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).
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.
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.
