It was revealed on September 22 that Barack Obama’s hand-picked ISIS Czar, disgraced Gen. John Allen, will be leaving his post in the coming weeks. The information was transmitted to the Bloomberg View from four separate administration officials who said that the White House was not ready to announce Allen’s resignation officially but that the twice disgraced General would be stepping down in early November.
Karin Von Hippel, Allen’s Chief Of Staff, will also be resigning according to reports.
ISIS Czar Allen’s reputation has been marred by controversy and scandal as well as an attempt to push the United States into further direct military involvement in Syria, particularly against the one fighting force that actually opposed ISIS – i.e. the Syrian government.
After assuming command of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, Allen was swept up in the David Petreaus/Paul Broadwell scandal where his own communications with Jill Kelley, a Lebanese-American socialite who possibly had connections to rival factions of the intelligence community networks. Allen “resigned” from his command and retired from the military after the scandal but he was brought back by Obama not even a year later when he was named as the Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition Against ISIL, also known as Obama’s ISIS Czar.
