Since 1979, in Afghanistan against the Communist government and Iran, with the overthrow of the pro-USA Shah, Islamic extremism as been used to destabilize various Greater Middle East nations by the CIA at the behest of the USA government.
Egypt 1981
Syria 1982.
The 1994 establishment of the Afghan Taliban(a re-branding of the Afghan Mujaheddin)by the CIA through the Pakistan ISI.
The sponsorship of Islamic terrorism in Algeria and Libya in the 1990's
The 1993 false flag bombing of the WTC as the first major "Islamic' terrorist act on USA soil by the USA deep State with Israel.
The 1995 transfer of Islamic terrorists from Afghanistan into Bosnia, with the aid of Mullah Iran by the CIA.
The 1998 transfer of Islamic terrorists from Afghanistan into Kosovo by the CIA.
The creation of the 'al-CIA-duh' meme by the CIA and complicit Western media in the late 1990's, along with false flag terrorist operations in East Africa and the Middle East to give the fake CIA created organisation credence as a 'global organisation' run by Osama Bin Laden (aka Tim Osman) a CIA linked agent since the late 1970's from a wealthy Saudi Billionaire family, linked to the construction business and the Saudi government, and of course Saudi Intelligence.
In 2000 in the USA the very important Project for a New American Century Policy document would be published and signed by the Jewish Neocons.The document called for the total domination of the earth by the USA state using military power, and the destruction of rivals to American global dominance around the world under the catch phrase of 'Full Spectrum Dominance". The document understood that with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the USA was the sole hyper-power in the world, and that this was an unique opportunity for the USA to dominate the entire globe. The document called for a more aggressive foreign policy to be implemented by a future right-wing government in the USA, through a False flag 'Pearl Harbor' like incident.
9/11 in 2001 carried out by the Pentagon and the CIA with Guidance from Israel.The covert plan from the Pentagon/CIA would initiate several wars of conquest using the EXCUSE of fighting Islamic terrorism (originally created by the CIA).....THE PLAN FAILS....as the targeted countries especially Afghanistan and Iraq offer resistance AND SACRIFICE to the foreign occupiers and the CORRUPTION and INEPTITUDE of the Pentagon and the CIA.2 UTTERLY CRIMINAL organisations more interested in stealing money from the USA taxpayer through bogus 'security' programs, pedophilia, narco-peddling from Asia and South America all of which necessitates FAILURE in stated policy objectives to cover their latent criminality.
October 2001 Afghanistan is invaded and occupied, as planned by General 'Mad Dog' MATTIS in the 1990's at the Pentagon, well before 9/11. A homosexual with an ability to talk through his faggotty arse with gross stupidity, and moron speak which energizes fellow butch gay low IQ idiot fucks, in the USA and else where. Example...and its doesn't require a lot of effort to debunk...or research with this faggot talk style:
"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn’t wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain’t got no manhood left anyway. So it’s a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it’s quite fun to fight them, you know. It’s a hell of a hoot. It’s fun to shoot some people. I’ll be right up there with you. I like brawling.”
Boring ragheads. Too much on.
Much more superior....more cla--ass
Yet more Jewish civilization
When the Jews COLLAPSED the Soviet Union in 1991, with the aid of Pizza Gorbachev and drunk Yeltsin, it became fashionable for Russian men to copy the mafia culture with tattoos and the women to dress like prostitutes.
So 'general' the USA invaded Afghanistan to protect Ariana's women?

So 'general' the USA invaded Afghanistan to protect Ariana's women?
The USA invades sovereign countries to protect the women?
The Pentagon is now into protecting women...in foreign countries.
The Pentagon is now into protecting women...in foreign countries.
Where in the USA constitution does it say the USA needs to invade countries to protect women?
Where in the UN charter does it say the USA needs to invade sovereign countries.
Dare I say it, where in secular MODERN post-Industrial liberal morality, or even in the Christian faith does it say the USA needs to invade a foreign country to protect the women.....and in the process kill 100,000 innocent civilians or in Iraq's case 1,500,000 civilians including many women raped and murdered, by the brave USA warriors.
