President Obama - The "current" War President - L.B.J. revisited.

How ironic that the Nobel Peace prize was given to President Obama just a month before he made his war surge speech last night to America and the World. The President did say during the election process that he believed that Bush and Cheney failed miserably by not maintaining a solid presence in Afghanistan after we invaded to track and Hunt Bin Laden, Al Qaeda, and forcing the Taliban out of the Government. However, everything changes, all the time and one can always make new choices using new information. President Obama does not want to appear as a typical "limp" Democratic President so he is going to do just like L.B.J. did with the Vietnam war, surge and prove his machoness even though L.B.J. openly spoke out about believing that it was bound to fail in the end. Which it most certainly did!
The American Military won every battle in Vietnam, but lost the war to the Vietnamese people who chose not to fight period.
If anyone thinks that the Taliban, men who are Afghans, born in the country of Afghanistan are going to be forced from their own country to flee and live elsewhere for the rest of their lives, while a foreign, occupying, non-Muslim country invades their Homeland to pillage their resources, than you are deadly mistaken.
These Stone Age Islamic countries will continue to live just as barbaric lives as their distant relatives because this is their choice. Only they now have AK-47's, and rocket launched grenades that were provided to them when American;s covertly funded their war campaigns against the Russians in the 1990's. They will force women to wear the head to toe, Burka, remove little girls from education, execute people in the street and in the open soccer stadiums for trial and judgement against Allah, and Sharia law, and they  will not give a shit what we think one way or another.
Face it, would you flee or fight if another country invades the United States? Would you collaborate with the foreign occupiers/ enemy, or would you be an insurgent?
History will repeat itself again because Human beings are Human. Weapons change, technology changes, clothing changes, cultures sometimes change, but Humans have the same emotions that we have had for quite some time and we react very similar to our ancestors from love, fear, greed, hate, compassion, intolerance, tolerance, racism, kindness etc, etc.......
America must ween ourselves from the Imperial, "Might makes right" syndrome that we have had the past 60 years and move forward away from the Military Industrial Complex that actually runs Washington .D.C. Until we find a way to provide employment, opportunity, and a better quality of life in America without going to war every decade, we are doomed to repeat this again somewhere else, under a different President, making the same false claims of  security.
Going to War is about making a profit. It is about taking natural resources forcibly from other Nations. There is nothing Democratic about this!
Americans should be more worried of poisonous legal Pharmaceutical drugs sold in stores around the country which kills close to 200,000 people every year, and yet they are advertised everyday and night non-stop! Americans should be worried of right wing Christian intolerant, bigoted, racist, religious groups forcing women into bondage as they have done since religion began!
Americans should be worried that in every city is large illegal drug crime gangs operating in the open poisoning your kids!
The Afghanistan invasion like Iraq has been a complete waste of Humanity and resource for Americans, and this was all forced upon us because the past two President's Clinton and Bush, in office for a total of 16 years failed to take out Osama Bin Laden when they had the chance, and that is a fact.
When will Bill Clinton and G.W. Bush/ Dick Cheney, and the Bush regime  be put on trial for this grave incompetence, and dereliction of duty to the American people?
Not anytime soon!

9/11 and why Bush/ Cheney actually enabled it to happen.

