Obama Is Reticent To Smoke al-Qaida Terrorists
Obama Is Reticent To Smoke al-Qaida Terrorists
Joseph Farah, Founder, Editor and CEO, WND — No one seems to know what to do as al-Qaida masses an irregular Black Flag army and heads toward Baghdad for a final showdown.What am I missing here?
When the bad guys come out of the shadows, out of their holes, out of their hiding places, and into the light, you eradicate them with air power.
What’s happening in Iraq right now is not really a crisis. It’s an opportunity!
It’s the best opportunity we’ve had to set back al-Qaida in years.
Of course, Obama is conflicted.
Look at his history.
When millions of Egyptians rallied in the streets to overthrow Muslim Brotherhood warlord Muhammad Morsi as president, Obama suspended aid he had earmarked for the tyrant he helped bring to power.
When a Muslim Brotherhood army that included a strong al-Qaida element set out to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad, Obama sought congressional approval for airstrikes to support the insurgents – and he did help arm them.
He can’t wait to turn Afghanistan over to the “Tallybon,” as he likes to call them. He even released five of their top commanders from Guantanamo Bay using the excuse of bringing home an American captive. Of course that “prisoner of war” turned out to be a deserter and a Taliban collaborator.
There’s a pattern here. If you can’t see it, check your lenses. Obama supports the Muslim Brotherhood. To expect him to come to Iraq’s aid with air power that can blow away much of the al-Qaida terrorist army amassing on the road to Baghdad would be foolhardy. It’s against all his instincts.
“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”
-Barack Hussein Obama, from Dreams of My Father and The Audacity of Hope
There’s another reason Obama has hesitated to take this obvious action. This will be hard to believe for some, but the facts are becoming more apparent everyday: Obama fosters chaos.
This is what U.S. military air power can do to that Black Flag al-Qaida army right now – today – before it reaches Baghdad.
We can eradicate them. We don’t have to worry about nation-building. We don’t have to worry about what will happen afterward. One thing we know for sure, al-Qaida will truly be on the run after this kind of setback.
I know Obama is not going to listen to me.
I doubt he will listen to Congress. I doubt he will listen to the American people, who are genuinely and understandably tired of foreign wars without end.
But I marvel at the talking-head pundits who are wringing their hands, wondering what we can possibly do to stave off an al-Qaida takeover of Iraq after we poured so much blood, sweat, tears, not to mention billions of dollars, into “nation-building.”
Forget nation-building. What is needed in Iraq right now is a big fiery wrecking ball that hits the bad guys deliriously waving the Black Flags. » Full Article

» OBAMA’S IRS: WHOOPSIE! WE CAN’T COOPERATE; WE ‘LOST’ LERNER’S EMAILS
Tea Party News Network (TPNN) — Lead Story
Alternate title: Sorry, My Dog Ate The Emails. The Obama Administration continually urges Americans to “move along,” and claims that these scandals that plague this administration are “phony scandals.” In fact, in February, President Obama told the nation that there was not even a “smidgen of corruption” to be found in the IRS scandal. We are told that this is a witch-hunt conducted by Republicans.Then why is it that each and every time Republicans push for information on this scandal, the truth is someone elusive? On Friday afternoon, the day this administration uses to release information that they hope the nation will forget by Monday, announced that the IRS had “lost” two years of emails to and from disgraced former IRS chief Lois Lerner.
Yes- you read that right; the IRS, the government agency whose existence rests on the nature of fastidious record-keeping, has “lost” two years of emails. Whoopsie!
