President Obama has been accused of micromanaging the US military.

Ever since Cory Gardner jumped in to the US Senate race he chose to leave his cronies behind and find mainstream America. He still is unable to answer questions that actually requires a solid understanding of the issue.

President Obama has come out with his request for authorization to war. He made his case. He didn't spoon feed Congress because he actually expects Congress to know what is happening in the world. I suppose their demand for fund raising doesn't leave much room for understanding what they are legislating. As that is the condition of Congress, they need to pass the legislation as written by the President. The only other valid path than authorization is complete withdrawal.

Putting the words, "We are to win," is not a strategy either. It is obvious Senator Garner needs to do his homework since he has no idea how to address the speech by the President. The Speaker doesn't either. 

The Middle East isn't as complicated as some would like to make it; but, it needs attention to detail and response from governing bodies to protect their sovereignty. 

The problem in enlisting commentary from the media or Congress is that they do not accept the FACT the USA military is muscle bound and that there are two wars whereby the deaths of innocent people have been astronomical. The USA military doesn't accept the fact they can't simply launch an aggressive campaign and kill people. That same aggression has closed the US Embassy in Yemen. Reflect on that awhile.

Figure it out yet?

The USA military destabilized the government in Yemen. Where has that happened before in recent history?

These are Third World countries with multiple ethnicities and their governments have a toe hold on power. What is the USA's military response? It arrives and starts annihilating people. What does anyone expect to happen? I suppose the average Yemeni takes it on the chin in their Lazy Boy to watch Monday Night Football, right?

These people will respond to USA violence. I guarantee you The West won't like what happens next. The question is what happens to the safety of Western nations when the USA military carries out this so called war on terror? The USA military is the problem. 

I tell you what. The USA military should be taking humanitarian aid to the people of Yemen, not USAID. Maybe then the people will forgive the USA and relate to generosity which is one of the pillars of Islam. The USA military doesn't FIRST live with the people, they only seek to kill the perceived enemy. The USA military has to regroup and stop crashing drones in Iran.

The Yemeni people only understand there are planes that come in the skies and people die. The first outcome the USA military has to accomplish is to know the people in any country accept their leadership to the point where a coup is not an answer sought as a remedy to people dropping in the street from drones.

And. Oh. By the way. Don't destroy mosques or close newspapers belonging to people who are still learning the impacts of communication over killing and blowing up infrastructure. 

AND THE SHI'ITES are not the enemy just because Iran removed the Shah when Iranians were dying in the streets from starvation. And then the USA doesn't communicate with Tehran for decades. 

The USA military needs to consider dropping humanitarian aid into these countries with messages that will mean something to them. We did that in Afghanistan and the people were fine with it. It was an attempt by the USA to COMMUNICATE it's purpose in coming into their country. Try enlisting the people toward a peaceful purpose when they understand who the military is seeking to carry out defense of our borders. The people and their well being has to be paramount to any Western defense strategy. This is not hand holding, it is about bringing First World defense to a Third World country to stabilize the region. Get them to understand completely why the alarming events occur and why their government is blameless and a good government on an international stage. 

Get it right, please. We are attempting to secure their country as well as ours. Their boots on the ground are even more important than our boots on their ground. Their military will protect the country, define it's borders with hopes to stabilize their day to day lives. The people need to listen to their leaders while carrying out pilgrimages and economics.

Yemen is a tough one. There was boy killed without reason because he called his father frequently during the day. There is a lot of pain over such attacks. The people of this region have to accept governance rather than surviving by the gun.

Congressman Cory Gardner, (click here) who has been hammered for his position on social issues ever since he jumped into the U.S. Senate race, dropped a political bombshell Friday with his revelation that he was wrong to have supported previous personhood efforts.
He said that after learning more about the measures, which would have had the impact of outlawing abortion, he realized the proposals also could ban certain forms of contraception, a prohibition he does not support.
"This was a bad idea driven by good intentions," he told The Denver Post. "I was not right. I can't support personhood now. I can't support personhood going forward. To do it again would be a mistake."...
