James A. Baker III, who served as secretary of state under President George H.W. Bush, took issue this morning with President Obama’s strategy for “defeating and ultimately destroying” ISIS terrorists in Iraq and Syria. Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Baker said that when the United States built a coalition in 1991 to push Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s forces out of Kuwait, “we had 500,000 U.S. troops on the ground, we had a specific goal within a limited time frame … and America was respected by its allies and feared by its enemies.” Baker added: “We’re not there anymore.” Watch the video for the full interview.
