The Age of Asymmetric War Arrived
September 11, 2001
The Age of Asymmetric Policy Arrived
March 17, 2003
The fundamental transformation of the United States of America officially began on November 4, 2008.
Communist Party USA is rejoicing.
Read the facts.
Eulogy
Do you remember 1987?
WAR !  On 9/11/01 you were drafted into war. You have no choice -- you're in. You may support retaliation. Or, you may be against protecting yourself from further attacks even after having been surprised on 9/11, and threatened frequently since. We are living through a worldwide war regardless of your perception. Regardless of your politics, this is fact:  This war must be won. A win occurs when terrorism is prevented from impacting your homeland & when it no longer is able to spread its anachronistic, miscreant hatreds aimed to destroy Western Civilization. The question is, are we going to win it soon or are we going to fail to effectively retaliate making it a divisive, long, costly war?
Today's worldwide war is taking unpredictable twists and irreconcilable turns. There are forces that have been working mercilessly with an intractable dedication for a century to undermine capitalism and freedom in America. Amidst philosophical schisms and class warfare, these destructive forces have experienced substantial increments of progress in the 21st century. These emerging forces espousing socialism and societal fascistic control are intrinsically incongruous with the precepts of American capitalism and freedom.
Distinctly opposite polarized positions are developing. Masses of ordinary people are being aroused and, in self defense, standing up for their principles. Ascending forces of socialism and fascistic control that perceive success is imminent are displaying themselves and their plans to fundamentally change America.

American Warriors, Be Proud. You Are Strong.

Never Despair, American Warriors

You have earned the pride that you should have in yourself. You have demonstrated your courage and strength.

The year 2009 was the most deadly for members of America's military forces since the government began tallying military suicides in 1980. America's warriors are killing themselves in record numbers:

301 US warriors committed suicide in 2009.
Attention, America's warriors: You have no cause to despair. You have cause to be proud of yourself, your service, and your America. Pause to consider.
As you pause, consider your service. Do not decry your good fight against evil. You have defended your country. You have exhibited stoic strength, honor, and faith in your nation. Consider the nature of people.
When, by a chance of our time's politics and culture, deplorable fringe elements conspire to dishearten honorable warriors, those warriors must apply lessons learned in battle. Warriors should consider why they went to war, why they endured enemy action, why they have earned the right to return home to the safe and secure Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. All of that applies to you because you fought to keep the United States of America safe and secure.
The United States of America is safer, stronger, and more secure due to your sacrifices. Today's warriors are earning through their investment of all that any American has -- his life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. We each have freedom, safety, and Constitutionally-guaranteed inalienable rights.  However these rights are only as solidly guaranteed as is our nation strong.
Today's warriors are ensuring and preserving the enduring strength of the United States of America.
America's domestic enemies want to break your confidence. They work to demean your accomplishments. America's domestic enemies want to diminish your efforts.
Today American warriors should comprehend that there has come about a set of circumstances that granted a fringe from America's domestic enemies and traitors control of her government. This condition is being largely resisted by Americans using America's strength and her potent tool -- The US Constitution and the people's rights guaranteed therein. America's domestic enemies will not succeed over the long term. Their attempted fundamental transformation of the United States of America into a socialistic command system will fail.
No soldier, sailor, Marine, Coast Guard, Special Ops, Air Force, silent fighter, or other American warrior should despair when he witnesses domestic enemies attempting to deceive the mass of our civilian citizens into surrendering the rights and liberty that you have sacrificed to ensure.
American warriors should be confident that freedom must be tenaciously fought for -- sometimes on foreign soil and, strangely enough, today on American soil.
Each American warrior should for his own sense of justice comprehend that the vast majority of Americans rally -- although often too quietly -- behind them rather than standing tall with them. But America's warriors should never despair. They continue to be essential and will continue to wage the honorable fight in foreign lands and on American soil defending America and Americans' rights, liberty, and safety.
America needs its warriors to continue defending and securing America from foreign dangers and from domestic spoilers. America needs all of its warriors to return home and continue to serve America by serving themselves a grand portion of the free life they fought to preserve.
America cannot afford to lose even one of its warriors directly in battle or to the sometimes-natural despair that befalls individual warriors.
America's warriors must fight and defend themselves from defeatism engendered by overly empowered despicable, deplorable domestic forces of evil that deceitfully endeavor to undermine the good these warriors have accomplished. You, American warriors, are the very special Americans who had the courage, conviction, and conscience to sacrifice for the America you know to be worthy of your sacrifice.
American warriors, hold on tight to America. Americans are holding on tightly to you in your time of trial.
The End Of Pessimism
Traditional American optimism is being destroyed and replaced with pessimism.
But pessimism will not stand in America.
Pessimism is not fun, is uncomfortable, and inhibits productivity. Americans do not like that. Americans want to be happy and productive. Americans are beginning to resist the negative forces being imposed upon them because they are intrinsically optimistic.
No one knows how the negative forces will be defeated, but they will be defeated. Americans will be better for having gone through this exercise.
And, following this exercise, to be known as the Greatest Civics Lesson In History, Americans will appreciate America and all that they were handed so easily.
Before The Beginning
In 2007, Bill Ayers' wife, Bernardine Dohrn, 1960s member of the terrorist Weather Underground group, now law professor at Northwestern University, announced that their goal is to take control of America and "dismantle capitalism, that evil thing".
BO's campaign for the US Presidency was officially kicked off in the Hyde Park home of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
The Road To Less, Down, & Failure For All Americans
In October, 1957 the USSR placed the first man-made satellite in orbit around the earth.

It was 23 inches in diameter and weighed about 3,000 pounds. It served to allow measurement of the earth's atmospheric density, and provided for analysis of the ionosphere & radio signal dispersion. It was a first -- The First.
America awoke from complacency and apathy to accepted the challenge.
Today the USA is cursed with a president who neither understands scientific concepts nor has any substantive plan other than to destroy the USA that he despises and believes has been the cause of all that is bad.
Today Americans will deserve the changes they are starting to perceive and receive if they continue to cheer this traitor.
You Cannot Take Anymore
The day will arrive when the United States of America has no more that even today's vastly overly-empowered unworthy, self-entitled takers can take.
You may denounce, vilify, shout, and flail your arms in frenzied disdain at living and dead white European males, but who designed, built, and continually improves Western Civilization?
Will we sit idle whimpering while empowered thugs dismantle capitalism, diminish our rights, and redistribute our earnings to those who have little skill, care not for work, and understand no tradition beyond their contrived pseudo-heritage of abusing each other?
Then Over There. Now Over Here.
Attention all you anti-American Americans, you haters of the United States of America, you socialists, you fascists, you who fail to have the guts to attempt to make it in a fair, competitive capitalistic economic environment wherein your skills and fortitude will be tested....  Attention you who undermine America and abuse its goodness, generosity, intellectual and economic accomplishments....  Attention you traitorous weaklings....
You have had the privilege to be born or somehow due to the open generosity of America, assumed the rights and privileges of citizenship.  You have endeavored to abuse the US Constitution, Bill of Rights, and educational and political system to get far enough along in society, to develop physically strong enough, to gain enough status, to use your rights and acquired resources from the USA to now be empowered to attempt the undermining of the USA.
How Is BO Accomplishing His Fundamental Change?
BO appoints czars. They report only to him. Each was selected not simply for being morally and ethically freaky and weird. Each has solid ideological positions that match BO's.
The White House contains a force of czars that is empowered to implement BO's plans for fundamental change. These czars circumvent the US Congress. The US Congress becomes more impotent everyday. It abdicated power when it passed the first Stimulus bill and Obamacare. It will abdicate more power if it passes financial regulatory change legislation, Cap-and-Trade legislation, and illegal immigrant amnesty.
BO is concentrating power in the White House. By using the cabinet and regulatory powers he will be able to rule the nation without Congressional checks and balances.
Review the list of Obama-appointed Czars. It is clear that it is only a matter of time before they restrict more of your rights. Constitutional amendments are on their list. Those amendments include: Your Freedom of Speech and Your Right to Bear Arms.

