More Americans have died due to Islamic terrorism and more terror plots have taken place here than in Europe over the last decade. Clearly our integration is working really well. If it works any better, the bombings and killings will really pick up. The exact quote has Obama calling the marathon bombing a “tragedy” rather than a massacre.
“It’s important for Europe not to simply respond with a hammer and law enforcement and military approaches to these problems,” Obama said.
Every good liberal knows you can’t stop a bad guy with a gun...

2 Chronicles 25:14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them. 15 Wherefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thine hand? 16 And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel ? forbear ; why shouldest thou be smitten ? Then the prophet forbare , and said , I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel. 17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice , and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying , Come , let us see one another in the face. 18 And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying , The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying , Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle. 19 Thou sayest , Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast : abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall , even thou, and Judah with thee? 20 But Amaziah would not hear ; for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom.
Obama is right, we should not use a hammer. We should use anything we need to destroy the vermin.
Unintended reference?
Or veiled message to Jihadists who may remember that it was Martel-The Hammer-that threw the Caliphate out of Europe.
We know whose side he has sympathy for.
Interesting point. It would be just like Obama do passively rebel through vocabulary. His most recent example is saying ISIL instead of ISIS like everybody else. I think ISIL makes a reference to the downfall of Israel.
Says the Nobel Prize Drone King.
Well, frankly, I’m not too worried Europe will use any of those things. More “dialog” — that, I expect.
No, not a hammer. Something much larger.
Correct!
JDAM’s work better.
Exactly...he probably hates Charles Martell as much as he hate Winston Churchill
Vlad the Impaler? Used the Muslims psychological warfare (terror) against them!
If the next US president is a conservative, his first order of business should be to close the door to the vast majority of Islamic immigration.
Next is to create a CIA program designed to locate and exterminate all radical agitators in the western world, other than the US. In the US, a different agency would do the same thing, if sometimes less lethally.
This should be entirely covert, not involving the governments of those western nations. And hopefully, for the actions to both have “plausible deniability”, and to “make it look like an accident”.
Hopefully, by the time he leaves office, the program would be entirely divorced from the government and self sustaining. The concept being to perpetually cull the most radical leaders from Islam. Something like natural selection to make them a far less violent philosophy.
The program could work for radical communists as well.
Yes, the L in ISIL means the inclusion of the area known as Levant which is the same area that makes up Israel.
Obama is so sneaky.
France should use a couple of thousand Charles Martels (AKA The Hammer).
Unfortunately, it may be conservative Christians that the progressives go after
Dream big!
Right! It is not what I don’t know about Obama that scares me. It is what I DO know and is put out for everyone to see!
These guys want to kill you and they don't seem to mind dying to do it. Nothing will placate them. What do you have left except capitulation or a hammer?
Charles “The Hammer” Martel made it work.
