We have a new kind of appeasement in the 21st Century, and it’s the Obama/Jarrett doctrine ofdisengaging from the international evils plaguing our nation and allies. Maybe they think if we ignore it, it’ll go away. ISIS extremists have declared war on the United States and will kill Americans, or anyone else, whenever they have the opportunity. And they proved it again in the revolting and globally seen beheading of an American photojournalist.
Of course the Obama/Jarrett Administration are trying to cover themselves by disclosing that special operators launched an ultimately unsuccessful rescue earlier this summer (James Foley and the other hostages had been moved prior to the raid). So quickly acknowledging a covert action to mask their greater inaction is the answer? Maybe keeping a reinforced brigade in country as a force multiplier for the Iraqis was just too pragmatic for their “politics first” ideology.
This is not an incident of a failed mission, but a failed policy resembling appeasement. Yes, the world is appalled Mr. President, but also because you failed to maintain a sufficient deterrent in the region. Hillary Clinton should have stood by her statements and NOT hugged it out. ISIS is a virulent cancer which is allowed to grow by failing to acknowledge obvious reality, and only now do we deploy any force in response to a crisis. This murder, and the entire situation preceding it could have been prevented.
Having been an embedded journalist in hostile regions, Foley’s gruesome murder strikes a different kind of chord in my soul. Fortunately I was protected by the world’s greatest fighting force, and I’m totally saddened for Foley and his family.
