Back from his vacation, President Obama is scheduled to meet with Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel Monday for an update on the series of air strikes launched against the Islamic State (IS) in Iraq.
Obama may increase military action against the terrorist group after the beheading of American journalist James Foley, as members of his administration continue to escalate warlike rhetoric.
When people harm Americans, anywhere, we do whats necessary to see that justice is done, Obama said in a statement during his vacation on Marthas Vineyard last week.
Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes signaled Friday that the United States viewed Foleys death as an attack on America.
Clearly, the brutal execution of Jim Foley represented an affront, an attack, not just on him, but hes an American. And we see that as an attack on our country when one of our own is killed like that, he said.
Last week, Hagel explained that IS had grown beyond anything that we've seen," posing a new paradigm of threats to this country."

Wonder what they are committing the troops to do.
It will be a bigger job than Obama will commit the necessary forces to do the job right. He will want it done in a ridiculous time frame. He has a history of that.
Going to squeeze him in before going on vacation to relax with 25 days of golfing at a cost to the tax payers of $12,000,000.00.
If anything happens he will read about it in the news paper during a pause in his golfing schedule.
Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dummer.
One of the analysts on Fox News had this one nailed.
An increasing number of Obama advisors (apparently including Hagel) are coming to the conclusion that he HAS to act against ISIS.
Their job is to convince Obama. And by all indications, thusfar it has been No Sale.
hey bammy....we have these things called aircraft carriers and submarines....../sarc
Two completely worthless former senators making military strategy, I guess based on the fact that UpChuck was a sergeant during VN. Many suffered and died when another former German Army corporal made his own strategy to rule the world. Guessing they figure two socialist heads are better than one.

Well, we know Foley just did.
Report: Obama waited a month before ordering the James Foley rescue attempt
Whatever the military requests as the minimum required, 0Bozo will give them 1/3 of that to work with and expect the job to be completed and everybody out by the next election.
Oh Barney...did you fart again...lovely, just lovely.
Hagel and Obama meeting about strategy on ISIS?
Would that be military strategy or PR strategy?
God help us if it’s military strategy. The two together don’t even rise to the level of Pu**y. So sorry, but it’s true.
obama——such a man of knowledge!!!
Community Organizer 0bama meeting on the golf course with Buck Private Hagel on Strategy against raghead islamic sub-humans
Prime Minister Soros will be on VTC. His deputy, Valerie Jarrett, will chair the meeting. Obama will be given a decoder ring and a squeaky toy to keep him quiet while the “adults” are talking.
Uh-oh - - - .
Looks like Hagel is going to “spend more time with his family.”
“An increasing number of Obama advisors (apparently including Hagel) are coming to the conclusion that he HAS to act against ISIS. Their job is to convince Obama. And by all indications, thus far it has been ‘No Sale.’”
That’s going to take some doing convincing Obama to act against himself!
We should do that IMO.
Send home the Islamists in Gitmo and in our prisons.. one piece at a time.
