Obama: IS 'Has No Ideology of Human Value'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 20/8/14 | Tova Dvorin

"Jim was taken from us in an act of violence that shocks the conscience of the entire world," he continued. "He was 40 years old - one of five siblings, the son of a mom and dad who worked tirelessly for his release. Earlier today, I spoke to the Foleys and told them that we are all heartbroken..."

Obama then turned to the subject of IS itself. Over the past day, the terror group threatened to not only 'drown Americans in blood,' but also to kill another journalist, Steven Sotloff.

The Sunni Muslim group follows Al-Qaeda's hard-line ideology, but is not affiliated with Al-Qaeda which has renounced ISIS.

It seeks to re-create a medieval-style caliphate erasing borders from the Mediterranean to the Gulf. It deems Shiite Muslims to be heretics deserving death and has committed genocide against a number of ethnic minorities in Syria and Iraq, including Bedouin and ethnic Yazidi.

"Jim Foley’s life stands in stark contrast to his killers," the President said. "Let’s be clear about ISIS. They have rampaged across cities and villages - killing innocent, unarmed civilians in cowardly acts of violence."

"They abduct women and children, and subject them to torture and rape and slavery. They have murdered Muslims - both Sunni and Shia - by the thousands," he continued. "They target Christians and religious minorities, driving them from their homes, murdering them when they can for no other reason than they practice a different religion. They declared their ambition to commit genocide against an ancient people."

"ISIS speaks for no religion," Obama insisted. "Their victims are overwhelmingly Muslim, and no faith teaches people to massacre innocents. No just God would stand for what they did yesterday, and for what they do every single day."

That’s because the Muslims played such a significant role in the foundation of the U.S. (As per Obama). /S

A real leader starts off by saying, “Earlier this morning, American and NATO Forces began systematic military raids and bombing runs in A, B, C and D due to criminal and terroristic acts of ISIS as I am about to outline. These actions will escalate and will not stop until....”. Then he goes on to commemorate the dead.

Who cares how you feel when they know you are feckless?

Obama must have finished his golf game. Just reported on FOX that the Obama administration gave the go to send out a secret mission to rescue the captured journalists, but it failed.

Claiming this happen several months ago.

Krauthammer nailed it, said this a purely political announcement.

They must have polled the public, and we ain't happy.

He is acting as his religion requires him to act.

Right down to the constant taqiyya.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. That statement was taken out of context, and mistranslated, and also blown out of proportion. What he really meant was “fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you are forced to defend yourself. Arrest them whenever they break the law. Harass them with noogies, purple wurples and wedgies in the locker rooms, using every stratagem of war, parcheesie, go fish or old maid.” The Arabic text confirms it.

He is a SE Asian Muslim conceived by a guru name Muhammed Subuh. He is not of African blood. Follow the dots for Stanley Ann and her escapades to Indonesia over the years including a friend who was the personnel records keeper for Hawaii Loretta Fuddy who herself was killed in a suspicious airplane accident off the coast of Molokai. Obama tries to make out that Muslims were in on the founding of the USA.
