U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Thursday would not say the United States is at war with ISIS, telling CNN in an interview that the administration's strategy includes "many different things that one doesn't think of normally in context of war."
"What we are doing is engaging in a very significant counter-terrorism operation," Kerry told CNN's Elise Labott in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. "It's going to go on for some period of time. If somebody wants to think about it as being a war with ISIL, they can do so, but the fact is it's a major counterterrorism operation that will have many different moving parts."

“Retardation” is clearly the operative word.
Have they figured out the Kum-Bah-Yah strategy does not work?
Yeah, okay, John, we were never at war with North Vietnam either...
Sure we are, John-John. It’s seared - SEARED - into my memory.
Or... A flexible, intermittent policing action based on emerging and/or lessening conditions of asymmetrical conflict/non-conflict.
We’re not at war with them and they’re not Islamic. Clear?
Wants them first to create an atrocity here first .....
Why do we even bother with a jackasses like people in this administration?
If we want to continue to survive, the O admin needs to be removed and replaced with pro America people.
Why does the administration INSIST on using “ISIL” when everyone else world-wide says “ISIS”??
Let's see, ISIS or ISIL, if you prefer, is really friends with Obama, but his position as president of the United States requires him to pretend like our sworn enemies are our sworn enemies.

Poor guy. He can't really express his true feelings. He has to do a bunch of sidestepping.
The truth is that the crap is on his shoes and he can't wipe it off without making his friends mad.
ISIS is nothing to lose your head over.
Islam isn’t Islam.
Pray America wakes up
Heaven help us.
Kerry was for the war against ISIS... before he was against it.
We’re not at war. Being “at war” means you’re willing to do whatever it takes to win. We haven’t done that since I’ve been alive.
We’re “In Love” with ISIS?
We’re “Mildly Piqued” at ISIS?
We’re “Inappropriately Interested” in ISIS?
W..... T.... F.....?
Ask the Gators.
"And my Ghenghis Khan 'Nam comrades are still worse than the IS headchoppers."
If there is an ISIS terror attempt on the US before the November election, Obama will blame the “do nothing” congress for not passing his entire 2015 budget.
