Obama: ISIS Is Not Getting ‘Stronger,’ We Have ‘Contained’ Them
Breitbart ^ | 11/13/2015 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 11/13/2015 4:57:14 PM PST by GilGil

Friday on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” President Barack Obama seemingly downplayed the threat of ISIS in an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that aired on Friday’s broadcast of “Good Morning America.”

Stephanopoulos asked Obama if ISIS was gaining in strength, to which Obama denied they were.

“I don’t think they’re gaining strength,” Obama responded. “What is true is that from the start, our goal has been first to contain and we have contained them. They have not gained ground in Iraq, and in Syria they’ll come in, they’ll leave, but you don’t see this systemic march by ISIL across the terrain.”

That lie will no longer fly....unless by “containing them” you mean you’ve pulled your punches, and withheld bombing, and placed them in a virtual coccoon....that is, until Putin came along, blew your cover, and started bombing the crap out of them.

See, in a way Obama does tell the truth! Just take anything he says and do a 180.

By “contained”, he actually means “sleeper cells have spread to every major city”.

It is painfully obvious that Obama is once again trying to deflect blame from the true perpetrators. Does the truth not mean anything anymore? When will people turn on him?

“The good news is we have contained Isis. The bad news is that they are contained in Paris, Berlin, Madrid and London.”

Obummer also said there is no gun violence in other civilized countries. So now we have to assume France is not civilized?
