Politicians/tribal leaders have been using religion as a tool to control their masses. since forever.

Then there's that pesky currency thing.

Sadam/Iraq intended to quote and settle oil in currencies other than USD.

Iran quotes/settles oil trades in currencies other than USD.

Most experts view it as a semi-secret alliance between the US , Sauds and that action taken against Iraq and Iran was due to that.

NBC?

How many times did Lester Holt kiss that dictator's ass? We all know the MSM loves the Islamic terrorists who brutally run that country.


And of course the Leftists completely over look their treatment of women, Gays & Lesbians, and other atrocities because Obama foolishly gave them appeasement for his paper "legacy".

No surprise, as Obama played both sides. Secular Democrats Love him, and so did religous Islam. Of course Secularist are the greatest enemy of Islam, 2nd only to those who leave the religion.
