Barack Obama actually said...

It will be the responsibility of Iraqis to secure their own country and take the fight to ISIL on the ground in their own country.

We will take action on the Syrian side of the border to degrade ISIL.

We believe that this will have to be a sustained effort.

But in one of our darkest moments, we summoned strength and courage, and out of horrible devastation emerged the best of our humanity.
