Surviving Capitalism (Not) : Seymour Hersh exposes how Obama supports ISIS at all costs, even ignoring advice from his own Joint Chiefs of Staff

We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Seymour Hersh exposes how Obama supports ISIS at all costs, even ignoring advice from his own Joint Chiefs of Staff

Hersh essentially summarizes his recent report entitled "Military to Military" and refuses to speculate on why the administration does not follow the recommendations of its own intelligence services. It seems rather obvious to me that the administration's policies are consistent with a general strategy of fomenting divisions among Arabs and creating chaos in order to achieve a breakup of countries such as Iraq and Syria, and control the region better to serve the interests of the Empire and Israel. I think Hersh must know this, but simply can't say it in order to preserve his neutrality and his contacts among the military.

The article, titled “Military to Military” alleges, based on sources within the military, that the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Defense Intelligence Agency advised President Obama against an “Assad must go” policy back in 2013, fearing if Assad fell the country would plunge into utter chaos or into the hands of extremists.

When the Obama Administration seemed to ignore the advice, according to Hersh’s sources the Joint Chiefs began sharing intelligence with Russia, Germany, and Israel with the understanding it would be sent to the Assad regime and aide its fight against ISIS and other extremists groups. In the interview, Hersh discusses the implications of his story, the US’s relationship with Turkey, and why the mainstream media is quick to attack him.