Why doesn't the generals morality cover the rest of the 50% of the population of boys and men, and old men? Crushing the testicles of boy children in front of the parents to get information about the Taliban， this is moral? Killing innocent farmer boys and dropping an ak-47 on their side as a confirmed kill by the hero warrior is also great work? Torturing young innocent men naked in Bagram through male rape, making private sex videos later to be enjoyed as snuff movies, and using dogs is sexually satiating to the faggot but is that moral?
Deceptively, converting a war devastated state into one giant narco state plantation in the best traditions of the British colonial era and the deep south of the USA in the 19th century, where the Pentagon guard, protect and promote OPIUM CULTIVATION by poor desperate Afghan farmers with no alternative income........This is moral and right?
Using the resources of the CIA/Pentagon in Ariana then to ship the Afghan Opium into Heroin into Pakistan...and then India, and then the rest of the world from Karachi. Into Iran, Russia and Ukraine, Eastern Europe using various CIA mafia networks......this is moral and right?
Using the resources of the CIA/Pentagon in Ariana then to ship the Afghan Opium into Heroin into Western Europe and North America using various CIA mafia networks, and the USA airforce transport planes......this is moral and right?
Setting up a bogus 'Controlled Opposition' called the Taliban which is managed by the coolies in the ISI as an excuse to be in Afghanistan? Is that moral and right?
What what WHAT????? You've never personally heard about these rumors, gossip and WAR CRIMES??? Just like Herman Goring didn't hear about the Nazi concentration camps? Rights....But war is profitable for you in the manner of Goring who liked collecting STOLEN European art? You are now a multi-millionaire....so this low IQ faggot talk and war crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq (Fallujah) 'profits for pain' works for you.
Have you had sex with women，“general"? Do you understand the true beauty of women? Would you understand them so much that you would break International law to go into a sovereign country and deviously occupy it, and conduct unspeakable war crimes?.....AGAINST innocent men, boys and women？

2003 the USA invades Iraq illegally.
2011 the USA invades Libya using Islamic terrorists.
2011 the USA destabilizes Tunisia using Islamic terrorists and rent a mobs.
2011 the USA destabilizes Egypt using Islamic terrorists and rent a mobs.
2011 the USA destabilizes Syria using Islamists.
2014 the USA creates ISIS and sends them into Syria and Iraq.
This state sponsorship of Islamic terrorism idea does not originate from the USA, but is a copy of a British Imperial design to control, and divide and rule colonial nations for the British Empire.
It is the British Empire which promoted the House of Saud into power originally, and still maintains close relations with that country.The al-Saud family are originally Iraqi Jews from Basra who moved into/ near Jeddah in the 1750's, and became defacto highway robbers attacking Muslim pilgrims from the Greater Middle on their way to Makkah and Medina for Haj. This aspect is not important...Arab Bedouin like tribes attacking fellow Arabs under banditry and petty tribal rivalry.
What is significant his the al-Sauds peculiar brand of puritanical Jewish Wahabism/Salafism..under whose sharia law allows the Saudi family to lead very unislamic lives visiting whores of the world, alcohol consumption to excess, palaces, Western luxury, casino's, love for Israel, security cooperation with Israel, destruction of historical holy sites in Makkah and Medina to make way for 5-star luxury hotels under the guise of modernity...and WORST of all fulfilling the wishes of the USA to destabilize Muslim countries for the USA/Israel.
But for ordinary authentic Muslims, the Saudis offer a harsh unloving Wahabi Islam which emphasizes hatred and war against all.....through the promotion of Wahabi charities around the world, and the establishment of Madrasa schools, and finally the direct financing of terrorists from around the world.
The Iraqi Jewish Sasson's also moved out of Iraq and went to Mumbai in India in the 18th century, and became the kings of the Opium Trade under the British empire acting as important middle men who managed its cultivation in the plantations of India....then re-established the textile Industry in Gujarat and Maharashtra, 100 years after it was destroyed in Bengal by the British empire with modern machinery, and industrial practices....and then THEY moved to the UK and married into the Rothschild family.
