  • Don’t be fooled by Islamic Jihadist CIA operation propaganda, They were all black ops operatives dressed as jihadists who killed Americans to legitimize and expand the war on Mali.

    Mali war is all about gold in these end times.

    Now, we will hear from sheeple media about how US is planning to stay in Africa “for ever” to control Islamic fundamentalists . How convenient.

    Go ahead now and ask for proof :grin:

    common…ask me…where is the proof ….sheeple :idea:

  • I wonder if this kind of black ops operations could happen on U.S. soil…oh wait sorry already has.
