Barry Doesnt Have The Cojones To Crush Anyone! Hes ALL Talk! How Do You Crush Them When Youre STILL Promising No Boots On The Ground? His Incompetence Has Put Him Between A Rock And A Hard Place With No Idea What To Do!! President Barack Obama surprised many observers Wednesday with his brevity and anger when he spoke about the brutal murder of American photojournalist James Foley at the hands of militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS or ISIL). It was Obama as youve never seen him before, as The Huffington Post put it on the sites banner. Some observers on Twitter said he sounded almost Bush-ian, a reference to President George W. Bush. And some analysts think it could mean the start of a long, extended campaign against the group, which Obama compared to a cancer and said doesnt belong in the 21st century. Some analysts think it is likely that Obama will significantly change the mission against ISIS to, in the words of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry , crush the group. For a war-tired American public, the mission will be rebranded as a battle in the war on terror, rather than in terms of the Iraqi war that the vast majority of Americans, in retrospect, consider a disaster. Its a clear escalation of rhetoric — and will lead to an escalation in policy, geopolitical expert Ian Bremmer, the president of Eurasia Group, told Business Insider in an email. This moves the United States from stopping ISIS gains on the ground (at least against the Kurds and the Yazidis) to active efforts to destroy ISIS. The U.S. has moved from limited military aims and deterrence towards a broader anti-ISIS military campaign.
