      • Many More

        • ISIS/ISIL – Islamic State in Iraq, Syria and many other nations!

          • ISIS Crisis:

          • ISIS attacks Ala Sahd ….US marines
          • ISIS waging a holy war against Christians?
          • Is it good policy to tell your enemy what you plan to do?

          • In -The -Know Consensus: the threat from Muslim fanatics is growing and Obama admin does not have an effective srategy to deal with it

            • AUMF – Authorization to Use Military Force was requested:

            Vague and non-specific language:

            • THREE-YEAR limit?
            • All necessary and appropriate steps to defeat the enemy?
            • Would impose ban on enduring ground combat operations?
            • Would not impose geographic restrictions?
            • Democrats worry that it gives the president too much discretion to use ground troops to fight an open-ended war.
            • Republicans have the opposite concern, believing that proposal’s ban on “enduring offensive ground operations” is too restrictive.
            • Some believe that a new AUMF is not necessary …operations against terror are authorized by the 2002 AUMF

              •  

              Obama “Mispeaks,” or Gaffes?

              • ISIS is a media phenomenon because they over-hype
              • Compare his responsibility to a big city mayor trying to stop crime?!
              • ISIS is not Islamic??
              • Comparing ISIS to Christians
              • Yemen embassy closed (National Prayer Breakfast)
              • Global warming greater threat than terrorism
