You are such an ignorant and näive little lap dog. Here is former DIA Director General Michael Flynn on video admitting that the Obama Administration armed ISIS to overthrow the governments in the Middle East (Egypt, Libya, Syria, etc.).Truth is Clinton and Obama aided and abetted no such thing as the rise of ISIS. They have led the global coalition to kill, capture and drive ISIS fighters out Iraq Syria and Libya and it is succeeding quite well.
Mehdi Hasan: [INTERRUPTING] But hold on, you were helping them in 2012. While these groups are -
Michael Flynn: Yeah, we've allowed this, we've allowed this extremist, you know, these extremist militants to come in and -
Mehdi Hasan: [INTERRUPTING] But why did you allow them to do that, General? You were in post. You were the head of the Defence Intelligence Agency.
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Well, those are – those are – yeah, right, right. Well those are – those are policy – those are policy issues, yeah.
Mehdi Hasan: [TALKING OVER] I took the liberty – I took the liberty of printing out that document. This is the memo I quoted from. Did you see this document in 2012? Would this come across your table, one of your analysts wrote -
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Oh yeah, yeah, I paid very close attention to all those, sure.
Mehdi Hasan: [TALKING OVER] OK, So when you saw this, did you not pick up a phone and say, "What on earth are we doing supporting these Syrian rebels who are -"?
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Sure. That, that kind of information is presented and those become -
Mehdi Hasan: [INTERRUPTING] And what did you do about it?
Michael Flynn: Those become – those become – I argued about it.
Mehdi Hasan: Did you say, "We shouldn't be supporting these groups"?
Michael Flynn: I did. I mean, we argued about these, the different groups that were there and we said, you know, "Who is that is involved here?" and I will tell you that I, I do believe that the, the intelligence was very clear, and now it's a matter of whether or not policy is going to be as clear and as defining and as precise as it needs to be, and I don’t believe it was.
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] – we kicked that can, Mehdi.
Mehdi Hasan: But three – we're not – but three years ago, let's just be clear for the sake of our viewers. In 2012, your agency was saying, quote: "The Salafists, the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Qaeda in Iraq are the major forces driving the insurgence in Syria." In 2012, the US was helping coordinate arms transfers to those same groups. Why did you not stop that, if you're worried about the rise of quote, unquote, "Islamic extremism"?
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Yeah, I, I mean, I hate to say it's not my job but that – my job was to ensure that the accuracy of our intelligence that was being presented was as good as it could be, and I will tell you, it goes before 2012. I mean, when we were, when we were in Iraq and we still had decisions to be made before there was a decision to pull out of Iraq in 2011. I mean, it was very clear what we were, what we were going to face.
Mehdi Hasan: Well, I admire your frankness on this subject.
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Very clear what we were gonna face.
Mehdi Hasan: Let me – let me just to, before we move on, just to clarify once more, you are basically saying that even in government at the time, you knew those groups were around. You saw this analysis -
Michael Flynn: [TALKING OVER] Sure.
Mehdi Hasan: - and you were arguing against it. But who wasn’t listening?
Michael Flynn: I think the administration.
Mehdi Hasan: So the administration turned a blind eye to your analysis -
Michael Flynn: I don’t know if they turned a blind eye. I think it was a decision. I think it was a wilful decision.
Mehdi Hasan: A wilful decision to go – support an insurgency that had Salafist, al-Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood?
Michael Flynn: [INTERRUPTING] Well, a wilful decision to do what they're doing, which, which you have to really – you have to really ask the President, what is it that he actually is doing with the, with the policy that is in place, because it is very, very confusing? I’m sitting here today, Mehdi, and I don’t, I can’t tell you exactly what that is, and I've been at this for a long time.

McCain continued his push for war in both Iraq and Syria, saying the fight requires the “full weight of American air power” as well as “some more boots and support on the ground.” He added, “All this didn’t have to happen. We could have left a force behind in Iraq that would have stabilized Iraq. And we are paying an incredible price for the president’s leading from behind, whether it be in Iraq, in Syria, in Libya, or a number of countries in the Middle East. We are seeing the chickens coming home to roost.”
The senator proceeded to seriously misspeak when he described a 2013 meeting in the White House in which everyone on the administration’s national security team “recommended arming ISIS.” But, he explained, “the president, by himself, turned it down.”
.
President Obama and Mitt Romney on Tuesday offered clashing views over whether to arm insurgents in Syria after a weekend massacre left more than 100 people dead and drew international condemnation.
Romney called for the United States and partner nations to “arm the opposition so they can defend themselves” against the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad, but White House press secretary Jay Carney warned that would lead to more “chaos and carnage” and was “not the right course.”
John McCain was not in the Obama Administration and certainly was not appointed to a National Security position. Michael Flynn was. McCain is a politician (like Obama) and not a very good one at that (like Obama).Your Flynn is not only confused - his memory is failing him:
According to the link below McCain on Fox News... "described a 2013 meeting in the White House in which everyone on the administration’s national security team “recommended arming ISIS (McCain misspoke should have said 'moderate rebels' , " But, he explained, “the president, by himself, turned it down.”
McCain Makes Revealing Slip on Fox: Obama Didn’t Want to ‘Arm ISIS’
So are you dropping the Trump Lie that Obama founded ISIS, or will you keep on repeating it?
Or are you just going to run?
Speaking of confused - please allow me to quote you: "I your MichaelFkyn admits he is confused".I your MichaelFkyn admits he is confused. Some source?????!!!!
Michael Flynn isn't the least bit confused. Like every rational American, he's confused by Barack Obama's irrational and reckless foreign policy which arms ISIS to destabilize the most dangerous region in the world. You'd be confused by it too if you weren't an uneducated libtard who blindly worships anyone elected to office with a little "d" behind their name.I your MichaelFkyn admits he is confused. Some source?????!!!! No wonder he works for Trump.

I wonder if 'ole Hitlery has ever been able to make it through a full day without lying?
The FBI’s year-long investigation of Hillary Clinton’s private email server uncovered 14,900 emails and documents from her time as secretary of state that had not been disclosed by her attorneys, and a federal judge on Monday pressed the State Department to begin releasing emails sooner than mid-October as it planned.
He was inside the administration and director of intelligence, stupid. You're inability to accept reality over your precious little ideology does not make Michael Flynn a "conspiracy theorist".P@triot, post: 15047080Michael Flynn isn't the least bit confused.

Flynn admits he is confused. He is a conspiracy theorist. One must be confused to make up stories that are disconnected from reality.

What makes you think it is a lie?
Because Colin Powell himself said so, stupid...
