Four-Star General Tells Congress: Al-Qaeda Has “Grown Four-Fold in Last Five Years”

On Tuesday four-star General Jack Keane told Congress that al-Qaeda has “grown fourfold in the last five years.”
Bridget Johnson at PJ Media reported:

The former vice chief of staff of the Army warned the Senate Armed Services Committee today that al-Qaeda has “grown fourfold in the last five years.”

“AQ and its affiliates exceeds Iran in beginning to dominate multiple countries,” retired four-star Gen. Jack Keane testified.

Using a term that the Obama administration now eschews, Keane called radical Islam “the major security challenge of our generation.”…

…”The Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, ISIS, is an outgrowth from Al-Qaeda in Iraq, which was defeated in Iraq by 2009.”

“After U.S. troops pulled out of Iraq in 2011, ISIS reemerged as a terrorist organization in Iraq, moved into Syria in 2012, and began seizing towns and villages from the Syria-Iraq border all the way to the western Syria from Aleppo to Damascus,” he reminded the committee.

That leads to an “unmistakable” conclusion that “our policies have failed,” Keane added.

  2. To most, the policy is a failure. To Obama, failure, which creates the outcome he wants, is actually a success.
    Obama gives the false impression he is against Al Qaeda when in fact he is supporting them. He will look you in the eye and lie. Smile and walk away.
    He uses deception as the Koran instructs.

  3. If Obama wanted to set the US up for an Islamic takeover, what would he be doing differently than what he is doing now?
