I asked a liberal acquaintance that what was it that Obama who is supposed to get the world to like us, who is supposed to be such a great uniter, could only get a handful of countries to support him when President Bush was able to assemble a coalition of 40 nations.

crickets...

Riddle me this. Even though the U.S. has an incompetent leader, why aren’t other nations concerned about the slaughter of Chiristians? Do they think they are immune to ISIS or any other deranged group? I mean ISIS is crucifying Christians as an example to what will happen if they don’t convert. Similar to what the Romans did. At some point other countries have to wake up to the fact that terrorists can not be pacified by talking to them. They have to be destroyed.

Just my dos centavos.

Any “coalition” is a delusion of an insane government run by Clown Prince nobama. Aren’t there any patriots in government to control this anti-American traitor?

And so it was that Barack Obama observed the anniversary of 9/11 by visiting something called Ka-BOOM!, a non-profit that helps build playgrounds for children. Neither the President nor the First Lady nor anyone else in the 40-car motorcade appears to have thought it odd that, on the day the Twin Towers went Ka-BOOM!, America's Commander-in-Chief should be helping put children's toys in backpacks marked Ka-BOOM!

There is a disinclination to believe his promises, said Mustafa Alani of the Gulf Research Center in Dubai.

"We have reached a low point of trust in this administration," he said. "We think in a time of crisis Mr. Obama will walk away from everyone if it means saving his own skin."

While the other putative members of the coalition didn't speak so bluntly, this is what they were all thinking.

I dare say that nothing like this has ever been said about any prior U.S. President.

Let's face it. No responsible world leader is going to commit their young men and women to combat under Zero's banner. Nor should they.

Indeed, should we...???

And so a day in which Islamic imperialists killed thousands of Americans by flying planes into skyscrapers has somehow devolved into a day for raising awareness of the need for better play facilities for children. Did he also visit Habitat for Humanity and help hang a new window treatment? Did he plant a tree?
Classic Stein.

Ahhhhhhhh, the optics! the optics!!!

The only way to destroy them is a massive Bush style invasion to hold ground.

We already spent a trillion dollars trying that.

Obama is directly responsible for the rise of ISSI since he failed to negotiate a status of forces agreement.

Obama inept leadership is the cause of WWII that now begins.

[MasterGunner01]

What ally in their right mind would want to have Obama and his band of incompetents handling strategy to combat Islamic State (and various other Muslim jihadists)? Obama cannot even articulate a policy, let alone follow a coherent one. Barry inspires no allies, but our enemies love him.

For the modern progressive, the entire planet is fringe-of-the-map. Real politics is about free contraceptives for thirtysomething college students, and transgender bathrooms for grade-schoolers. "Foreign policy" is something old bitter white men do.

Nixon’s apocalyptic vision of America becoming a “pitiful, helpless giant” has come to fruition under 0bama.

“Turkey refuses to allow a US-led coalition to attack jihadists in neighbouring Iraq and Syria from its air bases, nor will it take part in combat operations against militants, a government official told AFP Thursday.”.

Pretty much tells you what side they are on, doesn’t it?