America's Civil Rights Struggle -- The Civil Rights Struggle To Regain Individual Rights & Liberty.
The USA is in the midst of its Second Civil War.
This war may appear civil. But it is divisive and real, and it is not civil. If men and boys were dying by the thousands in American towns and cities, if generals were explaining battle plans, if tanks were in the streets, more Americans would comprehend that America is immersed in its Second Civil War, an uncivil civil war.
This civil war may not appear to be war. It may appear to be little more than the daily shouting matches on radio and TV containing endless streams of stammering, hand-waving juveniles pretending to be journalists. This is the publicly visible portion of America's Second Civil War.
America's Second Civil War is more destructive and deadly than its 19th century civil war.
America's Second Civil War is being fought by a radical left that has prepared for and trained its army of lazy, poorly-educated underachievers for five decades.
America's Second Civil War had been passively observed by the rest of America, whose philosophy is independence and liberty with civility. This philosophy acts as an inhibiting force preventing active retaliation against the radical left.
That is, until in 2009, when the new American president pushed too far and too hard in an attempt to change America into a bankrupted nation so that he could realize his vengeful socialist statist dream.
After several months of Obama's presidency, independently minded, decent, ethical, hard working Americans from across the political spectrum began to comprehend the true meaning of Obama change.  People everywhere see Obama's now-homely, non-smiley face everyday demanding their surrender so he can change America into his socialist dream. When decent Americans perceived that their new president's change would result in the bankrupting of America followed by redistribution of wealth from America's successful earning group to the less-successful and least worthy underachiever group, genuine Americans joined the struggle to save and protect America.
In mid-2009, it became apparent that defending the US Constitution, The Bill of Rights, the principles outlined in the Declaration of Independence, and all that allowed Americans to build the most successful nation in history would require going beyond rhetorical use of these documents' principles.
In mid-2009 Americans began to stand up and actively defend America from socialism, Marxism, and fascistic government tactics and takeover.
Americans are awakening to wage their Great Civil War. Americans are comprehending that they must save, protect, defend, and re-implement the US Constitution and America's founding principles of individual rights and liberty in order to put America back on its productive path.
To do any less than actively defend the US Constitution would prove that elitist radicals are correct when they laugh, despise and show disdain for America and most Americans.
To do any less would prove that Americans are no longer Americans. To do any less would demonstrate that today's Americans would succumb to the always failed policies of socialism and thieving redistribution promoted by the elitist socialists now controlling the federal government.
Amidst their narcissistic, constrained-eating, must-exercise, self-involved, nihilistic lifestyle, Americans are awakening to realize that it has always been their Constitutionally-guaranteed individual rights, those now being eroded, that have permitted even this aberrant behavior.
Americans comprehend that they must react and resist radicalism. Americans are waging their Great Civil War.
Why Are You An American?
Why did you, your parents, your grandparents, or other ancestor come to America?
Did you or they hope to find prosperity, religious freedom, peace and safety, individual rights, and career opportunities? Surely you and they understood that America is the Land Of Opportunity & Freedom.
Bingo! You were given all of these wonderful possibilities by The United States Of America!
Why would you want to have the government change America into a nation lacking freedom and individual liberties? Why would you want the government to change the Land Of Opportunity into the land of the poor waiting to be handed its daily allowance? Why would you want to change America into a nation like the one you or your ancestors left?
Why would you want the government to control America's economy, health care, cultural choices, and dictate what you can and cannot do, and other aspects such as what health care benefits you are allowed to receive?
If you are an able-bodied American reading this, you have little reason to complain about America. You may just need to get up and get a job. Then, if you have the skill and work hard, you may achieve much for yourself.
The government cannot give you anything nearly as wonderful as what you can earn for yourself.
The BO Plan... Now do you get it?
What Is A Win In Afghanistan?
Has anyone -- politicians, generals, pundits -- paused to define what it actually means to "Win In Afghanistan"? Has anyone put together a brief business-plan approach that identifies "Win" before attempting to make strategic and tactical decisions regarding Afghanistan?
The only way to win is to first define win, devise a plan to reasonably assure our win, and correctly implement that plan to win.
Losing Until Lost
As long as Americans continue to battle faction by faction amongst themselves, arguing over who has rights, who should pay for whom, and whose feelings were hurt over some idiot's comment, glance, or name calling, America will continue to decline.
There will be nowhere for Americans to hide because America will have declined beyond a recoverable point. Americas' economy, living standards, personal safety, and its citizen's ability to make progress and earn a good living on their own will be less than today.
Americans will cower and cringe in securitized homes in decaying cities and suburbs, live lives filled with anxiety and uncertainty, work in unstable and unpredictable businesses.
Americans, to see your future, consider the actions of your US Congress. Picture the lines of impotent, innocent travelers wasting time waiting to be searched at airports. Consider the abandoned, decayed, dirtied cities with their drug cultures of no work and handouts. Search your workplace for a cooperative, competent worker.
Destructive trends are in place.
Obamacare, Doctors & The Hippocratic Oath
Obama’s Budget Director, Peter Orszag, admitted one month after Obamacare became law that a "powerful Rationing Panel (Not Doctors) will control health care levels". This non-doctor panel known as the Independent Payment Advisory Board has the power to deny or allow medical procedures, allocate medical resources, and control the use of the American health care system.
Medal Of Honor Recipient Bud Day Talks Of Torture
"They commenced torturing me again with 3- 6- or 9 strokes of the fan belt every day from about July 11 or 12th..to 14 October 1969.  I continued to refuse to lie about my roommates again...."
"Now, the point of this is that our make-believe president has declared to the world that we (the U. S.) are a bunch of torturers.  Thus it will be OK to torture us next time when they catch us.... cuz that is what the U.S. does."
My Life For My Country
How many of you would die for the nation that has provided for all that you are, now have, will ever have, or will ever become?
It is difficult to believe, but there actually are some genuinely fine men of the highest character from the State of Illinois. They are genuine Americans. Not creatures of the world.
Not A Leader
Obama is not capable of being a leader. He is a standard, run-of-the-mill, ordinary and simple, demanding demagogue.
Even from the most potent position in history, he is capable of only instinctively demanding.
Violation
With no regard for the lives nor the accomplishments of US forces in stabilizing & building Iraq, Barack Hussein Obama pulled an amazing stunt during his visit to Iraq.
The New York Post has quoted Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari as saying that Barack Obama -- during his July visit to Baghdad -- demanded that Iraq not negotiate with the Bush Administration on withdrawal of American troops. Obama wants the Iraqis to delay withdrawal negotiations until after the presidential power transfer near the end of January. This would delay US withdrawal due to internal Iraqi activities including their elections.
Obama's action is a flagrant violation of US law: Specifically the Logan Act. Obama was attempting to provide an excuse for the next president to further delay withdrawal from Iraq.
The US Constitution, The US Presidency, & A Man
When a US President ignores US Constitutional procedures, when he disregards US Constitutional limits, when he works to undermine the fundamental intent and precepts of the US Constitution, he breaks his oath of office.
Will Americans, in their too-easily-gained freedom, in their flabby, apathetic, oh-so-comfortable, lazy nihilism sit by and allow their Constitution to be usurped, ignored and dismantled?
Sunrise Sunset
Welcome to another bright sunny day. Oh yah.... Another of those boring, repetitive days of waking to peacefulness, comfortable home life, and a secure freedom to do as you like. Another day of that boring drive to work in that comfortable car, working to earn a decent living, feeling good about your prospects, returning home in the evening to the same old dinner table, relaxing after dinner with your reading, hobby, and if fortunate, your spouse. Don't be concerned. Those boring, repetitive days are coming to an end.
Open Display
During his inauguration celebration which was in actuality celebration of the United States' inauguration of its 44th president, President Obama failed to appear at the Salute to Heroes Inaugural Ball. Obama is the first president to skip the ball since its inception in 1953.
Weird
September, 2008 -- Obama campaign workers working in their office preparing to fight McCain-Palin.  This -- a political war -- they fight! This is the best they can do with themselves.
This setting & imagery are warped.

 

You probably are familiar with John McCain. You should become familiar with another who has become your Commander-In-Chief Obama. This does affect you.

 
Why Is He Bowing?
American military personnel will die to keep our flag from touching the ground.
This abysmal excuse for an American has managed to shame himself and embarrass America before the world beyond anything heretofore seen.
Now are you beginning to comprehend what socialism, Communism, and the Alinsky method are?
Capital gets it & is taking flight.
Sterilization
The plan is to remove the confidence and optimism that has always provided Americans' intrinsic motivation to struggle, work, and succeed.
That is why Obama repeats daily that all things are bad and it will take years to recover. Obama wants America's economy to fail. He wants Americans to surrender.
BO -- managed by William Ayers & Alinsky -- believes that eventually Americans will surrender all power and rights, succumbing to socialism with them in charge.
Thank You, USA
On January 31, 2009, the Iraqi people voted in their second free election since the USA-led liberation of all 26 million Iraqi people freed them from the sadistic, deadly, dictatorial Saddam Hussein regime.
Surely millions of Iraqi people want to say, "Thank you, USA, for sacrificing your finest military men and women and allowing the division of your people into the wise and the unwise".
Nuclear Weaponry News
The prestigious International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) predicts that Iran will have enough enriched uranium to make a single nuclear weapon later in 2009.
Iran's Inept Leaders Delayed
January 20, 1981 -- Ronald Reagan was sworn into office. Concurrently with that change, the Iranian kidnappers released the US embassy hostages they had taken 444 days before.
According to some hostages and upon examining photographs of the ordeal, it has been determined that one of the kidnappers was the man who is now president of Iran. This man, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has sworn to wipe Israel off the face of the earth and to destroy the great Satan, the USA.
Consider January 20, 2009. The US could be preparing to celebrate the inauguration of President Obama rather than President McCain. It has been 28 years since President Reagan faced down and humiliated the Iranian terrorists. What might one of those terrorists -- now president of Iran -- do to save face and make up for his humiliation?  Read of the possibility.
Daley Should Pull Out Of Chicago
CBS News affiliate cbs2chicago.com tracks Chicago shootings. Statistics are compiled from reporters, wire services & the Chicago Police Major Incidents log. Over a recent period there were about as many murders in Chicago as there were US war deaths in Iraq & Afghanistan combined.
CBS' research found that 125 people were shot dead in Chicago from the start of Memorial Day weekend, May 26, & the end of Labor Day, September 1.
According to the US Defense Department, 65 US soldiers were killed in combat in Iraq. Roughly the same number were killed in Afghanistan over the same period.
Additionally, during the same period in Chicago, an estimated 247 people were shot and wounded.
Chicago may be too dangerous even for the infamous Daley political machine.
Freedom Of Speech
Hello:
WarInformation.com recently received this appalling message from someone who viewed this site. We are interested in our viewers comments on this blatant attempt to restrict speech by someone who simply disagrees with our views. We'd like to learn your views on free speech and attempts like this one to demonize those who hold differing opinions.
Sincerely,
The WarInformation Staff
Here is the email we received:

"This website - http://www.WarInformation.com/ - appears to be a black ops site. It's full of misinformation and dangerous opinion. And the person operating it appears to be some kind of secret agent, someone who hides behind a mask and refuses to show his or her actual identity. The site is designed to foment fear, stir up distrust, and spread propaganda. It is deeply misinformed about such subjects as 9/11, WW2, and the "war on terrorism."
Clearly, this website is an enemy operation and a threat to the stability of the God-fearing USA. It must be taken down, now. I will be reporting it to the FBI, CIA, NSA, and IRT."

What is your opinion of this person's free expression of his thought that many of you are fighting to preserve?   

Iraq -- June, 2008
The latest report from the Brookings Institute regarding the effectiveness of the troop surge & where Iraq stands today, June, 2008, compared to 2002 under Saddam's regime:
1.)  Iraq's GDP has doubled;
2.)  Potable water access has doubled;
3.)  Sewage system access has doubled;
4.)  Electricity output has nearly doubled;
5.)  Telephone availability has increased ten-fold;
6.)  Cell phone availability has increased 100-fold;
7.)  Internet access has come from non-existent to widely available in cafes;
8.)  Free TV, radio, & newspapers are widely available;
9.)  The right to speech & assembly & vote is available;
10.)  Iraqis have the right to purchase cars without exorbitant tariffs.
Women’s chances of receiving arbitrary detention, torture, and rape has gone to near-zero since the untimely death of Uday Hussein.
Thank you, USA & allies!
US troop deaths in the War Against Terrorism's Iraqi front declined during May, 2008. It declined to the lowest level since the start in March, 2003 of the mission to liberate Iraq.
Nineteen US soldiers died.
The decline in deaths is a product of sacrifices, near-impossible work and hard-won victories earned by the US military's grunts and leadership.
Knowledgeable Americans understand the sacrifices made. Many wonder how to display their very sincere appreciation.
ROE Changes
ROE is shorthand for Rules Of Engagement, the rules that govern among other points, when & if a US Marine, infantryman, sniper or other combatant is allowed to fire upon the enemy. The following ROE change has been reported in recently published books written by veterans of the war in Iraq.
During the 2004 fighting in Fallujah, ROE were changed to require US military not to fire upon an apparent insurgent who is carrying a weapon unless this insurgent had been positively identified as a person who is about to use hostile intent toward the US Marine or soldier.
This ROE puts unwarranted & dangerous restraint upon US Marines & soldiers, endangers their lives, & gives the enemy unfair advantage -- especially after they realize how to use this ROE to their advantage.

Agree     Disagree      Because:

One Consequence

Obama's presidency will cause voluntary military enlistments to:
Increase              Decrease
Obama will need to re-instate the forced military draft to meet the 21st century's defense needs.
 Agree              Disagree

Policy Legislated, Implemented, Now Politicized
Policy Now Politicized & Used By self-serving Liars
October 31, 1998, President Clinton signed into law the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998. This legislation had been proposed and promoted by a bi-partisan group consisting of members of the US Congress. At the signing President Clinton said:
"The United States favors an Iraq that offers its people freedom at home. I categorically reject arguments that this is unattainable due to Iraq's history or its ethnic or sectarian make-up. Iraqis deserve and desire freedom like everyone else. The United States looks forward to a democratically supported regime....
"My administration has pursued, and will continue to pursue, these objects.... The evidence is overwhelming that such changes will not happen under the current leadership [of Saddam Hussein]."
Money Trumps Bullets
2008 -- Uncoiling For The Massive Power Shifting Payback Year --  For over three decades Middle Eastern ruling families have been amassing the huge wealth they possess today. Over the last decade China has been amassing the huge wealth it possesses today.
Sovereign funds & wealthy Middle Eastern families are accomplishing what suicide bombers and al Qaeda are failing to accomplish: A takeover of Western civilization using financial means rather than mass-murder coercion.
Learn Of The Exposure Of The Imperial Beggar
Death Count Down
During the no-real-war years of 1981 & 1982, 5,670 US servicemen and servicewomen died.
During the War On Terrorism years of 2005 & 2006, 3,799 US servicemen and servicewomen died.
These facts demonstrate that battlefield medicine has become very effective and fatalities due to traffic accidents involving military vehicles have decreased.
Japanese POW Policy Announced
On August 1, 1944, the Japanese government announced its policy regarding the treatment and disposition of all POWs.
Official Japanese policy was proclaimed to be the annihilation of each and every one of the POWs. Japanese policy was to capture, hold, and eliminate all trace of each POW.

