Obama Plans To Fight ISIS By... Giving More Weapons To ISIS?
It appears that, in a rush to get his strategy out the door, President Obama overlooked his key "do nothing stupid" foreign policy plan.
- OBAMA SAID TO SEEK CONGRESS AUTHORITY TO ARM SYRIAN REBELS
So - to be clear - the strategy to defeat ISIS is to arm more of the same "rebels" that ultimately split off and became, well, ISIS?
Perhaps it's better if Obama sticks to his original "no strategy" plan after all... if only for the people, not so much the military-industrial complex of course.

Remember Those ‘Moderate’ Syrian Rebels That The U.S. Armed? ISIS Got Some Of Those Weapons Too
As the Syrian Civil War has waged on over the past few years, the United States, along with Arab states such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, decided to arm the Syrian rebels under the “Free Syrian Army” umbrella.
The shipments of former Yugoslavian Army weapons held by the Croatians, along with newly manufactured Croatian weapons, began in November 2012, according to The Telegraph UK. The weapons were flown out of Croatia on chartered flights to Jordan and then smuggled into Syria.
Fast forward to the rise of ISIS and their blitzkreig campaign across northern Iraq. An investigation by the arms control organization Conflict Armament Research has found that various U.S. supplied weapons have wound up in the hands of ISIS.
AFP reports:
The study by the London-based small-arms research organisation Conflict Armament Research documented weapons seized by Kurdish forces from militants in Iraq and Syria over a 10-day period in July.
The report said the jihadists disposed of “significant quantities” of US-made small arms including M16 assault rifles and included photos showing the markings “Property of US Govt”.
It also found that anti-tank rockets used by IS in Syria were “identical to M79 rockets transferred by Saudi Arabia to forces operating under the Free Syrian Army umbrella in 2013?.
The U.S.-made small arm in question is the M16A4 assault rifle. It is the main service rifle of the U.S. Marine Corps and sees limited use in the U.S. Army. More importantly, thousands of them were supplied to the Iraqi Army. The source of ISIS’s M16s, along with other U.S. made weapons, is likely captured Iraqi Army stocks.
As for the M79s, they were part of the arms shipments from Croatia that were meant for the Free Syrian Army. The weapons were either captured, or acquired by former FSA fighters as they joined ISIS.
The lesson to be learned here is that foreign policy decisions often have unintended consequences. As the U.S. contemplates what future action it will take to combat ISIS, it needs to be sure to learn those lessons of the past.

indeed it would. Americans, just say no... this is all bullshit.
this made me laugh.
But hey -- why not? There is no sport in it otherwise. I am just waiting for ISIS to have their first ceremonial Preditor Drone flyover.

"It came with rather oddly specific instructions as well! What are the chances!?"
If I didn't live in Amerka, I'd be laughing my ass off.
Just more evidence the head of the snake is DC.
What happened to the Even/Odd day bombing plan? Bomb Assad on one day then bomb Rebels the next? It worked for London traffic congestion and this is sort of a similar situation with too many targets.
Long Lockheed.
Nows We Got's US A STRATCHEDY, Bitchez !!!
Obama has a thing for the FSA I guess. Both FSAs.
yep...arming Al CIA-duh to "fight" I-CIA-SIS, sounds about par for the course with these criminal scumbag sociopaths in D.C.
Why should any of us be surprised?
The lame-stream, dinosaur, has-been media won't alert the public that both groups are the same and are funded, trained, armed and protected by the U.S. Gov and the spooky "folks" at Langley.
And if you try to tell any of the sheeple what's really up they just go into a coma and call you a conspiracy theorist and a racist for being critical of the Marxist In Chief.
Perfect situation for o-bomb-ya and the crony, crooked, psycho, scum who are running the show for their bankster overlords.
And if we try to fight them we're "domestic terrorists" and again, of course, we're all just a bunch of racists too. Can't for get that part.
He's already been arming Syrian rebels for years. The whole Benghazi mess was a gun running deal shipping Libyan guns to Syrian rebels via Turkey that went sideways on us. There is video of FSA fighter shooting Javeline and TOW anti tank missles

Why didn't the FSA use those armaments on the cops in Ferguson?

