Rest assured, it's all for our freedoms. Or so some say.
President Trump states that he'll be withdrawing troops, I mean moving them to Iraq, sorry, and that we'll be guarding the oil until we decide what we want to do with it.
youre right, it would be easier to let the terrorist blow up the wells instead of protecting them,,,
I don't think the Syrian Government and Assad would blow up their own oil wells.
Do you think U.S. troops will leave when Assad shows up to claim his oil?
no the other terrorist,,,
Wow. You are really, really, dumb.
They are doing the same shit as they did before.
There are no other terrorists. It is the same damn thing buddy. Your unquestioned loyalty to this administration has you not thinking cleary, and accepting bullshit stories, from sources YOU KNOW push propaganda. WHY?!
Rise of Islamic State was ‘a willful decision’: Former DIA Chief Michael Flynn
Rise of Islamic State was ‘a willful decision’: Former DIA Chief Michael Flynn
". . . Amazingly, Flynn actually took issue with the way interviewer Mehdi Hasan posed the question—Flynn seemed to want to make it clear that the policies that led to the rise of ISIL were not merely the result of ignorance or looking the other way, but the result of conscious decision making:
Hasan: You are basically saying that even in government at the time you knew these groups were around, you saw this analysis, and you were arguing against it, but who wasn’t listening?
Flynn: I think the administration.
Hasan: So the administration turned a blind eye to your analysis?
Flynn: I don’t know that they turned a blind eye, I think it was a decision. I think it was a willful decision.
Hasan: A willful decision to support an insurgency that had Salafists, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood?
Flynn: It was a willful decision to do what they’re doing.
Hasan himself expresses surprise at Flynn’s frankness during this portion of the interview. While holding up a paper copy of the 2012 DIA report declassified through FOIA, Hasan reads aloud key passages such as, “there is the possibility of establishing a declared or undeclared Salafist principality in Eastern Syria, and this is exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want, in order to isolate the Syrian regime.”
Rather than downplay the importance of the document and these startling passages, as did the State Department soon after its release, Flynn does the opposite: he confirms that while acting DIA chief he “paid very close attention” to this report in particular and later adds that “the intelligence was very clear.”
Lt. Gen. Flynn, speaking safely from retirement, is the highest ranking intelligence official to go on record saying the United States and other state sponsors of rebels in Syria knowingly gave political backing and shipped weapons to Al-Qaeda in order to put pressure on the Syrian regime:
Hasan: In 2012 the U.S. was helping coordinate arms transfers to those same groups [Salafists, Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda in Iraq], why did you not stop that if you’re worried about the rise of quote-unquote Islamic extremists?
Flynn: I hate to say it’s not my job…but that…my job was to…was to ensure that the accuracy of our intelligence that was being presented was as good as it could be.. . ."
Is there any wonder the current administration let him go down?

Wake the **** up already.
