President Bashar Assad’s Crackdown!

    Troops backed by tanks, snipers & knife-wielding security forces, portend a place in History in the middle east. This man is bound and determined to keep his post. He has gotten tougher as the 5 weeks of turmoil come to fruition in Syria. He want’s to keep what he’s got. The protestors, wish for him to end the uprising in a peaceable manner as they go to one after another funerals through their streets, of those that have been taken down. They felt like they had a glimmer of hope, but alas, now they face an ever tougher 'demander of quells' to the rebellion in their President.

    This is not good. NATO has spoken against such action also. I have noted our own Country has instigated Sanctions against Syria for their bloody quelling of men who are not allowed a different view of opinion. At the very least, we are doing something, at long last. I only hope it's enough to help turn the tide.

 Getting tougher does not seem to be the answer. That only makes the remaining ones fight harder to obtain what they want. And no matter what you do to quell them, they will come out of the woodwork!

    How can a man make himself into such a hideous creature that no one outside of his own Country thinks highly of him anymore. I am sure this type of Civil War, raging inside Syria is not good for Syria’s standing in the World Scene.  I wonder who is giving him advise? They are surely half-heartedly doing this, for if they truly believe what they are suggesting to him, what a pitiful bunch of people, he has surrounded himself with. They have to know they are making him into a monster, no one likes. I for one thought he was Ok when this all started, he seemed sensible from what I was reading, plus he had a beautiful wife, but now I do not. He has had 5 weeks to show his true colors and show them he has done it. As one witness says, ‘it’s war to annihilate pro-democracy movement.’
    Now really, how does Assad think most Countries would not be furious at him and his actions to put down a revolt, he does not agree with. How inhuman of him to activate this type of murderous belief. How can he justify such action and live with himself and sleep well at night.
These are his very own people and he seems to care naught for one of them, only for himself to maintain his present stature. Why couldn’t he have just incorporated these people into his present regime, with favorable laws that would benefit all and try to solve some of the problems that beset them all. He has taken a detestable situation and made it shameful.
    Assad appears to favor Iran which is not a good idea. For we know they are on the losing side against Israel. He certainly will not come out smelling like a Rose. It will be formidable task to find friends to back him and play along side his 'melee of disaster.' I guess he has not thought this out to it’s finished product. Nothing will be gained by this action of his. Nada! In fact, he will be unable to visit decent folk when he desires to venture out into the World. His family surely will not be welcomed either. Why would a man put his family into that kind of situation?
    I only hope he comes to his senses and decides that perhaps he is wrong. There is naught wrong with being ‘WRONG.’ There is everything wrong with perpetuating evil upon your very own people, and other innocent civilians and by standers.
    There is everything ‘RIGHT,’ with ‘repentance.’ Change your mind, turn around and go the other way. Why fight till the bitter end? You’ll just end up a ‘bitter old man.’ And even your family will not like the kind of man, you have become. I bet if you asked them, they would tell you the truth. Family has a way about telling the Truth that the ‘hired help’ will not do. They will just agree with you, because ‘you butter their bread.’ Family knows you. Family loves you. Family is the closest thing to God you will find. For God says, ‘he puts the Solitary in Families.’

 Listen to them and what they are saying and ‘you might hear God!’ He’ll tell you what to do.

Warning! Iran President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Everybody seems to be chasing their tail, round and round they go, nowhere to stop and regroup.
It’s as if, we have become afraid of a ‘mad’ man. If  Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is not making any sense, he indeed, is considered by all, to be a man ‘mad,’ at the world. Why would we, be placing any value, on any words that he spoke. How can one honestly believe a ‘mad’ man, is going to be placing ‘truth’ on anything. He can’t, for he don’t understand ‘the truth.’ It is a foreign concept to him. A bully is indeed a man, 'mad at the world.'
If he told us he was being co-operative, and complying with everything our Sanctions asked for, could we ‘truly believe him?’

Now here we are concerned, that this tiny County is fixing to have Nuclear Weapons, and aim them at Israel and ‘punch the button.’
   
Well that is a valid concern on everybody's part. Even if he says, he ain’t going into nukes, who’s to ‘trust’ what he has to say,’ if he gets his weapons to working properly that is. But he has a few years to get to that kind of feasible avenue of ‘show off.’ And supposedly, they are for generating energy for his Country.

Well, he really needs to stay inside the confines of his own 4 walls, and generate some sensible energy within his Country, and quit running over here telling us, what he is going to do, and not going to do. Why should we have to be subjected to listening to him or looking at him, for that matter. That is just giving the nutcase, what he wants(attention). I really hate being manipulated by a ‘mad man,’ and I'm just a peon.

So we have invoked Sanctions on Iran. Well that is like pouring grease on a fire. All that is going to happen is, one, we will end up getting a bigger flame. Sanctions will not stop some isolated man, who wants attention, from getting it. He’ll invent new ways we ain’t thought of yet. His desire for attention is that deep. This is, I repeat, just his way of getting attention. I truly believe that 'attention,' is surely more important to him, than any damage he can do. He is a true egoist.

Has anyone considered telling the man, what will happen to his Country and people, if he so much as ‘GRAZES THE ISRAELI GRASS.'’ To even hint to us, and them, at sending a Nuclear Weapon their way, should be enough to make him understand, we in the USA, protect our friend Israel, to the nth degree. That would mean insurmountable damage, done to his tiny County also.

HE'S IN A LOSE, LOSE SITUATION.

He surely would ‘not fare thee well, AND HIS PIDDLY REIGN, WOULD BE OVER WITH, FOR SURE. NO MORE ATTENTION. He would not win against us. That is that. I personally believe somebody ought to ‘WARN’ him what is coming his way, if he stupidly follows the vapor trail of his rockets, heading to Israel, WHICH HE HAS THREATENED TO DO, hopefully, this Administration, plus the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, plus the Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta  plus the President, Barack Hussein Obama, will make a believer out of him, that's a worthy occupation for a woman or a man.

