Someone needs to tell Obama to pull out of Syria. The King has proclaimed, "This Isn't America's Fight".

'This isn't America's fight': Rivals pounce on Hillary's claim that US cannot take lead role in defeating ISIS and her refusal to denounce 'radical Islam'

Too bad Democrats will nominate her anyway to be Commander in Chief.

Clinton: "20:08:43:00 Well, John I think that– we have to look at ISIS as the leading threat of an international terror network. It cannot be contained, it must be defeated. There is no question in my mind that if we summon our resources, both our leadership resources and all of the tools at our disposal, not just military force which should be used as a last resort, but our diplomacy, our development aid, law enforcement, sharing of intelligence in a much more– open and cooperative way– that we can bring people together.

Clinton: "20:09:18:00 But it cannot be an American fight. And I think what the president has consistently said– which I agree with– is that we will support those who take the fight to ISIS. That is why we have troops in Iraq that are helping to train and build back up the Iraqi military, why we have special operators in Syria working with the Kurds and Arabs so that we can be supportive. But this cannot be an American fight, although American leadership is essential."

Let's see. ISIS attacks America. Declares War on America. Yet she says this isn't an American Fight.

Nonsense.

This kind of thinking is why ISIS hasn't been defeated.

They clearly claimed responsibility for the attempt at the mass shooting in Garland Texas. and the Thugs had claimed allegence to ISIL before they got sent to spend time with Allah.

Fortunately a hand gun dispatched those terrorists in short order.

It's clearly America's fight. That could have been a massive tragedy had it not been stopped by those brave men.

And King Hillary acts like this isn't America's fight. Ridiculous.

I think that there is some confusion as to what Hillary meant when she said during the debate that, "Isis is not an American fight." What I thought she meant was it that America would not be the go to, ultimate our responsibility, to ensure the irradiation of ISIS. She does not think Isis can be contained, but that it has to go. I think we have been there before. Look at our debt if you are still confused and how much our commitment to the war on terror has cost the US. Wars cost money. Seems the ones that want it most, are the ones that complain 24/7 about the debt. It is all back to the "I want my cake and I want to eat it too." It is not possible.

I'm actually on Hillary's side. Since we have ISIS training camps in the US and one sitting just outside the border and only God, truly only God, knows how many we have ready to attack us from within, I don't see how going and bombing them overseas is going to be a big win especially with our military forces having been reduced to make us more vulnerable.

Before we start this crap, we need flush out the camps here and any illegal ISIS in the country and build our military.

Europe has armies, right?

When America is attacked, then it becomes America's fight. Doesn't matter what other countries decide to do.

As far as wasted money is concerned, chalk that up to incompetance by the Obama administration. They hold the same viewpoint as Hillary. The results speak for themselves.

I think Isis needs to be eliminated, but it is the world's fight, not just American one.

I think all the allies need to join America, especially Saudi Arabia and all these other filthy rich Muslim countries. The only boots on the ground should be the Muslims, it is their fight. Now, you see Muslim countries (many of them at least) don't even take refugees. what's up with that?

Everybody needs to fight.

And if they don't, whose war is it then?

America is attacked, it's America's problem to fix.

Hillary is doing what the Clinton's always do. Weasel wording so she can later say she didn't "mean it". Doesn't stand for anything, won't take responsibility for anything. Very bad characteristics for a person trying to be President.
