    After taking out Osama Bin Laden, it seemed Barry was poised to end Paki bull of aiding, abetting and enabling if not flat out supporting terrorists.

    But years go by and it has seemed business as usual for Paki non resistance to Taliban etc. Going all the way back to Bush Cheney Halliburton Inc and reports of Bin Laden strolling into Paki while they ordered no shoot.

    Well, Barry orders leader of the Afghan Taliban Mullah Akhtar Muhammad Mansour to be wasted as Monsour traveled from Paki to Iran for medical treatment. Significance? His easy travel had to have Paki gov't cooperation.

    U.S. Strike on Taliban Leader Is Seen as a Message to Pakistan

    So does this mean Barry is going to clamp down on Pakis bullshyte, or is this just an election year take out like some think the timing of Bin Laden was?

    Pakistan's army has done more in the last 18 months against the Taliban than the US has done since 2001.

    He's done very little against the spread of terrorism in the Middle East.

    No. But his pushing the Arab Spring helped spread throughout the region. Toppling secular dictators wasn't exactly the smartest thing for a region not ready for the aftermath.

    Arab Spring was a direct result of the Repug destruction of stability in Iraq and the Middle East. It was the Tunisian street vendor who immolated himself that touched off the Tunisian revolt which spread.

    US actually stood by while the Saudis brutally crushed the Arab Spring in Bahrain.

    Obama supported Mubarak getting overthrown in Egypt as well as Libya's revolution and demanded Asad step down as well while giving tons of money/weapons to Syrian "rebels" which ended up in the hands of ISIS which has roots in those 3 countries as well as Afghanistan where Barry stated that was the right war yet hasn't accomplished anything since 2008.

    Egypt, Syria, Libya weren't "Arab Spring" uprisings. They were US Imperial "regime changing" strategy going back to the PNAC neocons in the 1990s.

    In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood got elected, replacing USA's puppet, so USA had to overturn that democracy and install a new puppet.

    Yes, Obama was in power, but the strategy was 20+ years old. Tehran is also in the neocons' regime-changing gun sights.

    I'll give Barry credit for the Iranian deal. Allowing the Ayatollahs all that access to extra cash will help them fight ISIS.

    At least he's not as re ed as most neocons/Hillary who are all about regime change, nation building, fighting everyone at once. Hopefully Trump will avoid such ideology as well.

    Quit making excuses. You know better. He was probably pressured by Shillary since she's one of the most active politicians in regime change/nation-building.

    Hillary is neocon. No excuses, but the DeepState/MIC/neocon govt is unstoppable by ANY President. It's fundamental to the decline of America.
