One big reason for the Obama/Clinton regime's delicate handling of the Benghazi terrorist attack that killed 4 Americans was because they simply could not have it come out how Benghazi was being utilized to arm, equip & train ISIS for its attacks all over the Middle East.
Think of how many problems it would have created for the war mongering in the Middle East, the escalation of US forces in the region to help 'contain' ISIS as it took over vast swaths of real estate in Iraq and Syria if ISIS was traced back to our own CIA & government.
Think of how it coming out that NATO/Mossad/CIA were all instrumental in the creation of, the guiding of, equipping of, selecting targets for...ISIS would've really CAUSED A PROBLEM FOR THIS GAY MOTHERFUCKER in his helpless shrugging act about how ISIS just couldn't be stopped.
For going on 5 entire years, Obama pulled the stupid helpless shrugging act.

"Nothin's working folks. We just can't stop them. We are struggling to contain them. This will be a generational problem...hey we better put a SHIT-TON more use forces in the region, don't you think?" Image
Uh...yeah...right!

In a region where EVERY FUCKING NATION HAS ITS OWN FULLY FUNCTIONAL AIR FORCE...

[is everybody paying attention?]

...we were led to believe NOBODY could stop these slow-moving ISIS caravans traveling over the roads in cars and trucks.

PEOPLE BOUGHT IT.
Image
Image
A terrorist group with no air cover. Moving in caravans up and down those roads...

With no air cover whatsoever. I wanna emphasize that.

Slowly...oh-so-very-S-L-O-W-L-Y...gallivanting around and committing unspeakable atrocities hither and yon.

Butchered thousands. Image
And for 5 long years, as the ISIS 'threat' grew....

and GREW....

AND G-R-E-W...

and this gay motherfucker continued to insist he was DOING EVERYTHING HE COULD POSSIBLY DO to stop them...

...we sent more troops to Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.

And the military industrial complex rejoiced.

CA-CHING! $$$Image
AND THEN ***THIS FUCKING GUY*** SHOWED UP AND RUINED ***EVERYTHING***!!!!

All their plans!

Their entire agenda for the Middle East.

Their plans to continue to build up and use ISIS as an excuse to expand US military operations there. Image
This was unforeseen.

This was not supposed to happen.

Obama was supposed to make the handoff to HILLARY.

It was SUPPOSED TO BE Hillary.

So she could CONTINUE his stupid and fake-as-fuck HELPLESS SHRUGGING ACT when it came to ISIS. Image
And then do you know what happened next?

Do you remember?

What Trump did to their precious ISIS?

And how long it took him to do it?

When ISIS's slow-moving convoys amazing magical ability to get NOT GET BOMBED BACK TO THE STONE AGE from THE AIR was suddenly...lost?


Image
Image
Image
Image
ISIS had to STOP gallivanting about the region in slow moving convoys.

Suddenly they were PINNED DOWN in their strongholds & every time they stuck their heads up out of their holes they died.

IT TOOK TRUMP 4 MONTHS TO UTTERLY DESTROY ISIS AS A FORCE IN THE REGION.

Why? Image
**WHY** was Trump able to so quickly succeed where Obama and Clinton had failed for more than 5 years when it came to the ISIS 'threat'?

I submit that the reason Trump succeeded so totally and easily in 4 months is because the ISIS threat was never all that real to begin with.
ISIS was a NATO/CIA/Mossad Operation Gladio creation.

Trump knew once he **removed** the 'magical' shield protecting ISIS from being bombed from the air & removed the **barriers** preventing the Gulf Cooperation Council [GCC] from engaging ISIS directly, it wouldn't take long.
Remember how Fake News and the political establishment roundly and derisively mocked Trump and Melania for that 1st presidential trip to Saudi Arabia?

They didn't have the first fucking clue what they were watching unfold.

Trump destroyed the Operation Gladio infrastructure.
Image
Image
Trump got the reception he did in Saudi Arabia because he communicated **with clarity** to the national leaders in the region "Look, I know what's been going on. I know how you've been PREVENTED from acting on ISIS & other threats created by outsiders.

And I'm going to put a stop to it."

AND HE DID.Image
Now, I want you to think about this.

The same people who shaped the world's view of the ISIS threat and West's seeming inability to come to grips with that threat...

[and who were completely exposed by Trump]

are the VERY SAME PEOPLE...

same people, mind you...

who are...
...attempting to shape your view of CURRENT EVENTS going on in

the Ukraine/Russia conflict
the Israel/Gaza conflict
the China/Taiwan conflict

What **narrative framing** are they currently proffering to you these days, assuming you still pay attention to them?
Are these same people who provided cover for and excuses for the failure to destroy ISIS in a timely fashion currently strongly demanding INCREASED US MILITARY FORCES in certain regions of the world?

Why would they be doing that?

Is much of what you're being shown...real?
We've funded one of the most corrupt regimes to ever exist, one with actual Nazis embedded inside its military forces to the tune of over $100 billion in the past 2 years.

Who is it that is now stridently calling for more billions to be sent to that regime?

And threatening that hey, we might have to send American boys and girls over there to die if we're not willing to fork over the cash?Image

Once you start asking the right questions, you get closer to the right answers.

Reposting 'My Open Letter to the Members of the 1984 Corporate News Media' from last year:

youtu.be/ErwS24cBZPc?si…

briancates.substack.com/p/an-open-lett… Image
Dear reporters and journalists of the Corporate News Sphere:

George Orwell’s novel 1984 was not an instruction manual.