the best way to control a population is to keep it confused and assume the role of authority.
"confused? let me take care of what your little mind is unable to grasp."
Its time for some other fucking country to do this shit.
We are tired of 60 years of crusades
Better yet, no country do this shit.
Just what makes everyone believe that this is not going as to the plan?
Who benefits?
The Defense Contractors of America stand to make such fantastic profits from the mass Government sanctioned murder happening in the Middle East.
Then when the public screams for a solution the Defense Contractors will even gain more as America gears up for another war in the Middle East.
Yes Obama is their boy.
Yes you can also profit from the blood money if you so desire. Go long Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, and the rest...right?
But karma is a bitch. And when we are finally nuked into a neolithic age as a result then you can take all of that money that you made and burn in Hell for eternity.
But there is no God as so many of you will retort. Yes that justifies the immorality. You have to have that "moral relativism" as you know. And you will kill million more than any of those "religious crusaders" which you hypocritically claim to despise.
As for me I will bet on Eternity. If financially supporting the madness were like fucking a whore...well...I would not even fuck her with your dick much moreso my own.
Yes. The flaming queer in the White House is the Defense Contractor's boy. He is just doing as he is told.

Now that's what I call LEADERSHIP! Just BRILLIANT!
You have to create more debt to get out of it.
You have to pass the bill to see what is in it.
You should arm your enemy to defeat him.
This is all consistent anti-logic and we've been hearing it for fucking years. A design for chaos when you know no one is paying attention.
You have to give up your freedoms in order to protect the Land of Freedom
You all need to give BlindMonkey the keys to your Ferraris to make sure nothing happens to them.
We created these fuckers, along with Al Qaida, so why wouldn't we arm them? Our gov't hates us far more than it hates foreign jihadists
Listen. America the beautiful. There is nothing that you can do about it. Or is there?
Let me be clear. I heard on the Internet that ISIL is welcoming USSA men to join their team as "REBELS"! I'm not sure but I already heard that USSA had some young men go to Syria and say "I WANNA FIGHT THIS FUCKER OBAMA"! And they are over there fighting right now!
It would be awesome to read on ZH in a few weeks that all the arms given to the "MODERATES" have been liberated by "THE ISIL".
Just how much more of this will US Colonels put up with? Something has got to break soon!
As long as the MIC keeps throwing hundreds of billions the military's way, they will continue to be bought off. But yes, watch the colonels for the first inklings...
I think the US military should get first go at the DC clowns. All our services have paid the price for these idiots! Any left over should be tarred, feathered and chained to a block wall so they can be used as bottle rocket targets. If somehow a few dont bust into flame we should send them to Ukraine (reparations). Im sure the Ukrainians wont mind having to use a little newspaper to get the fireplace started.
It's in their JOB description, &$)(/:?! Traitors too? Whatcha waiting for officer corp? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Actions speak louder than words.
Foreign AND domestic...
There are valid, constitutional laws for just this case...
Of course, if we are speaking about the constitution, only the Navy is actually permited by the con, so the army, air force, and marines are in a bit of a pickle.

Oh you want to do it legally? Ok we use the patriot act against them and world tour rendition them to: Tunisia Libya Egypt Iraq Syria Iran Afganistan and the rest. When they return from their secret vacation we can try them in a military tribunal using all those forced confessions! Next we send them to guantanamo bay! Two days after they get there we will give guantanamo back to the Cubans and leave all the sweet little torture shit in place. After the terrorists are dealt with we will be free to annul the Patriot act, dismantle the CIA/NSA, lock up the bankers forever and return to being a free country.
All that was legal right? My government assures me it is!
They pulled off the same operation we did, only a hell of a lot cheaper. We should just hire them. Oh, wait. I'm confused.
the sheeple are waking up...slowly but surely.
Zionism/AIPAC/BIS/IMF/Federal Reserve are rapidly losing politcal support during this awakening process
Which makes them even more dangerousfor several reasons. Their plan was to indoctrinate people into believing the NWO would be for their benefit, and the sheeple are so fucking stupid, and the media and academia so complicit that it would have worked. But now they will have to accelerate their plans, and as they have openly stated, it's easier to kill a million people than control them, so we know what their back up plan is.
Isn't tomorrow 9-11???????????????????????
"indeed it would. Americans, just say no... this is all bullshit."
Listen John. 'mericans have no "FUCKING" say in the matter. Shut up and eat your "PEAS"!

