French president Francois Hollande has arrived in the Iraqi capital Baghdad to meet French troops helping government forces battle Islamic State. And it came just days after the resumption of a large-scale offensive on Mosul, which remains a key ISIS stronghold. However, experts fear the military operation could lead to a problem even bigger than Islamic State itself.
Why do we have to look to Russian and other foreign news sources to find reporting and discussions like this?
Americans seem ignorant (meaning no knowledge, not stupid) of most of the implications of events and situations in the larger world, wonder why?
People are as easily destroyed by a lack of knowledge as by any weapon forged by man.

Because MOST AMERICANS dont give a rats azz about ANY country other than their own and have been taught and swallowed 1000% the belief that they are the “exceptional nation”! If Americans really wanted to know what the truth is about what their government does in their name to the rest of the world, the info is out there, and maybe, just maybe, there would have been even bigger protests against their governments destruction and murder of other countries than took place before the invasion of Iraq! But no, most Americans are self-satisfied as they take the word of their “leaders” and MSM while they play video games and watch soap operas!
If the rains are due to arrive, this will put additional pressure on the dam. Something must be done, Now.
Suggest Al Gore be summoned – surely the GloBull Warming God can perform some of his scientific miracles to stop the rain – like a special Dance, around a fire pit. Or, he can pray to the Central Banks, for a few Shekels of course.
I wonder who designed and built the damn. Who was responsible for maintenance. Looks like an earthen damn. I am going to guess it was built over 50 years ago with the help of Europeans, before they became a bunch of pussies. I will have to look it up.
