State Department Spokesman Caught in MAJOR LIE about ISIS and Turkey
Walid Shoebat ^ | August 21, 2014 | Ben Barrack

Posted on 08/22/2014 8:31:15 AM PDT by george76

In another heated exchange between State Department spokesman Marie Harf and AP reporter Matt Lee, the issue of whether any governments are funding ISIS / ISIL is proving to be a hot button issue. In this particular exchange, Qatar is the focus but other countries – specifically Turkey – should start getting spotlighted soon.

Harf contends that there is “no evidence” of governments funding ISIL but Lee calls her on that assertion based on a quote from President Obama. To say there is “no evidence” that any government is “supporting this group (ISIS)” is a major lie

...

Let’s go back to the Benghazi attacks. According to Seymour Hersh, the U.S. presence in Benghazi included a weapons trafficking operation, the logistics of which were run by then CIA Director David Petraeus... It was allegedly financed by Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. The operation – known as the “Rat Line” involved weapons shipments from Benghazi to Turkey, and then on to the Syrian rebels.

It has become patently obvious that those rebels turned out to be ISIS.

This would mean that the U.S. (Obama), Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia have been supporting ISIS / ISIL.

The Turkish government’s fingerprints are increasingly all over support for ISIS

...

The Turkish government was also implicated in the attacks on Armenian Christians in Syria...

As for Harf, she has repeatedly asserted that Turkey is a “Close NATO Ally”.

Unfortunately, that’s actually a whole lot more truthful than the lie that there is “no evidence” of government support for ISIS.

Equally unfortunate is that the government Harf represents (more specifically, the Obama administration) is also guilty of supporting ISIS.

It's obvious that this young lady is following beautifully in the footsteps of her family and that of her new husband and his relatives.

It appears that every one of their assorted careers consist of sucking off various government/federal grants/social service teats....and she's no exception.

Many times it pays very well to be liberal and shrewd...and being related to the occasional government-employed hopeless moonbat like State Department spokesperson Ms. Harf seems not to have hurt this well-connected, well-embedded tribe at all.

She may even become Secretary of State some day if that other moonbat, Hillary, is elected.

We have gone full circle folks!

ISIS/ISIL = Al-Qaeda = Mujaheddini

The Mujaheddin was created and founded by Zbigniew Brzezinski.

Who was Jimmy Carter's National Security Advisor.

So why is anyone surprised we are arming and training them?

Either we expel Turkey from NATO..or we kiss NATO good bye..
________________________________________
How about we kiss Turkey good bye? The unfortunate part of this picture is the the U.S. is also behind the building up of ISIS. We are as guilty as all the other insane participating countries. This is deliberate, self-destructive terrorist building. What can you make of it except treason.

Treason - a violation of allegiance to one's sovereign or to one’s state; the offense of acting to overthrow one’s government or to harm or kill its sovereign; the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.

I beg to differ. She does not look like she was hired from a junior high debate club. Rather, she looks like she just came off of a session on the pole at Tony Soprano’s Bing club.

Excellent point about "Juan." He and Graham-nesty were, not very long ago, big time supporters of IS through U.S. support for their "moderate" front groups fighting to kick Assad under the bud. James Foley discovered, veritably lost his head in discovering, what little difference there is between those same front groups and IS. Now "Juan" is pretending - as much as this administration - that there is no contradiction in their positions today and their positions twelve months ago.

Thank Providence the Egyptian military overthrew the Muslim Brotherhood, for the moment, and Assad still threatens the IS western front and blocks their access to the Golan.

And Hillary Clinton wants to be the president, now.

Right.
