I quoted a Republican who is an acknowledged expert on Middle Eastern policy from a well-accepted Republican media site.

Care to speak to that?

What gets me is the people running have been in power long enough to stop ISIS. They have failed miserably but we have to give them another chance to fix this. BS

I really don't think such an individual exists, a gop middle east policy expert that is.

Trump is ISIS' "biggest recruiter"?

I figured Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi would be the best recuiter

Pointless. Withdrawn.

Who ?

That NEOCON, Warhawk Clinton supporters hate so much.

Then use him as a 'defense' ?

Only in the twilight zone.

As bad as she was as Sec of State one would think ISIS is chanting her name to be the POTUS...lol

Asked about the claim, a Clinton spokesperson pointed to quotes from Rita Katz of the SITE Intelligence group, which tracks and analyzes terrorists.

"They love him from the sense that he is supporting their rhetoric," the gorup's executive director, Rita Katz told NBC News earlier this month. "When he says, 'No Muslims should be allowed in America,' they tell people, 'We told you America hates Muslims and here is proof.''"

CBS News

Rita Katz (born 1963) is a terrorism analyst and the co-founder of the Search for International Terrorist Entities (SITE) Intelligence Group, a private intelligence firm based in Washington, DC.

The Institute tracks global terrorist networks, and intercepts and distributes secret messages, videos, and advance warnings of suicide bombings from terrorist groups' communications networks.

No one is using Graham as "a defense" ... can you deny that he said what he said about Trump BACK IN AUGUST 2015?

Do you deny that Senator Graham is a Republican? or that he knows something about Middle Eastern policy?

Is "Newsmax" also left-wing?

Address the facts and stop the spin, please.

Still won't say Hillary LIED will you?
1 video link just 1 ISIS recruitment video link with even anything close to trump on it; at this point I would even take a clip from the apprentice tv show.

a reply to: Gryphon66

To be honest I don't listen to Graham.

Grahams solution would be invade the entire middle eat.

Trumps solution was mild by comparison.

a reply to: neo96

So, you don't listen to him. I posted his quote from August 2015.

He states clearly that Trump and his rhetoric are helping ISIS, and he states why.

Then you proceed to misrepresent what Graham says and means, contradicting your own statement that you don't listen to him.

Got facts?

a reply to: Gryphon66

Because he wanted the job as president, and has since dropped out.

Graham has exactly ZERO credibility.

Lindsey Graham: ‘I would literally use the military to keep [Congress in session]…until we restore these defense cuts’

Just EXACTLY what did I 'misrepresent' ?

a reply to: neo96

Zero credibility?

Sure, why not? That's your opinion. Again ... so?

Graham is a 12-year veteran of the US Senate, he was a member of the US Air Force, and a Colonel in the South Carolina National Guard, has served on the Armed Forces Committee ... he has visited the Middle East dozens of times, is cognizant of top military intelligence on the matter, etc. etc. etc.

He stated that Trump is helping ISIS to recruit, and he stated that back in August 2015.

Clinton's statement is not without basis, even among one of her political OPPOSITES.

Perhaps where you claimed

Grahams solution would be invade the entire middle eat.

Trumps solution was mild by comparison.

Point out the part of your link that states that Graham has suggested we "invade the entire Middle East"?

Graham running his mouth.

Clinton running HER mouth.

IS OPINION.

Right, as is you running your mouth, me running my mouth, etc.

But some opinions are based on facts, intelligence, knowledge, etc.

You seem desperate to discredit Senator Graham, yet, he is one of the greatest proponents of a hawkish US Foreign Policy ...

Why is that?

Why are you jumping through flaming hoops to discredit Graham?

He's a Republican.

He's pro-military.

He's against Democrats.

He knows what he's talking about (unless you can prove him wrong.)

Why so desperate, Neo?

No they aren't.

NOT in American politics.

No one will find ANY of those in AP,
