    Crusades started 370 years after Islam started attacking. Also, I am holding as my prize, the West. This is my primary object of cheering for the Greeks over the Persians and Europe over the Muslims, etc. But, go ahead and make excuses for Islam, because it will absolutely change Muslim behavior.

    Interesting fact. Many on the left that called what Bush said a lie said exactly the same thing BEFORE Bush was elected. Why did it suddenly become a lie when Bush said it but perfectly OK with the left when their own said it?

    Consider the source....in not researching the information they are reporting as factual....FAKE NEWS from NBC...again.

    Now the truth....documented, testable. Someone says is another cousin of Anonymous and Alleged. There is no documentation just an ad hominem accusation....why not 15 trillion, 16 trillion..etc.,?

    You want to talk about spending or wasting money on a war? The US has spent some 22 Trillion on the War on Poverty since 1967....and the poverty index is exactly the same 14% as it was in 67. And the actual cost of all the wars the US has engaged since its inception? 1/3 the cost of the lefts war on poverty with US tax dollars. The 22 Trillion spent on Welfare...not including Medicare and Social Security....is 3 times more than the total cost of ALL THE WARS IN US HISTORY from the revolutionary war to this latest war on terror....COMBINED.

    Looks like its time to call a cease fire on the War on Poverty...its a losing battle. Especially when the government keeps moving the bar in relation to what constitutes poverty in this nation....now someone is considered impoverished if they earn less than 40K a year and they have dependent children.

    No the 14 trillion was pulled out of this characters ass...the actual inflation adjusted cost is somewhere around 6.8 trillion that has been spent on all the wars of US HISTORY COMBINED up to 2014....not just the past 30 years, 50 years 100 years...but 250 years. The left has wasted 3x more tax payer monies on its war on poverty over the past 50 years than the military has spent defending the US though acts of WAR over a 250 year period.

    Documented and testable.....the numbers come from the US government itself. Simply prompt "references" at the end of this report from the heritage foundation. The data is actual...not jerked from anyones ass. If anyone can prove that one source of reference is not true....simply disprove the data coming from the US government itself.

    Are you saying an individual Catholic parishioner is responsible or can be held accountable for what a priest did? Interesting how you consider all Catholics responsible for what some priests did viewing all of them bad because of a few. You do until the group is black, Muslim, the poor, etc.

    The problem is with the entire Muslim world and always has been. Why do you think the West, Africa, India, China, Russia, and the Philippines all have the same problem?

    Notice how the blame is placed on the 'right wing'? Half a truth = 1/1 a whole lie. Here are the democrats that supported the Iraq war in Oct. 2002, the one's that voted Yea on resolution 114...a 'joint' resolution that authorized military action against Iraq...there were 29 Yea votes on record in the Senate with the 107th Congress of the United States....among those 29 yea votes

    BIDEN, CLINTON, DODD, FEINSTEIN, KERRY, REID, AND CRY BABY CHUCKY SCHUMER. In total in both houses....more than 100 democrats voted to allow military force in Iraq.

    The left attempts to rationalize that vote by saying....THE CIA lied and mislead them....today...the CIA is the best thing since sliced bread and anyone that does not accept the opinion presented by US intelligence is in secret....in bed with Russia.

    It just depends on what the latest left wing cause of the day is....as to whether you can trust the CIA. Today...the left wing cause is to de-legitimize the current administration that handed them their ass on Nov. 8, 2016. Anytime that Trump passes wind.....the lefts headlines read...TRUMP SHITS HIMSELF.

    The money is here in this balloon.

    946. Two unprecedented big bubbles(2/8/2017)

    Real estates bubble.(see chart at #944) Stock market bubble.




    You don't have to be an expert to realize the two big balloons Americans are facing. Yet where are those professionals, economical officials and media people? In coming months, you will see a lot of news, events to encourage people to jump into the speculation pool to buy the securities, houses.

    Trump to Halt Obama Fiduciary Rule, Order Review of Dodd-Frank

    Katherine Chiglinsky, Justin Sink, Elizabeth Dexheimer
    Bloomberg February 2, 2017

    President Donald Trump will halt an Obama administration regulation, hated by the financial industry, that requires retirement advisers to work in the best interests of their clients, while the new administration reviews the rule.

    The president also will order a review of Dodd-Frank Act rules enacted in response to the 2008 financial crisis, a White House official said. Trump is scheduled to issue the directives at a signing ceremony around noon on Friday following a meeting of more than a dozen top corporate executives led byBlackstone Group LP Chief Executive OfficerSteve Schwarzman.


    finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-halt-obama-fiduciary-rule-063803815.

    He is going to open a pandola box to release financial demons. Those demons had caused 2008 financial tsunami, were locked up by Obama, Trump wants to free them to make America greater?

    It's funny that they accuse Clinton represents the interest of Wall Street. What about Trump?
    Read 2 and 3 of last message(#945) to see how the Feds rule this country.

    And this balloon.

    945. The 2017 bubble(2/1/2017)


    It was the popping up of the housing bubble that caused the financial tsunami in 2008. The bubble hasn't been cleaned up completely. The real estate loan were lended from banks. No big bank collapsed. They were bailed out by government with tax-payers' money. The banks still held large quantity of foreclosed houses. Then we saw Federal Reserve's Quantitative easy program. That money took over the foreclosed houses for a larger bubble. QE3, where the central bank had spent close to $40 billion per month in mortgage-backed securities. So much money injected into real estate's area, that's why I said there is only one bubble - the 2007 one hasn't been cleaned up and the residue has been extended to a even bigger one - I call it 2017 bubble.

    A bubble needs money to keep it to inflating. Federal Reserve had spent nearly four trillion to blow up such a big real estate ballon. It seems they don't want to pour money into that hole any more. So a crook is pushed out to take that responsibility.

    I say 2017 bubble because: 1. Federal Reserve said it likely will increase interest twice this year - that will pop up the housing bubble.

    2. The unprecedented 2016 election in US that put an unqualified man on president seat. I said something big will happen that nobody (party) want to take the responsibility. (see "902. Trump's job (2) (5/7/2016)")

    3. Something big (other then the coming economic crisis) will take place in Europe: War; natural disaster; terror attack.... to distract people from that economic crisis, and drive the money in Europe to US to take over the bubble too. It relates to Russian. I believe Putin is bribed by the Feds to cooperate on this. Trump's Russian love is not a coincidence.
