Al-Qaeda Jihadis Loot Over $400 Million From Mosul Central Bank, Seize Saddam's Hometown
As reported yesterday, in yet another humiliating blow to US foreign policy and the State Department, Al Qaeda-linked ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham) militants took over the key northern town of Mosul, where an unknown number of US-made Black Hawk helicopters were parked and have been captured by Al Qaeda (potentially the same forces that have been trained by the US across the border in Syria).
Adding insult to injury the Al Qaeda militants also appear to have looted some $429 million from local banks. From IBtimes:
The Islamic State of Iraq and al-Shams (Isis) has become the richest terror group ever after looting 500 billion Iraqi dinars - the equivalent of $429m (£256m) - from Mosul's central bank, according to the regional governor.
Nineveh governor Atheel al-Nujaifi confirmed Kurdish televison reports that Isis militants had stolen millions from numerous banks across Mosul. A large quantity of gold bullion is also believed to have been stolen.
Following the siege of the country's second city, the bounty collected by the group has left it richer than al-Qaeda itself and as wealthy as small nations such as Tonga, Kiribati, the Marshall Islands and the Falkland Islands.
The financial assets that Isis now possess are likely to worsen the Iraqi governement's struggle to defeat the insurgency, which is aimed at creating an Islamic state across the Syrian-Iraqi border.
In other words, now that it is armed with US-made weapons, this particular al-Qaeda group also happens to be the world's richest terror force!
And so with all disposable cash it needs for a long time and armed to the teeth, what is Al Qaeda to do? Why continue expanding of course. Moments ago, via Reuters, we got confirmation that the "insurgents" have just captured yet another symbolic Iraqi town, Tikrit: the birthplace of none other than Saddam.
Sunni insurgents overran parts of the Iraqi city of Tikrit on Wednesday, security sources said.
Tikrit, which is located 150 km (95 miles) north of Baghdad, is the hometown of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein
And on the map:
Will they stop here? Of course not. Expect the ISIS force to continue south until finally it overruns Baghdad itself and until all of Iraq, courtesy of a crippled army, officially belongs to Al Qaeda. America's job is done here.
One can't wait until Al Qaeda is also in charge of all the other countries recently liberated by the US and/or CIA.

If these guys are not being run by CIA, I want my tax dollars back ...
I'm confused, is this the good Al-Qaeda or the bad Al-Qaeda?
Just nuke em all this time and git'er done!
Let's turn that place into a big desert! Oh, wait.
The only time Biden was right was when he proposed splitting up the Shia, Sunni, and Kurds.
Now, if only we could convince them to attack Washington....
Obama and Hillary own this.
Was that a $ .4 billion in US cash they got?
<== I've researched Odet Yinon and think this is going by his playbook
<== I haven't researched Odet Yinon and think this is some accidental clusterfuck
I wonder how all those Iraqi Dinar "investments" are going to turn out??? LOL...
For these guys, good. Steal them and spend them into the system. Terrorists or central bankers, you decide?
As for ISIL, ISIS, DASH or whatever name the turds want to go by, here is an interesting take on ISIS vs. Taliban by a guy who follows a site I follow closely, syrianperspective.com
http://radioyaran.com/2014/06/10/is-isis-the-taliban-of-this-decade/
Much like the Taliban, these guys are funded by virulent saudi and gulf state money, walk the same line, aren't interested in finding a voice, sharing power, or much else. They rule and won't have any issue executing anyone man woman or child who not only opposes them, but is merely different.
>> are funded by virulent saudi and gulf state money,
Heaven forbid we should drastically cut our energy guzzling ways and starve those fuckers. Nahh, that would take some self sacrifice.
NO PROBLEM. The Gold is already in Chaina...
USG is the richest terrorist organization.
so iraq is like the movie swordfish but in reverse.
The Iraqi insurgency will pay for itself.....apparently...
Amazing what you can do with no MIC in the way...
Looting!
one more example of why it's better for a central bank to hold no precious metals!
American Made! We make some damn good shit when we want to!
Interesting tidbit: The word MUSLIM derives from the town of Mosul. Mosulman (or variants thereof), being the original word.
Just think about the huge amounts of money that were spent on the war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Think about the human lives that were lost.
Think about the trampled freedoms of people the world over, the USA especially.
Think about the huge sums of money for bailouts of the perpetrators of all this madness.
Think about it and weep...
The fall of Mosul is but a marker on the road to destruction the world is currently on with no end in sight.
Think about it and weep...
DaddyO
If the world can survive the Black Plague, it can survive all this shit.
There is a reason the phoenix rising from the ashes is such a widespread 'myth'.
This is nothing to lose your head over. Oh wait...

