Statement by the Press Secretary on Iraq
The United States strongly condemns the recent attacks in Iraq by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). We offer our condolences to the families of those killed and underscore our commitment to assist the Iraqi people as they confront the threat that ISIL poses to Iraq and the region. ISIL’s recent actions in Mosul and surrounding areas demonstrate once again that these extremists seek nothing but death and destruction. The United States will stand with Iraqi leaders across the political spectrum as they forge the national unity necessary to succeed in the fight against ISIL. We will work with Congress to support the new Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund, which will provide flexibility and resources to help Iraq respond to emerging needs as the terrorist threat from ISIL continues to evolve. Under the Strategic Framework Agreement, we will also continue to provide, and as required increase, assistance to the Government of Iraq to help build Iraq’s capacity to effectively and sustainably stop ISIL’s efforts to wreak havoc in Iraq and the region.
All is going as planned in the islamofascist White Hut.
Way to late, the middle east has been lost. Are the saudis getting nervous yet.
We heard about like everyone else...on the news.
STRONGLY worded letter to follow.
Yeah, they’ll stand with the leaders of Iraq, down in the basement somewhere, cowering in fear, getting out their spin machines, just like they did with Benghazi.
Strong condemnation and condolences! I knew Barack wouldn’t let us down!
Didn't see this coming ...
Jordan and Saudi Arabia both are.
....and if they don’t stop, the next letter will be in ALL CAPS!.............
Awwwww.
Widdle man cant use his pen and phone toys to make them stop?
Way to late, the middle east has been lost. Are the saudis getting nervous yet.

They will swing hardline Islamist before it comes to them. Our ‘friends’ the Saudis will out-jihad the jihadists, and funnel money to them to keep them at bay.
And the blood of all our fallen is on your hands, soetoro. Although we all know too that that’s what islamists wallow in.
Yes, “....we will reach out to the ISIL and implore them not to kill so many people as they take over the whole country. We want to remind you that we would not even care about Iraq if George Bush had not lied..... Maybe we’ll drop a few MREs on the ground for the Iraqi’s to have something to eat....”
(from the WH)
Yeah but where is the LINE!
Without the LINE how can every know obama is serious.
So Obama finally read about it in the paper?
Now, take the rest of the week off...
Yesterday it was ISIS, now it’s ISIL. I can’t keep up with obozo’s friends anymore!
Meanwhile, Obama is nowhere to be found.
