Fiorina: We Need to Stand Behind Our Allies to Defeat ISIS

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

GEIST: "Carly, it's Willie Geist. We were talking about your performance in New Hampshire. One of the criticisms you'll hear not just you but governors as well who run states say what do they know about foreign policy? So I'd ask you, what would you do to defeat ISIS and president Obama and the United States government is not doing now?"

FIORINA: "Well, President Obama always presents the world and Americans with the false choice. Go to war, do what I'm not doing. I know more world leaders on the stage today than anyone running with the possible exception of Hillary Clinton. Only I don't photo ops. I understand this is their fight. ISIS is their fight. They want to see leadership and support and resolve from the United States. So I would hold a campaign summit immediately. Not to talk our Arab allies into a bad deal with Iran but to say what do you need from us? And specifically they asked for very clear things for us. King Abdullah asked for bombs and material. So he's going to China. The kurds asked us to arm them for three years, we haven't done ifrment the Egyptians asked us to share intelligence. Saudis, Egyptians, kurds, Jordanians are all fighting ISIS on the ground as we speak. The Kuwaitis, the emirates know this is their fight. Do we need more special forces? Yes. Do we need bombing runs that are more effective? Yes. But what we need first and foremost is to stand behind our allies, give them what they have asked us for and let them fight this fi. It's important to remember they have lost more citizens at the hand of ISIS than anyone else."
