State Department Spokesidiot Marie Harf: We Cannot Kill Our Way Out of the IS Problem; We Have to Address The "Root Causes" And Give the IS Killers Jobs
Update: Job-Seeking IS Long-Term Unemployed Burn 45 People to Death in al-Baghdadi, Iraq
She molests the truth like it's a drunken sorority sister.
See the link for the video. This is Chris Matthews interviewing her, dumbfounded that she thinks it's all a laugh.
MATTHEWS: "If I were ISIS, I wouldn't be afraid right now. I would figure there’' no existential threat to these people. They can keep finding places where they can hold executions and putting the camera work together, getting their props ready and killing people for show and nothing we do right now seems to be directed at stopping this."Bubbles Babblemouth didn't complete her thought, such as it was. How about, "Whether it's intense religious devotion to an apocalyptic version of 7th-century Islam?" And so while Marie was putting together photo-collages of CUTE BOYS!!!, this happened. The BBC:
HARF: "I think there is few stages here. Right now what we are doing is trying to take their leaders and their fighters off the battlefield in Iraq and in Syria. That’s really where they--" MATTHEWS: "Are we killing enough of them?" HARF: "We're killing a lot of them and we’re gonna keep killing more of them, so are the Egyptians, so are the Jordanians, they are in this fight with us. But we cannot win this war by killing them. We cannot kill our way out of this war. We need in the longer term, medium and longer term, to go after the root causes that leads to join these groups whether it's lack of opportunity for jobs, whether it's--"
Jihadist militants from Islamic State (IS) have burned to death 45 people in the western Iraqi town of al-Baghdadi, the local police chief says. Exactly who these people were and why they were killed is not clear, but Col Qasim al-Obeidi said he believed some were members of the security forces. IS fighters captured much of the town, near Ain al-Asad air base, last week.That's right where our troops are Sheltered in Place. It is believed the job-seeking jihadis were on line hoping to get hired as greeters at Target when one among them said "Ah fuck this, let's start burning families to death," to the general approval of the queue.
Col Obeidi said a compound that houses the families of security personnel and local officials was now under attack. He pleaded for help from the government and the international community. The fighting and poor communications in the area make it difficult to confirm such reports.They're trying to draw us out, I think. And we're so weakly positioned there we can't go out, because they'll massacre our troops to a man. Well-played, Obama. Very well played.

I don't think Obama has any clue how to handle international issues. These are things that cannot be taxed or have tax money thrown at them. Take away those choices and he's clueless. Better just ignore them and maybe the unemployed murderers will just go away.

This is what happens in a feminized society. The refusal to do what needs to be done to secure our freedom from violent aggression only results in constant attacks from an emboldened enemy.
This "war" isn't waged against the enemy, it's waged against the innocent population. This is why we're treated as we are on our own soil in our own airports. These effetes will reduce our freedom while allowing known terrorists to roam freely (see Brothers, Tspeedbump), then, after an attack, they'll defend our enemies.
This is exactly backwards. #WASTF.

============
At one time Barry's mentor proposed killing upwards of 50 million United States citizens to win his "war."
So, the leftists don't have a problem killing people--it's just that they prefer killing unarmed civilians. It's been thus in every government they've controlled.

Hey, no shit! Since the Democrats have delivered on their oft-repeated promise that Obaaamacare would create 500,000 jobs a month, we've got shitloads of jobs to spare.
I mean, look at all those Americans working two, sometimes three jobs--those are jobs that could be going to ISIS.

Obama does not understand and never did understand that ending the war means winning the war, not just bringing the troops home. Smaller coalition partners (Australia, etc.) might be able to make a withdrawal decision based on having entered on a limited premise and with limited resources, but the big dog in the yard doesn't get to go home until all the foxes are running or dead.

There isa political reason for all of this. Under no circumstances can US ground troops be engaged in large-scale action anywhere for any reason or provocation between now and December 2016.
President Obama is worried about his legacy and his base. He is determined not be historically evaluated as awar president and he is also equally determined to prevent a party-rupturing schism over the deployment of American troops overseas. The far-Left base of the Democratic Party would have a conniption if American troops are still fighting in Iraq in 2016, endangering Hillary's chances of winning the general election and possiblyundoing the 'transformational' project started in 2008.

There's a US-led coalition against ISIS. It's a coalition, so it's not unilateral. It's US-led, so the US is leading it. Furthermore, this coalition is against ISIS, so the inherent reason for being of this ad-hoc alliance is something adversarial in nature.

