Op-ed:
A Declaration of War That is Anything But
By: Diane Sori

“EVIL IS REAL! There is no light gray...murdering innocent people to move a political point of view has been, is and always will be evil.”
- former President George W. Bush's words about ISIS and the atrocities they're committing

"It is not the authorization of another ground war, like Afghanistan or Iraq." 
- Barack HUSSEIN Obama's words mocking Bush taking America to war after 9/11

Let's start with some truth...Obama lost the peace that Bush had won in Iraq... equating to thousands of American lives lost and American blood shed having been for naught. And the Iraqi people who once held up proud 'purple fingers' are now drenched in blood and lots of it. And all because Barack HUSSEIN Obama does NOT want to win...period.

And isn't it sad that it took this man months after the horrific beheading of two Americans to ask Congress for an official Declaration of War...a Declaration of War with stipulations that is...stipulations because he dare NOT step too much on the brethren's toes. Simply put, Obama's resolution asks Congress to authorize his going to war against ISIS so long as the war does NOT include “enduring offensive ground combat operations;” so long as it does NOT go on for longer than three years; and extremely critical...so long as other authorizations already in place (especially those put in place by GWB) be repealed first.

Selectively choosing which authorizations he wants to keep and which he wants to do away with...such as the authorization that allowed Bush to invade Iraq in 2002... while keeping the ones he favors...like the one that allowed him to use drone strikes against suspected terrorists, like the one that allowed him to initiate airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, and like the one allowing him to send 3,000 military advisers back to Iraq...Obama has again proven himself to be both partisan driven and anything but a much needed commander-in-chief.

And with this particular resolution...actually a draft authorization for use of military force (AUMF)...America's traitor-in-chief has done it again...appeased and placated the enemy with stipulations that will allow them the time to actually grow stronger... appeased the Democrats with an oh-so carefully worded proposal so as to make war palatable to the kumbaya left while forcing the Republicans to either pass or NOT pass what they know is anything but a true Declaration of War...and allowing for the passing of the buck onto the next president so ISIS becomes their headache...and all while jeopardized our national security by his very act of inaction...inaction in his refusing to deploy American 'boots' to do what 'We the People' know needs to be done.

And in Obama's saying that American 'boots' will be sent to the ISIS theater of war only “If we had actionable intelligence about a gathering of ISIL leaders, and our partners didn’t have the capacity to get them, I would be prepared to order our special forces to take action, because I will not allow these terrorists to have a safe haven,” Obama is basically eliminating the U.S. from doing what only the U.S. can do...destroy ISIS in full. But then again why would he do that when the fact is that Barack HUSSEIN Obama still will NOT recognize let alone say that ISIS is indeed a terrorist group...a muslim islamist terrorist group...and why would he do that when he continues to refer to ISIS as ISIL...ISIL...the acronym for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant...ISIL...a word that salutes those wishing to wipe Israel off the map for the Levant's map is minus the Jewish State of Israel.

But Obama knows all this and simply put...he just does NOT give a damn that America be the victor in this 21st NOT 11th century war...a war he alluded to in his despicable Prayer Breakfast comments.

So after sending his resolution to Congress for discussion and then for hoped-for approval, this miserable excuse of a president said with a straight face that 'his' actions...it's all about 'him' after all...would “show our troops and the world that Americans are united in this mission.” Oh really...tell me how when the resolution presented puts a time frame on how long America will be “united in this mission”... as in three years...for he just told ISIS...just like he told al-Qaeda and the Taliban...how long they need to lay low before they can safely resurface even stronger and more vicious than before.

And the sum total of what Obama wants his mere three-page resolution to do in regards to the enemy adds up to zero for in NO way does it lay out a viable and workable strategy to defeat ISIS...it barely lays out a plan to contain ISIS. First, this Obama fiasco provides NO geographic limits on the battle, meaning what small amount of ground forces that will be fighting will be stretched to the breaking point in an attempt to cover all bases; second, it limits American ground troops by banning the afore mentioned “enduring offensive ground combat operations,” in other words it bans a much-needed army of occupation for an extended period of time and allows for Special Ops only if Obama gives the go-ahead (remember Benghazi and know that said go-ahead will NOT be given); and third, it expires after three years unless renewed by Congress meaning Obama has once again given the enemy America's time table for war.

And if approved...and I truly hope the Republican-controlled Congress will toss this nonsense in the garbage...it would be the first time Congress has 'officially and legally' authorized this president's use of military force in an actual declaration of war as all other military actions by Obama have been done unilaterally ignoring the War Powers clause of the document he so loves to trample...the U.S. Constitution.

So now as we await hearings on Obama's proposal, remember that the military campaign in both Iraq and Syria that began six months ago will continue whether Congress approves this resolution or not, and remember too that to defeat this enemy a detailed and fine-tuned military strategy is a must NOT a strategy that starts off limiting military options. So, what do some of America's military leaders and those in the political know think of Obama's plan...a plan that is NOTHING but a rehash of the to-date failed airstrikes and airstrikes alone.

