just trying to be an optimist

Trying to remain an optimist here also. Primary worry, at this point, is those who are already here in the U.S.A., and those making their way here from both the north and south borders. Down south, anyone, and do mean anyone can be bought. Knowing this sounds less optimistic than I desire to sound; I am trying to remain optimistic, but sometimes it is difficult. Thank you for your post. I enjoyed and smiled at As a group they have yet to master the flush toilet, and pray while they haven't, they aren't mastering something else.

This is a guess (everything I type is a guess). Would think, at this point, the diplomatic diplomacy has reached a fever pitch around the world, and there is only yelling and finger pointing taking place, and nothing is being settled, while all wait for the next shoe to drop or be thrown. Another guess ... the next shoe to drop or be thrown is in the already planned out stages waiting to be implemented. Wishing one could know where that would be. (sigh) ... remember sometimes it is difficult to be optimistic. Looking at late Spring (next year) as a possible point of another major event. This is only a guess.

"Sure, we’d be happy to leave.....after unloading a few metric tons of ordinance......strategically, of course.

Just to lighten the load for the trip home...."

Why, of course. I mean, think of the decrease in fuel usage on that long journey home without all that excess weight, right? Just thinking "green" here....

I’m with y’all on this one.....only with a twist. My contention for years now is that we pull out of these pissant, unwinnable wars and very publicly warn the Muslim world thusly:

One more atrocity against the US or one of our allies, one more act of jihad, etc., and our response will be the following:

We will nuke one of your religious centers, starting with Mecca, totally obliterating it. Medina would be next. Then we’d start on your capitals, beginning with Tehran, followed by Damascus.

You set off a bomb or hijack a plane, we take out a city unblinkingly.

This would not be an idle threat, and it’s undoubtedly one we’d have to make good on at least once. If Russia or China balked at such a threat....screw ‘em. Truth is, I think they’d secretly love it given their own major problems with Islam.

Islamists understand one thing, and one thing only: strength.

I completely agree, time for implementing the plan, you typed.

Makes me wonder if he is getting ready to test his first nuke. In Israel. Israel may have waited too long to stop it,partially because of our incompetent president. Although they can retaliate with same ....

Unload some statregic ordinance to negate Iran, Pakistan, and some other Muslim enemies,
THEN give India a bunch of our warships, including some of our older carriers instead of decommissioning them.
Have INDIA carry the load there.

I am also confused by Obamas move to deny statehood to Palistine

OBama wants to see Israel erased from the map through extended terrorist tactics and attrition rather than to see a Moslem military defeat. Attacks against Israel by stateless terrorists are an accepted fact of life. If a defined state launches such attacks, they are acts of war and will lead to the decisive defeat of the moslem hordes threatening Israel. That's the last thing Barack ibn Hussein al-Obama wants to see.

I guess we’ll just have to see how it plays out. Meanwhile here is some late news on Libya. It seems they new government is actually giving woman a real role in the country’s defense. Over 200 women have graduated military training in Benghazi starting in March, and now the effort is being spread more widely.

Meanwhile, the fight for the southern city of Sabha goes on with it partially occupied by the new govt. forces, and concrete steps taken to enhance possible total success.

They've already been working on mastering Chicago style pay to play:

1999 : (BILL CLINTON NOMINATES HASSAN NEMAZEE FOR POSITION AS US AMBASSADOR TO ARGENTINA, BUT THE NOMINATION IS WITHDRAWN)

That one went south when the Iranians were involved in bombing the Israeli embassy down there in Argentina. Picking an Iranian-American US ambassador at a time like that was going to fly like a lead brick.

But he didn't give up...

Nemazee went on to become an Obama campaign bundler.

But then, that worked out great for Obama but not so good for Nemazee since Nemazee was taking in fraudulently obtained funds from Bank of America while at the same time funnelling money into Obama's campaign coffers. Now Nemazee got arrested for it. Part of it anyway.

But, ...I'm sure Obama has more Iranian bundlers waiting in line ...

This is an interesting character within the democRAT party. Being unfamiliar with this individual, went out and took a look through research.

Born in Washington, D.C. on January 27, 1950. Hassan Nernazee invested in the following sectors: health care, media, oil and gas, insurance, investment banking, asset management, newspapers, real estate development, technology, and communications. Nernazee claims to have created a joint venture for the establishment of a bank with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company, predecessor to JP Morgan & Co. Has been involved in the Kerry presidential election, 2004. Finance chair for Churck Schumer in 2006. Finance Chairman to Hillary Clnton 2007-08. Donated $50,000 to Obama presidential inaugural committee. Numerous Board Associations. In July 2010 he was convicted of multiple counts of bank fraud and wire fraud and was sentenced to 12½ years in prison. All information gleamed from Wikipedia.

There are numerous links for this individual. He has been very busy (criminal) within our government, rubbing shoulders with powerful people and God only knows what else. Thank You for the heads up.