Today is 09-11-2009, 8 years after somebody/ Al Qaeda/ Osama Bin Laden, organised terrorists/ freedom fighters to crash high jacked commercial  planes into the Twin Towers in New York, The Pentagon, and where the final of the four high-jacked planes crashed into the ground in a open field. For New Yorkers today represents a day in History that they saw and felt the wrath of a hostile people, Islamic conservatives create havoc like no one had ever seen before in all of our lifetimes, other than the people who actually lived through Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the bombing of Britain and the leveling of Germany at the end of WWII. Wait a minute, what about Vietnam, 3 million civilians died, two Iraq wars and Afghanistan,  many 100,000's have died  and those were and are  atrocities where millions have been killed as well?
So 9/11 deaths although very tragic for the families involved, were actually minor by comparison.
The truth is that what happened 8 years ago was an incredibly horrible act, and that 3,000 Americans died due to no fault of their own. Sadly though America, my homeland has inflicted much worse punishment on other countries that is quite indescribable.
9/11 did not happen by accident by a bunch of crazy men in a far off country. It happened because of the policies of the US Government, controlled through corrupt Politicians, for the benefit of Multi National Corporations to prop up Dictators, Kings and other thugs so that they can get access to or simply take resources that these Corporation want so that they can sell them to consumers all around the World, namely oil. If these so called terrorists were just crazy men then how did they pull off the biggest attack on our country from caves? Why were we not prepared for this attack, when we already had the same group of people attack these very same buildings back in 1993 with a car bomb? What was Bush and Cheney doing 8 months into their first term to prevent this from happening when the CIA and Security had already told them that this was imminent? When Bush was told of the first plane crash, he was reading to school kids, and barely flinched? History has now proved that the USA got into WWI because of the sinking of the Lusitania, that turned out to be a set up to push the US into War. We now know that Pearl harbor was completely preventable, but the President at the time let it happen, knowing that we were warned by the Australians and British to be prepared for such an attach!
How did the Air Force get it so wrong that they did not scramble jet fighters up into the sky to possibly have to  take military action against these high jacked planes? They did, but it just so happens on this particular day the Air Force was holding practice sessions of how to react to high jacked planes at the very same time the high jacking was taking place, so that the fighter planes had not 4 planes to track but something like 20 and did not know what to do, and which plane to track. What a coincidence! Stunning to say the least, but extremely questionable.
This does not sound like organizational failure, this sounds like an inside job!
But again back to the terrorists that planned this operation. Originally these Islamic men were fighting their own people in Palestine in 1948 the year Israel was made a country, and ever since , then in Iran to over throw the Shah, an American puppet leader and brutal Dictator to his own people that we choreographed  with the help of the CIA, now is Saudi Arabia to force the King out and to get any American Military forces off of Arab and Islamic lands. To take Russia down after it invaded Afghanistan and was there for 10 years, and we the American government covertly sponsored the Mujaheddin, who are now the Taliban with weapons that they now use on our soldiers in Afghanistan.
The goal for these terrorists/ freedom fighters  is to keep all infidels from living in Islamic countries and spreading anti Islamic or counter religious and cultural knowledge. They do not care whether America is an open society or how we act. They care that America is a Military Country that props up Dictators and Kings that use our over whelming power to enslave their own people.
Bush and Cheney got this wrong, or they were in on it. The ex CIA Director/ agent Michael Sheurer, in his book "Imperial Hubris" describes the exact same thing, in that  we knew  a decade before 9/11 why these men of Al Qaeda were doing what they were doing. They were trying to prevent the USA through our gigantic Corporations from pillaging their own homelands, and taking oil, their only resource of value, while 99.999 percent of the populations in these countries starved, and lived in the dirt,  but the King and his family, well, they of course lived like Kings. We supported the King and not the people, and that is their fight!
The same thing is going on all over the World today. America props up corruptible regimes because US Corporations want their natural resources to sell to a thirsty and  hungry World, that has an insatiable appetite.
This will continue then along the same lines.
So who is really responsible for 9/11?
American Presidents, Politicians, and profit seeking Corporations  that use the American Military as pawns in the never ending quest for profit and wealth for the few at the expense of the many.
Our own Fore Fathers reacted the exact same way when Britain controlled the original 13 colonies. They too were terrorists, and Freedom fighters then as well, and they eventually drove the British back across the Atlantic. It is a good thing that we are friends now, for they are, like Australia our closest allies and not Israel whom we support with Billions every year to prop up a religious Government that has never done anything for the benefit of the American people.
As long as  American Politicians use the American Military to invade foreign countries, and not to protect our homeland, and sovereign borders of the United States of America of  which our founding fathers had written into the Constitution than this will repeat itself over and over, and we will see the same outcome.
Bush and Cheney you cowardly, spineless, self serving  thugs.
Next invasion, Africa, the Dark continent.

Get out of Iraq and Afghanistan now!

