Obama and the Brussels attack

Krauthammer Blasts Obama’s ‘Ideological Holiday Trip in Cuba While the World Burns’  . . . “ 'Obama gave the terror bombing 51 seconds of his speech today in Havana. I thought the whole story of his presidency and its foreign policy was seen in a split screen,” 
Obama honors Cuban revolutionary heroes. Dennis Rivera / AP. . . 
“ 'But Obama had to go, because its his legacy. This is settling the Cold War arguments of the academic left of Obama’s Columbia University Days, the people who worship the Cuban Revolution, the Sandinistas. Obama had his picture taken in front of a relief of Che Guevara, which sort of stated his world view of his adolescent days and now he does it as president.' ”


Giuliani, General Hayden RIP Obama – If he can’t figure out his strategy isn’t working on ISIS, we need someone else in that job!

Obama relaxes at baseball game in Cuba while Brussels burns  . . . "But even the horrific strike against Brussels would not deter the president from having a good time. He was just too busy making history to take time to acknowledge the fact that western civilization is under assault." . . .


IBD says Obama has checked out. If only it were true  . . . "Not to worry. This is the courageous — or clueless — leader who went golfing when ISIS beheaded American James Foley. The Nobel Peace Prize winner who took his family on a South American jaunt five years ago while launching the disastrous war that created today’s failed state of Libya.
"Who managed to attend not one, but two big-buck Vegas fundraisers before the bodies of the Benghazi Four were cold." . . . 
This president is cold, very cold.
Andrew C. McCarthy writes of the failure of our president and other national leaders to recognize Islam for what it is. He gives an honest look at radical Islam and a hopeful assessment of moderate (yes, moderate) Islamic interpretations. Apparently there some:
 Brussels and Willful Blindness  ". . . this is not a tragedy. It is a war crime targeting a civilian population in the course of an ongoing war. . . "
. . . "It was simply shocking this morning to watch split screens. On one, we saw President Obama spend fleeting seconds on a peremptory acknowledgement of the attacks before moving on to his long, celebratory speech about how he has put the Cold War to rest in Cuba by working with “President Castro.' ” . . . 

'A Void of U.S. Leadership': Gen. Flynn Says Our Anti-Terror Strategy Isn't Working  . . . "He said we need to stop apologizing like we're going after some religion or religious ideology, and deal with the problem in a more mature and comprehensive way.
" 'We have to quit kidding ourselves about what we're facing," Flynn said.
"He explained that the problem is that there is "a void of U.S. leadership" under the Obama administration, and our strategy in the Middle East is piecemeal and uncoordinated." . . .
" 'I think it's time for a new administration.' "

After Brussels Terrorist Attack, Watch Cruz And Trump Say What Obama Can’t   
CRUZ: This is not an isolated incident. This is not a lone wolf. This is a war with radical Islamic terrorism. ISIS declared jihad on Europe and on the United States of America. The first priority of the commander-in-chief should be keeping America safe. And it is long past time that we had a president who will acknowledge this evil, will call it by its name and utilize the full force and fury of the United States to defeat radical Islamic terrorism, to defeat ISIS. . . . 
 TRUMP: I would close up our borders to people until we figure out what is going on. The city is in fear. And we have to be smart in the United States. When people come in, I mean, we’re taking in people without real documentation. We don’t know where they’re coming from. We don’t know where they’re from, who they are. You look at them, look at it from any standpoint. They could be ISIS. They could be ISIS-related. And we just don’t learn, we don’t learn.