Betrayal
Some Americans write books, leak secrets, and expose top government policies, thereby displaying apparent US failures. These Americans seem to believe that they can continue to undermine America, yet they will always continue to live safe, comfortable lives in Fortress America.
These self-serving takers are going to find themselves left naked some day when there is no more to take from America & America's remaining supporters refuse to protect America's betrayers.
A Story
Retired Colonel Bud Day (pictured left) relayed one of the stories Americans should hear. It involves what happened to him after escaping from a North Vietnamese prison during the war. When he was recaptured, a Vietnamese captor broke his arm and said, "I told you I would make you a cripple."
The break was designed to shatter Mr. Day's will. He had survived in prison on the hope that one day he would return to the United States and be able to fly again. To kill that hope, the Vietnamese left part of a bone sticking out of his arm, and put him in a misshapen cast. This was done so that the arm would heal at "a goofy angle," as Mr. Day explained. Had it done so, he never would have flown again.
But it didn't heal that way because of John McCain. Risking severe punishment, McCain and Day collected pieces of bamboo in the prison courtyard to use as a splint. Mr. McCain put Mr. Day on the floor of their cell and, using his foot, jerked the broken bone into place. Then, using strips from the bandage on his own wounded leg and the bamboo, he put Mr. Day's splint in place.
Years later, Air Force surgeons examined Mr. Day and complemented the treatment he'd gotten from his captors. Mr. Day corrected them. It was Dr. McCain who deserved the credit. Mr. Day went on to fly again.
Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to The "United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."
That is Honor and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

Serving All US Including Congress
Thanksgiving 2007 arrived at the Forward Operating Base Airborne in Afghanistan. The men pictured above and their fellow protectors from other nations are genuine men true to their cause of liberty for all. They serve to ensure that civilization remains safe and that we may continue living in our comfortable, secure enclaves.
This base is too typical. It is a rectangle of concertina wire and barricades in the middle of no where. It is on a hillside 8,400 feet above sea level. Its inner compound is protected by bunkers and it is about 300 yards long and 175 hundred yards wide. This space shelters tents, armored vehicles, several latrines and mortar pits, a helicopter landing zone and little more.
These men serve and, while they defend, suffering injury and death, the US Congress suffers under the weight of piddling politicians whose apparent primary concern is their petty careers.
These Congressmen who piddle apparently care little for the caliber of the nation they are responsible for maturely leading and wisely funding. Congressmen wiggle in weasel mode attempting to gain domestic political power. Too many elected officials act seemingly unconcerned that legislation they hold up and the demoralizing interviews and speeches they proclaim undermine the men who are truly earning their constitutional rights and US citizenship. But these Congressional weasels fail to comprehend that the nation they toy with is diminished by their inability to act as men regardless of their gender. They care not that the nation they will be responsible for tomorrow may be diminished due to their piddling today.
Thank you to each and every service man and woman for serving the United States of America. We know you are working to win battles ahead of our nation's failing leadership. You truly know right from wrong. You understand the values that built the USA.
Two Plus Two Makes More War
Rebels belonging to the Party for Free Life in Kurdistan stand in formation after returning from cross-border raids.
Two arms, two fronts, apparently one cause, the PKK and and the PJAK fight east and west while sharing leadership, logistics, and allegiance.  Read the story.
More Cold Than Cold
The Cold War was simple. It consisted of two superpowers, each at a minimum was more than adequately armed and empowered to destroy the other.
Today's Global War Against Terrorism is different in the most meaningful aspect. Civilization has more than enough technology and firepower to destroy any traditional, rational enemy. However civilization demonstrates daily the lack of will and psychological strength needed to defeat its enemy.
However and more meaningfully, what shapes cold war into this frozen war is that this enemy has no compunction regarding death. Often it prefers to die while carrying out its mission of death.
Today's terrorist regime is global and decentralized. It lives amongst us in growing numbers, often cannot be recognized, has seemingly limitless patience while planning to destroy, and has sworn to its highest being that it will eliminate all non-believers.
End The War

Tourism Flourishes
The Iron Triangle Observation Platform shown above is in front of the war truce line. It is a four-story building built in 1988. It is a 300-person capacity building with 8 high power telescopes. It provides a view of the DMZ and parts of North Korea.		 We did withdraw.
On June 25, 1950, North Korea announced a formal declaration of war and what is known as The Korean War officially began. On July 27, 1953, the US-led coalition agreed to a armistice. The two sides have been at a stand-off ever since. There is no peace treaty between North & South Korea. A total of 29,557 US warriors from all services died in battle and from battle-related injuries.
The US has manned the DMZ since July, 1953. Hundreds-of-thousands of military personnel have stood prepared to defend the DMZ every day since 1953. There is no end to this stand off in sight.
So what do today's "Just end the war in Iraq now" critics expect will happen after the US quits and leaves?
If Iraq falls, it would mean that all US and allied warriors will have died in vain. It will mean that the world will be held hostage by fanatical demagogues who live so they may die and then exist in their contrived heaven.  Read the full story.
Bumper Sticker Generals
Bumper sticker spotted:
Support Our Troops
End The War
Have the self-commissioned generals who turn their cars into political podiums played in a school yard when young? Have these self-commissioned generals never experienced the wrath of one of those stupid, nasty bullies standing in front of his mob of unthinking, lame followers?
How do the self-commissioned generals plan to end the war? Might these self-proclaimed experts just walk off the battlefields? Do they comprehend the objectives and methods of our enemy?
These self-commissioned generals sitting back home are safe because our military is keeping them safe. Do these self-commissioned generals not understand that ending the war is precisely what our military is working to achieve?
Only those who have died in combat know the end of war.
Restricting Freedoms
Florida State Senator Frederica Wilson wants to put a stop to illegal aliens. Pause. Not undocumented immigrants, but a stop to use of the term "illegal alien" used in official state documents. She said, "I personally find the word 'alien' offensive when applied to individuals, especially to children. An alien to me is someone from out of [sic] space."
X The Saudi Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice condemned the letter "X". They claim it is too similar to a hated, already-banned symbol, the Christian cross.
This group has ultimate say in all legal, civil and governance matters in the kingdom. It issued a fatwa, or religious edict, against the "X".
Saudis are rewarded with unearned income simply because they possess oil. Legislators strive and connive to restrict freedoms they were awarded.
When the unworthy are handed unearned riches, power, or any asset, they often abuse and misuse it.  Read the facts.
Taiwan Has Plans
Taiwanese military honor guards demonstrate pride and organization while practicing for National Day ceremonies in Taipei.
Increasingly outgunned by China, Taiwan is quietly moving forward with plans to develop missiles that could strike the Chinese mainland.
US and Taiwan military experts estimate that China adds up to 100 new missiles a year to its forces arrayed against the island nation of Taiwan.
A spokesman for China's Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council stated in a news briefing, "We sternly warn the Taiwan authorities not to play with fire".  Read the story.
If Only

We are not free to withdraw.

Withdrawal under fire, failing to stay the course, losing a war used to be known as quitting, giving up, surrendering. That is not how the US built itself into the greatest economic, agricultural, scientific, industrial, military, free democracy.
What might these quitters who today demand that the US leave Iraq have demanded in 1942 when the Japs and Nazis were solidly defeating the US and its allies on all fronts?
Do these quitters not see that we are under siege even at home? We are waging a global war on several fronts. One front is Iraq.
Today's Doughboys Deserve & Need Leaders
In 1917, at the start of the first of several times during the 20th century that Americans went to Europe to save Europeans from themselves, George M. Cohan wrote a song entitled "Over There". The song's chorus follows.
Over There, Over There
Send the word, send the word,
Over There
That the Yanks are coming,
The Yanks are coming,
The drums rum tumming everywhere
So prepare,
Say a Prayer
Send the word,
Send the word to beware
We'll be over, we're coming over.
And we won't be back till it's over over there!
Today's doughboys are patriotic, tough, and prepared to quell the ubiquitous insanity that threatens Western Civilization more desperately as days become years.
It is a testimonial to our contemporary Doughboys that they are able to succeed as well as they do in Iraq and around the world while operating in a leadership drought. Today's Doughboys fight -- and too many die -- because there is a near-complete lack of leadership. Fortunately for them, lame leadership is a world wide phenomenon.
We will win this still-years-to-go clash of civilizations only when we finally muster effective leadership worthy of leading our Doughboys.
Assholes Are In  Charge
It's So Damn Expensive, Silly Boy!
Who is making the evaluations,  judgments and decisions that cost American lives? It appears that bureaucrats and bean counters are running the logistics of WWIII.
The Pentagon announced that US troops serving in Iraq will receive at least 1,000 fewer special Mine Resistant Ambush Protected, MRAP, vehicles this year than were expected for 2007.
Roadside explosive devices continue to be responsible for a major percentage of deaths and maiming in the Iraqi and Afghanistan battlefronts of WWIII.
Morrell said that due to the number of MRAPs planned for production, it will be more cost effective to send them by ship rather than air -- even though it takes longer to deliver them to the Americans who are daily defending and dying for our homeland.
Morrell said he did not know which units in Iraq would be affected by the production shortfall this year.
Who cares? Morrell and his coworkers at the Pentagon get paid the same and go home every evening regardless of how much protection gets delivered to the brave troops fighting and dying for Morrell's homeland.  Read the full story.
Possible? Yes. Plausible. Definitely.
The UK removed The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it "offended" the Muslim population which claims it never occurred.
This is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it. It is now more than 60 years since the Second World War in Europe ended.
To remember the Holocaust is to understand the destruction and agony of the six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated with the German and Russian peoples looking the other way!
Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be "a myth," it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.
This clearing of history disregards the most recent and opens the door for the next holocaust. Who might that one include?  What are you and who claims that you offend him?
Masterminds Not
The media proclaim that the terrorists who plotted to blow JFK Airport were masterminds and their plot was fantastic. However experts believe this scheme, like the thwarted plot to attack a military base in New Jersey, was another case where the plotters' ambitions exceeding their capabilities.
The targeted pipeline is designed to shut off when it detects heat and would have shut itself down thus preventing the chain-reaction explosion the plotters envisioned. It is impossible to get inside the JFK Airport to do the type of damage these plotters planned. Even if they had succeeded in detonating a bomb, there would have been some terrible damage, but the entire complex would not have been destroyed.
The mainstream media may never accurately label the vast Homeland Security cadre of intelligent, diligent, persevering, military and civilian Americans as masterminds. That is be because our American cadre thwarts potential attacks and the public and media never learn about them.
A Nation Of Laws?
Does The United States Of America intend to remain a nation of laws? Do Americans intend to lead the free world? Do Americans see that the breakdown of lawful behavior will inevitably lead to disorder?
The Logan Act was passed in 1799 under President John Adams. It prohibits private citizens from negotiating with foreign governments without official sanction.
From Jesse Jackson to House Speaker Pelosi, inept, inexperienced, self-serving, crass, so-called leaders are embarrassing the US government's elected leaders and weakening any potential US foreign policy initiatives.
Do Americans want to lower themselves and their nation to the less-productive, less-honest, less-developing status of all other of today's nations?
Announcing Their Arrival
There is a bronze statue by Edvard Eriksen. It has sat on a rock in Copenhagen, Denmark harbor since 1913. The statue was sculpted in tribute to author Hans Christian Andersen and draws about 1 million visitors a year.
The Little Mermaid statue in Denmark's capital was found draped in a Muslim dress and head scarf early one morning. A few days earlier, its face, left arm, and lap were found doused with red paint.
Police removed the clothing after a telephone caller reported the defacing.
In 2004, someone put a burqa, the head-to-toe Islamic robe, on the statue, along with a sign questioning Turkey's bid to join the European Union.

Many anti-war, no-self-defense activists fight as hard to quit as warriors fight to win.