Someone needs to tell him to straighten his 'ACT UP,' SO AS TO 'PROTECT  HIS COUNTRY.' Then the International Communities, will send him all the help he wants, might even 'listen' to him . Why enforce Sanctions,  Promises are pretty effective. One's Negative, One's Positive, and we  really should have a Positive Foreign Policy if at all possible.

But even if we as a Country, desire, non-nuclear Countries,(as any SANE PERSON WILL), remember, that stick still comes into play, in the game he is playing.

 At the very least, we should take the ‘air out of his sail,' BY TELLING HIM, ‘WE’RE NOT UPHOLDING HIM(Ahmadinejad) AND IRAN, WE’RE UP HOLDING NETANYAHU AND ISRAEL.’
    Why are we letting a bully call the shots? Bully's should not be in 'control..'
    What I do not understand is why are we ‘groveling with a mad man?’

Switcheroo! Afghan President Hamid Karzai

The Hamid Karzai remarks were the latest sign of tension between the two administrations, despite President Obama's meeting with Hamid Karzai over the weekend during his unexpected trip to Afghanistan. The Afghan president last month invited Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Kabul, where he delivered an anti-American speech inside the palace. Hamid Karzai has also recently visited China and Iran. (Quote from the Internet-Associated Press)We sure know ahead of the game, that Iran is Anti-Israel. How could he do this? I thought he was Pro-democracy!


Now this does not sit well, with any American, I am sure. No where, do we expect a man who’s been here to America(whom we have helped before), to deliver anti-American speeches to Iran and China or have them delivered to him. It does not sit well with me, to have Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, going into this guys castle at Kabul, and bad mouthing us, with anti-American speech. Puts Hamid Karzai, right up there, on the same level, with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, where it becomes obvious, they both, think ill of us(It’s no newsflash what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, believes about us) You got to be very careful, entertaining, enemies of one's friends. It can look like, all may not be above board. There is a tendency to gossip, about the one not present. And we know gossip can get vitriolic, rapidly. Just to be on the safe side, I repeat, one does not entertain, one's friends, enemies.


I guess, it’s only a matter of time, before Hamid Karzai will make himself known. Like, who’s side, he is really on. It’s just too bad we have to side off, but we do. That way we know, who is for us and who is against us.  He was formerly for us, He seems to be presently against us. Who’s side, he is on in the Future, seems to be anybody's guess. His Loyalty Zig Zags all over the place.


That, is too bad, for he does appear, to have some intelligence. I have been reading up on him at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamid_Karzai.


I will say this, in his defense, he ain't afraid of no one. He just keeps on trucking along, even after repeated attempts on his life. Yiyaa, for him on that.


To quote Assassination Attempts of Hamid Karzai:

    * 5 September 2002: An assassination attempt was made on Hamid Karzai in Kandahar City. A gunman wearing the uniform of the new Afghan National Army opened fire, wounding Gul Agha Sherzai (former governor of Kandahar) and an American Special Operations officer. The gunman, one of the President's bodyguards, and a bystander who knocked down the gunman were killed when Hamid Karzai's American bodyguards returned fire. Recently, some pictures of the US Navy's DEVGRU responding to the attempt have surfaced. Allegedly one of their members was wounded.[citation needed]

    * 16 September 2004: An attempted assassination on Hamid Karzai took place when a rocket missed the helicopter he was flying in while en route to Gardez.

    * 10 June 2007: The Taliban attempted to assassinate Hamid Karzai in Ghazni where Hamid Karzai was giving a speech to elders. The Taliban fired approximately 12 rockets, some of which landed 220 yards (200 m) away from the crowd. Hamid Karzai was not hurt in the incident and was transported away from the location after finishing his speech.

Search Wikinews
   

Wikinews has related news: President of Afghanistan uninjured after assassination attempt

    * 27 April 2008: Insurgents, reportedly from the Haqqani network, used automatic weapons and rocket-propelled grenades to attack a military parade that Hamid Karzai was attending in Kabul. Hamid Karzai was safe, but at least three people were killed, including a parliamentarian, a ten-year-old girl and a minority leader, and ten injured. Others attending the event included government ministers, former warlords, diplomats and the military top brass, all of whom had gathered to mark the 16th anniversary of the fall of the Afghan communist government to the mujahideen. Responding to the attack during the ceremony, the United Nations said the attackers "have shown their utter disrespect for the history and people of Afghanistan." Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid claimed responsibility for the attack, stating, "We fired rockets at the scene of the celebration." He went on to say there were 6 Taliban at the scene and that 3 were killed. "Our aim was not to directly hit someone," Mujahed said when asked if the intention was to kill Hamid Karzai. "We just wanted to show to the world that we can attack anywhere we want to". The ability of the attackers to get so close to Hamid Karzai suggested they had inside help. Defense minister Wardak confirmed that a police captain was connected with the group behind the assassination attempt and that an army officer supplied the weapons and ammunition used in the attack.
    * This kind of news makes you root for the underdog, don't it?
    *  Makes one wonder, if he ain't got an
    * Angel, watching over him.
    * Most people don't live through one attempt. Yiyaa again


But we, need to be careful how we treat Hamid Karzai, none the less. Why should he get the perks of America, if he is going to go behind our backs, or in front of us, and complain about what we are doing, in trying to oversee, his democratic, voting system. He needs a taste of Loyalty.

  

He has a ‘win at all cost attitude,’ when it comes to his, being voted in as president of his Country, even though, it was a fraud ridden contest, and even he knows, it wasn’t ‘fair and square,’ or there would be no doubts permeating the airways. To quote Wikipedia, "In this second presidential election, Hamid Karzai was announced to have received over 50% of the votes. The election was tainted by lack of security, low voter turnout and widespread ballot stuffing, intimidation, and other electoral fraud.