#13- Arm the enemy, but disarm the shitizens
Well, duh.
They are going to take AR15s from civilians and give them to FSA. They will tell the world that we are making to streets in the US safer, and while arming the Free Syrian Army (ISIL 1.02) they won't be THAT armed.
See--everyone is happy.
Arms sales to both sides is bullish for GDP. Long term replacement contracts also in place.
Liberal Democrats aka Democrats are so f**king evil and stupid like neoCons.
Rank and file Ds, and Rs, are either ignorant, or just plain as dumb as a box of rocks..hard to claim ignorance for 40 years though, so perhaps the younger members of those parties we can partially explain/forgive..
...unintended consequences... Can we get past giving space to criminals and traitors. These are intended actions. C'mon guys, let's get with the reality program. If we can't articulate it, we sure are not going to fix anything.
Agree with you Zadok. None of what IS is doing is unintended. They are following the script they were trained for and I'm sure they are well paid actors. The intentions are real the deaths of many people are and will be real but those responsible for giving the orders will not be revealed.
American public has no guts...hence no glory....
But I read the AP article in the paper is morning and said the same thing....
"Obama Plans To Fight ISIS By... Giving More Weapons To ISIS?"

Sounds like attacking ISIS near Baghdad is a ploy to get us used to airstrikes again, and the next ones will be over Damascus.
We will then invade Syria with support of the American people, at least those American people who think CNN is "news."
Winner, winner! Chicken dinner!

Slowly exposing the fraud to others. I have settled on asking questions to provoke thought. Those that respond, I spend time with. Thereby filtering the stupid to more efficiently spread knowledge.
He will call them ISIL during the whole speech. Everybody else knows this group as ISIS. But he'll say ISIL. That alone will be infuriating. Throw in a couple of Pokistaaans, folks, I will want to shoot the boob tube.
Hey, there is no tube in the boob tube. What rhymes with flat screen?
Anyhow, I think this idiot does it on purpose. Pokistaaaan. And drops the g's when he's talkin' to the folks.
And this being 9-11, if something doesn't go boom DURING the speech, I'll loose all respect for ISIL.....er ISIS. A head rolling into the frame would work too. Reminder to self, popcorn, pretzels and pop.
The purpose behind calling one group by, what? 4 names? i.e. Islamic State, Islamic State in Iraq and Levant, Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, and Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham (this last one is the most important because it is the one you almost never hear), is an obfuscation defense for all sorts of legal shenanigans when this whole thing inevitably ends up in international courts. We never really bombed anyone, you see, none of these names refers to any actual organization. Case closed. No money or land for you.
This morning National Politburo Radio announced a mass assassination of the heads of the largest non-ISIS Syrian rebel group. It seems too late for the McCain Doctrine. Not that it was a good idea earlier. Seriously, hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. It is NOT our problem. There is no room for moderates in a civil war.
AMERICA... FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It don't count unless we see the heads of the heads. On a table( with no tablecloth covering the legs, we all know that trick!)

http://www.syrianperspective.com/
The Syrian Army has been kicking ISIS ass. Russia better finally have those S300s and hopefully S400s in Syria and operational. My guess is General Dempsey will say the same thing he said almost exactly 1 year ago to Obama. Think again. I think the Pentagon realizes that this would be a real war and people will be fighting back with advanced weapons. The world saw what Russian Kornet anti-tank weapons can do to Merkava tanks and a few Abrams in Lebanon.
I doubt MIC wants the world to see how crappy their stuff is. Russia's foreign minister said that the US or any other NATO or UN country better think twice about invading Syria's air space. Putin, China, Iran and Hezbollah appear to be all in on having Syria's back.
I use to think Obama was just a crook and not a complete idiot... I WAS WRONG.