Times Are Nasty & People Are Ignorant
When the US reluctantly entered WWI, Irving Berlin wrote the song "Over There". This song celebrated the positive approach to deadly war. This song acknowledged the obvious pain and death, but stated affirmatively that we are going over there, going to win, and going to end WWI.

Unhappy New Year
The Iraq War does not exist. World War III does exist. Today's fighting in Iraq is only one front in several within the long war known as WWIII, the War Against Terrorism.
Any fool can quit today and exit tomorrow thereby escaping the fight in Iraq. Our self-proclaimed enemies will continue to fight amongst themselves in multiple civil wars throughout the Middle East killing their own civilians and making no economic or social progress.
During their infighting they will blame the US and Western Civilization for most of their troubles. Factions of militants, failures, losers, insurgents, fanatical young men breed only to fight and now, having nothing else to do, will seep into Western Civilization. They will wreak chaos, destruction and death upon the quitters and losers who failed and quit Iraq before the job was done.
History will make this clear to you also if you are alive and able to see.
Pretend
If only the Iraqi insurgents and their masters from other so-called nations of the region had been clever.  If only, they could have conquered Iraq easily by now. It could have been so easy for them and so easy for the US coalition.  Read the story.
Their National Pastime
It is either great fun or they have nothing better to do.
Certainly
Americans of today's United States of America are not worthy of the institution constructed over centuries and collectively known as the United States of America. If they were, they would not react to World War III with such terror. Americans are reacting to the newly visible WWIII by attacking their leaders and neighbors.
Certainly our leadership lacks wisdom, insight, strength, and fortitude. But Americans are getting the leaders they deserve.
Certainly, American culture has deteriorated greatly over recent decades. Journalists and their media have devolved into juvenile tabloid sensationalists. The best of the media use political issues in an attempt to sustain their failing business model. Americans consider actual news to be the latest violent, sensational, trashy headline. In a civil era, these stories would not be reported. Today they are headlined. But Americans pay and accept them.
Americans must recognize the need to think, unite, search for, and promote worthy leaders. If not, the institution known as the USA will collapse. Then US history will make interesting study for the next prosperous culture to analyze why it declined into failure.
Will the USA have failed due to immigration of too many unworthy? Forced acceptance and promotion of the unworthy throughout the labor force? Widespread filth perpetrated ubiquitously under the guise of entertainment? Over-empowerment through aggrandized distortion of everyone's rights? Excessive benefits and remuneration to too many without commensurate labor having been expended?
Certainly.
Will good ol' American leadership be aroused before it is too late?
Failure
It has been only three years since the Iraqi people were handed their freedom by the United States coalition. The Iraqi people are failing to aggressively embrace the rights and achieve their potential after being handed liberty by the US.
Iraqis have centuries of history filled with myriads of people who fought, won, and effectively used freedom to build productive societies.

Tactics
 
No thinking person should be confused when confused politicians misuse and misconstrue the terms strategy and tactics.
Strategy refers to to an overall conceptual plan and approach based upon guiding principles. Strategy involves statesmanship, politics, military resources, coalitions of significant long-range objectives that rest upon large-scale, high-level interests, and feasible planning. Strategies change little over time. Strategies are based upon substantive, basic principles.
Tactics refer to the detailed actions, handling of events, and methodologies used to deal with implementing the strategic plan. Tactics often need to adapt for enhancement over the short term. Tactics must react to enemy reactions and the latest winning and losing of all factions on all fronts.
Misguided Movie Buff
North Korea's hereditary leader Kim Jung Il continues to misdirect the North Korean people and their resources. He has focused significant resources and massive human potential toward building a military machine. Now he is arming that machine with nuclear weapons.
Mr. Il starves his people while he eats lobster with silver chop sticks and drinks champagne every day. He plays in his 20,000 movie library, preferring James Bond over Ronald Colman.
Mr. Il deprives the North Korean people of the prosperity which they are capable of achieving at least as well as their fellow Koreans of South Korea.
The world, the United Nations, and North Korea's neighbors continue to stand by and allow his behavior. Reasonable observers can only expect the obvious from this juvenile who has now gone beyond toying with nuclear paraphernalia. It is simply a matter of when.
OK. Quit.
So, you want to just get out of Iraq. Let's just end it.
Recall Vietnam:  Quitting resulted in the overrun of South Vietnam by the communist North Vietnamese. The US military was demoralized. US foreign policy was discredited. All those who fought, died, and were maimed did so in vain.
Finish the job in Iraq and win, or quit and cower in America and Europe.  Read the story.

Us
It was natural for Western Civilization to transition from the Great Depression into World War II. People knew hardship. They treasured life & liberty and knew it was worth fighting for.
Today it appears impossible for people of this, the most self-involved, self-adoring euphoric era, to transition from self-aggrandizement into World War III. People know little history, fail to appreciate their comforts, and have diminished into weaklings.
How we react when we finally perceive ourselves as losers will determine our fate.

If Israel does not defend itself, it will be destroyed.

Israel will not exist.
Iran's leadership has repeatedly openly called for the annihilation of Israel -- for Israel to be "wiped off the map. Leaders of other nations of the region support this objective politically, logistically, and through funding of surrogate paramilitary groups.
Israel has been threatened, attacked, experienced years of homicide bombings that killed and maimed civilians, and been targeted by marauding terrorists who enter and kidnap Israelis. If your homeland experienced some of this, how would you react?

Dick & Jane went on a vacation. They paid their round-trip airfare. Never did it enter their minds that anyone else might pay. Bob & Sue's employer sent them on a business trip. Their employer paid the round-trip airfares. Never did it enter their minds that anyone else might pay.

Wiped Off The Map

Israel is smaller than New Jersey. It is seen here as the tiny bright-golden 8,000 square mile area in the map's middle.		 Leaders of some Middle Eastern nations and militant groups have declared that their objective is to "wipe the nation of Israel off the map". Other leaders and people of Middle Eastern nations express viewpoints indicating that they do not oppose that objective.
So what might the victors do with their newly acquired 8,000 square miles once 6 million Israelis are removed? Might they replace Israel's scientific and medical research and its high-tech product development?  Read the story.
Using Language To Conquer
French Canadians centered in Quebec during the 1970s forced a complacent English-speaking majority to legislate it into a French language province. The 1977 passage of Bill 101 created the requirement for French to be the primary language of Quebec and limited the use of English in signage and official documents.
Gradually over decades French speakers managed to force their language upon the entire province.  Read the story.

Unbounded Audacity
The Dubai ports deal delineates supporting politically-oriented leadership from support of the United States of America. There is an obvious priority that cannot be disregarded and demands ultimate concern for, and protection of the US of A. The US of A is more important than any politics and any business deal.
Could it possibly be true that the politicians promoting this deal truly fail to see and comprehend the potential openings it provides for fanatics?
Americans & Western civilization must watch to see how Dubai owners of the port operation contracts escape this issue without transferring them. Will they simply set their price high enough to fail to attract buyers... and then claim no buyers materialized? Dubai-owned & controlled DP World knows that Congress and most Americans will have forgotten this issue by then. After all the noise, there may very well be no transfer.  Read the story.

Oil
Dateline Dubai, 2/24/06 -- Al Arabiya television reported a large explosion at Saudi Arabia's Abqaiq oil facility. The Dubai-based TV station quoted witnesses saying there was shooting in the area known locally as Baqiq. It is one of Saudi Arabi's biggest oilfields.
Most Saudi oil is exported from the Gulf via this huge Abqaiq processing facility. It handles about two-thirds of the country's output. This facility includes processing and pumping stations that send oil to major Saudi export terminals.
Civilized nations must free themselves form the bondage imposed by dependence on Middle Eastern oil.
Please Buy Our Oil

Buy it by the gallon, the barrel, or tanker load		 Despite oil's importance, its price alone will not impede progress derived from technology but will expedite our decreasing oil dependency. Problems prevailing in the Middle East can cause oil price spikes anytime. OPEC nations need customers.
They may not say please, but Middle Eastern and South American rulers will eventually sell oil... if not today, the day after tomorrow.  Read the story.

Therefore, most US military personnel understand their fight and freedom. Not all politicians do.
Rational Perspective

Liberating Europe circa 1943		 Numerous bombing runs over Nazi Europe resulted in limited tangible progress yet caused the death of over 500 US fliers in a day. Numerous land battles in Nazi-held Europe resulted in losses of territory and the death of tens-of-thousands of US troops. Regaining Japanese-held South Pacific islands often resulted little gain in territory, yet cost tens-of-thousands of US lives. 5,000 US & allied men died in the weeks to win Iwo Jima.
Many of these fliers, sailors and soldiers were killed and their bodies were never recovered. Recovery was not feasible or possible due to the nature of their deaths. MIA, missing in action, was common. Family, friends, and compatriots mourned privately with respect for the dead... and understood the meaning of physical loss in war.
Yet, because of these and other sacrifices, on 9/2/1945, both the Nazis and Japanese had been defeated.
The Iraq War which liberated 26 million Iraqis and toppled one of the most despicable dictators of history has claimed over 2,000 US service people and hundreds of allied service people.  Read the story.