Two months later Hamid Karzai accepted calls for a second round run-off vote, which was scheduled for 7 November 2009. On 2 November 2009, Hamid Karzai's run-off opponent, Abdullah Abdullah, withdrew from the race and election officials announced the cancellation of the run-off race. Hamid Karzai, the only remaining contender, was declared the winner a short time later."

 

He, from all appearances, has done his Country, some good, and most of all, he needs to continue, to do his Country good. But not, if he, is not truly representative of the people, who wanted him there, or did not want him there. Either way! He won! E’en, if it be, through a, Quasi-Afghanistanian-Tainted-Democracy. I truly believe he does want to benefit his Country. He would be a ridiculous Leader if he did not. But, he needs to be working with, our Military not against it(with his Taliban Tendencies.) One cannot go back to the old days(the way it used to be), it does not work. He needs to move on.


To quote Wikipedia, "Hamid Karzai was officially sworn in as President of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan on 7 December 2004, at a formal ceremony in Kabul. Many interpreted the ceremony as a symbolically important "new start" for the war-torn nation. Notable guests at the inauguration included the country's former King, Zahir Shah, three former US presidents, and US Vice President Dick Cheney. But one wonders at what cost?"


Oh, well, it is an unfolding story, that will play out on the World stage, with our Military Presence overseeing it. For good or bad, this is the scene. Who are we helping? I for the life of me, do not know the answer to that. Those people are tough. Strikes me, they may not even want our help, but now that they have it, at least, their President, should not be acting like, we are not helping them, for we are doing what we think feasible, for Afghanistan and it’s people. What is Hamid Karzai doing, but sowing discord, to his neighbors, by allowing them a soapbox, un-censored and un-fettered, concerning us. Makes one wonder, what he tells his people! Makes one wonder, what he tells our Leaders?


Quotes from Wikipedia, "Starting in 2009, the US and a number of western nations attempted to distance themselves from Karzai. International criticism has centered around the government of Hamid Karzai for failing to secure the country from Taliban attacks, systemic governmental corruption, and most recently, widespread claims of electoral fraud in the 2009 Afghan presidential election. Hamid Karzai staunchly defended the election balloting, stating that some statements criticizing the balloting and vote count were "totally fabricated." He told the media that, "There were instances of fraud, no doubt... There were irregularities... But the election as a whole was good and free and democratic." He further went on to say that, "Afghanistan has its separate problems and we have to handle them as Afghanistan finds it feasible... This country was completely destroyed... Today, we are talking about fighting corruption in Afghanistan, improved legal standards... You see the glass half empty or half full. I see it as half full. Others see it as half empty."


Another quote from Wikipedia, "In a 2008 interview, Hamid Karzai expressed his feelings towards the United States by stating: "If I am called a puppet because we are grateful to America, then let that be my nickname." Although many in United States charge that Iran is meddling in Afghanistan's affairs, Hamid Karzai believes that Iran is only a friend of Afghanistan, despite Iranian-made arms being found in his country. In 2007, Hamid Karzai contradicted US assessments on Iran's role in Afghanistan by saying that Iran, so far, has been a helper in the reconstruction process.


On 5 August 2007, Hamid Karzai was invited to Camp David in Maryland, USA, for a special meeting with U.S. President George W. Bush. In October 2007, Hamid Karzai again rejected Western accusations against Iran, stating, "We have resisted the negative propaganda launched by foreign states against the Islamic Republic, and we stress that aliens' propaganda should not leave a negative impact on the consolidated ties between the two great nations of Iran and Afghanistan."


Hamid Karzai added, "The two Iranian and Afghan nations are close to each other due to their bonds and commonalities, they belong to the same house, and they will live alongside each other for good." However, just a year prior Hamid Karzai warned that, "Iran, Pakistan, and others are not fooling anyone."

    "If they don’t stop, the consequences will be ... that the region will suffer with us equally. In the past we have suffered alone; this time everybody will suffer with us.... Any effort to divide Afghanistan ethnically or weaken it will create the same thing in the neighboring countries. All the countries in the neighborhood have the same ethnic groups that we have, so they should know that it is a different ball game this time."

    —Hamid Karzai, 17 February 2006

Afghanistan has bred, some truly despotic and despicable people, who have Terrorist inclinations, for they always seem to be training, in that Country, for Individual Warfare with Suicidal Tendencies.


But, true to form, they are deemed, to have trained, the best! This shows, one has to be careful, how one deals with these type of people. They do not seem to have any loyalties, whatsoever, except to violence, for it is just, whoever feeds them that day, or who ever can benefit them the Greatest. But at the very least, we do understand, the kinds of people we are dealing with, AND IT’S LEADER. Switcheroo’s, which is good.

                For who knows, maybe they will

SWITCHEROO,

ON OUR SIDE FOR A CHANGE.


BUT THE BIG QUESTION IS,

WHERE WILL THEY END UP?

Peace! Prime Minister Netanyahu

 Bonhoeffer said. God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to stand is to stand. There is a clear line between good and evil and it is becoming more clear each day. I urge you to do your homework. Find out where the good is and stand there! 'I got the above quote from Glen Beck. Thought it 'good.'

This is in reference to a Diplomatic standing America took, to the announcement of apartments being build by Israel and some of their comments made. They were simply stated unhappy about it, cause it would interfere with the Mideast Peace Process. SORRY PEOPLE, BUT THAT'S A NO, NO TO ME! BEING UNHAPPY WITH ISRAEL, NOT SO SMART. We should be calling them friends, and one is not unhappy with their friends. ONE UNDERSTANDS FRIENDS! One is unhappy with their ENEMIES!