How many times must I explain this?
Should I include pictures this time?
To hell with pictures!
If, after the sudden U-turn from "no strategy" to "we'll only arm the Syrian wing of ISIS jihadists", people following this shitshow still attribute to incompetence/stupidity facts that are pure malice, then not even pictures will help you change their mind.
Personally, I don't think the guy gives a shit about anything. He's just biding his time for another couple of years until he can write his memoires, go on the $500k/ speech tour, and make some real money. Meantime, he just rubber stamps whatever TPTB stick in front of him.
Yes, let's repeat what the US has already done. ISIS is using American weaponry. Let's give them more. I suspect they will quickly learn how to effectively use their manpads.
Kind of a "the enemy of my enemy is my enemies enemy...or something like that" foreign policy.
Muslims are killing Muslims just fine without our help. Need to stay out of there and let them finish each other off. The world would be a better place.
Grimaldus
No, the primitives are not killing each other quickly enough, we should arm them all.
>>muslims
the evil won't stop until AIPAC and Co. are brought to heal. Muslims today, everyone else later. zionism can't hide behind phoney islamic terror forever. anyone paying attention already can see that the central bank scam is the true cancer on the planet, and it most certainly is not controlled by Muslims...
couldnt agree moar
This whole ISIS farce is nothing more than a sorry attempt to get their cherished pipeline through Syria. I hope Putin stands firm and tells Obama and company that any bombs dropped in Syria will be considerd an act of war against Russia herself.
It would give me a grin if Putin landed an entire tank brigade, a division of troops, several air squadrons, and whatever necessary quantity of state-of-the-art Russian AA missiles in Tartus and just ran the CIA/ISIS right out of Syria with extreme prejudice.
Yes, they don't want to give Assad the lead, do they.
Moreso, it is clear the US is "playing" ISIS just like they played Al-Qaeda, Bin Laden and all that crap.
Appears O is the problem here, not ISIS.

Why wouldn't it work for Obama for a complete destruction of America?
So far, so good....
Now we know why he never shares his grades and why he never wrote a law review article. Maybe he's a moron?
It would probably be more accurate to say he is a Total Fiction, an Invented Persona, a Fake, a man with no alibi.
Kind of like $USD?

Odumbo has done more damage to the US than any terrorist organization ever could.
Hohoho, Bath House is the Biggest Terrorist who ever attacked the USA.
Ya can't bomb 'em without armin' them first, it wouldn't be fair.
Impeach the terrorist President Obama then try him for war crimes against the American people.
Yeah, right. The engraving is already done on Noble Peace Prize 2.
He has no idea what's going on. He's a useful idiot and nothing more.
"Useful" for what???
He got turned down for 1/2 billion when ISIS stalled out in front of baghdad. Now he needs 5 billion to finish the job because his boys are losing again...and inflation.
Five BILLION DOLLARS for the "moderate" rebels to fight the "extreme" ISIL. How do they know who is who? Did not ISIL come from the so-called moderate rebels in the first place? This is beyond bat-s$&@ insane.
The thing I really hate about this is that not one talking head or politician has talked about the OPTION of NOT attacking ISIS. It is just assumed that we must attack them.
And if we do that it's going to bite us big in the butt down the road, as usual.
(They Strike, Fiction, Tim Lancey, 2014)
.....late at night, somewhere over the Atlantic on September 10, an unmarked Israeli Airborne Tanker connected to MH370, its original paint job removed. In its place was a new logo, "ISIS Airlines," in huge neon lettering. Fire-proof "passports" from purported ISIS agents were stored in a special box, to be released for later recovery.
.....the aircraft, flown automatically by a nearby unmarked Learjet, and controlled by a backup team in Tel Aviv by satellite, completed its refueling and hurtled on through the darkness towards its destination in the continental US.
.....snugly secured in its cargo bay, a "device" from Dimona awaited a transmitted command, its sensors scanning the pre-programmed receive frequencies.
......at a secret desert location, Israeli specialists prepared to upload numerous, prepared "statements" by ISIS to the intertubes through an untraceable intertube connection.
Two senior techs watched the progress.
"I was a young officer when we hit the Gois' USS Liberty."
"I am too young to remember it."
"Ha. We gunned down their sailors gleefully! Their president was powerless to stop us! This will be even bigger, Sol!"

"No, he will read it "in the papers" as usual, heh heh. Let's grab a coffee. We have a few hours before September 11 dawns in America."