The house of Saud did not move to London like the Sassons since with the aid of the British empire they controlled an entire country and Makkah and Medina, the two most holy sites of Islam, named after them SAUDI ARABIA, and with the help of the the USA FROM THE 1930'S AND MORE JEWISH NETWORKING....soon discovered they were sitting on the greatest oil reserves in the world...black gold.
From aangirfan:
At the start of World War I, a Jewish British officer, David Shakespeare, met with Ibn Saud, who was to become the first Saudi monarch.Shakespeare later led a Saudi army that defeated a tribe opposed to Ibn Saud.
In 1915, Ibn Saud met with the British envoy to the Gulf region, Bracey Cocas.
Cocas made the following offer to Ibn Saud: "I think this is a guarantee for your endurance as it is in the interest of Britain that the Jews have a homeland and existence, and Britain’s interests are, by all means, in your interest."
Ibn Saud replied: "Yes, if my acknowledgement means so much to you, I acknowledge thousand times granting a homeland to the Jews in Palestine or other than Palestine."
Two years later, British Foreign Secretary Lord Balfour, in a letter to Baron Walter Rothschild, a leader of the British Zionists, stated: "His Majesty’s government view with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people . . ."
The deal to set up Israel had the backing of the Turkish leader Kemal Ataturk, who was reportedly a crypto-Jew.
In 1932, the British put Ibn Saud into power as King of Saudi Arabia.The Sauds made Wahhabism the state religion of Saudi Arabia.
The current British foreign minister says that Saudi Arabia is a major sponsor of Islamic terrorism ...or in his diplomatic words."Proxy wars".(modern Islamic terrorism is state sponsored). He is of course correct....though too vague with the 100 year old ally. He is incorrect to state that the problem with Saudi Arabia funding of Islamic terrorism started yesterday with Syria. The Saudi Osama Bin Laden was recruited for terrorism from London in the late 1970's where he was relaxing and pretending to study.And ofcourse the UK will continue selling arms to Saudi Arabia so that it can wage war against its neighbors, and security equipment for the Saudi police so that they can 'control' the population for the corrupt Saudi family.
The UK will continue training 'al-CIA-duh' Islamic terrorists in Saudi Arabia and in the UK.
If nations around the world are genuinely concerned about dealing with Saudi state sponsored Islamic terrorism...'al-CIA-duh' ISIS...Jundallah...Taliban.....Turkestan Liberation Front.....The Muslim Brotherhood....Islamic Schools called Madrasa where future terrorists are indoctrinated and so called Islamic charities(Huma Abedin's parents in London)...they should STOP buying Saudi oil. Stop making state visits to Saudi Arabia.....pretending that all is well with the regime.

Stop making state visits to Saudi Arabia.....pretending that all is well with the regime.
Instead buy your oil and gas from Iran, and through trade deals make sure the purchase is made in your NATIONAL CURRENCY AND NOT THE DOLLAR then make sure that every cent of your currency that is given to Iran for the purchase of the oil is spent in exchange on goods and service exports to Iran from your country.Win win for all...and control of what the Iranian government spend their money on, along with Insurance cover for the shipping and transport.
With Saudi Arabia, the vast amount of petro-$ that nations give them is used to sponsor state organised terrorism which then kill innocent Afghans, Iranians, Iraqis, Syrians, Turks, Pakistanis, Indians...Indonesians...and...and Russians so on.The Saudis also sponsor the CIA and Pentagon on all black ops in the Greater Middle East.
But we have a strange paradox in that the Jewish Deep State in Russia pushes Putin to make state visits to Saudi Arabia; sign FTA's with Israel, give the worthless Jewish B-movie actor Steven Segal from Hollywood a precious Russian passport in the midst of all the Jewish created chaos to discuss oil market strategy....again, again ,and again even though Russia is not in OPEC...WHILST in return the Saudi's openly threaten in these oil forums with Putin that they will unleash Wahabi Sunni Islamic terrorism hell against Russia in the Sochi Games and every where else. How stupid of Putin. There are currently Saudi terrorists on Russian soil fighting with Islamic separatists against Russia, killing innocent Russian civilians, whilst Putin pretends all is normal. The crash of oil prices through Saudi over production is normal???...good for Russia.
