Obama's IS Strategy Gets Mixed US Reaction 奧巴馬打擊IS戰(zhàn)略引起各種反應(yīng)
President Barack Obama's proposed strategy for an expanded U.S. military effort against Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria has drawn a mixed reaction from congressional lawmakers.
Obama announced his plan late Wednesday in a nationally televised speech and urged Congress to support the mission against the group, which had previously been known as ISIL or ISIS.
周三晚些時(shí)候，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)在全國(guó)電視講話中宣布了自己的計(jì)劃，敦促國(guó)會(huì)支持打擊此前被稱為ISIL的激進(jìn)組織。
Republican Ed Royce, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told VOA he and many other Republicans believe the president waited too long to take action.
眾議院外交事務(wù)委員會(huì)主席，共和黨議員羅伊斯(Ed Royce)告訴VOA，他和許多其他共和黨人相信，總統(tǒng)為采取行動(dòng)已經(jīng)等待得太久了。
"The unfortunate thing is that in waiting for the last seven months, ISIL has been able to get their hands not only the weapons, but also on the cash, taken from the Central Bank in Mosul, by robbing a lot of other banks along the way," Royce said. "So they have become a bigger challenge, a bigger threat because now they have resources which al-Qaida never had, the types of resources that this al-Qaida affiliate, offshoot has at its disposal.”
“不幸的是，在過去七個(gè)月的等待中，ISIL不僅獲得了武器，還從摩蘇爾中央銀行獲得了現(xiàn)金，沿途還搶劫了許多其他銀行?！绷_伊斯說?！八裕麄円呀?jīng)成為更大的挑戰(zhàn)，更大的威脅?！?BR> New York Democrat Eliot Engel told VOA President Obama gave a "very compelling" argument for going after the Islamic State.
紐約民主黨議員恩格爾(Eliot Engel)告訴VOA，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)為打擊伊斯蘭國(guó)做出了非常有說服力的辯解。
"Certainly it's in the American national interest to destroy ISIS," Engel said, "because just the way the Taliban plotted and planned with al-Qaida, plotted and planned from Afghanistan, and headed the worst terrorist attack delivered in the United States, if we don’t disrupt and dismantle and destroy ISIS, they will also use Iraq and Syria as a no man's land [a safe haven] to plot terrorist attacks against the United States' homeland and our allies."
“如果我們不打擊，瓦解和搗毀ISIS，他們將把伊拉克和敘利亞作為無人區(qū)，對(duì)美國(guó)本土和我們的盟國(guó)發(fā)動(dòng)恐怖主義襲擊?！?BR> Threat posed by Islamic State militants Tennessee Republican Marsha Blackburn told VOA she is glad the president is realizing the threat of the Islamic State group. But Blackburn said she would have liked him to give more details about his strategy for combating the group, such as those related to the international coalition.
田納西州共和黨議員馬莎·布拉克伯恩(Marsha Blackburn)告訴VOA，她很高興總統(tǒng)終于意識(shí)到伊斯蘭國(guó)激進(jìn)組織的威脅。但是她希望奧巴馬總統(tǒng)能夠披露打擊該組織戰(zhàn)略的更多細(xì)節(jié)，例如與國(guó)際聯(lián)盟有關(guān)的部分。
"When he talks about following the strategy that they used in Somalia and Yemen, that hasn’t yielded the results that we would like to see, that’s gone on for several years now," Blackburn said.
“當(dāng)他談到在索馬里和也門使用的戰(zhàn)略的時(shí)候，并沒有產(chǎn)生我們希望看到的結(jié)果，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)持續(xù)了幾年的時(shí)間?！辈祭瞬鞅硎尽?BR> "AQ/AP [Al Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula] in Yemen is the strongest of the al-Qaida affiliates.

“也門的阿拉伯半島基地組織是基地組織附屬機(jī)構(gòu)中勢(shì)力大的。我們需要更加強(qiáng)勢(shì)，確信我們能擊敗ISIS?！彼硎?。
The White House said Obama has told congressional leaders he can expand military operations against the Islamic State group without the approval of U.S. lawmakers.However, Obama must go to Congress to gain the increased military aid for moderate Syrian rebels that he called for in his speech Wednesday.
白宮表示，奧巴馬告訴國(guó)會(huì)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人，他可以在不經(jīng)美國(guó)立法者批準(zhǔn)的情況下拓展打擊伊斯蘭國(guó)激進(jìn)組織的軍事行動(dòng)。然而，奧巴馬必須前往國(guó)會(huì)，才能獲得他在周三的講話中要求的增加敘利亞溫和派叛軍的軍事援助。
Royce said Congress will vote "overwhelmingly" to support the rebels, who are fighting both ISIL and the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
羅伊斯表示，國(guó)會(huì)將壓倒性地投票支持打擊ISIL和敘利亞阿薩德總統(tǒng)政權(quán)的叛軍。
Republican House Speaker Boehner said he believes Congress should give the president what he asked for - the authority to train Syrian rebels. But he said a lot of members are skeptical that the strategy Obama laid out Wednesday night will be enough to defeat the Islamic State.
"An F16 is not a strategy, and airstrikes alone will not accomplish what we are trying to accomplish,” Boehner said. “The president has made it clear he does not want U.S. boots on the ground, well somebody's boots have to be on the ground."
