Here, from an article in London\’s Daily Mail, is a compendium of atrocities which demonstrate – as if anyone needed more proof – of how completely Barack Obama lied to us during the 2012 election campaign about the capacity of radical Islam – al qaeda and its offshoots – to commit acts of terrorism…and how ashamed much of our mainstream media – very especially the three major networks – should be that they bought into those lies:

\’Myhusband told them we were Christians and they shot him in the head\’:How al-Shabaab militia went from door to door killing non-Muslims asKenyan village watched World Cup

• Kenya attack happened as residents watched World Cup matches last night

• Authorities have blamed al-Shabaab, Somalia\’s al-Qaida-linked terror group

• Assault happened in Mpeketoni which is 60 miles from Somali border

• Witnesses say gunmen went door to door asking if residents spoke Somali

• If the answer was no they shot them dead on their doorstep, say locals

• Images of Iraqi men being shot dead in a ditch by ISIS militants shock world

• Taliban insurgents hack off fingers of 11 men for voting in general election

• Search continues for three Israeli teens kidnapped by Hamas in Palestine

• Former Nigerian president says kidnapped schoolgirls may never be found

How many times, in how many ways, does this man have to lie to us for some people, in or out of mainstream media, to realize they are dealing with a liar? 

How many people have to die before media connect the dots and acknowledge that, far from being virtually decimated, al qaeda and its kindred pals were strong then, and are stronger than ever right now?