Smartest man in the room syndrome
Since "official" policy is and has been to overthrow Assad, OBarry and his band of traitors are stuck between a rock and a hard place policy-wise. If SISI is a threat (I believe it is a dire threat), the logical and most effective thing to do is work with Assad to eradicate the threat. Absent that, all policy decisions will be enigmatic.
Removing brutal dictators in Iraq and libya have shown the only way to keep the clusterfork of various tribes and sects in line is with a brutal, deal making dictator. Iraq and Libya are both in chaos without their dictators, and the same or worse can be expected in Syria.
The question for OBarry is, "Why remove Assad? Doesn't it make more sense to work with him?". Have no fear; I won't hold my breath waiting for the "media" to ask that question.
Amen!! We have a winner!
Proof that ISIS is us(meaning USA) If we truely wanted to defeat Isisthen we would partner with Russia and the world and back ASSAD and help him destroy ISIS, but no USA/ISISrael's goal is total state failure and chaos in the ME.
This is just the headfake.
The real game most likely here is to get NATO involved directly against Assad by really arming the rebels by first selling the arms to NATO then in turn having NATO give them said arms then have NATO put their spearhead force on the ground in Syria to supervise said rebels making it look like they are there to fight ISIS while the real objective is Assad and Eastern European Energy Security objectives via Arab gas. All they need to do is carve out a corridor either through Syria or ISIS or both held territories into Jordan for example to bypass Assad. Is it becoming clear what the real objective of ISIS is once you break down the composition of the individuals in the group and who it is that seems to know exactly where these individuals are coming from (hint it doesn't seem to be the security apparatuses that are supposed to be indentifying these guys and passing that information along to intercept them before they leave the countries of origin)?

+1. Never let a good crisis go to waste.
In fact, middle east policy is really about maintaining a perpetual chain of clusterfucks. Purposeful instability which yields the standing illusion of reasons to arm, disarm, bomb, etc.
You know the drill by now. Once all the public lambasting of Obama and Ron Paul bite sized non-interventionalist kindergarten slagans for the bite sized brained children is done along with Obama using it to rub the military's nose in it over Benghazi they only real option left is to sell the weapons to a direct ally legally you have treaties in place with since you know that spearhead force is ultimately going to contain and probably a majority of them being US members or advisors.
What an Orwellian nightmare. Seymour Hersh published an article last April that has been buried by MSM, WP and NYT refused to publish it, I am sure many ZH readers are well aware of it, "The Red Line and the Rat Line", http://www.lrb.co.uk/v36/n08/seymour-m-hersh/the-red-line-and-the-rat-line , about Obama, Erdogan and the Syrian rebels. This fiasco is getting hard to explain to my kids who come home from school and keep asking me about the 'world news' today, what happened today Papa? I just don't know where to start.
GREAT post...
Explain to them the REAL version of any of the news topics they come home with and have them ask their teachers. Fun to have them stutter through some half-witted regurgitation of whatever the Huffington Post is reporting....
Thanks and lol. I read to them the articles in the news and have a discussion afterwards. My 9 year old boy is just amazed at how stupid the Washington syndicate is, he questions everything. He is a big fan of investigative journalists Greg Palast and Seymour Hersh, just a wee bit of influence on my part ;) .
They need a good war to cover the imminent financial collapse. Obama is under pressure to stoke the whole thing up and 'blame the terrorists.' The tragedy is that the MSM and the majority of the population have no friggin idea.
You kidding? The i6 just came out. What could be more important than that?
Good luck in getting a pipeline to Europe in soon to be ISIS country.

According to a report published in Reuters, the group known as ISIS may have actually been trained over the last two years by the United States government in Jordan. It would be quite ironic if the United States was actually responsible for the training those now destabilizing the Iraqi nation. It was not known whether those doing the training were direct members of the US government or if they worked for a private firm, but the main focus of the training was on anti-tank weaponry.
The report continues that 200 men were trained at the facility and that over 1200 were to be added in a plan to prepare to free Syria from the rule of President Bashar Al-Assad. French and British advisors were present as well to aid in the training and according to Jordanian intelligence sources the program was designed to create fighters to be a part of the ISIS group.
The plan appears to have been to train 10,000 “moderates” of Islam in the hope that they would reinforce American interests in the region. Arizona Senator John McCain even paid a visit to the group during training to show his support. McCain was photographed with General Salim Idris, who was later expelled from the group because he was seen as too moderate for them.
The new leader of the group is General Ibrahim al-Douri. He was the Vice-President of the Revolutionary Council under former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and was supposed to be the successor to Hussein. Al-Douri has been on the US most wanted list since the second Gulf War began and many inside the United States government thought he was dead. This could be why the White house refers to the group as ISIL, more in the article below.