It was a cautionary tale, and a damned good one, too.

There’s a reason its constantly cited as one of the most important and influential literary works of all time.

Because it warns the reader by educating them about brainwashing, mind control and fascist propaganda.Image
However, its becoming increasingly apparent that many out-of-control government bureaucrats and some of your corporate bosses seem to think it is an instruction manual.

There is a segment of our government and corporate culture that has recently started to be exposed that genuinely seems to think that a vital part of a healthy and fully functioning democracy involves surreptitious draconian control of what citizens are publicly allowed to say both to their government and to each other.

If you happen to agree that a ruthlessly and secretly enforced censorship code to control what American citizens can say or see or hear is vitally necessary to maintain a healthy republican government, you should probably stop reading here.

The O’Brien’s of the world would certainly not enjoy reading the rest of this column.

However, if you do believe in free speech, and you are not completely mentally enslaved by the corporate machine around you, by all means, please keep reading.

"Hey boys and girls, do you know who ELSE had FISA warrants for their Apple-Google electronic comms filed in federal court as part of a grand jury investigation being led by some as-yet-still-unknown person?"

Surprise!

Yes, really.

I am not making this up, I swear.

THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED.Image
The unseal of the first indictment and then that first arrest is really gonna be something.

Maybe even live on the air. Image

Want to know why Obama looks so thin and haggard-looking with bags under his eyes since the election was held?

Read this.

It's not just FISAGate. Most people have no real idea just how deep the RussiaGate/SpyGate rabbit hole goes.

I do know.

I put in the work. I read all the filings. From most of the cases. I am not a hot take surface skimmer. Farming for engagement on here did not exist when I put in the groundwork on all of this from 2017 through 2020.

Read it to believe it.

briancates.substack.com/p/the-biggest-…

See, Obama is not sleeping at night because he knows what's coming when Trump gets back in there with the AG and the FBI Director he wants.

Obama knows the country is ready for it now.

It wasn't ready for ALL of this to be declassified and exposed BEFORE...

BUT IT IS NOW.

AND THIS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIES THAT GAY MOTHERFUCKER.

Nothing can stop what is coming.Image
Fake News isn't just used to promote and hype fake scandals, false hoaxes and lying narratives in order to control the public perception of current events.

There's another key job Fake News has that was very important to The Machine right up until we destroyed it:

The suppression/denial/covering up for any real scandals that emerged.

The Machine protected it friends from their real crimes/scandals while inventing fake scandals/crimes to go after its enemies.

And trust me on this.

In that column linked up there, this was a massive scandal that, if we had a real mainstream news media in this country, would have sparked a national scandal and had every investigative reporter in the country digging into it.

As it so happened, only a few people like me realized what was happening and covered it at the time.

And history will reflect this.Image
After the American public spent more than five long years being relentlessly assailed with the false narrative that Donald J. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign [and it’s subsequent presidency] was compromised by Russian agents, not only has the truth emerged about the vicious dirty trick operation launched by the Hillary Clinton team, the September 2020 declassification of CIA briefing notes created in August of 2016 raised very real questions about which campaign it actually was that had Russian agents embedded within it.

There is a difference between who skim the surface and people who dig into the legal filings of the numerous cases.

Some of you think we will not see any 'return' of John Durham or his report.

Many still think I was wrong about Sessions and Rosenstein.

I was not and I am not.

So, several questions for the surface skimmers who are going to be completely caught surprise at what the Bondi DOJ / Kash FBI starts doing around February of 2025. Let's see who was paying attention and hasn't forgotten.

1. How do you penetrate an ongoing RICO criminal conspiracy involving treason via a recusal of the Trump loyalist Jeff Sessions? Who do you drop into the middle of the ongoing plot that began back in 2015?

2. Who sells himself as the crooked Johnny "I'll Allow It!" as the conspirators around him continue their conspiracy?

3. Who was leading the leak hunting unit that Sessions and Rosenstein formed that had 24 open cases by 2018?

4. Who was leading the grand jury that was subsequently investigating Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell and 70+ other persons inside/around the US Congress, an investigation that lasted three years?

5. What is the statute of limitations on treason?

6. Just how much of a vindictive son of a bitch is Donald J. Trump? Does he relish revenge?

7. Since you are not really **required** or **compelled** to announce you've appointed a Special Counsel to lead a grand jury to investigate actual treasonous leaking of classified material, how do you know Jack Smith, Robert Hur and ol' Bob Mueller were the ONLY Special Counsels appointed without Senate Confirmation hearings?

8. How do you know Sessions/Rosenstein didn't appoint a Special Counsel who was never publicly declared to BE a Special Counsel? And who's grand jury worked in utter and complete and total silence and secrecy? And we didn't find out about this until that Special Counsel decided not to renew the federal gag order on Apple for a fourth year?

IYKYK

And if you don't know... you will. Just keep watching.Image
Image
Image
Image
I forgot one.

9. Was in the ROOM with Trump and Mueller when ol' Bob was **supposedly** 'interviewing' for the FBI Director job?

And everybody knows at this point that's NOT why ol' Bob was there.

Think CAREFULLY about that one. Image
I fully realize it's going to take about a year from now for most of you to break your programming. You've been programmed by surface skimmers who ignore the filings, don't see the obvious, and are captive to the present news cycle. They don't remember all too well what happened 7 years ago.

I do.

It's OK.

I too am a very patient man.
