Since the graphic images and video of the terror group ISIS beheading American photojournalist James Foley came out, the language being used by government officials about ISIS has been taken to a new level, with statements like "They are an imminent threat to every interest we have, whether it's in Iraq or anywhere else," and "They are beyond just a terrorist group. They marry ideology, a sophistication of ... military prowess. They are tremendously well-funded. This is beyond anything we've seen.," from Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel to Pentagon reporters on Thursday.
Perhaps the most incendiary language came from General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, when talking about radicalized Europeans or Americans returning to their home countries after fighting in Iraq or Syria, which as was reported on Thursday, concerns US officials because they believe "some Americans have joined the Islamic State and, programmed to conduct suicide bombings," upon their return to the US.
Dempsey states "This is an organization that has an apocalyptic, end-of- days strategic vision and which will eventually have to be defeated." He continues "To your question, can they be defeated without addressing that part of their organization which resides in Syria? The answer is no. That will have to be addressed on both sides of what is essentially at this point a non-existent border."
And there ladies and gentlemen, we have come full circle as the US government campaigns to finish what they attempted and failed at so many months ago....... military action in Syria.
The ISIS Agenda is discussed in more detail with Dr. James David Manning in the video below.
