honestly don't know what he's doing or trying to do. There seems to be no rational strategy involved. Not anything that makes sense to me. Let's hear your strategy, General Nodey.....million man invasion force on how many countries...

Inode, you said it yourself. It's all about "optics." From the moment Obama admitted he didn't have a strategy for ISIS to his boneheaded mistake of snubbing the Paris rally, it was obvious to me that *he did not want to deal with ISIS*. At all. This explains the whole "leading from his behind" strategy that liberals praise but isn't going to accomplish anything meaningful. Obama simply doesn't consider the war on terrorism to be a priority. Hence everything he is doing with regard to ISIS is reactionary. Try this, see what happens. OK, try a little more, see what happens. Apply more pressure, drop more bombs, send in a few thousand boots the ground, see what happens. Such a strategy worked for Clinton when he had to deal with Slobby Milosevic, but Clinton was incredibly lucky. The war on terrorism won't be as easy to deal with. Tenchusatsu
