U.S. President Barack Obama urged world leaders on Friday to do more to safeguard vulnerable nuclear facilities to prevent “madmen” from groups like Islamic State from getting their hands on an atomic weapon or a radioactive “dirty bomb.”

Speaking at a nuclear security summit in Washington, Obama said the world faced a persistent and evolving threat of nuclear terrorism despite progress in reducing such risks. “We cannot be complacent,” he said.

Obama said no group had succeeded in obtaining bomb materials but that al Qaeda had long sought them, and he cited actions by Islamic State militants behind recent attacks in Paris and Brussels that raised similar concerns.

“There is no doubt that if these madmen ever got their hands on a nuclear bomb or nuclear material, they would certainly use it to kill as many innocent people as possible,” he said. “It would change our world.” …

“Madmen must not be allowed to get nuclear material”

Says the guy who’s done every possible in his 7+ years in office to prop up the Mad Mullahs, starting with siding with them over the reformers during the ‘09 Iranian election protests and ending with him essentially giving them $150 billion in sanctions relief, which provided them with all the money they’ll ever need to complete their nuclear ambitions, including the destruction of both Israel (”The little Satan”) and the U.S. (”The Great Satan”).

Hussein Obama essentially handed nuclear weapons to the craziest group of SOBs on earth nukes after making sure their iron-fisted sharia regime was secure from being overthrown. And now he has the chutzpah to to say that we must keep nukes away from madmen. Obama is the maddest of the mad.

What a bunch of BS.

He just gave Iran $150 billion to go buy some nukes from the Russians.

America is dying and the topic of the day is kids crying because they see chalk drawings on the sidewalk or this perverted sex thing LGTBGBTA or whatever.

Just a thought. In the Soviet Union everyone knew that Provda was completely lying about everything. So why did they watch the television news?! Because they knew that exactly the opposite was the truth!
