McCain's Buddies Behead a Child

OP ignores that these are Obama funded soldiers.
And Reagan funded Sandinista's which killed nuns..

Regan Administration cuts off support to Sandinistas and Begin Aiding Contras ... use of funds 'for the purpose of' overthrowing the government of Nicaragua.

Then, he wasn't a great guy. How's that a defense for Obama?
It's has been US policy to divide and conquer since WWII...

Whatever, dude. Don't give a sh** about all your excuses.

Iran/Contra was about getting tons of pure uncut cocaine into the country using the Mena airport and the douchebags in Washington D.C profited greatly....it helped keep the ATMs filled with worthless fiat currency with no intrinsic value. Clinton and the Bush crime family coordinated it all....and my oh my...how the money rolled in.......for every 5K of ammo and weap[ons, they received 15K worth of pure uncut cocaine.

Reagan never funded the Sandinistas. Carter is the one who was responsible for them coming to power AND FUNDING THEM. You are such an uninformed idiot. From your own link:

  • 1980 : It becomes clear that the FSLN is supporting revolutionaries in neighboring El Salvador. Carter initially ignores this and continues to give the Sandinistas aid in order to curry favor.
Regan Administration cuts off support to Sandinistas and Begin Aiding Contras

  • January 20, 1981 : Reagan is inaugurated in the context of a rightward shift in U.S. politics and concern about the Soviet Union. Due to the continued unwillingness of the Sandinistas to stop their support of Salvadoran rebels, Reagan soon cuts off all aid to the FSLN indefinitely. This prompts the FSLN to suggest that the U.S. would invade, thereby justifying further consolidation of power and crackdowns on perceived enemies.
  • Early 1981 : FSLN becomes more radical as moderates are kicked off of the governing junta. Eventually, Arturo Cruz and Éden Pastora became disaffected with the revolution and defected.
  • March 9, 1981 : Reagan authorizes the CIA to help interdict arms trafficking to El Salvador, but this does not give them the power to arm rebel groups. Concurrently, the administration tries to convince the FSLN to stop their activities.
  • December 1, 1981 : Reagan signs the order allowing the CIA to support the contras with arms, equipment, and money in order to put pressure on the regime. This is concurrent with U.S. efforts at diplomatic initiatives and the strengthening of pro-U.S. regimes in Central America. Covert activities are viewed as the best way to pressure the regime. The Contras are trained by Argentineans and operated out of Honduras.
  • March 14, 1982 : Opposition forces blow up 2 bridges, including one used to ship supplies to Salvadorian rebels. The Sandinistas impose state of emergency and crack down on the opposition while tightening press restrictions.
  • April 1982 : Pastora declares that he is going to take up arms against the regime. In May, Robelo declares his support and soldiers leave the Sandinistan army to join Pastora.
  • June 1982 : The birth of the Reagan Doctrine is publicly announced. This is Reagan’s policy of supporting democratization everywhere. Thus, the goal of covert operations in Nicaragua shifts from one of ostensibly interdicting arms to supporting a change in government.

Yea, context. Without it, these libtards act like Reagan was being devioius. Read this and fuck off, Moonglow
 
This insanity, that McCain had more power over foreign policy than Obama/Crooked Hillary does not bode well for the upcoming election. Low information voters are still in the minority thankfully. :p
 
Hillary can't wait to take over the White House so she can increase the number of refugees entering the U.S.
No way any of them will turn out to be Islamic extremists.

State Dept. could reconsider aid to Syrian rebel group after boy's beheading
July 20, 2016 -- The U.S. State Department will reconsider its support of a Syrian rebel group if it's proven the group was responsible for beheading a 12-year-old boy, a spokesman said.
Members of a Syrian anti-government group which has received U.S. military aid are accused of beheading a child they suspected of helping a Palestinian, pro-Syrian government faction, the Liwa al-Quds. Videos surfaced online Tuesday of five fighters allegedly in the Nour al-Din al-Zinki movement accusing the boy of aiding the pro-government Liwa al-Quds organization. In one, a rebel says, "The Quds brigade has no men so they sent us children" as the boy is taunted. In another, one of the five men beheads the boy as the others cheer.

Mark Toner, U.S. State Department deputy spokesperson, said in a press briefing Tuesday the report of the boy's death was "appalling." "If we can prove that this was indeed what happened and [Nour al-Din al-Zinki] was involved in it, I think it would certainly give us pause ... I can't say what that consequence will be, but it will certainly give us, as I said, serious pause and we'll look at, frankly, any affiliation or cooperation with this group we may have going forward, if these allegations are proven true." Toner told reporters the Free Syrian Army has appointed a commission to investigate the boy's death and try to determine the accuracy of the allegations of who was involved.

A Liwa al-Quds statement said the boy, whom they identified as Abdullah Issa, was not a combatant and did not participate with Liwa al-Quds in recent clashes with rebel forces this week in Handarat, north of the city of Aleppo. The group said he was a child of a poor refugee family. It added the boy was receiving medical treatment, evidenced by the intravenous drip in his arm noticeable in the videos, and accused Nour al-Din al-Zinki of taking "cheap and despicable revenge" on the boy, a Palestinian, for losing the battles with Liwa al-Quds. The Nour al-Din al-Zinki movement said it denounced the incident, referring to the beheading as "individual errors that represent neither our typical practices nor our general policies." "All individuals who undertook the violation have been detained and turned over to the [judicial] committee for investigations in accordance with the relevant legal standards."

An Amnesty International report, published earlier this month, details acts of torture and abductions allegedly committed by Nour al-Din al-Zinki fighters. The Nour al-Din al-Zinki group was a member of a coalition of moderate opposition forces that, until September 2015, received arms and financial support in their fight against the Syrian government from the United States. The coalition was involved in a logistics hub operated in part by the CIA. The Nour al-Din al-Zinki movement has also received support from Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
