Charles Martel and the Holy Roman Empire kept the Muslims out of Europe on two separate occasions. Today Europe has all but abandoned its Christian past and has allowed Muslims to come unfettered into their countries. ISIS is busy chopping the heads off of Egyptian Coptic Christians in Libya, putting that group on the doorstep of Europe. Meanwhile in Europe has been subjected to one Muslim terrorist attack after another. European Jews dont have socialists with Hitler sympathies to fear, they have Muslims to fear. A synagogue in Denmark was attacked over the weekend leaving one dead. In the Paris attacks last month, a Jewish grocery store was attacked. Apparently in Paris Jews cant walk the street without Muslims sneering at them or threatening them.
Meanwhile here in the United States President Obama wants to whine about supposed Christian atrocities over the course of 2,000 years. Hes engaging in a cheap debate tactic, trying to deflect scrutiny of Muslim terrorism by talking about the Crusades, which happened centuries before America was even discovered. Obama displays a fundamental ignorance of history, the Crusades were not fought to destroy Islam but to protect Christians in Jerusalem who were being attacked and murdered by Jihadist Muslims. In its very essence, the Crusades were a defensive war meant to protect Christians. They devolved over time from a noble cause to something less so. However that doesnt change what the intent of the Crusades was. It also doesnt change what Muslim terrorism is today.
Despite not wanting to talk about Muslim terrorism, President Obama wants a war authorization against ISIS. After all these years of ISIS threats, the President has finally gotten around to wanting to do something about it. Congress, however, should not grant him any war powers until he can present a clear strategy. Obama created the conditions for the rise of ISIS by leaving Iraq early. Hes aided and abetted ISIS in Syria by threatening to attack Assad. Hes also aided them by supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and by supporting the overthrow of Gaddafi in Libya. Now all of a sudden Obama has determined that ISIS is dangerous so he wants a war authorization. Perhaps the President could explain to Congress and the public why he called ISIS the jv team just a year ago. Has Obama suddenly determined ISIS has made varsity?
Obama doesnt have a clear plan of attack against ISIS. It appears that he has no intention of using ground troops. How in the world does he expect to defeat an organization like ISIS, which controls much of Iraq and other territories, without using ground troops? Right now the President is relying upon Jordan, which appears to be the only nation on the offensive against ISIS. Jordan has a small, relatively unsophisticated military. In fact, most of our allies in the middle east have small, relatively unsophisticated militarys. Obama has historically refused to take the lead on any international military operation. Is his plan for the United States to lead from behind while unsophisticated and small nations lead the way against ISIS? That strikes even casual observers as a recipe for wasted time and money.
ISIS has been on the march trying to create a caliphate ever since Obama abandoned Iraq. Theyve increased the amount of territory they control. Worse, theyve gained power and prestige in the Muslim world. Theyre on the doorstep of Europe, maybe not to conquer but at least to create mayhem and fear. The problem is that the more attacks they pull off in Europe the more desirable they appear to Muslims living in Europe. President Obama has no strategy for dealing with ISIS. He wants a war authorization but he has no plan and no real stated goals. It appears his only desire is to not use ground troops. Congress should refuse his request. Without a clear strategy, American lives and treasure should not be risked. Especially so when our President apparently believes the enemy is the jv team. While we have known all along ISIS was anything but the jv team, the administration needs to explain itself. Why should Congress trust Obama with war power against ISIS when he doesnt even respect their strength?
Obama strategy - he is part of the so called Muslim Brotherhood- Sayyid Qut put to death in egypt by hanging in 1966 wrote two books that the Muslim brotherhood Al Quaeda ISIL , Hamas and so forth all have put into effect.
A Book regarding Sayyid Qut’s The Power of Sovereignity: The Political and Idological Phiolsophy of Sayyid Qut (The book is available on ebay for 58.95 - 139.95) - Issues like Social Justice in Islam, political Islamism. - Sayyid Qut’s book english translation is Milestones - Ma’ alim fa-l-Tariq.
does anyone think otherwise that Obama has not read this book on Social Justice In Islam? Me thinks not, he has repackaged his beliefs to reflect something different, while pursuing the goal of social justice for Islam. A political thought not a religious identity by that Political islamism is at the forefront anti-semitism, killing of women children, Christians, intellectuals and so forth.
Same as all his strategies: ‘abandon’ those places to the brutal killers and play golf, go on entertainment shows and brag about how good things are under his policies.
Moochelle (Michel) is going to Japan on vacation. Livin it up.
‘Let them eat cake (Obamacare)’
I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh, people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future [for our children]
Odumbo’s “plan” is to play 18 holes in the AM and then fly to Kalifornia (for a so call summit, which we all know is a fund raiser), play another 18 holes. Nah, stay another day and play 36 holes (a double round), then take a few days off for taking more selfies and then fly back to Washington for another fund raising dinner party. Now tell me THAT isn’t a typical odumbo “plan”.
His strategy? That the radical Muslims win and attack and destroy Israel.
