Ted, However, that was the same problem under Bush/Cheney..........lots of donations and recruits to al Qaeda... And look at what happened to Al Qaeda by the time Bush handed over the reigns to Obama. They were on the run, scattered, and unfocused. Even the Obama administration painted a similar picture of Al Qaeda on the run in the timeframe shortly before the strike on Obama bin Laden. Then after the strike, the Obama administration, eager to wind down the war on terror, continued to portray Al Qaeda as a toothless tiger: Obama calls Al-Qaida "shadow of former self" (Feb. 2013) It was America's strength and resolve that created the decline of Al Qaeda (although recent reports suggest a resurgence in Al Qaeda's strength). It will be the lack thereof that will allow ISIS to rise (and Al Qaeda to come back). And Obama's stupid "we don't have a strategy" speech will only help our enemies. Unless, of course, you think Obama's oh-so-nuanced "strategery" is actually discouraging our enemies and encouraging our allies to unite and act, LOL ... Tenchusatsu
