OBAMA
TORE A PAGE RIGHT OUT OF GEORGE W. BUSH’S BOOK!
(FRAZER
CHRONICLE)
(All
the News That Nobody Else Will Print)
Well,
so much for President Obama being a dove, or soft on terror, or not wanting to escalate
whatever the hell is going on in the Middle East, or cutting defense budgets,
or troop numbers, or a robust attitude towards those
Islamic people that call itself…..”the Islamic State.” I watched much of his press
conference on television this morning, September 5, 2014, and unless I missed
the part where Obama said that he was kidding, the United States
could be in real trouble.
At
the conclusion of the NATO Summit in Wales September 5, the president said, “unequivocally
that the extremist group calling itself the Islamic State must be
dismantled, degraded, and ultimately defeated.”
This
reaction might have been brought about by the criticism that Mr. President
received with regard to his statement about not having an exact plan of action
pertaining to the Islamic problem, and for saying the “goal was to roll back
the ISIS-ISIL organizations to a point it was manageable!”
Now
all of a sudden the American President is ready to “get after” these Islamic
people that are causing trouble…..in their part of the world. The
president, some liberals, and 99% of Republicans and conservatives seem now to
be on the same page with regards to the ISLAMIC question.
EVERYBODY
IS ENTITLED TO CHANGE HIS STANCE, BUT EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW THE ISSUES
People
throughout history of changed their stance on issues, some changes for the
better…..others not so good, however for this article we’ll dispense with that
history and focus on the crisis at hand…..ISIS, or ISIL. To give you an idea of
exactly how confusing this issue is, let me lay this bit of levity on you…..”the
United Nations, and the United States, State Department has dropped the letters
“ISIS” which stands for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, and
now use the letters “ISIL” which stands for Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant.
Confused
yet, well hang on to your panty hose folks, it gets better, these bad
guys want to stretch their land from southern Turkey, through Syria, to
Egypt, Lebanon, Israel, the Palestinian territories and Jordan…..(and I don’t mean Michael Jordan either).
Some refer to the region as “al-Sham,” or “al-Dawla al-Islamiya fi Iraq wa al
Sham…..come on, even my computer can’t figure out some of this stuff.
Oh
yeah, Levant is a word used by the English meaning to describe a
broad territory of land…..I’m not too sure why anybody would use the word Levant,
land grabbers, robbers of territory, rip-off artists would seem to be a more applicable
term for what seems to be going on…..oh well, such is life in today’s world of
trouble in foreign lands.
I’m
not too sure that the White House, the Defense Department, or the Congress
knows exactly what in heck is going on over there. We’ve had our
lllllooooonnnnnggggg nose in the area for decades, and with little concessions
a petroleum products, we’ve only spent taxpayers money.
HERE’S
MY FEAR
Have
you read heavily into World War I history, not so much the aftermath, but the
reasons why the world actually first burped? Yes that’s what I’m going to call
wars from now on…..burps, gross gaseous stomach air…..almost as gross as
passing gas.
Today,
September 5, 2014, President Obama talked about treaties, our allies, friends,
and those people that are oppressed, and how there is a coalition of the NATO
to stamp out this “vermin” (my words, not the presidents, but it’s what he
meant).
World
War I begin on July 28, 1914, when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia,
although a small conflict between two countries, the reaction spread quickly to
include Russia, Great Britain, Germany, and France. Both Britain and France
were drawn into the military activity because there were involved with treaty’s
that had been in place for two and three decades.
There
had been a build-up of naval and military war machines during the first decade
of the 20th century that the generals dearly wanted to use…..and
since they had the weapons just sitting around, why not? The financial cost to
the Allied Powers…..Britain, France, the United States and others has been pegged
at $127,650,477,000, and for the Central Powers, Germany and others…..$60,643,160,000.
The
human cost, wow, around 40,000,000, both military and civilian, that’s a whole
bunch of orphaned children and a lot of widows running around trying to make ends
meet, and raise those orphaned kids at the same time.
The
worst part of the entire equation…..all the money, all the death, and all of
the dismembering didn’t solve a damn thing, what it did do was give Adolph
Hitler a soap-box from which to spew his evil message of racial genocide, and
another world war that was twice as bad as the first.
Is
NATO and the president headed in the same direction? Well, let me put it this
way, the United States has been warring in Afghanistan since the late fall of
2001, and we left Iraq in December of 2011, and in both cases, the U.S.
intervention has not solved a single thing.
SIEG
HEIL!
