Robert Reich: A Few Hundred People Joining ISIS Not Really a ‘Big Deal’
In the grand scheme of things, a few hundred people joining up with Islamic State forces is “not a big deal,” economist Robert Reich said Friday evening on Comedy Central’s The Nightly Show.
“We’ve covered it during the headline of all these westerners joining ISIS. I don’t understand that,” host Larry Wilmore said to his panel. “You know, we have the teen girls and all this. Why are people trying to join ISIS? What’s going on?”
And Reich’s explanation:
I think that there are not that many trying to join ISIS and you say all these European, all these Americans. Out of 600 million Europeans and Americans you’ve got, what, 400, 800 trying to join ISIS? This is not a big deal. The press is making it a big deal and the more we talk about it, the more people are gonna go.
Wild Thing’s comment………..
For even one American to join ISIS is a big deal. Reich worked for Cater and then Clinton, he is a far leftie big time.
Reich is a jerk worshiped by the liberal left.
