See, when they lose, we win, and when they win, we win. All is well. Go back to sleep.
These fantasists need to be turned out of office as soon as possible, before they destroy the free world utterly.
“Secretary of State John Kerry says recent ‘desperate’ terrorist attacks proves ISIS ‘on the run,’” by Valerie Richardson, Washington Times, July 17, 2016:
Secretary of State John F. Kerry said Sunday that the latest rampage of deadly terrorist attacks worldwide shows that the Islamic State is “on the run.”
“They are on the run, and what I believe what we are seeing are the desperate actions of an entity that sees the noose closing around it,” Mr. Kerry said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
He was immediately challenged by CNN anchor Jake Tapper, who said candidly: “With all due respect, sir, I’m not sure it looks that way to the public, that ISIS is on the run.”
Mr. Tapper cited five terrorist attacks in the last five weeks, including the June 12 massacre at a nightclub in Orlando, Florida, that left 49 dead, and most recently the 84 people killed Thursday at a Bastille Day celebration in Nice, France.
“I don’t think ISIS is on the run,” said Mr. Tapper.
Mr. Kerry said that it is unclear whether those attackers were actually members of ISIS or merely individuals inspired by their ideology.
“It depends on where you mean ISIS,” Mr. Kerry said. “I don’t know if this guy [in Nice] was actually ISIS and nor do you. And we don’t know if the guy in Orlando was fundamentally ISIS, nor even told what to do by ISIS. If people are inspired, they’re inspired.”
At the same time, he said, “But ISIL, which is based in Iraq and Syria, is under huge pressure, and that’s just a fact.”…

It certainly proves how out of touch with reality our beloved Obama administration is. Good for Jake Tapper. He’s usually out of touch with reality also.
Angry Aussie says
Why can’t they just bomb Mecca to test out the whole “Religion of peace” theory many of our Islamic illiterates ascribe to? After all, the Muslims are against idolatry.
bridgette says
Maybe we won’t have to. I hear a huge hotel in Mecca is on fire. Hope it spreads. RT news.
Jay Boo says
Criticizing or even scrutinizing Islam is:
“Giving the terrorists what they want”
We must instead, praise Muhammad and Islam until:
“we force all radicalized (nothing to do with Islam) terrorists into submission.”

Was he officially in the ISIS club or not? We may never know. Big question hey? What a load of shit these people talk. Does such a thing as an ISIS membership card exist? This is utter nonsense and everybody knows it. It’s too late in the day to obfuscate with this drivel.
Mong says
Kerry is about as smart as my sock. He and Obama need to go play some golf and let real people handle real situations.
Hindu American says
November is not that far off. Looks like the next administration will inherit a mess that the current one has knowingly created.
Hopefully not Hillary. But wait, she too was dodging bullets in Iraq once upon a time. Therefore, she is well “qualified”.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
You can’t say that, he’s a Yale Man.
Mong says
It’s possible to be academically brilliant but ideologically crippled. Kerry is an ideologue and it’s seriously imparing his thinking capacity. Having said that, I suspect they know what cobblers they’re putting out there. There’s an element of psychological warfare going on here in trying to stop Islam from owning it’s atrocities but without sufficient military action it seems to be back firing. They’ve painted themselves in to a corner. They can hardly come out now and say actually guys we do have a problem with Islam after all and not just a small minority distorting its teachings. That’ll be for future leaders to declare.

