Barack Hussein Obama has already indicated he is uncomfortable with the word “Victory” when discussing Afghanistan and he announced upon taking office the use of “War on Terror” is not in vogue any longer.

Two terrorist attacks have taken place in the United States under Obama’s watch, this is not George W. Bush’s fault. One attack was at Ft. Hood, Texas and it took Obama days to visit the largest military base in the world and hours before he discussed anything with the press, only after joking with his media minions.

After Flight 253 was almost blown out of the sky while preparing to land in Detroit it took over 72 hours for Obama to break away from his golf game to address the American people who nearly had Christmas Day interrupted with the death of hundreds of innocent people.

Obama then announced that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was “an isolated extremist” and that he had already “been charged with attempting to destroy an aircraft.” Was there any charge of multiple attempted murder in this mishandling of a terrorist attack in the United States of America?

Obama treated the Flight 253 incident like a common law enforcement problem while referring to Abdulmutallab as the “suspect” five times and promised he would “not rest until we find all who were involved and hold them accountable.”

The fact is, Abdulmutallab’s attack is in no conceivable way “isolated” and very much part of al Qaeda’s larger war on the United States. That would be the “War on Terror.”

Homeland Security head, Janet Napolitano, appears like a buffoon on Sunday said “the system worked” when discussing Flight 253 only to backtrack on Monday. Obama finally admitted yesterday that “a systemic failure has occurred, four full days after Abdulmutallab’s attack.

Of course, Mr. Obama will avoid blame and as usual find someone in the intelligence community to throw under his well used bus. Here are some suspects that will be looking for work soon:

1. According to CBS News, as early as August of 2009 the Central Intelligence Agency was picking up information on a person of interest dubbed “The Nigerian,” suspected of meeting with “terrorist elements” in Yemen.
2. According to the Wall Street Journal, the father of Mr. Abdulmutallab warned the CIA of his son’s likely radicalization at the U.S. embassy in Abuja, Nigeria. That led to a broader gathering of agencies the next day, including the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the State Department, in which the information was shared.
3. According to CNN, information on Abdulmutallab, including his passport number and possible connection to extremists, had been sent to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, but it sat there for five weeks and was not disseminated.
4. Also according to the Wall Street Journal, the National Security Agency who had been monitoring former Guantanamo detainees in Yemen had communications intercepts suggesting a Nigerian was being prepped for a terror strike by al Qaeda operatives in that country.
5. The Washington Post reports that not only did the British government reject an Abdulmutallab visa application this May, but that British Home Secretary Alan Johnson said that U.S. officials should have been told about the rejection and that he believes they were.

So much “intelligence” so little time. We remind you, this is all occurring on Barack Hussein Obama’s watch, not to be confused with George W. Bush or for that matter, Dick Cheney. It might be nice to recall the days of Bill Clinton, watching golf, leaving fighter jets on the tarmac while Osama bin Laden was in sight. failing to give the order to kill. By the way, why hasn’t Obama captured or killed Mr. bin Laden, wasn’t he busy blaming George W. Bush for not capturing the terror mastermind at Tora Bora along with that military “expert” John Kerry?

Yemen is one center on the “War on Terror” but the Obama administration missed that fact. Osama bin Laden’s father was born in Yemen and al-Qaeda’s first attack came in Yemen in December 1992 when bin Laden’s followers bombed a hotel in Yemen that was used by US military personnel involved in supporting the humanitarian food relief flights to Somalia.

In October 2000, seventeen American sailors on board the USS Cole, were killed in an al-Qaeda bombing in the harbor of Aden, Yemen’s main port.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is not a “suspect” and his acts of terror are not “alleged.” This is not “Law and Order”, this is Jihad against America and innocent people around the world. These are not mere criminals, they are terrorists who attend training camps and study bomb making and are willing to commit suicide for their cause. These terrorists believe in mass murder, not robbing your local convenient store or gas station.

Treating terrorism as a local law enforcement responsibility, threatening CIA employees with criminal charges for interrogation methods deemed improper and going back to the days of the Clinton administration and Janet Reno is not the way to fight terrorism.

When you have Obama in denial, obfuscation and appearing delusional we must wonder when political correctness ends and the reality of worldwide terrorist networks are admitted as a real part of our world. Indeed!
