Jihadi John is the target of US drone strike?

Funny how a "average Joe" (no disrespect) like yourself knows how to deal with a legitimate problem but the United states military chases the mosquitoes. It's almost like they don't really want to fix the problem. Probably because ISIS is their own creation. https://public.isishq.com/public/about/default.aspx

 

Bad taste? Yes the United States government is such a classy bunch. "Tuskegee experiments"...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_syphilis_experiment "poisoning alcohol during the prohibition" ...http://time.com/3665643/deadly-drinking/" MK ULTRA"....https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_MKUltra" project mockingbird" ....https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird"Iran contra scandal"....

 

Here is what happened to most of the witnesses that supposedly killed Osama bin Laden....http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/oct/20/families-suspect-seal-team-6-crash-was-inside-job-/?page=all

Why do you suppose family members of seal team six would accuse the government in the death of their children? A body is very (*)(*)(*)(*)ing important when you send 100's of thousands of our kids off to fight a war for a bad man. The US government came up with a plan to stage terror attacks to get people to send their children to die for the interests of corporation's. There was no bad guys so they needed to create some..https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods

Blind trust in people like that will get your children killed for the profits of people like British Petroleum, Du Pont, EXXON, G.E., Boeing, ISIS, CACI, and the rest of the military industrial complex. That's why proof is needed to hell with bad taste. It's in bad taste to send thousand's of people to there death on a lie. The people deserve concrete proof.

 

I am sure UBL is dead, if not he would have surfaced again to tout the U.S. for missing him. JJ, it seems like overkill using million dollar equipment when a one dollar bullet could have done the job. JJ was just a propaganda guy. Not worth all the effort in my opinion. The effort should be to drive ISIS out of Iraq and destroy them in Syria.

I also think you are giving our inept government way too much credit.

 

I'm sure he is dead too! I'm almost positive he died long before seal team six supposedly killed him. That's the point! The United States government blamed him for 9/11 but he was on a short leash in 97 when he was receiving dialysis treatment. My good friends mother lasted 4 years after she started receiving the treatment. She was even given a transplant all for nothing because her body rejected it. You may trust the government to no end but I am not that naive. Survival rates from 1980-2001 for people receiving dialysis was not very good. It should be noted that my friends mother was very wealthy, she received top notch treatment at the university of Wisconsin hospital up until she died from her kidney disease. She may not have been bin Laden wealthy but medicine has it's limitations in this case money will only get you the organ and top notch treatments but ultimately it's up to fate.

The government is inept, but the cia is not. I do know there is a difference between the two, but the CIA operates because the government allows it. So ultimately it's the government's fault for everything the CIA has done.

 

If you think your government is inept what about ours - ours has been cutting back the numbers of police and our military for a year or more at the very time we're gonna need them most. How bloody 'inept' is that!!

 

I would not go that far, but I have to agree it is beyond weird that no one say the truth.
But it always takes an 'average Joe' to shout 'the king is naked' while all the smart people who feed of that king are either 'yes man' or blinded by wrong conceptions to see the simple truth.
Also, this goes against everything the west 'liberals' who run western society believe in.
For them 'freedom of speech' means 'I can call for murder of anybody' and if I call my hate group a religion, it is even worse.
Unfortunately this breeds a special type of bullies and fascists that uses 'religion' and 'freedom of speech' as their cover.
We need to stop them, just like we would stop any 'religion' who practice actual human sacrifices.

 

Why not?

 

If you believe the Oxford educated people that run the commonwealth are inept, then they have pulled the wool over your eyes. Much like Goerge W.Bush did to America. In his race for Texas governor he sounds like an educated man, after 9/11 he turned into a hick, coming off as an uneducated bafoon. Thanks to the vast ignorance of the American people nobody called him on it.

 

Because I don't think this is the reason.
The reason is political. No politician will burn his head in order to save your kids.
All they want to do is to be in control.
They care not if the world burns due to their inability to take risks and do the right thing.

 

And now you've got another loser! To have one loser, Mr Private Citizen, may be regarded as a misfortune; to have two looks like carelessness. (apols to Oscar Wilde? )

 

In a simple world I might agree. But when talking about complex human beings you shouldn't restrict your thinking to a small box. We like to pretend that there is really nothing special about ourselves, we are simple people minding our own business and so is everyone else. We like to use false personas (ego) to hide our true self. Your true self is not a simple being. The real self has all kinds of ideas and compassion for living things. That person is afraid to reveal themselves for fear of being ridiculed or laughed at. We are being controlled by the oldest method of brainwashing peer pressure. IMO that is why you would not go that far. Fear of ridicule by those that dominate public discussion.

 

We have had nothing but losers. Any truly good people have had bullets put through their brains or just don't want to get involved with the process because they don't want a bullet to end their lives prematurely.

 

Few people actually trust our government. Gallup had a poll a couple of weeks ago where 76% of all Americans think their government is corrupt. Pew Research did one on trust and 75% do not trust their government. But with Obama as president 58% of Democrats trusted their government, when Bush was president 55% of Republicans trusted their government. So who is in the white house directly affects how some people view their trust in government.

I know the government lies to the people all the time or never gives them the whole truth and facts. Government spins things to suit their purpose and not the reality of the situation or events. One should expect that. Our government has gotten so big that no one can control it.

 

Yeah. The problem with ours is it has grown so big that it has lost any sense of efficiency. That agencies, departments, programs seem to run themselves with little or no oversight. there are portions or agencies run amok and when an president tries to rein in that agency, the permanent non elected head just tones it down some and waits for the president to leave office. He was there before this president was elected and he will be after he leaves office. It is all business as usual.
