Mosul – The city General Petraeus cleaned up and used as the model  for how to deal with counter insurgency – Has fallen.

“Mosul now is like hell. It’s up in flames,” said Amina Ibrahim, who like many others was heading for northern Iraq’s more stable Kurdish-controlled zone. “I lost my husband in a bomb blast last year, I don’t want my kids to follow him.”

IRAQ – Militants storm northern city of Mosul, freeing thousands of prisoners, as Iraqi prime minister declares state of emergency and offers to arm citizens who volunteer to fight against militants Al-Qaeda seized control of Iraq’s third biggest city on Tuesday, freeing thousands of imprisoned fellow fighters in a series of jailbreaks and sparking a mass exodus of refugees.

The assault on the city of Mosul, 225 miles north west of Baghdad, saw the Iraqi army retreat to the outskirts after a sustained assault by men armed with heavy machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades. As well as seizing the main governorate building – forcing the city’s governor to flee – the gunmen were also reported to have gained control of three different jails, numerous police stations and an airport, where several military planes and helicopters were based.

Against the backdrop of a new media report of SEVERE INTIMIDATION from the White House toward Bergdahl’s squad, and even Pentagon officials, we think it is important to remind you what extents this White House will go to when they are at risk of exposure.  

There is a real danger when your discussions become considered risks.  However, sunlight is not only the best disinfectant, it’s also the best protection.

Go BIG, go LOUD and perhaps you can stay safe…..

Perhaps this one of the most important discussion threads ever regarding Legacy Media manipulation.

We sincerely hope you will take the time to digest the content, think about the ramifications to what is here, and then share the information with others.

What you are about to read is not a subjective matter of opinion, the CNN stories are documented, attributed and cited. They are factual. Everything is verifiable within the embedded links and citations.

We have previously shared information which came to light as part of a CNN reporter, Amber Lyon, leaving the media conglomerate.

However, before getting to the CNN Amber Lyon expose’ (which is incredible and troubling) let’s first back up a moment and take you back to a previous video we shared a few years ago surrounding events in Libya, Egypt and the attack on the U.S. Benghazi compound of 9/11/2012. (more…)

The chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee raised questions Sunday about the Obama administration argument that Congress wasn’t informed about the prisoner swap for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl because he might have been killed if the deal was made public.

The California Democrat told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that she and the committee’s top Republican, Georgia Sen. Saxby Chambliss, had been briefed previously about the operation and kept that information confidential.

“We understand the security of that, we have never violated that,” said Feinstein, who has raised doubts about the so-called “credible threat” on Bergdahl’s life several times since Congress was briefed about his June 5 release in exchange for five Taliban detainees at the U.S. prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

“I have heard of none,” she continued.  (link)

This original information appeared in 2010 as a result of the discoveries within the Wikileaks 400,000 page document dump. I’m reposting it again today because someone must keep history accurate. The information below is totally divergent from what the media writing of history proclaims. It is good to know truth, the historical truth, and not the spin placed upon us by the media machine(s). And if you ever find yourself in one of those conversations with a prog who claims “George Bush lied”, well, you can put them straight. Read on……

The WikiLeaks de facto declassification of privileged material makes it case closed: Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction — and intended to restart his program once the heat was off.

President George W. Bush, in the 2003 State of the Union address, uttered the infamous “16 words”: “The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.”

Former Ambassador Joe Wilson sprang into action and, in an op-ed piece, in effect wrote, “No, the Cheney administration sent me to investigate the allegation — and I found it without merit.” (more…)

Actually, this lap of luxury approach might just work. If they get them used to exclusive indulgences the Taliban 5 might just get so used to it they’ll never be able to think about living in the rough rock tribal regions of Pakistan/Afghanistan ever again.

The White House and State Department can claim they “don’t know” the details, but the military did; and thanks to Big Mama Tea, and WikiLeaks, you can read the military intelligence reports for yourself and see exactly what was going on in the area around his unit.

