The U.S. Ignored ISIS Threat To Hype Endless War On Terror by KURT NIMMO | INFOWARS.COM | JUNE 17, 2014 Globalists pretend they were taken by surprise
The corporate media, taking its cues in part from Foreign Policy, a magazine formerly owned by the misnamed Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, insists the gains of ISIS in Iraq took the establishment by surprise. “We got caught flat-footed. Period,” Daveed Gartenstein-Ross, described as a terrorism analyst and senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, who supposedly studies ISIS and other al Qaeda-linked groups, told the magazine last week. Gartenstein-Ross claims U.S. intelligence had no idea “ISIS was about to mount a major offensive to take over two more cities simultaneously.” “The intelligence agencies’ inability to predict the latest crisis in Iraq is likely to fuel critics of the Obama administration’s management of other global crises, including in Syria and Ukraine,” Shane Harris writes for FP. Even former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton insists she had no idea of the ISIS threat. Appearing at a Council on Foreign Relations shindig, Clinton said she was unaware of “the extent to which ISIS could be effective in seizing cities in Iraq and trying to erase boundaries to create an Islamic state.” This ignorance plays right into the neocon plan to keep the war on terror going indefinitely. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies is a prominent neocon think tank right up there with the American Enterprise Institute and the Hudson Institute, organizations that enthusiastically promoted “intelligence failures” (lies and fabrications) ahead of the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq by the Bush regime and subsequently maintained by Obama.
The corporate media has pushed the forever terror war for over a decade. Anything Gartenstein-Ross tells us should be taken with a large chunk of salt. He is the author of two books hyping the war on manufactured terror – Bin Laden’s Legacy: Why We’re Still Losing the War on Terror and Homegrown Terrorists in the U.S. and U.K. Peter Bergen, who penned The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict between America and Al Qaeda, insists “Daveed Gartenstein-Ross has written an analytically sharp, fluidly written account of al Qaeda and its affiliates in the post-bin Laden era. It makes for sobering and essential reading,” especially for neocons interested in keeping the war on terror and its myths chugging along. Ignored amidst all this feigned ignorance is the fact ISIS keeps books like an anal-retentive accountant. In March, the organization published al-Naba, its annual report. “The Arabic language report, over 400 pages long, was first published by the I’tisaam Media Foundation, ISIS’s main media arm, and then reposted online by secondary sources,”Alex Bilger writes for the Institute for the Study of War. “This report is the second known ISIS report publicizing the results of their military campaign in Iraq.” The repeated publication of consecutive annual reports indicates that the ISIS military command in Iraq has exercised command and control over a national theater since at least early 2012. ISIS in Iraq is willing and able to organize centralized reporting procedures and to publish the results of its performance to achieve organizational effects. Such organizational effects might include attracting the attention of potential donors to ISIS’s cause and also showing off an increasingly structured organization capable of more than just attacking haphazardly. Despite the supposed befuddlement of Hillary Clinton and U.S. intelligence agencies chewing through billions of dollars per year in the supposed effort to protect the American people from al-Qaeda bad guys, the report “describes its campaign for Ninewa as a main effort.” Ninewa, or the Nineveh Province, is where ISIS began its effort to carve out a caliphate earlier this month. As an elder statesperson and potential future president, a translation of the ISIS report should have been bedside reading for Clinton. It should have also landed on a CIA station desk within days of publication. But it didn’t – and for good reason. Had the United States anticipated the military advances of ISIS, it could have beefed up a woefully unprepared Iraqi military. Instead, it decided to be “flat-footed” and caught by surprise. This posture allows the government to mount a public relations campaign characterizing ISIS as a threat requiring renewed war on terror emphasis (and expenditure of trillions of additional dollars). It provides countless hours of media coverage complete with lurid photos of mass murder and hundreds of thousands of frightened refugees.
Sen Lindsey Graham, Sen. John McCain, Rep. Peter King and others are now warning in shrill and belligerent tones that if the American people do not wake from their slumber and get behind the war on terror, ISIS terrorists will engage in a murderous jihad in the homeland.
Poll: Majority Of Americans Object To Engaging In Fresh Iraq Conflict by STEVE WATSON | INFOWARS.COM | JUNE 17, 2014
Two thirds say 2003 invasion is to blame for current violence As the President announced that he is sending 300 troops to the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, an overwhelming majority of Americans have indicated that they want nothing to do with fresh conflict in the country. A survey conducted by Public Policy Polling found that 74 percent of the public is opposed to deploying combat troops back into Iraq. Across all political lines, large majorities of Americans do not want to see the US become embroiled in another war, despite the atrocities that the radical Sunni group Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) is committing as it rampages across Iraq, taking control of major cities and strategic areas. Republicans, Democrats and independents all strongly rejected the idea of US troops engaging in conflict, with only 16 percent saying that they support such military action. Even among Republicans, only 25 percent say they support the return of troops to Iraq. Most of those surveyed agreed that the US should provide intelligence to the Iraqi government and explore a diplomatic initiative to deescalate the crisis. Perhaps most tellingly, over two thirds of those surveyed say that they believe the current violence was directly facilitated by the 2003 invasion of the country under President George W. Bush. A further twenty percent believe that the current situation has arisen as a direct result of the withdrawal of US troops that began in 2011. Republicans in Congress are charging that the Obama administration is to blame for the current uprising, arguing that a deal with the Iraqi government should have been made to allow troops to remain in the country beyond 2011.
What has not been touched upon by the mainstream media is the fact that the ISIS is a western intelligence creation, which has been controlled, trained, armed and funded along the Turkish-Syrian border for at least three years by the CIA and it’s regional allies. The Iraqi army is engaged in heavy fighting with militants in an effort to protect the capital. The latest reports detail how fighting has reached as close as 55 kilometers (34 miles) north of Baghdad, with several cities already having fallen under the control of the Insurgency.

Sen. Feinstein Calls For Renewed War In Iraq by INFOWARS | JUNE 17, 2014 Ignores poll stating American people oppose military action California Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein is calling for the U.S. military to attack ISIS in Iraq. She has also said the besieged country’s current leader, Nouri al-Maliki, needs to step down. "I think most important is that we take direct action now against ISIS, marching down to Baghdad, and prevent them from getting into Baghdad," said Feinstein, who is the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Feinstein believes a “reconciliation” government needs to replace al-Maliki, who was approved by the Iraqi government for a second term as president in December, 2010. "I think it’s most important that the Maliki government be replaced, and that includes Mr. Maliki with a reconciliation government," she said. "Based on all I’ve heard, read and know, Mr. Maliki is not able to bring about reconciliation in that country.” The Saudis, who supported ISIS and other jihadist groups in Syria and Iraq, also believe al-Maliki should be replaced. The Saudis, who are Sunni Muslims, have refused to meet with the president of Iraq, who is a Shia Muslim. Arizona Senator John McCain also demanded on Tuesday al-Maliki step down. McCain said Obama needs to send emissaries to Baghdad to "work with Maliki and tell him he’s got to step down and have a coalition government." McCain and other members of Congress are calling for air strikes. "My concern is whether we’re going to do anything besides send a few extra Marines, which won’t do anything," he said. "So far we’ve done nothing of any significance to change the momentum of these people who are taking over large portions of Iraq.” Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins said ISIS would not be a problem in Iraq if NATO was there. Collins, however, expressed skepticism about air strikes. "The question is whether air strikes would work," she said. Sen.
