Directly contradicting previous claims from President Obama in mid-November, Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Joe Dunford told Congress today that the US has “not contained” ISIS, warning the group continues to spread across the Middle East.
Obama had claimed ISIS was “successfully contained” last month, in an interview broadcast just hours before ISIS launched their attack in Paris. Gen. Dunford is the first to actively contradict Obama on the matter.
Committee members also got Gen. Dunford to contradict Secretary of Defense Ash Carter, who testified right before him and described the situation as a war. Dunford insists the US is “technically not at war” against ISIS.
Obama contained to maintain today that he is confident about his war strategy against ISIS, and that the US will eventually not only defeat ISIS, but get Russia to agree to remove Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from power.
'warning the group continues to spread across the Middle East..'
This is more bull***t from the Pentagon meant to scare the crap
out of (us) masses. ISIS is just as phony as al-Qaeda; both were
creations of the psychopathic murdering USG regime.
If indeed ISIS (is) spreading across the Near East, its doing so
in the thousands of brand new Isuzu pickup trucks the corrupt
liars in the Pentagon (bought) with taxpayers' dollars and
furnished to its boogeyman (terrorists).
Of course, those of (us) masses who don't believe the garbage
from the USG regime and its lap dogs in the MSM are labeled
conspiracy nuts.
RIGHT ON GENERAL!!
This is all about that vote, congress was suppose to make.
The legal authority that is being used was not intended to cover this situation.
Once again the main stream media has dropped the ball.
Congress wants the President to do something,
But they don't want to touch this with a ten foot pole.
Since guerilla wars are unwinnable, ISIS, by definition, is not "contained" nor ever will be. The whole point may be to get Putin to send in ground forces and get even more bogged down.

Jan. 24, 2009 How Israel Helped to Spawn Hamas
Moshav Tekuma, Israel Surveying the wreckage of a neighbor's bungalow hit by a Palestinian rocket, retired Israeli official Avner Cohen traces the missile's trajectory back to an "enormous, stupid mistake" made 30 years ago. "Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel's creation," says Mr. Cohen, a Tunisian-born Jew who worked in Gaza for more than two decades. Responsible for religious affairs in the region until 1994, Mr. Cohen watched the Islamist movement take shape, muscle aside secular Palestinian rivals and then morph into what is today Hamas, a militant group that is sworn to Israel's destruction.
