What I find so impossible to believe is that so many politicians refused to admit is that the threat of Islamic terrorism to the United States comes from one branch of Islam, the Sunnis. The refusal of Obama to use other branches to fight ISIS and al-Qaeda is seriously hamper our efforts to combat them. Unfortunately he is not alone. Almost to a man (and woman), the GOP candidates stand in opposition to using the enemies of ISIS in our war with them. The GOP controlled Senate even with so far as to impose further sanctions against Hezbollah just a few days after ISIS suicide bombers killed 45 in a Hezbollah neighborhood in Beirut. You can bet ISIS was cheering that vote on from afar.
