This is what happens when you let global elite bankers dictate American foreign policy

Situation: Qaddafi not having a centralized bank

Result: Region gets destabilized, rebels get funded and armed by the United States because Qaddafi is a tyrant the western world suddenly is threatened by and needs to depose. He may have been a tyrant but he kept the region in check.

Situation: Hussein selling Iraqi oil in exchange for gold, moving away from the global standard of selling oil in exchange for US Dollars

Result: Suddenly Hussein has WMDs and is a threat to the world, we move in to overthrow him and set up a "democracy", coalition forces pull out to early and the region is horribly destabilized and multiple rebel forces coalesce into a larger movement


ULTIMATE result: destable regions of Iraq and Syria lead to rebel forces/terrorists/insurgents being merged into a terrorist organization/caliphate with actual geographic control, government, administration, and currency. Aptly named the Islamic State of IRAQ and SYRIA.

Funny how that works.
