Why don't you support the troops and bring them home

By Christopher R Rice Underground Newz


I just read that Chuck Hagel, remember him? And about 50 other top ranking US officials sent Obama a cable with their 'displeasure' that he hasn't removed Assad in Syria.

Oh my gawd Becky, I can't believe the audacity of these lunatics that hold power in our country. Could you, if you would, imagine for just one second another country entering the Civil War in the United States on behalf of the confederates, the rebels. And killing Lincoln, because he didn't fight fair against the rebels.

Because my friends that is exactly what is going on. The US claims that Syria is in the middle of a civil war and we had nothing to do with it. I call Bullsh*t.

The US, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar admit to training, funding and creating the rebel, terrorist groups that are attacking and fighting Assad right now, including ISIS.

Remember the IRA? We, the US, created ISIS. You can lie to yourselves and believe otherwise but who are you trying to convince? Yourself!

But regardless, ISIS and Al Qaeda are both non state actors, meaning they have no country. They are terrorist. Bring the damn troops home, we have a home grown terrorist organization ourselves.

I know ya'll like to pretend that Christians are better, than Muslims and anyone else. But again, I call Bullsh*t. The KKK are Christians and the KKK are terrorist responsible for bombing churches and babies.

Trump runs around sayin' why don't moderate Muslims turn in their radicals before they do this crazy sh*t. But then I wonder why don't moderate Christians turn in Christian fanatics before they walk into a church and kill everyone there just because they are black and want to start a race war.

Then it came to me. Like a bolt of lightning out of the sky. Let the KKK fight ISIS.

I know the military industrial complex will pry try to kill me for saying such things. After all there's billions of dollars at stake. But those are our tax dollars and I say we vote on this. Send the Marines and keep bombing Assad at a cost of millions and millions of dollars or just send the KKK to Syria.

Let them ride around in their robes. Burn a few crosses and lynch a few people they think dress funny. Let the KKK fight ISIS and bring the troops home.

Now when you first saw that title you pry thought I'd lost my cotton pickin mind. But besides all of the money we'd save there are plenty of other benefits to my plan you maybe over looking. But just open your mind up to the possibilities.

I know we've tried for decades to rid ourselves of the Klan, but it's not working. Why not use what we got.

Stop trying to fight a war with a bunch of camel herders that don't even have a Navy, an Air force or a military budget. It's not working, get a clue.

Or keep flushing billions of dollars down the toilet that could've been spent here at home, on Americans. On roads, schools, hospitals, parks. Beefing up Social Security, you name it. Not so crazy is it?

Boston marathon bombing, San Bernardino massacre, Orlando massacre, we pay the FBI, CIA, NSA, TSA and the Department of Homeland Security how much each year? Too damn much.

Of course the FBI would like to point to their successes. They claim to have stopped over a dozen terrorist plots. The problem, well there's two actually. First, the terrorist that were stopped by the FBI couldn't light a match on their own. They had neither the means, the know how nor the funds to carry through with their threats. Upon further inspection, every one of these cases required the FBI providing the plans, the bombs, explosives or weapons and the money to purchase them.

All the while real terrorist have gone on committing horrendous acts of violence with obviously nothing standing in their way.

So what are the solutions of the greatest minds in America? Trump has two solutions, one limit immigration and if there had only been someone with a gun, and they happened to be able to shoot the terrorist before any of this happened, then it could've been prevented.

With lame ass solutions like this I bet ya'll can't wait till he's commander in chief, huh?

Then the other brilliant mind in America says that she will ban assault weapons and increase the terrorism watch list.

But we already know that a ban on assault weapons will only keep them out of law abiding citizens hands not the criminals. So this sounds like more lame ass BS to me.

But be forewarned America, if either one of these crooks gets into the White House they both plan on turning America into a police state. Mark my words.

The troops, does anybody here remember the troops? Remember sending them into the wrong country and torturing a bunch of Iraqi's that had nothing to do with 9/11?

Remember that when the British did this same torture crap in Ireland that it created the IRA, a homegrown terrorist organization responsible for bombings and other so called terrorist acts?

Related article: History repeats: Did Abu Gharib happen again

Remember a candidate that promised to end the wars and bring the troops home? How long has this war gone on? And your leaders see no end in sight, do they?


All of the bums that you elected also own stocks in defense contractors so ending the war would actually cost them money, wouldn't it? But then if it wasn't for Underground Newz where else would you get this knowledge? I dunno, since I'm the only one that ever reports on it.