Who really wins in these Wars for profit?
The Military Industrial Complex, Big Oil, Big Banking Cartels, Haliburton, Politicians, and anyone else who can milk a profit from Death falsely justified trough religion and Nationalism.
Who loses in these wars?
Our soldiers who are used as pawns like on a Chessboard. The people in these countries themselves because Millions will be displaced and 100,000's will be innocently killed.
Now is the time for President Obama to show leadership strength and push to have all troops out of both Iraq and Afghanistan immediately. Sure he or the Politicians can make-up all the Bullshit reasons for why this will not or cannot happen, but they are just Bullshit reasons.
We can start leaving today if we choose to. But the profit driven business of war will push ahead relentlessly until the American people are sick enough to start voting these political criminals out of office and then, and only then, will there be more push to change directions. The only other option would be Revolution of the status quote. But by then the Business of War will have made enough profit to back down and re-group only to be planning on another War, in another part of the World to start the same process to happen all over again. Greed has no ethics, no boundaries, no shame. Greed is, the Richest of the Rich, wanting more at any cost and they will get it, for our elected, browning nosing, spineless, self serving Politicians will do everything to pad their own pockets at the expense of the American citizens who they are suppose to represent.
What has the American public received by the two Wars created by G.W.Bush ( The Half -wit) and Dick ( I'm not a Crook) Cheney?
6,000 dead service men and women.
$13,000,000,000.00 bill due, each and every month since 2003. Totalling  $3 TRILLION and counting!!!
Record deficits, at a time when the Country is in a near second Great Depression environment.
500,000 - 1,000,000 service men and women returning home with war fatigue, and mental issues that will haunt them for a lifetime.
10,000's of our returning soldiers are now Homeless, living in the streets.
They serve their country and then come home to drug, alcohol, other forms of addiction due to stress and lack of mental Health help.
Flak from the rest of the World knowing that our elected officials are even more crooked than any others on the face of the Earth, because here in America the numbers used are just like playing with monopoly money - nearly unlimited!
And finally complete political burnout from us citizens knowing that our elected official don't give a damn about anybody but themselves, their re-elections, and their Swiss and Caribbean secret bank accounts.
Stay tuned:
Next war coming to America - Africa, the Dark Continent, loaded with minerals, oil, gold, diamonds, timber, and anything else of value to be plundered.

War in Afghanistan and Iraq


What a complete waste of time, money and Human life in both the countries of Iraq and Afghanistan. The colossal failure and incompetence of G.W. Bush and Dick Cheney to allow 9/11 to happen in the first place and then to use it as a scapegoat to invade either country is simply treasonous. From the FBI to the CIA, and all other American Government Intelligence agencies, all have debunked anything of value that Bush and Cheney used to create these two wars for profit, and they are most certainly wars for profit. You the American taxpayer, Mothers and Father will pay dearly with the death of your children to satisfy the greed of G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney and all of the other enablers in the Senate and Congress who voted to go to war on the flimsiest excuses only because it was self serving to their own careers and to generate wealth for themselves in business contracts and bribes. Today on the CBS Evening News there was a Republican Senator in Afghanistan describing to the viewers how corrupt the Afghan Government was and is, and all I could think about is how Corrupt the Politicians in America are. Here's a guy calling out Afghan or Iraqi political thieves and he is one who belongs to the biggest bunch of thieves on Planet Earth, American Politicians!

Besides the 5,000 dead servicemen and women, besides the Trillions spent on these Wars for profit, the American public will get nothing but the bill, and full caskets. The people of Afghanistan or Iraq have seen 100,000's of their own countrymen and women murdered for the benefit of Halliburton, and the Military Industrial war complex, Exxon, Mobile, Chevron, etc... so that they can get a free ride to $$ Hundreds of Billion in profits for these companies. The only reason that G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Rumsfield, Wolfowitcz, Rice and the rest of the Regime are not in prison for war crimes, and treasonous acts against America is because both Republicans and Democrats have blood on their hands and they are surely not going to prosecute themselves. Face it, we in America live in the most corruptible society that has ever lived. Everyday politicians spend $$$ Billions, Hundreds of Billions, Trillions now of taxpayer money like it was Monopoly money because these greedy S.O.B.'s take bribes, extortion's, and cash stuffed into suitcases because it is a big game for them.

They all ask themselves, "How much can I steal while in political office without being caught" to enrich my life?

It is sickening, but it is fact.

How can this change? How can we weed out greed and corruption in Politics?

Unfortunately it cannot be done.

We either can simply just live with it or we create massive change. How this is done is anybody's guess. America is already bankrupt, printing funny money that each day is worth less and less, and one day it will implode. Whatever goes up must come down. The Roman Empire lasted 1,000 years, the British Empire of real power lasted 400 years, and the American Empire being run by the most corrupted men and women on Earth will barely hit 100 before, if it does that.

The Iraq and Afghanistan war cost Americans $13,000,000,000.00 each and every month since 2003, and will bleed the USA dry in the future.

I was in Thailand visiting a friend when the USA invaded Iraq in early 2003, and the people there asked me why "my" country was starting another war, because they lived through the US's Vietnam war, and I surely could not tell them any reasonable answer, for there wasn't any. I have been to Vietnam and have seen the devastation for myself. My wife is Vietnamese and lived through the horrors of American Imperial conquest. I knew that it was about money, power and greed, but I was embarrassed to say it because America is my beloved homeland and it is being run by dishonest, self serving crooks!