First, House Homeland Security Committee Chair Michael McCaul (R-TX) says the the authorization Obama has proposed, “ties our hands and specifically ties the hands of the generals.” Adding that he would rather have NO AUMF than the one Obama is proposing because of Obama's insistence the NO ground troops will be sent unless there is a direct threat to our homeland, McCaul clearly recognizes the fact that without American 'boots' going on the offensive ISIS cannot be defeated.

And according to Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) Obama “has never had a good strategy,” and he went so far as to say that he believes that if Obama had bombed al-Assad’s government forces in Syria as he proposed doing last year, then ISIS would have already taken over all of Syria. Translation: Obama does NOT have a clue what constitutes sound military judgment and that lack of judgment would continue on against ISIS itself as this most miserable excuse of a president has replaced our top military leaders and strategists with NOTHING but party 'yes-men' and islamic sympathizers.

As for the generals and military officials themselves...generals like four-star General Martin E. Dempsey and General Lloyd J. Austin, former Commanding General of U.S. Forces in Iraq, many believe Obama's proposal is weakened by its very words “enduring offensive ground combat operations.” Ambiguous in its meaning leaving the interpretation of its words to Obama alone...and we all know how dangerous that could be...it basically NOT only puts a definitive time frame on a specific operation but it also leaves the amount of 'boots' needed for said operation up to Obama and his political cronies alone instead of the generals on the ground who know best.

In fact, Defense Intelligence Agency’s Lt. Gen. Vincent Stewart, in speaking before the House Armed Services Committee, did NOT hold back his disdain for Obama's proposal. Saying he is tired of the lack of leadership coming from this White House, Stewart reiterated the fact that ISIS is growing rapidly, and that Obama’s either pathetic response or NO response is simply NOT getting the job done. “U.S. President Obama has no intention of being a leading part of that team,” Stewart said in reference to the coalition Obama claims he's leading. Adding, “When will he (Obama) learn that diplomacy doesn’t work with savages!”...note that Stewart said 'savages' something Obama will NOT say about his brethren. (article continues below video.)

So now we wait to see what the Republican-held Congress will do as hearings are held...discussions behind the scenes take place...backdoor deals are made...and all sorts of placating to the enemy becomes a sad reality. But what we cannot afford is for politicians to decide what 'truth' will be disseminated and what 'truth' will be kept from the public's consumption for the simple fact is that today's world is in the sad shape it's in due to Barack HUSSEIN Obama's weak stance on escalating terrorism coupled with his pushing his own personal agenda...his own personal islamist agenda that is.

Op-ed:
Again Announcing Our Date of Withdrawal
By: Diane Sori

“It’s not going to be a source of terrorist attacks again.” 
- Barack HUSSEIN Obama's words on Christmas Day 2014 concerning Afghanistan...said just as the Taliban 'woke up'

OK...let's get something straight right up front...while NOT actually pulling the trigger, brandishing the knife, or lighting the match... Barack HUSSEIN Obama is most definitely responsible for the deaths of Americans Peter Kassig, Steven Sotloff, James Foley, and now Kayla Jean Mueller. Four Americans brutally slaughtered and all because this man announced our date of withdrawal from the Middle East theaters of war, thus allowing time for ISIS to be born and thrive.

And let's NOT forget Britons David Haines and Alan Henning, Frenchman Hervé Gourdel, and Japanese Kenji Goto and Haruna Yukawa...and there are others as well...including Jordan's fighter pilot Lt. Moaz al-Kasasbeh burned alive in a video seen around the world.

NOT soldiers but journalists, a mountaineering guide, aide workers, and civilian contractors, these people were murdered solely for either doing their jobs of reporting the news or trying to give aid and comfort to those caught up in the horrors of war. And even while most were sympathetic to the enemy to some degree all were beaten, tortured, and probably submitted to all things unspeakable before they died at the hands of the savages...yet still none had to die.

None had to die yet all did die and the man indirectly responsible for their deaths, upon hearing of said deaths, issued the compensatory 'America grieves with you' statement to the victims families as he headed off to play golf or to fund raise. Or he simply remained quiet...leaving the families alone with their grief...leaving a nation in shock.

Dead Americans and dead allies...a sad reality because this man announced our date of departure from the Middle East theaters of war. Remember, during his re-election campaign Obama pledged to "end the war in Afghanistan in 2014" but doing so NOT because we would win the war by then, but doing so for his legacy alone. And so on June 22, 2011, Obama announced for the world to hear...for the enemy to hear and plan accordingly...that 10,000 U.S. troops would be withdrawn by the end of 2011 and an additional 23,000 troops will leave the country by the summer of 2012. Saying that he is leaving roughly 10,800 troops behind until the end of 2015...down from 38,000 at the start of 2014...Obama plans to reduce those 10,800 troops by about half by the end of this year when a NATO-led mission... Operation Resolute Support...becomes fully operational. And Obama has stated ad-nauseum that he wants all American troops out of Afghanistan by the end of 2016 when he leaves office so he can pat himself on the back saying he kept his promise to end the war NO matter that heads will continue to roll...literally.

