As ISIS wreaks havoc in Europe, President Obama spent Monday staring down smaller adversaries: children.

During the annual White House Easter Egg Roll, Obama asked the kids, “Who can look at me without blinking?”

First Lady Michelle Obama added, “No blinking… It’s like you’re hypnotized.”

After about ten seconds, Obama blinked and said, “I couldn’t take it.” (‘A LOT ON MY PLATE’ — Obama Says ISIS Isn’t ‘An Existential Threat’)

Michelle commented, “It’s hard.”

Last week, at least 35 people were killed and 300 wounded in a terrorist attack in Brussels. This past Friday, at least 25 people were killed and 90 people wounded in a suicide bombing in Iraq. And on Easter Sunday, the Taliban targeted Christians in Pakistan and claimed credit for killing at least 69 people while injuring more than 341.
