As mentioned in the Talking Points Memo, CIA Director John Brennan paints an ominous picture of the ISIS threat. The Factor spoke about that with Hassan Hassan, who wrote a book about ISIS. "The problem with the left in general," Hassan declared, "is that they like slogans more than policies that work, they don't have the stomach necessary to fight the kind of war that would defeat ISIS. They pulled out of Iraq and they allowed ISIS to take over two-thirds of Syria. There needs to be a campaign to defeat ISIS, but the Obama administration undersold the threat of ISIS and now they are overselling the progress being made." The Factor concurred, saying, "There is a movement on the left to downplay the ISIS threat."
