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

unrealistic moralists? End the FED and fund the wars with your own money.
You realize the FED are counterfeiters using fractional-reserve USD invention, and MMT practices to 'fund' (monetize) the now non-debt-ceiling constrained US budget deficits? They have done it since Bush's final 1.44 Trill budget deficit.
8 years that's been occuring.
Why do you think Putin is now making a play to sideline USD?
And ISIS themselves are promoting a gold-standard?
It's because the Fed is doing that, and it seems to work, the USA and USD are just not collapsing, as they had hoped.
Instead it is them who are collapsing.
USD collapse means it will suffer the hyperinflation fate just like they did in past. It's comical to see morons like you who think usa is some sort of savior or exceptional land. Being usa pooches from pacific I've noticed you're too suffering from muritard exceptionalism . Get real cunt go post your garbage back on mp.net . It'll console your tiny world .
The job of the American military is to wage perpetual war, and it is the job of the arms industry to get rich sellings weapons to all sides.
These jokers are getting rich off all this. Their kids are not dying, so who cares?
Unless there exists a total sense of defeat and immediate personal threat to this guy or he might know something nobody else does or he is insane. NATO has caused genocide in the Muslim world. How long before they take aim at the ones providing the funding for these operations? Maybe after Russia moves in in the upcoming weeks. Some of these people are refugees moving into the EU. With their relatives killed and nations destroyed I think they will try to make things right. It really seems that this guy is in a desparate position and acting irresponsibly where people's lives matter. Throw him into the brig. Exile him to Somalia.
And didn't a Russian base just open in Syria, close to the fighting? Enter Russia, not just with supplies, but with boots. Assad is not leaving.
No they did not.
Would that they did--the Ruskies would shut down that party overnight. But they are tied up closer to home, thanks to malicious mischief from Skanky Vickey and her fellow dredges. The Ukraine war keeps reigniting to keep the Ruskies away from the ME.
The obedient advance in the military. To think is to chose. To obey is to allow others to think for you. Does 30 years of not thinking, train you to think for me or others?
Al Qaeda and ISIS are different faces on the same thing, Wahhabi Islamic jihad.
In government,or its claws, the military, office does not enlighten the man, but dements and corrupts. Paraphrasing Lord Acton's, "The greatest heresy is that the office sanctifies the holder thereof": The greatest stupidity is to trust a man rewarded for not thinking to think for me.
And that's why intelligent comments like the Reaper's are found here, and moronic comments from that quasi-general jackhole, Patreaus are found on NPR!
Thank you sgt doom. I reject, therefore I am for 65+ years.
Give me a minute to think about someone else thinking about that for me.
ISIS 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.

Obama vows to speed up ‘training ISIL’http://www.rt.com/usa/272470-obama-training-isis-slip/
I say skip funding Al-CIAda and just directly fund & arm satan to kill ISIS so that Al-CIAda can kill satan and take over the middle east and then call Al-CIAda "Moderate"
US influence in the region is waning, promises are worthless, there is no trust, so at this point showing up with free arms and ammunition, un-tampered satellite imagery, maps, etc... perhaps spun to Congress as the only way that the USSA can influence tactical plans while gaining insight into strategic objectives.
A waste of time, lives and money - but that is what keeps the corporate welfare flowing to the military-security-industrial complex.
"An Al Qaeda by any other name (ISIS) would smell as sweet"...to the globalists.

Speaking of sockshow, I really miss Sifl and Olly.
It's amazing what people will say when you have enough dirt on them and pay them enough...
Israel first, no one second.
Israel First.
Nuke Israel first.
Bush41 whacked Saddam instead of letting him finish Iran
USG destroys ME, then invites muslims to live in America
America's only reward was 9/11 - courtesy USG morons
WH muslim wants a nuclear Iran so as to destroy America
USG - America's #1 Enemy - impeach 535 +ICiC for treason
How about we stop arming everybody and just come home.
We've offshored manufacturing, except for defense. The economy would collapse. No MIC, no real estate/consumer market. The MIC is the "middle class". If you're not in it, you're either in healthcare, law, or working at WalMart.
Armaments are fungible.
so we should arm the old enemy we created, because the new enemy we manufactured is doing the heinous things that the first enemy we created refused to do
You were at USAID or Radio America, right?
Just kidding, but love your comment!
"I'm totally serious: I'll bet you a dollar I can get the Red State-Brietbart faction to start cheering for Al Qaeda."
True dat. And I bet you $10 I can get blue states to VOTE for Al Qaeda.
Why wouldn't they arm one of their CIA controlled branches to fight their other CIA controlled branch? After all, they need to keep the sheeple thinking there are these big bad threats to AMericans so people like this writer can be brainwashed and write about it.
I am convinced that a power that be along with higher ups of those "groups" could come out and say and show with evidence that AQ and ISIS are nothing but CIA controlled groups and the sheeple would still not believe it.
The President already affirmed it, but people are complacent and they are complicit.

I thought ISIS was the new name for AQ in Iraq and Syria.
and let's not forget the fictitious Khorasan group...
Pretty much, MrBoompi, except they are using branding from Nostradamus, so if you read some of his quatrains closely they will sound remarkably similar to what ISIS has been spouting and claiming.
go read up on the zarqawi split back a few years ago, before they created isis
The Encyclopedia Britannica lists thre forms of intelligence:
Human
Animal
Military
What else would you expect from Gen. Betrayus?
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. ...
The same general who worked hand in glove with this guy to set up shop and an "open for business" sign in Iraq and Afghanistan and anywhere else the Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State wanted a torture factory so that they could brain wash and threaten new recruits as "Al Qaeda" before it was ISIS anywhere they needed them?...
Is anyone even remotely surprised at this stage???... Even when they become inactive working as "consultants" but for whom?
Really!
The USA has always armed and trained Al Queda. The only time they stopped was when the Public found out, so they moved on to another Terrorist outfit, Helloooo ISIS/ISIL/IS
How long 'til we get a third crazy muslim terror outfit.
Maybe called The Murderin' Muslim Mofo's or something.
The Uighers. THe CIA is all up in their business, and probably already using the useful idiot types as we speak.
I'd be worried if those people actually had a job where what they said might mean something.
Ummm excuse me, but haven't I read in numerous places that the US (or maybe more appropriately the CIA, wherever their alliegances lay) DID arm and train both Al Qaeda AND ISIS? (likely through their Libyan operation and more recently through Turkey, Israel and Saudi Arabia)
I also read that the so called "surge" back in the day was a bribery operation.
What I am thinking is that the US and everyone else should simply stop arming and paying mercenaries and if they want to fight, they should do it with their own level of technology, probably sharpened sticks.
But then the criminal war machines in government, banking and private industry would not be fiat rich.
Why yes, indeed, you are most correct, GG, and then they pay these whores such as former four-star generals and CIA directors to say they should be armed and financed some more!
One downvote. Obviously, you offended an honest whore.
Right. And then we'll be shocked...shocked I tell you when the queda cross over and join isis effectively delivering u.s. weapons...the new fast and furious...
It's a rush to get them armed ahead of the next election. They're arranging another 9/11 for 2017. Je suis Charlie dumbass!

The guy is a four star general so he cannot be this stupid as to suggest arming the enemy in the so called war on terror. I can only think he thinks the general public are stupid.
Hey, they armed the drug cartels and helped them guard and transport the drugs ... during the so called "war on drugs".
Why would this be any different?
What he proposes makes perfect sense if the aim of the US is to stir up wars all over the world. And that is the aim.
