Understanding that these corporations and the think-tanks they fund are the true architects of Western foreign policy is the first step in ending these heinous crimes being committed in our name and ultimately at our expense.
Hillary Clinton's brazen lies, unmitigated deception, and her crass insolence is irrefutable evidence that she and the government she works within have abdicated all of their legitimacy. Their open contempt for America's Constitution

All US policy on the crisis in Syria is driven with Israeli security in mind.
Israel does not want to see the Assad regime fall from power.
If that happens border security will likely change dramatically, especially with a Muslim Brotherhood regime taking over in a "liberated" Syria.
Any western involvement in Syria will require a ground invasion, occupation with "security forces" regime change including the installation of a controllable puppet regime.
It would be easier to just look the other way and let the Assad regime fight to retain control, for now.

I say that US get out their troops from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, EAU and basicaly from all over middle east and central asia former soviet republics.
Guess what will happend next day : Russia and China move in instead and secure 90% of the gas and oil existent on this planet.
Day 3 : gasoline prices in US and EU will triple overnight.Reason : because US looking like a whimp and retreated from all those areas.
They sell us oil BECAUSE we have US/NATO troops and bases there.Not because we have money.
West will look weak, Russia and China will control those regions, and they will decide who buys.Talk about beating the west ? Simple, control the oil.Now, i am quite happy US is doing it.
