Regardless of which party is in power, we've all been told that our politicians are our betters. They know what is best for us and the rest of the world. If they need to keep things from us, then it's probably best that we don't try and find out.

Bad Kurds! They should have kept their stinkin' mouths shut.

Now the US and UK won't be able to execute their "double secret" plan to do whatever the heck they were gonna do for our betterment and the betterment of all mankind.

Curses!

That’s Barry’s team (Sunnis) why would he want to stop them?

Key takeaway from the article:

“I have completely lost hope in America after listening to President Barack Obama,” (Chief of Kurdish Intelligence) Talabani said. “I blame him personally for what has happened in Syria, in the Middle East, in Iraq at the moment.” “I have no hope any more.”

Fallujah fell in January.

Obama should have had intel beefed up and a plan in place immediately to prevent further spread.

He is DERELICT.

If true, same old, same old...

The INTEL is out there but was not funneled up? Shades of 9/11.

Why does Hollywood always show US INTEL organizations doing their jobs perfectly? These organizations and their personnel are good looking and flawless.

The reality is different.

The key to fixing the current Iraq crisis is Maliki getting good sense, or getting a replacement with good sense who can unite Sunni and Shia to kick out ISIS. So was this an intelligence neglect, or an opportunity to apply shock therapy by doing nothing. Time may tell.

And Ambassador Stevens tried to warn them that the situation in Benghazi needed more security.

And the Russians tried to warn them about a couple of US kids traveling to Checnya.

And an FBI agent tried to warn them about Muslims wanting to learn to fly, but not land.

Etc. Etc.

The US government could care less.

The spin had not been spun. Obamatons needed time to find scapegoats and excuses to protect dear reader.

All according to plan. Arming terrorists in Syria thru Libya... Leaving military assets to same to be used in planned takeover of Iraq... What is next? Obama and Jarrett know...they are part and parcel in the planning.... They are complicit.. The bumbling stumble bum act is a fiction.

Sure they did.

The UK and USA didn’t want that data out on their Sunni buddies.

They wanted their Sunni Buddies to dispose of the Syria leaders with military help from both countries.

Many of the weapons the ISIS serial killers have came from Libia aka Benghazi and indirect sources from both sides.

The only who probably didn’t know the dangers of ISIS was McAinal when he gladly posed with some ISIS serial killers and called them, the good guys. He was and is too dumb to realize he was a PR tool for ISIS.