ISIS Terror Threat to US Targets 'High,' Say Officials

ISIS Terror Threat to US Targets 'High,' Say Officials
by , and NBC News


ISIS, the Islamist terror group that now controls much of Syria and Iraq, poses an “extremely high” terror threat to U.S. targets, and has the bomb-making skills and foreign fighters needed to strike U.S. and other Western interests, according to multiple U.S. intelligence officials.

“While trying to rank threats or compare them to previous threat periods is a hazardous endeavor,” said one former U.S. counterterrorism official, “the current threat coming out of ISIS -- and Syria more broadly -- is extremely high.” While the opposition in Syria and Iraq is diverse, said the official, there are “sub elements” within it that are “especially worrisome because of their commitment to attack the West.”

Another senior counterterrorism official added that in recent weeks, “ISIS has accumulated tens of millions in wealth, large amounts of military equipment and ordnance, and has expanded the safe haven in which it operates.” During this same period, the number of potential U.S. targets in the region –- meaning U.S. military personnel -- has increased.

The FBI tells NBC News that it is investigating “a handful” of individuals who have traveled to Syria from the Minneapolis region.
 
British officials say their concern about domestic terrorism from ISIS and other foreign fighters in Syria is higher due to the larger number of British residents who have traveled back and forth to Syria. They estimate 400 to 500 British “foreign fighters,” including Muslim converts, have gone to Syria, and about two thirds have come back to the U.K.

Said one expert, “The number of potential attackers is significantly greater than we have seen from any other safe haven since 9/11.”

ISIS has also not been degraded by the kind of military action, including drone strikes, that has killed militants in Afghanistan, Yemen and Somalia.

“The lack of U.S-led disruptive activity means that elements in Syria and Iraq have greater freedom to plot than in any other safe haven,” said the expert.

FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force has reportedly been investigating at least 15 young residents of the Minneapolis-St. Paul area over the past year, according to a spokesman with U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger reported Minneapolis Public Radio News (MPR).

An ad appearing on Craigslist Wednesday warned residents of San Diego of a new attack against the gay community in the wake of the Orlando, Florida terror attack early Sunday morning.

The screenshot of the ad, applauding was sent in to the local ABC News affiliate, 10 News, and local police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation are investigating.
The ad screenshot posted on 10 News reads:
“Orlando was long overdue. Cleanse your community of the the filth that gives decent gay men and women a bad name. Those people were walking diseases, bug chasers, and thank god for AIDS and 9-11 and now Orlando. San Diego you are next …”
The source of the ad was not revealed and it was not clear if it has yet been learned as law enforcement investigates. It did appear that the ad listed the age of the poster as 33 on the right side of the page. 10 News reported that the viewer that sent the screenshot in found the ad in Craigslist’s men-seeking-men section for San Diego. The post has since been flagged and removed.

The header of the ad read, “We need more Orlando’s (sic) (San Diego).”
 
Local military families are taking steps to protect themselves after the faces, names and addresses of about 100 service members, including some from San Diego, were posted online by a group called the Islamic State Hacking Division.
 
In the threat, the group asked that attacks be carried out against members of the military conducting airstrikes on ISIS.
 
One of the ships listed was San Diego-based aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson.
 
A local military spouse, who did not want to reveal her identity for safety reasons, told NBC 7 she was concerned as soon as she heard about the posting.
 
“It was frightening, very frightening,” the woman said. “My gut reaction, are we on that list because my husband is active duty?”
 
She said she and her active-duty husband changed their social media accounts and eliminated any pictures or references to the military. Their privacy settings are switched so only friends and family can see their accounts.
 
The DOD says there is no indication there has been a data breach. Many of the images of the service members can be found on public military websites.
 
But without specifics and with limited resources, the FBI says they can't protect every member threatened. The fear is that a lone wolf who sympathizes with ISIS might carry out an attack, similar to the one in Canada.

The question can't be ignored. Could what happened in Paris happen in San Diego?

His name is Tony Perry, the intrepid Los Angeles Times reporter who has been to Iraq seven times, to Afghanistan seven times. He's obviously a journalist who knows a lot about the threat posed by those who wish to cause harm.

Question one: Can this happen in San Diego? 

"The FBI has said that San Diego is a target rich environment for terrorists ... ISIS capabilities and their level of brutally is evolving," Perry said.

San Diego ranks number four for the risk of homegrown terror, according to the Department of Homeland Security. 

The National Counter Terrorism Center also said San Diego County's large Arab and Muslim population, our proximity to the border and strong Military presence increase the chances of a terror attack and then there's this concerning the targeting of our Military.

Question two: It is two far fetched to ask if sleeper ISIS cells are already here?