We have to arm them before we kill them
Simply pass an international law that would restrict magazine clips to ten rounds, then ISIS would be stopped.
this is how you test new "military technologies"
arm the morons, get them all jazzed up with hatred toward something and then test away
better results for upgrade planning when targets are live
And how does Obama explain how giving even moar weapons to the "Syrian rebels" is going to do anything against ISIL?
He didn't bother to explain?
Thought so.
Someone needs to check the flatware and drinking glasses in the Whitehouse... I think they might have high lead content.
Is there anything that this administration touches that doesn't turn into a steaming pile of radioactive dog shit?
You cannot possibly believe that these are all just bad choices, do you?
What a lot of people call failures from an other perspective are seen as great successes.
Check – Destroy the U.S. and make it a fascistic police state which you can use to create havoc around the globe and initiate WOIII.
Check – Move all U.S. jobs to China except for the militarily complex which you need to bully the world into chaos.
Check – Create chaos around the world by the so old but ever so successful divide an conquer often using ol sentiments to get tribes at each others throats. The West against Russia using ol cold war sentiments which are easy to trigger with one small false flag (MH17). Sunnis against Shiites, Islam against Christianity, black against white it will always work because people are stupid and easy to delude.
Check – Destroy the dollar and the euro so a new payment system can be introduced after the NWO has taken over.
Check – Create WOIII by letting the U.S. attacking Russia and China and use Europe as a punchball.
Check – Reduce the population by spreading viruses and creating war.

I'm glad that we're going to arm the rebels since without arms it must be real difficult using your feet to shoot AK-47s....
Despite all the words that will be said about this topic by "serious people", I have a much simpler view of the situation.
1) It's the oil, stupid.
2) No matter what we do to "secure our oil interests", it will result in some of our freedom and consitutional rights being sacrificed in the name of keeping us safe from terrorism.
That is all.
We have freedom and constitutional rights? When did that happen?

