Paris attacks, TTIP, ISIS and death of democracy

Posted by picard578 on January 11, 2016

TTIP is a free trade agreement that is being pushed by the United States and onto the EU.

ISIS has first appeared on scene after the US invasion of Iraqi in 2003. It was taking actions to broaden the scope of Sunni-Shiite civil war in Iraq by targeting Shiites, and it has been trying to take over Shiite territory for far longer. Since US troops withdrew in 2011, ISIS has focused its attack on government targets. Read the rest of this entry »