Fiddling
The US Department of Homeland Security is fiddling while the United States is being targeted and is about to be ignited.
Losers
Is it because the US & Western civilization are losing World War III and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that so many Americans demand we quit, cut, run, and cower in our insecure homeland?
Religious Wars
From the beginning -- man being a contentious being -- he has waged war over every conceivable cause. One of the best causes has been religion.
For those who scowl at Muslim internal warring and fanatical externalizing formulated into global terrorism, consider a small portion of Christian history.
Consider just the 16th and 17th centuries and envision only Europe. Hundreds of thousands of military and civilians died during these centuries of religious wars. There were the Calvinists, Huguenots, Lutherans, Puritans, Catholics, the Anabaptists and more. They were entangled by royalty including kings and queens variously named Charles, Louis, and Mary of Scotland and Elizabeth of England. And, various Catholic popes alternately enflamed and divided various factions to suit their short-term desires.
In the ultra-civilized 21st century, hatreds are so on fire that even the threat of nuclear annihilation fails to quell fighting.
The Frenchies Took Ten
In 1789 France erupted in revolution. The civil war tides twisted while varieties of factions ebbed and shifted in blood shed. Multiple demagogues and groups came to power and failed to build and ensure peace. Finally, in 1799, leadership established a foundation which allowed liberty, an economy, and the nation-state to develop.
In ignorance only does the world -- including today's French and sports-minded, frightened Americans -- want to remove the coach and ridicule Iraqis for failing to recover from 33 years of Saddam Hussein's murderous dictatorship. The Iraqi people have only been liberated for three years.
So who can justifiably whine that Iraq is slow to democratize and civilize?  Read the story.
Lame
President George W. Bush requested that Democrats and Republicans work together to develop a new strategy for the war in Iraq. The day of this debilitated request, December 9, 2006, will someday be seen as when the United States ceded the win to its enemy and anointed the loss of the Iraqi war front of World War III to the United States.  Read the story.
Everyone Knows
In 1940 pacifists held such a beachhead inside the US that FDR had to set up the Lend-Lease program -- a sham -- in order to provide Britain with armament enough to stave off the impending German onslaught. Suddenly on December 7, 1941, the rage of World War II hit all Americans including pacifists.
In 1990 the self-satisfied, self-centered generation lived in aggressive arrogance. It was not as well educated as it thought, but it was certain it knew everything and invented most everything. Suddenly on September 11, 2001, a self proclaimed enemy of civilization who lives to prevent progress and destroy freedom and individual rights turned US institutions of government and business into flames replicating the murders at Pearl Harbor in 1941.  Read the story.
Taste The Consequence
News from World War III's Iraqi war front:
Within days of the 2006 US midterm elections, insurgency, counter-insurgency, and sectarian violence in Iraq increased significantly. More civilians are being killed in in a day than were being killed in a month just one year ago.
The enemy of Western civilization now has proof and realizes that the US is preparing to cut and run as it did in Vietnam in 1975. The North Vietnamese and Chinese Communist enemy did not pursue Americans from Vietnam into America.
However, today's fanatic Islamic enemy is prepared and will follow the US into its homeland. It will also be activating its network of cells throughout Europe and the remaining English speaking world.
11/11.  Not 9/11
Do you recall? November 11 is Veteran's Day. For decades it was called Armistice Day.
However the appellation, "Armistice Day", had to be changed during the Cold War, since it referred to the armistice that marked the end of World War I. Recall WWI. It was promoted in its time as, "The war to end all wars".
Ah, WWI. The precursor to the "Big One", WWII.
And then came the near-half-century long Cold War with its numerous "skirmishes, confrontations, police actions, clandestine dog fights, and frequent "Let's go save those people!" type of wars.
And then came 9/11 -- the official kick off to WWIII. Note that acceptance of the kick off definition remains in open argument. That argument is among people who know too little about most things, but believe they know all about everything.
Perhaps that is why the "Oh my God, I can't go to war to fight and kill, and maybe even get killed myself" crowd refuses to acknowledge that we are now waging WWIII. They also refuse to acknowledge that Iraq is only a battle front -- not a war theater.
But why does the "Oh my God, I can't go to war to fight and kill, and maybe even get killed myself" crowd fight so violently against its fellow Americans about not fighting to win WWIII?
It appears that the "Oh my God, I can't go to war to fight and kill, and maybe even get killed myself" crowd is waging war against warriors defending them from our common enemy.
Veteran's Day - Armistice Day - 9/11... these are confusing days in which we live and die.
Iwo Jima
The battle for Iwo Jima was fought from February 19 to March 26, 1945. Massive defensive shelling made an organized landing of US forces impossible. Beaches were red and confused. 6,825 Americans were killed.
Today a small portion of Americans are again fighting to preserve freedom for all Americans. It is inconceivable -- but true -- that some half of all Americans fail to accept the need to fight. On the Iraqi war front of World War III, some 20 to 100 Americans die each month.
Too many Americans smugly lounge around the homeland afraid to mature. They are locked in juvenile play modes while trying, but failing to look and be cool.  Read the story.
Perspective
Iraq is a relatively minor distraction in a major war.
Pause to evaluate:  Imagine Iraq today if Saddam had been left to develop his power.
Pause to see:  If the US quit Iraq, fanatical terrorism would win nearly all of the Middle east.
In the chaos that is war, the sum of the parts is less than the whole.
Not Meaningful
He is not living the good life. Osama bin Laden is the multi-millionaire who failed to use his money to build. Instead he decided to use his followers by convincing them to sacrifice their lives to destroy what Muslims, Christians and Jews built.
Bin Laden has lived on the run for years with a multi-million dollar bounty hanging over him. Wherever he is staying day to day, it is likely unhealthy, not pleasurable, and dangerous.
Regardless of how WWIII proceeds, bin Laden is not needed.  Read the story.
Inversion
Iran's president has called for the annihilation of millions of people. He is raging forward building Iran into a fully armed nuclear power. He finances and arms surrogate insurgencies in Iraq, Lebanon, and elsewhere. He is failing to provide Iran with major industry, educate its children in the arts, literature and science so they may become doctors, scientists, teachers, and productive labor. He fails to provide an infrastructure  and purpose for the time when it has lost all customers for its oil.
The president of Iran and President George W. Bush are both scheduled to speak at the UN on September 19, 2006. Speaking at the United Nations, Iran's president has less to fear from physical violence and angry crowds than does President Bush.
President Bush should deliver a very brief speech identifying...  Read the story.
Is Not
Tragic. Certainly. Not the first, not the worst, not the last tragedy in human events.
 Nor will this be the last act of war perpetrated upon civilized people by ruthless losers who have no hope, skills, or optimism.
Many Americans continue to whine, immerse themselves in, and profit from the emotionalized, tragic aspect of the official opening of World War III.  Read the story.
Perspective
More people were murdered in California during 2005 than all US military personnel killed in the three-year-long Iraqi War.

Perspective:  Pain & Price
Some people remember when 5,000, 6,000, 7,000 Americans died just to gain a foothold on some crappy little South Pacific island. And remember that the island was abandoned to continue progressing to end the Japanese terror.
Some retired military generals who now "have theirs" and live safely in obscurity see opportunity to use hindsight and the media.  Read the story.
Project Work
Some politicians, media pundits, & ordinary people want the war in Iraq to end instantly. They want to force it to end by withdrawing all US troops from Iraq immediately. These people fail to see that insurgents and neighboring nations will overrun Iraq.
Withdrawal would instantly squander all progress and sacrifices to this point and diminish US global status.
Their approach to solving the problem of WWIII identifies these people's inability to conceptualize & comprehend the operation of a project. They fail to have experienced the planning, implementation, and completion of tasks that form successful project completion. The war in Iraq is a project.
Additionally, the concept of teamwork is nonexistent in the minds of those incapable of conceptually perceiving the project concept.
When these people are allotted vacation time, do they plan and implement logistical and operational tasks? Of course. Planning and completing projects involves basic concepts. But they do require thought... and elimination of political and personal prejudices that are inconsistent with success.
Undermining Us
A portion of Americans are not pleased with President Bush's performance. Some are pleased on specific issues and displeased on other issues. This is consistent with how an educated body politic rationally reacts to its leadership.
Criticism that goes severely beyond criticism only undermines the US -- all of us.  Read the story.
How's It Going?
Over five (7) years. Ridiculous. Way too long. Taking so much time indicates certain failure. Obviously things are going all wrong. It was a mistake to try.
We must scrap the plan and try something else... or we will be in big trouble. So many years just to get the initial document written and ratified.  Read the story.
Just Cannot Get It Together
Three years after being liberated with very little effort on their part from one of the 20th century's despicable dictators, Iraq is squandering time and failing to proceed along a path toward greatness.
The Iraqi people must now stand up for the rights and liberty provided by the US-led coalition.  Read the story.
Hindsight
The Iraqi War. Going well or not going well? It is nearly impossible for military experts to assess accurately. That is because war is the ultimate confusion. Most people cannot even pronounce "Iraq" correctly.  Read the story.
For those who have fought for it, freedom has a taste the protected will never know.
Liberated
Saddam Hussein is on trial for a small fraction of the despicable indecencies he inflicted upon the world and the Iraqi people. Throughout his trial he has used various tactics to delay, disrupt, and distract. Now he has gone on a hunger strike.
It is not that he wants to feel some small portion of the pain he inflicted upon millions of Iraqis, Kuwaitis, Iranians and others. He is being disruptive.
Saddam is free to go on a hunger strike. He is free to starve himself to death because he, along with 26 million Iraqis, was liberated by the US coalition. Iraq is now a free country. Saddam, you may die.
Gosh Darn Productive GDP
War time spending is high, but not relatively. Below are relative costs to the USA during three periods of war. The first war was a hot war to save civilization from fascism. The second war was the Cold War to free civilization from the USSR. The third is the war to protect civilization from terrorism.
Defense Budget of: % of US GDP
World War II, circa 1944 45%
Cold War circa 1960 10%
War Against Terrorism, 2006     3.5%
The US is budgeting hundreds of billions of dollars to prosecute the War Against Terrorism. Because the US economy has grown so large, it takes a smaller portion of it to wage war now than it took using the Great Depression era economy.
On a relative basis terrorists cost less to defeat than did either Hitler or the USSR. Take that, terrorists !
Too Simple
Iran has removed UN-placed security seals that were monitoring nuclear facilities and is resuming its uranium enrichment program. Iran says it is threatened by the West.
If Iran used its oil and pistachio revenues to build its people's literacy levels, economy, and infrastructure, it might become a global powerhouse. It could then be as powerful as any Western nation. So why would Iran insist upon building nuclear weapons and resist more productive efforts?
Be Nice
Do not do unto others as they have done unto you and sworn to do again. Instead, be passive, weak, scared, timid, apprehensive, fearful, afraid, and, yes, be terrified. You are civilized. Disregard the fact that uncivilized fanatics have sworn to kill you and destroy your way of life.
We hear cries chastising the United States of America. Whiners believe media reports alleging the USA uses methods to extract plans of future terrorist activities from terrorists strongly suspected of knowing about future attacks against the USA and its allies.  Read the story.
It's So Hard To Win
...But So Easy For Some People To Quit
Saigon, 1975 -- Almost 15 years after JFK brought the US into the conflict in Vietnam, the US cut and ran.
South Vietnamese allies streamed up the side of the US embassy hoping to be evacuated with the last Americans, lest they get murdered.  Read the story.
The Win, Our Place, & The Show
There is a portion of the US populace that fails to perceive the outstanding progress achieved in Iraq. These people fail to comprehend that casualties are minimal by all previous war standards.
Most wars of the 20th century cost more lives per day and per mile of progress than the Iraqi War has. Slanted and selective media reporting confuses and distorts public perceptions by using negative reporting and emphasizing casualties.
US military volunteers know -- and truly appreciate -- all that they are fighting for. Terrified media pundits and everyday people may fail to and can only call for retreat. There is nowhere to hide.  Read the story.
Masterminds Not
Four years after 9/11, decades since terrorists began terrorizing at the 1972 Olympics, hijacking airplanes and destroying buildings, it should be obvious to anyone not in the media. There are no masterminds in terrorist camps postulating, planning, positioning resources.
Terrorists use the oldest tactic in the history of warfare. Suicide is also one of the least efficient tactical methods. Terrorists lose their most ardent fighters while primarily killing innocent civilians whose support they purport to be fighting for.
You could accomplish what by when?
Saddam Hussein was key in the 1968 Iraqi coup and later grabbed power from his frail uncle, the ruler, to become president of Iraq in 1979. He promoted himself to despotic dictator and ruled ruthlessly for decades using all means of terror, murder, indoctrination, and suppression of education.
It took centuries to build the United States. The United States possessed substantive leadership, virtually unlimited natural resources, and hard-driven people. Iraq is not a contemporary version of the United States in 1776.  Read the story.
Thank You?
Has anyone heard the words, "Thank you, American coalition soldiers, both alive and dead," or "Thank you, President Bush?" Even one "thank you" from the Middle East would be melodious in this world where everyone believes he is entitled to so much.
Confirmation Of Fact
Grapevine, Texas, August 3, 2005 -- President Bush publicly confirmed his original assessment of conditions following September 11, 2001.
Media coverage and political discussions have included a debate about what to call the conflict with Islamic extremists. President Bush said, "Make no mistake about it, we are at war." In his speech in Texas, Mr. Bush used the phrase "war on terror" at least five times.
In this address to the American Legislative Exchange Council, a group of state legislators, he said, "We're at war with an enemy that attacked us on September the 11th, 2001... We're at war against an enemy that, since that day, has continued to kill."
President Bush continued, "Make no mistake about it, this is a war against people who profess an ideology, and they use terror as a means to achieve their objectives."

A Riddle:  Unseen
A Trojan horse is drawing into position. This Trojan horse is less massive than its contents.

If correctly utilized, it will buy civilization an extra decade.
By The Way...
If there had been no Pearl Harbor, there would have been no Hiroshima.

That was a different era. The Great Depression was about economics, not mass self-inflicted and self-involved emotionalism.

