How Does the Arab Spring Look Now?

The brutality that is ISIS has revealed itself in so many ways. Over the last week, ISIS has killed hundreds of Yazidi men while taking hundreds of women and children hostage.

It was reported by CNN on Wednesday night that 130 US "assessors" camped out to evaluate the situation on Mount Sinjar north of Mosul in northern Iraq. They were to determine over that 24 hour period how many Christians, Yazidis and Kurds are stranded on the mountain.

But this is not even the crux of the disaster. The issue at hand is that we and the world had an opportunity to prevent this from happening in late 2010, all of 2011 and most of 2012 during the so-called Arab Spring. Many, including me, recognized it for what it was: an opportunity for Islamists, under the guise of overthrowing Islamic dictatorships, to seize control of the media to spin their narrative of gaining their liberty and freedom from the yokes of suppression.

Obviously, our media and our government, led by Barry and the leaders of both parties, bought the lie hook, line and sinker. Since that time, bin Laden was killed, Egypt overthrew two governments,  Libya overthrew Khaddafi and  became a terrorist haven, Syria has been involved in a civil war where 170 THOUSAND people have died, the US, withdrew, uhh, abandoned Iraq, where ISIS has established a mini-caliphate and finally, US Ambassador Chris Stevens and four members of his security detail were assassinated on the 11th anniversary of the worst attack on the United States since Pearl Harbor on 09/11/2012.

Yet, Barry and his stooges all continue to insist the world is a better place since the US has drawn down its presence in the Middle East, that ISIS is a ragtag group of farmers and shopkeepers just an annoyance to the (failing) Iraqi government,  which caused its problems by its lack of inclusiveness.

Really? I guess it must be true because Barry said so, and of course, he wouldn't lie to the American people for political reasons, would he?

Except for this. ISIS and its affiliates are committing barbaric, savage, inhuman, and evil acts of torture equal to or worse than any done by Hitler and the Nazis, Saddam and his thugs, Milosevic and his. They have raped, beaten, beheaded and crucified women and children, as well as men, for not submitting to ISIS' will.

And Barry and the gang? Well, vacations from the world's problems are priorities, of course.  They have all worked so hard making the world a better place for humanity, haven't they? In fact, Barry and his former SecState, Madame Hillary, attended a function at Vernon Jordan's home for a job well-done.

I guess the ostrich-like act works well. Too bad Iraq and the entire Middle East are infernos. Maybe Barry needs a real wakeup call, like watching the entire Iraqi government be assassinated by ISIS under his watch.

But wait! In his warped thinking, they would deserve it. And it would be George Bush's fault for not negotiating a SOFA before he left, even though there were three years to go after he left to get it done.

I just hope we don't soon see American soldiers hanging on those crosses. Will the media give Barry a pass then? I pray not!

So much for the freaking Arab Spring.
