We have been dragged into another Middle East war: U.S. troops arrive in Turkey; rebels battle for airport in Syria

 U.S. troops arrive in Turkey; rebels battle for airport in Syria: The move was made after Syria launched Scud missiles at cities near the Turkish border. In response, the U.S., Germany and the Netherlands have deployed Patriot air defense missiles to the border region to intercept any Syrian ballistic missiles. 

U.S. officials: Syria using more accurate, Iranian-made missiles: The missiles and troops are under the control of NATO, but the missiles are to be operated by U.S. forces. A group of 27 U.S. troops landed in Gaziantep, Turkey, where they will survey the Patriot deployment, Turkish state news agency Anadolu said. "We've made very clear to them that we're going to protect countries in this region," Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said last month. "We have to act to do what we have to do to make sure that we defend ourselves and make sure that Turkey can defend itself." We have now been openly dragged ? into another Middle East war.

Do you think Russia is going to allow a Democracy in Syria? Do you think Russia is going to let themselves be pushed out of their last bastion in the middle east? Do you think Iran is going to allow a western friendly Democracy take root at their door? I am so proud of the Syrian free Army and the citizens fighting for their Independence but really feel for them at the same time because what is happening there is much bigger than thei fight for freedom.

Russia is not going to give up Syria regardless. To do so would be letting the US win and Putin to the demise of the Syrian people is not going to let that happen. Russia's weapons are being used to slaughter the people and they brag about it. Those are the only weapons Russia will allow. French President Nicolas Sarkozy likened Syrian leader Bashar Al-Assad to a "murderer" while Russia said it was arming his regime enabling him to slaughter his people.

The Syrian people are being sacrificed in this the opening volley not just in the middle east but in the world against US hegemony! That is the only reason Putin got himself back into the Russian Presidency. The sole goal is to finish what was started under him and George Bush when he was gathering forces amongst Russia, China, the 35 non aligned nations and anyone else interested in stopping our efforts to rule the world.

Hezbollah and Iran's IRG armed by Russia have taken the lead in slaughtering the Syrian people to keep them and Bashar Al Assad in control. This is just the opening volley in the war against US hegemony. Sorry to say but those Syrian people are being sacrificed in an opening volley for the war for position to see who holds prominence as we try to move through the 21st century.

I remember saying a year ago that the Syrian protesters are the bravest in the world as they know they at the least are facing dedicated Syrian and Iranian Revolutionary Guard killers and now we find out we were right on and then some. I know the protesters vowed not to be deterred stating they will break the Government period but there is no way. The Syrian Government will kill and arrest who they have too. Iran will accept nothing less!

I remember the Syrian opposition saying that they would not stop and would ultimately defeat the Government saying Democratic transition would safeguard Syria from violence. As outsiders looking in we know nothing could be further from the truth. People are being imprisoned and murdered and I can not see that stopping until the Democracy movement is crushed. Supposedly this expected situation is begging for us to get involved but we damn well better not. Unless that is going to war with Iran is the goal.

I remember saying from day one that it would take almost the whole military to defect before they would have a chance and now that we know how involved Russia, Iran and Hezbollah are in the slaughtering that is going on around the country that is beginning to look like the beginning of their fight.

You have to be very concerned about what is happening in Syria especially. Russia, China, and Iran are not going to allow Syria to fall to Democracy. What we saw after the voter fraud in Iran was mild compared to what the IRG will do if this movement spreads to Iran. I really wish Bashar would step down but Iran is the elephant in the room any way you look at it. The total middle east breakdown we have written about numerous times is well under way. We can only hope we keep it from erupting into WW3.

In closing: You know Putin just got himself reelected as President, he did this so he could be at the helm of Russia as he like me knows 100% that world war is our future. He plans on marshaling China who is rapidly building a more formidable military and whoever he can to take on US hegemony.Russia watched helplessly as we had our way in Libya. Putin blames what is happening in Syria on our interference and Libya for training the protesters to fight against Bashar Al-Assad.

Putin is going to do everything possible to keep us from helping the Syrian people and I really feel for them. I do not see this going down the way Libya did and Iran and Russia are going to make sure it does not. I am afraid the Syrian people are going to be sacrificed, sacrificed in what is merely an opening salvo in this the wars for future dominance. I just heard that Russia is gathering forces to go into Iran via Armenia for a quick strike through Georgia. We have a showdown setting up that looks disastrous for the worlds future. It will be a miracle if we can keep this from turning into WW3!

