While testifying in an open session of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, CIA director John Brennan admitted Thursday:
Despite all our progress against ISIL on the battlefield and in the financial realm, our efforts have not reduced the group’s terrorism capability and global reach.
He added that a significant element of that global reach is because the Islamic State:
… has a large cadre of Western fighters who could potentially serve as operatives for attacks in the West … [ISIS is] probably exploring a variety of means for infiltrating operatives into the West, including refugee flows, smuggling routes, and legitimate methods of travel.
What Brennan did not say -- and what no one in the committee or media challenged him about -- was that he himself is largely responsible for this state of affairs.
As I reported earlier this week, John Brennan is the person who -- after U.S. Muslim groups demanded he do so – “purged” all mention of Islam and jihad from law enforcement counter-terror training materials in 2011.
A chief reason that the Islamic State’s “global reach” has not been reduced is because the U.S. has failed to identify, confront, and oppose the ideology that has enabled it to amass “a large cadre of Western fighters.” That ideology has spread unchecked in the U.S. in large part because Brennan didn’t think it was worth teaching law enforcement about it.
The enforcement of his “purge” edict has been thorough.
Many believe that Brennan is an actual convert. He, Duh Johnson, Samantha Powers and Loretta Lynch speak volumes about our loathsome Chief Executive.
Didn’t he convert to Muslim?
Brennan and Jeh Johnson — Muslims, both. (But only Jeh openly admits it). CIA and DHS are headed by Mohammedans loyal to the Koran. Let that sink in. Oh yeah, and the CIC as well. Rod Serling couldn’t even sell that in a Twilight Zone episode. And we’re actually living it.
Even worse if Valerie Jarret the Iranian muslim runs America. Obama is merely a figurehead.
I heard Brennan pronounce Arabic names like a native Arabic speaker.
It’s like having Nazis and Japs in the government during WWII
So uh...let's make them un-Western.
After all, wouldn't they feel better being at home with their fellow Orks in Nowhereistan?
Not impressed.
Nah, we had Stalin’s spies in the government during WW2, thanks to FDR and Truman.
This current debate about radical Islam is a misdirection. Why? What we are experiencing is not “Radical Islam”, but rather everyday “normal Islam!” Normal Islam is a religious political totalitarian machine of conquest and submission. If we allow ourselves to create a false dichotomy between good Islam and bad Islam, we end up defending Islam itself! Question: Were the normal NAZIs good and the radical NAZIs bad? Were the normal Kamikazes good and the radical Kamikazes bad? Obama, or the demon behind Obama, is brilliant. To be able to lead thinking people down this path is diabolical.
