Considering President Obama's well thought out strategy concerning ISIS, how is ISIS still advancing?

Update:

Since there are some delusional blaming Bush, I hope this helps.

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."

--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by mass destruction program."

--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

    Let's see if this turns on any light bulbs:

    1. Obama says he has a well thought out strategy concerning ISIS.

    2. ISIS continues to advance.

    Put items 1 and 2 together, and you get...

    Obama's well thought out strategy concerning ISIS is to support the continued advance of ISIS.

    And it is working splendidly.

    There now. See how simple that was...

    Source(s): I think now we know who the real terrorist is.

    1. There would be no ISIS had GW not lied us into a war in Iraq.

    2. See #1.

    Just as there would not have been a Great Recession had Bush not stolen the 2000 election. There are all kinds of bad things that would not have occurred had Repubs not had full control for 6 solid years, and veto power in the final two. They trashed the place. Then folded their arms, while obstructing all efforts to speed the recovery - like little children.

    Obama doesn't have any strategy, he is given different options for strategies....and then he picks one he likes the best....the thing is, our country has no clue on how to fight this type of thing, with out looking like barbarians, and following certain rules....

    8 air strikes yesterday; there were 8 in the first 30 seconds of Desert Storm. For once he told the truth: NO SHOCK & AWE. Or victory either...

    The "grand coalition" that Obama has assembled is the finest in the land. LOL We can be assured a "final victory" is coming even as tanks approach Berlin....I mean Baghdad. LOL

    Do you mean the strategy where the Democrats said that if you remove Saddam Hussein that he would be replaced by somebody worse?
