US removes Iran and Hezbollah from list of terror threats
Mid East Monitor ^ | 3/18/15

An annual security report submitted recently to the US Senate by James Clapper, director of National Intelligence, removed both Iran and Hezbollah from the list of terrorism threats to the United States for the first time in years.

The unclassified version of the "Worldwide Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Communities" dated 26 February, noted Iran's efforts to fight "Sunni extremists", including elements affiliated with the Islamic State group who were perceived to constitute the "preeminent terrorist threat to American interests worldwide".

As bad as Clinton and Carter were as presidents I have come to think that they were just incompetent.

But Obama is way past incompetence. He is truly evil and working for our ultimate demise.

Note my tagline (proudly lifted a while back from a post by another Freeper).

Concessions for the road to peace no doubt. I wish I could add the sarcasm tag, but I believe it to be the reality. What other reason could there be to explain why this has been done.

Just once I’d like to know just WHO is calling the shots in DC... That old **** director doesn’t know if he’s afoot or horseback but I don’t think he’d do this without threats from the WH..... Then the question is, how many fingers are in the pie in the WH?

Iran has to put off the negotiations because they won’t stop laughing until some time in the next year.

Did I miss something? I thought congress makes these decisions.

LET'S GO GOP, pass legislation putting them back on the list and challenge Obama to veto it. I think we could get enough cross over dems to override the veto and make Obama choke on it.

Get in the damn game GOP, Obama just fumbled the ball on his own one yard line PICK IT UP or get out of the way!

I’m honestly surprised that we haven’t had a real awful 9/11 style attack during his stench in office.
Though he did try to redefine the Boston Marathon attack as anything but terrorism.

Congress ceded their power.
They now just collect a paycheck, let low level staffers draft papers, and go to parties.

We have ball-less and brainless douchebags running our country. It's ok for left-wing blowhards to live in their world of make believe but people will die when our government does it. America has no real men left in any position of power.

Obama is the worst US President in history...

***********
He is not a president, a leader nor a statesman. He is nothing but a agitator.

Ignore the fact that a few weeks ago the Iranian Navy destroyed a mock up of a US carrier...what could that mean Barry?

So what? Obama would do the same thing if he could.
