World Stability
The world is semi stable due to the fact that no two very rabid opposing religions have got Nuclear power before at the same time. Well, it is happening now and if any one can push the button religious fanatics can. It is only a matter of time before both Israel and Iran push the button. Israel will drop a bomb on Iran first, for sure. The only question is, how many will be dropped after the first one flies. America has no control over this, at all. We can do nothing about it, except watch it unfold.
We got a hint last week about Israel’s intent and how they are as bad as what they claim to be against. Up to now, they have only killed 20 Palestinians for every one Israeli killed. The more they feel threatened the worse they could become. We gave them their military might and showed them how to use it. Should we be so naive as to not expect them to use it?
Iran seems to be our next Terrorist goal. This could be a longer war. Iraq fought Iran using our technology and stopped. You would think we would learn a lesson. I doubt it.
Just remember how close Pakistan is to losing control to the Taliban and you’ll soon see a dangerous condition develop real fast on the Indian–Pakistan border. I’m not sure if India is up to the task of standing up to the Taliban, but we may out sooner than later. There again, religion is the cause.
Make no mistake about it, if the world becomes an open graveyard again, religion will be the cause of it all. Very few wars are not religiously inclined when all is said and done. When President Bush went to war with Iraq, he used the axis of evil words to do so. Axis of evil is a religious term. He said he trusted his conscience to guide him. Bush is a born again Christian so guess what conscience guided him to war, his religious one, that’s for sure. Of course, oil profits from the war did not hurt his family fortune any. That means he was completely justified in what he was doing as far as he was concerned. I’ll bet you he sleeps like a baby at night. Doesn’t the end always justify the means in any religious conflict? In any religious conflict, it is always the barbarians (pagans) against the righteous. The righteous become indignant and have to squash the pagans, and in so doing they lead them to the light (their version of God). In our case, the usual drivel is we are making the world safe for democracy and that is what makes us morally right when we kill thousands of people in the name of being the world’s policeman.
As the Muslims take hold in Africa, more blood will be shed than ever before because now you have the tribal feuds plus the religion working against the African people. That is a real bad situation. Tribes always fight over territory and the water it takes to grow crops and when you add to that the power of religion to create turmoil, you really have the beginnings of something ill.
The Muslims are taking hold now in Denmark, Sweden, and Iceland, which are for the most part, pacifist countries, until now, that is. Violence is erupting in those countries and no one knows what to do about it. Muslim terrorists just roll over pacifists and don’t even notice.
The Middle East in particular has a code that everyone there follows, which is, be the biggest and baddest cat on the block because that is only way you get respect. Israel understands this and so do the Muslims. I don’t think Obama does, but Bush did.
Obama wanted to negotiate with the Republicans to get the other side’s point of view, instead of just pushing through what he wanted in the first place with his 60 vote majority. Now that majority is gone and he will get nothing for all his efforts.
He is beginning to come around in both the Middle East and with the Congress, but it may be too little too late for him with Congress. The jury is still out in the Middle East.
America is without a doubt he largest Military power in the world and yet we have now become irrelevant because the face of war is the streets or the jungles. We still fight wars as we did in the war to end all wars (WW1). We have all this new technology, but it doesn’t do us any good because religious fanatics want to die for the glory of their god. What can we do to give them pause? Anything we do now will make them martyrs for their cause, which is religious, so it must be just, by definition.
In a peaceful Iraqi family of 8, all it takes is one boy or girl paying more attention to their peers than to their parents to call that family Al Qaida. In other words, one bad egg spoils the lot. In this world as it is now, boys and girls learn most of their training for the real world from peers. Maybe this has always been the case, I don’t know. I know my parents never taught me much that I couldn’t learn for myself, better and faster. I didn’t learn from peers or parents, I read a lot. How can I expect kids to change when the parents don’t?
Both Iraq & Afghanistan have pseudo Democracies that we helped put in place in a place where Democracy is not wanted by the most powerful classes of people in those countries (Al Qaida or Taliban). If the decent people of Iraq & Afghanistan wanted Democracy bad enough to fight for it themselves; like the Americans fought a civil war to end slavery, then it is obvious to me, the casual observer, that the peaceful people of both countries will be overrun until they have had enough. It is quite evident that now is not the time since both Al Qaida & Taliban are growing in numbers and violent crimes.
It is obvious to me that when we get tired, as a nation of fighting a war where we have no business, except oil and poppies, we will leave, like we did from Vietnam and the stronger will overcome the weaker and things will go back to being what they were before, a religion based Muslim Cleric government. How long will it take us to learn is another matter? If the Sunnis and the Kurds don’t like the Shiites having all the oil, they can go to war or shut up and be poor, like they were before.
As far as we are concerned, we will always find different ways to kill young Americans in a world gone mad. One would hope that once we do bring the services home, at least we could stop awhile and rebuild our infrastructure and start a youth campaign to clean up America before we go on the warpath again. Naive, aren’t I.
In most of the world, we are thought of with ill will for no good reason. I would issue a proclamation to the world that if any influence is shown to be true involving a killing of an American citizen on American soil that is cause for America to destroy the largest building in the country that was responsible for the death. Put our bombs and technology to use where, at least if we are hated, we will be hated for a reason. There would be no reason for us to lack any sleep over killing a building that we gave notice we were going to destroy. If the terrorist country wants to put people in the building just to hate us more then that country would be willing to put their people at risk. Of course the country would say that it is not responsible for some nutcase going off and killing Americans and hate us for killing their prized building, but it’s about time the world learned that what you don’t know in this world does have consequences, sometimes deadly ones.
