why this photo has been stumping i served under president bush and obama. i fought the taliban. i was asked to form a global coalition to counter isil. when someone makes the comment that they know more about the islamic state or isil than do the generals, it implies a complete ignorance of the reality. but i believe secretary clinton really understands the threat that the islamic state poses merican power to ultimately defeat this threat and to keep us safe. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message.
