Pentagon Refuses to Back Egyptian Bombing Of ISIS In Libya After Christian Slaughter

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration refuses to back Egypt’s attacks against the Islamic State (ISIS, ISIL), which were launched after the jihadist group savagely beheaded 21 Egyptian Christians.
On Wednesday, a reporter asked Rear Adm. John Kirby, the outgoing Pentagon press secretary, “Do you support Egypt’s right to bomb ISIS targets  in the wake of the Christian Coptics being killed?”
“We aren’t taking a position here in the Pentagon on these recent strikes by Egypt…we weren’t notified ahead of time. We didn’t participate or support them in any way, and we’re not taking a position on it,” said the press secretary in responding.
“We are neither condemning nor condoning” the Egyptian attacks against ISIS, an anonymous Obama administration official told The Daily Beast.