The Taliban captured him a day after he walked off base.  Ironically while he was taking a sh!t, and they didn’t let him wipe himself.  Initially the Taliban requested a 15:1 swap and money.   Afghan tribal leaders acted as liaisons in the initial days of Bergdahl’s capture.

It’s really eye opening to read the actual Military Intelligence surrounding the initial search for him.   Everything his squad has said publically over the past week is confirmed in these original 8 pages of military reports.

HAILEY, Idaho — In 2011, during his long five-year vigil, waiting helplessly at home while his son was held by Taliban extremists half a world away, Bob Bergdahl made a personal video for the Pakistani government that he hoped would be delivered to his boy, Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

“These are my thoughts. I can remain silent no longer,” the father began. He stood in a black shirt, his bushy blond beard worn long, the kind sported by most militant men in the war-racked region.

In the three-minute video, he mentioned several high-ranking Pakistani generals by name, thanking them for their sacrifices. Then he went on to thank the Taliban forces that were holding his son.

“Strangely to some,” he said, “we must also thank those who have cared for our son for almost two years. We know our son is a prisoner, but at the same time a guest in your home.”

It is important to understand the danger of how Qatar has been playing the U.S., to understand how the Gitmo-5 will align and the inherent danger the media will not follow.

How Our Stinger Missiles Wound Up In Afghanistan Being Used Against Our Own Troops:

On February 15th 2011 a civil war erupted inside Libya.   Egyptian Islamists previously  freed from jail by the Muslim Brotherhood flooded into Eastern Libya and joined with their ideological counterparts.  al-Qaeda operatives hell bent on using the cover of the Arab Spring to finally rid themselves of their nemesis, Muammar Gaddafi.

President Obama chose to ignore an outbreak of violence in Libya for 19 days.  Perhaps Obama was tentative from the criticism he and Hillary received over the mixed messaging in Egypt.  Regardless, eventually Obama was begged to engage himself by leaders from France, The United Kingdom, and Italy.

The White House advisors (Emanuel, McDonough, Donolin, Jarrett, Axelrod, Plouffe) were more cautious this time.  Initially Obama ignored the EU requests and later chose to dispatch the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, to Europe to address their concerns.

For the following 11 days American citizens, including State Dept. embassy officials, were trying to evacuate the country as vast swathes of the country erupted in bloodshed and violence, they became trapped in Tripoli.   A bloody national revolution was underway.

The United Nations Security Council held urgent immediate emergency meetings to try to determine what to do.    However, the United States Ambassador to those meetings, Susan Rice, was not present.    She was attending a global warming summit in Africa. (more…)

Even their names are manipulated to coordinate with the PR messaging.   Robert and Janice becomes “Bob and Jani”.   See how that works.

If Bob and Jani get a wrong order in a restaurant; if their French fries are cold; if the coffee too hot; if their mail is an hour late; if a neighbor dog poops in their yard…… all of it will be because this poor wounded family is under assault from the full weight of the horrible United States Of UnAmerica…   Watch, it’s how it works…. 

COMPARE AND CONTRAST – It’s the opposite of being Zimmerman’d.   When Robert and Glady’s Zimmerman were chased from their home by Spike Lee, Rosanne Barr and the left-wing lynch mob; and while they were being threatened -publically threatened at that- by the Black Panthers, nobody in the media blinked an eye….

….Heck, they cheered on the mob.  

WASHINGTON DC – Threats against the family of former Taliban prisoner Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl are being investigated by federal, state and local authorities.

William Facer, a spokesman for the FBI’s Salt Lake City division, said Saturday in a statement: “The FBI continues to monitor the situation in Hailey, Idaho. We are working jointly with our state and local partners and taking each threat seriously.”

The soldier’s parents, Bob and Jani Bergdahl, live in Hailey, Idaho.

Facer did not detail the nature of the threat. (more…)
