It’s the progressives in Europe and USA who tolerate Islam and terrorism.
Obama sent 1 billion dollars in cash to Iranian mullahs
Over simplification. Highly recommend watching this doc. Obama was Bush 2.0 with different marketing. Obama had the secret kill list remember? The neo-cons funded the groups that eventually began to turn on the west. They funded them to bleed the USSR without risking outright war. Sounds like anything happening now? Every war is a rich man's game. The politicians are just store clerks.
Curtis's doc called Bitter Lake is also good on this covering the war in Afghanistan.

My point is that yes Obama talked a different game. Not a fan. But he was not the first to send money to fund bad dudes. Others did before and after. Its happening now. Both / almost all sides do it. Why? War is the power of the state. They get the plebs distracted fighting about party politics and domestic issues while they make their rich overlords even richer.

This is why the deep state hates Trump. He is not a neoconservative. He is an outsider who doesn’t play by establishment rules and norms.
Obama is the only president to send cash to Iran. Not wire transfers but shipping cash like it’s 1800
