White House: ISIS has ambition for U.S. attack, but likely lacks capability
Antalya, Turkey (CNN)President Barack Obama's national security team is sending a message Sunday that might lend at least a glimmer of reassurance to Americans traumatized by the terror attacks in Paris.
Saying that while the ISIS ambition is certainly there to launch similar attacks on U.S. shores, the capability is not great.
Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes told reporters that one big difference between the situation in Europe and that in the U.S. is that "thousands" of fighters have traveled to Syria and then returned to Europe. That number being tracked in America is far smaller-- around 40, according to the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper earlier this year.
Clapper added that not all of those ISIS joiners were necessarily fighting -- some might have served other roles for the terrorist group, such as first aid -- and he knew of no terrorist plots that any of those returning have been involved in once back in the U.S.
Rhodes said that ISIS has found more utility in trying to recruit or motivate sympathizers in America online, from abroad.
A top FBI counterterrorism official told Congress this year that "hundreds, maybe thousands" of people in the U.S. follow ISIS online. And this year alone, at least 49 alleged ISIS "supporters" in America have been charged with related crimes. The largest number of those were in New York.
An ISIS-inspired plot in Garland, Texas, in May, in which two men with body armor and assault rifles opened fire outside an art contest in which participants drew pictures of the prophet Mohammed, was thwarted by a security officer who shot and killed both suspects.
The FBI had been watching one of the suspects' online activity referencing the contest, and had warned police in Garland hours before the attack, though officials didn't know he was planning an attack, and weren't closely monitoring his physical whereabouts.
Following that attack, intelligence officials have said they are now doing more monitoring of "hundreds" of suspected ISIS supporters.
Rhodes emphasized Sunday there is currently "no specific, credible threat" of an attack being planned in the U.S., but vigilance among law enforcement is high. PositiveVibe 发表于 11/16/2015 12:30:39 AM

"ISIS has ambition for U.S. attack, but likely lacks capability" 这个新闻当时发FB上发时，点赞最多的一个评论是：“The only one lacks capability is Obama."
“Can we adopted the French extremeist speech policy here and use to export republicans that preach hate?”
“It would be a headache to deport a few thousand old, uneducated, southern, white men; let them die out quietly. When they're all gone, I'll show you an honest civil war reinactment (plus a Jim Crow reinactment, followed by a Jim Crow two-point-oh reinactment).”
In essence, the House first decides if there are grounds to impeach the president, and if it does, the Senate holds a formal impeachment trial. In the House of Representatives The House Judiciary Committee decides whether or not to proceed with impeachment. If they do...
The Chairman of the Judiciary Committee will propose a Resolution calling for the Judiciary Committee to begin a formal inquiry into the issue of impeachment.
Based on their inquiry, the Judiciary Committee will send another Resolution to the full House stating that impeachment is warranted and why (the Articles of Impeachment), or that impeachment is not called for.
The Full House (probably operating under special floor rules set by the House Rules Committee) will debate and vote on each Article of Impeachment.
Should any one of the Articles of Impeachment be approved by a simple majority vote, the President will be "impeached." However, being impeached is sort of like being indicted of a crime. There still has to be a trial, which is where the US Senate comes in.
In the Senate The Articles of Impeachment are received from the House. The Senate formulates rules and procedures for holding a trial.

Next, always remember Trump wrote the book on negotiation. It’s called “The Art of the Deal.” Well his new book should be called “The Art of the Immigration Deal.” Will Trump ever get the chance to deport 12 to 15 million illegal aliens? Maybe not. But Trump understands this is all a negotiation. Just the threat of deporting millions of illegal aliens puts Trump in the drivers seat to get what he really wants.

Theoretically speaking, climate change is a much bigger problem than terrorism. The number of lives threatened by climate change is much, much greater.

圣母愿意被爆头，就随她们去吧，正好看看脑子是怎么长的
就像把俄国飞机炸下来的时候，还说ISIS没有这个能力，因为飞机在高空30,000 ft，ISIS根本没有能打到这个高度的装备，可是人家才不会那么麻烦，搞个炸弹足够了

Islamic State. https://t.co/LSVa0BNglf
这就剥夺了人家的宗教信仰自由，人权呢，普世呢，msl答应么？
O8从来不叫ISIS，而叫ISIL
有什么区别吗？
南无大愿地藏王菩萨！！！

