The topic of conversation in the media is the amount of oil money ISIS makes every day.  President Obama, laid out his strategy  to defeat the Islamist jihadists known as ISIS and stressed that it will take time to eradicate a cancer such as the terrorist group which is represented in the Middle East. Our leader plans to work with our allies to “degrade and ultimately destroy” ISIS.  At the present time this brutal organization is controlling the oil fields in Iraq and Syria.  ISIS uses that oil wealth to help finance its terror operations.  My question is – why is it the countries in the Middle East in conjunction with the U.S., Great Britain, France and Germany cannot shut down ISIS’ financial operations in order to stop the flow of money to ISIS?  Someone has to be handling the money which flows to them.  Surely we have some tech geek that knows how to break into ISIS’ money flow.  

The other threat that is being hurled around is this “cyber attack” on the U.S. With the way these tech geeks monitor what I write, you cannot tell me they cannot monitor and know what and how ISIS is using the internet.  If not, then they need to start monitoring what and where their flow of information is going.

The other fact is the war that ISIS has declared is on the world not just the U.S.  These groups are angry because their countries are not giving them a fair shake in life.  So why don’t they fight their own country instead of taking on the whole world.  It seems that is the way people are – they blame everyone but themselves.
