Peter Lucas: Jobs for jihadists -- that should dissuade them! By Peter Lucas Updated: 02/24/2015 08:56:12 AM EST0 Comments

From what I gather, President Barack Obama's prime-time television promise last September to "degrade and destroy" the terrorist threat to the United States has morphed into something akin to "dissuade and annoy."

Clearly "degrade and destroy" has not worked, as the radical Islamic terrorist threat has grown bigger, not smaller, and has spread throughout Europe and across from Italy into Libya

Dissuade and annoy. Heh, heh. I’m stealing that.

Maybe Maria Harf can get “former” jihadists jobs at Home Depot or 711. Can they be interviewed by average Americans without blowing their top and maybe the stores too.

Retired Admiral says ANY thinking American should see Obama strategy ANTI-AMERICAN, PRO-ISLAMIC

Posted by soopermexican on Feb 23, 2015

Retired Admiral James “Ace” Lyons gave a remarkably brief but powerful summation of the threat we face from radical Islam and how we’ve failed to face up to it since before Jimmy Carter.

He concludes with this startling statement, “the Obama administration has a strategy. It’s very simple… It’s anti-American, it’s anti-Western, it’s pro-Islamic, it’s pro-Iranian and pro-Muslim Brotherhood.”

Jobs? They don't need no stinkin' jobs? Why does the west want them to work all the time? What ISIS really wants. http://www.theatlantic.com/features/archive/2015/02/what-isis-really-wants/384980/ “The problem,” he explained, “is that when places like Saudi Arabia just implement the penal code, and don’t provide the social and economic justice of the Sharia—the whole package—they simply engender hatred toward the Sharia.” That whole package, he said, would include free housing, food, and clothing for all, though of course anyone who wished to enrich himself with work could do so. ....When we sat down, he was eager to discuss welfare. The Islamic State may have medieval-style punishments for moral crimes (lashes for boozing or fornication, stoning for adultery), but its social-welfare program is, at least in some aspects, progressive to a degree that would please an MSNBC pundit. Health care, he said, is free.
