That explains the irritability.


Do you really believe everything on the news and what we are told are 100% true? DO you know what propaganda is ?

I did a search for "syria, conflict, gas pipeline"


"So what was this unfolding strategy to undermine Syria and Iran all about? According to retired NATO Secretary General Wesley Clark, a memo from the Office of the US Secretary of Defense just a few weeks after 9/11 revealed plans to "attack and destroy the governments in 7 countries in five years", starting with Iraq and moving on to "Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran." In a subsequent interview, Clark argues that this strategy is fundamentally about control of the region's vast oil and gas resources."

I would just like Obama's wars properly labeled but I guess you have to earn that Nobel Peace Prize some how . I haven't had time to keep up with the news, how is the regime change in Libya working out ? I get the feeling that section of the world has really appreciated Obama's humanitarian approach . You can add that to his resume of accomplishments

And who is best globally with propaganda?

And did that entity support propaganda in other countries?

And did that propaganda in the US emanate from a particular party?

Where is that party today?

That's the only reason this administration wants regime change and the only reason we are gun running through Turkey to arm "rebels " . Please don't dash my faith in our dear leader .

It was a combination of the O admin's R2P doctrine and Western Europe's please to prevent a wave of mass immigration into Europe (how that working out?)

Nope - nor do I believe the Academia of the Obama Admin. You can argue that the foreign policy of the R/D presidential admins were somewhat closer in appearance up and in through some of the Clinton years. Partially because the core of the State Departments were professionals and not political hacks. Sure, many senior execs were political favors but they had a better core to lean on. Last 20 years, and particularly under Obama, the departments have been increasingly politicized.
The current admin is SO FAR over their heads it is going to costs us dearly. The Bush incompetents were leagues more qualified than this bleep show.

Now it is time to drink.

At lower levels yes, and surprise surprise, a lot of them are moderate to conservative in the ranks. Pentagon is not the problem nor are the lower to mid tiers of other key departments, it is the political gerrymandering of internal policies. We have branch secretaries that are sacrificing warfighting, training, and competency for social engineering and biofuels.

Time for that beer (Allagash BTW)
