“Don’t be afraid to see what you see,” President Reagan counseled in his farewell address. We would do well to heed his advice as President Obama attempts to lead America backwards, to September 10. Make no mistake: That was the not-so-subtle message he sent last week during his speech at the National Defense University—a speech that was so full of inaccuracies that one is left to conclude the president is either living in an alternate universe or willfully disregarding the facts. Just consider some of the statements he made.
1. “There have been no large-scale attacks on the United States, and our homeland is more secure.”
In fact, Nidal Hasan killed 13 people and injured 32 others during his shooting rampage at Ft. Hood in November 2009—an attack authorized by al Qaeda’s franchise in Yemen (AQAP). Since the U.S. Army—no doubt following orders far up the chain of command—refuses to classify the Ft. Hood shooting as a terrorist attack, the survivors’ injuries and acts of bravery cannot be categorized as “combat related.”
In addition, the Boston Marathon bombing was a large-scale attack carried out by individuals who were radicalized to jihad and trained by jihadist elements in Russia.
Moreover, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, inspired and trained by AQAP, almost took down a passenger plane in December 2009; and Faisal Shahzad, trained by jihadists in Pakistan, deployed an IED in Times Square in 2010.

“Twerp”, is just about the nicest thing I can say about that worthless POS.
And I'm sure he has a good idea who that caliphate should ultimately be.
How does one surrender to their own side???
The kenyan is LEADING the war. He is not on our side, though,
It has occurred to me in the past that the kenyan would love to have the Caliphate situated in New york or DC.
He was never in the war on terror. He loves his fellow religionists too much.
obama hasn’r surrendered anything, we knmow what side he stands with - he said it himself. he’s on the side of the muslims. everything he’s done confirms it.
It.s a war on jihad and it.s mjust getting hot again.
