That didn't take long. President Obama basically ignores the ISIS terror attack in Brussels, and then downplays it yesterday. Today, he tells the world that his strategy is working and won't be changed. Brussels must be just another victory for the Obama strategy. After that muddled and dishonest BS from Obama, the usual happened next. Obama's media allies trotted out so called "experts" to agree with the president's assessment of the situation.
I just read an article on Yahoo News supporting Obama's views based upon statements by an "expert" who turns out to be the press officer at the Council on Foreign Relations who once wrote an article called "What ISIS really wants". Nothing like having one media guy be an "expert" for other reporters.
Before we go further, it's worth emulating Obama in one aspect. We need to point out that Yahoo News has nothing to do with either yahoos or news. News is usually both true and non-partisan. Yahoo News has perverted journalism and converted a practice of reporting "just the facts" into making the news into whatever supports their political agenda. Yahoos are loud and brash people, in other words a yahoo is a boor. The folks at Yahoo news try to be very refined in their conduct. They look down their noses at the American people and think that the people can be fooled by the biased nonsense that Yahoo News pumps out into the internet.
But let's get back to this "expert". According to Yahoo News, its expert "says that the campaign against ISIS is going far better than could have reasonably been expected a year ago." Right! When Obama told us more than a year ago that his goal was to destroy ISIS, no one reasonably expected that the strongest military in the world and all its allies would find itself 20 months later with the terrorists still in control of an area in Iraq and Syria about the size of Indiana. No one thought that ISIS would have grown from a presence in just Iraq and Syria to a point where today ISIS is in nine different countries including very large areas of Libya (thanks Hillary), Egypt, Afghanistan, Yemen and Pakistan. No one thought that ISIS would be regularly conducting terrorist attacks around the world in places like Paris, Brussels, Ankara and elsewhere. It's just be a wonderful success for the USA.
Okay, this so called expert is an idiot. But when Yahoo News writes about his views, it doesn't tell the readers that the guy is just a shill for Obama and that his views are idiotic. No, the Obama media team at Yahoo News discusses this nonsense as if it merits some actual attention.