Top Afghan negotiator optimistic over peace prospects: That is peace Afghan style

highlights: Pakistan Frees Former Taliban Officials to Promote Afghan Peace, Top Afghan negotiator optimistic over peace prospects, Afghan officials say that the next phase of transferring security from NATO to Afghan control will begin in two months and aims to cover nearly 90 percent of the country's population, The Afghan government has hit a grim record in its quest to take over the country’s security from coalition forces: more than 1,000 soldiers died in 2012, a roughly 20 percent increase from 2011.

 Pakistan Frees Former Taliban Officials to Promote Afghan Peace: Those freed from detention included Abdul Bari, former governor of southern Helmand province, ex-justice minister Nooruddin Turabi, and Mullah Daud Jan, former governor of Kabul, the foreign office said in a statement last night. U.S. forces ousted the Taliban government led by Mullah Mohammad Omar in 2001. Omar is believed is based in Pakistan. Former deputy leader and top military commander Abdul Ghani Baradar, detained in 2010 in Karachi, was not among those released. 

Afghanistan and Pakistan are pursuing a new peace initiative that would permit members of the Taliban to be removed from the United Nations terrorist list to join negotiations and hold Afghan government posts. The push for talks has become more urgent as the U.S.-led international coalition prepares to pull its combat troops out of Afghanistan by the end of 2014. 

 Top Afghan negotiator optimistic over peace prospects: He predicted the highly lethal Haqqani militant network, the most experienced at guerrilla warfare, would join the peace process if the Afghan Taliban started formal talks. Signs are emerging that the Afghan government is gaining momentum in its drive to persuade the Taliban to lay down their arms before most NATO combat troops pull out by the end of 2014, a timeline that makes many Afghans nervous. 

"I think one consensus was that everybody acknowledged that nobody will win by military (means)," said Stanekzai, who was badly wounded in a 2011 Taliban suicide bombing attack. "Everybody acknowledged that we have to enter into a meaningful negotiation." Pakistan, long accused of supporting Afghan insurgents such as the Taliban, has sent the strongest signals yet that it will deliver on promises of helping the Kabul government and the United States bring stability to its neighbor. Pakistan is seen as critical to the process after three decades of upheaval in Afghanistan.

 Afghans: Next force transition starts in 2 months: Afghan officials say that the next phase of transferring security from NATO to Afghan control will begin in two months and aims to cover nearly 90 percent of the country's population. The transition, which began in early 2011, is slated to give Afghan forces full responsibility for security by the end of 2014 when most NATO troops will have withdrawn.

 Afghan Troop Deaths Rise as Army Expands Its Role: The Afghan government has hit a grim record in its quest to take over the country’s security from coalition forces: more than 1,000 soldiers died in 2012, a roughly 20 percent increase from 2011. 

Though the Afghan Army’s death rates have outstripped those for international forces in recent years, the new figures show the widest margin yet, as more and more Afghan units have taken the field. International forces were reported to have lost about 400 soldiers in 2012, the lowest number since 2008. 

 Bullet-riddled bodies of 9 militants found dumped on road in northwest Pakistan: Pakistani intelligence officials say they have found the bodies of nine militants dumped in the North Waziristan tribal region. The militants' bodies were found one day after 21 tribal police personnel who had been abducted were found dead in another tribal region.The incidents illustrate the conflicts among warring factions and militants that plague Pakistan. 

Mullah Omar was invited to join the upcoming election in 2014 and he did not respond. He did not have to he knows when we are gone so is corrupt Karzai. I remember during the election with Abdullah and Karzai's victory was found to be grossly corrupt the people just shrugged and said one corrupt Government is the same as the next.

That said, the people would be wise to remember the cutting off of heads and hands that is routine for the Taliban and how stifling it is under their rule. As a whole they should remember the thousands of them the Taliban have purposely killed. They should form Lashkar's (civilian defense against the Taliban) and eliminate the Taliban or life as they want it is over.

Afghans fear what will happen when troops leave: Among Afghans around the country interviewed by The Associated Press, the worry is pervasive. Many are deeply skeptical that Afghan police and security forces, which the U.S.-led coalition has spent years trying to build, will be able to fight insurgents and militants without American and NATO fighting alongside. Worse-case scenarios that some fear:

 The Afghan forces could splinter along ethnic line and prompt civil war, the nation could plunge into a deep recession, or the Kabul government — plagued with corruption and still fragile despite efforts to establish its authority — would remain too weak to hold off a Taliban takeover. Just a 45-minute drive south of Kabul, residents of Wardak province directly feel the tenuousness. The province is a battleground for Afghan and coalition forces trying to squash hotbeds of the Taliban. Residents quickly warn visitors that it’s dangerous just to go past a checkpoint less a kilometer (half-mile) outside the provincial capital, Maidan Shahr.

