So you are actually claiming that Barack Obama took a TOUGH STAND on terror?   This is truly hilarious inasmuch as Obama wouldn`t even utter the word terror, went around apologizing to the Arab world for imagined American sins against Arabs and Muslims thereby further recruiting, motivating and validating the terrorists and enabler states, drew red lines in the sand when everyone knew he was a poser who would never enforce them, did the minimum possible in terms of sorties and strikes on ISIS,  prematurely withdrew American troops from Iraq against the advice of all of his field generals, etc., etc.

Why do you think that the reception for Trump was so much more fulsome and friendly and enthusiastic and complimentary than for Obama on his state visits to the ME countries if he was considered interchangeable with BO?

With you, Thomas, denial is not just a river in Egypt!