And on Christmas Day just barely two short months ago, Obama said that the U.S. is “ending our combat mission in Afghanistan” but that a number of U.S. forces would remain there “to conduct counterterrorism operations” against what he called the “remnants of al-Qaeda.” You know...the Taliban who laid low, regrouped, and were now back in full operational mode...just ask the families of those children slaughtered in the Taliban attack on the Pakistani army school.

And what of Iraq...'Bush's war' Obama loves to say...where ISIS morphed from 'al-Qaeda in Iraq' into what he called a “JV team”...a “JV team” of barbaric murderers, thugs, and savages. On December 14, 2011, Obama, in a speech at Fort Bragg, announced that he was pulling out the last of our troops from Iraq and that the U.S. was, “leaving behind a sovereign, stable and self-reliant Iraq, with a representative government.” Well that worked out real well now didn't it as ISIS just waited and bided their time until we were gone, and now that “JV team” has turned into the biggest threat the civilized world faces today. But I guess Obama fears his own head will roll if he dares to speak the truth about ISIS for ISIS' muslim blood flows through his veins as well.

So the man who believes that climate change is a far greater threat to this country's national security than ISIS and their ilk, has proven time and again that his ideology...his radical islamic ideology...has been successfully worked to made our beloved America weaker in the eyes of the world. 'Towing the line' by speaking the words of those out to kill us all...as in his recent remarks comparing 11th century Christianity to today's ISIS along with him refusing to utter the must be spoken words 'muslim islamic terrorists'...lets 'We the People' know just where his true allegiances lie.

And Obama's NEVER doing what's in both America's best interest and in the best interest of securing stability in the Middle East region, has this miserable excuse of a president trying to cover his lies, his misspeaks, and his oh so liberal and very traitorous agenda in a cloak of deception that few president's before him have honed to such a fine art. And part of his current deception is his refusal to publicly state who is the chief money supplier...through private donations...of ISIS but then again Obama...good little muslim that he is and one whose ISIS policy remains but a policy of containment...must protect that country as it's home to islam’s...and his...most holy of sites...as in the Sacred Mosque in Mecca and the Mosque of the Prophet in Medina. And that is the predominately Sunni country of Saudi Arabia.

And while Riyadh lists ISIS as a terrorist group that poses a direct threat to the kingdom's security...Saudi's kingdom right now is in transition after the death of their king...a transition into possibly becoming more radicalized if the radical islamic faction of the House of Saud triumphs. And Saudi Arabia is followed close behind in funding ISIS by Qatar, Turkey, and Kuwait...Kuwait being the country all the money is funneled through. And remember, all are supposed allies...all are oil-rich...and all are stabbing the U.S. in the back with Obama's approval of course.

And let's NOT forget that Obama is directly responsible for arming at least part of ISIS' army starting with his Benghazi fiasco where he (I believe) was 'gun running' U.S. weapons along with sums of cash from Benghazi through Turkey to the anything but moderate 'so-called' Syrian rebels fighting al-Assad's government forces...rebels who were once merely sympathetic to ISIS but who are now actually part of the ISIS war machine.

So while yesterday Obama asked Congress to formally authorize war against ISIS in the form of a draft resolution to allow the continued use of force but one that will NOT authorize a ground war...the plan he presented was basically more of the same old proven to be ineffective systemic and what he claims is a "sustained airstrike campaign" in both Iraq and Syria. Saying he would only send our troops "into harm’s way when absolutely necessary for our national security"...a strategy that would ban the U.S. from "enduring offensive combat operations"...Obama just threw the brunt of the war onto ill-equipped and untrained local forces...threw it on them deliberately so that they would lose. Further saying that he is holding U.S. involvement to three years tops, Obama is basically passing the ISIS problem over to the next president to deal with. (article continues below video)

Translation: this vile, cowardly, and islamic terrorist sympathizer of a man...the man who keeps calling ISIS 'ISIL' as a shout-out to the Levant...did indeed again announce the time frame as to when we will end America's involvement in this particular theater of war, thus giving ISIS time to lay low... regroup...recruit...and refill their war chest...to come back even stronger then before. To come back, kidnap, and kill even more Americans and American allies alike...all while he ever so happily heads back to the golf course. 

And any and all new deaths...both military and civilian...both American and allied...will again lie at the feet of Barack HUSSEIN Obama...America's very own traitor-in-chief.
