Freedom Outpost
While watching the news every night, the more the talk about Obama’s so-called “strategy” for defeating ISIS or ISIL or whatever they’re calling it, coming out of Washington D.C. looks more and more dismal every single day. Hell, our President can’t even keep people from hopping over his own fence, so why would I trust him to keep my life and the lives of my family safe from any threat? Every single active duty general officer (and all of the retired ones) agrees: you absolutely cannot defeat this terrorist army without using American combat troops on the ground. To even think, that by spending five hundred billion tax payer dollars to train and equip the supposed “moderate” Syrian rebels and expect them to defeat ISIS is the absolute worst idea ever conceived. Reports from news agencies have come in that at least 100 individuals holding U.S. passports have left the country, trained with ISIS, and come back to the U.S. don’t give me any confidence in this administration’s ability either. The administration released a statement that the DHS and FBI were “monitoring” these individuals, but what are they waiting for them to do? Will they have to blow something up and murder American citizens before they are arrested? Why are these terrorists still able to even get off a plane in this country? Even Canada has said that if you go to the Middle East and fight for ISIS, you will lose your passport and your freedom if you try to return there.
The vote by congress to give Syrian rebels five hundred billion dollars was nothing more than a token show piece at best. We are almost 18 trilllion dollars in debt as it is, and spending another half trillion to equip a questionable, non-vetted, force of five thousand and expecting them to do the job for us is ludicrous.