Americans had self-respect. They understood the concept of self-defense in the name of survival.
Much Longer?
How?
How Much Longer?
Some Westerners feel that Western civilization can simply exit Iraq before civilized Iraqis have built Iraq. These believers feel that when  left on their own, the schoolyard bully will simply stop killing & get civilized and productive.
Until then, some peace-loving Westerners wage intra-cultural and political war against their countrymen and fellow Westerners with unyielding sadistic violence.
These so-called peace-loving Westerners are arrogant. They bury their heads in domestic sand. They ignore promises made by fanatical Islamic leaders who for years every day proclaim that they will overtake and destroy the West. Those fanatical Islamic leaders teach followers that all Christian, Jew, Buddhist, Shinto, and other non-Muslim humans are inferior. They proclaim that they are entitled to -- and will -- kill those infidels.
How much longer? Just about when the West surrenders.
Shortly after the United States demonstrates its Vietnam-style cut-and-run weakness in the Middle East, fanatics will claim victory. Then, the fanatic Islamists who have little productive work, nothing earthly to lose, and desire to go to heaven, will know they are winning the struggle.
And then they will know they should continue to behead, berate, blowup, shout, scream and kill, and eventually they will defeat the West. Their flags will -- as they shout it -- "fly over America's White House and Britain's Parliament".
The American quitters who demand pullout, will see that they are left holding little of value at home... if they are allowed to remain alive.
Fact:  The war in Iraq is simply one war front in the global war that is accurately identified as World War III. Fighting in Iraq is a relatively small portion of WWIII. WWIII will not end if the US exits Iraq.
Spending Your Money
Citgo is a Houston-based subsidiary of Venezuela's state-owned oil company. Venezuela is controlled by a demagogic, anti-American, ranting dictator named Hugo Chavez. Chavez has entertained Cindy Sheehan.
Chavez is cultivating friendly relations with the president of Iran. He maintains close relations with Fidel Castro and any other anti-American nation. Chavez called President George W. Bush the devil and an alcoholic. The US government has declared Chavez a destabilizing force. He has threatened to use Venezuela's oil as a weapon against the free world.
There are several different brands of gasoline readily available across the good old US of A that are US and/or British owned. Other oil companies are owned by US allies.

Quick. Wrong. You Are Dead.
Soldiers & military forces are being investigated...
...in re-enactments of skirmishes and attacks that lasted seconds & left civilian-appearing people injured and dead.
Imagine how terrified your family upbringing would make you feel. You are well-trained. You are fighting insurgents who have no rules of engagement, do not abide by laws of decency, are without uniforms, may appear to be civilians, and really do not object to dying. The only thing many insurgents want to do more than to die is to kill you.
Pause. You are civilized. You represent the military of a Western nation. You do not want to disgrace your military. You do not want to kill innocent civilians. Consider your reactions. Decide to do the right thing. Evaluate. React. Too slow. You just got killed.

Tax Cuts & Wars
Few events boost an economy as effectively as war. Just ask FDR. FDR reaped the credit for having ended the Great Depression. Actually World War II ended the Great Depression.
Few people understand that when an economy goes to war it produces guns, ships, airplanes, assorted war materiel and economic and employment growth.  Read the story.

Reports continue that the US is holding combatants, enemy fighters captured on battlefields while attempting to kill US and allied soldiers and supposed civilian terrorist suspects captured before committing the acts they were known to be planning.
These often unsubstantiated allegations ignite, subside, and then are followed by new or reignited reports regarding the same criminal suspects.
European nations, including France and Germany require constant reassurance that the US acts lawfully in the war against terrorism. Reports add comforting fuel to our enemies sitting in caves watching Al-Jazeera, BBC and CNN TV.  Read the story.
A Snap. No.
World War II was not a snap. But it was a struggle clearly and sharply delineated. There was bad and there was good. It was easy for most people and nations to select a side, join in, and fight. Hard fought. Hard won. Civilized people must realize that the world is the worst kind of school yard.  Read the story.

Many people legitimately debate whether or not they made a mistake when they selected their spouses, when they purchased a stock, in their choice of cars, or that they ordered the wrong wine for their entrees.

Limit To Maximize
%
Causalities need to be calculated. Inevitably in war, lost and damaged human life is a cost in the purchase of peace.
Battles and wars should be fought to minimize casualties. However, using troops sparingly and pulling troops back before a battlefield is secured actually increases the percentages of casualties.
Using a measured degree of force greater than the minimum will add assurance of a win. It also will often decrease casualties on a percentage basis and on an absolute basis.
Winning a high percentage of battles leads to a war that is won in less time with fewer casualties for the victors.
Boo !
Remember -- Spain, home to macho bull fighters, completed its early pullout of the US-led coalition effort to defeat terrorism. The macho Spanish completed their pullout before the work was completed and just two months after they were scared into changing leadership in democratic elections.
The Spanish people reacted exactly in opposition to their own best self-interest after the Madrid train bombings.
The Spanish run faster backward than forward. Fortunately for them the US-led coalition will continue to fight, sacrifice, and keep the world safe.
Our Choice
Lose Consequences of war are black and white. One side wins. One side loses.
Wars must be fought tactically and strategically in ways that are justified by the outcome that a side wants. In the War Against Terrorism, our enemy wants -- is determined -- to win. It is fighting to win.
The US-led coalition -- Western Civilization -- must also fight to win. If it fails to fight to win, it will lose... and it will be a long struggle.
The US-led coalition should direct its forces to win. It should not pull back from the brink of military successes in Iraqi towns, Middle East enclaves, Asian terrorist cells, or defending our homeland just to send in the diplomats. The forces of evil that have planned our demise do not follow polite rules and policies.
Secretary of State Colin Powell has moved on. Unfortunately his policy of Polite Weakness remains. Our enemy has turned the world into a battlefield. There is no room on the battlefield for statesmanship, politics, or weakness. Those have already failed -- that is why we are on the battlefield.
Historic
This form depicts the choice Iraqis had for 33 years under Saddam Hussein's despotic regime.
On December 15, 2005, the Iraqi people grabbed the opportunity to vote in Iraq's first constitutional and free election. There were only sporadic insurgent attacks. Voters turned out in large numbers. Disaffected Sunni Arabs appeared determined to win a bigger say in government and also voted in relatively high numbers. The polls were generally peaceful.
Voter turnout was approximately 11 million -- about 70% of the registered voters.
Large voter turnout and the generally peaceful election indicate that the US approach spearheaded resolutely by President Bush is paving the way toward a stable Iraqi government and US withdrawal.  Read the story.
Addicted?
Yes ! But not to oil. Americans are addicted to progress, productivity, peace, and high quality lifestyles.
Currently oil is the main source of energy.
Within a few decades some smart American scientists will invent and perfect new sources of energy. That will obsolete oil.
Then oil will be no more than a messy, greasy, dirty, oozing pollutant that the civilized world will allow to remain under the sandy feet of the still uncivilized.
Mission Accomplished
The city council of Budapest, Hungary, approved placing a monument to former President Reagan in the capital's main park.
This is the first time a former Soviet-bloc's elected government voted to erect a monument in honor of President Reagan commemorating his efforts to end the Cold War and release Eastern Europe from Communist oppression.
Hungary's largest national newspaper and formerly the Communist Party's mouthpiece, Népszabadság, reported that support for the monument crossed all party lines -- a rarity in Hungarian politics.

Certain Uncertainties Exist
The uncertainties of war make all else in life appear rock solid. Uncertainties do not exist in predicting which force will win the War Against Terrorism or most battles on any specific terrorism front. Uncertainties do exist in how long it will take and how much human life will be needed to accomplish all that will be accomplished.
You won't have to do it. The Marines are.
The Marine corporal videotaped in a Fallujah mosque in November, 2004 shooting an apparently injured and unarmed Iraqi during a fire fight, will not face a court-martial.
Marine Corps Major General Richard F. Natonski, commanding general of the 1st Marine Division said that a review of the evidence and enhanced review of the videotape showed the Marine's actions were "consistent with the established rules of engagement and the law of armed conflict."
In preparation for the November 8 assault on the rebel-infested Fallujah, Marine commanders explained the rules of engagement to infantrymen. Those rules allow the use of deadly force against men of military age deemed to hold hostile intent, even if the enemy didn't fire on the Marines first.
It is called war... and how encouraging that as the Marines are defending the free world they are also allowed to defend themselves... politely of course.

Lesson
It has been 60 years since the World War II Allies led by the US of A dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima: August 6, 1945. It abruptly ended the war & saved an estimated 1 to 2 million lives.
Each year Hiroshima marks the anniversary with prayers and water for the dead. There is a call by the city's mayor for nuclear powers everywhere to abandon their arsenals and stop "jeopardizing human survival." Flocks of doves are released. Wreaths and ladles of water symbolizing suffering are offered in a park at an arch-shaped stone monument.
Peace activists hold a die-in commemorating the bombing that turned life to death for more than 140,000 Japanese and changed the potentials of war.
Each year the question is raised: What is the lesson? Is the lesson don't execute sneak attacks such as the one at Pearl Harbor on 12/7/41... at least not against the United States of America?
No. The lesson that is promoted is to turn yourself into a victim of a tragedy.
So, again today the United States must lead civilization in retaliation against another overly empowered hateful group, the terrorist fanatics. Like the Japanese they use suicide to kill. Again, like the Japanese, they will be taught a lesson. And again, someday after they have been taught, another bunch of fanatics will become overly empowered and pull off another sneak attack in a futile attempt to elevate themselves above more worthy achievers. And in its spare time civilization, led by the worthy achievers, will continue to make progress and live well.
1, 2, 3
1.) 12/7/1941 -- The Japanese attack upon Pearl Harbor was audacious. 2.) 9/11/2001 -- The fanatic Muslim extremist attack was insane. 3.) 6/21/2005 -- China's attack is preemptory.
China used the most efficient and effective weaponry devised: The Business Takeover. This is global warfare on a scale never before imagined. It puts the German takeover of Britain's Rolls-Royce in the appropriate psychological perspective. Potential results of this war are momentous for all of the free world, including chaotic EU nations in-fighting and working to weaken the EU concept. China is following one of its master strategists, Sun Tzu, who taught that it is best to strike your strongest adversary when his allies are fighting against him and amongst themselves.
American America-haters continue their unrelenting attacks upon every American institution that had been an effective engine in the 250-year development of the world's most successful experiment -- The USA.
Un-united, The United States of America will fall. Self-serving behavior by Americans empowered by their so-called entitlements will fail when matched against Chinese business interests.  Read the story.
Killing The United States of America
During a hearing to discuss extending the Patriot Act, the chairman gaveled it closed and walked off with the gavel. Democrats were left shouting into dead microphones of a raucous House Judiciary Committee hearing. There are two sides -- each accusing the other of irresponsible and undemocratic behavior.
It is everywhere -- in the streets, grocery stores, sporting events, and schools. The lack of civility and disrespect for her institutions. Low class behavior predominates with a rude, violent, unpatriotic, disrespect for the United States, all that she stands for, and all that has been built over 250 years.

Katyusha Rockets Fired At US Navy Ships In Port
Katyusha rockets are portable, highly inaccurate & unguided.
Katyusha rockets nearly hit their marks, the US amphibious assault ships USS Ashland and USS Kearsarge docked at Aman, Jordan. This was the most serious strike at the US Navy since the USS Cole was attacked nearly six years ago.
Katyusha and shoulder held munitions are typical of weaponry readily available to those interested in destroying and killing. These munitions are easily transported and smuggled. They empower terrorists for easy implementation of simple plans on their schedules and at locations of their choosing. There is no hiding from these munitions and those who are determined to destroy and kill in any nation, city, or town from any warehouse, shack, taxi cab, or pickup truck.  Read the story.
Promises
Bin Laden's second, Ayman al-Zawahri, has warned of more attacks on civilization. He appeared in a videotape broadcast on the Arab satellite channel al-Jazeera on August 4, 2005.
Al-Zawahri appeared in June, 2004, in a video, stating Muslims should not rely on peaceful protests, but should use violence. He also appeared in a video on February, 2005. The Egyptian-born leader is thought to be Bin Laden's deputy and to have been hiding in rugged border areas of either Pakistan or Afghanistan.
For his statement, al-Zawahri appeared wearing a white tunic with black turban with a posed rifle behind him. He warned nations to leave Muslim lands to avoid further violence. He said, "What you have seen, O Americans, in New York and Washington and the losses you are having in Afghanistan and Iraq, in spite of all the media blackout, are only the losses of the initial clashes. If you continue the same policy of aggression against Muslims, God willing, you will see the horror that will make you forget what you had seen in Vietnam."