"Whew, I'm glad we're all safe here in the Green Zone....."
'Wait a sec...did you hear that?"
I'm calling BS. No one goes into the Central Bank of Mosul and walks out with $400 million without losing an eye, an ear, or maybe a finger. Nowhere is it mentioned that anyone lost a body part so until I see that, I'm not buying it.
And by the way, how does one steal $400 million and get to keep it?
Stupid question time......... who is Al-Qaeda?
Far-right extremists...
Look around the world ,,this is WWIII,, just nobody has flipped a nuke yet!!! Give it time.
I guess all the drones are off attacking wedding parties elsewhere in the world.
Which explains why these dudes can prance around in the desert and seize oil refineries, gold, and weapons stocks and nothing happens to them. No death from above?
Maybe they have a tactical secret and have outlawed weddings?
Or perhaps USSA foreign policy is so convoluted that even the USSA cannot figure it out?
This is just payback 'cause USA Oil Companies got very few contracts in the "New" Iraq.
Do you need us now????
Interesting point of view from one of Canadian Dirt's links:
Even Z. Brzezinski, not known for his sympathies toward Russia, states that the threat of an explosion in the Middle East, and in Syria in particular, means that the U.S. needs to work closely with Russia and China “to some extent more than...[with] Britain or France”. And cold war paladin Brzezinski knows what he's talking about here.
http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/2013/december/13/sinister-fruits-of-the-wests-alliance-with-jihad-warriors-in-syria.aspx
US companies were not supposed to, the contracts went to BP .... London wins again, bow before your master

