A former Marine Corps Commandant told an audience that President Obama’s strategy to defeat Islamic State militants doesn’t have a “snowball’s chance in hell” of succeeding.
Speaking at a conference in Washington, General James Conway, who served as the 34th Commandant of the Marine Crops at the end of the Bush administration and beginning of the Obama administration, said that he was skeptical that the U.S. had reliable ground forces in Iraq, the Daily Caller reported Friday.
In June, Gen. Conway blasted the White House over the controversial prisoner swap of five terrorism suspects for alleged deserter Bowe Bergdahl.

I beg to differ General, but Pres Obola knows more than any remaining high-ranking brass in the military today.
logical follow-up of a unbiased press would be, “do you believe it’s designed to fail?”
Yes. Brennan is a muslim. When he was a student he toured the middle east and wound up in Saudi Arabia and studied the language and became a muslim. He told the story top a committee investigating Benghazi.
“....the man of sin, the son of perdition.”
That says it all.
Starting with Jimmy Carter and the Shah of Iran in the '70's. The Shah's ousting was the birth of the Islamic extremist movement. Then Saddam, Ghadaffi, Mubarak, soon Assad, etc..
I’ll say it again .. could this “war” be a ruse to draw in our “special forces” .. in order to get rid of them ..??
I don’t know why I’m thinking that way, except that I know this President, and every other dictator in the world, generally fears the military that the people love.
That’s what happened in Egypt .. their military was initially shoved aside when Morsi took over .. but it was the Egyptian military who took down the Muslim Brotherhood. Is that why Obama fears our military ..??

Here is some presidential timber heretofor unconsidered.
The Islamic Movement/Caliphate was not given 'birth' by Carter. It has always been there. It is a deadly beast whom we thought dead after WWI (Ottoman Turk Empire).
Well its back and it's 'deadly wound' seems to have been healed. A millennium-old Beast that most of us forgot about until 9-11. Yet the Islamic empires held more of the globe under their talons than the Roman Empire did.
Failure is success.
Would not doubt it.
He sending 3000 ground pounders into an Ebola-stricken Africa when doctors and care professionals that are over there are coming down with the virus.
No forces on our borders, no forces (initially) to rout ISIS from it's holdings. Our military forces are at PRE-WORLD WAR I levels, our navy - down to less than 300 ships.
The military is being de-militarized and put under onerous ROI that require Obama himself to sign off on targets - while at the same time, his regime is militarizing local police forces, school districts and agencies like the weather service.
Connecting the dots of what is being engineered against us is not hard. Accepting it as the truth is what is almost impossible for most to consider.
One night on Michael Savage I ended up hearing the end of a call from a listener. This man had the ability to know the future and apparently had stories to back up his claim. This is where I probably lose most people but since it happened to me a long time ago I know it's possible. Anyway, the caller predicted that in less than 200 years there would be a mosque where the White House is now. But he refused to describe the terrible events that led up to this - even when Savage asked.
This call was a number of years ago - and when I hear of shocking event after shocking event that I previously never believed the US would put up with, I can't help but remember.
They did a smart thing planting a half black in the WH as a front man and turning 6 letters into a shield against any charges of wrong doing - “racist”. They are literally pulling off the “fundamental transformation” of the U.S.
I’ve been waiting for some of the retired military guys to speak out. Wish more of them would.
Orchestrating the overthrow of the secular dictators in the Middle East in order for the Caliphate to be established.
I've been thinking in the same direction and have been wondering why that thought hasn't gotten more national play....................
No one wants to believe it, even though the fruits of it are staring us all in the face.
Never forget, Americans that vote for democrats are dangerous and demented imbeciles.
The right should be actively working to disenfranchise these parasites in the interest of National Security.
The democrat voter is a bigger a threat to our national survival than any raghead jihadi ever will be, in some cases much worse.
Obama says, “Mission Accomplished”.