Ill Noise
Illinois' US Senator Dick Durbin, speaking on the floor of the United States' Senate, likened American servicemen to Nazis. He said, "When you read some of the graphic descriptions of what has occurred here [at Guantanamo Bay] -- I almost hesitate to put them in the [Congressional] Record, and yet they have to be added to this debate." He called US military Nazis.
Durbin then read into the Congressional Record -- the permanent historical record of the nation's law-making body. That is, the conditions for those individuals who have been captured on battlefields, not in military uniform, not aligned with any sovereign nation, not subject to the Geneva Conventions, while they were attempting to kill Middle Eastern people, coalition forces, and American civilians on American soil.
Within hours al Jazeera was quoting the Illinois senator across the Middle East and Asia. Durbin is up for re-election in 2006.  Read the story.
Go!
The world has benefited greatly since 9/11/2001. Those benefits have been delivered at great cost to the United States of America.
Two despicable modern-day regimes have been eliminated:  Iraq's Saddam Hussein and the Taliban of Afghanistan. Al Qaeda has been suppressed and is losing the War Against Terrorism that it started officially on 9/11.
The weak and deceptive French, deceitful Germans, frustrated Canadians, angry Italians, and others who see no problem with attacks made upon the US will each continue to perpetrate their messages of hate. They claim to hate President Bush, America, capitalism, and McDonalds. They may be able to do without another cheeseburger, but as terrorism and ignorance creep into their homelands they may begin to realize they cannot do without the US. They may start to appreciate President Bush's fortitude and perseverance and American capitalism and power. It is these forces that stave off evil from Europe and other civilized regions.
The United States led by President Bush is the force that brought down the 21st century's wall: Middle East despotism. Go America! Go!  Read the story.

Battle Order Number One

1. The ENTERPRISE is now operating under war conditions.
2. At any time, day or night, we must be ready for instant action.
3. Hostile submarines may be encountered.
4. The importance of every officer and man being specially alert and vigilant while on watch at his battle station must be fully realized by all hands.
5. The failure of one man to carry out his assigned task promptly, particularly the lookouts, those manning the batteries, and all those on watch on deck, might result in great loss of life and even loss of the ship.
6. The Captain is confident all hands will prove equal to any emergency that may develop.
7. It is part of the tradition of our Navy that, when put to the test, all hands keep cool, keep their heads, and FIGHT.

Dirty bomb threat: One of 13 Chinese nationals allegedly involved in a terror attack is in custody. The FBI reports that Mei Xia Dong is being interrogated about involvement in a possible terrorist plot aimed at Boston.
A dirty bomb is not a nuclear bomb as envisioned and feared during the Cold War years. Today's dirty nuclear bombs are radiological dispersion devices; they are relatively easy to build since they consist of any of several conventional explosive materials packed with several forms and types of radioactive materials. When a dirty bomb is exploded, it can disperse radioactive material widely. Dispersion increases as breezes and winds carry radioactive dust farther from ground zero. A dose of energy in the form of radiation, such as X-rays emitted by radioactive dust, can induce cancer.  Read the story.
Land Of Opportunity
Israel has forcibly removed approximately 8,500 Israeli settlers from the Gaza strip. These Israeli settlers moved into Gaza over the years since the area was won by Israel after it suffered a sneak attack in 1967. Israel won that war in seven days.
Israel has been giving land back to those who attacked her and lost in the fight. Relinquishment of Gaza is the latest attempt to give land to get peace.
Gaza is populated by Palestinians. They have a per capita annual income of $600.
Israelis have a per capita annual income of $17,500.
Imagine if the Palestinians stopped terrorism and expended those energies instead to building their nation. They have the same natural resources and climate as Israel. In addition they have Arab nations throughout the region who would certainly assist them in nation building.
Palestinians have an opportunity to build an economic miracle. The Israelis built one of the most prosperous economies since the founding of their nation in 1948.

Environmental concerns and hunger in Africa, two topics that had been top on the G8 agenda, were put into perspective. Fighting terrorism and survival of the civilized world was given priority.  Read the story.
Character
25 million Iraqis have been liberated, schools and businesses opened, mass murdering has been ended, Saddam Hussein is in prison and his regime is defunct. Iraq has been given a grand opportunity to build itself into a nation. Its people can get educated, live free, be productive, and join civilization.
It has cost the American people many lives. The United States has again been tested and proven its unity and viability.
The American soldiers lost in the cause of peace and liberty cannot be replaced. All Iraqis should affirm their respect and reverence for these soldiers.
It has cost the United States billions of dollars to liberate 25 million Iraqis. Iraq is sitting on one of the world's largest proven oil reserves --- an asset worth trillions of dollars. The Iraqi people should immediately start paying their debt to the United States by shipping oil as direct remuneration for their liberation.
Quiet Blitzkrieg
Wiser, chastened, but again plotting, Germany is on the move again. In 1939, to accomplish his primary objective, Hitler temporarily allied with Russia. Today Schröder & Fischer are allying with India and an unnamed African country to achieve their primary objective.
< Brandenburg Gate
Today's blitzkrieg is orchestrated by politicians who learned from past German mistakes. Today's German politicians have no tanks, guns, or bombs. They have a long-term takeover strategy.
Today's campaign fits in with Germany's long-range objective of accomplishing what it terms a "normalization" of German foreign policy.  Read the story.
Fortitude & Integrity
Prime Minister John Howard has said that Australia will send 450 more troops to Iraq.
The prime minister said the new soldiers will provide security for Japanese engineers working in southern Iraq and support efforts to rebuild Iraq.
Australia has around 950 troops stationed in and around Iraq. Prime Minister Howard has been a firm ally of the US in its fight against global terrorism. He said he knew the surprise announcement would "be unpopular with many" Australians. Australian soldiers will help fill the gap left when the Netherlands withdraws 1,400 soldiers from southern Iraq. Their government decided against renewing its commitment to carrying its share of the load in the War Against Terrorism.
Only Reagan's America
Ronald Reagan was a leader. He accomplished much and improved the world because he had confidence in himself, knew he was right, held true to his principles, and had a winning persona that put people at ease so they could consider his positions. People wanted to share in the future Reagan portrayed. Reagan's confidence derived from his belief that Americans were good and decent.
During the 1990s -- and especially since the 2000 presidential election -- the US has evolved into a culture of unthinking hatred.  America's anger breeds infighting which saps and distracts our energies. It prevents us from accomplishing productively through cooperation.
Reagan's America could win the War Against Terrorism. Today's hate and anger-filled America will have great difficulty surviving.
Losers
Unable to accomplish change through political, economic & social processes, they resort to terrorism.  They believe it is better to destroy, kill and damage than to not be heard from.

After the mean, nasty, distorted, uncaring, uninformed, partisan attacks and yelling have effectively fractured, divided, and ripped apart our culture making progress and comfortable living impossible, where will you go to live?

           I hope to remain free in the USA ...   Or,
           I will move to:
                                 

Certain Uncertainties Exist

The uncertainties of war make all else in life appear rock solid.  Uncertainties do not exist in predicting which force will win the War Against Terrorism or most battles on any specific terrorism front.  Uncertainties do exist in how long it will take and what the cost in valuable human life will be to accomplish all that will be accomplished.
Enough.  We're Sorry.  Are You?
Enough apologizing. Some few individuals unrestrained by common decency or their immediate chain of command officers failed to live up to the US standards. They will be eliminated from our ranks and punished. Lessons have been learned and will result in tighter procedures with checks and balances. Of about 170,000 total troops over the year, approximately 100 participated in the abuse. Americans and Brits are honestly remorseful.
In contrast, the Arab world has failed to apologize for acts of terrorism before 9/11, the events of 9/11, and the hundreds of acts of terrorism since 9/11 -- those successful and foiled terrorist acts.  Read the story.

Force of Good
The media, yesterday's allies now in business with terrorists, the weenies afraid to retaliate for 9/11, the anti-Republicans, the MoveOn.org virulent haters, the Boss groupie rock tour, the Michael Moore liars, the less well educated who cannot think, the youth who have not yet learned to think, and the "I just hate Bush because I hate my life and I'm so damned negative" group prodded by George Soros' money joined together to try to defeat President Bush. They huffed and puffed for months and months.
Still President Bush was re-elected. He won the popular vote by approximately 3.5 million. President Bush received an all-time record high number of popular votes.
The civilized world continues to have its safety ensured by a majority of Americans. The United States of America and all people everywhere who believe in liberty, freedom, individualism and peaceful coexistence should celebrate.
Hell
20-year-old Lance Corporal Andrew Alderson from Pelham, North Carolina, says "You get homesick but you have to push it to the back of your mind or you go nuts." He plans to marry when he returns home.
Military leadership is working to combat emotionalism and stress among the 150,000 US troops protecting America and the world by fighting the roots of terrorism.
Loneliness among the troops is a major concern and leadership is working to lift morale by providing good, hot food, family contacts, and everything reasonable for troops serving in hell.
Stress among the troops is a major concern for chaplains holding morale-boosting services and top generals who repeat morale-boosting visits.
Equipment is being designed, improved, manufactured, and supplied to the front lines as fast as our civilian workers back home can do their jobs.
Defense Secretary Rumsfeld visited several Iraqi cities on Christmas Eve. He was candid and made himself available in several town hall settings answering troops' questions and identifying the historical importance of their mission.
Events of 9/11 forced civilized people to fight a war in a part of the world where no rational person raised in Western civilization would choose to go. Troops who volunteered since 9/11 understood their mission could include being sent to hells like Iraq to defend our homeland and save Western civilization. They feel intense stress because they understand they must win.
Our fighting troops are living in hell. Their work includes understanding that they are fighting to preserve civilization and make their home towns safe again. If they fail to win this war, their homeland will not be safe to return to. When they do win and come home they are sure to laugh at things like wind chill warnings. They are bound to return with enlightened perspectives on what real danger is.
Heroes
Has the nature of our heroes changed or have our heroic ideals and the requirements for our heroes changed? Both have changed.

