The Obama/Bush Military Narrative: Syria--bypass voters to get weapons to extremists; Gitmo--we can't bypass Congress to release innocents; Afghanistan--send more weapons to fight extremists; Iraq--extremists mysteriously have captured US weapons.

Most of these terrorists got their weapons and ammo from the US government.

All these pictures coming out of Iraq with ZOMGISIS/L extremists using convoys of new Toyotas and tons of US military equipment... makes me think this new story is covering up the fact that we've been supplying extremists in Iraq/Iran for (at least) decades.

Since the 70's at least, maybe even longer.

What are you talking about by US military equipment. The HMMWV that had the ISIS flag on them. If so those were given to the Iraqi military and were taken recently with ISIS' continued advance into Iraq.

given to the Iraqi military and were taken recently

(Also the blackhawks and the cash.) Yeah, I don't believe the "official narrative" on that. You have to admit that it sounds like total bullshit.

Where did you see ISIS had Blackhawks. Even if they did they're useless because I doubt they have the training. As for the cash I doubt they had a lot of resistance from the banks.

I saw claims that there were Blackhawks at that airport they captured.

Looks like you may be correct on the helicopters. I saw a Blackhawk and a Bell with rocket pods. Still I don't know how likely it is they have the ability fly them. First they have to have trained pilots. Then comes fuel which I would assume they would have at the airbase but it's not like fueling up a car. People have to be trained in that as well. Plus they'll have to be able to get more. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they took the rocket pods off and used them some where else.

This post lacks coherency.

I'm sorry you don't like you're own post. But if you're referring to the OP title, maybe we need some propaganda outlet to "clarify" the issues for us?

True, good catch.