"We have had people arrested in San Diego County who are on their way to Syria to fight on behalf of the Jehadists. So no, I don't think that's too far fetched. We're not out of the woods. We're in for what Obama said, we're in for a thousand year war and this is just the beginning of it."

Islamic State video makes direct threats against Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey

Jessica Guynn USA Today


SAN FRANCISCO — A video purportedly made by supporters of the Islamic State makes direct threats against Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey for combating terrorism on their Internet platforms.
 
The 25-minute propaganda video was released by a group calling itself "the sons of the Caliphate army." In it, photographs of both technology leaders are targeted by bullets. The video was spotted by Vocativ deep web analysts on the social media service Telegram, which is used by ISIS.

The extremist group says it's responding to growing efforts by Facebook and Twitter to suspend accounts and remove posts that the social media services say incite violence and promote terrorism.

The video shows hackers changing profile accounts and posting Islamic State propaganda. They allege they hacked more than 10,000 Facebook accounts, more than 150 Facebook groups and more than 5,000 Twitter profiles. "Many of these accounts have been given to supporters," the video says.

Twitter declined to comment. Facebook could not be reached for comment.
Internet companies are under growing pressure to more effectively police the presence of the extremist group  in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris and in San Bernardino County.

The Islamic State — also known as ISIL or ISIS — use popular Internet services such as Twitter and Facebook to spread propaganda, to attract and train new recruits and celebrate attacks.

"We don’t want people doing that kind of stuff on Facebook," Zuckerberg said on stage at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this week. 

"If we have opportunities to basically work with governments and folks to make sure that there aren’t terrorist attacks then we’re going to take those opportunities and we feel a pretty strong responsibility to help make sure that society is safe," Zuckerberg said.

Twitter said earlier this month that it suspended 125,000 accounts connected to the Islamic State over the past six months. It was the first time Twitter shared specifics on the number of accounts it has deleted. 

Twitter's strategy is working, according to a study from George Washington University.

But Veryan Khan, editorial director at the Terrorism Research and Analysis Consortium, a private firm that collects information on terrorism, says though Twitter may have made a dent, "the bounce back for the Islamic State will be fairly effortless."

"The Islamic State has been preparing their sympathizers for this type of event. Loads of Just Paste Its and Dump To bins as well as 'how to' videos have been circulating over this month on how to create dozens of backup accounts easily including creating false working phone numbers for those using Tor," she said.

Sons of the Caliphate is a small offshoot of the Cyber Caliphate that analysts speculate is a "teen" or "apprentice" division.

Khan says this is the first time an Islamic State-linked group has made a threat — at least publicly — against Zuckerberg. But these groups have made similar threats against Twitter in the past. 

After Twitter began cracking down on terrorists in 2014, it received death threats, the company's then CEO told Vanity Fair at the time.

Costolo said ISIL fighters threatened to "assassinate" him and other Twitter employees.

"That's a jarring thing for anyone to deal with," he said.

In March 2015, the Islamic State threatened Dorsey, Twitter's co-founder and chairman, and all Twitter employees for shutting down accounts. The group claimed that Dorsey and Twitter had started a "war" with Islamic State and Twitter employees had "become an official target to ISIS soldiers and supporters."

A slide in the recently released video read: "To Mark and Jack, founders of Twitter and Facebook and to their Crusader government. You announce daily that you suspended many of our accounts. And to you we say: Is that all you can do? You are not in our league. If you close one account we will take 10 in return and soon your names will be erased after we delete you (sic) sites, Allah willing, and will know that we say is true. #Sons_Caliphate_Army."

Kurdish forces rescue 16-year-old Swedish girl from Islamic State

By The Washington Post

Kurdish fighter Irbil, Iraq

BAGHDAD — Kurdish special forces have rescued a 16-year-old Swedish girl from Islamic State militants near the Iraqi city of Mosul, Kurdish authorities said Tuesday.

The operation, which took place Feb. 17, came after Sweden requested assistance in finding and freeing the girl.
 
She will be transferred to Swedish authorities to return home “once necessary arrangements” are made, the semi-autonomous Kurdish region’s security council said in a statement.
 
Some 300 Swedes have left to join extremist groups in Iraq and Syria over the past three years, according to Sweden’s security agency. Recruiters often prey on teenagers, grooming them online or in the community.
 
The girl was “misled” and lured to Syria by an Islamic State member in Sweden, before later travelling to Mosul, the Kurdish statement said.
 
She was the same teenager that Swedish press reports said had gone missing in Syria after running away from her foster home with her 19-year-old boyfriend last year, according to a Kurdish security official, who declined to be named because of the sensitivity of the information.
 
