CNN trotted out Benard Kerik this morning as an expert

on how to handle home grown terrorists. He's he same 9/11 fear mongering cowardly prick who is a home grown criminal himself. "In 2009 Kerik pleaded guilty before U.S. federal prosecutors to 8 charges including criminal conspiracy, tax fraud, and lying under oath. Kerik was sentenced to four years in federal prison on February 18, 2010." CNN is dead as a news organization.

...to let us know how to deal with ISIS.

All the people who were wrong about Iraq are the same people they will turn to for advice on how to deal with ISIS.

news is show bizz and CNN realized years ago to make up graphics and sound cues to make reallity more interesting and glitzy .

These " experts " they trot out are like magician's assistants to pull attention away from the crappy tricks of deception .