In Afghanistan, Businesses Plan Their Own Exits: America may be struggling to come up with a viable exit plan for Afghanistan, but Abdul Wasay Manani is sure of his. This month, Mr. Manani, 38, flew to India for 14 days to scout out a new business, and a new home, ready to leave Afghanistan and everything he worked to build here, just in case things fall apart when most Americans and other foreign troops leave in 2014. “If the Taliban come like last time, ordering people around with whips, I can’t stay here,” he said. “I have to leave this country to keep my family safe.”

 Many Afghans share his concern. In this environment, troubling indicators are not hard to find. More than 30,400 Afghans applied for asylum in industrialized nations in 2011, the highest level in 10 years and four times the number seeking asylum in 2005. The only Western bank operating here said on Wednesday that it would be leaving. Piles of cash equaling about a quarter of Afghanistan’s annual economic output were physically carried out of Afghanistan last year.


I just do not get it. If those people know how bad their life is going to be under the Taliban then why do they not fight to defeat them? *Vietnam all over again regardless of what they say. They are now offering the Taliban to join in the Government.

I really do not care what they do. Our soldiers did their job. We should get them out now with heads held high for a job well done. They have performed magnificently.The Taliban are going to take over again regardless and the people know it that is why everyone who can is making preparations to get out now.

Japan to Carefully Consider Stationing Officials on Disputed Islands, conflict immenent

 Japan to Carefully Consider Stationing Officials on Disputed Islands: While such a move would further damage relations between Japan and China, Jiji reported Kishida as saying any decision would be done in a "careful and realistic manner, and from the perspective of national interest." Jiji also reported that Japan had asked the United Nations not to consider China's claim that the islands belong to Beijing because of China's extended continental shelf. 

Korea has maintained a presence on the islets since 1952 when its coast guard was dispatched to the rocks nearly equidistant from the Korean peninsula and the main Japanese island of Honshu. Japan also finds itself in a lingering territorial dispute with Russia over the southern Kuril chain (which Japan calls its Northern Territories). They have been in Moscow's hands since the end of the Second World War. 

US Navy ponders the future challenges posed by a growing Chinese navy:

  

 US Navy ponders the future challenges posed by a growing Chinese navy: Historically, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has been a land power. Mao Zedong’s revolutionary struggles and the Civil War left the gargantuan People’s Liberation Army (PLA) with political pride of place. 

With the Russian flank secure to the north and no real threat from the armies of any neighbor, the PRC’s appetite is turning toward salt water. While the US Navy is still larger than the next dozen navies of the world combined, including China’s, the Middle Kingdom boasts a fleet that could dominate East Asian waters if the Americans do not intervene.

 China Border Patrols to Search, Expel 'Illegal' Foreign Ships: In a move likely to raise regional tensions, state media say police in the southern island province of Hainan will soon be authorized to "land on, check, seize, and expel foreign ships" that enter the area illegally. The official China Daily says "illegal" activities include entering the province's waters without permission and "engaging in publicity that endangers China's national security." It says the new rules will take effect January 1.

Hainan, China's southernmost province, administers nearly two million square kilometers of the sea. In July, the Chinese military angered its neighbors by setting up a garrison in Hainan's newly established Sansha City, in an effort to enforce its claims in the region. Many of China's rival claimants, which include the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei, Malaysia and Taiwan, are concerned about what they see as Beijing's increasing assertiveness in defending its claims in the energy-rich South China Sea.

 

The passports feature a map of China that includes areas of the South China Sea claimed by other countries, as well as territory claimed by India. Taiwan's government objected to the passports Friday, following similar protests by the Philippines and Vietnam. Officials at the Indian Embassy in Beijing are protesting in their own way, stamping Chinese visas with a map showing the disputed territory belonging to India,

 According to The Press Trust of India.John Blaxland, with the Strategic and Defense Studies Center at Australian National University, called China's move "pretty clever." "It basically forces everyone who's a claimant of South China Sea elements to acknowledge it by stamping it," he said. As China's military and economic influence has grown throughout the world, Beijing has become more brazen in its claim to territories believed to be rich with oil and natural gas across the Asia-Pacific.

Remember the "incident spring 2010 with the 10 Chinese warships including destroyers and submarines off Okinawa? This put a new light on things to me. Look at the big picture once again. Japan has got to be rethinking their constant effort to get the US Military to leave Okinawa.