On to Iran. Attempt at destabilization of Shia Iran through the Aga Khan in the 19th century...chased out of the country to India...who now lives in Europe. Then the direct recruitment of Shia mullahs as agents of the British empire, and opponents of modernism, the most famous one being Ruhollah Khomeini in the 1950's.
Egypt..the creation of the Islamic Brotherhood by the British Empire in the 1920's. The first mosque where political indoctrination will take place by the Muslim Brotherhood is in Cairo in 1928, is funded by the British empire.
In India the British establish the Muslim League in 1905..which will eventually lead to the creation of Pakistan. It is a British counter weight to the nationalist SECULAR SOCIALIST Congress Party run mainly by upper middle class Anglicized Hindu Indians. In the 1920's The British establish and create the RSS.
The British Empire funds the Nazi Party of Germany from 1919, through German military Intelligence, Jewish banking network, German cult groups, German Industry such as IG Farben and Krupps-Thiessen and the Catholic Bavarian Royal family which enjoys close relations with the British ruling elite.
The British create and fund Italian Fascism through Benito Mussolini, a former journalist and agent of MI-5 of the UK.
God knows what other extremist groups the British state had funded in the 19th and 20th century, when at one time it considered itself a great nation, and the greatest power on earth'''along with the grandiose ego that accompanied it with the requisite mischief around the world, to the detriment and death of 10's of millions.
London is the mother of all global terrorism.
May's irrelevant mistimed visit to the Gulf is a sorry attempt to relive the glorious past of Empire, especially when the ship is sinking in the UK. But it is no longer 1850, when the British Empire was at the Peak of its power.The Xenophobic reactionary Brexit vote won't make the UK great again in the manner of 1850...though it may make some of the older people feel unique and special compared to other Europeans( a significant pre-occupation of the English psyche with all its deep deep deep racism)
It could not have done what it has done to the Germans, Italians, Iranians, Asians and Arabs without a deep sense of racist hatred and contempt.

The Stop Arming Terrorists Act
By Rep. Tulsi Gabbard at Information Clearing House.
Washington, DC—Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (HI-02) introduced the Stop Arming Terrorists Act today. The legislation would prohibit the U.S. government from using American taxpayer dollars to provide funding, weapons, training, and intelligence support to groups like the Levant Front, Fursan al Ha and other allies of Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, al-Qaeda and ISIS, or to countries who are providing direct or indirect support to those same groups.
.
The legislation is cosponsored by Reps. Peter Welch (D-VT-AL), Barbara Lee (D-CA-13), Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA-48), and Thomas Massie (R-KT-04), and supported by the Progressive Democrats of America (PDA) and the U.S. Peace Council..
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard said, “Under U.S. law it is illegal for any American to provide money or assistance to al-Qaeda, ISIS or other terrorist groups. If you or I gave money, weapons or support to al-Qaeda or ISIS, we would be thrown in jail. Yet the U.S. government has been violating this law for years, quietly supporting allies and partners of al-Qaeda, ISIL, Jabhat Fateh al Sham and other terrorist groups with money, weapons, and intelligence support, in their fight to overthrow the Syrian government.[i]
.
.
“The CIA has also been funneling weapons and money through Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar and others who provide direct and indirect support to groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda. This support has allowed al-Qaeda and their fellow terrorist organizations to establish strongholds throughout Syria, including in Aleppo."
.
.
“A recent New York Times article confirmed that ‘rebel groups’ supported by the U.S. ‘have entered into battlefield alliances with the affiliate of al-Qaeda in Syria, formerly known as al Nusra.’ This alliance has rendered the phrase ‘moderate rebels’ meaningless. Reports confirm that ‘every armed anti-Assad organization unit in those provinces [of Idlib and Aleppo] is engaged in a military structure controlled by [al-Qaeda’s] Nusra militants.’
.
.
“A recent Wall Street Journal article reported that many rebel groups are ‘doubling down on their alliance’ with al Nusra. Some rebel groups are renewing their alliance, while others, like Nour al-Din al-Zinki, a former CIA-backed group and one of the largest factions in Aleppo are joining for the first time. “The Syria Conquest Front—formerly known as the al-Qaeda-linked Nusra Front—is deeply intermingled with armed opposition groups of all stripes across Syria’s battlefields.”
