SOTT Exclusive: Send in the troops? Only if ISIS gets hold of a nuclear weapon

What would it take for the U.S. government and its caliphate of psychopaths to deploy ground troops to "fight" ISIS? Recent statements by Obama give us a clue:

President Obama has been unwavering and definitive in declaring he will not deploy U.S. ground troops into combat to fight ISIS militants. Period.


But for the first time since the start of then anti-ISIS offensive dubbed Operation Inherent Resolve, the president volunteered a scenario which he said would change his mind.


"If we discovered that [ISIS] had gotten possession of a nuclear weapon, and we had to run an operation to get it out of their hands, then, yes," the president told reporters at a news conference in Brisbane, Australia, on Sunday. "I would order it."



It seems, however, that Obama doesn't need the threat of a jihadi with a nuke to justify sending more troops to Iraq and Syria, because he recently authorized the deployment of an additional 1,500 troops to Iraq. U.S. Navy Rear Admiral John Kirby recently said:

the troops would be serving in non-combat roles by joining the existing advise-and-assist mission and by initiating a comprehensive training effort for Iraqi-Kurdish forces.



We know that ISIS is largely a creation of the U.S., and that the U.S. government has been helping ISIS, both directly and indirectly, by pretending to arm the 'moderate rebels' who have an unfortunate tendency to hand their weapons over to ISIS when the moderate rebels are routed by US airstrikes. So the real reason for these "advise-and-assist missions" seems to be to ensure that ISIS remains well-equipped with the latest weaponry and that they continue on the course set for them by Washington.

U.S. keeps funding terrorists: ISIS just captured weapons and bases from the mythical 'moderate rebels'


We've repeatedly noted that giving arms to the "moderate" Syrian rebels is idiotic ... as they'll just end up in the hands of the Islamic State.


Even the CIA told Obama that this strategy wouldn't work.


So we're shocked - shocked! - that one of the biggest "moderate" rebel groups backed and armed by the U.S. has just been wiped out ... and all of their arms and bases taken by ISIS.



The U.S. has also been airdropping weapons to ISIS, "by mistake", of course..

US Helping ISIS? One Accidental Airdrop vs Billions in Covert Aid

The Washington Post would report that the United States military accidentally dropped by air at least one pallet of weapons and supplies that ended up in the hands of the so-called "Islamic State" or ISIS.


While the US claims it has "accidentally" allowed weapons to fall into the hands of ISIS terrorists, in reality, the US has been arming, funding, and aiding ISIS and its terrorist affiliates either directly or through Saudi, Qatari, Jordanian, or Turkish proxies since at least 2011.



Judging by the actions of the U.S. government so far, if ISIS somehow does manage to get their hands on a nuclear weapon, we can be fairly certain that it will arrive ''. After all, if an honest Imperial power is going to achieve its plans for the Middle East they have to be prepared to ramp up the phony 'terror threat' to the absolute max.