It will behoove Japan to have us there. This puts a whole new light on China's turn around on Iran, their monetary finagling, and their last minute turn around on whether or not to attend the nuclear summit. This latest row really has to have Japan rethinking.

Remember Just prior to this sudden mood and cooperation change with the US we were being threatened for arming Taiwan, for meeting with the Dalai lama in Washington, and threatened with slowing our economic recovery. I fell for the line of thought that the so called experts were floating that China realized that if we go down so do they.

Cooperation between China Russia and the US is critical and it just keeps getting worse! Obama was right to say our ties will shape the future of the 21st century. The US and China are eying each other and moving very cautiously as they try to strike a balance.

A few years back I began to view our relationship with China as the most important in the world. Not because we drove each others economy but because if at the time with Bush's instigation to war with Russia China due to the fact of how our 2 economies are so intertwined that if something happened China would side with us not Russia. I never imagined that today problems between China and Japan would be the issue.

As we discussed there have been at least four cases of groups of Chinese military ships crossing through the area of Okinawa since November 2008, first 4 ships then 6 then 8 and now 10 including destroyers and submarines. That case appeared to be the first involving surfaced submarines. The group of 10 ships, including the submarines, was observed about 90 miles (140 kilometers) southwest of Okinawa in international waters.

Two missile destroyers and three frigate ships from the same group were spotted participating in a flight exercise of carrier-based helicopters April 7-9, 20010, the Defense Ministry's Joint Staff Office said in a statement The war ships were in international waters but close to Okinawa and Japan was not notified.

That area as you may know has natural resources under the ocean and islands claimed by both Nations. It is important that we stay in Okinawa as China plays a more important role in Asia and around the world as she gains strength militarily and economically as we just discussed.

We are Taiwan's, Vietnam's, Australia's, and Japan's protectors. As China flex's their military muscles in the area we are not supposed to worry. Just what are we supposed to think they are going to do with their advanced weaponry, missiles, stealth aircraft, aircraft carriers and the like. Their threats are going to become more ominous until they cannot be ignored and it is too late. We have been here before. The world was not supposed to worry as Hitler built his arsenal and we know how that turned out.

Certainly not least: As Syria's fall gets closer the realities on the ground are that Iran is influencing and interfering everywhere they possibly can in order to stop what they think is the US getting its way. It has nothing to do with doing the right thing for Syria as a whole. It has everything to do with keeping the US, the West, and Arabs from having events in Syria go their way and not the way of Iran, Russia, China and the rest of their allies.

This is all about the future direction and control of the entire world. We back Japan against Russia in their Island disputes. We back Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam, Australia, and anyone else in the world it seem who asks for our help in their disputes involving the China seas. Both Russia and China vow to defend their interests with ever improving military assets. We back Syrian rebels and Arab Nations against Syria,Hezbollah, Iran, Russia, and China.

World War 3 is all I see, it is only a matter of time. As we know from history wars to not get easier over the years they get more violent, and weapons get more destructive to humans and the planet. We can only hope common sense prevails in all this but there is no way!

A Kurdish state is being established and Sunni's demand end to Shiite rule as Bush's ME breakdown progresses

  A Kurdish state is being established, and Baghdad may accept it:  I was surprised last week to read an article in the Baghdad newspaper Al-Sabah, by its editor Abd al-Jabbar Shabbout, suggesting it was time to settle the “age-old problem” between Iraq’s Arabs and Kurds by establishing a “Kurdish state.” For never before had I heard so heretical a view so publicly expressed in any Arab quarter.

And this was no ordinary quarter either. Sabah is the mouthpiece of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Shabbout went on to suggest a negotiated “ending of the Arab-Kurdish partnership in a peaceful way.”He called his proposal Plan-B – Plan-A being what was already in train: namely, a continuous “dialogue” between Iraq’s central government and the Kurdish regional government, conducted within the framework of the “new Iraq” – constitutionally defined as “federal, democratic and parliamentary” – that followed the fall of Saddam Hussein.

  Iraq protests signal growing tension between Sunni and Shia communities: Thousands of Iraqis protested in a Sunni-dominated province west of Baghdad on Wednesday, determined to keep up the pressure on a Shia-led government that many accuse of trying to marginalise them. 

 It was the third major protest in less than a week in Anbar, Iraq's largest province, once the heart of the deadly Sunni insurgency that erupted after the US-led invasion in 2003. The unrest is part of broader sectarian conflicts that threaten the stability of the country, a year after the last US troops left. 

