No one wants to cause WW III. Our current government has no strategy and chooses to politicize domestically instead of to lead the world. Our leader doesn’t understand the nature of the threats our nation faces, full of empty words, vitriol and concern for optics and politics.
‘afraid of widows and three-year-old orphans …a terrible and sickening setback.’
I really can’t stomach listening to anything our President says anymore because it reminds me yet again that he is no leader, rather a good-talking narcissist, a craven politician who is delusional, bereft of solutions and with no one else left to blame. He calls Americans xenophobes as he roils about refugee policy when it was he who made them so; red lines drawn, crossed and ignored. As the one nation who has already accepted more immigrants that the rest of the world combined, let’s bring them all here and then we can referee? I’m not afraid of orphans and widows, rather the foreign policy which has created them or may create more. I don’t lock the door to my home because I hate the people outside; I lock it because I LOVE the people inside.
ISIL/ISIS/DAESH/Islamic-extremists/terrorists/whack-jobs or whatever (not a state actor) you wish; publicly said that they will sneak folks in this way. The Prime Minister of France said that terrorists there got in with Syrian refugees. Why don’t we listen to the terrorists, accept what they say they will do and act accordingly? Isn’t a little caution worthy of consideration?
The President once said that we aren’t the world’s policemen but we could save Syrian children from being gassed. And then he didn’t save them from being gassed, they were gassed and he did nothing. Didn’t HE care about 3 year-old orphans and widow’s then?! If we aren’t the world’s cop then how or why are we its refugee agency with full and free benefits for all? Didn’t the Tsarnaev’s all get assistance? Maybe we should have dropped fewer pamphlets on Syria and instead helped someone stick Assad with an umbrella tip? Maybe Vlad Putin has some more Cesium or something?
Maybe we shouldn’t still be trying to let terrorists out of GITMO and trying to shut it down? Perhaps we should have left some troops in Iraq? Hmmm? Maybe we should be supporting Egypt and Israel instead of alienating them? Maybe we should actually read the deals we make with Iran? Maybe we should be engaging with the French instead of letting them get even cozier with Putin? Maybe we could participate with Putin since, in this matter, our national interests merge…or do they? Maybe we could lead from in-front instead of Russia and Putin? Maybe we should engage with our long-term allies rather than to appear weak to the whole world, further hastening the demise of our alliances?
We hear about how ‘weak’ the Presidency really is, though it comes with an ink pen and drones. We heard that ISIS, which now controls ‘less territory,’ was the JV team, easily contained and not a problem. We heard the crowing of ‘GM is alive and bin Laden is dead and the terrorists are on the run.’ The President was going to use foreign policy as a ‘cudgel’ against Mitt Romney only to have it blow up in his face… and rather than to lead, he lied…over and over. He apparently didn’t learn anything from Libya.
What I hear is talk, talk, talk. This guy gets a thrill going up his leg while listening to his own effluvial utterance. He wishes that he himself could just ‘make it so,’ as though he is shocked that we cretins don’t know he is the just smartest and most correct. (Ask General Petraeus) Talk about out of touch with reality! Feckless is a compliment at this point! Perhaps a Cowboy would be better…
And WTF was John Kerry saying about a rationale for the Charlie Hebdo attacks which …nearly anyone would agree was a justification… as though it were in any way justifiable. He really needs to shut his yap. Secretary of WHAT? I always knew that he was a pompous buffoon yet he keeps proving it over and over… haughty in French too!
Do the President, Hillary, Kerry and others believe that Republicans are their real enemies? Other Americans are truly their Great Satan?
Do these people truly believe that it is OUR fault that the terrorists exist? Do they really believe that anything we do to make nice with the terrorists will work? Do they really have passion that we are actually safer if we weaken ourselves or don’t respond to attack with anything but hot air? Do they really envision that their yapping will amount to any real solution? Don’t they understand the difference between tactics and a cogent strategy?
While we don’t need to overreact, don’t these people understand that there are truly bad people out there who want to kill us for their own reasons? And, even more …just because we breathe? If they do then don’t be afraid to say so and call the terrorists by their names…
After 9/11 how could we forget the lesson!?
Or is this just POPPING OFF?
