Candidate Obama promised peace in our time. He pledged to “bring America’s longest war to a responsible end.” He lied saying:
“I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do.”
“I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank.”
Fighting continues. It rages out-of-control. Washington plans permanent occupation. Withdrawal is more fiction than fact.
Thousands of US troops will remain. They’ll do so indefinitely. It’s just a question of how many.
Obama ravaged Libya. Syria is his war. So is Iraq war III.
Permanent war is official US policy. Obama is the latest in a long line of US warrior presidents. He’s a war criminal multiple times over.
He’s waging war on humanity. He intends escalating things dangerously. He promised no US ground forces in Iraq.
He lied. Over 1,000 special forces were deployed. Hundreds more are coming. Brigades of US ground forces may follow.
Mission creep often follows initial forays. Another potential quagmire looms.
Joint Chiefs Chairman General Martin Dempsey said he’ll recommend deploying US combat troops if ISIS/ISIL/the Islamic State (IS) can’t be defeated other ways.
“My view at this point is that this coalition is the appropriate way forward,” he said. “I believe that will prove true.”
“But if it fails to be true, and if there are threats to the United States, then I, of course, would go back to the president and make a recommendation that may include the use of US military ground forces.”
