Rep. Blackburn: Obama Lives in ISIS 'Fantasyland'

The Obama administration is living in "fantasyland" if it thinks Americans are buying its no-ground-troops strategy on fighting the Islamic State (ISIS), Rep. Marsha Blackburn says.

Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican, adds that Secretary of State John Kerry's flip-flopping on whether the U.S. is "at war" with ISIS mirrors his boss's confusing take on the problem.

"Bear in mind, this is pretty much the way they have operated since they went into office," Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican, said Monday on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.

"Words matter, actions matter . . . You can't just go say [we've] changed all the rules and well, now being at war is going to mean something different.

"No, it does not, and they are absolutely living in fantasyland if they think the American people are buying this."

450 troops to fight some 30k+ ISIS....but send 3000 to fight a virus???

This makes zero sense unless you’re trying to distract the peoples attention away from aiding a Muslim caliphate...you’d want everyone chasing after Ebola as you bombed Assad.

If even one of our troops get this virus, Obama needs to be sent to Liberia.

"It's still a CIA creation"

Created by Mossad and helped along by CIA.

The story running around the fringe of the internet is that al Baghdadi is the Mossad agent Elliot Shimon.

Baghdadi/Shimon was put into his mission in 2004 when he was put into Camp Bucca, which replaced Abu Ghraib. He was supposedly arrested by the US military/CIA for some crime but that was just part of his cover. He was then released.

There is lots of speculation about his interim activities but his next known appearance was when he gave the speech at the mosque, not long ago.

There is a lot of info on this, which you can find with a google or youtube search, but it is mostly fringe stuff. I've found only one credible source on the subject.

Is Al Baghdadi who he claims to be?
