He’s a modern day Walter Duranty.
The oil is moved on roads in tank trucks. It would seem easy to bomb the roads and bomb the trucks with drones. If you could end the ransom business and bomb the export routes ISIS would go bankrupt.
This isn't being done because...?
He blames GWB for ISIS? Why not blame the radical Muslims?
I do think, however, that deposing dictators is a complicated thing, and that we in the western world do not understand all aspects of it. The failure to consider the plight of the ME Christians seemed to be not considered before we deposed Sadam Hussein. A similar situation is being considered now regarding Syria. And, BO’s silly support of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt proved to be a fiasco.
SOaB.
He got me to read too much before:
A. Religion of peace.
B. Bush’s fault.
Suck it, Hans.
He calls gwb iraq war a folly... He is a tool of terror... The folly was not demanding sectarian government and freedom of religion in iraqs constitution and leaving a strong presences there. Obamas folly of leaving
I agree with one of his two conclusions. ISIS is the biggest global threat. However blaming Geo W Bush’s “illegal “ war with Iraq as the cause de ISIS is a Germanic political stretch.
Jürgen Todenhöfer
Is this a nom d’guerre or for real? Todenhöfer, The one from or the keeper of the house of death.
One thing he says is true. ISIS will not be defeated from the air. Obama’s “coalition” is a mirage. Unless there is brave, well trained committed infantry that engages them directly, kills them, destroys their sanctuaries, and permantly seizes their territory and wealth, they will remain active, dangerous and continue to grow. Also Western nations must take severe action against its citizens who join them.
I can’t figure why ANYBODY would want to live in a
s****hole like Syria-perhaps he like the company of terrorists.
Any way he gets what he deserves for living there.
ISIS is all Bush’s fault - nothing to do with O’bummer giving them a free pass for months - making sure they could get their hands on the MRAPS and a plethora of other US weaponry - including a huge warehouse of rifles, shoulder rockets and ammo in Mosul that just happened to have not one guard on duty that night - etc - let them slaughter 10’s of thousands of Christians and drive 100,000’s from their ancestral homes...
Nope - Bush’s fault.
Let me ask this: How many reporters embedded with the Nazis’/Gestapo in WW11 and came home and wrote the ‘news’ from their perspective?
We DID have a soldier meet with the V-Cong during that war - 3 times, while in Uniform... (which should have put him in jail for life - and, at the every least, Constitutionally rendered him ineligible EVER to hold an elected office - even dog-catcher.)...then can home and slandered our soldiers -
Instead, he’s now Sec of State
This German creep was allowed his access AND safety ONLY to carry water for the JV Team
This alone tells me he is in denial of reality. Thousands of Germans have been maimed and killed by muslims (= islamists - same, same) while just a handful of muslims have been killed by right wing extremists. PEGIDA are not extremists, they are regular folk who're fed up with the propaganda offered by politicians and the media.
It’s not surprising ISIS gave this guy safe passage. He’s a raving Leftist lunatic. As a “useful idiot”, he fits in just fine with touting their agenda and getting their “message” out.
