The Turkish border is an open gateway for Islamic State (ISIS) fighters to pour through in order to continue growing the numbers of the Islamic terror organization in Syria and Iran.
Up to now, Obama has been dismissive of ISIS, calling them a JV team and allowing only occasional bombing raids against them in order to provide the pretense that he is anxiously engaged in stamping out this world threat.
Many believe that Obama is covertly rooting for and propping up ISIS as a way to depose Bashar al Assad, leader of Syria, rather than to become more involved militarily in that effort.
But with the suicide bombings and murders carried out by ISIS suicide bombers a couple of weeks ago, coupled with the embarrassing actions of Russia that showed a commitment to destroy ISIS and the military wherewithal to do just that, Obama is finally waking up to the fact that his narrative is becoming irrelevant regarding the terrorist organization.
Now he is taking action, and by that I mean that he is talking tough, which is about as committed as he gets in defending the U.S. citizenry.

A novel idea. Say dumbshit, how about closing our border?
Louis A Morales Thank you for a dose of reality, Steve,
There is zero evidence that he is Muslim.
Obama does not tell sovereign countries what to do. This string began with a lie.
Yep!! Them Mexicans are the equal to ISIS….No doubt about that..
Ernie…..don’t confuse the issues with facts….you are dealing with Pubs you know,,
This my friends is known in military gargon a SNAFU..Tipical for an Obama administration who pulked all our troops out and has a policy no boots on the ground..Bet Turkey could stand for some boots now..This administration is running around with it zipper down..No strategy, no plan, no defense, no cooperation, no hope to fix anything until Trump is in Office.
I don’t think so, he’s turning this country upside down, racial divide, 20 Trillion in debt, lack of foreign policy, and his anti law enforcement attitude. The man is a smooth talker, but he’s failed to act on anything.
Bryan, Obama’s election only magnified the racial divide in this country, he didnt start it, debt is an issue but this issue transcends all administration, republucans never worried about debt until debt was required to clean up the mess when this man inherited this country; anti-law I dont think so, maybe he sensitive to some differrences in community police action in minority neughborhood compared to others which I’m sure growing up in a mixed family contrased with his Chicago roots he seen both sides of the interaction of law en-forcement to at time skew his judgement and opinion……… nonetheless all things considered he’s done great!
