Robert Spencer video: Why the State Department Swamp Is In Dire Need of Draining

Mar 8, 2017 6:31 pm By Robert Spencer

In this new video, I explain some of the key failed policies and analyses that the Trump administration State Department should jettison quickly and decisively.

    Good, forceful presentation. I’m sure it will be noted. Time will tell if it will be acted upon.

      With conflicting and diametrically-opposing interpretations regarding the true nature and motive of our enemy (from within the administration, led by the completely clueless McMaster useful infidel); just how promising are our prospects for success against Islamic supremacists?

      Should this self-defeating trend continue (the Trump administration drains one part of the swamp while replenishing the other with woefully-myopic, useful infidels like McMaster at the helm of national intelligence), prosecuting this war will be perpetually-imperiled if not altogether disabled.

      One step forward. Two steps backward. Not, exactly, the way to win a war! Even a civilian preacher can see that!

    YAY!!! Prez Trump it is about time that you bring out the the so called false training materials and re train again.

    Enough damage has been done by Caliph Obama for eight long years.

    I would urge any American citizens here who have skills in hard languages (including Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, etc.) to go take the Foreign Service Exam next time it’s offered. If you are a naturalized citizen, you’re just as eligible as anyone who was born a citizen. If there is truly a “bloodbath” at State and people moving up to fill in the slots of the higher-ups who are cut, then they’ll be needing some new blood.

    Keep in mind, if they have a question about the three countries with which the US shares borders, they’re Canada, Mexico, and Russia.

    Whether you stay or make it only a short career, you’ll find the work very interesting.

    Among those who should be fired immediately are Marie Harf and Jen Psaki. Not too long ago, Harf said this about ISIS, in a television interview: “… We cannot win this war by killing them. We cannot kill our way out of this war. We need in the medium to longer term to go after the root causes that leads people to join these groups, whether it’s lack of opportunity for jobs, whether —.”
    Psaki, is another Obama-era idiot who, on many occasions, demonstrated abysmal ignorance about Islam and geopolitics during her numerous television and press appearances. The internet is replete with videos and transcripts, all of which are easily found, which reveal how utterly out of her depth she was while working for the unlamented just-departed occupant of the White House.

    Hopefully, the two of them have already been given their walking papers, even as this is being written. Don’t let the door hit you in your pretty little butts on your way out, sweethearts.

      Marie is now a FOX Ne3ws contributor,,,

        By gosh, you’re right, swami! I just did some googling – which I should have done before posting my comment – and there it was. I also discovered that Psaki just started a new job with CNN as a “contributor.” Well, at least Washington is rid of both of them.

      • John says

        And Psaki is supposedly part of the Obama-Jarret deep-state insurgency being run out of Obama’s basement.

      You mean Lucy and Ethel, the clowns of the State Dept. Oh, yeah, let’s not kill them, let’s make sure we import the savages to kill us!!! Obama and his minions are so embedded in that town, it will take a large pump to make the swam dry. Time will win out. Don’t think for a minute that Trump is not still listening to great leaders like Flynn. He indeed pointed this out a long time before Trump became President. Just because he is not in the house, does not mean he is gone for good. His advice and knowledge is still in touch. Patriots all!!

    This is good news…I hope this brings changes in our society as far as keeping an eye on the organizations that have been established to support and the doctrine they are supporting, directing and funding and the media outlets that may be contributing to protect and mislead.

    Terrorists aren’t impoverished? This simply cannot be true. Balderdash!!
    Marie Harf is famous for explaining to us that what the U.S. needs to do to combat terrorism is to conduct job fairs throughout the Middle East. Give them jobs flipping burgers and the terrorism goes away.

    So simple – and wrong.

      Mortimer says:

      “Message to President Trump: PLEASE HIRE ROBERT SPENCER NOW”.

      I second that! It would greatly enhance the fight against global Islamic jihadists if President Trump hires
      Robert Spencer now.

    Trump is surrounded by enemies who are trying to replace him.
    He’s also full of contradictions. At the time of the election or before, he was describing Hillary as a ‘good woman’ and talking about how much he likes the clinton family. l’m not sure what to make of him atm.

    • underbed cat says

      Mar 9, 2017 at 3:38 pm

      Agree.

    How can terrorists be impoverished when their funded by the Saudi’s?

  10. Angemon says

    Mar 9, 2017 at 3:15 pm

    Poverty causes terrorism? Why is it, then, that the Mecca for suicide bombers is not Caracas but Mecca?