I mean a number.
Say those Marines get captured and killed (God forbid). Would that be enough?
IDK. I think this media would still protect him and there are not enough Republicans with military backgrounds to defend America.
Look at 9/11. This media lied us out of our God-given and legitimate response of full, all-out war; defending instead a per-Medieval ideology. Honing and refining their apologies over the last 14 years.
And that was 3,000+ of us killed in cold blood.
So, how many dead Americans will it take?

Certainly they'll fight until they are unable to fight- and for many of them that means until death- but some of them will be unable to fight *before* they're dead, and will be captured (if things go completely pear-shaped).
In reality, if the President does not send in major support fairly quickly, the Marines will be overrun and some number of them (however small) will be captured.

3 BDE, 82nd Airborne. My old unit. I was initiallysomewhat puzzled by their deployment since training indigenous troops is more of a Special Forces deal, but I guess the Pentagon sent a full combat infantry brigade because it is capable of conducting the training mission and strong enough to discourage enemy attempts to annhilate it, which would be the casewith aconglomeration of SF teams.

There is no number of dead Americans which will rouse us to a righteous crusade. Not unless - unless those dead Americans include a hefty slice of MFM and government talking heads whose first instinct is to run away, evade and distort the truth. If the apologists are among the living, even the obliteration of a major city will be written off as "not true Islam."

They have--if you look closely--been pushing every avenue of soft, silly "grounds for impeachment" they can. Knowing they can easily beat those back with their comrades in the media.
They are on a dangerous path--they have to have Obama as "the hero who beat back the forces of evil." But, they need a domestic enemy.
But, with the world burning, it's utter humiliation that becomes ever and ever more the likely outcome.

Interesting question.
The reason I ask is this -- I presume that people intend the natural and predictable consequences of their actions.
That philosophy leads me to adopt conclusions that a lot of people find radical. But from my perspective, I find that a lot of people have some seriously perverse intentions.
It's unthinkable to most people to believe that anyone would want US troops to be captured and torture-murdered. But if we accept that such a desire is possible, then the question becomes -- Why? How would such a person benefit?
I'm not sure what the answer is, but I think it's worth asking.

Well-played, Obama. Very well played.
Ace,
I'm pretty sure you know this is Obama's overall plan -
ie. make the WoT painful for us by deploying our troops in such a way and with such an deadly (for us) set of ROE-
that we wind up with large amounts of our brave young men and women killed and/or crippled.
His plan is simply to kill as few jihadis as he can to "teach us" that war is not the answer.
With six months of hard bombing and assassination of financiers of these clowns in Saudi Arabia, The Emirates, and Qatar (with possibly some side action directed Pakistan's and Iran's way),
this would be over.
But, then the American public would not have "learned it's lesson".

Writing "do this, do that" is of course a total waste of time as Obama will never do any of "this" nor will he do "that".
Congress has abdicated its role to the point that federal judges have to try to slow Obama's march to misery on the domestic front while he runs wild on the foreign front.
From domestic policy to foreign, this administration is a horror to watch in action, and the blood on its hands grows by the day.
And there's not a damn thing we can do about it. Millions of Americans are not going to take to the streets until ISIS comes here to continue its work.
All Obama has to do is keep ISIS from operating at will in the USA and he can continue to condone the building of the caliphate elsewhere.
I doubt that we have ever experienced such an embarrassing period in our history.

People join ISIS for the ecstasy of pure Islam, same as all the other pure utopian fantasies of the past. They are Jim Jones writ large and Arabic. They are sick and tired of jobs and worldly humiliation and failure.

When I was in the 82nd under Reagan,during the Cold War, the 82nd Airborne Division had a strategy for dealing with the numerous Soviet armor brigades that would inevitably converge at whatever point behind the lines we were causing trouble.
The acronym for this light infantry versus heavy armor strategy was called "DIP". "DIP" stands for Die In Place.
You get the idea. And I simply cannot believe all of ISIS combined could defeat the 82nd. 20,000 paratroopers against 50,000 devil-worshiping, child-crucifyingassholes? It would be a slaughter, all right. I'd buy tickets.

It's true. Harf, like her boss Obama, thinks that if we just give the Muslims more money and education, and maybe a few more apologies for western imperialism (to raise their self esteem!), then they'll start to think like us and realize that all this religious stuff is just a bunch of hooey.
Obama and Harf and the other idiots around them are so blinded by their own ethnocentrism that they just can't understand that what motivates jihadis is not a lack of money or job opportunities, or low self esteem, but a sincerely-held religious belief that it is their duty to subjugate and slaughter non-believers.
Sadly, millions of American voters share their delusions, which is how Obama -- a blatant Muslim appeaser -- was elected president a mere 7 years after 9/11.

