I agree, and that is why I can never respect you or anyone like you




"so you admit America is a force of evil in the international scene"

Hmm no, but being the worlds only superpower brings you into a lot of questionable acts and some of those actions are wrong.

The West has brought the third world into the global economy and raised their standards of living by many multiples, that is a fact you don't seem to appreciate.

Are some of these economic relationships mutually beneficial?  Yes, but that does NOT mean the US is "exploiting" disadvantaged people.

If the actions are for US interests and they benefit US citizens, then they are "the good guys".

Well, going into Iraq provided a shitty return on investment in my opinion.  In fact, a negative return.




That is implying the US taxpayer was the monied interest.

Youre not this naive. At least I dont think you are.

Well, we all know how it works, put the bill on the US taxpayers and the potential positive return on investment into Big Oil's pocket.

Big Oil miscalculated, cut their losses and left a long time ago. By the time they had to pay their staff 3 times the normal salary and repair pipelines in the middle of the desert every 3 days, this cheap oil wasn't so cheap anymore.

What is very difficult to quantify is US influence in that region of the world which protects the "Petro Dollar" and its benefit for US citizens. 

Policymakers can't directly say "this is for your benefit Joe Six-Pack", but they can say "we are spreading democracy", there's no real way they can say specifically say how this benefits US citizens other than "we are protecting US interests".

Thats a good point about the petrodollar, but I think its pretty clear that "protecting our interests" doesnt yield any benefits for the average American, let alone the people dealing with the consequences of what we're doing to protect those interests.


On the petrodollar, though, something I hadnt considered: what happens when renewables take over the energy market? Dollar value will plummet, making me think we'll do whatever we need to make sure oil exporting nations not only continue to sell a lot of oil, but to do so in dollars.

Saddam was gonna do so in Euros. Invasion.
Gaddafi was gonna do so in gold. Invasion.

I think it's unclear, protecting our interest after WW2 clearly benefited every US citizens, how much does it do it today? It's hard to quantify in my opinion.

The US is blatantly supporting Al-Qaeda & the Islamic State in Syria, even now going so far as to provide them with close air support.

ISIS has promised to slaughter & enslave all 300,000 civilians that are surrounded in Deir Ezzor. The USA just killed 100 people that were defending them!

I'm so disgusted by this I wouldn't even know where to begin.

We need to find a way to educate Americans about how their government is supporting terrorism.

The problem is, nobody cares.




In terms of lives thats been lost its a holocaust. Its an industrialized, and systematic eradication of life thats using confusion and terror to turn everyone upon one another, and they use the media with striking effectiveness to cover up what theyre doing. Its like when hitler made mock ups of towns in the concentration camps for the media. Only its the media thats presenting a dialogue that isnt reflective of reality. All the major countries are also doing extensive PR campaigns and flooding the internet with propaganda. Theres entire branchs of governments popping into existence whos only operative is to influence the public and keep them subdued, about the war thats raging, climate change, resource shortages. Its insane.

The US is trying to weaken the Syrian government so that after the war with ISIS the Kurds and possibly others have a shot at overthrowing the Syrian government (which is a harsh terrible middle east dictatorship).

Of course, you all know how well overthrowing governments always turns out...

So, this base that "coalition forces" just bombed the shit out of happens to be one of the only Eastern Syrian cities not to be overrun by ISIS. In fact, Deir Ezzor was the most successful military outpost holding off ISIS for over a year.

And we, oops, bombed them.


First off, does anyone really think we accidentally bombed a city thats been a Syrian army position for years? Does anyone really think we convinced Denmark and Australia to make the same accident?



I reeeeaaallllyyyyy dont want this to get moved to the conspiracy sub, but I think its pretty clear that the West is aiding and abetting ISIS in order to destabilize Syria (Iran's last ally).


Thoughts?




Well I mean, as long as it's an accident right?

I'm not taking Assad's word for anything, just figured it was relevant to the thread :shrug:


But yeah, seems to me the big wigs stand to profit the most from an Assad-less Syria, and taking out a major ISIS roadblock in the East with the excuse of "oops" reeks of horseshit.

Obama loves ISIS.....'he stands with the muslims' to use his own words.  And this is what benghazi was about, the obama administration was running guns--specifically shoulder held surface to air missles--to the rebels.

That's why the coverup is so huge.

Honestly wouldnt surprise me. But this isnt happening because of Obama's personal feelings towards Islam. Its happening because those who really have the power want it to be that way.
