Dr. Sebastian Gorka: Trump Is Right, Obama and Clinton ‘Facilitated the Growth of ISIS Into the Most Powerful Jihadi Insurgency the World Has Ever Seen’ = full title =

..

Appearing on Fox News Thursday, Breitbart News National Security Editor Dr. Sebastian Gorka, author of Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War, addressed Donald Trump’s comments that President Obama is the “founder of ISIS,” and the response from Democrats.

“I’m not his spokesman, I’m not part of his campaign, so let him talk for himself,” Gorka said of Trump. “But if he means that the Obama Administration and Hillary Clinton facilitated the growth of ISIS into the most powerful jihadi insurgency the world has ever seen, he is absolutely right.”

“Let’s just look at the facts,” he continued. “In 2008, when this Senator from Illinois became the President, and afterwards appointed Hillary as his Secretary of State, at that moment in time, ISIS didn’t exist. Al Qaeda in Iraq, the forerunner of ISIS, was one regional franchise inside Iraq. When we withdrew our troops – when we started to cook the books on intelligence, as you hear from the CENTCOM analysts – then we facilitated the rise of ISIS. With these false red lines in Syria that meant nothing, all the things were put in place by this Administration to help this former al Qaeda franchise become a trans-regional insurgency with more than 80,000 fighters today. That’s facts.”

...

Gorka came back to the falsified CENTCOM intelligence that Obama used to mislead the American people about progress in the war on ISIS, calling it “outrageous.”

Hmmm. Is Dr. Gorka suggesting some sort of act?

If your goal is to reduce liberty, terrorism can help your achieve that goal.

No, no, no. This is Bush’s fault for invading Iraq when Saddam never, ever, ever had weapons of mass destruction and killed billions of Iraqi civilians. If Bush hadn’t done this, the middle eastern shia and sunni and wahibi would be doing nothing but playing chess, solving algebra problems, and making tile art works.

Tell us something we don’t know and even then, what difference does it make.

Good!!!!

We have DISHONEST “journalists” and publications that fasten on every one of Trump’s non-establishment statements, and use them to portray Trump as unbalanced and irresponsible!

In reality, Trump is usually right, and it is Hillary who is unstable and neurologically disabled!!!!

—— with Hillary as president then Obama will “still” be in power(president).
She will be sleeping a lot and “other” people will be making decisions and be in control. Kind of like her lazy email server but in this scenario Hillary will be the “unsecured server” and the current regime will be her “hackers.”

“If your goal is to reduce liberty, terrorism can help your [sic] achieve that goal.”

Yep.

Do not listen to what people say; watch what people do.

The actions of Obama are the actions of a Marxist and a Muslim. (Since both are centralized, ruthless, totalitarian ideologies, they are quite compatible - until the time comes when they are the only two players left.)

I remember when Obama announced pulling out of Iraq with a date numerous military experts came on tv and said there will be a void made and something else would replace the terrorists . Does anyone else remember that and any links, please?

“Founder” is exaggeration. bammy and hillary allowed Islamic State to grow. I follow the news. I saw IS begin and expand by killing. I saw that bammy and hillary did absolutely nothing about them for a long time.
Supporters, but not founders.

Trump should not have backed down on this.

I never heard of ISIS before Hillary and Obama showed up.

Libya lit the fuse and Obama failed to do anything about the ISIS threat when they were organizing and marching through the Desert into Syria and then Iraq.

Do not forget that McCain, Rubio, and Graham were helping Obama and Clinton arm Syrian rebels who then became ISIS.

Don’t forget Bengazzi and all the secret arms shipments to Syria. All the “accidental” arms drops to ISIS. I would expect every single terrorist over there has an American made Glock 19 Gen 4 and American 9mm.

Don’t forget divisions worth of US armor driven up to ISIS positions and abandoned.

Don’t forget years of dropping warning leaflets on Targets hours before bomb drops.

Arab Spring was an Obama/Clinton/Soros Production.

Trump was MOCKING Obama - rightly so, he deserves it. The single biggest thing I can’t stand him for is walking away from Iraq. The waste of lives and money, along with wasting the efforts of the wounded (all forms).

He was a “passive” founder, even if he wasn’t an “active” one....still deserves the label.

Trump was absolutely right on this point. The worst you can say is that he may have phrased it sloppily.

Weapons of mass destruction.... who remembers seeing the pictures of planes, ammunition and other things that were buried in the desert in Iraq? Who remembers seeing footage of the caravan going to Jordan or Syria with some of the WMDs and Saddam’s daughters and sons-in-law?

My what short, selective memories people have.
