Sunday brought the latest terrorist attack in America, the largest mass shooting in U.S. history, with all its attendant tragedy. Words cannot adequately describe the horror that engulfed the scene of this massacre, caused by one Omar Mir Seddique Mateen.
Beyond the human cost, however, also lies the tragedy that Barack Obama, speaking even as it became clear that the murderer was a radical Islamic terrorist, is still unable or unwilling to draw the appropriate conclusions. The presidents remarks omitted any linkages between the cold-blooded murders, the terrorists ideology, and the broader international threat that motivated the Orlando killer and perhaps others yet unknown.
We will, in the coming days, doubtless hear that the terrorist was a lone wolf, that he did not belong to any known terrorist organization, that there are no wider threats. In particular, those who are blind to the terrorist threat will downplay even the incontrovertible fact that Mateen pledged loyalty to ISIS as he committed his murders.
Two critical conclusions follow immediately from Sundays tragic reality, one with immediate implications for our domestic safety, and one for conducting the broader international war against terrorism.

I listened for three words in the turkey’s presser; Islam, Muslim and radical...They weren’t there and it surprised me he actually said “terrorist.”
I hope he’s at the top of top of President Trump’s short list for SOS. The guy was on point on that interview with Heather Nuaert on FoxNews. She brought up the whole “you can’t defeat an ideology” argument (playing devil’s advocate?), and he said “You can’t defeat Nazism? You can’t defeat communism? Sure you can!”
One of my FB friends is all tore up because the gays got attacked.
I just asked her if she thought she would feel the same way if it was a Bible school full of Baptists, because you know, the muslems hate Christians just as much as they do homosexuals.......
Every time I listen to Amb. Bolton, I hope he is chosen by Trump for a cabinet post.
That depends on what his resolve and determination are, which I think are obviously not one of protecting America's citizens.
Yeah, but he could really blow: ‘When a man loves a woman’ and ‘How am I supposed to live without you.’
Bolton would step off an elevator and say, “Man, that music really rocks!”
The establishment Republican candidates who would have appointed someone like Bolton as Secretary of State are all piled in garbage dumpsters after the 2016 primary season because Americans are sick of the sh!t John Bolton brings to the table in Washington.
Stand corrected. You’re right about that.
So, we nuke Baghdad. And Mecca... I’m down with it. I have been down with that since 9/11/01. I’d throw in Kabul, too.
You can get investigated by the FBI TWO TIMES, then travel to Afghanistan for weapons training but THEN also pass an FBI BACKGROUND CHECK..?!??!?!?!?!
If the check didn’t stop THIS MADE-TO-ORDER JIHADI FROM CENTRAL CASTING, then exactly WHO will such checks stop..????
Come on..!
Checks are DE-FACTO GUN-REGISTRATION..!!!
“We will, in the coming days, doubtless hear that the terrorist was a lone wolf, that he did not belong to any known terrorist organization, that there are no wider threats.”
This will be the Obama mantra, while each future attack will increase the rant for more gun control, and Obama’s failures go unmentioned and buried by the mainstream media. And the slaughter will not only be unabated, but will likely intensify.
YES.
And this was not a terrorist attack.
It was another ACT OF WAR.
Our borders should be secured immediately by the military and the National Guard patrolling the streets, or it WILL happen again.....and again....and again.
Thanks to our pussy politicians in DC, we have lost more Americans on our own soil. Obama’s reaction is disgraceful and he will probably attend another ramadan dinner now.
I hope Trump uses Bolton and Ralph Peters as well WHEN he wins the election and takes office.
I have an eye out for omars.
Wow, you can spot the paid trolls in the comment section after the article.
Gotta hand it to the d-rats, they are all coordinated and in lock step with each other.
2. That fact that his "solution" involves a course of foreign military intervention without any border protection or immigration enforcement here at home is Exhibit A in support of my contention that John Bolton is completely full of sh!t and has no interest in protecting Americans here in the U.S.
"I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces guarding our country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense." |
That’s a valid point, in my view 0bama hates America.
