While presidential candidate Donald Trump has spent most of his early campaign railing against Mexicans, his interview with CNN this week provided some of the first glimpses of his foreign policy intentions when he vowed to “bomb the hell out of” oilfields in Iraq to defeat ISIS.
Trump insisted targeting Iraqi oil fields would defeat ISIS in short order, and that “I wouldn’t send many troops because you won’t need them by the time I’m finished.” Though ISIS has seized some oil fields in Iraq, the Iraqi and Kurdish governments control the lion’s share, and are producing large amounts of oil.
Military analysts were quick to caution against Trump’s plan, saying that in destroying the economic infrastructure of Iraq “you’re not really doing much to hurt ISIS,” but that it would do significant harm to Iraq in the long run.
Retired Lt. Col. Rick Francona cautioned against Trump’s assurances that he’d just send in Exxon to fix everything up afterwards, saying rebuilding heavily bombed out infrastructure is “easier said than done,” and a problem the US has run into in the past.
The success of destroying the Iraqi infrastructure and not rebuilding it is a huge chunk why things are the way they are now. The US took a decent country (not its government of course) bombed and sanctioned it until it was broken beyond repair.
It really looks like Donald Bibi loving Trump really thought this through. That has already been tried: http://www.businessinsider.com/us-bombs-isis-oil-…
Even without the refineries, fine upstanding American allies (sarcasm) would give them money to kill Shia. Is he going to destroy their oil fields too?
JEEZ::: What a jackass.
These are the years of Neo Fascism, they are pupping up like a poisoned mushrooms everywhere, dressed well with plenty of gambling and stolen real states money or banking notes, having good times with beauty "paggents", fooling people with their bad haircut and poisons speeches where they want to become the president of USA, good help bless America, is a must praying day for the world.
