If We Want to Destroy ISIS, We Can Destroy ISIS

If we want to destroy ISIS, we can destroy ISIS. Perhaps I am stating the obvious, but I want to state it anyway. Why? Because I am not hearing it enough.

I’m certainly not hearing it from the White House, where the original goal of destruction is barely mentioned. President Barack Obama is listless. He’s also petulant, pointing political fingers at Republicans. But he doesn’t have a trace of a coherent policy to destroy ISIS. Not a trace.

This is from General Jack Keane, in his recent congressional testimony: “Having the best security defensive system in America is not sufficient; we must have as good an offense to stop and defeat ISIS. We do not. We are not even close.”

But very few people are talking about destroying ISIS. Destroy. Putting a hard and intense edge on it. Repeating it.

Some in the Republican party and on the campaign trail are saying it. But not enough. Not repeatedly. Not so as to boost the morale of the country.

We need determination. We need to be unflinching. We need to be focused on the goal of destroying ISIS.

We are at war.

Take the military and covert forces off the leash. Let them do their jobs.

This president doesn't want ISIS destroyed and will only give the orders to do so if he has no other choice

Everybody needs to go back and watch that video. I really think most Americans even most democrats don't want to see whats happening in europe happen here but the MSM has an obligation to inform the american public what is happening and so far they haven't done it, not even Fox news. So far the only one really saying much about it is Trump. And of course this blog, Thanks Joe.
