We need to stop thinking there is something wrong with that. Seizing territory and resources is a war crime. I suppose that doesn't matter to Trump's base. BTW, the Kurds have lost hundreds of times the lives that we have lost fighting in Syria. With that in mind, shouldn't the oil fields go to them? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many movies and documentaries came out hours after the bin Laden raid, while captured terrorists were still being interrogated? How many operational details were released by POTUS? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the "guerrillas" have been trained by these countries. Al Baghdadi is an affiliate of the Ur Lodge Hathor Penthalpa and there are numerous photos of him along with John McCaine. Al Baghdadi has simply been retired, perhaps to Miami lol Is that satire, or are you a conspiracy theorist troll? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents knew, the country and all the world new, the British knew because they set up Iran's oil industry before WWII. The Russians knew because they compete with the Middle East. Japan and China knew because they need it. The oil has always been there to maintain a stable world economy. We all knew and we all knew that we all knew. And then came some lefty and said, IT'S THE OIL! "The oil is, you know, so valuable, for many reasons, Trump told reporters. It fueled ISIS, number one. Number two, it helps the Kurds, because it's basically been taken away from the Kurds. They were able to live with that oil. And number three, it can help us, because we should be able to take some also, and what I intend to do, perhaps, is make a deal with an ExxonMobil or one of our great companies to go in there and do it properly. ….” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milley talked to reporters on Monday, CNN’s Barbara Starr asked them directly if part of the mission of the troops around the Conoco oil and gas fields was to protect them from Russian and Syrian forces. Both the secretary and the general tried to avoid answering, but finally Esper said, “The short answer is yes.” The rationale: to protect the Kurds’ source of income to keep ISIS prisons running.

Opl Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 "A key informant who helped lead US special forces to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi provided key information about the Isis leader's safe house in Syria and even produced his soiled underwear for DNA testing. The unidentified informant, an undercover security advisor to Baghdadi, was also on hand at the compound in Idlib, northwest Syria, when US Special Ops forces raided the safe house to confront the terrorist leader." The informant who led the US to Baghdadi, said General Mazloum Abdi of the Syrian Democratic Forces, described a room-by-room layout of the terror leader's compound on the Turkish border, including the number of guards, floor plan and tunnels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is odd that trump described both the American special forces and the target as dogs. Why ?? Do you really think his children would be any different to him ?

Good job anti Trumpers, we'll never believe a word you and MSM say from now on. It's been exposed on any and every thread re Trump. Here's Piers Morgan's reaction to the reaction of the left towards Trump. Now he's a guy who does not think highly of Trump. Simply poetic and spoken with consummate truth. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama was slow and cautious and over diplomatic - and he didnt get a lot done. Look how Trump dealt with ISIS - he just shut down the media 'overwatch' and then bombed them - that is how you destroy something like ISIS - under Obama they would have taken over Turkey by now (unless Russia had decided to take their own actions up a notch). So much lack of knowldedge on display in your post that it would take too much time to deal with it all. So let's just address this particular piece of nonsense quoted above. By the end of Obama's term Isis had lost most the territory it held in Iraq. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraqi_Civil_War_(2014–2017) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AussieBob18 Posted October 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2019 Liberals live in an echo bubble - clearly the killing of the ISIS leader has shown that - absolutely nothing positive about the outcome or the method. I can hear it now in their 'CNN alternative reality' if the circumstance were different : "Trump knew about where Baghadi was for 9 months and did nothing. He put the entire western civilisation at risk and that could have resulted in the killing of thousands of innocent people at the hands of the murderous ISIS group". Maybe switch to a thread about the USA Economy, Jobs and Stock Market performance?? Just asking. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody asked you to do the job, nobody wanted you to do the job. And you only wanted the job to control the oil. No, you're wrong. The rest of the world has been coming to the US to be the world's police force for too long. And the US has obliged them for too long. But since you think that is the case, I'm sure you're thrilled the US is pulling troops out of Syria.

The rest of the world has been telling the US to wind it's neck in for too long. And the US has been ignoring them for too long. When the US was the primary occupyingg force in Syria, ISIS grew in numbers and increased the area it controlled. It wasn't until Russia stepped in that ISIS went into retreat. Of course, good old US of A tried to take the credit for what was essentially a Russian victory. I expect the Russians and Iranians to fill the gap that US has left. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
