Reader comment on item: Jihadists Crippling the West from Within

This is a revolting statement: "Let's state the obvious. The administration has operated under the misguided belief that jihadists can be contained. If we just treat them nicely and don't identify them for what they are, they'll leave us alone." Again, I ask: Why do you think the Obama administration is operating "under the misguided belief that jihadists can be contained"? Perhaps the administration doesn't want the jihadists "contained," let alone destroyed. Have you ever entertained that possibility? Why can't you take that last important step and concede that Obama would not mind seeing this country crippled and maimed by another Islamic attack? Don't all his actions, in his domestic and foreign policies, over the last eight years add up to that conclusion? You've done a superb and heroic job of documenting that evidence. Why are you so hesitant to call Obama evil?
