Obama: U.S. will help 'bring these terrorists to justice'

 By Brian Hughes  | January 7, 2015 | 9:28 am


President Obama Wednesday said his administration would "help bring these terrorists to justice,"...

President Obama Wednesday said his administration would “help bring these terrorists to justice,” as gunmen responsible for killing at least 12 people in Paris remain on the loose.

“I strongly condemn the horrific shooting at the offices of Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris that has reportedly killed 12 people,” Obama said. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of this terrorist attack and the people of France at this difficult time. France is America’s oldest ally, and has stood shoulder to shoulder with the United States in the fight against terrorists who threaten our shared security and the world.”

Earlier Wednesday, masked gunmen stormed the office of the satirical newspaper, opening fire in the Paris building, before fleeing the scene. The French government has since raised the terror alert to the highest level.

 
For his part, Obama said France and the city of Paris would move past the tragedy.

“Time and again, the French people have stood up for the universal values that generations of our people have defended,” Obama said. “France, and the great city of Paris where this outrageous attack took place, offer the world a timeless example that will endure well beyond the hateful vision of these killers. We are in touch with French officials and I have directed my Administration to provide any assistance needed to help bring these terrorists to justice.”

  He's going to help the French? He won't do anything to protect America and  he's going to do something for France?  As Simon & Garfunkle once noted in a song: "A pocket full of mumbles such are promises" which is especially true when it comes to Obama.

FLASHBACK: Obama 2012: 'The Future Must Not Belong To Those Who Slander The Prophet of Islam'

n the aftermath of the Islamic terrorist killing of 12 people at the French satire magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris, in vengeance for the magazine’s mockery of the Prophet Mohammed, it is worthwhile noting the cowardice of the American administration on issues of free speech related to Mohammed in the past.

After the murder of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans at the Benghazi, Libya consulate on September 11, 2012, President Obama and the rest of the Obama administration blamed a YouTube filmmaker for a video called “The Innocence of Muslims.” At the United Nations on September 25, 2012, Obama spoke out, not in defense of free speech, but in offense at the YouTube video:

    The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.

And, of course, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton allegedly told the father of one of the murdered Americans that she would achieve the arrest of the YouTube filmmaker. The Obama administration asked YouTube to pull the video altogether.

Hillary Clinton recently explained that the use of foreign policy “smart power” should focus on “leaving no one on the sidelines, showing respect even for one’s enemies, trying to understand and insofar as psychologically possible, empathize with their perspective and point of view.”

How many freakin' times has he promised to bring terrorists to justice?   

[EC]

A pretty soundbite, signifying nothing.

Not that the French require much help in this. They are pretty efficient at dealing with terrorists, though their version of justice may not be what the Worm has in mind.
