President Obama's speech to the nation in September 2014.

"But I want the American people to understand how this effort will be different from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It will not involve American combat troops fighting on foreign soil. This counter-terrorism campaign will be waged through a steady, relentless effort to take out ISIL wherever they exist using our air power and our support for partner forces on the ground. This strategy of taking out terrorists who threaten us, while supporting partners on the front lines, is one that we have successfully pursued in Yemen and Somalia for years."

Fast forward to today just four months later.

"Iran-backed Shia rebels seized a Yemeni presidential palace. The president and his entire cabinet tendered their resignations on Thursday, creating a vacuum that al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula is ready and eager to fill. ISIS is gaining its own Sunni foothold in the Muslim terror-breeding ground."

Read this quote which rings loud and clear "It would be bad enough if the current crisis were merely the result of incompetence and negligence. But Obama's disastrous Yemen policy reflects his radical leftwing administration's deep-rooted ideological sympathies for our enemies." This is also reflected in his deep rooted disdain for our longtime ally Israel.

Our nation is at war and losing the battle. We are lied to by the President, government agencies in charge and the media. What if anything can be done to get to the truth and protect America.
 
Fast forward to yesterday. White House Deputy Press Secretary at a news briefing stated.



Wednesday at the White House daily press briefing, deputy press secretary Eric Schultz refused to call the Taliban a terrorist group, saying instead, "The Taliban is an armed insurgency," several times when asked by ABC News chief White House correspondent Jonathan Karl.


"I don't think that the Taliban, uh - the Taliban is an armed insurgency," Schultz said. Political correctness is off the chart in an attempt not to offend or tell the truth.
