Former CIA Boss and 4-Star General: U.S. Should Arm Al Qaeda

George Washington's picture




 

Former CIA boss and 4-star general David Petraeus – who still (believe it or not) holds a lot of sway in Washington – suggests we should arm Al Qaeda to fight ISIS.

He’s not alone …

As we’ve previously shown, other mainstream American figures support arming Al Qaeda … and ISIS.

The U.S. actually did knowingly support Al Qaeda in Libya. And also in Syria.

And we actually ARE supporting ISIS to some extent.

Truly, America’s foreign policy is insane.

Funny, another CIA director was on the SLM board of directors from 1999-2009 http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/schlumberger-oilfield-holdings-ltd-agrees-...

 

And another CIA director believes in Global Warming https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._James_Woolsey,_Jr.

ISIS, IS or ISIL (flavor of the day) is Al-CIAda; what a statement meant to deceive.  We now know his new position is to perpetrate more D.C. propaganda.  Man's solution to the lack of peace is more war.

Al Qaeda is the CIA, and Mossad.

Al Qaeda is tyranny's boogeyman.

9/11 was Al Qaeda. (See above statements.)

ISIS is Al Qaeda rebranded--the "New and Improved" boogeyman.

It's all a cruel and tragic lie and joke.

Zion is a scheme, not an ethnicity..

 

They should be worried about Al Guillotines.

The CIA created and funded Al Qaeda starting in the late 70s.  ISIS is just a subsidiary of Al Qaeda established a couple years ago by the CIA.  Ever wonder how ISIS just popped up out of nowhere fully funded?!  Shit!

Now we have the architect of 9-11, Dickless Cheney coming out with a book.  There is no shame with these globalist pricks!

How do these inbred, cocksucking, motherfucking, piece of shit morons rise to the top of anything, especially something like the U.S. military. I have to believe that there are enough fairly intelligent high ranking officers with morals and belief in the constitution, to see what idiots like Betrayus are doing, or allowing to be done to the fabric of this country. The rank and file don't follow generals, they follow sergeants, lieutenants, captains and there are a heck of a lot more of them than generals. When are they going to rise up and say, enough? Munity and string these traitors up from the nearest tree.

But, I fear that they are as sheepalized as the rest of society. We are truly screwed!!!!

His troops named him Betrayus and he betrayed his own wife, the mother of his children. He is a pos, and was as "an ass-kissing little chickenshit" as as Cadet, too...perfect fit to get stars from the 9/11-committing homosexual psychopath whose father murdered JFK to restore Rome's FedScam and keep us as papal catspaw in Rome's latifundial estate of Indochina.

The CIA is Knights of Malta Roman Catholic, as was Hitler's bagman, the builder of Auschwitz steelworks and labor camp, Prescott Bush.

Get a clue. Rome and the Khazars crucified the Christs and Immanuel, ran "the Wall Street of slavery" at Rome for over 2,000 years, and run Babylon on the Potomac today.

David Betrayus works for them, Satan's Own, not for America and God.

"The real Anti-Christ" is precisely what America's prophet, the anointed founder of True Israel, Th. Jefferson, said it is:

To Samuel Kercheval

Monticello, January 19, 1810

SIR,

-- Yours of the 7th instant has been duly received, with the pamphlet inclosed, for which I return you my thanks. Nothing can be more exactly and seriously true than what is there stated; that but a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandising their oppressors in Church and State; that the purest system of morals ever before preached to man, has been adulterated and sophisticated by artificial constructions, into a mere contrivance to filch wealth and power to themselves; that rational men not being able to swallow their impious heresies, in order to force them down their throats, they raise the hue and cry of infidelity, while themselves are the greatest obstacles to the advancement of the real doctrines of Jesus, and do in fact constitute the real Anti-Christ.

Arm foreign paramilitary forces, disarm Americans.  Give money to foreign nationals in their own country, impoverish US Citizens.

PoasterToaster wins this year's award for the most pithy, cogent, salient and full of wisdom comment to date.

The Wall Street running dog lackeys (loved those Hanoi commie rants back then when I was serving in the military), i.e., the US criminal gov't, keeps arming the terrorists, beginning with Jimmy Carter and Ronnie Raygun, and they haven't stopped, just as previous administrations (exceptions:  FDR and JFK) armed every psycho dictator in creation!

The CIA and Unocal armed the Taliban in the late 1990s, and thousands died on 9/11/01, thanks to Rumsfeld and Cheney and Gen. Hayden and William Wechsler and Buzzy Krongard and Alfreda Bikowsky Silverstein and Gen. Patrick Hughes and Robert Mueller III and Frasca and Maltbie and Jeffrey Royer and Anthony Elgindy and Adnan Khashoggi and Peter G. Peterson and Stephen Schwarzman and Robert McKeon and Hank Greenberg and somebody at EurekaGGN and Peter Janson and AMEC and Robin Raphel at the State Department.

