Speaking during a press conference from Eastern Europe early Wednesday morning, President Obama said justice will be served for the beheading of American journalist Steven Sotloff yesterday and that ISIS must be "destroyed." However, shortly after those remarks, Obama said he is working with coalition forces to turn ISIS into a "manageable problem."
"We know that if we are joined by the international community, we can continue to shrink ISIL's sphere of influence, its effectiveness, its financing, its military capabilities to the point where it is a manageable problem," Obama said. "Our objective is clear, and that is to degrade and destroy ISIL so it is no longer a threat not just to Iraq but also the region and to the United States."
Obama: ISIS a 'Manageable Problem,' If 'International Community' Comes Together
Obama's objective or strategy couldn't be more opaque (or non-existent as the White House admitted last week). Is the goal to "destroy" ISIS? Or to "manage" the terror army? If only the international community approves of course. One thing is clear, President Obama has no interest in the United States taking the lead on ISIS or destroying them on our own.

So islamic state is kinda like herpes.
The press will cover for him to.
Maybe America will wake up after we’ve been hit again.
I’m planning on laying low on the morning of 9-11
Two terror plots stopped in Sweden
The Swedish Security Service (Säpo) says it has stopped two terror attacks being planned by violent Islamist extremists living inside the country.
Few details of the plots have been revealed, but the chief operating officer of the Security Service confirmed to the Aftonbladet newspaper that its officials had been investigating the potential crimes.
Anders Kassman said that the attacks were discovered following research and intelligence gathering by the security agency. Both foiled plans were intended to be carried out inside Sweden.
He did not reveal if the suspects were intending to carry out suicide bombings.
"We are talking about terrorist acts. That alone makes it serious," he told the magazine.
Sweden was rocked by a suicide attack in 2010, when a man blew himself up on a popular shopping street in central Stockholm. Only the bomber died.
Foreign Minister Carl Bildt said at the time that the "attempted terrorist attack" could have been "truly catastrophic".
That would be like FDR announcing he would shrink the Nazis into a “manageable problem.”
Like Joe Biden told him during the 2008 rat debates : The presidency is not a subject that can be learned
So when ISIS is manageable, they only cut off half of your head.
Obama will seek justice
Sure, just like Bengahzi, which is now years removed from the actual event.
By combating them with sunshine and roses. We wouldn’t want to hurt any of those nice, peace-loving beheaders.
The JV team is having its way with Obama so far.
Sure is a different tone than he spoke on Labor Day in WI.
He got almost crazed, today he was so monotone.
He kept touching and pinching his nose on Monday, was he on something?
His eyes look evil, could not watch about the 30 minute mark.

“Obama said. “Our objective is clear, and that is to degrade and destroy ISIL so it is no longer a threat not just to Iraq but also the region and to the United States.”
In this statement he is admitting “a threat...to the United States.” Yet, he is not discussing any planning nor any action....
I am reprinting a point I made in mid June....
*************************
If you WANTED another terrorist attack on US soil, what would you do?
1. Publicly rebuke Isreal, sending a clear message to the islamofascists…..Done already by John Kerry!
2. Take passive approach with terrorist regimes…..Done consistently by this admin with Libya, Syria, etc.
3. Remove US military might from terrorist strong-holds….Done with removal of troops from Iraq, now we see it being re-taken by terrorists.
4. Allow Iran to enrich uranium which can be weaponized……done earlier this year.
5. Open the borders to allow anyone to enter….happening now.
6. Release known high level terrorist scumbags back to their home region, allowing them to re-enter the planning to attack the US….Check.
7. Demoralize our fighting men and women…..It has been happening consistently with this administration but has been accelerating with the VA treatment, the Sgt Tamareesi situation and now with the celebrating of the defector.
Now, why would anyone WANT a terrorist attack on US soil?
Imagine if it were to occur within the next 2 years....
Well, then you would have a reason for “delaying an election as you work hard to protect the citizens.” It isn’t as if this administration has a respect for the rule of law or anything, so why would they feel obligated to follow election laws….
After all, imagine an event worse than 9-11 and then ask yourself if that could cause the populace to “cry for action.”
What does "manage" look like?
Does it mean only 300-500 bloodthirsty killers (minimum) with US passports travel freely throughout this country to carry on their jihad - and we let the local cops eventually find them and prosecute them after they commit their multiple murders? Does that mean we continue to import more Muslim killers from their third world hell-holes to join the jihad?
What does "manage" mean?
yep..
I guess in his case, manage means: allow to continue...
amazing.. simply amazing..
manage...wow...
In the Mary Martin version of Peter Pan, the audience had to help Tinkerbell recover by thinking happy thoughts and clapping their hands. I think President Tinkerbell has something similar in mind here.

Does the "international community" give a rat's ass about what you think?

Hussein, you are way out of your league.

Yep.
Obama is going to organize the Islamic State into submission.