Peace! Prime Minister Netanyahu

  I am writing a book about the Jews and the Arabs. Naw, it is not finished. It’s a hard book to write. I have learned quite a bit about both, by the way. So I start this treatise, by asking you?

    How the hell, are you going to garner Peace in a region that has long been known as the place where Armageddon will happen at the Battle of Megiddo? I have been instructed by God to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but I am also smart enough to figure out there ain’t gonna be no peace between the Arabs and the Jews. There will never be peace between the ‘Flesh~Ismael and the ‘Promise~Isaac.’ Don’t waste your time thinking the Palestinians want only Jerusalem. Israel is standing between us and the Palestinian-Arabs not us standing between Israeli and the Palestinian-Arabs. How dorky can the USA be?

    Leave Netanyahu, to be Prime Minister of Israel. It looks like he is doing exactly what the people want him to do. He must have been a really good leader for the Israeli’s to put him back in office again We are not now, and have never had, to buy our way into the good graces, of any Country. Friendship is not based on how big your pocket book is. It is based on ‘respect and love.’ I  for one love Netanyahu and respect him greatly. I used to pray for him repeatedly during his first tenure in office as President. And now he is back in full glory. That is more than I can say about some of our leaders who are bought by ‘money.’

    Netanyahu is ‘inflaming passions’ by this special announcement that  Israel will build 1,600, housing units in East Jerusalem.

    How the hell, do you inflame passions between the Arabs and the Jews. That is about as oxymoronish as saying, honeymooners aren’t passionate and screwing each other. Of course, the Arabs want the wailing wall, and they are passionate about it, because they ain’t got enough walls to wail on. Of course, the Jews want Jerusalem, IT IS THEIR CAPITAL. THEY HAVE BEEN INVADED AND THEY WANT IT BACK, IT’S QUITE SIMPLE. The Jews have a history that begins with David buying the Threshing Floor of Araunah. 2Sa 24:21  And Araunah said, "Why has my lord the king come to his servant?" David said, "To buy the threshing floor from you, in order to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be averted from the people."  This is where the temple is built. They were going to give it to him, he said, no I’ll pay for it. 2Sa 24:24  But the king said to Araunah, "No, but I will buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God that cost me nothing." So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.

Why would anyone want anything that did not cost them anything, money or maybe otherwise. Maybe the Jews can Pay the Arabs for Jerusalem, but that would be asking a lot, on both sides. Maybe, but I doubt they will find my comments, stable. At least, that is better than signing a 'PEACE OF PAPER' unless it was an honest to goodness 'DEED,' which the Israelites own anyway WITH OR WITHOUT THAT PEACE OF PAPER. JERUSALEM’S NOT A BARGAINING POINT!  WE HUMAN’S DIDN’T INVENT HEAVEN! JERUSALEM BELONGS TO THE JEWS, PERIOD. SUBJECT CLOSED!

    They say, Netanyahu, has offended us here in the USA and is not ‘grateful’ enough to ‘big brother.’ Well, I think he is smarter than that. I think all the Israeli’s are smart enough to be ‘grateful’ to us. I feel it, even if our 3 main leaders do not. But by being grateful one does not have to sell, their soul, to do as the ‘money talks.’

    Wake up, go into the Wailing Wall and look around. http://www.aish.com/wallcam/ Those Jews are talking to God with everything they are. Those Jews, are grateful to God for what He has provided for them, even the lack of provisions, I think they are grateful for. They know you have to ‘Enter His Gates, with Thanksgiving, His Courts with Praise. David’s Psalms. But I would be careful if I were the USA, of course, I am the USA, it is not good to fool around with, Father God. He has his Right Hand over the Israelites. I only pray he has his Left hand over me, My Family, My Friends, My Acquaintances. I can plead can’t I? Cause it’s beginning to look like the USA has swayed away from treating Israel right, which puts them in a bad place.Yet, if you Stand Up, Be Counted, and GET A LITTLE NOISY(sign my column or speak-tell another)I pray the left hand extends to you also. Hey, I believe in prayer. Anything is possible! I don't have to see the answers but sometimes God rewards us from our prayer closet by allowing us to see the answers.

They have a smaller unemployment rate than we do, they must be doing something right. Course, probably, some of that accounts for the fact, that they have enforced Military Service, at a certain age. That is, because, they have, to have a strong Military presence in the Middle East and cannot afford for their young people to veer away from Nationalism and Jewism.
   
    One other minor point, Israel has seemed to offend, the moderate Arabs according to some high ranking individuals over here. Another oxymoron. There is not such thing as a moderate Arab. How can you offend something that does not exists. There are Arabs that are ‘upset’ at the ‘happenings’ around them. So be it. One must never live their lives, running from ‘upset.’ If you do the devil will just keep um coming.......and trying to always please the devil, will get you on the same train. It ain’t going no where.

     Now they also, obviously, got a thing or two to teach us about SECURITY. I would think so. They been battling that, way before this Country knew what a Terrorist was.

    I would be careful, America, I quote myself, in my "You Can't Fiddle In The Wind,' Book, "as Israel goes, so goes America." History seems to support that idea.

    Now I will be the first to state, as the     WORD, says, CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY, WHOM YOU WILL SERVE, IF BAAL FOLLOW HIM, BUT IF GOD FOLLOW HIM. Now I hope you all do realize I am paraphrasing from Scriptures that I know.

Alls I am saying, is this, “We got to be careful who’s side we are really on. As for me and my family, we shall follow the Lord.”
   
    How can Israel, insult us? All they want, is to be able to do their own thing. And we need to Diplomatically support them from America. Not criticize their every move. They don’t need America telling them what to do, they got the Bible for that, God himself. Get real.

