(CNN)Secretary of State John Kerry insisted Sunday that a recent spate of terrorist attacks reflects that ISIS is "on the run" in Iraq and Syria.

Kerry downplayed attacks like the shooting at an Orlando nightclub, a driver's rampage through a crowd in Nice and the Istanbul airport attack, saying they don't reflect the strength of the group in its home bases.

Those attacks "the desperate actions of an enemy that sees the noose closing around them," he told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."

“Nothing bad happened in Viet Nam after we left.”

—then Senator John Kerry.

[Dr. Ursus]

His Botox is drooping!

[napscoordinator]

Yeah running for Europe and America.

[PTBAA]

So true John, we have them on the run.

One of its members tried to hide in a gay-bar in Orlando, but his gun accidentally went off about 600 times. And another of its members apparently tried to escape by truck and accidently ran over a number of people in France. /S

[M-cubed]

Kerry is the Beau Bergdahl of the viet-nam era.....

[GoldenPup]

Kerry is beyond a delusional Ahole. What a complete disgrace to America. This Mind-numbing moron belongs behind bars together with his witch predecessor.

[SERKIT]

Kerry’s brain escaped and is on the run.

[karnage]

ISIS is on the run like the national debt is shrinking, like the US labor force is expanding, and like true Christian morality is growing in American culture and political leadership.

[blueunicorn6]

John Kerry.....still fearlessly rooting for the Brooklyn Dodgers to win the World Series.

[NonValueAdded]

I’d like some of what he is smoking.

Some noose. If the Jihadist attackers can maintain a kill ratio of one of them to a hundred civilians, we’ll all be dead long before they run out of suicide killers.

What we have here is a shark-jumping, upside-down meme.
To wit ... “We are importing them over here, so they can kill us everywhere.”

[sparklite2]

The solution is replacing their war ideology, commonly known as Islam, with a different one

That’s neocon bluster. Imposing western civilization on Islamic society has proven to be a waste of lives, both ours and theirs. Imposing religion would be more futile.

[Reno89519]

On the run?! Maybe into Europe and America. This is a growing problem, not a diminishing one.

[Minutemen]

“Ole Horse-face” would have anything on the run.

[StormEye]

I wonder if anyone in foreign countries actually
believes anything Kerry says or for that matter
actually bothers to listen to the man? It's hard to
believe any foreign government takes the guy seriously.

[minnesota_bound]

obam/Soros Black Lives Matter is on a rampage in this country.

[arthurus]

Kerry is correct in his initial statement. The direction in which ISIS is running is, however, cause for consternation.

[beethovenfan]

Keep believing that, Jean Kerre (who served in Vietnam).

[dila813]

ISIS is on the run, they are running and screaming God is Greatest as they blow themselves up across the planet.
