Gorka: 'When Obama Took Office There Was No ISIS, Now They Have 80K Fighters'
Fox ^ | Aug. 12, 2013

Posted on 08/12/2016 10:51:44 PM PDT by george76

Gorka explained that Trump would be right to say that Obama and Clinton "facilitated" the rise of ISIS in the Middle East with their policies.

He said that ISIS now has more than 80,000 fighters and is "the most powerful jihadi insurgency the world has ever seen."

"In 2008 ... ISIS didn't exist. Al Qaeda in Iraq, the forerunner of ISIS, was one regional franchise inside Iraq. When we withdrew our troops, when we started to cook the books on intelligence, as you hear from CENTCOM analysts, then we facilitated the rise of ISIS," he said, also calling out Obama for drawing "false red lines" in Syria.

Before 9/11 happened, the GWB administration was going all out to bribe the Taliban. The object was to allow a pipeline to transit through Afghanistan to Pakistan and then India. Enron even embarked on building facilities in India, to process the oil/natural gas. GWB representatives even told the Taliban that Kabul streets could be “paved with gold.”

Then 911 happened, and GWB was stunned. He couldn’t believe that his Saudi pals would allow such a thing to happen (in spite of all the previous signals and warnings). These guys who have been running things always think they can control the Islamist fanatics, once the fanatics have served their purpose, such as chasing the Russians out of Afghanistan, or deposing Assad.

Clinton also helped to facilitate the transit of Jihadis into the former Yugoslavia, to fight the Serbs.

“Yes, I thought it was common knowledge that Obama and Hillary created Isis to take out Assad. But I guess most people have a very short memory.”

What people do not realize is there is precedent for this. The Soviet Union used the PLO as its military wing in the Middle East. A proxy if you will who they thought they could control. What they didn’t plan for is a radical Islamic component that would take on a life of its own. Al Queada became the US’s proxy for Afghanistan and the same thing happened.

ISIS, and where no one wants to address the 600 pound Mohammed statue in the room is the next iteration of this practice. The Intention of this manifestation was to take this all the way to the Russian border, putting pressure on them to pull out of Europe and derailing any thoughts of a pipeline.

Let’s take a step back. Let’s look at a couple of Clinton foundation donations. Who is the biggest perceived donor? The Saudis. Who would want to make sure that pipeline wasn’t built? Who is Obama bowing to? It is safe to say ISIS got way out of control. Like Al Queada and the PLO. Difference is, the other two organizations kept it local. ISIS went for the whole enchilada.

So what can stop ISIS? Th US, with its allies cannot stop it. We could kill a bunch of people, but that is the extent of it. You cannot destroy an ideology where 10% of over a billion followers are radicalized. But there is a way to hold it in check and that’s where Huma and Jarrett come in. This is the reason Iran is building nukes.

There are three wars taking place in the world today. The first is the Islam vs western civilization. The second is communism vs freedom, using Islam as its proxy (there is the proxy again) and finally there is Sunni vs Shiite.

Does anyone find it odd that the one man who could stop all of this is the most powerful person in the world, an Islamic communist sitting in the whitehouse?

Amazing, isn’t it? Since the first Bush presidency, it does seem to be all about “follow the pipeline”.

Clinton—>did nothing to stop OBL for 8 years.

Bill Clinton: “Now you just hold your britches you young whippersnapper. I did too do things to stop OBL. I pleaded with the Saudis to take’im. Remember that? Right. And I bombed an aspirin factory.”

[Clinton sighs.]

“I worked as hard as I could to ... remember Haitii? Oh I just loved watching little girls there running around. Sooo young! Better than Pedaphile Island. And boy did I skim off those charities after that meteor hit the island. Or was it a tornado? [Heheheh!] Who cares? Just people that should be pouring us coffee anyway.”

It could be you don’t know what you mean when you use the term “has nuts,” or “success.”

The confusion here comes from society’s attempt to replace the classical with the postmodern. But the postmodern is dishonest and self-refuting. It tries to destroy language through the very use of it.

To “have nuts” simply means to be a sniveling coward. It’s the opposite of having courage. Sniveling cowardice is what the 911 hijackers had. Perpetrating evil deeds under cover of darkness. It requires a hidden process of scheming which cannot be exposed to public view. Acts of courage do not.

Postmodernism sinks in its effort to destroy language, while failing to notice language is the vessel on which it embarked in the first place.

And so the postmodernist politician wants to destroy classical values while pretending to endorse them. Thus he demolishes that which he values above all else—his own character—in his attempt to elevate it.
