Global Thermonuclear War

As John F'n Kerry might say, this concept is soooo "20th Century" – our primary concern now should be Global Thermo-Environmental Change ...

Well spoken.

This latest action is positively stupefying in its utter naivete.

Sounds like Merkel’s the only adult head of state in the West.

Great, so when it happens for real Obama will charge into the situation room and says I know how this ends.

I wouldn’t let Obama run a game of Harpoon without being afraid of him attacking his own side. As for comment, I have come to the conclusion that all of the professionals from the 80’s have either left or been pushed aside.

Jerking around while Iran’s centrifuges keep spinning, gas and food prices skyrocket, people by the millions are losing private healthcare, and the culture deteriorates with more infanticide and celebrated perversion.

May the Lord Jesus have mercy on His remnant.

Here is his main National Security Advisor for Europe. A disarmament wonk. Also, notice the timeline, started working for Bill Clinton in the 90’s,after the Cold War was over.

Obama would probably nuke America. As long as he was on vacation somewhere else.

Even better, here is a summary of one of her books. We are so screwed.

Authored by Dr. Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall.
“In this era of American predominance, alliances are more compelling than ever. The United States needs allies to generate capabilities that amplify its power, create a basis of legitimacy for the exercise of its power, avert impulses to counterbalance its power, and steer partners away from strategic apathy or excessive self-reliance.”

Is it Urkel’s smirk that irks Merkel?

Merkel should have shoved a Binky in El Presidente’s mouth and stormed out.

Obama loved it as he declared Martial Law and proclaimed himself President for life (over the entire world).

For example I worked on a Pol-Mil game where the Soviet Boomer Boats had moved into position in the North Atlantic and we knew where they were. The Joint Staff requested release authority to drop some tactical nuc’s in the area to destroy them before they launched. We heard the meeting at the WH was led by the VP but I never knew for sure being too far down the “food-chain”. I do recall we got a rejection back saying we could not preempt the threat.

Let me get this straight, we have a game involving what some would do to a domestic terrorist nuke bomb. WHY? Seems to me there is no reason to consider what anyone else thinks, what they NEED TO KNOW is if it happens and we are certain from whence it came, they are history, totally. NO appeal, no second chance. There will be no recidivism should be our motto.
