It’s hard to believe, but France is stepping up to the plate after the Paris attacks, vowing to take the fight directly to ISIS. To that end, French President Francois Hollande has ordered his forces to carry out strikes on the terrorists in their main stronghold of Raqqa in Syria.
Even more shockingly, the French socialist has called upon President Obama to “join our forces” in combat against the ISIS caliphate, a far cry from the impassioned refusal of the French to support the U.S. in the war in Iraq 10 years ago.
But now that he has an opportunity to lead a concerted, multilateral effort against the jihadists, Obama has completely rejected his offer to form an alliance to take down this infestation.

Indiscriminate bombing an area kills more more defenseless civilians than terrorists – there are better ways to target the terrorists
Lets call it like it is, President Obama has only one foreign policy decision that he can hang his hat on – getting the US out of Iraq. He tried to do the same in Afghanistan but reality stepped in with the uprising of ISIS or we would have left Afghanistan is the same shape as Iraq. If he joins with the French he has to admit that his decision to withdraw from Iraq was premature and then he has egg on his face. His current strategy of airstrikes to defeat ISIS is not and will not work. He has no other strategy becuase he does not want to be seen as starting his own war.
…”we are going to do whatever it takes”…
Obama, i guess nothing is a part of whatever he was talking about.
Hafta face it, POTUS is a p***y
France should invoke Article 5 of NATO and see if President Obama leaves NATO is his wake! Makes you wonder what he will do when they bring the fight to America as they surely plan to do? I wish I had confidence that he would “apply baseball bat firmly against knee cap” but more likely want to open some sort of negotiations. Maybe we should give them Washington DC with all of the politicians.
Do they realize that he is one of them.
Impeach that liberal Muslim loser
That is a mistake
He apparently wants them to take over the world.
Sorry to say, he’s a jerk!
