The Obama administration has no shame whatsoever about its denialist approach to radical Islamic terror. Rather than admit that its conference on “violent extremism” was, at best, window-dressing after the embarrassment of avoiding the Paris anti-terror march, it is attempting to turn political correctness into a foreign policy doctrine. The latest example is Secretary of State John Kerry’s “plan” for fighting “violent extremism,” published Thursday in the Wall Street Journal.
The “plan” consists of “building a global partnership” by “showing the world the power of peaceful communities instead of extremist violence.” That means more summits, and “building alternatives that are credible and visible to the populations where terrorists seek to thrive” by highlighting “good governance.” This is the risible “Jobs for ISIS” approach that deputy State Department spokesperson Marie Harf introduced this week, reviving a false argument that poverty causes terror.
So in response to the specific threat posed by “violent extremists”–nearly all of whom come from a specific faith and choose the same kinds of targets, over and over again–the Obama administration is proposing the equivalent of a Reform Jewish summer camp, or a Unitarian interfaith dinner. This is not a plan, but a James Taylor cameo–and one that is going to ensure that more people are killed by terrorists while we dither over whether or not Muslims might feel offended.

There are already peaceful communities. Its just that they are being attacked by crazy effed up Muslims who like to cut off heads and burn people to death.
60’s throwback peaceniks.
Let’s all join hands and sing.....All we are sayyyyyiiiiinnng
Is give peace a chance.
Hey, don’t bogart that number, dude//
Kerry is a boodist wannabe
ever since he spent Christmas in Cambodia
Namaste!
Nobody is that stupid. They are making fun of the stupidity of the American people and the media because they control them. Somebody needs to say that in public.
Ain’t that the truth.
All we are missing is a picture of hippie infidel putting a flower on the beheader’s sword and it will be deja vu all over again.
And our love will set them free.
Groovy.
Nothing worse than an aging 60’s radical. DC is full of them.
Is John Kerry a Moslem? What could be his motivation? He’s too old and beat-up to be a love child.
Money.
You guessed it...Money.
There will be lots of power, money, summits, etc. to promote this insane idea—State Dept. will get to be in thick of the planning of such nonsense :(
Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for (or pay jizyah to) those who don’t...
If you could channel the ghosts of Cortez and Montezuma, you could ask them how that worked out.
In addition, see someone else's post above, about the "swords into plowshares" thingie.
Yes, of course they are sick...
But that's another story.....
I don’t know who he is, but I had the same reaction
“The jihadists will turn in their weapons if the west just offers free healthcare and in-caliphate tuition.”
Whoa! What about unemployment insurance? What about shovel ready jobs? Lots of camels after all.
Apparently the imbecilic children of the obama regime have forgotten all about that information.
First of all, James Taylor has about as much talent as Kerry so they go together nicely.
Second, I can’t believe these people actually believe their own bull s..t.
I think a large part of America has succumbed to the effects of toxic chem trails. They voted for Obama and keep voting for democrats.
ISIS singing their version of a James Taylor song: “In my mind I’m going to chop your head off in Carolina.”
He is going to help them start wars by not impeding them at all and increasing recruitment.
I am now persuaded Obama wants Americans to become muslim recruits for ISIS.
The lesser quoted verse, paraphrasing Joel 3:10 prepare for war, beat your plowshares into swords, pruning hooks into spears. These days we can afford to keep both plowshares, swords and spears. I don’t like Obama and Kerry choosing which we use when.
