With the refugee crisis overwhelming European leaders, Republican presidential hopeful and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal blamed the ongoing problem on President Obama.
After branding Donald Trump as a, “narcissist” and “an egomaniac” in prepared remarks, Thursday at the National Press Club, Jindal pivoted his attacks to the President when the topic turned to that of foreign policy.
During the question and answer section of the event, the Louisiana governor said he would not support the Untied States taking in more refugees who are fleeing war-torn Syria, Afghanistan and Libya.
“The reason I say that we shouldn’t be taking in more people today… because that’s trying to put a Band-Aid on a very, very serious problem,” he said.
As it was announced Thursday that the United State would take in at least 10,000 refugees, Jindal called the United States the most compassionate nation in the world and said he did not want to undercut the U.S.’s current refugee program.
“The reason we have this refugee crisis today is absolutely – you can draw a straight line back to this president’s failed policies,” Jindal said.
The Louisiana governor cited President Obama’s failure to enforce his red-line that he placed on Syrian President Bashar al- Assad, that was meant to force the dictator from using chemical weapons.
Jindal continued, placing the blame of the rise of ISIS on Obama, saying that he would confer with American military strategist to come up with a “realistic game plan”.
He said that he wants President Obama to take the ban off of ground troops and the three-year deadline out of the authorization of the use of military force. Continuing, Jindal said he wants to the U.S. to train and arm Kurdish forces that are fighting the terrorist group.
Ultimately Jindal his strategy is destroy ISIS ability to hold land and build their caliphate in contrast to the President’s remarks about defeating ISIS not only with a military strategy but also with, “better ideas”.
In response, Jindal slammed the president.
“If Patton and Eisenhower had said that in World War Two, the French would be speaking German today,” he said.
bingo.
Bambi is responsible for supporting radical Islam in the entire Middle East.
Of course he is and it’s by design. It’s absolutely and grossly intentional.
Jindal is correct, but not many people pay attention to anything he says.
HOORAY Jindal
The Syria crisis, the Libya crisis, the Iraq crisis, the Iran crisis, the debt crisis. General Disaster that commander-in-chief. He’s a negative 5 star.
Ditto! This is another generated crisis to change the world population and governments. Does anyone think Europe will be able to withstand the stress? My guess is they will collapse. They created the EU to spread the financial misery buy them some time and keep all their criminal little heads above water, they’re about to take on water
Probably because he has all the charisma, personality, and looks of a Monopoly board game piece.
Way to go Jindal....this made complete sense...keep talking like this, you might dig your self up out of the hole...
Obuma did cause all of the Syria mess, running guns thru Benghazi along with shillary....getting 4 Americans killed...and the day before Sept 11th, he gives Iran a nuke....
Somedays I can’t take it and wish I could wake up and things would be normal again....
This I agree with. Obama has been stirring up the Middle East by supporting the rebels in each country.
That is true! The Moslem brotherhood is entrenched in the White House too!
That charisma, or lack thereof should’nt matter, but, I admit, it does matter. This is not the greatest determining factor, of course not, but being charming or at least deeply interesting is a way to get noticed in today’s world.
