USA supported IS and other terrorist groups by $ 1bn from 2015

[trofimus]

Weapons and other support in the value of $ 1bn were given to various islam terrorist groups in the middle East.

If you add what these groups stole from Iraq/Syrian army you can imagine where are they getting the new modern weapons from.

We just made an arms deal with Saudi Arabia, a country who funds Islamic terrorism.... I thought Hillary lost

She did... but some folks have the need to make headlines to look important.

So, the bottom line is when someone gets in that campaigns on putting the country first, it always gets turned in to putting their legacy first.

This is true for all politicians cause they want to be re-elected and they want the masses to like them. The ones that mean well somehow get changed when they get to DC.

You know what they say - you can tell when a politician is lying when their mouth is moving!

No matter who our President is, we are stuck with Saudi Arabia. Geopolitical realities make it an unfortunate necessity.

But I would argue we are not stuck with these dudes.

I'm disgusted that this is where our tax dollars are going. Call me naive, but I can see a way around directly funding terrorist groups.