I must disagree. Your sock is so much smarter than kerry even dreams to be.
Angemon says
Lurch, Lurch, Lurch, in the words of one of your fellow Obama Administration Democrats, “what difference does it make”? The islamic state told muslims who, for whatever reason, were unable to join them in Syria to go out and kill non-muslims where they are. If you have muslims pledging their allegiance too ISIS and killing non-muslims, as the islamic state exhorted them to do, why push that distinction without a difference?
Angemon says
typo: “allegiance to”, not “allegiance too” 😀
Westman says
I’ll go further and tell Mr. Kerry that defeating ISIS is not the key to stopping Islamic violence. It’s the reformation of Islam that is required.
The Quran and Sunnah are open-ended screeds to violence upon infidels. When a Muslim finds life intolerable, Islam gives him a way out to a paradisiacal existence by being a martyr. You might have noticed that these attackers rarely planned any escape.
So, Mr. Kerry, you can defeat all of the known radical factions and the violence will continue because new jihadists are made every day from Islamic dogma.
All fundamental Islam needs is a stressor and the violence begins. The stressor is usually the sense of failure in the face of Allah’s description of being the best of people and deserving of everything(without the required effort). Islam is it’s own stressor, bringing reputational failure upon a society; eliminating women from production, stealing time from the workday, and closing the mind to innovation. It simply can’t keep up with the West’s progress and the more obvious that failure becomes, due to global communications, the more angry Islamists cast about for a reason that doesn’t blame Allah for his failed promises. It becomes the fault of infidels because Allah declares infidels as the source of the evils that beset Islam. That “Great Satan” chant is not of recent origin.
So, Mr. Kerry, your very existence as a Western infidel is an irritation to Islamists. If you don’t believe it, take a walk on the streets of Pakistan, your ally, without a security team, and report the results.
Victoria Howerton says
I would argue that ISIS is part of the Islamic Reformation. (Back to its roots). What Islam desperately needs is a TRANSformation, a makeover every bit as radical as a surgical regendering procedure. Unfortunately the chances of that succeeding are as likely as Bruce Jenner becoming a real woman..
Bezelel says
kerry said,”“It depends on where you mean ISIS,” Mr. Kerry said. “I don’t know if this guy [in Nice] was actually ISIS and nor do you.”
The stories are being spread about the killer’s financial/marital issues. Where did he get the money to install bullet proof glass on the truck and the weapons as well? Those items are not cheap and keeping it all secret in France with strict gun/explosive control and after the previous attacks the country was already on alert. Their B.S. is insulting.
Don Davenport says
America deserves these morons like Kerry, Obama a d the Clintons.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
See, when they lose, we win, and when they win, we win.
And we beleaguered Infidels can’t win for losing. I’m so confused at this point that the only way to certitude looks to be converting to Islam. But that’s moral suicide, and I don’t want to take anybody over. Stuck in the swirl of liberal fictive realities. They’ve go me surrounded.
somehistory says
Disgusting…in order to deceive, he is weaving lies..
He’s no better than the terrorists, as he enables them by lying for them and pretending that all is well. Reminds of atta and the hijackers with him: ‘just sit down and be quiet and you will be okay.’
Each time someone kills and says they are with isis, that they are working for/with isis, the liars come forth and say that isis was not involved. Each time someone says they are killing for islam, and their name clearly says they are devoted to the devil, liars come forth and say they are not and it has nothing to do with islam.
Liars are children of the father of lies, satan the devil. They will share his portion.

Kerry: “Desperate” jihad massacres show that the Islamic State is “on the run”
…………………….
Oh, those little dust-ups in Nice and Orlando just show that ISIS is “desperate”–not, of course, that they had anything to do with ISIS at all…
Really, how can this jerk live with himself?
linnte says
First he says these attacks prove ISIS is on the run, then he backtracks and says he doesn’tknow it the attackers are ISIS related or not. What an idiot!

Kerry looks and acts like Stan Laurel,
BC says
I am no fan of Kerry and do not care for Tapper either, (Candy Crowley was much better on SOTU). But despite Tapper straining to twist words Kerry was speaking quite clearly. He said that because IS is under great pressure in Iraq and Syria, it is urging more and more that its supporters in Western countries to carry out jihad. I watched that interview and I do not remember him using ‘on the run’.
Their hope is to put pressure on the governments which are attacking IS to withdraw. This is a standard strategy, when attacked you try to draw attention elsewhere to relieve pressure where it is greatest. The attacks in France and USA cost IS nothing but are very effective in projecting power.
IS has told its supporters not to come to the ME any more but to carry out attacks in situ.
I know the right are fanatics for attacking the left aka Democrats but twisting words does no service to JW or AS
