I wonder who is lying? Because someone is a lying puck.
Central Intelligence Agency Director John Brennan told a Senate panel on Thursday that the Obama administration's fight against the ISIS terror army hasn't set it on its heels, and the group is poised to infiltrate the U.S. and other nations.
'Unfortunately, despite all our progress against ISIL on the battlefield and in the financial realm, our efforts have not reduced the group's terrorism capability and global reach,' Brennan said during a rare open hearing of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
'In fact, as the pressure mounts on ISIL, we judge that it will intensify its global terror campaign to maintain its dominance of the global terrorism agenda.'
ISIL, not ISIS, is the Obama administration's preferred acronym for the jihadi army that controls large swaths of Iraq and Syria, and is developing a foothold in Libya.
'ISIL has a large cadre of Western fighters who could potentially serve as operatives for attacks in the West,' Brennan said, cautioning that flows of refugees and ordinary travel paths could hide smuggled jihadis in plain sight.
The group is 'training and attempting to deploy operatives for further attacks' in western countries, he predicted.
President Barack Obama claimed on Tuesday that his military campaign against the self-proclaimed Islamic caliph**e 'is firing on all cylinders.'
'ISIL is under more pressure than ever before,' he said, as the group 'continues to lose key leaders,' 'continues to lose ground in Iraq,' 'continues to lose ground in Syria' and 'continues to lose the money that is its lifeblood.
'We continue to destroy ISIL militarily,' Obama claimed.
But Brennan said the group has compensated for its losses of 1,000 to 3,000 militants in Iraq and Syria by recruiting and placing between 5,000 and 8,000 fighters in Libya.
'I am concerned about the growth of Libya as another area that could serve as the basis for ISIL to carry out attacks inside of Europe. ... That is very concerning,' he said.
