"The Islamic State is a JV team, ISIS is not gaining strength, we have them contained, and we are making progress to defeat and destroy them, hey, look what the tooth fairy left under my pillow."
It is almost like an Onion moment to listen to Obama speak about the Islamic State. The only difference is that the Onion knows what they write is satire and parody, but Obama doesn't have a clue about what he says.
In a knee-slapping interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABC's Good Morning America, Obama spoke after a drone strike killed "Jihadi John," the Muslim extremist seen on YouTube beheading foreign captives.
When asked if ISIS was growing in strength Obama replied with a straight face: "I don't think they're gaining strength. 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."
Stephanopoulos sat quietly like a good puppet as Obama continued: "What we have not yet been able to do is to completely decapitate their command and control structures. We've made some progress in trying to reduce the flow of foreign fighters and part of our goal has to be to recruit more effective Sunni partners in Iraq to really go on offense rather than simply engage in defense."
ISIL, aka ISIS, doesn't march across the terrain--they use our vehicles left behind by our fleeing partners.
Let's be real--ISIS has been gaining in strength in spite of our anemic bombing campaign and have gone on to take territory in northern Syria and Ramadi in Iraq. It appears that Mr. Obama is back to smoking weed.
The latest ISIS attack in Paris that killed 129 and injured over 350 others came right after Obama spoke with Stephanopoulos. It shows just how informed he is about the state of the Islamic State and that they are "contained."
It's no wonder why the rest of the world thinks he's weak and is an empty suit.
When Obama bragged that the United States and our allies were going to "degrade and ultimately destroy" the folks who seized large territories in Iraq and Syria, some people may have bought his line of bull.
Since bragging however, he's changed his carefully crafted rhetoric and dropped the "defeat" and "destroy" from his language and inserted "contain" instead. Perhaps he'd like to concede that ISIS went from "JV" to "All Islamic."
ISIS is contained alright--they're contained in at least 8 countries from Afghanistan to Algeria. And the only strength they may have lost is from being tired after downing a Russian passenger jet, pulling off 6 terrorist suicide attacks in France, and committing carnage in Beirut from suicide attacks.
Obama is an insult or a joke--I'm still trying to figure out which one or both.