Audie Murphy, hero of a different culture.
Audie Murphy -- many ask who was Audie Murphy? It doesn't matter that he is the most decorated W.W.II soldier. The son of poor Texas sharecroppers, he rose to national fame as the most decorated U.S. combat soldier of World War II and was responsible for saving lives of his comrades, civilians and contributed as much as any soldier may be expected toward the winning of a major war.
Today's heroes are not current versions of Audie Murphy. Our requirements for heroes is not that they have fought well in war. War is not accepted as a field from which to grow heroes. Instead, our heroes pop up from popular media performances, quasi-documented reports, or when a person survives an event that the media labels a tragedy.
Heroes serve us. They provide models of ideals that we teach our young to strive for and that, as we age, we measure ourselves against.
Without heroes a culture will deteriorate. It lacks high goals and standards that are as tangible as Audie Murphy remains for many Americans.
When unworthy people are inserted into our lives as genuine heroes our culture rots a little more from within, spins off on tangents of despair for the finest, and selects leaders from a list of the least worthy.
Whether today's heroes are in the Audie Murphy tradition is irrelevant. What matters is that we follow only those who we judge as true heroes using Audie Murphy's standards.
It's Not Fair That People Are Different
Today Iraq is selling more oil than before liberation. Today more electricity is available for more Iraqis than before liberation. Today Iraqis have more freedoms and civil liberties than before liberation. Today there are more opportunities for more Iraqis to contract, subcontract and be employed than before liberation.
After World War II, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium and several other European nations received US aid, accepted opportunities with responsibilities, built successful economies, and rebuilt their infrastructures and societies.
Why haven't the Iraqi people accepted responsibilities and opportunities and prepared themselves for the sovereignty they claim to deserve?
Raison d'etre
No limit to their methods. Today's enemy of civilization uses technology to disseminate pictures and information about its primitive activities. It posted a video showing the beheading of an American civilian worker in Iraq. The video showed five men wearing headscarves and black ski masks standing over a bound prisoner. The execution was possibly done by a hooded Abu Musab al-Zarqawi --- a bin Laden associate with ties to terrorist groups including Ansar al Islam in Iraq and Egyptian Islamic Jihad --- or someone acting on his order.  Purportedly the reason was revenge for the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by American soldiers.
This enemy claims religious ideals and purposes. In equating beheading with prisoner abuse this enemy has again demonstrated its inability to be rational.  Today's enemy is composed of frustrated, unaccomplished men who have no desire to perform work daily on productive jobs. Apparently they become bored abusing and bullying women and the masses of their own societies. Over recent decades they discovered they can derive perverse empowering thrills by threatening the civilized world with chaos via terrorism. This enemy is primitive in its methods and its desire for death but accedes to use technology to announce and demonstrate its most primitive actions.  It is confused and lacks direction.
What is these people's raison d'etre? Apparently to die. God speed to all of them.
Apologies
JFK apologized and took responsibility for the Bay of Pigs fiasco years before we knew of his pervasive involvement. And apologize he should have. He approved the plan and specific details before the invasion, ordered invasion of a sovereign nation, and plotted to overthrow its leader. ...And when the invasion was in the midst of failing and hundreds of Cuban and American soldiers were dying, being captured, and making frantic calls for air support and reinforcements, JFK pulled the plug.  JFK denied his men additional support. That act by JFK insured the death and capture of hundreds of soldiers. That act by JFK ensured that the Bay of Pigs would stand out as a major US military fiasco. JFK's failure to provide back up support for the men he ordered to invade Cuba cost their lives and American prestige.  Read the story.

You Do It
A US Marine was under investigation for killing a wounded Iraqi during the offensive in Fallujah. A mosque was being used by enemy forces to attack US and Iraqi soldiers.
US soldiers stormed the mosque, killed 10 militants, wounded five, and continued on with their mission. The next day a different group of Marines entered the mosque not knowing the circumstances and found the enemy.
US military command initiated an inquiry. Marine commander Lieutenant General John Sattler said his men follow the laws of conflict and hold to high standards of accountability. He said, "The facts of this case will be thoroughly pursued to make an informed decision and to protect the rights of all persons involved."
These days in the US, police officers working the nation's streets have been restrained from using force until it may be too late for them to defend themselves. Each year some police officers die or are injured because they waited until the street criminal gained the upper hand with force.
Anyone who second guesses this Marine's reaction in this life-threatening situation should go to Iraq, fight to liberate 25 million Iraqis, fight fanatic Muslims who prefer death and killing Americans. Ask yourself, in this situation, with seconds to decide, would you: 1.) Potentially err on the safe side or, 2.) Take a chance with ruthless, injured enemy fighters who don't play by the rules, letting them possibly detonate an explosive device that kills themselves and you? Note that just the day before this incident, a US soldier was killed by a grenade rigged to a dead enemy's body.
Fortunately for all of us, the Marine involved in this situation was exonerated by a formal investigation.
Calling All Civilized People:  Is This The Way You Want To Live?
Homeland Security Secretary Ridge reported security levels for the Democratic convention may surpass that of the Salt Lake City Olympics in cost and complications involved in
securing the densely populated area. He said, "Our goal is to deter any potential attack with multiple layers of security."
US Homeland Security said counterterrorism authorities continue to get "credible information" indicating al-Qaeda is interested in attacking the US to disrupt democracy in action." He said the department has no specific information about time, place or type of attack. Later while talking with reporters, Ridge said he can't be specific about what type of attack may be coming. But, "The toughest attack to defend against is suicide bombers" wearing a vest or driving a truck.
Terrorism must be stopped in its homelands before it crawls and sprawls across our nation threatening each of us everyday on every bus, highway and office building.
Poised To Shift
Every evil force on Earth is watching. Global hot spots are now being adjusted based upon US election results.
Our enemies are less empowered and feel less free to erupt and pounce since the American electorate affirmed that President Bush is doing what the majority of Americans want done. The forces of evil see that the USA will continue to defend democracy and destroy terrorism.
Prime hot spots not in everyday headlines and accepted as merely ongoing conflicts -- but nevertheless dangerous -- include:
-- Sino / Taiwanese relations
-- Israel's position & strength within the middle east
-- North / South Korean relations
-- Iran: Nuclear projects & Plans for Iraq
An ongoing set of problems includes continued anti-US actions in the UN.
Service
A Military Times poll shows that 63% of US active-duty troops approve of the way President Bush is handling the war; 60% continue to be convinced the war is worth fighting.
Support is even greater among the troops who have served longest in combat zones. 2 out of 3 combat veterans say the war is worth fighting. The troops are not naive about how long they will be fighting. Nearly half expect to be in Iraq more than five years; 87% state they are satisfied with their jobs.
Only 25% say they would leave the military if given the chance. Compared to last year's survey, the rate of those supporting the war and their job satisfaction is unchanged.
One year ago, 77% thought the military was stretched too thin to be effective. This year 66% feel that way. These statistics are reported in annual Military Times Poll.

It Does Work
June, 2004:  The United States has restored direct diplomatic ties with Libya after a 24-year break.
Libya's long-time leader, Colonel Moammar Gadhafi, admitted his country was developing weapons of mass destruction and stated that it will dismantle its secret projects.
President Bush announced Libya agreed to end development of  unconventional weapons, join treaties banning nuclear and chemical weapons, and immediately allow international inspectors in to verify its commitment. Negotiations were initiated by Gadhafi's personal envoys, have proceeded for nine months, and are now being implemented.
President Bush has been criticized and ridiculed by domestic critics and self-proclaimed know-it-alls operating in other nations for personal or short-sighted reasons. He held firm and forged the US-led global coalition to shut down terrorism. Bush's coalition of the willing has assisted other nations' anti-terrorism forces for over two years around the world including Afghanistan, Indonesia, Iraq and others. Gadhafi's surrender was achieved without a shot being fired or a US soldier's life being sacrificed.
President Bush's approach has worked and it will continue to work. Bullies can be scared into submission.
A Question

A question for the partisan 9/11 commissioners, the 9/11 victims' family members -- who now consider themselves experts on a myriad of complex issues -- & all partisans everywhere who are certain they could have predicted & prevented 9/11's events. Today you know more about terrorism, its antagonists, its targets, & its methods than did the then 7-month old Bush administration that was provided grudging, inadequate transition information by the previous administration. Since you are so smart now, please share with us the terrorists' identities, methods, & where & when specifics concerning the next attack.
           The next attack will be:

Perspective
Wars are fought on various fronts --- geo-political areas. In World War II there were several fronts including the Russian, French, Italian, Indonesian, Philippine fronts and several more around the world. The War Against Terrorism includes the Afghanistan front, Indonesian front, the WTC New York City front, and several more around the world. Hussein's Iraq was the next front in a long-term strategy that will win the War Against Terrorism. One of the US government's constitutional responsibilities is to ensure that the United States, a war front as demonstrated in New York City, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon on 9/11, is not the scene of more attacks.
       War Information
Today's war started with the attack of September 11, 2001. It is the War Against Terrorism. Hussein's Iraq was a front in the War Against Terrorism. There are other fronts including Afghanistan and several nations on every inhabited continent. Other fronts will flair into prominence as the War Against Terrorism proceeds.
  War Information
At this point in WWII the Japanese had won the entire Pacific front, were occupying US territory, the Aleutian Islands --- and it took over 1,000 casualties to remove them.   The Nazi war machine was only starting to be slowed in its takeover of Europe. The Italian portion of the Axis continued its support of Nazi aggressions.

The War Against Terrorism is proceeding well as evaluated by reasonable people having historical perspectives and understanding the magnitude to the fanatic and extremist forces and their methods.
  War Information
Many reporters and journalists fail to comprehend and report with concise clarity. They fail to provide facts with perspective. The practice of journalism has devolved into speculation and prognostication with contentious overtones and embedded causes. WarInformation.com and its affiliated sites provide the concise substance needed to understand the global War Against Terrorism and its ramifications.
  War Information
Objective: Win the War Against Terrorism thus preventing more 9/11-type attacks. Strategy: Fight the war on the terrorist's homelands until terrorism is defeated.
  War Information
Do you want to live everyday in fear of an attack upon your nation, your workplace, your Main Street? Or do you want to win the War Against Terrorism... and move on continuing to make progress?
  War Information
Today's War Against Terrorism is different from recent conflicts. While fighting W.W.II, civilians and military personnel understood that there were a few discrete enemy nations led by a relatively few who wanted to destroy us and change our life styles. It was reasonable to expect that those leaders could be defeated. Their defeat would be followed by collapse of their political structures and their nations' reversion back to civilized behavior. There was always a rational comprehension that Germany and Japan, for example, could -- and therefore would -- be defeated by the Allies.  On the contrary in the War Against Terrorism most civilized people understand that our enemy consists of hundreds of nodes dispersed around the world in over 100 nations. Operationally our enemies exist in thousands of independent cells dispersed and blended into most aspects of life in over one hundred nations. Even at the highest level in those many sovereign regimes who despise western civilization, our ability to defeat them militarily is nil. Their defeat will require engineered economic erosion followed by cultural change within their populations.

Pathetically for us, due to the structure of our leadership, chain of command and operations, we tend to lose the best, most brave, most highly principled individuals of character... those needed as our future leaders. It is the opposite for our enemy in the War Against Terrorism. Its leadership hides and directs simple attacks from caves, evidences little character strength, and rarely does more than pontificate. Our enemy expends its lowest level, most easily replaced juvenile fighters who are indoctrinated from birth to believe they will reap vast rewards when they die for the cause. Our enemy's ranks of foot soldiers are growing faster than they can be killed and faster than they commit suicide while trying to kill us.

If you are reading this, it is unlikely that the War Against Terrorism will end during your lifetime.
  War Information
During the United States' four year involvement in World War II, 620,000 US citizens died. In today's War Against Terrorism, more than that many civilians could die in a terrorist biological, chemical or nuclear attack.  We are in a state of war.

Who Died & Put You In Charge?

9/11 Commission hearings in NYC
Collecting money & sympathy: An adopted life style.
Friends and families of 9/11 victims have received financial compensation and are wallowing in being victims themselves. They have made becoming a victim a goal for all over-emotionalized, weak-character Americans. Why not? The money pours in, the sympathy is unending, and no one can tell them to pause and put the events of 9/11 and the War Against Terrorism in perspective. This stuff is about the future of western civilization -- not about revenge against civic officials who did reasonable jobs in an unprecedented crisis caused by fanatics willing to die.
How many of you nouveau victims have better lives today than you had three years ago? ...More money, perhaps relieved of that pesky relative, quoted in the media, attending hearings and more? The city of New York may be referred to as a Great City, but a city, a nation, a people are only as great as their performances under duress. These New Yorkers are demonstrating their stuff openly.
So, all you Smartees, since you know so much and have been given superhuman wisdom, please just go right ahead and tell the government how to prevent the next terrorist strike.
Families & friends in attendance
