>Advisers recall that Obama would cite a pivotal moment in The Dark Knight, the 2008 Batman movie, to help explain not only how he understood the role of isis, but how he understood the larger ecosystem in which it grew. “There’s a scene in the beginning in which the gang leaders of Gotham are meeting,” the president would say. “These are men who had the city divided up. They were thugs, but there was a kind of order. Everyone had his turf. And then the Joker comes in and lights the whole city on fire. isil is the Joker. It has the capacity to set the whole region on fire. That’s why we have to fight it.”
Was he right, /tv/?

If the next president can't mend ties with russia and get a grip on ISIS then Obama will probably be remembered as even worse

what a fucking pleb
>>67258368
>Godfather I & II
>No III
>>67258403
That's a pleb playing it safe and listing patrician movies that he knows people won't judge him for
>>67258403
Could be worse- those are all great films(with the possible exception of Godfather 2). He didn't list Shawshank or Forrest Gump.
I mean, it's not patrician taste, but it's not braindead either.

It's an inherently flawed cinematique experience, anon.

They were little guys, but they had a flight plan. Everyone had a lot of loyalty. And then the Big Guy comes in and crashes the plane with no survivors. ISIL is the Big Guy. It has the capacity to crash the whole region with no survivors. That’s why we have to fight it.”

I think Reagan's legacy has kind of been rewritten by people backlashing against the equally retarded conservatives who deified him as a neocon god after he died.

Bush II, Carter, Ford, Hoover, Harding.....and that's jut in the last 100 years. Some of our pre-McKinley guys were laughable.
>>67260502
*that's just
>>67257625
This nigga directly implying the USA's standing policy of propping up small-time criminal organizations.
Not that we aren't funding ISIS as well.
>>67257625
uhhh, you don't get to bring free riders
>not only how he understood the role of isis, but how he understood the larger ecosystem in which it grew
If he did he wouldn't have tried to destabilize Syria, YET DESTABILIZING ANOTHER MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRY
