Pompeo reminds the world that the United States and Israel are above the law.

[toobfreak]

Palestine was offered the ideal settlement in the late 60's that would have settled this and given them a big hunk of the land, statehood and lasting peace by the UN. They and the other muslims of the region passed. Now they got shit. One day, they won't even have that. Armenia 101.

To refresh your fuzzy memory;
The Naksa: How Israel occupied the whole of Palestine in 1967

Nothing fuzzy here.

In an effort to threaten everyone into not investigating US or Israeli war crimes in the International Criminal Court, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says anyone involved in such probes will lose their visa and may be sanctioned.

The Washington war hawk said that action had to be taken because any investigation into alleged war crimes and torture committed by the United States would be a threat to US rule of law. Visas will be pulled or denied for anyone who has been involved in or even requested an ICC investigation of “any US personnel.”

The ICC is currently mulling over a request to investigate possible war crimes committed by the US in Afghanistan in the course of the nearly 20-year conflict which has left over 100,000 Afghans dead. The international court prosecutor’s office says it has “reasonable basis” to believe that “war crimes and crimes against humanity” were, and continue to be, committed by foreign government forces in Afghanistan.

Pompeo openly stated that the action was intended to get the court to drop the potential investigation, and that Washington was ready to further increase the pressure if they don’t do as he says.

“We are prepared to take additional steps, including economic sanctions, if the ICC does not change course,” he said.

When Obama took office Isis had already been in a Iraq for four years

Under Obama, we - the US Military - watched mile-long ISIS militant convoys travel from Syria through open desert into Iraq to invade / take over much of Iraq the military had already liberated at great cost.

We requested permission to launch air strikes to obliterate their convoys as they traveled through that open desert.

We were denied - Obama's answer was 'No'.

Who do you think Barry was having the CIA run weapons to out of Benghazi?

Barak Obama aided the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood take over the government of our ally, Egypt.

Obama had our military help Al Qaeda, who slaughtered 3,000 Americans on 9/11/01, murder the leader of Libya - who was helping the Coalition fight terrorists in Northern Africa then take over Libya for their own...later he and Hillary needlessly sacrificed 4 Americans to Al Qaeda there in Libya.

The US President needs no approval to defend America and attack ISIS, a viral offshoot of al Qaeda.

Actually the beginning of ISIS was among the Sunni prisoners being held at the beginning of the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 - 2004.

Bullshit. There was no ISIS until Obama pulled out of Iraq and cut the funding for the Sunni Militias Petraeus had created, trained and funded to fight al Qaeda. When Obama took office there was no ISIS and al Qaeda was reduced to being no more than a nuisance.

We're both right actually.

The group's roots are in the Sunni terror group al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), started in 2004 by Jordanian Islamist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It was a major player in the insurgency against the US-led forces that toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003, and against the Shiite-dominated government that eventually replaced Hussein.
Here's how ISIS was really founded - CNN

There was no ISIS when Obama took office. ISIS was formed by some of the more radical Islamic terrorists affiliated with al Qaeda after Obama pulled out of Iraq and cut funding for the Sunni militias that had, with US logistical support, rendered al Qaeda nearly non existent. It would be fair to say that Obama created ISIS and President Trump defeated ISIS.

Yep, because the History of our invasion and occupation of Iraq didn't start until the Obama presidency right? Fact is President Obama honored President Bushes withdrawal timeline as set out in the famous SOFA he had to negotiate with the Iraqis at the end of 2008. The president had every right by that agreement to pull the troops out at anytime but kept to the agreement and first pulled the combat troops out of the Cities. Then the final withdrawal according to the SOFA. Thank God he did too. When ISIS took control of the Sunnis areas of Iraq and threaten Baghdad (not to mention Erbil, but that's a different storyline), that forced the Iraqis to stand up. With the Kurds and plenty of air support, they worked together to drive ISIS out. Not a whole lot of US soldiers lost their lives in that coalition.

All bullshit. Obama pulled in 2011 because he believed that if he didn't live up to his 2008 promise to withdraw it would hurt his chances for reelection. When Obama explained (lied) why he was leaving Iraq, he said it was because the Iraqis no longer needed us, not that he was powerless to stay because of the SOFA - the same SOFA that was in place when Obama returned to Iraq to fight ISIS. When Obama said he was leaving Iraq because Iraq no longer needed us, he was lying. The Pentagon had assured him that if he withdrew US troops the country would go up in flames. Obama considered whether it worth it to allow hundreds of thousands of people to die and millions of people to become homeless refugees to enhance his chance for a second term, and he decided it was.