Or maybe, just maybe, they're not really 'enemies"...and USG is happy they're doing what they're doing.
I still want to know, what currency did they get $400M of? Iraq-bux? Might be like the guys showing up at the US Embassy in 1975 with suitcases full of South Vietnamese currency...
"Conquest is easy, control is not!" - Capt. James T Kirk (Star Trek)
Hence the Imperial Coat of Arms (of the Byzantines, Holy Roman Empire, Russian Empire) representing the bicephelous eagle.
One head represents the military, conquest.
The other represents the Church, administration.
Looking at it another way, if any country is in need of some freedom bombing, it is the saudis. Get rid of the government and leave the resources. Worked for several other countries.
Yea! Worked hella good in....Iraq....
Al CIADA showed up AFTER the war started and only exist because of Saudi money and CIA training.
Hella uncomfortable notion to roll around between the ears. If you bomb the saudis back to the stone age and have the deep state stop training these guys, the problem withers on its own.
One of your links uptop indicates that this group is 20,000 strong and growing quickly.
Feeding 20,000 fighters on a daily basis requires a significant logistics effort. Simply providing the required daily water ration to a force this size living in the desert requires both a large logistics train and a secure source of supply in a land where water is a scarce commodity.
Hard to belleve this activity takes place and no one knows anything about it.
Guess NSA needs to do some Tailored Access Operations on the local camel fleet.
@Sushi
well, I'm sure obama will be more than fucking happy to send his terrorist brothers as much "aid and comfort" as they need to get them through those tough desert nights without going hungry or thirsty.
He'll probabaly set up the EBT foodstamp system in Mosul so they can all buy our food and water and charge it back to the American tax payers.
lol mr dirtlump you point out an amusing irony that the american paid and bush supported saudis bankrolled this whole terrorist program and despite the saudis propaganda efforts the truth is biting them in the ass.
the whole thing is fucked. Al quaeda ( or the like ) used weapons they got from the US in Syria to fight Assad to go to mosul and fight the U sbacked regime then stole money and US weapons to go back to syria and fight for the US with again.
I haven't researched "Odet Yinon" yet. Care to give a brief explanation of what you're suggesting before I spend the next 3 hours at work googling this?
Israeli Playbook, circa 1982.
"The plan operates on two essential premises. To survive, Israel must 1) become an imperial regional power, and 2) must effect the division of the whole area into small states by the dissolution of all existing Arab states. Small here will depend on the ethnic or sectarian composition of each state. Consequently, the Zionist hope is that sectarian-based states become Israel’s satellites and, ironically, its source of moral legitimation."
excerpt from http://www.globalresearch.ca/greater-israel-the-zionist-plan-for-the-mid...
Basically... as Israel, would you rather be surrounded by i) nation states that hate you, with the resources of nation states to impinge on your actions, or ii) squabbling, chaotic Islamic Bantustans, whose 'leaders' you can a) bribe with tactical weaponry and the occasional tidbit of intel, or b) occasionally crush with utter impunity if they look like they're getting bit uppity?
the real problem with the plan is that, when it fails, and all the people around you realize how evil you are, you have a serious situation... especially if your sugar daddy and bully muscle is collapsing and broke from fighting your wars.
I think the people around them already have a very good idea of just how evil they are. And maybe they're as confident of the US retaining Hegemon status as most of the US elite seem to be.
And they probably think they can keep the Shiites and Sunnis at each others' throats for centuries. And why not? The latter have hated each other since long before the Zionists started to get their act together.
The real wild card would be if one of the 'terrorist' groups gets hold of a nuke or two and is genuinely not a CIA/Mossad proxy. But then, as Iran pointed out, why would Muslims want to nuke Palestine when it's their third most holy site, and home to millions of Muslims whom they already see as victims of infidel aggression?
Diaspora and thermonuclear weapons. They can't lose. As much as that idea is unpopular here... Masada will not fall again.
Amen to that. The paid autodidact.
It's Oded.
I haven't read it, but it's some supposed Zionist master plan. My guess is that it's probably fringe bullshit peddled as mainstream thought.
It seems to have alot more veracity than does say something like the protocols of zion, and the idea that the over arching US policy as dictated by a set of people with specific phenotypes and dietary requirements involves smashing up any nation of strength in the middle east is hardly a stretch.
Fringe or mainstream...
Because thats how I decide what I believe...
When do they light up the oil fields.....
Ah. Now that would be foolish. We will take over the fields and then one day sell it back to them at a "bargain."
Article states Iraqi Dinars, but I don't know if that's the Iraqi equivalent of the US dollars they got or not. They also grabbed gold bullion. Lots of cash for purchase of weaponry on the open market. They are really set to go now.

Why split them up? Put them together and encourage them to kill each other.

We supplied these people with money, vehicles, tanks and helicopters. All they need is nukes.
Our young kids die to play these banksters high profit war games. What a country.
we only care about our kids when we ship them overseas to fight for our flag-waving agenda.
When they're actually here, they can fuck off.
"Our young kids die to play these banksters high profit war games. What a country."
I believe it is time to draft the politicos and the banksters and send them to the hot zone where they can explain the benefits of democracy and the benfits of banking.
Nuke them from space, it's the only way to be sure.
If they just blow Mosul dam, they achieve the same but can maintain plausible deniability and blame it (both the humanitarian disaster and their demand for mo' money) on those fundamentalist terrorists...
"I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure"
No worries ....The Sunni is a small minority and will be over run by the Shiite majority. This isn't really a big deal but it will result in a stronger, more professional Iraqi army at the end of the day. i am sure Iran would be eager to help erase this nonsense as well.
why waste a perfectly good warhead? when we can get these people to all kill each other for far less cost and without the risk of radiation
Are they investors in "Five Guys"? Killary Clinton wants to know.

This is the good Al-Qaeda which we trained and support to overthrow Assad.
The bad Al-Qaeda is supposedly the one we are fighting but they are on holiday at the moment.

May I have your attention please.
Iraq pumps 3.2 million bpd of Brent equivalent $110/barrel good stuff. 20% of that comes out of the north.
Nothing else matters. Keep your eye on the ball.
If it stops, $150/barrel. And it all falls apart.
That is all.
Thank you for your attention.

