| Gen. Keane on Defeating ISIS: Obama Never Asked Military for a Plan to Get That Done | |
| 2016-11-22 | |
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... if the commander-in-chief asks for and implements its plan. Host Rachel Martin was interviewing Keane about his decision not to accept President-elect Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... ’s offer to serve as Defense secretary, but the report included questions about Trump’s remarks on the campaign trail that he knows more than the generals when it comes to defeating ISIS. "The military knows how to fight a war," Keane said. "And I told [Trump] - if you're going to do what you suggest - said you were going to do and ask for a campaign plan from the Pentagon for how to defeat ISIS, believe me, you'll get a comprehensive campaign plan with many options in it that this president has never asked for." Keane said that, in fact, Obama routinely did not take the advice given to him by the military or, if taken, "reduced" those recommendations. | |

| #4 Of course he doesn't take advice. He's the smartest man in any room and knows more about anything than anyone else. Why would he need advice? |

| #1 Champ doesn't need a Pentagon plan. He employs the Klingon targeted assassination of senior leaders plan. |