The breakdown Sunni against Shiite against Kurd was guaranteed the day Bush ignored all good advice to the contrary and attacked Iraq. It was guaranteed as soon as we left whether we left today or were stupid enough to hang around longer as Republican nominees are wrongly criticizing Obama for not doing. From Iraq it will spread throughout the entire middle east compliments of Bush not Obama.

The International Committee of the Red Cross, in a report titled "Iraq: No Let-up in the Humanitarian Crisis," writes, "Despite limited improvements in security in some areas, armed violence is still having a disastrous impact. Civilians continue to be killed in the hostilities. "The injured often do not receive adequate medical care. Nothing has changed people except in some cases to get worse.

Millions of people have been forced to rely on insufficient supplies of poor-quality water as water and sewage systems suffer from a lack of maintenance and a shortage of engineers." "Nothing has changed people but we are leaving them to their own demise and it will spread through the entire middle east."
Both Amnesty and the Red Cross slam the Iraqi government for failing to grapple with the critical needs of their populations. 

The two reports cited a litany of concerns that will not be corrected, including severe widespread poverty, a lack of food and water, and broken families left to scrounge for whatever they can find to get by. Both reports described a situation that shows no sign of clear improvement. Many women "have been forced to wear Islamic dress or targeted for abduction, rape or killing. That is not to speak of the more than 2 million permanent nomads because of Bush's and Obama's.

If Bush had stayed in Afghanistan as he should have instead of diverting from the war on terror to attack Iraq so he could start implementing his new middle east order, Iraq may still have a Dictator but they would have security, electricity, water, fuel, and a lot more than they have now or will have in the future. We will never be able to bring services anywhere close to the level they were at when Saddam was in power. It is laughable to think that anyone thought they would be better post Saddam. 

The Congressional investigation into reconstruction in Iraq found that six out of eight projects the Bush administration claimed to be a success were falling apart, throwing doubts over the long-term viability of much of the $30 billion program. I have to tell you, the entire program, the surge, Democracy, everything, was guaranteed lost from the get go. What ever is built will be destroyed. 

The report looked at hospital projects that at last count their was one capable of operating at all and that great success. Each sect is only concerned with looking out for their own interest and future and as we are told to ignore everyday because it is not "the reality on the ground" reality is much worse! The inspectors found serious plumbing and electrical failures due to looting, equipment lying idle to me primarily because people are scared to death to venture out into the reality Bush has created for them.  This 2007 report blames Iraqi's for the disaster Bush created and still exists today From the Political system to the oil Industry, Hospitals, electricity, plumbing, security, everything, It will not be turned around and will only get a lot worse before it spreads throughout the entire middle east.

In closing, the 2009 report:The humanitarian situation remained alarming. According to the UN, at least 4 million Iraqis still did not have enough food, around 40 per cent of the population did not have access to clean drinking water, and 30 per cent did not have access to adequate health care services. The education system was near collapse with schools and universities lacking essential materials such as books, and teachers and students terrorized by violence. Many schools were bombed. The unemployment rate remained extremely high at 50 per cent or even higher. If this is success the entire middle east is screwed and you see that it is with what is just starting in Syria!

In the middle of our "success" I still see a total civil war Sunni against Shiite erupting in the Middle East because Bush freed up Iran to instigate it on their end and they are. I still am concerned we will have a permanent presence in the Middle East but feel we will have to largely leave Iraq to her own demise. We will still be there but it looks like Yemen, and the Gulf of Aden will be the prime focus unless Iran gets something going between the US and Iran.

As you know, I talk about it often as I watch Bush's new Middle East (dis)order progress. He ignored Afghanistan so he could use the patriot acts powers to divert from Afghanistan to attack Iraq using the excuse of unseating Saddam so he could get in the Middle East to help Israel establish a buffer zone and establish a new middle east (dis) order or so Israel and Cheney thought. Bush at Cheney's urging made an abrupt shift in policy towards Syria, a shift that has now brought the entire Mideast region to the brink of war and chaos. Much worse than the hell on earth they created for Iraq. Did you ever read   A clean Break a 2003 Executive intelligence Review that tells the truth as to our diabolical plans

That plan was put together in 1996 for Israel. They were just waiting for an idiot to come along so they could implement their plan for the Middle East. Along came the life long follower and life long alcoholic loser Georgie Bush. I wish I could say the rest is History but this is still barely beginning and just beginning to take shape. All Bush did by ignoring Afghanistan and attacking Iraq was to guarantee a loss of everything and a complete Middle East and Asian Breakdown.

