Obama fiddles while the US and the world burns. He is “concerned” and “monitoring.”
Our wondrous president today declared that ISIS IS CONTAINED. From Breitbart.com:
Obama: ISIS Is Not Getting ‘Stronger,’ We Have ‘Contained’ Them
by Jeff Poor
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.”
“The global war on terror is over.”
~ Barack Hussein Obama, 23 May, 2013
OUR PRESIDENT IS AN INCREDIBLE DOLT.
Isn’t timing wonderful? Just as our CIC (Coward In Chief) makes this statement, all hell explodes in Paris at the hands of ISIS and Islam. Six or seven attacks occurred in Paris, France, on Friday.
And yes, our sterling, stalwart and courageous president refuses to name Evil. As Obama said, these are nothing more than garden-variety “extremists.”
Islamic evil. Let me please repeat that: ISLAMIC EVIL.
Pipes: “Those who make all Islam their enemy not only succumb to a simplistic and essentialist illusion but they lack any mechanism to defeat it. We who focus on Islamism see World War II and the Cold War as models for subduing the third totalitarianism. We understand that radical Islam is the problem and moderate Islam is the solution. We work with anti-Islamist Muslims to vanquish a common scourge
No group has yet made claim to the attacks, but they will. Only a fool or our president would leave those attacks unattributed. Fool and Obama, one and the same. Parisians were throwing bedsheets out of their windows in order to cover the dead in the streets.
We are seeing the beginnings of an entire paradigm shift, a cultural change, in Europe, that will result in what was once known as European culture kicked to the curb.
A Jihadi Urban Army is emerging in France and in Europe. ISIS elements are already present in the US, having simply gotten their ankles most.
Is this the Religion of Peace™ versus the Religion of Evil™ ?
What video will it be this time, Mr Obama, responsible for these attacks? Were they disaffected Muslim workers ill-paid in various Paris businesses? Were they “poor,” “disenfranchised,” struggling to put food in the mouths of their children?
Or were they simply barbaric thugs destined to kill as many Westerners as possible?
A “hostage situation”? It was never a hostage situation. It was a situation destined for death.
More than 140 dead in series of terror attacks: 100 are killed after hostages are taken at theatre. Kalashnikov-wielding gunman opens fire in restaurant. Two SUICIDE bombs detonate near the Stade de France. Gunfire at shopping centre
Parisians were throwing sheets out of their windows so that the dead could be covered.
There were six attack sites. Suicide bombers blew themselves up. Gunmen took hostages in a venue. Gunmen blew themselves up and perhaps first responders.
Survivors climbed out of the concert hall on ladders. 100 people dead there alone. A mandatory curfew in effect for the first time since WWII.
The attackers shouted “Allahu Akhbar.”
Attackers detonated vests as police moved in.
200 wounded, 80 seriously in Paris.
Ah Islam, the religion of tolerance and peace.
“We understand that radical Islam is the problem and moderate Islam is the solution -”
I don’t believe there is such a thing as a ‘moderate’ moslem.
How can there be when their entire ‘religion’ is built on violence, conquest, domination and glorifies suicide in the name of allah? Where are all these so called moderate moslems? Where are the moderate imams? Are they out protesting the slaughter done in the name of their ‘peaceful’ religion? Are they actively trying to eliminate the terror elements of their ‘religion’?
Or are they doing nothing because they themselves fear those same elements? Is their allegiance to the koran such that they are incapable of speaking out?
Or is it that because of their beliefs they see nothing to speak out against?
And yet the West will persist in its folly of this delusional thinking that moderate moslems are a solution. And therein lies its destruction.
I wrote about “moderate Muslims” here:

I too believe there are no real “moderate Muslims.” For if they were, Imams would say they were not true Muslims.

It’s time to take off the rose colored glasses… This IS a war. Period.
And of all people, Socialist Francois Hollande actually SAID it was war. A nitwit like Hollande has more common sense that Obaka.
BZ
Agreed.
We know the Koran contradicts itself. The contradictions happen in later writings, which supersede the earlier. The book becomes more violent in later pages.
“Moderate Muslims” are either in denial, or they are ignorant.
We’re at war.
I fear these “Moderates” are about to forced into a decision.
I would say you are correct. The line is being drawn now. You’re either WITH the US or you are AGAINST the US.
BZ
Death count is said to be at 128.
But remember ISIS claimed to be responsible, and ISIS isn’t what they claim they are:

They really aren’t:

And the consequences of thoses attacks will be closing borders and reducing civil liberies.
And that’s the balance we have to make. We canNOT lose our liberties to these fucktards.

You observe that a cultural change is beginning in Europe. I hope you are wrong but fear you are right.
There is an isolated village in Bosnia which is believed to be used as an ISIS training camp, less than 500 km from my domicile. Reassuring, no? Abandoned cell phones at the Serbian/Hungarian border have pictures on them of ISIS atrocities. Where does one suppose the owners of those phones are today? But we must keep letting in those poor ‘refugees’. Ad infinitum and without any thought to our own national security or risk being labelled intolerant or being like Nazis, this from the Austrian Chancellor not too long ago . Or so we are told.
However perhaps all will not be lost as long as there exists someone such as Prime Minister Viktor Orbán who is willing to act in the interests of his country and not be intimidated. Someone who can see the clear dangers and who is not afraid to do something about them. Ironic that the Visegrád 4 seem to be the only countries who are truly interested in working together to try and once again protect the external borders of Europe from invasion.
For anyone interested here is a link to PM Orbán’s website. http://www.miniszterelnok.hu/in_english_news
Of interest is his interview with Swiss weekly Weltwoche and separately his comments regarding the V4 countries sending personnel to Greece.
And then I look at obama and I am embarassed for my country.
Sorry this is so long, BZ. I’ll be quiet now.
No apologies necessary. I always welcome your cogent thoughts madame.
