In yet another tragic indication of Obama administration’s ideological obstinance, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki indicated that Israel and the United States are not on the same page regarding the scope of Islamic terror.
The rift centers around Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the U.N. on Monday, during which he insisted that terrorist groups such as ISIS, Hamas, the Iranian regime, Hezbollah, al-Qaeda and Boko Haram share the same vision. “Some are radical Sunnis, some are radical Shi’ites,” he explained.
Some want to restore a pre-medieval caliphate from the 7th century. Others want to trigger the apocalyptic return of an imam from the 9th century. They operate in different lands, they target different victims and they even kill each other in their quest for supremacy. But they all share a fanatic ideology. They all seek to create ever expanding enclaves of militant Islam where there is no freedom and no tolerance, where women are treated as chattel, Christians are decimated, and minorities are subjugated, sometimes given the stark choice: convert or die. For them, anyone can be an infidel, including fellow Muslims.
Such a no-holds-barred assessment of the threat was too much for the White House. When Psaki was asked if they agreed with Netanyahu’s argument, her answer was distressingly clear. “We would not agree with that characterization, no,” she replied. Pressed on Netanyahu’s contention that ISIS and Hamas are cut from the same cloth, Psaki once again balked. She conceded that both groups are U.S.-designated terrorist organizations, but insisted that ISIS “poses a different threat to Western interests and to the United States. And that’s just a fact.”

I choose to believe Netanyahu.
The State Department is the U.S. bureaucracy’s version of the Titanic and the very definition of a ship of fools.
LOL, US State Department ,why not just ask ISIS
We already knew that, Jen!
Bibi’s not going to pledge the State Department sorority, that’s for sure.
Who has more gravitas, Bibi or Jen Psaki? I'm laughing as I type...
That is because the state dept. is stupid, ignorant and corrupt.
lol
Kind of makes a person chuckle when you hear brain addled teenage type idiots like Marie Harf and Jan Psucki criticize Netanyahu.
Don’t forget naive, gullible, lazy, cowardly, and simple minded.
We can’t even protect the Whitehouse...
We must fire the Democrats. Fire as many of them as we can beginning November elections. They have proven beyond a doubt they will not represent the Constitution of this country as they claimed when they took the oath of office, therefore they will not represent the interests of we the people.
Then we go for the RINO’s.
RE: We must fire the Democrats. Fire as many of them as we can beginning November elections.
Very hard to do that when many FReepers insist that their GOP opponents must pass the conservative purity test.
If enough people think like this and stay home, the firings will never happen.
Not on the same page....
Of course not. Øbama is an enemy islamist.
“...trigger the apocalyptic return of an imam from the 9th century...”
Oh ... well ! THERE’S where Bibi went wrong.
He used a big word, that has 5 syllables.... of course, “O” ain’t gonna agree!
He doesn’t KNOW what that means!!!!
Yes.
Yeah, 0bama wants more.
You’re so right
Pretty tough decision as to who to believe on this:
Netanyahu, who cares for the safety and liberty of the Citizens of Israel or
Obama, who cares more about the rights of terrorists than the Citizens of the US.
