12:08 am
be some retaliation for these threats it's becoming increasingly apparent that his promise to make cameras pay for the three teenagers found dead on monday so there is a huge amount of grief at the discovery the grim discovery of the three bodies of those israeli teenagers late yesterday israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the three teenagers were murdered in cold blood by what he described as animals. well and is that of condolence president obama described the killings of the jewish boys as a senseless act of terror against innocent youth meanwhile the killing of an eighteen year old palestinian by israeli troops during a night raid in the west bank has gone largely unnoticed political activist mr. too says the international media has repeatedly hushed israel's deadly record is very important for the world media to remember to mention not only the three israelis killed but also the eleven palestinian killed. three children who

occupation when they withdrew troops from iraq i'm after the so-called surge that was a. little bit what of those groups have been defeated or at least neutralized that probably never really happened and isis has been an hour to iraq not just because of what in syria but also by the incompetence sectarianism and corruption of the i'm a leader government in iraq so all these different forces are closer to asia which is very probable that some iraq could fragment into three stages because i can't see the moment or the time being any kind of sectarian movement look at overcome the divisions that are ripping iraq to shreds. well president barack obama has promised additional troops to be deployed in the region to ease the desperate battle with the militants and it comes shortly after the white house approved the hof a billion dollar windfall for rebels in syria the move was a to counter the radical islamist group which is also fighting a sad and terrorizing cities in neighboring iraq but the plan was met with

12:15 am
exceptional things and we do exceptional for. we have to live up to that standard but time and time again washington's eagerness to involve itself in foreign conflicts has fueled secretary in divisions creating an exceptionally dangerous circumstance the us policy unfortunately. has destroyed and made a mockery of the you know what they have done in libya what they have done and continue to do it was done in iraq. it is all something that. doesn't jive with claiming any kind of conflict exceptionalism and yet in each case washington has washed its hands of any responsibility the united states of america is not responsible for what happened in libya nor is it responsible for what is happening in iraq today in the absence of u.s.
