We are less than six hours away from President Obama's prime time address where he will tell the nation what he plans to do to manage shrink destroy the terror army ISIS, so I thought it would be a good time to re-post this video (it's been making the rounds since Iraq started to collapse earlier this year) from 2007 of former President George W. Bush predicting exactly what we're seeing now.
President Bush's Prophetic Iraq Warning (July 12, 2007)
Direct danger to the United States America? Check. Losing Iraq to Al Qaeda aka ISIS now? Check. Mass Killings on a horrific scale? Check. Terrorists establishing a safe haven in Iraq (and in this case, Syria too)? Check. Increasing the probability that American troops may have to return at a later date to "confront an enemy that is even more dangerous"? Check.
What we're seeing now in Iraq is what happens when politics trumps history and advice from commanders on the ground. President Obama making the choice of politics is why we're in the position we are today with ISIS. Lets hope he presents a real, coherent plan tonight about how to move forward.
Fat chance. He'll introduce some limp-wristed baloney that won't accomplish a thing except get a lot of the wrong people killed.................
I have better things to do than to listen to that arrogant pos tonight.
As someone else posted, I have to vacuum my cat................
Tipping our hand to terrorists is outright stupid. Keep them guessing. But I guess Obama wants to help them work around our plan.

Notice how Obama never delivers a speech from the desk of the Oval Office? That would be too much of an American tradition now wouldn’t it..
Ha! Good one!
Me, too. I think I have to clean the cat’s litter box.
Maybe Obama could just recall the funds and weapons he supplied to the Syrian “Freedom fighters”, that made their way into the ISIS/ISIL effort.
That would be a good start.
“Lets hope he presents a real, coherent plan tonight about how to move forward.”
What? And take time off from his busy golfing and fundraising schedule to actually come up with a plan? No way!
How dare you reference our _resident like that. “POS”
He’s an arrogant, ignorant, misguided, and terrorist sympathizing POS. He has members of the Muslim Brotherhood for advisers.
He’s on the other side folks. (not that you and about everyone here didn’t already know it)
How much has this guy done to destabilize the world in going on six years? I submit he has done an awful lot.
Hussein Soetoro is mostly an ally of ISIS, and both are anti-American. It is clear that he wants to restore the Islamic caliphate and have Israel and America destroyed. The real questions are of a tactical nature:
-Will Soetoro leave ISIS to operate in the area on their own terms (perhaps providing aid to ISIS)?
-Will Soetoro try to have American soldiers do ISIS’s bidding for them, perhaps having a few ISIS members killed in carefully staged photo-ops to attempt to fool the public?
-Will Soetoro lead American troops into a trap for them to be slaughtered by ISIS (with fake photo-ops again being possible)?
-Will Soetoro punish the ISIS members who try to attack his other “friend” in the region, Iran?
BTTT
I bet he leaves bombing or attacking ISIS in Syria off the table. Don’t want to hurt the Muzzies to bad.
You might as well tack on an extra thirty minutes to those six hours, since the guy is almost always late.
:^)
Misguided? If he's 'misguided' it's in the same sense that a con-man is 'misguided'.
Cordially,
Anyway I have better things to do than to listen to him tonight
President Cliché is only good at one thing, giving speeches.
