No, this is not a “headline” from the Onion, but rather the stark “reality” of the parallel universe the once “hard-edge” Fox News has slowly “descended” into.
Former State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf, who earned her “15 minutes of fame” by publicly claiming the best way to defeat ISIS “was not to bomb them but to hire them,” has signed on to be a Fox News contributor.
“Harf will join the network effective immediately, and will make her first appearance on the network at 7 p.m. during Fox News’ “The First Hundred Days” with Martha MacCallum. Harf will also serve as a contributor to Fox Business Network.
Harf, who was most recently a senior communications officer to former Secretary of State John Kerry, has spent the last several years as a communications strategist in the Obama administration.”
We are not making this up. Fox News, presumably in the interests of being “fair and balanced,” has hired an Obama administration “sock puppet” who spread the false “narrative” that ISIS was not a “virulent and existential threat, but rather just another community that needed organizing.”
She “pushed” the Obama administration line that “terrorism” was just a reaction to “climate change and the lack of jobs.”
Not long ago, Harf opined on MSNBC’s “Hardball” that the “rise” of terrorist groups like ISIS could be “prevented” by a good jobs program.
“On Hardball with Chris Matthews, Marie Harf stopped by to argue that the solution to defeating the Islamic State is finding economic opportunity for young Muslim men, because “we cannot kill our way out of this war.” Harf’s appearance came after a weekend that saw 21 Coptic Christians beheaded and a gunman open fire at a free-speech debate in Copenhagen.
While Harf assured viewers that “a lot” of Islamic State fighters have been killed, she also claimed that force isn’t the most effective strategy for combating ISIS. “We cannot win this war by killing them — we cannot kill our way out of this war,” she said. Instead, she argued that the United States and its allies need to focus on the “root causes,” such as the lack of job opportunities for young Muslims. She said discouraged 17-year-olds opt to “pick up an AK-47 instead of trying to start a business” due to their socioeconomic situation.”
What makes a 17-year-old “Jihadi” pick up an AK-47 if not the “lack of summer jobs?” It is the desire of radical “Islamic” terrorists to deny women like Marie Harf their “careers and their freedom,” subjecting them to “honor killings, genital mutilation and other niceties” dictated by Sharia law. They want to “kill” us because we are not “like” them, because we are “infidels.”
And to think, “according” to Harf, that we are only a few “Wal-Marts” in Damascus and Baghdad away from “world peace” or that “solar panels” in the Sinai will make the “lion lay down with the lamb.” Who knew?
Harf served a president and a secretary of state who shared the belief that “climate change” is a root “cause” of terrorism. Obama’s “assertion” in his commencement address to cadets at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy that the “rise” of ISIS in Syria and Boko Haram in Nigeria and the “brutality” of both is somehow “linked” to climate change shows just how dangerously “detached” from reality “U.S. foreign policy” has become.
For those who wondered why “upwards” of two hundred thousand have died in Syria, Boko Haram abducts Christian schoolgirls, and ISIS “beheads and burns” people alive in its “reign of terror,” Obama placed a major part of the blame on fossil fuels and your SUV.
“I understand climate change did not cause the conflicts we see around the world, yet what we also know is that severe drought helped to create the instability in Nigeria that was exploited by the terrorist group Boko Haram. It’s now believed that drought and crop failures and high food prices helped fuel the early unrest in Syria, which descended into civil war in the heart of the Middle East.”
Believed by “whom?” Those who think Elvis Presley and Jimmy Hoffa are “alive and running a donut shop in Idaho?” There was “no violence, no beheadings, no burning people alive” during the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s and groups like ISIS and Boko Haram are “not out foraging for food.”
They are “poster” children for the evil that “lurks” in the world and that “advances as we retreat” from our global “responsibilities” and indulge in these “irresponsible” fantasies.
It is fairly certain that the “burning alive” of a Jordanian pilot in a cage was not caused by “rising” levels of carbon dioxide or that the beheading of Coptic Christians on a beach in Libya was “caused” by that coal plant in West Virginia.
Yet the belief that “lowering” carbon emissions and “holding” job fairs in Aleppo will stop “terrorism” is one shared by Marie Harf, now a “Fox News” contributor, paid to offer her “comical” musings as “considered” commentary or “fake news.”
