They can take that ‘sustainable’ and shove it up their a#@es!
You mean the brother of the president of CBS News?
Ain’t it funny how that works?
Proof that Obama is an utter moron incapalbe of learning anything from his past errors.
Al Qeda in Iraq, the father of ISIS, was destroyed down to a few hundred fighters by 2008. In 2011, Obama rejected plans to leave 10,000 US troops as a stiffener for the infant Iraqi army.
This failure by 0 to finisht he job in Iraq, resulted in the Islamic Fascist cancer being allowed to grow back unchecked.
Now because of Obama inability to put his ideological dogmas on the shelf and learn a thing, we will face a much grave problem in dealing with ISIS after he leaves office in Jan 2017.
Allah Akbar!
Ben Rhodes is a failed poet and failed politician turned speechwriter. He has as many national security credentials as Soupy Sales. Actually Soupy has more as a Pacific World War II Navy veteran.
Rhodes is the personification of Obama’s clueless policies. Obama ignores the advice of authentic national security experts and instead relies heavily on the input of political advisers like Rhodes.
The 1st Cav Div can be sustained by fuel, good, and ammo. it doesn't have to hold terrain. You tell it to kill, and it does just that. In spectacular fashion.
yea, well maybe a joint Russian American operation, but that’s too humiliating for Obama and violates his Muslim principles and betrays his Muslim friends.
So instead, he probably conferred with Edrogan and decided it would be better to take pot shots at Russian pilots.
I’ll grant Mr. Rhodes this: if your intent is to pull out all support and ground forces 6-18 months after you’ve “accomplished your mission” than I’ll agree — the strategy is untenable... the same way the Obama Administration undermined the “success” in Iraq but pulling out all residual forces.
President Bush learned (I’m sure this wasn’t a surprise) that your legacy is leaning on a thin reed when you are followed by someone like President Obama. What a disaster he has presided over.
Ben Rhodes is a proven liar.
This has to be the first presidential administration that plans for defeat first rather than plan for victory. previous presidents, starting with the Viet Nam war made the mistakes of warfare with a political command but none of them said “we can’t win so we won’t do anything.”
Obama is a disgrace. He is surrounded by AA hires and high school debate teams. There is no one at the helm.
