Obama tells fearful Americans Islamic State will be destroyed
President Barack Obama vowed Sunday that America would destroy the Islamic State group and hunt down its followers at home or abroad, in a rare address from the Oval Office to a jittery nation. Facing questions about his leadership and strategy, Obama harnessed the highest trappings of US power to calm a country rattled by a rampage in California that killed 14 people. "After so much war, many Americans are asking whether we are confronted by a cancer that has no immediate cure," Obama said in a solemn speech, adding that the San Bernardino massacre was evidence of an
evolving" and increasingly homegrown threat. As a father of two daughters, Obama said, he could imagine himself or his kin in San Bernardino or in Paris, where scores of people were killed last month in attacks claimed by Islamic State. "Here's what I want you to know," he said. "The threat from terrorism is real, but we will overcome it. We will destroy ISIL and any other organization that tries to harm us," he said. "Our military will continue to hunt down terrorist plotters in any country where it is necessary." Obama urged Muslims in America and around the world to "decisively and unequivocally reject the hateful ideology that groups like ISIL and Al-Qaida promote."
