Mrs. Merkel, please help us. You’re the only one who can stop the US mass murder and starvation machine. It wasn’t enough for Biden that Obama dropped 12,000+ US taxpayer funded bombs on Syria in 2016 alone. New Nuremberg trials must begin against US for crimes against humanity

“In 2016 alone, the Obama administration dropped at least 26,171 bombs. This means that every day last year [2016], the US military blasted combatants or civilians overseas with 72 bombs; that’s three bombs every hour, 24 hours a day.”

Jan. 19, 2017, “Map shows where President Barack Obama dropped his 20,000 bombs,” UK Independent, Harriet Agerholm

“As the world gears up for a seemingly more violent four years, it is worth reflecting on President Obama’s tenure

According to newly released figures, President Obama had already upped the number of bombs on foreign countries.

US forces dropped over 3,000 more bombs in 2016 than 2015, taking the grand total of strikes for the year to at least 26,171.

This map by Statista shows you where they were….

The figures are likely to be an underestimate, since the only reliable data only comes from a handful of countries, and multiple bombs can be classed as a single “strike” under the Pentagon’s definition.

But of the confirmed bombings, the vast majority (24,287) took place in Iraq and Syria, according to analysis of official data by Micah Zenko, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.”…

[Jan. 5, 2017, “How Many Bombs Did the United States Drop in 2016?” cfr.org, Micah Zenko…”Note: This post was updated to reflect an additional strike in Yemen in 2016 [and one on Jan. 8, 2017], announced by U.S. Central Command on January 12, 2017.”…“The U.S. military conducted strikes…in central Yemen on Dec. 29 and Jan. 8.”]

(continuing): “His research concluded that the US dropped 79 per cent of all 30,743 coalition bombs in 2016.…

Mr. Obama leaves the White House having authorised ten times more drone strikes than George W Bush and having been at war for longer than any President in US history.”

Jan. 9, 2017, “America dropped 26,171 bombs in 2016. What a bloody end to Obama’s reign,” UK Guardian, Medea Benjamin

“President Obama…dramatically expanded the air wars and the use of special operations forces around the globe. In 2016, US special operators could be found in 70% of the world’s nations, 138 countries – a staggering jump of 130% since the days of the Bush administration.

Looking back at President Obama’s legacy, the Council on Foreign Relation’s Micah Zenko added up the defense department’s data on airstrikes and made a startling revelation: in 2016 alone, the Obama administration dropped at least 26,171 bombs. This means that every day last year [2016], the US military blasted combatants or civilians overseas with 72 bombs; that’s three bombs every hour, 24 hours a day.

While most of these air attacks were in Syria and Iraq, US bombs also rained down on people in Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan. That’s seven majority-Muslim countries.

One bombing technique that President Obama championed is drone strikes. As drone-warrior-in-chief, he spread the use of drones outside the declared battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq, mainly to Pakistan and Yemen. Obama authorized over 10 times more drone strikes than George W Bush….

What does the administration have to show for eight years of fighting on so many fronts? Terrorism has spread, no wars have been “won” and the Middle East is consumed by more chaos and divisions than when candidate Barack Obama declared his opposition to the invasion of Iraq.”…
