Seymore Hersh: US funded ISIS and US military undermining Obama

a reply to: elementalgrove

Perhaps you could attempt to address the material covered in the OP or simply move along.

Is Mr Hersh not part of the material in the OP...you know I would like to know about the person used as a source, and then I will decide if I want to discuss what they are talking about.

If I find the source is questionable I will post that information as that is how one does what is known as doing my research.

Seems your not discussing the material in the OP...have you just moved on?

It comes as no surprise that anything that is critical of the west, will result in your immediate dismissal as BS.

I can only call them as I see them.

You know you should really pay attention to what I post as you would have seen I am too critical of things the west does to a point, but they aren't the cause of everything bad in the world throughout history.

Seymour Hersh's credentials speaks for themselves, regardless of your bias!

Obama has a Nobel Peace Prize...having prestige for something doesn't mean you can't be full of BS.

Seymour Hersh has often used anonymous sources, a well established method in investigative reporting.

The sources want to remain anonymous otherwise reporters won't get information.


The top investigative reporters all use anonymous sources

For Hersh it has paid off well with many otherwise horrendous deeds by the US government going unrevealed

Hersh I would say has earned our trust

So, I read this article.

Please point me to the part where Hersh says the U.S. funded ISIS as indicated in the thread title.
