President Obama launched a robust defense of his strategy to defeat the Islamic State with a detailed account on Monday of territory taken from the enemy, bombs dropped and leaders killed.
“We are hitting ISIL harder than ever,†Obama said, using an acronym for the group. So far, he said, the United States has dropped nearly 9,000 bombs and last month struck more targets since the United States began attacking the Islamic State last year.
Obama has been under intense pressure from Democrats and Republicans to increase the pace and intensity of the campaign against the Islamic State following recent terrorist attacks in San Bernardino, Calif., and Paris.
His rare appearance at the Pentagon, after a meeting with his top national security staff, seemed designed specifically to counter criticism that he hasn’t devoted enough resources to destroying the group.

Those bombs are mostly wasted since ISIS has no real infrastructure to destroy...they’re just blowing holes in the sand.
Forget Syria, fix Islamists in the US and control the borders against invading borders.
“Those bombs are mostly wasted since ISIS has no real infrastructure to destroy...they’re just blowing holes in the sand.”
Putin, too?
IMO, the coordinates supplied to US firing teams are FOR blowing holes in the sand.
Our Fraud president is one of THEM, and proudly says so — in THEIR language.
Toughens “tone.”
What a freakin joke.
He’s at the Pentagon to order Birddog’s release ,he’s Hero remember
Obama sounded alternately bored, resentful, and under duress, like a hostage forced to read a statement from his captors. He has zero passion for this fight.

Better watch out. Sounds like he’s fixin to draw another line in the sand. No really.
Gotta make sure everyone has the latest lies rehearsed.
Betcha the *sshole got the mental finger from...say...99+% ...of the military there.
Who is winning the war of attrition when a $250,000.00 missile is fired from a 18 million dollar plane using $10,000.00 worth of fuel to take out a single $500.00 used pickup truck carrying (maybe!) three people you cannot identify across a desert loaded with a box.
Did anyone notice how well he pronounced all those ISIS names he mentioned in his little BS speech this afternoon?
More lies. Just window dressing. Or smoke screen.
Yeah, a tougher tone, that will work.
Hint: it isn't the jokers in the pickup, and the losers are not the wives and children of men who don't get shipped into theater..
Not likely. He has had most of the real soliders purged and the pampered princes there are his eunuchs.
