NEW YORK, Nov. 18 (UPI) -- Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump vowed he would "quickly and decisively bomb the hell out of ISIS" in a new radio ad blasting the Obama administration for its anti-terrorism policy.

One of a group of new radio ads released Wednesday for use in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, the first three primary states, features Trump blaming President Barack Obama and other world leaders for "losing the war on terrorism" and mentions the Paris attacks as the reason America "needs to get tough on radical Islamic terrorism."

In the ads, Trump also returns to his promise that he "will stop illegal immigration" by building a wall along the Mexican border. He said he would bar "hundreds of thousands" of Syrian refugees from entering the country, an issue some Christian groups have split with the GOP over.

The ads are part of a $300,000 ad buy the Trump campaign made this month. The other GOP candidates are spending far more on television ads. And though one of the ads touts the billionaire's self-funded campaign, it's not clear if the ads are paid for by donors or Trump himself. Federal filings show most of the money his campaign spent through Sept. 30 was provided by private donors giving $50 on average.

The billionaire businessman's campaign said the ads "stress the need for real change in Washington, D.C. in order to address problems created by the 'all talk, no action politicians' that have failed American's for far too long."
