I was happy seeing Geraldo shaken up. He needs more of that. Plus more humility.
But, you’re right. It won’t last.
To my knowledge there have been no sanctions pressed for ISIS by our Congress, the President or the UN. From the beginning we heard ISIS had taken over the Iraqi oil fields and was reaping Millions of dollars to buy weapons and promote terror. But not a damn move to stem that tide?!
We’ve filed sanctions on Russia, Iran (now defunct), possibly Israel, and others, but ISIS need not deal on a “black market” because they are unrestricted and free to deal on the open market (apparently). Al-Q is covered under use of force resolution from Congress against “terrorism” but I do not believe ISIS is covered - it has not been updated.
As I said earlier, I simply can’t figure it out (and it is my job to figure things out).
Exactly so many things wrong with being a media whore
Hiya Cousin Mike.
Goodness you’d think that after the attack in France being the same day they’d at least attempt to softly mention Islamic terrorism. Instead the creeps double down.
Now starting to watch the TV shows as when I came home from church the ELECTRICITY WAS OUT!
Had a bit of breakdown in church....might tell about it.
Man I got to get my life together.
Simply answer. All this “foreign policy crap” is just a huge burden for 0. He has no interest in it since his agenda is about rebuilding US Society from culture to economics in his own imagined “perfect” image. He more worried about US Gun Owners and that deathless political fairy tail “Climate change” than anything happening around the world.
With out strong leadership from the USA, policy around the worlds is drifting aimlessly.
Agree. It’s time for a new type of Presidential candidate....a leader.
I bet they are wringing their hands, but there are no peaceful practitioners of Islam. Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism all teach how to be better practitioners of their respective faiths. Only Islamic texts teaches Muslims how they are to treat & think of non-believers.
Leftists are truly worried that their useful tool for power & control of Americans will be thwarted.

For sure there 80 million Egyptians and just to throw that away and give it up to the MB is insanity.
Sounds trite but it will work
When I think of the stupid mistakes that cost us the election in 2012 it just keeps on haunting me.
It was always supposed to be citizen government let’s give it a try
You are making one of the points I like to make all the time in every op the regime does there are numerous tentacles that extend outward and destroy the US and build up the regime.
Exactly John no one ever asked those questions how is Isis allowed to freely sell oil on the black market at a reduced price and their refineries there distilleries everything not bombed out of oblivion?
I would not be surprised to find that ACORN (renamed) is in change of the logistics of distribution of the scads of Syrian refugees throughout the USA - creating new demographic balance for guaranteed electoral success of the Dems.
And of course ACORN grows even more wealthy
I still say we have to use our own media.we have to stop depending on the drivebys to become a fair and balanced. it’s not going to happen
The only possible excuse I can see for not bombing Isis crude oil Holdings is that they might return the favor and we might have $100 oil again. but that’s all the more reason for us to become oil independent we don’t need these friggin Arabs.
My guess would be the DNC calls the shots on distribution of terrorist
Go ahead. Right now our domestic oil production is slowing to the point of shut down due to the oil glut. We have more then enough potential production outside the ME to take up the slack. The only reason we are addicted to ME oil is the Saudis sell it cheap.
I’ll take some pain at the pump to end the 40 year Middle Easte war we have been fighting.
Absolutely right. Obama’s Chicago war room had massive computer files on every precinct in the USA, exactly how many votes/bodies (dead or alive) it would take to tilt into D column, so they’d move “students” in, but not is let us sprinkle a dab of refugees here..then there..etc.
Sickening!
What I don’t understand and i have friends that can probably explin it to me is why we import oil at all when we have the ability to produce the oil here through fracking or in the Gulf of Mexico.
