The war on ISIS will cost much more than claimed.
"Direct costs of the president's plan will likely be on the order of $22 billion per year, but that is only the start. "It'll skyrocket when he sends in the troops.\
"The combined cost of abandoning planned cutbacks at the Defense Department, new spending to combat the Islamic State, and extra foreign military assistance means that America will wind up spending up to $100 billion more on military activities than we had expected this year alone."
Airstrikes target more oil facilities in Syria, ostensibly to cut off funds to ISIS, but I doubt it.
The US covered up WMD in Iraq because they were supplied by the US.
"Iraq had no nuclear weapons, as the US falsely claimed."That's not true. The US claimed Iraq had a nuclear weapons program, and that was true.
"Few Americans know anything about their nation’s support for the demonized Saddam Hussein or the secret biological weapons story. Or that the deadliest biowarfare weapon used in the region was the destruction by the US airpower of Iraq’s water and sewage systems, a crime that led to the deaths, according to UN officials, of over 500,000 Iraqis, mostly children, from contaminated water. Iraq is still poisoned by depleted uranium munitions fired by US forces."I thought this was pretty well known by now.
