Europe
Obama: 'These Kind of Attacks Can Happen Anywhere in the World'
2015-01-08
[CNSNEWS] In a stupid statement made in the Oval Office this afternoon, President Barack Obama
If you like your coverage you can keep it...
said the type of attack that turbans carried out today at a satirical publication's Gay Paree office can happen anywhere in the world.
But they specifically happened in Paris, in the offices of Charlie Hebdo.
In listing potential locales for such attacks, however, the president mentioned the threat to "Americans living in Europe and in the Middle East and other parts of the world" but did not specifically mention the United States.
Even more specifically, they were carried out by the usual murderous Moslems. Nobody even paused to wonder if they were rampaging Buddhists or vicious Rosicrucians.
"I think it's going to be important for us to make sure that we recognize these kinds of attacks can happen anywhere in the world," Obama said. "And one of the things I'll be discussing with Secretary [of State John] Kerry today is to make sure that we remain vigilant not just with respect to Americans living in Gay Paree, but Americans living in Europe and in the Middle East and other parts of the world, and making sure that we stay vigilant in trying to protect them, and to hunt down and bring the perpetrators of this specific act to justice, and to roll up the networks that help to advance these kinds of plots."
Then he paused to wipe his chin.

#19  A high drifter rode into Lago:
"Good burghers, please leggo my Eggo!
As we paint the town red,
I shall loaf and be fed,
Then retire and puff fat Don Diegos."

#18  I'll bet he says stupid stuff even in his sleep USN... Waking up not required.

#17  Due to wafting wisps of dagga, some of his think'n spells is clearer than others. Clearer spells interrupted by gold swings and balsak sratching. He simply can't be blamed, but neither can he be trusted. If he moved in next door, you'd list your house immediately. It's a strange conundrum it is.

#16  To John QCs point; I don't think the Waffler in Chief needs to go off TOTUS to say stupid stuff; he just has to wake up in the morning for that to happen......

#14  Rat bastard Obama encourages this shit. He'd rather punish people for exercising their rights to free speech and press than face the fact that the terrorists are muzzies. Hey, we don't want to offend our killers, our colonizers, our new oppressors. And you can just forget about that Constitution.

Just like when he acts like people who resist arrest should be allowed to walk away from their crimes if the police are unable to subdue them without inflicting the slightest injury. After all, if they wanna knock over a convenience store or sell cigarettes or heroin or meth to kids it's just because they were deprived. Nevermind if the cops get hurt or killed because we all know the cops are racists.

Ain't that right, Barry?

#13  When he said these attacks can happen anywhere in the world, he didn't mean it as a statement of caution. He meant it to be a warning to infidels everywhere. He might as well have been waiving a dull machete above his head while saying it.

#12  There is the threat factor. One can say don't give up protection money to the Mafia and have everyone agree in theory while continuing to pay because they know the Mafia will mess them up if they stop.

The bad guys need to be in fear so the folks feel safe. Then options are open. Bad guys living in the West, despite constantly bracing for a backlash against Muslims, have absolutely no fear.

There ois a nother solution: Have most Muslims abdnon Islam in horror and spit at Mosques. B ut for that, first thing would be _us_ stopping saying Islam is a religion of peace. We hmust say Islam is evil.

POTUS handlers should never let him go off TOTUS.--He doesn't wing it very well--asinine statements tend to come out of his mouth.

#9  "One does not eradicate a field of dandelions by only picking the ones that have gone to seed."

This very accurate quote could also be applied to the regimes programme of 'drone zapping' senior AQ leadership, or so-called 'high value targets.'

"One does not eradicate a field of dandelions by only picking the ones that have gone to seed."

While I'm not an advocate for genocide I do appreciate a fine analogy.

I mourn for the French people. I also hope they wake up to the mistake their gov't has made with open immigration and vote accordingly.

#6  "These Kind of Attacks Can Happen Anywhere in the World" that Muslims are permitted to be present.

Simple solution - eliminate all Muslims.

"But - there are 1.6 billion Muslims - you can't get rid of them all."

Sure you can - you just have to get started. Admittedly, it will take a long time. But - the time will pass anyway. 'Might as well have a Muslim-free world at the end.

#5  When a small isolated event
Sticks its bloody nose into your tent,
Muslim's deem it a sin
Not to welcome it in
And be moved by your foe's discontent.

"I stand fast with France, and vote present!
My Mohammedan cheek
Has received but a tweak
And it wasn't entirely unpleasant.

#2  ......can happen anywhere in the world.

But they don't do they. They take place in specific places, for specific reasons, and are conducted by a particular kind of people, referred by most as yes, Islamic terrorists. Of course the Champ our resident Mohammadan apologist cannot bring himself to utter the words 'Islamic terrorist.'
