Dollar Short & 6-1/2 Years Short - That was Obama's ISIL Foreign Policy Speech?

By Rob Janicki

If President Obama thinks his Wednesday night speech was going to move his polling

upward, I would be very surprised.  His speech was warmed over with the occasional rhetorical flourish.  Let's remember that less than two weeks ago, President Obama indicated that he had no strategy to deal with ISIS terrorists.  It was just seven months ago that President Obama referred offhandedly to ISIS as the Junior Varsity of terrorists.

The only thing that really surprised me in Obama's comments was to learn the barbarian terrorists of ISIS or ISIL, if you prefer, are NOT Muslims.  Now that's real news, since these bloodthirsty barbarians of the worst kind in history, proclaim that everything they do is in the name of Allah.  Now correct me, if I am mistaken, but isn't Allah the God of Islam?

At this time, Obama has managed to muster a coalition of 9 countries to put down the Islamist terrorists of ISIS.  George W. Bush managed to get a coalition of 34 countries for the invasion of Iraq to depose Saddam Hussein, but there's still time for Obama to bump up the numbers of nations agreeing to join the battle against ISIS.

I will really be impressed when, or if, Obama ever manages to get any of the Muslim countries to actually supply fighting forces to engage ISIS forces.  I'm not holding my breath on this ever happening and I suggest you don't either.

I would suggest buying stock in American munitions companies, since I expect there will be great use  of munitions in bombing the forces of ISIS for many years to come.

In conclusion, has it occurred to anyone that ISIS would not have had the opportunity to grow, if it were not for the fact that Obama purposely destroyed negotiations with Iraq to leave a residual force in Iraq, rather than pulling out all our troops in 2011.  Essentially, Obama screwed up royally by pulling all American forces and influences out of Iraq.  Now millions of people are paying dearly, often with their lives, for Obama's foreign policy failures in the Muslim world.

Obama reiterated in his speech that the U.S. would pull out of Afghanistan by the end of this year.  Exactly what does Obama think will happen in Afghanistan that will be different from what has happened in Iraq?  Does Obama really expect a different result by pulling out all of the U.S. troops in Afghanistan?  No offense, but isn't doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome, the definition of insanity?

Obama has created a mess in the Middle East by his own actions.  There is no tinkering that will reverse that condition.  Obama is, in effect, a captive of his own long held views of the world patched together from his communist father's dreams, the teachings of his communist mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, the preaching of his Pastor, Reverend Wright, who preaches Black Liberation Theology, a communist inspired view of how whites have managed to enslave the black man over time and continents and a host of other like minded mentors.

Expect to see President Obama's last two years in office as an abject series of failures.  The November midterm congressional elections will seal Obama's fate and no stump speeches every week will change the fact that his presidency has been and will end up a failure.