And more than that, how would America feel, not so smug I bet. if their Jewish family was slaughtered by thieves in the night. HOW HORRIBLE, INNOCENT CIVILIANS and CHILDREN TO BOOT. HOW VERY COWARDLY OF THEIR ENEMIES. After that America certainly would not have all the answers. but, yes, Israel is now looking for the answers, till they come, as to who did it, and why they did it. They sure don’t need us telling them WHAT TO BUILD AND WHERE TO BUILD OR TO GIVE UP MORE LAND! The Arabs don’t want more land! When are we ever gonna learn, THEY WANT ALL THE LAND!

When did we become so utterly smitten by another's ‘point of view?’ Israel is not us. LET PEOPLE DIFFER FOR GOODNESS SAKE! We are a BIGGER COUNTRY THAN THAT!

AND WE BETTER ALL OUT SUPPORT ISRAEL, WITH OUR WORDS AND STANCE, AND LET THE WORLD KNOW WHO’S SIDE WE ARE ON, CAUSE I DON’T THINK YOU WANT GOD ANGRY WITH AMERICA, WE’RE ALREADY IN A HELLISH WAY.

WE OUGHT TO PUT ON THE BELLS AND WHISTLES FOR PRESIDENT SHIMON PEREZ AND PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU AND SHAKE THE HANDS OF FRIENDS, WHEN THEY VISIT US NEXT TIME. LET UM KNOW WE CARE THAT THEY ARE SITTING SLAP DAB IN THE MIDDLE OF SYRIA which is fomenting, LEBANON which is fomenting, JORDAN which is fomenting, EGYPT which is fomenting, IRAQ which if fomenting, and IRAN who will try to take over Iraq as soon as the USA leaves therefore getting themselves where they want to be IN A BETTER POSITION TO BOTHER ISRAEL, AND ALL THE REST OF THE UNREST THAT IS FOMENTING ITSELF AROUND THE MIDEAST that qualifies as Israels enemies.THIS REALLY DON'T SOUND GOOD, ALL THIS FOMENTING, DOES IT?

WHAT IF THAT WERE US, AMERICA. WE’D THINK TWICE BEFORE GIVING ADVISE I BET! AND WE DON’T NEED NO FEATHER IN THIS PRESIDENT’S CAP BY SIGNING A MIDEAST PEACE TREATY. LIKE I SAID BEFORE THERE IS NO MIDEAST PEACE! AND TUNISIA OR FACE BOOK OR TWITTER DIDN’T START THIS, IT STARTED WAY BACK WITH ABRAHAM. BUT PLEASE AMERICA, LETS TRY TO GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME, AND BE ON THE WINNERS SIDE!

Waiting Zone

    Sometimes, we all try to make a difference, whether it be in our writings, in our work, aligning ourselves up with some cause, or anything else, that puts forth some effort to make a change. The important thing is that we have attempted to be, a part of the solution, a part of the answer, in 'THE TRYING ZONE' Even if we go unheeded, or unnoticed 'we tried'. That, my friends, is the best we can hope for, at times, and then there is the big one 'the waiting zone.’ A zone we have all stepped into whether we like it or not. It happens to the best of us, no one escapes, ‘THE WAITING ZONE.’  It is given to develop character.

     Even the events that are happening in Japan, have produced a stoic, 'WAIT AND SEE' attitude. Japan will prevail, this we all pray and hope for, but 'wait they will.' Working to maintain some kind of normalcy while they 'wait' for things to return to the stability they knew before. It remains a necessary part of life, 'THIS WORD CALLED WAIT.' It has it's ups and downs, trying to be a Patient Person. Patience is not a Virtue many of us possess. At least not Job like Patience.He didn't like his loss, but at least he didn't blame God for it. God replaced everything he lost, maybe not like he woulda liked, but the way a 'SOVEREIGN GOD ACTS!' AFTER ALL HE DOES NOT TAKE ORDERS FROM US, WE TAKE ORDERS FROM HIM. But he'll certainly talk to you about what you feel and won't condemn you for feeling it.

It is not something, anyone likes to do, for sure, for we are an 'Instant Society,' but 'WAIT WE MUST,' for PROGRESS IS SLOW. It will be difficult at best, to feel like one is making a difference when one goes to clean up their pea patch with so much disarray surrounding them. But that is what it takes. TO START IS 95% OF IT. The other 5% is JUST DOING IT. It is by far easier to look at it and say, 5% is easy enough to do. THIS MESS AIN'T THAT BAD. WE CAN DO IT!!!

With an Earthquake, Tsunami  and Radiation

 CHANGE HAS COME!   

    Well, today the news coverage is certainly varied. A Natural Disaster and a Massacre of Innocent Civilians, are at the forefront of it all. They say the French are going to be the first to go in to maintain a ‘no fly zone’ in Libya. That is good. 'THE WAIT IS OVER.' Something is working, and yes, it is about time, someone, somewhere decided to act. At long last, the answer comes. Why the delay? Who knows. To allow Kadhafy and his government forces to dig in deeper I guess, not to mention those poor men who died because of the delay. BUT THE IMPORTANT WORDS ARE, 'THE FRENCH STARTED IT.' THAT IS 95% OF THE, 'ODYSSEY.' THE ANSWER HAS ARRIVED. Now for the other 5%. THE  ODE, itself.

     No one is going to mention THE BELATED TIMES, now that the ACTION has begun. The unspoken ones, the un-speaking, who died trying their best, to keep the hounds of hell at bay, finally succumbed in a hard earned fight to possess freedom. They did not live to tell their story. And they say time does not  matter. We were a day late and a dollar short of settling their differences, their desire to see a new leader come to power, and allowing them to see the light of day. They are part of the legacy of the people who gave their lives, 'waiting on the answer.' They did not get to see the answer but they got to be a part of the answer, this due in part to the area of the ZONE THEY FOUND THEMSELVES IN, 'the waiting zone.' And hopefully none falls during THE ODE, but that is not being realistic. May I learn to accept the inevitable price, and may my prayers extend to all, and may peace prevail, where there was no peace.