Swedish press reports said the girl, then 15, disappeared from Boras, near Gothenburg, on May 31, and was six months pregnant at the time. The Kurdish statement, however, gave no mention of a baby.
 
The girl told her family that she was married in an Islamic ceremony to her boyfriend and they had joined the al-Qaeda affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra in Syria.
However, the couple was captured by the Islamic State in northern Aleppo in August, the family said.
 
Her mother told Sweden’s Expressen newspaper that the Islamic State had not recognized the couple’s marriage and separated them. She talked to her family after being loaned a cell phone, the newspaper said. It is unclear how she ended up near Mosul, in neighboring Iraq.
 
The rescue was a purely Kurdish operation, the Kurdish security official said.
In October, Kurdish and U.S. special forces carried out a joint raid near the Iraqi town of Hawijah, freeing 69 prisoners but failing to find Kurdish soldiers they hoped to rescue.

The Canadian Model Fighting ISIS In Syria Tells Us What It's Like to Be On the Frontline

By Allan Smith                      

Hanna Bohman has been fighting ISIS in Syria on and off for most of 2015, and she hasn’t been impressed.

She said that as fighters, the Islamic State militants have “mostly been a disappointment.”

“Their numbers don’t seem that big and they’re eager to run away,” she told INSIDER in an email. “I suspect most of the experienced fighters have been consolidated in Mosul and Raqqa, and that’s where the big fights will be.”


She said that ISIS has successfully made themselves seem bigger and scarier than they are in reality through social media.

Although the group recently claimed responsibility for terrorist attacks that killed hundreds in Paris, Beirut, Baghdad, and Ankara and over the Sinai Peninsula, its promise of statehood is quickly diminishing, The New York Times reports.

“They’re not some giant, holy juggernaut of ultimate damnation for unbelievers,” she said. “They’re just a bunch of filthy, mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging pigs who run away at the first sign of resistance. Really nothing more than a thorn in the side.”

A former Canadian model who’s also known as Tiger Sun, Bohman, 46, is one of dozens of Westerners who have joined up with Kurdish nationalist groups to fight the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. She was personally inspired to fight after watching an ISIS propaganda video featuring a Canadian who had gone to fight with the jihadists, she told the Daily Mail.

After recovering from a near-fatal motorcycle accident last year, Bohman, who had no prior combat experience, left Vancouver for Iraq in March. She joined up with the YPJ, the female fighting battalion of the People’s Protection Unit, a Kurdish nationalist fighting force.

Joining the YPJ was easy, she said, much easier than one would expect traveling from the West into the middle of war would be. Upon arriving in Iraq, she stayed in a safe house for a few days before taking a boat across the Tigris River into northeastern Syria.

She then received very brief training and was assigned to her first unit, though it didn’t see much action. Her role consisted mostly of watching over territory, and the only real threat was being the target of a suicide truck, according to Bohman. But once she transferred to a more experienced unit, she began to see fighting almost instantly.

“That’s where I was first shot at by a sniper while walking from the outhouse to our quarters,” she said. “We were a mobile [unit], so we moved around quite a bit and were part of a large offensive south of Til Temir.”

The most intense fighting she experienced was in the next unit she was a part of, albeit for a brief two days in June. Just one hour after joining the brigade, a German who was fighting with the group said they would be going to the front.

“It was a small group of six westerners and I was the only woman… but all of us, including the commander, were itching for a fight, so we went a bit rogue,” she said. “We became lost trying to find the front and thought we had accidentally pushed into Daesh country when we started seeing dead people lying on the roads. The drivers were frantically calling for help on their phones and radios, and the tension was the highest I’ve ever felt as we had no idea where Daesh was.”
 
The group made a “mad retreat” to get their bearings. The following morning, the six were ordered to take the city of Til Abyad, a northern Syrian city near the Turkish border that had been under ISIS’s control. Bohman, who posts videos of her endeavors with the YPJ on YouTube, uploaded a video prior to the start of the mission.

She laughed at how absurd it seemed.

 
But contrary to popular belief, life in Syria isn’t all about fighting, she explained. About “95%” of her time is spent sleeping, eating, cleaning, socializing, or being on guard.

“It’s not what people expect,” she said. “We’re not constantly locked in a life or death battle with bullets and mortars flying back and forth.”

Another misconception is that the real fight is against ISIS, she said.
“The real enemy is who Daesh works for,” she said, claiming that it’s really “Turkey’s genocidal [President Recep Tayyip] Erdogan… who will eventually turn Turkey into a dictatorship while trying to kill off the Kurds.”