And $2.3 trillion went from unknown accounts from DoD funds to the investment funds of BlackRock, Vanguard Group, State Street and Fidelity (FMR LLC).

And that's why those 28 pages will forever remain redacted to the Public!

9/11 --- a joint US-Saudi operation.

It goes back to, at least, 1846;

http://generalgrant.weebly.com/mexican-american-war.html

During the Mexican-American War and his service in it, Grant started to formulate his own beliefs and judgments about warfare. He judged the actions of high officers (though not out loud at the time, obviously) and decided that this war was immoral. He disagreed with actions taken by superiors, and believed the entire premise of the war to be a front for acquiring more land that was unopposed to slavery. In his best-selling memoirs written at the end of his life, Grant reflected on his experience in the war, saying, "I was bitterly opposed to the measure, and to this day, regard the war, which resulted, as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation." He also stated, "I do not think there was ever a more wicked war...I thought so at the time...only I had not moral courage enough to resign."

Do you see the Arabs doing much to stop ISIS?

Why is it the US's or West's job and responsibility? We want to help, not do all of the job, but if the Arabs want to act like there is no role for the thousands of tanks and hundreds of helicopters they have, and its really not important to them to put to an end to ISIL, then I'm sorry, how can the west be blamed for trying every possible remaining option?

So ISIS will get bigger and swallow them up, and there will be more and more combat-hardened forces, who will just infiltrate and take over Saudi, Kuwait, GCC, etc.

And then there will be an extremely well-armed and well-financed Islamic state, and Iran really will go nuclear, not because of Israel, but because of ISIL.

And then ISIL will go nuclear too.

But of course the West will start using tactical nukes on ISIL, before it gets quite that far.

And if the west doesn't do it, Israel will, as they won't risk their ground forces in a quagmire and have Israel exposed to flanking, they'll just tac-nuke them, until they surrender, or just aren't there anymore.

So why are the Arabs not doing almost anything effective? Do they have some high-rise projects to build or something? A pressing lunch booking maybe?

 

So if the West does ANYTHING it gets blamed for EVERYTHING - by EVERYONE!

 

But it will be the Arabs that pay the price of doing almost nothing.

idiot it was sa and its gcc allies only who created isis to continue their proxy invasion mission of syria. Arabs are doing their part to kill issi but when schmucks retards like usa military were caught red handed in giving weapon supplies to isis via air drops these arabs lost all their faith in them and now when IRaq approached Russia for weapons it gladly helped. Btw Iraq after days of toil took Ramadi back and now muritard army is saying you should leave Ramadi because we'll take it under our control so that we can give it back to isis pals,

WEST creates mess that's what they do ( anything means that not genuine help ) .

I can't even take your question/objection seriously, it's quite bizarre and ridiculous to me. We 'control' none of that, they control every part of their states, their policies and actions. Do you really not understand anything of how this works?

I'll make it rudely simple, put tanks on trunks, drive in direction of enemy, unload, engage, kill, repeat.

It's called a mobilization and deployment. The Saudis and GCC could have already wiped out ISIL by now, if they had a spine and worked with Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, GCC, to roll over them, with western and Arab air support, but they don't, so tens of thousand of people have been butchered, and tens of thousands more will be, and then it will be them getting killed.

Given you put a red on that as soon as I posted it, I will conclude you are disingenuous complete cretin, who in fact wants tens of thousands more people to be butchered, with no prosepect of an end in sight.  I spit in your worthless direction, 'L Bean'.

This behavior is typical and in keeping with the way the USA has always operated through history, for instance:

"Americans will always do the right thing, after exhausting all other alternatives."

- Winston Churchill

 
Thus they are making all the possible mistakes, and variations on those mistakes, that can possibly be made, before they finally just hose ISIS with over-whelming relentless heavy firepower 24/7, with a ferocity that has never been seen in all human history.

And then it will be clear to everyone, that that's how its done, and then all the sore ass whiners will slink away and consider new ways to blame the West for every possible thing they ever did, or didn't do, or won't do, and won't do wrong in the world, in the present or future.

 
i.e. not unlike now really.  :D
 

 

 
[Excuse me, the unrealistic moralists and bleeding hearts and Russian trolls are now going to punk me for daring to tell the truth once again about how things really work, and not just joining in the chorus of whining like sniveling babies, because of, "Oh, the humanity!", and the artificial problems they want to pretend matter more than material realities, for which they have no solutions whatsoever, and never have and never will.]
