Muslim then.
The Principles of Allah
If you condemn murder you condemn Mohammed.
If you condemn thievery you condemn Mohammed.
If you condemn rape you condemn Mohammed.
If you condemn pedophilia you condemn Mohammed.
If you condemn terrorism you condemn Mohammed.
If you condemn Mohammed you condemn Islam.
exactly
Again?
Well, I heard Michelle Bachman say The House Intelligence new about Khorosan for the last two years.
So no, this isn’t an invention.
They are a splinter group or a franchise.
It airs right after the McLaughlin Group
With fragmented groups like this there's a lot of semantics and guesswork and manipulation involved in naming them, in calling them all al-Qaeda, or al-Qaeda off-shoots, or giving them individual labels based on what a particular faction calls itself or on some feature outsiders think descriptive.
I get where he's coming from about the propaganda and deception involved, but whatever they call themselves, there's something out there that sounds dangerous.
Take off of ‘The Kardashians’ as in fake/fraud/phony/standing for nothing etc. etc. Just another sham set up by the Kenyan muslim boy Barry and his toadie state run media.......and the not paying attention sheeple will eat it up.
And they ain't on the run.
Guess I’m just not with it. Can you please explain the pic to me? Thanks.
‘Victimization’ in America is ‘the standard’ for all those without any power or intellect to win any other way.......not just Muslims but all who desire this nation adapt to their agenda.
The left uses it... frivolous law suites abound with it....religions and nationalities use it....America “meat” is up for grabs and they all intend to get their share because .......politicians and governance are doing likewise in their game.
The guy is amazed and informs the woman: "Fifteen minutes can save you 15% on your car insurance."
She's totally bored -- "Everybody knows that, Parker."
The guy then makes up some amazing fact that she couldn't possibly know (because it's ridiculously false).
Obama lied about beating al Qaeda??
We continue to be threatened by al Qaeda??
But Obama is still lying to us and pretending that a new group has arisen??
Obama made up the whole Khorosan thing??
Everybody knows that.
