Obama: ISIS Wouldn't Be a Problem If Media Didn't Report On It
"There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS." November 23, 2015
Obama always claims he found out about scandals from the "news". He only ramps up the fight against ISIS, when the media's reporting makes it obvious that the group is still a problem. So he has an obvious solution.
If the media would just stop covering ISIS, it wouldn't be a problem.
“The media needs to help in this,” he said, admitting that it has been a “difficult week,” with the threat posed by ISIS becoming a primary focus in the media.
“One of the things that has to happen is how we report on this has to maintain perspective, and not empower in any way these terrorist organizations or elevate them in ways that make it easier for them to recruit or make them stronger,” he said.
We shouldn't "focus" on ISIS. Instead let's call them a JV team and let them take over Iraq. That worked for Obama last time.
But then the media reports on Yazidi genocide and suddenly Obama looks stupid and has to pretend to bomb ISIS. Or ISIS massacres a whole bunch of people in Paris and then Americans start to be "afraid" and then Obama has to pretend to bomb ISIS some more.
Can't we all just pretend to agree that ISIS doesn't exist?
That means no reporting on ISIS. If you are about to be killed by ISIS, please don't call the police. That will just perpetuate the cycle of violence since we all know fighting terrorists, just creates more terrorists. And if we all commit to pretending ISIS doesn't exist, it'll instantly be defeated because its real motivation is to get Americans to hate Muslims. At least that's what the media says.
So boys and girls, close your eyes and repeat after me, "There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS, There's no ISIS."
But there's just one problem with Obama's plan. If the media stops reporting on ISIS and it carries out a terrorist attack in America, how will Obama ever find out it took place?
Certainly not f rom the intelligence analysts.
Analysts at U.S. Central Command were pressured to ease off negative assessments about the Islamic State threat and were even told in an email to “cut it out,” Fox News has learned – as an investigation expands into whether intelligence reports were altered to present a more positive picture.
Separately, a former Pentagon official told Fox News there apparently was an attempt to destroy the communications. The Pentagon official said the email warnings were "not well received" by the analysts.
It's like these intelligence analysts love ISIS or something. Don't they know that ISIS wants us to pay attention to it and bomb it? The only way we'll ever win is to keep our heads in the sand until they get chopped off by the enemy that doesn't exist.
