ANALYSIS/OPINION:

“The future must not belong to those who slander the Prophet of Islam”

- Barack Obama

I’ve written many times that one cannot listen to President Barack Obama’s words when he discusses the Islamic State and protecting America from terrorism. You have to look at the results of his actions, the consequences of his policies. These results include the establishment of a murderous Islamic caliphate across the Middle East, providing a “safe space” for jihadis to plan and train for attacks against our homeland and elsewhere. The entire Afghanistan war was fought to deny such a place to terrorists, after the horrors of 9/11. George Bush’s call to “fight them over there so you don’t have to fight them over here,” still rings true.

However, now I have to eat my words a little bit. I believe you can listen to what Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry have been recently saying, if you listen very closely. What they are saying is that under this administration, America will not defend itself, and we deserve any terrorist attacks that may follow.

At the G20 summit in Turkey this week, Barack Obama said this, “…what I’m not interested in doing is posing or pursuing some notion of American leadership or America winning…” Did you hear that? In other words, as long as I am president, we are not going to defeat the Islamic State. These words were spoken by the Commander in Chief of the United States, the supposed leader of the free world.

Tuesday, while in Paris of all places, John Kerry said this, “There’s something different about what happened from Charlie Hebdo, and I think everybody would feel that…There was a sort of particularized focus and perhaps even a legitimacy in terms of – not a legitimacy, but a rationale that you could attach yourself to somehow and say, okay, they’re really angry because of this and that.” Kerry went on to describe the Friday terror attacks in Paris as “indiscriminate” and unlike the Charlie Hebdo attack, not to “aggrieve one particular sense of wrong. It was to terrorize people.”

In other words, you (America) deserve whatever is going to happen, it is a legitimate cause. And believe me, it will happen. We have been too lax for too long. Recent ISIS social media from places like Chicago have warned, “We are in your streets.”

The Obama administration never had any intention of defeating or destroying ISIS. On the contrary, the White House has gone to great lengths to prevent ISIS from being degraded or destroyed. The campaign has been micromanaged from the Oval Office to prevent our military from prosecuting the mission effectively, to the chagrin of commanders in theater.

The goal of Obama from the outset of his presidency has been to weaken American power. In his eyes, and in his adviser’s eyes, America is bad and always has been. We deserve to be taken down a notch. In the words of Obama’s pastor, “Not God Bless America, but God Damn America!” Valerie Jarrett’s family, his most trusted adviser, came from Iran and were closely connected to Soviet, communist spies. Obama’s father was a communist sympathizer. This is the way he and his advisers think.

Yes, unfortunately, ISIS will strike America and strike her hard. It is only a matter of time. It is too late to prevent this. They seeds have already been sown, the jihadis already lie in wait.

I have a question for all my liberal friends who voted for this man without thinking, who drank the Kool-Aid. Do you value the lives of your children, your family, your friends? Do you value your hometown? Are you ready to sacrifice your children on the altar of liberal denial and the ‘progressive’ agenda?

Are you ready to see New York City or Washington, D.C., unlivable for 50 years after a dirty bomb? Are you ready to see your local power, sewage, or water plants destroyed after a cyber attack?

For it is coming and it’s going to be bad. But you deserve it.
