The Obama regime's talk about success against the Islamo-nazi's all smoke and mirrors.

Krauthammer’s Take: ‘Al-Qaeda Probably Stronger than It’s Ever Been’

Last week the vice president dismissed critics of American policy in the Middle East, those who were saying the Islamic State was on the rise and Iraq was falling to sectarian violence. Those critics look quite reasonable just a few days later, says Charles Krauthammer. “The administration is quickly developing a huge problem of credibility,” Krauthammer said on Thursday’s Special Report. “When the vice president says that, and then within seven days ISIS is at the gates of Ramadi [in Iraq] — it has it surrounded, as you said, the civilians are fleeing — [and] they are also attacking Baiji, which is a very strategic point, because it is a producer of oil, you’ve got to ask yourself: What exactly is the vice president talking about?”​ “On the other hand, you’ve heard that we are succeeding, or at least we’re holding the line somewhat, in Yemen. And remember, Obama had said al-Qaeda is decimated, it’s on the run, we heard that for years. Well, al-Qaeda today captured a major port — airport, seaport, and oil terminal in Yemen. It is now stronger than it probably has ever been,” said Krauthammer, “and it is intent on attacking the United States.” He noted, finally, “Our third adversary in the region — you’ve got ISIL, you have got of course al-Qaeda, and there’s Iran. Iran is on the march, Iran is on the move, and that’s why the Saudis are complaining about the deals that we’re making with Iran while ignoring their aggression on the ground all around them.”