Claims that Turkey supported the Islamic State go back more than a year, and it’s well-known that the Turkish government views the rise of Kurdish nationalism as a bigger threat to its security than the rise of ISIS.

After the Turkish military shot down a Russian plane last week, Russian leaders claimed that they have proof that Erdogan’s own family was involved in smuggling ISIS oil into Turkey. Erdogan said he would resign if that claim was proven true, and insists that his regime is working to diminish the threat of ISIS in the region. US officials said their NATO allies have been “great” in the fight against the Islamic State.

According to Bohman, Westerners who left their countries and bypassed their governments to fight ISIS are what has inspired her most since joining the YPJ.

“There aren’t many of us, but we represent a genuine concern for humanity,” she said. “We believe in doing the right thing, in stopping evil, and helping the helpless. We are the tip of a sword made up of people from all around the world who will no longer wait for their governments to fail again. We are [bringing] the change we want to see.”

“Six of us against what was supposed to be more than 100 Daesh, but nonetheless, we jumped into a tank and off we went,” she said.

As they closed in on the battle, her unit met up with 12 Kurds who were already in position near a bridge leading into the city.

The Kurds would have to take that bridge in order to take the city.

“We spent the rest of the day fighting for that bridge, which was also the last time a sniper would take a shot at me, the bullet passing so close over my head I felt it,” she said. “We held the bridge over night while reinforcements arrived, and the next day they took the city, which by now had mostly been abandoned by Daesh.”

She briefly returned to Canada after the battle, stricken by malnutrition after having lost almost 30 pounds since joining the YPJ. But almost as soon as she returned to Vancouver, she was itching to get back to the fight in Rojava, the name given to what is considered Western Kurdistan. She went back in early September and remains with the YPJ today.

Saudi Arabia: Friend or Foe?

By Ted Galen Carpenter


One striking feature of the first debate featuring the top tier GOP presidential candidates was how many of them described Saudi Arabia and its allies in the Persian Gulf as “friends” of the United States.  And clearly that is a bipartisan attitude.  Obama administration officials routinely refer to Saudi Arabia as a friend and ally, and one need only recall the infamous photo of President Obama bowing to Saudi King Abdullah to confirm Washington’s devotion to the relationship with Riyadh.


It is a spectacularly unwise attitude.  As Cato adjunct scholar Malou Innocent and I document in our new book, Perilous Partners: The Benefits and Pitfalls of America’s Alliances with Authoritarian Regimes, Saudi Arabia is not only an odious, totalitarian power, it has repeatedly undermined America’s security interests.

Saudi Arabia’s domestic behavior alone should probably disqualify the country as a friend of the United States.  Riyadh’s reputation as a chronic abuser of human rights is well deserved. Indeed, even as Americans and other civilized populations justifiably condemned ISIS for its barbaric practice of beheadings, America’s Saudi ally executed 83 people in 2014 by decapitation.


In addition to its awful domestic conduct, Riyadh has consistently worked to undermine America’s security.  As far back as the 1980s, when the United States and Saudi Arabia were supposedly on the same side, helping the Afghan mujahedeen resist the Soviet army of occupation, Saudi officials worked closely with Pakistan’s intelligence agency to direct the bulk of the aid to the most extreme Islamist forces.  Many of them became cadres in a variety of terrorist organizations around the world once the war in Afghanistan ended.

Saudi Arabia’s support for extremists in Afghanistan was consistent with its overall policy.  For decades, the Saudi government has funded the outreach program of the Wahhabi clergy and its fanatical message of hostility to secularism and Western values generally.  Training centers (madrassas) have sprouted like poisonous ideological mushrooms throughout much of the Muslim world, thanks to Saudi largesse.  That campaign of indoctrination has had an enormous impact on at least the last two generations of Muslim youth.  Given the pervasive program of Saudi-sponsored radicalism, it is no coincidence that 16 of the 19 hijackers on 9-11 were Saudi nationals.


Riyadh also has shown itself to be a disruptive, rather than a stabilizing, force in the Middle East.  Not only has Saudi Arabia conducted military interventions in Bahrain and Yemen, thereby eliminating the possibility of peaceful solutions to the bitter domestic divisions in those countries, the Saudi government helped fund and equip the factions in Syria and Iraq that eventually coalesced to form ISIS.  Although Saudi officials may now realize that they created an out-of-control Frankenstein monster, that realization does not diminish their responsibility for the tragedy.


In light of such a lengthy, dismal track record, one wonders why any sensible American would regard Saudi Arabia as a friend of the United States.  We do not need and should not want such repressive and untrustworthy “friends.”
