Subject: "How America Made ISIS" Re: good guys/bad guys lies and
hypocrisy
This writing is more or less on the original topic of American group thievery from yesterday, in which our attack on the Ukraine was one example. We just haven't gotten as far as creating the full mess yet in the Ukraine/Russia part of the world.
This article is worth spending a bit of careful time on, just for its excellent review of facts that we've been living through for the past few years in our relationship with a different part of the world, keeping in mind the original point of it all, which was mainly to steal oil, as of course most of us know by now, never mind the picture that some of the bankers and politicians created for us.
