Hubby has been watching a lot of CNN at night... I woke up and watched for a while one night and was shocked how organized ISIS was ... their own police force etc. I had no clue!
I just see all this stuff on here and it's mostly people bitching at each other so I get turned off to all this "hub bub" about what is going on but wow......
ISIS is strong. They are well funded and well organized. They have made threats and will continue to carry them out.
They have slaughtered so many Christians, but Obama never got upset about that. He minimized radical Islamist terrorists by claiming they weren't a big threat even as the bodies piled up.
Then some Muslims were running from them and suddenly Obama saw a crisis. Even though there was never any urgency to offer help to the Christians, Obama wants to bring in Muslim refugees and very few Christians despite the non-Muslims facing the biggest threat from the radical Islamists.
People are concerned about ISIS members joining the refugees. Instead of being reassuring, Obama is being accusatory and flippant to Americans who want to keep terrorists out of this country.
He is divisive and has no shame in favoring Muslims over everyone else.
Sending Muslims all over the world sounds more like one of ISIS's goals than the plan of a president concerned about national security. Obama mocks the public and ignores that the majority are very concerned about deliberately importing ISIS members after they've proven that they mean what they say when they want infidels dead.
Obama refused to start bringing a lot of Christian refugees in 2011 because of the security risk. He then cited the inability to properly vet people. Suddenly, that no longer matters even though ISIS is known to be planning to use the crisis as a Trojan horse.
Obama’s Statement from 2011 Shatters His Current Remarks on Bringing Refugees Into the US
Obama was not interested in helping the Christians escape persecution by the radical Islamists as thousands have been brutally tortured and murdered. Both Dems and Repubs wanted to help them, but Obama cited security concerns as he reluctantly accepted a few Christians. When it comes to non-Muslims being slaughtered, he sees bumps in the roads and setbacks. When it's Muslims, he sees a crisis. He wasn't concerned about a lot of Christians being slaughtered. Now that Muslims are asking for help, Obama has done a complete turnaround. Security measures that were important to him when Christians sought help are out the window and he demands that we take refugees. The number he wants to take keeps increasing and any concern over security is met with hostility. Obama does not question Muslim refugees the same way he did Christians. That despite ISIS members hiding among the refugees, which makes the security threat greater now.
It's becoming clear that, for Obama, this is more about reaching out to Muslims than anything else. His lack of concern for Christians and gays being slaughtered by radical Muslims was telling. His total lack of concern now for ISIS using the current crisis to spread their people across the globe is even more telling. Obama knows what's what. He just didn't want to help Christians and will do anything for Muslims. The safety of the American people doesn't play into it. It was an excuse when it was Christians seeking help since they posed little danger and now it's something to be ignored because he is standing with the Muslims, as promised. He said he would if the political winds shifted in an ugly direction. He is the one who shifted them by shaping foreign policy to favor even the most radical Muslims. Having our own government in bed with CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood and other radicals is about as ugly as it gets.
"He explained that more and more countries were starting to realize that it was their duty to help. Despite the fact that, in the last week alone, multiple refugees traced to Syria have been caught entering the United States illegally, he promised:
"As long as I’m President we are going to keep stepping up."
But it was just a few short years ago, in 2011, that the Obama Administration stepped down, restricting the number of Iraqi asylum-seekers they accepted — based on just such a security threat.
And that was after a bipartisan effort by Congress to ease restrictions on asylum seekers as Iraqi Christians and Egyptian Coptic Christians were being systematically targeted for extermination. Representative Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.) explained:
"Going to the market and riding the bus, Iraqi Christians face death every day. There is
Eshoo is no stranger to the effects of religious persecution, as she herself is the granddaughter of Assyrian and Armenian Christians who fled the genocide carried out by the Ottoman Turks and their Kurdish allies at the end of World War I.
Representative Christopher Smith (R-NJ) stated his agreement:
"Human rights has been significantly demoted in the past two years, and it’s appalling. This administration gets an F for its response to human rights abuses."
What has changed since 2011 that made what was once considered a necessary action to ensure national security an action that is now being summarily dismissed as "un-American"?"
