Lindsey Graham: ‘There’s a 9/11 coming’

French and USA officials have said all signs point to ISIS being responsible for the attacks. Such hopefuls have mostly struggled when confronted with national security questions or have argued that their lack of experience is actually an asset that appeals to voters fed up with career politicians. The group is also known by the acronyms ISIL and ISIS.

The president warned that regional strife would persist “until we get the Syria political situation resolved”.

But he stresses “we will go no further”, saying that there will be no ground troops and France will intervene only in Iraq, and not Syria. “This is an attack not just on Paris and not just on people of France, but this is an attack on all of humanity and the universal values that we share”. Trump said on Twitter.

The attacks in France, which French authorities say were perpetrated by ISIS, provided another reminder to the leaders of the world’s largest economies gathering in Turkey of the unsafe spread of extremist ideology. The US has not yet said whether it believes the group is responsible for the carnage.

For the Democrats, who were preparing for a second presidential debate, scheduled for Saturday evening here in Iowa, the overnight horror recast the prime-time encounter as a likely examination of the candidates’ national-security record and approach. They have not gained ground in Iraq.

Obama had said in an ABC interview taped before the attacks that the United States has “contained” the Islamic State from expanding its land grab in Iraq and Syria.

The United States has been successful in containing the momentum of ISIS, but more needs to be done to “completely decapitate” their operations, President Obama said in an exclusive interview with ABC News’ Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos. Sanders wants voters to recall that he took a rare and unpopular stand against the Iraq war when Clinton voted for it. It is that war that many analysts blame for rocking the despotic equilibrium of the Middle East and leading indirectly to the rise of the Islamic State. And in Syria-they’ll come in, they’ll leave. A formal meeting between the two men is not scheduled, though Obama was seen engaged in intense conversation with the Russian leader on the sidelines of the summit.

The GOP presidential candidate later detailed his plan for dealing with the terrorist organization.

Islamic State has been the target of thousands of U.S.-led air strikes. With IS claiming to be behind the mayhem on European soil, the White House had to defend the president’s claims. “He may [be] exhausted of war, but our enemies are not exhausted of killing us”, Cruz said during an appearance on “Fox and Friends”.

Mid-field candidates Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Sen.

In his statement on Friday night, Rubio offered the first hints of how his rhetoric on ISIS could evolve past his frequent and vehement critiques of Obama’s leadership style.

“What we’ve made clear to the French is we will be shoulder to shoulder with them in this response…”

Reports that GOP strategists are pining for a Romney rerun surfaced last week before the Paris attacks.

“These dogs are unleashed”.

‘One step ahead? We don’t seem to be on step ahead of any terrorist group these days!’ Tapper said.

Romney’s op-ed Sunday also mirrored the tone many Republicans have adopted since the Paris attacks, setting an ominous mood and using foreboding language that envisions America as a vulnerable fortress against evil, the NY Times reported Saturday.
