President faced new criticism after attacks in Brussels

BUENOS AIRES—President Barack Obama defended his strategy against the Islamic State from new criticism after this week’s deadly attacks in Brussels, while urging Americans and others not to succumb to fears of terrorism at home.

Mr. Obama said critics who argue he should have cut short his trip to Argentina and Cuba, where he attended a baseball game in Havana just hours after the attacks, are misguided.

“Even as we are systematic and ruthless and focused in going after them, disrupting their networks, getting their leaders, rolling up their operations, it is very important for us to not respond with fear,” Mr. Obama said at a news conference here with Argentinian President Mauricio Macri.

obama’s approach is to leave the borders open, without enforcement, and forestall all attempts to stem, or even monitor, illegal entries.

Then lay out liberal import quotas for moslems and do everything possible to limit private access to firearms.

No doubt, if he could do so, obama would ‘fight’ islamic terror by requiring all Americans to go out unarmed, wearing a big, neon sign which says, “Easy Prey for Terrorist Attack!!!”

His strategy is strangely identical to that of the middle east towelheads.

we can’t even get past the false propaganda headline

he does NOT have an approach to countering IslamoNazi terrorist murder gangs

he actively promotes them, and has done so at least as long as he’s Occupied our White House (like, his first public speech in Office was actually in Cairo, Egypt at the Islamic University ... and he got the IslamoNazi terrorist murder gangsters Sprung from gaol there...so they could overthrow the Egyptian government and take over the country)

and O has protected and funded the IslamoNazi terrorist gangster state thugs in Iran for his entire 7+ years in office, too, so that they can complete their buildup of nuclear bombs and ICBM’s to “destroy their Great Satan” (America)

No, WSJ. O has NO strategy to counter Islamic terror. He IS the front man, he is a leader of Islamic terror

There is no U.S. approach to countering terrorism. The Obama administration is encouraging terrorism.

Isis is now primarily concentrating on Europe where it has many many advantages.

Once Europe is Allahope, the concentration can be on the Occident

there might be an incident or two, but for now we are relatively safe

Boston, Fort Hood, the Ca attack, Panty bomber...and a few more.

We've had quite a few attacks under Obama.

And every one of them should have been stopped before they happened.

The libtard’s elected an affirmative action boy toy to push for abortion, gay marriage and gun bans. Oh, and phony climate change politics.

No foreign policy plan was expected and when none of the other libtard issues are on the immediate horizon the toy plays golf, rides his girl bike, goes to commie baseball games and takes expensive vacations at the taxpayers’ expense.