this is one of those things you could see comming a mile away. if there was any real intent to subdue ISIS then the logical course of action for Washington would be to forge an allience or at least a working partnership with the Assad regiem, not cause further misery, death and destruction by arming and providing direct air support for these fictional moderate groups. after all it was these so called moderate rebels that allegedly sold the two american jouralists to ISIS in the first place, now whether the beheadings were real or not is certianly up for debate but why would you trust those who sold your own people out with more guns and more money?
Syria has a fully fuctional and battle hardened military that is currently winning the war on the ground so the most helpful thing DC can do right now would be to provide intel on ISIS posistions and movements to the Syrian military thus allowing them to strike at ISIS with greater precision and accuracy. if ISIS is indeed the dire threat that Washington claims it to be then I fail to see how the perception of "hepling the Assad goverment" is even an issue here. eliminate the most pressing threat first then deal with whatever political fallout follows later. which probably wouldn't be much at that as it would be hard for anybody to publicly take issue with Washington simply feeding the Syrian military information and providing target packages while avoiding any kind of direct involvement. any nation who came out against such actions would be exposing themselves as sympathetic to and possibly supportive of ISIS.
It's the perfect win win sisuation Washington can help crush ISIS in Syria without spending much treasure and no blood. let the Syrians do the heavy lifting, it's thier country, it's thier fight and it is very clear that they do not want, nor will they benifit in any way from yet another party dropping bombs on thier land, least of all the US or NATO.
but we all already know this really isn't about ISIS, this is about doing what the failed chemical weapons false flag last summer did not. this is about ISIS being a very, very handy pretext, a way to get the public behind the idea of western military intervention in Syria. Assad just wasn't a bad enough villian and the western media simply could not paint him as a stark raving lunatic mad dog killer that they needed him to be. people saw right through the propaganda and Assad with the help of the alternative media here in the US and the Russian media had won the PR war and won it decisively. there would be no further oppertunity for a false flag to rally public support behind an invasion of Syria so...
they just backed off while a new approach was formulated, notice how Syria which once domminated across the headlines from google to yahoo simply disapeared and for a good long while the whole thing was simply stowed away. of course the war didn't end and people continued to die but in American mainstreem news that was no longer of any importance, not even worth mentioning that the whole affair was still going on. then along comes ISIS, sweeping across the land like a biblical terrorist plauge, beheading as they go and threating raise there flag in the White House itself. then, on cue, we have politicians telling us that they might just have the ability to level an American city, and there are pictures posted on twitter or whatever of the windy city with ISIS claiming that they are already here in the US. throw in a couple of americans sands heads and the end resault is predictable...
instant public appoval to bomb the shit out of Syria, all the PTBs needed was to find the right boogyman, even if that boogyman might not be as all powerful and threatining as we are being lead to believe. that's right, there are already bunches of reports surfacing that question just how strong is ISIS really, that suggest thier capabilities may be far more limited than what is being reported. they might not be as well funded and trained as it would seem, there wealth and military capabilites just might be grossly overestimated by western media sources.
now why would they do that?
so here we have the set up so the western PTBs can finally do what it is that they have been itching to for three years now, launch a military operation in direct support of those trying to overthrow Assad. Lybia 2.0, ground the air force, attack and destroy Syrain command and control, degrade and destroy Syrain military capabilities until despite regime change, once again, not being the goal Assad himself is driven through the streets strapped to the hood of some CIA wet work assets rental. oh yeah, and if ISIS gets destroyed in the process great, best not to leave such dangrous tools laying around but my guess is they will simply melt away once the action starts.
and that's the plan, take out ISIS (maybe, kinda, sorta) and oh by the way, as long as we're here and we've got plenty of bombs to go around...
not very creative and kind of see through but sadly it looks like this script is going to play and the invasion and destruction of yet another country is set to begin, one can only hope that Moscow will again find a way to step in and stop this from happening for a second time.
Tried to warn you in '08; then again in '12. Nope, voting for the black guy because you can't stand being called a racist; voting for a guy who couldn't operate a slurpee machine at the beach when it's 104 in the shade; a guy who has lied repeatedly about every damn thing he touches. And now.... we're shocked, SHOCKED, I tell you he is a complete dunce. Elections have consequences.

With NATO backing the US under the pretense of attacking ISIS what will Russia do if (when) some of Assad's assets are targeted by NATO.
To me, this is much much bigger than anyone is reporting. Of course, maybe my imagination is running away with itself.
The Plan is not to stop terrorists. Profits are to be made....keep the War Machine going so The Financial Theft is hidden.
The other shoe hasn't dropped YET.

It's all about a back door into Syria. Don't be surprised if the US is fighting Hezbollah within 4 months. Israel isn't done with Gaza yet - it is still too comfortable for the indigenous people/refugees there...
The Oded Yinon / PNAC line of plan hides amongst all the claims about gas pipelines, the petrodollar and the "globalists"....
If I were an ISIS planner:
Too much hype on Thursday 9-11, and every 'Merikan will be on watch. They will collectively sigh a big "Whew" when nothing happens, and the infidel party will lower it's guard substantially come the Friday morning hangover.
0bama is going to tell us what his plans are for us on Wednesday, giving us a good heads up as to how much time we have to plan. Not much, I'd suspect. But then again, we've had years already.
Friday, all my buds will be on their knees prayin, and not at the mall.
Also, Friday is a special day of the week for our beheadings and other carnival entertainments, as well as a time for the infidels to gather at public locations.
So, in light of that, and with an understanding of the U.S.s "lack of imagination" as admitted to on 9-11-01, my plan would be:
Blow up 100 or so shopping malls on Friday evening, Sept 12th, in a coordinated attack, using our southern friends MS-13 among others. This could be accomplished by 100 actors, whose families we have captive. Maintain arms length connection from any of the actors.
Delay, distract, and divide. What's YOUR imagination telling you?
I'm staying home on Friday.

Now we know why the US government banned the import of AK-47's -- they wanted to make sure that there were enough available on the global gun markets for them to buy and hand out in Syria.
Of course, this is about kicking Russia's buddy Assad out of Syria so that Middle Eastern natty gas can reach Europe and 'starve' Russian gas companies. And the CIA doesn't care who runs the oil and gas fields in Saudi Arabia.
