The Culture of Fear Lives.
911 was 15 years ago this September. The Bushes are still fighting the war. This so called war breaks the record books in the length of any war the USA has fought to protect it's sovereignty. Al Qaeda and Daesh are not a threat to our sovereignty. They might be a threat to Europe's, but, then we are NATO and we won't let it happen.
But, this?
When do the wars stop? Never? 14 years, nearly one generation, and the USA is still engaged in war in the middle east. This is pathetic.
All the Neocons are out rounding up all kinds of information to scare the wits out of everyone; like the fact Jordan has it's limit of protecting refugees. A full 25% of Jordan's national budget goes to serving the refugees in the country. Jordan has rightfully closed it's borders. To prove how generous the Jordanians are; when the first Syrians started to arrive, before the borders were closed, the Jordanians took the refugees into their homes. They knew the refugee camps were full and it didn't matter they took them into their homes. So, the 25% is probably more like 30% when considering the expense private homeowners experience.
A Jordanian General stated in a meeting of a far right organization, "Don't send money. Money is not what is needed. Don't send F-16s or other military armament. We need to settle the unrest and allow the middle east to return peace." That, of course, means war, right? Not necessarily. War only creates more dead people and the more dead people, the more war goes on in the middle east. That is a fact.
There was another representative from Sri Lanka talking about an assassination. Does anyone know how many people have been assassinated in Sri Lanka? They have Libya beat.
I just think it is time to move off the subject of "The First Job of the President" to the Second Job and the Third Job and the Fourth Job and all the other problems the USA has that are ignored because war fills the airwaves of network news.
Enough. No more Selective Service.
Troops out now!
