The Military Industrial Complex Makes $10 MILLION Per Day ‘Fighting ISIS’
21st Century Wire says…
The cash just keeps on flowing into the pockets of those who created the problem in the first place. It’s almost like they planned it all out this way.
Watch a video of this report here:
The Pentagon is blowing, on average, $9.9 million per day in its fight against ISIS, or around $6,785 per minute. So, almost $4 billion since the operations began a year ago.
The Pentagon claims it has destroyed over 10,000 strategic targets, meaning it costs around $400,000 per successful hit.
Despite this, Syria is still infested with the plague of ISIS and strategic cities in Iraq such as Ramadi and Mosul remain under terrorist control.

The central issue behind all of this, is that it is entirely possible to trace the creation of ISIS back to the actions of the Military Industrial Complex in the first place.

American Generals now admit that Washington has been supporting jihadists in a proxy war against Syria’s Assad, a proxy war that sufficiently destabilised the country to allow for the growth of ISIS. Many even go as far to say that the U.S. is actually supporting ISIS forces.
It would not be the first time such a vicious circle has been established, just look at how Western support for the Mujahideen led to the rise of al Qaeda.
