Predictable but a fair point, no one is whiter than white, especially the US and some of the hypocrisy that gets thrown around by them can be a bit sickening at times. Do as I say, not as I do.

Not sure if been linked to, but this is a good video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H83pzZ3pjQk

Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander General and retired U.S. General Wesley Clark said:
neither Turkey nor Saudi Arabia want an Iran-Iraq-Syria-Lebanon ‘bridge’ that isolates Turkey, and cuts Saudi Arabia off.

Surely it's pretty obvious who's spending millions of dollars buying ISIS oil isn't it?

Or maybe they're distributing it with dodgy satnavs down the Dog and Duck

Seriously though who's buying it?
Wish someone would divvy the info on this. I cannot believe that they have no idea on funding and where and who. Or is it a bit embarrassing?

Unless of course it is in hand and we will find out about some stunning out manoeuvring in years to come.

They know, but the UK media don't want you to know.

I thought everyone knows it's turkey, but to avoid nato related awkwardness we're just bombing the trucks and not mentioning anything to turkey?

I've been watching Russia Today TV for the last week on and off. The quantity of anti turkey propoganda is enormous. This is only going one way and it won't be pleasant.

Mostly Israel judging by where the ships leaving Turkey end up.

Truth is truth. It doesn't go away just because you want it to.

Many countries buy and sell arms\fuel\resources in many places and to people that most would deem to be highly questionable. The US alone have probably armed more terrorists then any other nation in the world due to the amount of times they switch sides, double deal etc, money has no concept of evil, regimes, borders or sides I'm afraid.

It goes on all the time, the governments all know it goes on and we only get an inkling. That's why you hardly ever see people rocking the boat or pointing the finger when someone gets caught. As I said before, people in glass houses can't afford to throw stones.
