Every weaponized conflict has its casualties. The reason I am not calling the conflict in the Middle East a war is because in war, someone wins—someone loses. Our soldiers are being disfigured and killed, a high level dark operation seeks to continue a conflict that is not for land, water or the good of the American People but has become clearly a political effort for dope (the poppy fields of the Middle East), money, oil and regime adjustments. America has been at war for 222 years out of 239 since 1776. It is properly called building an empire, not fighting for freedom. Let that sink in for a moment.

It is time for a comprehensive history lesson that many will not be able to stomach and some would dare call unpatriotic. The information I share with you today is about the grand puppeteer and we the people, Americans, and how we are being played in the Marxist theater by the political one percent to create fear and discord in an effort to overlook the killings of women, children and innocent victims in the name of collateral damage in the Middle East. The United States has been very inconsistent over who our allies are. Those who cooperate get billions in U.S. support (Israel) and those who do not are fed into the public relations machine that spews America-hate-rhetoric made especially for Americans to ingest; and we do…without question.

Remember, this very same thing happened in Vietnam…when America woke up, they loathed our young men who fought and died in the name of the conflict. It seems in the best interest of democracy, the political ruling class via the mainstream media could find a reason to put our American troops in Sweden if need be. As American citizens, we must question authority and use our own personal cognitive rationale to figure out something is very wrong when the media feeds us (like animals) Hollywood-style produced videos of beheadings that beg the question: Are they real, and how are they so well distributed? Also the question we need to ask: Did Christians get beheaded, or were these loyalist to ISIS following the dream of multiple virgins for taking one for the team? What does ISIS want?

When the United States political ruling class thought of President Saddam Hussein and Colonel Muammar Gaddafi as allies, there was no room in U.S. vernacular to call them “dictators.”

In 1988, during the waning days of Iraq’s war with Iran, U.S. intelligence officials conveyed the location of the Iranian troops to Iraq, fully aware that Hussein’s military would attack with chemical weapons, including sarin, a lethal nerve agent, according to reports from CIA. They were also the last in a series of chemical strikes stretching back several years that the Reagan administration knew about and did not disclose. U.S. officials have long denied consenting to Iraqi chemical attacks, however, retired Air Force Col. Rick Francona, who was a military attaché in Baghdad during the 1988 strikes, paints a different picture. “The Iraqis never told us that they intended to use nerve gas. They did not have to. We already knew,” he told in an interview report to the investigative website Foreign Policy.com.

Graeme Wood, a contributing editor at The Atlantic posted a story asking,  “What does ISIS really want?” The story generated questions of not only the origin of ISIS, but the political intent of organizations branded by the U. S. and international media as terrorists. Asking what ISIS really wants could be viewed by many as left-wing propaganda telling only one side (the bad side) of ISIS. Not siding with the ISIS, but more concerned about the “why,” of ISIS, which has been carefully branded as terror in U.S. polls of public opinion. Leads to the question of non-compliance by United States in their over-regular looking the other way in the Middle East, especially as it concerns Israel. The propaganda generating made-for-social media terrorist darling ISIS has benefited from U.S-Middle East collaborations. Having spent billions on Iraq and war on terror for securing its own interests in the region, the U.S. and its allies have been unwilling to admit the devastating 2003 invasion was a mistake with disastrous consequences for the whole Middle Eastern region. ISIS, described by global mainstream media outlets as the world’s most committed and fanatical radical organization has only recently gone by its current name, after the unrecognized Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) was recently proclaimed.

The mainstream media and social media have made ISIS relevant. The New York Times reported on a study done in collaboration with the state department about the use of social media and terrorism has concluded, “Despite repeated attempts by Twitter to thwart the Islamic State’s threats, propaganda and online recruiting by suspending accounts associated with the group, sympathizers have maintained thousands of active accounts on the social network,”  the study said. “The users include a disciplined core group that sends messages frequently and understands how to maximize its impact.”

Yes, ISIS is real, but the origin of ISIS has not been fully explained by the U.S. or ISIS itself. American thinkers must ask if  ISIS was ever a friend to the United States.  Is there clear and present danger to Americans in the Middle East with European roots? Yes. Is Minnesota’s lowly Mall of America an ISIS target? The answer is simply no…the hype the mainstream media has made about MOA and ISIS makes it another great global ‘tourist’ shopping destination.

Let that sink in for a moment.
