3 Times Obama Administration Was Warned About ISIS |
|
Did the intelligence community underestimate ISIS or did the President? In his 60 Minutes interview, the President seemed to put the blame on the intelligence community, saying ???I think they underestimated what had been taking place in Syria.??? At the White House daily briefing, Press Secretary Josh Earnest cast the net quite a bit wider: ???Everybody was surprised to see the rapid advance that ISIL was able to make from Syria across the Iraqi border,??? said Earnest. But, wait a minute: for nearly a year, senior officials in the US government have been warning about the alarming rise of ISIS, or ISIL as the terrorist group is also known, and the inability of the Iraqi government to confront the threat. |
