While some question whether or not
Barack Obama is a Muslim, there can be no doubt of his Islamic sympathies
concerning those that advise him, along with the
support and
family ties he has to the Muslim Brotherhood and
his foundation's ties to terrorist groups.
With that said, one should always keep in mind that there are Islamists
who are much more devout to Islam that others. Notice, I said devout,
not radical and not extreme. They are merely seeking to
adhere to Islam more than others. These people will kill their own over
the slightest deviation from the Quran. The new Islamic State is such a group and now they have warned Barack Hussein Obama that they are coming for him.
The Washington Times
reports:
High-ranking U.S. officials said Wednesday that not
only are Sunni radicals with the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant
"worse than al Qaeda," but that the group has a message for the
president: "We're coming for you, Barack Obama."
Brett McGurk, the deputy assistant secretary of state, told
lawmakers at a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing that ISIL may
have "changed its name," but that it's still al Qaeda.
Does Obama look as though he's worried? Not at all. In fact, he's out playing golf,
fundraising and
living it up at taxpayer expense while
failing to do the job he is being paid to do, allowing the border to be overrun and
arming our enemies overseas. Even the
London Telegraph is starting to get the picture now
and has said "The degree to which Barack Obama is now phoning it in –
sleepwalking perfunctorily through his second term, amid golf rounds and
dinner parties – is astonishing."
Having acquired US arms and vehicles left behind by cowardly Iraqis
trained by America, the Islamic State has become a full blown army. Top
US officials have now said the Islamic State is a greater threat than
al-Qaeda.
According to the Hill:
"It is al Qaeda in its doctrine, ambition and,
increasingly, in its threat to U.S. interests," Brett McGurk, a deputy
assistant secretary of State, told lawmakers at a House Foreign Affairs
Committee hearing. "In fact, it is worse than al Qaeda."
McGurk said the group had strengthened its capabilities and is "no longer a terrorist organization. It is a full-blown army."
…
The testimony from senior officials sparked alarm and frustration
on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers said more should have been done to
counter ISIS sooner.
I'm sorry, what? Aren't a lot of the soldiers that are a part of the Islamic State the same individuals these same lawmakers
funded and
armed in Syria?
Why yes, yes they are, and now they are saying more should have been done to counter them? I can't take these guys seriously.
Even more hypocritical than the lawmakers is Obama's Attorney General
Eric Holder, who claims that the threat of Islamic State fighters
infiltrating the US was "more frightening than anything I think I've
seen as attorney general."
Really Mr. Holder? Aren't you the one that has overseen the
arming of Mexican drug cartels, who have been known to kill Americans on our side of the border,
including federal agents? Aren't you the one standing by silently and aiding and abetting illegal activity at the border as known Islamic jihadists
pay money to get across the border and
slip in unawares? Wasn't your Justice Department behind the
producer of the phony film that was blamed on Benghazi? Was not the administration before the one you serve in allowing al-Qaeda to slip into the country and
instead
of the federal government heeding the warning of one of its employees,
turned the police state on her for blowing the whistle? Is the DOJ
you oversee doing anything to stop the non-enforcement of law to deal
with the border crisis? No, you are ignoring it all and are criminally
complicit by not holding the Executive Branch to the standard of the
law.
Personally, I have to wonder if Holder and Obama can even grasp the
depth of their lies in the situation, or any situation for that matter.
Many lawmakers seem to echo this sentiment.
"What it seems like is the administration is just paralyzed. They
just don't know what to do," said Iraq War veteran Rep. Adam Kinzinger
(R-IL).
"I'm renewing the call to the administration for massive manned
military air strikes to push back this very, very bad cancer that's
encroaching on the Middle East," he said.
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce (R-CA) claims that
the Obama administration has ignored the threat for way too long and has
even rejected requests by the Iraqis to use drone strikes against the
Islamic State since August 2013.
Even Democrat Representative Eliot Engel wonders what is going on
with the administration. "I supported the president's decision to send
assessment teams to Iraq, but I'm cautious of our future action. We
cannot end up in another sectarian quagmire in Iraq."
I would say, too late Rep. Engel, you are in one.
For the Islamic State to deal with Barack Obama, would probably be a
relief to many patriotic Americans. However, if they want to start
something with the American people, then that is a completely different
scenario. Just a warning to the Islamic State, we won't
turn and run like the Iraqis faced in Mosul.
This is our home. If you step foot here and think you are just going to
do here what you are doing over there, then in the words of
Judas Priest, "You've got another thing coming."
