How many troops do you think it would take? How long would they need to stay? How many countries would we have to occupy to keep the terrorists from slipping between borders? You do realize that a large number of the troops in Iraq where reserves right. I hardly think they were 24/7 types. I don't think there's a general consensus even at the pentagon. I've heard differing estimates between 10k and 200k. A few months, to indefinitely. Let's face it, it's a quagmire. No simple solution.
then if that's your tactic then throw in the white flag and quit....give our enemies all the territories they want and tell the world that the best military in the world is just for show, its all bark and no bite.
how is Obama's policy of NO ground troops working?
I missed the live speech. How much did he say about "radical Islam", "Islamic terrorism", or the atrocities committed in the name of Islam worldwide?
You didn't miss much. Same old, "co-worker violence, guns are bad, ban semi autos, defends Islamists, lecture. Oh, and , don't say anything offensive about Mulims or you will be prosecuted. Same old bla bla bla.

You're not addressing the questions, or the problem. Without a plan, we'll get the same results as we have in this past decade.

<Compares civilian and military casualties in Afghanistan/Iraq to Syria>
I don't think Obama wanted to give this talk. As usual he appeared to be above it all and only reiterating the same talking points only modified to match the circumstances.
Not since Jimmy Carter has a president been so out of touch with the mood of the country.
I agree. I think that once the FBI stated the California Attack was a "Terrorist Attack" that he felt forced into doing something (scared Democrats were also pushing for him to speak) - Obama has spent YEARS claiming "no Terrorist Attacks on his watch. He was forced into speaking, clear he didn't want to be there.
TeamObama is totally tone deaf - he is desperately attempting to keep things contained as much as possible until he can escape office. Odds are against him - a Paris Style attack is headed our way.
Maybe the FBI can trace the Money Trail in time to stop it - the Christmas Party attack was almost a Dry Run. It's pretty clear that they had something bigger planned.
No they can't. Guy opens fire with an AK in the back of a full room. You are armed but sitting in front with 50 people between you. Not only are you outgunned but have to avoid dozens of panicking people. Good luck. Guns protect you from a home invasion, not a mass shooting.
No, you don't get it. He wants everyone in the entire room to be armed.
2. You really think that 3500 Troops (that we know of) are not wearing "boots"?
.
A new Federal Order went out tonight that all of the military will be issued Crocs instead of boots in order to keep obuma's promises.
