I do not think there is a more feeble leader in the world right now than President Obama. A second Islamic State beheading video of an American journalist was released this week, and in it “Jihadi John” called Mr. Obama out for “arrogant foreign policies.” Mr. Obama’s answer to the beheading? Deploying 350 troops to Iraq. That’s all.

Mr. Obama has known about the Islamic State threat for a year and has not acted. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister David Cameron has seized passports of suspected Islamic State terrorists. I guess our president is too busy on the links to show concern for the safety of our nation.

As a high-school student, I am extremely worried about incoming terrorist attacks in the United States.
