Politically, and I guess practically stupid. So why?

Some of you just don't get it, do you??

Obama was put in place by the left and the muslims. His job is to destroy America, and a fine job he's doing of it too.

In war language, this is called a "decapitation strike". The US tried that at least twice against Saddam (that other Hussein), and bragged of having succeeded. Not that simple.

But the arabs/muslims/lefties, now they succeeded just fine.

>>Obama was put in place by the left and the muslims.

Specifically, by the royal families of Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, in coordination with the Chinese ruling class.

LOL - Don’t you mean “you people”??

Seriously, it hurts the Administration and emboldens its political adversaries.

This has the appearance of incompetence, and potential malice - not a political or tyrannical benefit in any form.
