Obama's Plan is Working-Islamic State Advances in Libya
Washington Free Beacon ^ | February 11, 2015 | Staff

Posted on 02/11/2015 9:13:05 PM PST by lbryce

The Islamic State has expanded its presence in the failed state of Libya, and if not confronted, the terror group may be able to gain strategic territory in its quest to form an Islamic Caliphate, according to the Washington Institute’s Andrew Engel. While the United States and its allies are focused on Syria and Iraq, IS (commonly referred to as ISIL or ISIS) has its eyes beyond that fight.

The report, titled The Islamic State’s Expansion in Libya, says Libya’s ex-ambassador to the Emirates Aref Ali Nayed is worried that if Washington does not act, IS will use Libya to threaten Europe. The IS has increased its physical and media presence in the last three months. A local terrorist organization, the Islamic Youth Shura Council (IYSC), has pledged its loyalty to IS.

The headline hits home like nothing else. Obama's Plan is Working and has plenty of time left to maximize the diabolical machinations that are doing even better than imagined. It's like when Osama and his goat-copulators were chomping at the bit sitting around their cavemen TV broadcast as the Twin Towers were blackening the atmosphere that was even seen from space and then Allah gives them the bonus of their lives with the collapse of both towers. Never in their butt-crack bent over position facing Mecca did they ever dream of that happening. Obama doing his own butt-crack five times a day, seems to have direct access to Allah's cornucopia of anti-Western goodwill then Osama ever had. I mean ISIS, who would ever imagine a group like ISIS, more detestable, diabolical than the Nazis, being spawned from the miasma of Bush's yellow cake recipe.

I am posting this image for the source of this article because I now see that the headline does not contain the words "Obama's Plan is Working". But the source from where I took the article describes the situation of 'ISIS in Libya' as "Obama's Strategy is Working". Sorry about that.

Absolutely correct and just sickening. Every single thing he does is to dismantle and wreck America and western civilization and to support Islam and jihad, no matter how bloody and disgusting it has to be - the ends justify the means. It is obvious every single day. Every word that hisses out of his mouth. Every decision or lack of one supports those goals. How awful that America brought this curse on herself. What a damned shame. There may be no way back from this. So much damage done, so many gains by her enemies, foreign and domestic. A great country is falling into ruin. I’m not happy at all to see this happening in my lifetime. I wouldn’t have chosen to see this.

The idea to bring democracy and freedom to barbarians must be the most insane plan yet.

Most of the ME states require ruthless dictators to keep them from total chaos.

Quadaffi was one of the ugliest and nastiest looking men who ever lived.

But he maintained stability.

if Washington does not act, IS will use Libya to threaten Europe.

I should think perhaps Europe would do something or is that beneath them?

Zero called ISIS "JV" and IGNORED their deadly convoys departing Syria for invasion of other countries (In other words, he helped cover for them while they were on the move).

Zero cleared a path for ISIS by withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq (He gave them advance notice of our plans, including a specific departure date)

He cleared a path for ISIS by removing Ghadaffi in Libya

He and Hillary were activists for Morsi and the MB in Egypt, calling for U.S. ally Mubarak's overthrow.

Zero did NOTHING to stop the coup in Yemen, DISARMED OUR MARINES and gladly retreated from our embassy there.

He bashed Christians at the Prayer Breakfast following the 'burning alive' of the Jordanian pilot by ISIS.

He released 5 Yemeni terrorists from Guantanamo ONE WEEK after Yemeni-trained terrorists attacked Paris.

WHAT MORE PROOF DO AMERICANS NEED THAT THIS PRESIDENT IS WORKING ON BEHALF OF ISIS AND OTHER ISLAMIC EXTREMIST GROUPS TO DESTROY CHRISTIANITY AND SPREAD THE CALIPHATE IN THE MIDDLE EAST???!!!!!

Wow, Libyans are so much better off since Obama got rid of Gaddafi.

Another Obama foreign policy triumph.

In 20/20 crystal clear clarity of hindsight what Bush had proposed along with his coterie of ideo-fantasists that they were going to return the Middle East back to what the Bible tells us was where the Garden of Eden was located, you've now got to shake your head in utter disbelief at the sheer idiocy of it all. I remember Wolfowitz and Krystal (what secret rock hideaway are they cowering under, I wonder?) actually suggesting that a reborn Iraq would have no choice but to have diplomatic relations with Israel, because we as the US would demand it.

Imagine the hubris of espousing to undo thousands of years of history, and this among the most primitive and backward of humanity yet in a time span equivalent to a nano-moment of history, that, my fellow FReepers was all going to happen we were led to believe by the civilizing power of democracy. I was in awe of him of being no less than soon to be the greatest statesman ever but instead the Iraqi invasion turned out to be arguably, the greatest military, political blunder the world has ever known.

I remember how Saddam offered Bush a million dollars in cash not to invade. What? With every drop of oil we were going to take home with us and leave Iraq high and dry?

One haunting mantra we kept hearing over and over and over again was how removing Saddam diabolical presence would unleash a nuclear firestorm of internecine genocide and blood that would rear its ugly head to return to the way it had been since the 7th Century after the recent previous decades of relative peace and serenity.

Your broker should only be as infinitesimally as prescient as that.

The Arab Spring removed secular regimes, replacing them with Islamic ones.

Destabilization leading to calipatation, jeopardizing Israel and the U.S.--

--all part of the agenda of the crypto-Islamo-Communist enemy inside the gates.

I disagree with your comments on democracy and freedom. If you believe in natural rights, you would champion the cause of freedom for everyone.

You are correct, though, that benevolent dictatorship is better than nothing.

Saddam was exactly what it takes to run Iraq. I will always have doubts about that situation.

My daddy told me that there are only two routes to order in society, a police state, or individual self discipline.

Most of the ME has been under mohammed's curse for far too long to be changed by external force, they just dig in, freedom is inconceivable to them.

Well, it was worth it as long as Hillary, Obama and Soros all got rich(er) stealing Qadaffi’s fortune.

“Most of the ME states require ruthless dictators to keep them from total chaos.”

This is true, because the #1 sacrament of their religion is murder.
