War on terror/ Military action against IGIL

A new poll from CNN/ORC shows 57 percent of Americans do not approve of the way President Barack Obama is handling the country’s military action against ISIL.

Forty percent said they approved of Obama’s efforts and 4 percent had no opinion. The poll, which was released Monday, shows a slightly lower approval than a September poll, where 49 percent of Americans polled approved of how Obama was responding to the terrorist organization.

Since the September poll was released, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant has burned a Jordanian pilot alive in a cage, carried out attacks on a satirical newspaper and kosher Jewish supermarket in Paris, and been held responsible for the death of American aid worker Kayla Mueller. It has also expanded its reach with new factions showing up in Libya and Yemen.
