Don’t worry about it, Barky. It’s just a bunch of JVers.

He’ll just change their name again and say he defeated ISIS.

Isn’t that nice? He armed them and now wants to take them out as part of his ‘legacy’ after they got rid of Christians and created a migrant crisis.

Obama, it’s not up to me, but I hope you rot in eternal hell.

He should demand they elect him President of ISIS, that’ll destroy ‘em. Besides, he is a qualified Mohammadan.

As a demonstration of his resolve and commitment, he will restrict himself to 36 holes on Saturday.

...wants the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) defeated by the end of his term...

And after all this time of inaction we're supposed to believe this BS?

A practical man would want them emphatically defeated during his term, not theoretically defeated before his term ends through well wishing.

This must be joke. Obama and his toadies refer to these people as ISIL or Deash or who knows what. They have the most sophisticated U.S. arms. He has no intention of defeating them.

Let’s win this to save my reputation. Horrible strategy. I see another disaster on the horizon.