========
Gotham last night.
Fish has her fellow prisoners beat one of their own to death.
"Some of you will make it out of here. Note, I said _some_."
So, the point is: Their calculated death is to extract something from someone in power.
Who has what the Dems want that the death of those Marines would strengthen their position?
Now, remember: The Dems only care about domestic politics.
They want war powers from the Republicans--they want the Republicans to give them the cover; the win-win.
They need the "strong on terrorists" for Hillary. But they also need "you voted for it too" if it goes south and they've got Warren in the wings, safely having voted against it.

Me too. They seem to think mindless repetition of some trite, meaningless phrase somehow "empowers" them. Funny as hell unless you're stuck relying on them for something (like a coherent foreign policy).

Obviously, the reason that ISIS is fighting is ultimately economic, with some politics involved. This administration, of course, has the perfect solution:
1. Economic: Offer ISIS huge sums of money (financial aid), in exchange for a cease fire. Also, host "talks" aimed at understanding the needs of ISIS, also, the rights and privileges to self-determination as an Islamic State. In exchange, of course, for a promise to not attack westerns (at least right now).
2. Political: Throw Israel under the bus, hard. This is, of course, a precondition to talks regarding #1.
If you don't understand the wisdom of this solution, of course, it is because you don't see the big picture.

Look at the UK. They allow all those aholes into their country, give them welfare and huge flats/houses for their families and wives, free education and healthcare and they still plot against them. And they will never deport them or cut their benefits.

Err, no, that's not how it works. These poor guys will be slaughtered or worse. Get a lot more guns over there, or get those Marines the fuck out of there. Loosened ROEs does not make up for being vastly outnumbered.

Except that the way you win a war is to kill more of your enemy than they kill of you, thus eliminating them or making them surrender

Except that the way you melt steel is with fire
"Global warming is causing all this cold weather"
Enuff said
Why is it that our so call intellectual betters say so much shit that is demonstrably incorrect?

She's technically correct. You don't win wars by killing the enemy.
You win wars by convincing the enemy that they WILL be killed if they don't surrender.
Of course, the task of convincing the enemy of their imminent and inevitable demise is frequently accomplished by killing a substantial number of the enemy, but that's really just a means to the end.

I guess it takes more than mass executions of Coptic Christians to get Baroque off the golf course. At least the Pope is getting excited about the issue vs global warming.
I am in the midst of a very bad time of finding a new house in another state after living in a great one for 20 yrs. We canceled a bid because, uh, dealing with nutters. An attorney nutter who wanted to live, rent free and without a lease, for a few days. Right. Just like the nutter family in a muliti-million dollar house in California (UK Daily Mail). The moving van would show up and they would not move. I am sorry to rant, but have not been this weepy-wimp since, oh, 1987 after the flu and taking care of toddlers.
If there is a call for aging super models, currently pissed off and depressed and waiting for Rapture, to go join forces against ISIS, well, I am your woman.

we cannot win this war by killing them
I bring you this ancient Sith wisdom: Wipe them out. All of them.
You start systematically annihilating them, their recruiting drives will...falter. And the disaffected utes of Europe, the ME and other places will suddenly have better things to do than to die quickly and painfully.

Yes, a state can in fact win wars by killing the enemy. Carthage comes immediately to mind. I'm sure there are others. Lots of others.

Like an earlier poster said, loosened RoE would not help when it comes to sheer numbers (and blockage of MSRs leading to the FOB for resupply).
300 Marines in a training role, with little heavy weaponry...
Clusterfuck comes to mind.

"The big problem is that this administration sees everything through the prism of Western civilization." On the contrary, the real problem is that they see everything through the prism of the comic-book version of Western Civilization that they were taught in college. I would be stunned to learn that *anybody* in this administration had ever read Thucydides. Or Herodotus. Or Josephus. Or Grant's "Personal Memoirs". Or the Federalist. Or ... Christ, or *anything* from the canon of our nation and civilization!
Of course, why read those difficult old books when Howard Zinn explains it all for you?

1. Deal with corruption/evil in leadership
2. Deal with Problems in the system creating poverty/brokeness
3. deal with cultural and class conflicts.
You have to deal with the leadership first before you can deal with the problems, because the leadership will simply undo what you are trying to fix. Otherwise you'll be like a truck stuck in the mud, exerting all your energy and getting nowhere. But my guess is that they already know that.

The Jihadis say one thing and the Marxist mind literally can't accept it could be true, because everyone knows if people have jobs they're happy and peaceful. People like Obama go to church, but they don't actually believe any of that God talk, so they assume people they've never met on the other side of the world are the same way.
