Obama says USA will not relent in fight against Islamic State

It is the lack of leadership by this president that is encouraging the terrorists.

The French seem to be groping for a course that would increase pressure on Islamic State, while stopping short of the major military escalation that Obama has ruled out. These include Australia, Canada, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan.

Ultimately, the United States is at war, whether President Obama wants to acknowledge it or not. Hope that it is not too late, that Obama’s reluctance to involve us more deeply until now hasn’t made any swift resolution increasingly hard.

Speaking to reporters in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, President Obama said the ISIL terrorists “cannot strike a mortal blow” to the US, according to the AP, but acting like the organization is a existential threat only elevates their status. He noted that 15 countries deployed personnel to train and support local forces in Iraq.

The President’s aides maintain that public confidence in his response to the ISIS threat will rebound in time, pointing to Obama’s legacy as the leader who ordered the missions to take out top terrorist leaders from Osama bin Laden to “Jihadi John”.

The attack on Paris resulting in the death of scores and wounding of more than 300, the closing of the French borders for the first time since World War II complicates matters.

United Nations secretary general Ban Ki-moon said on Sunday he has urged Russian Federation and the United States to cooperate on rooting out terrorism. “ISIL is expanding. They just put out a video saying it is their intent to attack this country”. These nations and groups are now “part of a global movement against ISIL and its twisted ideology”.

President Obama said America shouldn’t live in fear of ISIS.

The refugees Obama met with have all been cleared to come to the USA and have been assigned to specific cities, the White House said. The U.S. could never be at war with any religion because the United States is made up of multiple religions. “Be assured that we stand with you against this new evil that blasphemes against the name of Islam”.

“Prejudice and discrimination help IS and undermine our values”.

He said IS “can’t beat us on the battlefield so they try to terrorize us into being afraid”. “We’re not talking about 100,000 people or 50,000 armed soldiers”, says Marco Rubio, (R) Presidential Candidate. Then perhaps we might have a few relief from an interventionist foreign policy that is destroying our financial and national security. Anytime we see their leaders, we’re able to quite effectively take out their leaders.

“Once this network is destroyed – and it will be – there may be others that pop up in different parts of the world, and so we’re going to have to continue to take seriously how we maintain the infrastructure that we’ve built to prevent this”. “Even as we do that, we want to make sure that we don’t lose our own values and our own principles”. Perhaps even more alarming for Obama, more Democrats say he has no strategy than believe he has a blueprint for success. And they will reiterate their “shared determination to confront the scourge of terrorism”, the White House also said.

“As I outlined this fall at the United Nations”, he said, “we have a comprehensive strategy using all elements of our power, military, intelligence, economic, development and the strength of our communities”.