We freed Iran up to pursue her version of new middle East order by interfering wherever she could while Bush was doing the same thing with his Middle East Democratization program. I think you can see how successful Bush and Cheney were with chaos creating Middle East Democracy program but you are barely seeing the results they created in Iran.

The goal absolutely is to be the country who decides which direction the new Middle East (dis)order will take. Bush started it by attacking Iraq to get into the middle east to destabilize it and start the new middle east order the idiot said God told him to do now it will be up to Iran and Saudi Arabia at least up front fight it out whether this goes the Iranian Shiite way or the Saudi Arabian Sunni way and do not forget Israel!

You know I firmly believe and have said so a million times by now that since 9/11 everything was construed to allow Bush to gain the power he needed to prosecute his new order not just in the Middle East but on the entire world! He diverted from Afghanistan to get back into the Middle East with the goal of setting up a larger safety zone for Israel and going after Iran. Both will fail! It has long been my contention that coming to Israel's aid once they attack Iran will be our in to Iran!

What about the Kurds who want their autonomy and they do not want to share their oil fields period. Nuri Al-Maliki wants that issue resolved and it will never be. The entire middle east and north Africa and our more than century of interference and exploitation can take the blame for that too.  This is going to happen even under a President Obama. Watch out Iran, watch out world, watch out America!

Life Today The Real Story; Final word

We must attempt to work out  what is happening in the middle east, in the China seas, and around the world at the same time we must cure our own numerous societal ills or we will not progress successfully through the 21st century. 

It is going to take a new way of thinking on our and the entire worlds part. We can not continue to treat or deal with problems and issues as we have in the past.

Civilization and the planet have run the course of world war already. We and the planet cannot survive a rebirth of feelings that led us down that path in the first place as we seem to be in many parts of the world right now. 

We must attempt to make all parties involved realize that at this point in the life of man and the planet we have been there done that. We must be satisfied as to where we are and negotiate for what we want. 

We must not be stupid enough to even think we and the planet can survive a world war with the destructive weapons of today.

Our weapons are now too advanced for us to go back to that way of thinking. We must be made to accept our positions. Respect each others independence and move forward, we can do this.

 

We have some quick choices to make. We are allowing too much nonconformity right here in our own society.

 We can see the terrible effect it is having on our well being, mentally, physically, financially and structurally. If speaking the truth or doing the right thing is going to hurt one party or the other that’s fine. We must relearn as a country the principal of doing the right thing for the sake of doing the right thing.

 

You can see all that we have before us. We know that we need some fresh minds to deal with the problems.

We as citizens must get involved in one respect or the other. We must help to resolve all these festering wounds in our society and the world.

The Governments of the world must be smart enough to listen to the citizens of the world or we are in serious trouble. 

The old school has proven that their methods continually make things worse, they seem to only want division at home and war to get what they want. 

This is true and we must remember that their mindset is what put us in this position in the first place. We can and must do this.

 We have to wake up our leaders. We must help where we can. Our children’s future and maybe that of the world depend on us, let’s roll. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

Life Today The Real Story; Afterword part 3

We are our most important problem to fix before we march into the future primarily because when this war against the Islamist Jihadists is won if we do not get our own act together we will be no better off. 

We would still have a broken system here with the same personal problems at home. I know we are told that the war against the terrorists is the most important event that has ever faced us. I will guarantee you that once again they are wrong. 

Look at our massively broken society! The most important battle is cleaning up the collective improprieties right here at home for without fixing our own enormous problems we will have won nothing but a little time. 

Let us think first and remember Rome. This decadence has to stop. It has been the downfall of every single society in world history that has managed to escape destruction in war.

We know we cannot go on this way. We have all suffered daily as a result of someone’s immorality. These are extremely contentious times. This lying and underhandedness is ruining us Politically, Financially, and pervasively in every single aspect of our daily life.

We have hit the point in civilizations and the world’s evolution where man is now in direct control of the survival of man and the planet. That is a scary thought we are in serious trouble.

 I just can’t see man doing the right thing though I pray that we do. Man can’t even seem to manage himself. I have always said that if the survival of something is up to man it is in trouble. It is our very survival, God help us.

Nostradamus put our alternatives in stark contrast for us. He laid out two scenarios for us. He said that the 21^st century would be marked by ethnic and religious conflicts erupting all over the world.

 We could let this turmoil rip the world apart or we could embrace a new feeling of religiousness and save ourselves. It does not matter what we want. We all know we want peace but it is out of our hands.

 It is the Muslims who we must get to understand the dire consequences of their actions and inactions and misactions.

