Why conduct a counterterrorism operation when they’d already declared the war on terror to be over?

If you aren’t in it to win it, why bother?

Obama’s polling lousy and so as with the delay of immigration executive action until AFTER the election, this is just a bunch of distraction.

Do the mouthing’s of these clowns have any credibility? Is it not shameful to even report them as it gives them credibility? Has not DC become Detroit?

Maybe they should just send the Ferguson SWAT team over there. If that doesn’t work they could always threaten to send secstate john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry over there for an extended lecture. I’d sure as hell capitulate if I had to be subjected to that droning imbecile.

DEMOCRATS’ LEGACY OF FAILURE

America can survive a Jimmy Carter and a Barack Obama. The real question is, can America survive its misinformed, class envious and easily distracted citizenry?

By Klaus Rohrich

CANADA FREE PRESS - September 13, 2014

Back during the 2008 presidential campaign a lot of conservatives predicted that if Obama were elected president his administration would amount to Jimmy Carter’s second term. Little did anyone at the time realize just how prescient those predictions turned out to be.

After all, it was Jimmy Carter that enabled Islamic fundamentalism to take root in Iran through his support in deposing Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. It’s very likely true that the Shah was a son-of-a-gun that established SAVAK, a secret police force that brutally suppressed any political opposition against the regime. But in point of fact, he was our son-of-a-gun who supported progress and to a great degree, western ideals.

It was under the Shah’s rule that Iranian women gained the right to an education, a development that was much lamented by connoisseurs of fine Persian rugs, because young Iranian girls went to school instead of spending their days hand tying thousands of tiny knots to form exquisite and expensive carpets.

Of course, the witless Jimmy Carter was very concerned about human rights abuses in Iran and through his various machinations created the conditions under which Ayatollah Khomeini was able to seize power from the Shah, and thus replace the hated SAVAK with the current SAVAMA, an organization whose brutality far exceeds that of SAVAK.
Khomeini rewarded the hapless Carter by invading the US Embassy in Tehran and holding American Diplomats hostage for 444 days, releasing them on the very day Ronald Reagan was sworn is as President. There’s little reason to ask why, because we all know what Reagan would have done had those hostages not been released.

Jimmy Carter’s “foreign” “policy” is directly responsible for the resurgence of fundamental Islam in the Middle East
Thus Jimmy Carter’s “foreign” “policy” is directly responsible for the resurgence of fundamental Islam in the Middle East, among numerous other disasters, both foreign and domestic.

Nearly 4 decades later another Democrat President takes up where Jimmy Carter left off, naively and narcissistically believing that he could tame the Islamist beast. He started with his Cairo apology tour, recounting how evil America had in the past mistreated Islam and under his administration this mistreatment would be rectified.

Of course, no such thing has happened. In fact, the damage this President has done far exceeds anything for which the clumsy and misguided Carter is responsible. The so-called Arab Spring was a Pollyanna fantasy that belied reality. Obama’s claim that the Muslim Brotherhood is a secular organization is akin to claiming that the Vatican isn’t Catholic. And many Americans, as well as America’s traditional allies, believe that Obama supports the Muslim Brotherhood and all it stands for.

How else could one explain the administration’s support for the ouster of Hosni Mubarak, who kept Egypt out of the grasp of Islamists for over 30 years? And when the Muslim Brotherhood finally gained control of Egypt their policies revealed a dark and evil agenda that included the destruction of Israel, imposition of extreme Sharia law and persecution of Christians and other religious minorities.
This is what the President of the United States supported? Really?!

Thankfully, the Egyptian army couldn’t stomach Egypt regressing into a medieval cesspool and quickly eliminated the Islamists, including the despicable Mohammad Morsi, whose favorite names for Jews was “pigs” and “monkeys”.
It’s a small wonder that so many Americans suspect Obama of secretly being a Muslim. If there wasn’t so much evidence of his bumbling incompetence, one could believe that he had a hidden agenda to strengthen Islamist influence around the world.
