Not trying to bash anyone besides the insanity of giving money to your enemies. If you can't read any media, how do you propose we try to understand what is happening in the world? Not everyone can afford to fly everywhere they want to learn about.

I do agree with that, but, does anyone on here (ATS) actually give donations to these types of things without fully looking into it? I mean, on the surface, it looks good. Who wouldn't want to give to rebels to help them fight against a corrupt government? Wouldn't we appreciate it if we were doing the same? But, would we accept the money knowing that enemies have infiltrated the ranks, or rather go about it ourselves?

You guys need to truly understand this because I am coming from a Middle Eastern nation. The people over there NEED dictators. They can't function without one. I know what you are thinking "That's BS we need to spread democracy, yata yata yata". But the truth is that there are far too many extremists in the middle east. Look at our enemies; Iraq, Iran, Syria, (now i'm going into Africa) Lybia, Yemen, and etc. All hard nosed dictators. Now look at our allies; Saudi Arabia (brutal dictatorship but no one says anything because he is a King and is our friend), Bahrain (which quelled the democratic uprising using US weapons and the US media does not even mention them because we are allies), and Qatar (another dictatorship).
You will not hear nothing about this because, as Gerald Celente says, there is no more media, it is only propaganda.