 

Muslim law strongly forbids Muslims to declare war against a country where they are allowed to practice their religion freely. 

It strongly prohibits the killing of innocent civilians to say nothing of the killing and destruction of fellow Muslims and their lands.

 We know that as far as nature man and time are concerned that there is no turning back. Life’s systems work only in one direction, forward. We cannot allow anyone to attempt to take us back to a path we have already traveled down. 

 

With this in mind I heard on 11/30/04 “when I wrote this” that Muslims are determined to fight the Americans until doomsday if necessary. Their goal was restated. I have been voicing this for a couple of years prior. 

Primarily to hopefully understand the real sensitivity needed to treat them and their lands with respect. I said this then and I repeat it again this time as the middle east is in turmoil and we are getting dragged in ever deeper. We just can’t seem to understand this. 

We certainly don’t seem to be able to give them what they want. This is due to our ignorance or lack of understanding I guess because in this instance Senator Kerry was right. We must attempt to work this out. It is going to take a new way of thinking on our part. We can not continue to treat or deal with them as we have in the past.

 

Civilization and the planet have run that course already. We and the planet cannot survive a rebirth of feelings that led us down that path in the first place. We must attempt to make all parties involved realize that at this point in the life of man and the planet we have been there done that. 

Our weapons are now too advanced for us to go back to that way of thinking. We must be made to accept our positions. Respect each others independence and move forward, we can do this.

 

We have some quick choices to make. We are allowing too much nonconformity right here in our own society.

 We can see the terrible effect it is having on our well being, mentally, physically, financially and structurally. If speaking the truth or doing the right thing is going to hurt one party or the other that’s fine. We must relearn as a country the principal of doing the right thing for the sake of doing the right thing.

Life Today The Real Story; Afterword part 2

Whatever happened to the principal of doing the right thing just for the sake of doing the right thing? What happened to Thomas Jefferson’s idea of America, with the knowledge that anyone who became a member of a society would automatically do the right thing for that society? 

That they would automatically have, receive, or use, common sense? Remember we as a Nation were born around the time of the Enlightenment. 

By the end of the 16^th century the west had embarked on a process of technicalization that would ultimately lead to en entirely different kind of society.

 It was a new kind of humanity that ultimately would lead to a change in the western perception of the role and nature of God. 

The achievements of the west changed the course of world history. This in turn opened an already existing gap in the cultures of Islam and the west. 

These still appear difficult if not impossible to close. Until the 18^th century Islam had been the dominant world power in Africa, The Middle East, and the Mediterranean. 

 

By the end of the 18^th century the west had begun to dominate the world. The very nature of its accomplishments meant that the rest of the world would never catch up "Or so they thought, think, and now hope".

The British had also taken control of India and Europe was colonizing as much of the world as it could. The process of westernization had begun. 

*With it the cult of secularism began that claimed an independence of God. They had the view that consideration of the well being of man kind would take precedence over religious considerations.

 We know what the atmosphere was like when the Constitution was drafted. We know what our founding fathers were intending. 

We know it wasn’t for us to twist bend and rewrite the Constitution but adhere to it in principal to the benefit of society and country.

We must make a concerted Nation wide effort to regain our morality. As a Nation it is an absolute shambles. We are telling people to feel free and tear apart our society if you want it is your right, no way.

It is their right as much as it is the Islamists right, and no one has the right. We are telling our citizens that they have the right to do, say, be, anything they want regardless of what anyone else thinks.

We are telling all the weirdo’s to come out of the proverbial closet. Then they’re forcing us society minded righteous people in.

 We are telling our own people they have the right to do what we are telling the terrorist they do not have the right to do. We have to get on the same page. Someone up there must be capable of thinking things through.

We must ensure the proper functioning of our own society. We have to do this at the same time that we are dealing with the problem of the Islamists. 

We are our most important problem to fix before we march into the future. Primarily because when this war against the Islamist Jihadists is won if we do not get our own act together we will be no better off. 

We would still have a broken system here with the same personal problems at home. I know we are told that the war against the terrorists is the most important event that has ever faced us. I will guarantee you that once again they are wrong. 

The most important battle is cleaning up the collective improprieties right here at home. For without fixing our own enormous problems we will have won nothing but a little time. Let us think first and remember Rome. 

This decadence has to stop. It has been the downfall of every single society in world history that has managed to escape destruction in war.

We know we cannot go on this way. We have all suffered daily as a result of someone’s immorality. These are extremely contentious times.

 This lying and underhandedness is ruining us Politically, Financially, and pervasively in every single aspect of our daily life.

