ISLAMIC STATE: US President Barack Obama spoke on the US decision to train Syrian opposition fighters and conduct strikes against Islamic State targets in his latest weekly address, released on Saturday. Obama said that “the world” was against the Islamic State, and thanked Congress for supporting his administration’s proposals for action. “Over 40 countries have offered to help the broad campaign against ISIL so far, from training and equipment, to humanitarian relief, to flying combat missions,” said Obama. “And this week, at the United Nations, I will continue to rally the world against this threat.” This video is embeddable: The White House via Facebook https://facebook/video.php?v=10152816513364238
