Follow the money. Instead of demanding more government control over our citizens of this, that or the other thing, or to accept fear as a way of life; its time to stop the source of the terrorist funding. If any group is funded with $3M a day, they are going to have a profound effect.
This weekend, the international news is full of evidence.
Here are excerpts of the story by a UK reporter.
Part of Story (emphasis mine):
The oil smuggling routes run by the Islamic State terror network are centered, according to surveillance images released this week.
Air reconnaissance photos show thousands of trucks running stolen oil from Syrian state-owned fields in the east of the country converging on the Turkish city of Batman, near the Syrian border.
The oil smuggling operation has been going for at least two years since the so-called Islamic State (IS) terror group took over the oilfields in eastern Syria near the city of Deir Ezzor. The illicit trade is reckoned to have been earning the jihadists up to $3 million a day.
Did the US Know? This week, General Joseph Dunford, the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, told a Congressional committee that it was only in the last two months that the Pentagon got serious with airstrikes on IS oil routes. He admitted that for more than a year, the Pentagon hadn’t bothered because it wasn’t communicating sufficiently with the State Department. Dunford and the US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter, who was also giving evidence to the same committee, both claimed that the decision not to strike oil trucks run by terrorists was to taken in order to “avoid civilian casualties.”
US and British military intelligence are implicated in this terror transmission, according to American journalist Seymour Hersh.
The weapons supply from Turkey to terror groups in Syria, with the collusion of Turkish state intelligence, is coming to light with the arrest last week of Turkish journalists who have dared to uncover the state-sponsored oil-for-weapons racket.
End story
The Turkey Journalist were put in prison for exposing the story.