.
.
“The CIA has long been supporting a group called Fursan al Haqq, providing them with salaries, weapons and support, including surface to air missiles. This group is cooperating with and fighting alongside an al-Qaeda affiliated group trying to overthrow the Syrian government. The Levant Front is another so-called moderate umbrella group of Syrian opposition fighters. Over the past year, the United States has been working with Turkey to give this group intelligence support and other forms of military assistance. This group has joined forces with al-Qaeda’s offshoot group in Syria.
.
.
“This madness must end. We must stop arming terrorists. The Government must end this hypocrisy and abide by the same laws that apply to its’ citizens.
.
.
“That is why I’ve introduced the Stop Arming Terrorists bill—legislation based on congressional action during the Iran-Contra affair to stop the CIA’s illegal arming of rebels in Nicaragua. It will prohibit any Federal agency from using taxpayer dollars to provide weapons, cash, intelligence, or any support to al-Qaeda, ISIS and other terrorist groups, and it will prohibit the government from funneling money and weapons through other countries who are directly or indirectly supporting terrorists,” concluded Rep. Tulsi Gabbard.
.
.
Stephen Kinzer, a senior fellow at the Watson Institute for International Studies at Brown University, and award-winning author and journalist said, “The proposal to stop sending weapons to insurgents in Syria is based on the principle that pouring arms into a war zone only intensifies suffering and makes peace more difficult to achieve. Congress made a decision like this about the Nicaraguan contras during the 1980s. Aid to the contras was cut off by the Boland Amendment. The result was a peace process that finally brought an end to wars not only in Nicaragua, but also in El Salvador and Guatemala. This is the example we should be following. Cutting off arms shipments forces belligerents to negotiate. That is what we achieved in Nicaragua. It should be our goal in Syria as well.”
.
.
Donna Smith, Executive Director of Progressive Democrats of America said, "Progressive Democrats of America believes that it is fundamentally wrong for the United States to fund those groups or individuals aligned with al-Qaeda, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, ISIS, or other terrorist/extremist organizations. The 'Stop Arming Terrorists' bill authored by Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, of Hawaii's 2nd Congressional District, would help bring an end to the human tragedy unfolding in Syria where the haunting eyes of the innocent children of Aleppo call on us all to stop supporting those who threaten and kill them with ferocious intention. War is war, and terrorism is terrorism whether waged by the state or from external forces. PDA supports this measure."
.
.
Alfred Marder, President of the U.S. Peace Council said, “The U.S. Peace Council is honored to endorse and support the ‘Stop Arming Terrorists Bill’ as a major contribution to peace. This legislation will serve to galvanize the anti-war movement and the opposition to regime change policies that characterize our present foreign policy.”
.
.
Background: The Stop Arming Terrorists bill prohibits U.S. government funds from being used to support al-Qaeda, ISIS or other terrorist groups. In the same way that Congress passed the Boland Amendment to prohibit the funding and support to CIA backed-Nicaraguan Contras during the 1980’s, this bill would stop CIA or other Federal government activities in places like Syria by ensuring U.S. funds are not used to support al-Qaeda, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, ISIS, or other terrorist groups working with them. It would also prohibit the Federal government from funding assistance to countries that are directly or indirectly supporting those terrorist groups. The bill achieves this by:
- Making it illegal for any U.S. Federal government funds to be used to provide assistance covered in this bill to terrorists. The assistance covered includes weapons, munitions, weapons platforms, intelligence, logistics, training, and cash.
- Making it illegal for the U.S. government to provide assistance covered in the bill to any nation that has given or continues to give such assistance to terrorists.
- Requiring the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) to determine the individual and groups that should be considered terrorists, for the purposes of this bill, by determining: (a) the individuals and groups that are associated with, affiliated with, adherents to or cooperating with al-Qaeda, Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, or ISIS; (b) the countries that are providing assistance covered in this bill to those individuals or groups.
- Requiring the DNI to review and update the list of countries and groups to which assistance is prohibited every six months, in consultation with the House Foreign Affairs and Armed Services Committees, as well as the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
- Requiring the DNI to brief Congress on the determinations.