Exactly. I'm relieved that someone else in here understands the implications of this.
How crazy huge is the American Embassy compound in Iraq again? People don't build whole fucking cities just to up and abandon them when the paint is dry; everyone knew the US was gonna be there. Fer Christ sake: McCain talked openly about a hundred year occupation of Iraq at one point.
How soon before the roll out of the full on American Troop Surge 2.0 or a mixed 'US Peace Keeper' and/or U.N./mercenary/proxy force is the next question We should probably be asking.

Fear not.
Dear Leader will hasten to send Al-Mucki billions of non-lethal aid...
And Obaba's Syrian freedom fighters will be handily ousted from Iraq.
BTW, could part of the Iraqi military/police reluctance to stand and fight be due to lack of liking for Al-Mucki?
They did not want to die for S.H. who was a corrupt tyrant.
Maybe they do not want to die for Al-Muki who is a corrupt....
After all, would you want to fight to the death to keep Dear Leader in power?
Motivation makes a huge difference in warfare.
Did you see Kim Kardashian's wedding pictures???
"Did you see Kim Kardashian's wedding pictures???"
Forgive me for being a rube, but what does Kim Kardashian actually DO that justifies the Press from panting over her where ever she goes and having photo orgasms when she goes shopping, eats at a restaurant, buys shoes, etc?
I see her in the news a lot but am clueless as to K.K.'s value to society.
She has a big ass, and she was in a sextape once (that is amazingly harder to find than it was when she was undergoing transition from nobody to 'celebrity'). I think she is supposed to represent some sort of Hollywood ideal, how someone can 'rise from nothing by their own merits'. Is it the truth? Of course not.
A perfect example of the 'fame machine'. If they 'make' you, they can 'break' you.
"I see her ( Kardashian ) in the news a lot but am clueless as to K.K.'s value to society."
The American Dream has been supplanted by the audacious HOPE that any loser with enough chutzpah and moral deficiency can suck and jive their way into celebrity, money, and a highly publicized but short lived marriage to a similarly lucky, physically and morally endowed and/or avaricious entertainer/entrepreneur/grifter.
The media loves this meme. It's long form advertisement for 'lifestyle' and 'culture' ( the lack thereof to more or less ) -and sells stuff.
In short: HOPE still exists that if enough cock is smoked one can enjoy 'the good life' and flaunt their 'success' to all those that didn't swallow hard enough.

One way to arm the Al CIADA in Syria is by letting them get their hands on all that US equipment in Mosul, and the cash in the banks. Al maliki waliki whatever his name is, was not playing fully the USA game since he was letting Iran get through to help Syria by flying troops and equipment through Iraq air space. They told him to stop it and he didnt. So the USA is now supporting the old Baaathists again rebranded as ISLISLISL whatever 'what difference does it make'
Dude the Middle East is one easy place to set fire to. These mofos are so easily played.
And when this group doesn't play the US game, then what? A global empire of mercs and proxies? Nothing will help. Nothing will halt the decline.
Just concentrate on minimizing your personal bag holder potential.
A lot easier and more effective than shipping a few small arms through an American mission somewhere in, oh, say, northeast Libya.
good thinking there.
Its difficult to know whats going on but thats defenitly not something you´re gonna read in "news" anytime soon.
The only thing not accounted for is the "embarrassment" factor to the D.C. Establishment...Makes further warmongering.politically dicey when even the most "Dancing" bedazzled Amerikan says "wtf?!? We just akomplished that place!!"
"These mofos are so easily played."
To a certain point. They hate the US and it's policies. When dealing with devil these people in Washingto sold their souls.
They'll be back in the US to kill even more powerful and better armed.
First thing I thought was "How incompetent". Then I thought, what if this was just an easy way to "send funding" to a group, or to launder money. Who were the acct holders in those banks in Mosul?
I also think you could have the keys to a helicopter, doesn't mean you can fly it. I'd assume (since we assign such mythic powers to our spy agencies) that said Blackhawks could be easily identified on some kind of tracking system.
In other words, I am assigning to malice what would normally be credited to stupidity. It seems like way too big a score to be dumb luck.