BLESS America ！ BLESS 大家平平安安！
ISIL includes Levant, which includes the area we like to call Israel.
大概的意思就是说O8眼里有以色列，而伊斯兰国眼里没以色列
而且还要坚持释放关岛囚犯，刚放了5个也门的，还要坚持大幅度的接纳难民，它现在每做的一件事，都不是有利于美国大众以及基督徒的。
以前小布什，我还能看出一颗爱国的红心，虽然有点憨傻。
我觉得很可能啊，感恩节，圣诞节，新年的时候，人群聚集的最佳时期

媒体现在有点批评o8 的记者问！太娘们了！就这样还要当老大呢！也就Ｍｓｎｂｃ还在奥巴一边！现在媒体都反应过来了，难民原来不都是好人！
几个州长说不，真好！这个世界要几个敢说不的人才好！左派怎不知道怎么想的！包头对同性恋，吸大麻，几乎是赶紧杀绝呀！还不如一般移民！这么大肆引进！脑子在想什么！

弹劾总统程序：

The Chairman of the Judiciary Committee will propose a Resolution calling for the Judiciary Committee to begin a formal inquiry into the issue of impeachment.

In the Senate
The Articles of Impeachment are received from the House.
The Senate formulates rules and procedures for holding a trial.
A trial will be held. The President will be represented by his lawyers. A select group of House members will serve as "prosecutors." The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (currently John G. Roberts) will preside with all 100 Senators acting as the jury.
The Senate will meet in private session to debate a verdict.
The Senate, in open session, will vote on a verdict. A 2/3 vote of the Senate will result in a conviction.
The Senate will vote to remove the President from office.
The Senate may also vote (by a simple majority) to prohibit the President from holding any public office in the future.
不过现在senators，R是54个，D是45个，还有一个I的，能达到2/3的要求么。
我瞄了下那个case for impeachment of Barack Obama，article 5，6，8都非常符合啊！！
我签了那个请愿弹劾总统的网站了，不知道管啥用。
马克。下班去签。
o8恶心死人

哈哈，终于没停住，恐怖袭击，搞得媒体根本不报道他们了，他们在不闹点事情，大家就把它们忘了。
写得不错
其实Trump周一在Texas的演讲已经hint了，只要说要deport, 严查所有employer, 很多人自然会离开，一堆criminal先弄走，剩下的就没那么多了, 最后怎么样可以再看再谈，但你如果不说要deport所有，谁也不会走。一说到mass deportation一些GOP也跟着说impossible, 实在无脑。
trump对非移和移民的了解比那些什么律师医生政客出身的深刻多了，他也知道怎么才是有效的解决之道
关键是他们的教育，其实是很反智的，教育就天天谈leadership，不脚踏实地，现在这样的教育把问题都凸现出来了
OMG，这节骨眼儿上O8还在推销climate change，而且还要显得更重要，它是不是得了失心病了
按Sanders的看法，climate change和terrorism是紧密关联的，怎么关联？
都被恐怖分子杀光了，还担心lives被什么climate change威胁？！
恐怖组织从2006－2014年总共杀了不到17万人。
http://www.statista.com/statistics/202871/number-of-fatalities-by-terrorist-attacks-worldwide/
WHO 预测从2030－2050年，climate change 每年会导致250,000人死亡。
http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs266/en/
那由于climate change，从2006到2014年死了多少？
Climate change 导致了很多局部的干旱状况，减少了可饮用的水源，可耕种的田地，以及其他自然资源。为了争抢剩下的资源而导致了更多的摩擦。好比Boko Haram在非洲崛起就跟这种现象有关。
别人总结的是climate change间接的导致了terrorism的扩广，到了Sanders这里就成了直接的因果关系了。
你是打算不见棺材不掉泪么？等每年死25万人的时候才开始重视climate change能一下子就解决问题么？
2030年前还剩多少人类没被恐怖分子灭绝？
里面有审查叙利亚难民流程以及方法。
自从2011年叙利亚内战以来，来美的叙利亚难民共2200个，分部在36个州。
我怎么觉得还是很多漏洞呢？
你拿预测的数据跟已发生的数据比，真会比。恐怖分子发起的是战争，人类社会最大的杀手就是战争，历史上绝大多数非正常死亡除了疾病就是战争。还有ｃｌｉｍａｔｅ 不可能不change, 这个世界没有人类，climate 也是要change 的。不然恐龙现在还在，有人类什么事。另外你还要看人类影响里面贡献了多少。人类活动的确有影响，正面的消除负面的，就算还有负面影响好了，这个影响是全体人类一起承担，跟恐怖分子有目标性的杀戮能依样么？
除非恐怖份子掌握了核武器，要不然他们的杀伤力虽然可观，但相对来说还是有限的。除了楼上的那几位，你能找出几个人认为恐怖份子到2030年能达到每年杀死25万人的杀伤力？
