Iraq has finally joined the 21st century.
Instead of killing for religion, they are no killing for profit.
The terrorists are running out of cash to fund their attacks? Hmm? How is that possible? Are Iran and Saudi having financial difficulties or has the corrupt Iraqi government just stolen so much that nothing is trickling down to the henchmen on the bottom?
Hmmm? Me wonders? Perhaps we have done the supply and demand thing. We have killed, maimed or arrested so many bomb makers and planters that the price is going up.
Capitalism at its finest. Every war has an exchange of cultures. We have learned not to care about bad guys getting killed and they have learned to charge a little bit more for their services. Yeah.....interesting times...
Finallly, some good old fashion greed. Everyone hates a thief. Catch the blokes and send them to jail.
If they are Sunni, turn them over to the Iraqi Police (Shia). If they are Shia, turn them over to the Iraqi Army (Sunni). For sure they will not be doing it again.
he campaign to delegitimize Israel continues. Bloody knifes held by the thugs who attacked Israeli soldiers have been cropped out of photos. "Eyewitness" accounts of those claiming that the "peace activists" did not engage in violence continue to be broadcast despite the contradictory video evidence. And many in the media ignore the fact that Israel facilitates the delivery of true humanitarian goods into Gaza every day.
Together we ARE making a difference. We have seen stories in the major media that do tell the truth. By spreading video footage, images and cold hard facts around the world via our website and our social media networks -- the story is being told.
Lmk, if the blockade runners were allowed to get close enough to stab the commandos, then the Israelis are really losing their touch.
First, there should have been fire boats there to sweep anyone from the decks with high pressure water and if that didn't work, machine gun fire would have done the trick.
Blockade runners know that they are risking their lives but everyone is so PC. Israel is at war with the dipsticks that run Gaza. The people of Gaza need to be liberated from the gangsters. I say that either Egypt or Israel needs to invade and take over. I would prefer Egypt so that there is not religious BS, but the status quo sucks. Kind of like if we would have chased the NAZIs back to Germany and left them to feed like vultures on the poor and powerless Germans.
BUT if the world doesn't want and end to the fighting, then this BS will drag on until someone drops a big one and solves the problem for the survivors.
