AyG Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) How unislamic of them! Surely they should be riding horses or winged donkeys, just like their prophet.

Gringogazzer Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 They have enough educated people in their ranks who know how to get the oil out of the ground. Hence they have a shed load of money.

mgjackson69 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 What constitutes "so many"? If I had the money or financing in hand I could go to any number of dealerships in USA and make a mass purchase of trucks. The would be nothing nefarious about me doing so, or the dealer selling them to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyG Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 These aren't new models. No dealers involved. Most of them are almost certainly second hand, exported from Japan where white is an extremely popular car colour. White also works well in a hot climate, reflecting sunlight so reducing the heat inside the car. So, no conspiracy theories required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Obama left a few thousand Armor Plated hum-vees sitting with the keys in them. Real nice, good job. I have asked this question and many other obvious questions mant times, the media, well 90% of them or more can never answer these questions. ISIS are using mainly American arms, they can sell stolen oil through Turkey, Saudis are (allegedly) supplying them weapons. The public are treated like stupid idiots world wide. Bush once said, we will track down their money supplies and freeze them. However this never has happened and America are being embarrased now as Russia make effective airstrikes against ISIS and their mates, American airstrikes a joke, American spending a joke. Since the ARAB SPRING we have seen nothing but kaos in the middle east and a massive amount of Toyotas and weapons supplied to terror groups. The media saddly are privatised shills and arms companies can manufacture and supply weapons at will and never be taken to task by Obama, CNN ,BBC, or any other PM or politician world wide. I now find that RT is the only media outlet in the world today that goes near to publishing truths. We have to always read between the lines with all media. The world is a sad and corrupt mess at the moment and saddly the media still can convince masses, One look at Donald Trump should be enough to wake anyone up.

It's worse than the old Soviet media, nothing but anti-American propaganda, about 10% truth and the rest twisted or outright lies. Russia is an embarassment to good old USA, saddam Husien never had weapons of mass destruction , Blair and Bush sold the world a lemon.They are selling the world the same lemon over Asaad. If you tell a lie long enough people will believe it. Of 83 billion$$$ of aid that went to Afghanistan only 1 billion went to buying food the rest went to weapons and corruption. Isis uses american arms, so where do they get them and the money to buy them and the Toyotas. Assaad is not wanted by America as they have other ideas, all America has done to the middle east is trash it. However if you are an American feel free to vote for Donald. Just have a look at who is on RT and interviewed , many of the highest intellecuals world wide including ex high ranking CIA Even good old Larry King has moved to RT.

razer Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Back in the late 70s and 80s Toyota had the biggest market share in the Middle East just from personal observations. This was before Toyota had inroads to the US or European markets. ISIS can raid dealerships and storage points so it is really no mystery for me.

Oh boo hoo.... anti-American LOL, funny your not doing so bad with your own anti Russian propaganda by referring to Soviet media... yes we know, its all lies the CIA never trained and financed Osama and the taliban and US big oil never hosted the Taliban and they never put a BBQ on for them to get them to agree to a pipeline No there was never a $500m US program to train "moderate muslims" in this conflict.... the US are up to their necks in this and playing both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are dangerously naive if you think there is a big difference between ISIS and Al Quaeda. Ever notice how they all fly the same flag? Why are the Syrian people online all talking about how there is finally some positive results against these extremists who invaded there country. Ok, so maybe you don't read Arabic, but then why are US military personel, who are high ranking officers saying the same thing. There is a huge uproar in the ranks as becomes clear that the state department is sabatoging any honest attempts to attack these extremists. NATO and US forces destroyed Iraq to kill one man, Saddam Huessin. Afghanistan to kill Bin Laden, Libya to kill Gaddaafi, and now are tearing apart Syria to unseat Assad. Four countries destroyed to kill four people. Does that really make sense to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
