The Turkish border is an open gateway for Islamic State (ISIS) fighters to pour through in order to continue growing the numbers of the Islamic terror organization in Syria and Iran.
Up to now, Obama has been dismissive of ISIS, calling them a JV team and allowing only occasional bombing raids against them in order to provide the pretense that he is anxiously engaged in stamping out this world threat.
Many believe that Obama is covertly rooting for and propping up ISIS as a way to depose Bashar al Assad, leader of Syria, rather than to become more involved militarily in that effort.
But with the suicide bombings and murders carried out by ISIS suicide bombers a couple of weeks ago, coupled with the embarrassing actions of Russia that showed a commitment to destroy ISIS and the military wherewithal to do just that, Obama is finally waking up to the fact that his narrative is becoming irrelevant regarding the terrorist organization.
Now he is taking action, and by that I mean that he is talking tough, which is about as committed as he gets in defending the U.S. citizenry.
Obama takes action, page 2
He can’t run America right….alot of nerve to tell another country what to do!
Hahahaha LMFAO! You arrogant POS going to foreign nation and demand they do something that you refuse to do in your own country.
I guess we dont need public aid then.because our economy is good.the people that are on public aid are the ones that will have to share the limited resources that they have.i have a problem with taking refugees that are going to conflict with our culture.granted there are good people there but are they willing to adjust to our culture?or to we adjust to theirs.

Ernie John Williamson record job creation. Weird record low on workforce participation. Can’t see how we are near full employment
We will always need some public aid. Full employment in the U.S. is between 4 or 5 percent. Fed Reserve doesn’t want it lower than that for fears of inflation. As for our culture, I thought our culture was one that tolerated diversity. Has that changed.? We have heard the same arguments when the Chinese came to build our railways, when the Irish came and worked in our factories, when the Mexicans came to work in our fields and when the Vietnamese came after the war.,
Unemployment is only part of the equation. It only counts that are still o. Unemployment. It doesn’t count those that have given up also those underemployed. With record people not on unemployment the welfare numbers are skyrocketing
Earl Green it is not me saying we are near full employment it is the Federal Reserve. That is why it wants to raise interest rates. As for workforce participation, it is starting to come down. But it will never return to what it was because of demographics: the Baby Boomers are retiring. We are retiring faster than we are getting new workers. And that is one reason for immigration. One other point: I haven’t seen the latest figures, but a month ago there were a record number of job openings. The real economic problem we face is matching skill levels to job openings. That will require education. Of the 11.8 million jobs created after the recession, 11.3 million went to people with some college education.
By closing turkish boarders, disallows Isis access into Europe and eventually into America. There is no other way to enter Europe. The correct decision
Earl Green by the way it is nice to have an exchange of ideas on the Internet without name-calling. That applies to Rich Nietmoka also. Gives me hope.
