Kind of makes one wonder who the financial backers are. Speculation, it's not only Arab money.

Who are the beneficiaries if the US declares war?

Who are the beneficiaries if the US takes it's toys and goes home?

You didn't even kill a soldier, you killed a non-combatent. How brave.
I don't think this terrorist faction is in it for FB friends.

The US should stop sponsoring one group of Muslims to fight another group of Muslims. This never worked.
Muslims are not Koreans.

They are very stoppable.
I venture a guess there are substantially fewer of them than there are people affiliated with gangs in the US.

Sympathizers, supporters and recruitable are probably a 1/3 to a 1/2 of the Muslim world.

The actual jihadists are small in number but can be replaced forever.

Just have to keep mowing.

Yeah, I read that "Bush did it defense" - but TIME, Washington Post, Daily Beast, Du Monde and the former Commander of Camp Bucca disagree with Obama's defense department and the knee jerk protect Team O. They all claim he was not just held for a couple of months - but was held until 2009.

By the way ..... I never said "Obama released him", I just went with the mainstream news stories and not the "Blame Bush" crowd. Who really believes the "BUSH did it" garbage after almost 6 years of finger pointing by Team O. It's way over-done, nobody is buying that sad tale anymore.

The only thing I can say is this whole ISIS "terrorist group" sounds very fishy to me. I wouldn't be surprised if the U.S. or other Western countries finance it from behind the scenes. Why do I say that? Because when you understand how the Global Elite (the western globalists) use occult symbolism (group named after the Egyptian goddess Isis), you start seeing the symbolism they use in everything. Just like they put the Eye of Horus on the back of the dollar bill (another Egyptian symbol).....None of this stuff is random or a coincidence. So don't take what the media tells you at face value (conservative or liberal). There's a lot more that isn't being said, for sure.
