U.S. Funding of Terror Finally Reported by Mainstream Media

“It’s like the United States government subsidizing the Taliban, aL Qaeda, the Haqqani network, those groups that are trying to shoot and kill our soldiers” Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), told ABC News’ Diane Sawyer last week.

On July 30, a report issued by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) revealed the depth of the betrayal. According to SIGAR, there are at least 43 individuals and companies that are suspected of being “supporters of the Taliban, the Haqqani network, and al Qaeda,” that regularly receive millions of dollars from the U.S. military. To its credit, in the report SIGAR recommends immediately severing all relations to these organizations.

In what has to be one of the most ironic excuses offered by the federal government for maintaining its support for these “enemies of the state,” the SIGAR report claims that such a severance would be unacceptable as it might violate the “due process rights” of the alleged terrorist beneficiaries.
