Syrian No Say Americans

Posted on May 3, 2013 by | Leave a comment

The aftermath of Bush’s war in Iraq still lingers in the hearts of Americans. A new poll  revealed that only 5% of Americans want US boots on the ground to aid Syrian rebels in their fight against President Bashar al-Assad and only 12% of Americans even suppor the idea of providing military assistance to the rebels. Why? The American public got burned by the lies and distorted logic offered by the Bush administration concerning why the need for war in Iraq.Once burned, twice cautious is the new belief among Americans. Secondly, the war in Syria is confusing, there is no clear cut group which, if triumphant, would establish a democratic society in Syria.

John McCain and fellow Republicans who want action NOW still do not grasp there is no one behind them in this quest. Secondly, it is as likely for al-Qaeda wo emerge victorious in Syria as those of secular beliefs. Caution if the word of this moment in Syria.

Peace Comes Before Peace

Posted on May 1, 2013 by | Leave a comment

During the South African struggle against white rulers there were numerous murders of innocent people, bombs set off, and innocent people killed. Finally, led by Nelson Mandela and concerned white people, a truce came about and people agreed not to look back, but to look forward. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission forgave those who had murdered, and, in so doing, set the stage for peace. US Secretary of State John Kerry has been working with the Arab League and both Israel and Palestinian leaders in order to get the path of peace to become well traveled. But, there still remain forces which prefer violence and accountability for past crimes.

Israel authorities killed a Palestinian militant who was behind violence. Hitham Masshal, a global terrorist” was taken out. On the West Bank, Eviatar Borovsky, a West Bank settler, was murdered while waiting for a bus. Prime Minister Netanyahu vowsa “we will not accept the sporadic firing of  rockets.”

If peace is the goal, then focus on peace.  Initially, it will not be perfect and some very bad people will get away with minimum punishment. Nelson Mandela understood that if peace is the goal, then end revenge and  concentrate of peace and harmony. It is a choice.

Guantanamo Forever!

Posted on May 1, 2013 by | Leave a comment

After the end of World War II, trials were held for those who led the Nazi government as well as for generals. Many were found guilty, some were executed and others placed in jail. Of course these criminals had murdered over 30 million people as well as raped millions and destroyed vast areas of land. In theory, those who fought against US forces in Afghanistan were supposedly to be either placed in prison and put on trial or….. At this point, it is unclear what the “or” was. Over a hundred prisoners are still in Guantanamo and there are no trials, no  charges brought against anyone, just endless hours and days of jail time. I imagine this group was responsible for, not millions, but hundreds of deaths.

Over 100 prisoners are on hunger strikes, at least 21 are being forced fed. The horror that is Guantanamo goes on and on. President Obama would like to close the prison, but, like always, he lacks the guts to do anything requiring moral courage.

Fact: Nearly all the 166 prisoners have been held without any charges filed agaisnt them. If they are guilty, place them on trial, if not, do the morally correct act-set them free.

Flying Saucers Sighted!

Posted on April 30, 2013 by | Leave a comment

I am old enough to recall the good old days when people gazed with anxiety at the sky as flying saucers zoomed above. For some reason, our extraterrestrial folk only wanted to go to the state of Arizona, I gather they came from warm planets and they were rather short and looked like illegal immigrants from Mexico. Six former members of Congress who were unable to arrive at a budget plan decided to hold hearings in order to discuss our alien neighbors. Stanton Friedman informed the meeting that a “flying saucer crashed and was retrieved by the government.” Life forms in this saucer have been kept in a secret room for over half a century while wars and famine rage on the planet.

I now understand why Congress is unable to reach a compromise on the budget. They have to get clearance from the alien government which is still debating whether or not to remain  on this planet. I suggest if they really are “intelligent life forms”they should be racing to the nearest saucer and heading to where there truly are “intelligent life forms.” It is beyond belief that Republican life exists on other planets in this universe. Alien, go Home. Now!

CIA And Afghanistan

Posted on April 30, 2013 by | Leave a comment

President Hamid Karzai admitted that his government received millions of dollars from the CIA during the past decade. The money was delivered in suitcases, in backpacks, and even in shopping bags. Karzai insists the money was only used to bring peace and prosperity to his land. Under no condition did his government used this money for other than programs to aid the poor or build roads and hospitals. Rumors of payments to war lords, to drug dealers, to fellow officials or to himself are absolutely not true. Hamid is a man of God, he is a man with only one concern-the welfare of his own people.

There might be some rumors about money going to drug lords, heck, there might even be some rumors that his brother was into the drug trade. But, since the CIA is only concerned with peace and charity, we can rest assured no money ever went to other than beneficial work for the people of Afghanistan.

Oh, Karzai did say something about money from Iran.