    The National Community did not want bad things to happen anymore to the these innocent people, who simply stated desired freedom for the populace.

      So the day came. Like any other day, but 'no more waiting.' That is so important for everyone to understand. 'NO MORE WAITING.' 95% reared it's head. It was time to act and act we did, in a Group. Each Country with their own agenda for wanting this to stop, Americans, Canadians, French, Great Britain's, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Turkey, NATO even Arabs, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan, Saudi Arabia etc.

    Now we must feel better. No more trying to attempt to differentiate why, how  or who. We cannot handle every Country and it's rebellion, in this manner, each has to be considered on it's own Merit and decided accordingly. But we do see why, they all want freedom to choose. Each Country must decide for itself what it is that is needed to continue down the path toward personal freedom, and act accordingly in their attempt to make a change. We hope to give when we can, but we are not the World's Policemen attempting to tell others what to do.

But yes, we hope to bring 'healing as the World's Dr.' when we can, cause we understand. But each Country is an entity by itself. Not to be confused with another Country Libya, that is grabbing what perks they can in a land that has subdued them like a desert that refuses to allow rain drops to sit atop it's leaves. This much we know, the Rebels of Libya want to win. I don't care what they did before they became a Rebel, they have unified themselves to ouster Kadhafy. That I care about. Give them the means!

OUR MILITARY IS GRAND BECAUSE IT IS UNIFIED. Yes, We want them to win or we would not have touched their ground with one missile which cost us millions let alone many. We decided. We can't change our minds just because things don't exactly go as planned. Let me re-iterate. WE DECIDED! So did the International Community, to attempt to stop a massacre that took one 12 year old boys hand plus fingers on the other hand, AND MANY LIVES. We cannot stand by and allow this type of action to continue. We must help. The USA is part of this. The Group, The National Community has spoken. This is why it is feasible. WE CAME TO HELP WITH AS MANY PARTNERS AS WE COULD GENERATE.

TO START IS 95% OF IT. The other 5% is JUST DOING IT(That 5% don't include changing your mind about your goal.) It is by far easier to look at it and say, I CAN DO 5%. 5% is easy enough to do. THIS MESS AIN'T THAT BAD. WE CAN DO IT!!!

I say 'give the Rebels help.' Lots of it.

I don't understand half-heartedness.

It is about time we had some good news. Someone, someplace is attempting to make this so. 

whether we want it or not, sometimes the solution is thrust upon us, the best happens,
I GUESS THE 'WAITING' IS OVER,' for Libya,  
CHANGE WILL COME

Bounty

        Put a bounty on the planes!
    To get the forces of Kadhafy, to stop bombing the rebels, key towns and oil fields, one must consider giving a bounty  for each  plane delivered by the pilots........

    1. For every plane they fly into neutral cities, they are to receive 1 million dollars plus they can stay in the city they fly into protected by every means possible under an amnesty given by said Country.
    3. This defection of pilots, will be their own people. They will not need other Militaries to come in and maybe not be wanted even though they are tying to keep the blood bath down. Kadhafy don’t care what price he pays in his people being hurt, maimed and killed. Alls he’s interested in is keeping his Dictatorship, at all costs. That’s a sign of a madman.
    4. The USA, all cities, NATO and all Countries that have a reason for the downfall of Kadhafy, can put up the bounty as well. Thereby ensuring money is there to pay them with.
    5. Put out this info on the TV, internet, phone, paper and word of mouth. This will ensure Kadhafy will not let his planes fly, for fear of his pilots going AWOL and partaking of the bounty that people are trying to help them out with.
    6. Other Arab Countries cannot object to this in fact they can help with the money it takes to implement this Movement on the part of the Rebels and also it will be stated that the Rebels are Ok with this particular POA.
    7. Most of Kadhafy’s Airmen and Army,  are not loyal to him, they get paid for their jobs, and they do it out of fear of retribution if they don’t. But if we make sure, they are paid well for the price of the plane, we will not need a ‘NO FLY ZONE,” FOR NOTHING WILL BE FLYING. They will defect IF ALLOWED TO FLY.
    8. This will guarantee the Rebels of a fair fight, and with this kind of action taking place they will gain impetus to fight longer, faster and better with renewed vigor. And eventually win the un-winnable.
    9. This will also protect the Oil of the People, for if Kadhfy goes down, he will take down the Oil with him. THEREBY KEEPING THE PEOPLE POOR. For with no oil, they will have no money to buy needed items.
    10. We cannot stand by and do nothing, no more. It is time TO ACT.
    11. This will work.
    12. It means we will lose no men to a War, Kadhfy says we are responsible for intervening in, thereby making him a liar. We just need to remind him, of the fact that we have some of our best minds, working on a solution to an ugly situation.
    13. And we will come out smelling like a rose, and putting an end to the strife of Civil War.

    14. DIPLOMACY IS ALWAYS BEST, BUT WHEN, MINDS END, SHIPS, PLANES AND MILITARY MIGHT BEGINS! FORCE IS BETTER THAN INSANITY!

Libya

    Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Iran, Libya. Morocco, Algeria, Lebanon, Yeman, DjiBouti, Qatar, UAE, Oman, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Mauritania, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Greece, India, China US, this list just keeps on getting bigger and bigger, Countries where change is being brought to the forefront. Each one trying and succeeding to do their part. And yet, in some places,  change does not occur immediately! But no one who has tried to bring about change and failed to do so, should ever think the World did not notice. It did. And someday, change will come. Slowly, methodically and harmoniously, but it will come. And it will come easily. Be patient. Will the Power of the People prevail. Well, if I were a betting man, I’d say, “yes.”

