Will we never learn from history????

Back Back in 2011 (three years ago for those without a calendar) then adviser to President Obama said regarding al Qaeda, et al (ISIS) :

“I’m not talking about al Qaeda’s grandiose vision of global domination through a violent Islamic caliphate. That vision is absurd, and we are not going to organize our counter terrorism policies against a feckless delusion that is never going to happen. We are not going to elevate these thugs and their murderous aspirations into something larger than they are.”

If you think that it is scary to have a senior security adviser to the POTUS  stating these words...... here is even more reason to be plumb askeeered!   He is now  Director of the Counter Intelligence Agency (CIA)   !!!!!!

I seem to recall the same thing being said about those 'thugs and bullies' that followed Adolph Hitler in his attempt to start the 1000 year Reich!!        

Like I said,,,,,, will we never learn?  Last I heard -- that "junior varsity' the BO-man referred to now numbers in the tens of thousands and occupies much of the Middle East!

Note - copy and paste any part of that quoted comment above and paste it in your search engine --- you'll find a dozen links......