AlQaida = Shmaida

There was no "AlQaida" in Iraq before the US invaded Iraq.
Maybe invading and militarily occupying a country makes enemies.
Maybe setting up a puppet government to facilitate the theft of resources makes enemies.
Maybe it is mainly the Saudis, the CIA, and Mossad that teach, practice, and promote extremism and terrorism.
Maybe “our” side is the principal cause of all this mayhem, and ought just stop promoting conflict by invasions, backing unsavory and extremist puppets, and practicing the terrorism of bombings, drone assassinations, and torture.
But no, wait, let us be arrogant and stupid, and pretend our oligarchs are not robbing them blind,
or doing anything wrong,
and that they only resist “our” puppet governments and occupation forces because we are so incredibly "good",
and they are so incredibly "bad" not to submit.
Putting a religious minority in charge of the religious majority never lasts long without conflict.
Like putting Jews in charge of Catholics, Baptists, and Prebyterians... Oh wait...

President George W. Bush Says "Bring 'em on"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKdbZWNqF00
Sadly, though, he was right. BP and China Oil are now pumping Iraq oil (Saddam refused to use anyone but his own companies), and the MIC and bankers made trillions. That was the mission, and it was accomplished.
You mean 6 trillion dollars later and all we got were some Chimpy mc Chimpy smirks, a landing on an air craft carrier landing and some shock and awe memories.
YAH!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMIiZX8kwwc
The mission was accomplished. The status of the petro-dollar was preserved, if only for a short while longer.
Absolutely right. That is the point that people miss. Libya and Iraq was about the continued transacting of oil in US dollars, plain and simple.
This is correct. Nearly all other posts regarding al-CIA dah or whatever are superfelous to this fact.
So is AL CIADA going to carry on fighting in Syria for America or are they going to turn round and say, lets take Iraq back and take control of all the oil production and and other resorces and fuck America over , if I had been shot and raped by America for 10+ years it would be time to hire some mercs (us trained of course to fly the helos and to maintain hmvees with crows systems) and go fuck America , just saying.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume we delivered all that oil to China, below cost. Cause that's how we roll.
Pat Buchanan opposed the Iraq war from the beginning and was one of the few who did, at that time. He was right.
Pat Buchanan is a true conservative. The Republicrats blackballed him.
he also objects to the un-naturally cozy relationship (master/slave) between Israel and the U.S...
Pat is also the queen's cousin. You have to have a few of them who sound like they are not nuts.
The Bush regime lied and fabricated "evidence" that was used to deceive Congress, the American people, and the United Nations.
At the time that these absurd claims were being made, only experts knew that they were false but today everyone knows that the claims were lies.
I wonder why everyone has forgotten how much hate FRANCE got for NOT wanting to contribute in the Irak war.
The whole dumbass "LIBERTY FRIES" , the “cheese-eating surrender MONKEYS” things – all kind of silly jokes still continuing, even in ZH …. Five years of Anti-French slander and vilification was thus thrust by the White House, the administration, members of Congress, governors and by lackeys in the media (like Fox News or Murdoch Press). Remember American TV news showing proud Americans pouring French wines in the gutter.
Remember also Dr. David Kelly (biological warfare expert and former UN weapons inspector in Iraq) and his ultimately suicide/murder ! What if Iraq were invaded ? Kelly replied, “I’ll probably be found dead in the woods...”
May all Americans remember what they did, and how it speaks volumes about how are treated dissent, opinion and opposition.

Mission accomplished.
So they saying that some gold was stolen, but was the rest in cash notes? Stealing digits seems implausible.
mission accomplished = hope and change = forward (common core vocabulary)
lets just carpet bomb the entire country.....kill them terririssts and make some room for new factory orders for more bombs!!!!!
MISHUN AKOMPLISHED!
The Mission is to get the place fighting and destabilized. Same thing in Syria and Ukraine. Its like we are setting fire to the whole world but expect to be nice and safe since we have two oceans worth of water to keep us fireproof.
I wonder what the bushchimp is painting now? Maybe Dante's inferno?
bushchimp would be Zero. He's painting a view of a tee from his favorite golf course.
Perhaps next thing Al Qaeda finds are all those WMDs US military failed to. Hilarity ensues (c)
Umm looks like they will have enough cash and weapons to keep up the fight to destroy Syria,you would almost think it was a planned move.
Who knew the bathist would take over when the US left?
Can't blame anyone for not seeing this happen'n

The war in the middle east isn't over, it's just starting. Just because Osama bin Laden is dead means nothing. Look into the details.
