This weeks blog is a critique that was done on an Article titled “Should The US put ground Troops to fight ISIS. I agree that ISIS is a definite threat to the US and other countries around the world. All of your points are true. I was in the military for a while so I can explain this from the inside. All Arab nations are 100% right about the US. We invaded their countries for no reason at all. We have set up military bases that have been there since the 1^st Gulf War. Why? The answer is not so simple. First, the US Government is corrupt. The corruption goes from the bottom all the way to the top. Let me explain. First, how did the current President in Afghanistan get back into power? Take a guess! Yes, The US government led by Special Ops teams changed the political landscape and took key people out and put key people in.  

If you follow the money trail, you have to start back in 2002. On April 28, 2013, The New York Times broke a case about how the CIA funneled money through the region causing key things to happen. We spent about $250,000,000 dollars on a plan that was supposed to help us do whatever we wanted in the region. However, that 99% of that money was somehow lost between the Afghan government and the Taliban. So how do you lose $250 million dollars? The entire world knew there were not any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq but we went anyway.

You are right in how sending troops back overseas is a mistake. From a historical or biblical standpoint, that part of the world has never seen peace and will never know peace until the end. We fund every country in the Arabian world with weapons, money, and military training. Those same countries use those same tactics against us all over the world. The reason they do that is because they are trained in are max capabilities and are max limitations.

You are right in the fact that ISIS does not represent a religion. Islam as a religion is a religion based on peace and tolerance. However people have warped that into Radical Islam which means anything goes. ISIS does slowly brainwash all of its followers and it typically recruits anyone who is willing to die for ISIS.

The story of Benghazi, Syria, How we caught Saddam Hussein, etc; are all exceptional books.  We can not pick who to fight with because we have are hands in everyone’s pocket. Democrats and Republicans alike both know in detail on what goes on overseas but they choose to overlook it until the media gets involved.

You are right as far as the presidential election goes as well. It does not matter who wins as President or who loses. It does not matter if Congress changes from red to blue. The only thing that is constant is that nothing will change overseas at all. We need to do just as they say and pull all of our people out as soon as possible. You wrote a great blog.