We have hit the point in civilizations and the world’s evolution where man is now in direct control of the survival of man and the planet.

 That is a scary thought we are in serious trouble. Jane Goodal hit it on the head when she said in regards to the gorilla habitats and the planet that we made a terrible mess of things. 

She was right and I just can’t see man doing the right thing though I pray that we do. Man can’t even seem to manage himself. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

Life Today The Real Story; Afterword

Those of us who have read this know what we have to do now. The direct repercussions of our actions or inactions at this point are blatantly clear.

 It is up to us to attempt to get our leaders to understand the tremendous negative impact their immorality is having on us.

 We must get them to realize the impact their constant and continuous misreading and ignorance of the situations arising around the world.

 

We have in many cases become our own worse enemies. We are losing our collective morality. The lying stealing and killing as we are all living and experiencing first hand has to stop.

 We all know how detrimental all this is to every one of us. Wow, just imagine how much money we would save simply by everyone practicing what they preach. Live the Constitution the way it was intended.

 Look at the cost to our country, someone quantify it. We could eliminate the national debt in no time if people will only pull 100% together. Do the right thing, for the country for society not you.

This is ruining us personally, financially, government-ally and above all, it is psychologically damaging to all of us.

 We want to change moral directions. We must get back to as a rule, taking the rest of society into consideration. Let’s do the right thing. Let’s make President Reagan and Thomas Jefferson proud.

Often times we are saying and showing that society doesn’t matter anymore. This is so wrong and it is exactly what Thomas Jefferson and others at the time feared.

 It is a direct result of what he feared most. He feared we would stop using our common sense and do the right thing. He feared that we would start using reason or lack there of in order to make decisions.

 We are saying society doesn’t come first ahead of our own selfish interests. It has too. Society is the very foundation of our Nation.

 As a whole we must remember this. No society no nation. Weak society weak nation, we know what works and we know what worked. It is time for us to regroup and get back to what we know works.

Lifes Realities and Nostradamus conclusion: Installment 5

In conclusion:What has happened to the men and women of principal? If we ever needed them we need them now. If you have to work at implementing ideals then they are not yours to espouse.

if you have to try and emulate some one you admire you will always come up short.

Both President Bush’s have tried to emulate the President they admired and respected. President Bush 1 fell way short and president Bush 2 was way off.

Getting elected as President of the United States is important. However not at the expense of your integrity which was the case in the last two Presidents.

 If you are principled and want nothing more than to help the country you should be okay. Then the every day American the people will sense that.

The idea is not what we flagrantly get thrown in our faces daily. That is not the sitting Presidents position to take advantage of and help his friends as is usually the case. The idea is not to see what the country can do for your friends.

 There is nothing worse than cronyism at a level like that of the U.S. Government. If you do the right thing for the party you’re in even if it is wrong for the people and the country. If you do not you are gone. It’s as simple as that. Family and friends are not to be treated any differently.

 With a principled person they are not. You have a job to do for the country. That should be all that matters period.

We never see the right thing done. However, once a year we hear the right thing being said then nothing. If you have to lie or stretch the truth, it’s no good. If you have to compromise your standards then the votes you would acquire are worthless and not worth it.

 The goal lately has been to say or do what ever you have to in order to get elected. We all know that neither party can say other wise. Getting you party elected for all the wrong reasons is not important people are. At least they are supposed to be.

Talking on this subject invokes memories of a man I didn’t always agree with but you could always agree with his intentions and principals.

 When you take a position, (job) the driving thought seems to be of how you can further your own selfish agenda. It is supposed to be of how you can further the cause of the working people and further the cause of the Country. Boy do we have this all wrong.

The feeling seems to be increasingly of what I can get out of this. We must stop this downward slide that both parties have us on.

 Sadly enough they seem to have the rest of the ruling economy for company. In the 60s and 70s I was disgruntled with our government systems on every level.

 Looking back it seems like it would be nice to have only that level of corruptive ineptitude instead of what we are getting today. What I have finally woken up to is that if you care or have concerns you must get into action.

 No one else is going to take care of your concerns. We can’t even seem to get our servants on any level to do the right thing.

 We all know this adage and it is absolutely right on. If you want something done right you have to do it yourself. So let us do it.

 I wish all of us the best of luck as we move into the future.

Nostradamus gave us two roads to travel in the future, one to peace and prosperity and the other to war, famine, and death and total destruction. Sadly we seem bent on taking the latter but we can do it if we take control ourselves. Lets Roll, Adios and Good Luck to us.Life Today The Real Story "2005"