And I am guilty of drawing lots of lots. Like Jonah the lot usually falls on me. To which I reply, well, ‘what in the world does that mean?’ I think it means, I’m the reason for such and such actions to befall us. Once on our way here to Many Farms, Az, we drew lots as to who was responsible for us having to move here from Oklahoma, in the first place. I didn’t want to move, but my husband got a job here. Anyway, the lot fell on me. So I ended up being the reason. Shocked me! I surely thought I was the innocent in all of it. Maybe so. I really do try hard to get it right, but I guess trying ain’t where it’s at. My reasons for actions I take seem pretty justified to me, but maybe not to God. That’s where I pray. Mostly for others, for I’m not really sure what to pray for me, other than, for forgiveness. But your welcome to pray for me, whatever you choose, however you choose, and whenever you choose. I'm game!

    But back to the oppressed peoples escaping their oppressors and finally and at last giving their leaders their just dues, because their leaders have made it oppressive on the people. When one has the majority on their side, just about anything can be accomplished. Hopefully lets hope it all turns out to be for their betterment. Most of them would certainly say so. As I’ve heard them state, ANY THING IS BETTER THAN WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO, SO DOWN WITH THEIR LEADERS.

    But what I am finding from the two(Tunisia-Egypt) that have succeeded is, they just are not sure where to go from here. It’s a ‘new beginning,’ a ‘starting over’ from ‘scratch.’ Should they go with someone they know, a very popular guy everybody likes, or one of their old ministers or an old prime minister, should they go the democratic route, and vote um in, which takes order and some sort of skeleton prototype to even accomplish that. And then the old question, how much power to allay to the Military which is supposedly keeping order in a chaotic situation. Wow, it almost makes you yearn for the good ole days. Note I said almost.

But they have faith to believe they can accomplish the impossible so I say, let um do it, let um go for it, and let us help them, as much as we can, with teachings, examples and money, since we tout the democratic process with our mouths, let us not be guilty of speaking out of the side of our mouth. Let us speak loudly and clearly, that we are opposed to oppressive regimes of any kind and we will be glad and happy to help when help is needed. But we will and cannot overdraw our accounts and become troublesome in their process of rebuilding their Country. Makes our leaning toward the right thing, slightly tougher on us to accomplish but it can be done and must be done. We have touted the right thing to do, now let us do the right thing and ‘help out’ as much as possible and still keep our economy strong and stable, for it would help no one, if we were to come apart at the seams as well. We don’t want to become Dr No Good, and heal only our patients. We need to be apart of the health process as well. We need to heal also! We may not be the World's Police but yes, I think we're the World's Dr.

    Well, lets go for it! Aah yes, with so many Countries jumping on the bad leader bandwagon, or having  general discontent, for some reason, what’s a man to do? This makes it slightly more difficult, to say the least. How can we help so many?  Well, unless the Country abounds in oil, my point of view is, we don’t. Unless it’s Saudi, of course. Well, come on, I'm not silly, lot's of oil! But that's another time another view!

Libya abounds in oil, this affects our Country, so we should have a piece of the action to parlay into our economical health. Good ole greed, comes alive so we want to be on the side of the winner. Course considering, the Mental State of the Leader who won’t let go, we know who’s side we are on. Not on the Mad Dog of the Mental East’s side. We have an aversion to a man who has already acted like a terrorist, talked like a terrorist, and is a terrorist to his very own people. He keeps the flock by fearsome techniques’. Most people do not respect the man, they fear him. But now for once in their lifetime, they have seen how it was done by Tunisia and Egypt so they are emboldened with a new gold avenue of answers, the PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN. They want what these people have, the FREEDOM TO CHOOSE THEIR LEADER.

And considering the upheavals, in Tunisia & Egypt it makes me wonder how America could be caught with diplomatic Americans in Libya, or any Americans, for that matter. Did they not consider they should get out before the fracas, then we could have been more persuasive in our dealings from the git go and not have to be concerned about them. We surely have been slow reacting, at the start line, but maybe we can make up the speed, in convincing them we mean business. It is not us against them leaders, but them against us.For they know what we stand for. We do not stand for the shallow talk of a dictator, who cannot stand behind his word. We will prevail. Good always prevails over evil.

    So yes, we need to back them up. Especially since we are not actually backing Gadhafi. We have been saying lately, HE MUST LEAVE. Well, I saw on TV, the Secretary of State has been, saying it, anyway. Like that is going to make him hurry his departure. No way! He does fear us! Now our 3 ships heading toward him, makes him tremble. But I figure he will leave when he decides. After all, he's got a 'group' backing him, even if it's a bought one.
Most mad men, think their brains are trustworthy enough to call the shots. His mind is missing a synapse or two, from what I can tell. When he finally realizes the futility of it all, I would not want to be around at that moment in time, for then he is indeed a danger, to himself and others, for he has nothing to lose. He has already lost the admiration of a people whom he thought was loyal to him. When he wakes up and realizes no one is really loyal to him, including his relatives and the few bought employees he has surrounding him, then HE WILL BE DANGEROUS. His forces are still lying to themselves. They will awaken to the Truth as well. These people are telling him exactly what he wants to hear, THIS TOO SHALL PASS. The only thing is this TRUTH IS SELF EVIDENT, THIS INDEED TOO SHALL PASS, yes, it will, but it will not lead to everything going back to the normal state of being as he hopes for. IT WILL BRING CHANGE, AND THIS CHANGE INCLUDES HIM ABDICATING THE THRONE OF HIS LEADERSHIP OF LIBYA, or it being taken out of his grasping hand. But he is so ingrained with the idea that he and Libya are one, that he is indeed going to be full of TROUBLE TO HIS PEOPLE. How or what this entails, is anyone’s guess, but he will not ever willingly give up what he believes is his, so he will more than likely try to take as many of the Protesters with him. His army is foolish. It is not a good idea to be close to a man, who's cog is slipping, no matter whose people you are. I think I would try to keep my distance. May his Protesters do the same. Let his Army of Libya grow up. They need to run the other direction also. A mad man don't need anybody around to be a mad man! A mad man has no loyalty! A mad man has no sense he is full of nonsense! A mad man is full of himself and self is who he thinks of.

