In a startling admission, Obama says the rise of ISIS was not on his intelligence radar

To be fair, ISIS remains a completely isolated group surrounded by enemies on a small strip of desert wasteland. Their greatest claim to fame is declaring anything bad that happens in the west as their doing on twitter even though no ISIS member ever met any of the monsters they claim credit for.
 
"The J.V. Team"
Indeed. How's their caliphate doing?
You and Presdident Obama agree that as long as the torture, rape, murder and destruction doesn't touch you personally, it's not a big deal.
Who's torture, rape, murder, or destruction are you referring to? ISIS or the other 5 or so groups all trying to kill, torture, rape, murder and destroy each other over there?

Anyways I hope you fail at getting our soldiers sent to die over there by the thousands so that it starts touching us "personally." :fu:
 
Gee why isn't Trumps getting briefed by Obama's intelligence team
He's going to delegate the task anyways
To his daughter?
No he needs her for.... other things...

Every time something bad happens in Obama's administration, he claims the first he knew was when he read about it in the newspapers. It's like nobody who works for him ever enters the Oval Office to give him a briefing.
 
We Fact-Checked President Obama's Latest Claim That ISIS Wasn't On His 'Intelligence Radar Screen'

Obama is basically admitting that he was totally incompetent to do his job as Commander-in-Chief, since the rise of ISIS came as a total surprise to him, despite warnings from intelligence chiefs.

How did this nincompoop get elected?

Bullshit.

. . . . it wasn't.

When he was young he went to Pakistan to help create the Mujahedin to fight the Soviets. One can only assume that was the reason, otherwise it would have been touched on in his books. One doesn't just globe trot at that age, and not have it leave an impression. Apparently so with the international man of mystery. :eusa_whistle:

How do you think he learned how to create ISIS? :badgrin:

Except those groups aren't really fighting each other....they share a goal for now; and there are ways of destroying ISIS without putting a lot of troops in harm's way. I agree that ISIS can be defeated, we've just lacked a leader with the will to do it.

Share what goal? Torturing, raping, murdering, and destroying each other?

He´s a big liar and created ISIS.

"A declassified secret US government document obtained by the conservative public interest law firm, Judicial Watch, shows that Western governments deliberately allied with al-Qaeda and other Islamist extremist groups to topple Syrian dictator Bashir al-Assad.

The document reveals that in coordination with the Gulf states and Turkey, the West intentionally sponsored violent Islamist groups to destabilize Assad, and that these “supporting powers” desired the emergence of a “Salafist Principality” in Syria to “isolate the Syrian regime.”

According to the newly declassified US document, the Pentagon foresaw the likely rise of the ‘Islamic State’ as a direct consequence of this strategy, and warned that it could destabilize Iraq. Despite anticipating that Western, Gulf state and Turkish support for the “Syrian opposition” — which included al-Qaeda in Iraq — could lead to the emergence of an ‘Islamic State’ in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the document provides no indication of any decision to reverse the policy of support to the Syrian rebels. On the contrary, the emergence of an al-Qaeda affiliated “Salafist Principality” as a result is described as a strategic opportunity to isolate Assad.

The revelations contradict the official line of Western governments on their policies in Syria, and raise disturbing questions about secret Western support for violent extremists abroad, while using the burgeoning threat of terror to justify excessive mass surveillance and crackdowns on civil liberties at home."
