Obama on Iraq: “This Is Not Solely or Even Primarily a Military Challenge” (Video)

Barack Obama spoke out on the deteriorating situation in Iraq Friday at the White House.

“We will not be sending US troops back into combat but I had asked my national security team to prepare a range of other options that could help support Iraq security forces. And I’ll be reviewing those options in the days ahead. I do want to be clear though. This is not solely or even primarily a military challenge.”

What the hell is he talking about?

Tell that to the thousands of Iraqi prisoners captured in Tikrit this week by the ISIS.