    Now for why we need to jump in at their time of need. Because, it will help to have us there for moral support. Because we have a high stake in the oil reserves that are sold to us. We need Libya’s oil, that is understated. They have oil. We need to keep the bid for it at the forefront of the Protesters minds. They need to know we have a stake in the outcome of the upheaval in their Country.But I am certain they already know this.

This said, we really need to stress that the people are our top priority over oil, any day of the week. We desire for the people to prevail against a man, who has willingly covered some of the Protesters in blood even to the point of finality of some of their lives. This ought not be, but it is proof of the extreme extent that the man is willing to go to, to get what he wants in spite of public opinion being against him loud and clear to a watching world.

Yes, I think it is just a matter of time, till he falls, but does there come a time, when he is pushed? I think so. He can probably hole up for some time while he wear’s his Protesters down. This is not a good idea. He is not to be given the upper hand, calling all the shots, for this will just feed his ego, which is big enough as is. He needs to be squeezed ever so gently into relinquishing his Throne. Does his people do this to him? I think so. They are going to have to deal with a man, that knows no sensibility. Anything goes. He is going to have to be convinced he has won, then he will depart his fraidy hole. Then you can deal with the enemy you can see. For if one cannot see him, one cannot defeat him.

My lot I drew, concerning this, says, he will have to be removed. By whom, how, when, who knows! But he has already said, he is not giving up Libya. Knowing this, it is easier to develop a POA.

THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE AN EASY TASK. BUT YOU ALREADY KNEW THIS!

    Now, as for the rest of the Countries, in my beginning paragraph, I think we will see a multitude of problems arise from every area since they are so diverse a population, and we cannot expect any of them to become a prototype, for us. We will have to assess the situation in each circumstance and hope for the best possible outcome. The best possible scenario, is that, all of them do not break out at the same time.  Having them come one at a time, gives us all time to assimilate the dangers each peoples will have to face, concerning their leader who will not go easily, or those leaders who have the foresight, not to go at all, but let none of them ignore the will of the people. That locale is fraught with danger. Or just having problems on board that will not go away, these Countries need to be attempting to solve them in a manner that is pleasing to all constituents. Change in Leadership is not always, the answer, but it is always going to happen to the disgruntled majority.With some change comes only through Civil War, since some Countries are full of different Minorities. Change in these cases is not always pleasant nor does it guarantee the results are better for all involved. We cannot assume that all cases of Change bring about a more loving relationship with America, but for that we can hope, our enemies do not arrive at the forefront of any new movement. But with things happening so fast, dealing with all of these Countries is like trying to play 'pick um up sticks,' without moving another one. It becomes rather difficult at best. But our best we do, at all times, even in game playing.
But for most of these Countries, Change is not a game, it has a life force all it's own, and it is hard to take it seriously when it is happening everywhere in Africa and the Middle East. IT' BY FAR EASIER TO TAKE A FEW CHANGES SERIOUSLY, THAN ALL. THAT BOGGLES THE MIND. But nonetheless, IT IS HAPPENING, and progress can not be stopped. So I guess, I'll get out of the 'game mode.' THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Only can each Country's leader decide what is best for their people. If people is what you want to please, not yourself. Sometimes it is best to allow the will of the people to prevail. Sometimes, it may be that the leaders get wise enough to begin working with the people and giving them what they have needed for some long time, an input into the daily workings of their leaders and governments, simply put a Voice. No peoples should be relegated to second hand servants of an outdated Monarchy, but should feel Freedom's Tentacles, Flow like a  River of Lava, Lighting the Landscape, for all to behold. Hopefully we can give moral support no matter who or what is happening, if we think they have a legal leg to stand on. We are not supporting insurrection for the sake of insurrection. That is not wise. You may end up with some real Dorks trying to lead, making it worse than before. Choose your battles!

We are not supporting, jumping in and lending our support to every Country and people’s who look like they can use it. These are autocratic Countries and they deserve the right to have the people solve the problems as best as they know how. We are not the World’s Policeman. We don’t always have answers to our own problems, but we have the best minds working on them at any given moment. We do have suggestions that we have learned as we have come along in our democratic process. And it is wise to heed some of them if you want and need success in your government. We been there, done that. But we do have a few things we are for.

     We do have THINGS WE SUPPORT! We do support RIGHT! We do support RIGHT TO LIFE! We do support CIVIL RIGHTS! We do support LOVE FOR ONE’S COUNTRY! We do support the PEOPLE’S VOICE WHO SPEAK WITH ONE ACCORD!
We do support HELPING ONE ANOTHER!
We do support Israel!

We do support LOVE OF GOD! 

ps.With leaders we do like, there is still change on the horizon coming in their Countries. This happening affects us in the entire region of the Middle East. Whose side do we chose then, the people's or the leaders? That could be difficult ie Oman. 
Most importantly of all, being that we are in the Middle East, all people's know we side with Israel no matter what the conflict is or where the conflict is or when the conflict is.......This could have an affect from Countries that do not like Israel. If we try to help pro or con, we can open a can of worms for those peoples we care deeply for. Even in helping Libya, we could have retaliations coming in from horizons that have nothing whatsoever to do with that particular region. But it very well could come from places we are not expecting strife to come from in that area. But nonetheless

Too bad so sad, we believe God, The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. - Hebrews 13:6
We will help the people affected in Libya, from a Chaotic Leader, with the overview of helping Israel at the same time.  We do not abandon our Old Friends just because we've picked up a few new ones along the way!
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, . . . “ plans to give you hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11
