A few thoughts on President Obamas address to the United Nations today. First, I believe it was a missed opportunity by the President to detail a clear, decisive strategy to defeat radical Islam and deter aggressors like Putin. President Obama rightly said radical Islamists only understand the “language of force.” However, when President Obama then pledges not to use ground forces against ISIL he emboldens the enemy. They hear what we WILL NOT DO to defeat them. Second, President Obama condemning Russia without arming Ukraine is just empty rhetoric. Putin doesn’t fear or respect President Obama’s words. He would respect a well-trained Ukrainian army fighting for their freedom.