Russian Vigilantes In Action

Posted on April 26, 2013 by | Leave a comment

The essence of a totalitarian society is the desire of its leaders to end the rule of law and order which respects the dignity of the individual. Instead, mobs or young men are let loose to destory any semblance of respect for individual rights. Our Beloved Leader, Vladimir Putin, well understands that if youth vigilantes can beat up or murder “bad people” then it stands to reason these groups can decide who is “bad” and who is “good.” At this point, the issue is allowing thugs to make decisions as to what is or is not a crime. It is not surprising that vigilante groups in Russia are roaming the streets attacking people who they identify as “criminals.”

A pro Putin group of young thugs are wandering the streets of Moscow, seizing    alleged drug dealers, dousing their bodies with red paint and wrecking their cars– in the name of public order and safety. They are particularly angry at evidence of a new drug known as “spice” which is the latest scourge of the city. I have no knowledge about this drug. If it is harmful, then police should be responsible for ridding it from the streets. Of course, if there is common sense, then drugs should be regulated by the government to ensure public safety.

An Apology?

Posted on April 26, 2013 by | Leave a comment

It is  difficult being an inhabitant of the planet Earth to get through a single day without encountering evidence of human depravity. During the 1990s as the nation of Yugoslavia began to splinter into smaller pieces a vicious war broke out between Christian Serba and Muslim Bosnians. A particular event in the Bosnian enclave of Srebrenica resulted in the murder of 8,000 Muslims by Christian Serbian forces. Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic has refused to acknowlege this masscre until yesterday. “I apologize for the crimes committed by any individual  in the name of our state and our people.” But, he also insisted, “there was no genocide in Srebrenica.”

I assume when a government rounds up only Muslim men and proceeds to murder them it is clear this government seeks to murder any and all Muslim men it can find. I think it is fascinating when Christians murder people their religion is never cited, only their nationality. But, when someone of the Muslim faith is guilty of murder, their religion, not their nationality, is cited.

Morsi Sells Out Syrian Rebels!

Posted on April 22, 2013 by | Leave a comment

The one constancy in dealing with human rights since Mohamed Morsi became president of Egypt is his willingness to sell out anyone at anytime in order to maintain power for the Muslim Brotherhood. He betrayed the people who originated the uprising against President Mubarak by refusing to include those from diverse viewpoints in his Cabinet. He lied about his commitment to human rights, he lied about controlling the military and he has lied about his relations with other Muslim nations. This week he is in Russia where he literally begged Russian President Vladimir Putin for money and was willing to sell out the people of Syria who are fighting for their liberty.

Morsi told the Russian leader that he wanted a close political and economic relationship with Russia if only Putin would loan him $4.8 billion. Putin is among the closest allies of President Bashar al-Assad who has killed 70,000 people in his country. But, just hand over money and Morsi will hand over rebels. He is a sham leader whose only thought is money-not the lives and dignity of fellow Muslims!!

Syria And Guns

Posted on April 21, 2013 by | Leave a comment

It was only two years ago the Middle East erupted in demands for democracy and an end to petty dictators. It was only two years ago that secular and religious forces joined together in order to end the rule of Mubarak in Egypt and rid Tunisia of its semi-dictatorship. Thousands jammed the  streets of Cairo, people sang songs, they danced together and actually believed religious groups like the Muslim Brotherhood believed all were equal in a  new Egypt. That was then, today is now. Over 70,000 are dead in Syria, President Bashar al-Assad continues to insist he is only opposed by al-Qaeda and other “foreign” entities. Secretary of State John Kerry is proposing to furnish non-lethal aid to rebel forces.

Reality- Syria is a time bomb ready to explode if Assad is driven from power. Religious forces are prepared to take power, they are ready to force Christians to flee for their lives. There is NO peaceful solution awaiting if Assad leaves-as he must. We will witness another civil war who’s outcome is unclear. Prepare for the new civil war.

Who Runs US Government?

Posted on April 20, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Once upon a time in the history of the United States of America when we  had an army or navy or air force which supposedly conducted our military efforts. There were generals and admirals and a Chief of Staff to help coordinate all military efforts. That was then, then there is today. Under the administration of the great military leader, George Bush, things sort of changed. After all, Vice President Dick Cheney had received seven draft deferments during the Vietnam war since, as  he put it, “I had better things to do.” George Bush spent the war in a nice place in Georgia or Texas since dad really did not want to get him killed. These were the men who created a new armed force–the CIA!

President Hamid Karzai is not among the great military leaders of our time, but even he understands there can not be several armies wandering around Afghanistan fighting the same enemy. His National Directorate of Security, (NDS) works with the CIA and its special army of 3,000 to fight the
Taliban. No one  knows who is in charge, welcome to the modern American armed forces.
