Do you agree with Obama?

[depotoo]

GT you are welcomed to make any assumption you want just as I am under no obligation to reveal any knowledge I have. We can leave it at that.

GT, you don't have a clue here..

No, they are sitting on their hands waiting for him to say "fully engage".

Calm down, guy, didn't mean to make you so upset. When you are dodging who is responsible for the war, you aren't focused on the war, it clearly does reduce the effectiveness of the effort. It's totally important to specifically identify the enemy to defeat them. We aren't fighting all sick sadistic twits, we are fighting the Muslim ones. They are the ones killing people. And Obama has a clearly incoherent strategy to back that observation up

Are you meaning to say that the military is currently sitting on its hands waiting for obama to say "islam?"

you really dont think these things through, huh?

Yea well, Im sure youve all the classified intel of the joint chiefs in order to logically determine if you , and where you, disagree with any of the current strategies of the top brass.

if not, why are you so content with arguing about something you know for a fact that youre missing all of the classified intel on?

do you put 100pc puzzles together with only 25 pieces and argue that theyre done?

Thats nice and all, you, userhandle "depotoo" are still playing sideseat quarterback without a single bit of a ******* clue what ANY classified intel, what ANY Military advisor says at the daily briefings, etc...


And think you somehow have an informed opinion.




Thats an ego thing, not an intelligence thing.

Now, now, Obama would not say "shit" if He had a mouthful.

Maybe that's why he won't say it.

Impolite to speak with one's mouth full.......

Obama explains why he doesn't use 'radical Islam'

President Obama recently answered criticisms from Trump that he never uses the words, "radical Islam", because he thinks it is a "distraction" that will create needless agitation towards those who practice Islam, even though that is what it is.

So is he right? Should we continue the PC charade of never saying "radical Islam"?

The Orlando shooter blamed Obama's bombing campaign as an excuse on Twitter. Survivors related the same sentiment. No mention of insults or slander by politicians.

Orlando shooter said attack was revenge for U.S. bombing of Afghanistan, survivor recalls

“Everybody who was in the bathroom who survived could hear him talking to 911, saying the reason why he’s doing this is because he wanted America to stop bombing his country,” Carter said.

The shooter, 29-year-old Omar Mateen, was born in the United States, but his parents were from Afghanistan."​

Obama says,

"We are not at war with Islam. We are at war with people who have perverted Islam,"

What part of that do you disagree with?

I get that he doesn't want to use the word Islam, but I don't see why he can't refer to them as terrorists who pervert Islam.

That will not satisfy the Trumpeters who want to believe Islam itself is the enemy, but ... who cares.

No one thinks Islam is the enemy.. that s why we use the term radical Islam. That is the whole point.

it's a silly moniker------is there a RADICAL CHRISTIANITY that accounts for serial murderers and which ----BUILDS MONUMENTS TO THOSE SAINTS WHO MURDER BABIES FOR CHRIST?

When some "Christians" start bombing marathons, shooting up nightclubs, flying airliners into skyscrapers, etc I'll be more than happy and willing to call them radical Christians. In fact I think groups like Westboro are radical christians and I'm not afraid to label them as such...you shouldn't be afraid or unwilling to do the same for radical Islam

Consider,
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't piss off a billion + people

Politically correct people think before they act. No one can accuse Trump or the Trumpsters of thinking before they speak; words do have consequences. Do we need another Commander-in-Chief to call for a new Crusade, and provide the criminal element - the terrorists - talking and recruiting points?

Yes. Obama is correct and Trump is a charlatan (a person falsely claiming to have a special knowledge or skill; a fraud) and a demagogue (a political leader who seeks support by appealing to popular desires and prejudices rather than by using rational argument).

The problem with Westboro is, they don't actually follow the teachings of Christ. The radical Islamists actually follow to the letter the teachings of the Quran.

[depotoo]

I do believe decades ago more strides had been made within a larger percentage of the followers toward a more peaceful belief system. In recent years a large majority of that percentage have been forced back into its original message, whether through death of some of those more moderates or unduly influence, I do not know.

And I am not speaking of actions by outsiders, so will not go there.

Unless he is also going to extend the courtesy to Christians and Jews, then he is wrong to go out of his way for Muslims. And the left won't admit that violence is more prevalent among Muslims than other religions. Radical Islam is real and a growing problem for the world.

[Clementine]

Is it politically incorrect not to use this specific term?

Not to defend Obama, but it is amusing that so many who criticize p.c. speech insist that this phrase come out of every mouth.

Political correctness means go along with whatever the current narrative is from the powers that be. If they say something, disagreeing is treated as wrong.

So, political correctness requires people to ignore the rampant violence in inner cities, violence by illegals, and the growing problem with radical Islam. They have no trouble pointing out any kind of violence from other groups.

He is not right. No one is condemning Islam, only radical Islam. The fact that he can't/won't make that distinction is disturbing.

This is false, plenty of people are condemning Islam, and specifically the middle eastern people. Myself included... (to varying degrees).

Let's be honest, this is a hell hole, populated with murderous people who think just punishment for being gay is death.
