Google's definition of the word Terrorism.

ter·ror·ism
ˈterəˌrizəm/
noun
noun: terrorism
  1. the use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.

So who are the real terrorists? Taking the Indian Wars and Reservation system global. To use the CIA term Blowback, when does it come to "Blowback" onto ourselves?

i cried 2x watching this movie 10 years ago. not a bad commentary on american forgien policy, except it gets wrong the fact that the american government intentions are probably 99% bad.

Morelock you do realize this slug is a convicted FELON..Right????But then again republicans have morphed into a one-note chorus of whiners incapable of conjuring up any sophisticated path of causality for domestic and world affairs. Repeating variations of "it's Obama's fault" like brain damaged parrots doesn't make for either a convincing argument or a rational explanation to reel in moderates. I sometimes feel as if they are trying to convince themselves of their own unfounded simplistic rhetoric............

Did or did not Odumbo say "Isis is contained" ???? That is the point, not who that booger head is, but you deflect and don't address the statement made by Odumbo......typical left BS.

President Obama certainly did say that we have contained ISIL.

Here is the exact exchange, and what he said then bears out as true today, they have been contained geographically and losing territory.

Stephanopoulos: "And that's the strategy you've been following. But ISIS is gaining strength, aren't they?"


Obama: "Well, no, I don't think they're gaining strength. What is true is that from the start, our goal has been first to contain, and we have contained them. They have not gained ground in Iraq. And in Syria they'll come in, they'll leave. But you don't see this systematic march by ISIL across the terrain. What we have not yet been able to do is to completely decapitate their command and control structures. We've made some progress in trying to reduce the flow of foreign fighters."


Did you take it to mean that 'Odumbo' can now contain an ideology? That would be pretty odumbo of you ;)

Politifact for those who fall for librul media lies:

H.R. 158, Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015, introduced by Rep. Candice Miller (R-MI), approved by the House on December 8, 2015 and was included in H.R. 2029, Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016; approved by the Senate on December 18, 2015; signed into law on December 18, 2015 (P.L. 114-113).

A journalist from London, Madrid, Brussels or Paris who travelled to Syria to report the conflict is classified as a terrorist risk under the law. So is a professor who travels to Iran to speak at a conference, and the countless humanitarian aid workers, doctors and lawyers who work in Syria, Iraq or the Sudan to provide emergency aid and schooling to victims of terrorism.
HR 158 does have exemptions. But they are only for people who visited one of the four countries deemed to pose a terrorist risk on behalf of the government or the military.
