Time for an Action Plan. |
With September 11th coming up as it does every year, One day before the thirteenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks . I not trying to be paranoid , but there could be things at work here? *** King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has recently warned that the West will be the next target of the jihadists sweeping through Syria and Iraq, unless there is "rapid" action. If it's not all connected then? Earlier this month, the Saudi country’s top cleric described the Islamic State group and Al Qaeda as Islam’s No. 1 enemy and said that Muslims have been their first victims. State-backed Saudi clerics who once openly called on citizens to fight in Syria can now face steep punishment and the kingdom has threatened to imprison its citizens who fight in Syria and Iraq. Yes, it could be fear mongering. *** Sure enough could the Saudi king be knowing more of a "possible terrorist attack " ? President Obama now has to address the nation on how he will combat the threat posed by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria Wednesday evening at 9 p.m. ET,.Obama will Outline a plan that includes continued U.S. air strikes, counter-terrorism actions, aid from other nations, and military training and assistance to moderates in Iraq and Syria, according to aides and a White House statement issued after the meeting. It's all at politics and the polls with Obama. Why should the American public be sold on a war plan? They shouldn't even know the war plan because that means the enemy does too.The speech will attempt to redress criticism that he has been slow to respond to the militant group's seizure of a haven in Syria and Iraq, amid fears fighters armed with Western passports could train their sights on the US homeland.Obama met the bipartisan leadership of the House and Senate in the Oval Office to discuss his plans, which officials say will involve a broad international coalition and efforts to choke off IS funding and the flow of foreign fighters to the group, as well as military action.This should be interesting as he's never actually tried to do a bipartisan attempt at building a coalition in Congress. Think about it , here's a President that after 6 years has never tried for a real bipartisan push so this should be interesting.
NOTES AND COMMENTS:
*** the Saudi King warned against IS terrorism attacks against the US. How does he know, is he in bed with those folks? And what are the Saudis, our allies(?), going to do? How much money is the royal family supplying the IS organization, like they did with Osama Bin Laden? I sincerely hope that IS sees his warning and turns on the Saudis for once. Anyone else notice that they are the only country in the area that isn't being threatened, and never has been. Must be nice to have all that oil money and not have to use it to defend your country in such a volatile region.
