A Bloody Endless Peace

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist and Patriot.

Take as many bleeding heart liberals as you can find, jam them in a room and let them come up with a two state solution that would be workable.

Others winners of the Nobel Peace Prize, Arafat, Jimmy Carter and even Barack Benghazi tried and failed.  Of course results aren’t important among liberals, it’s the effort that counts. 

Ignorance is a particular strength of peacemakers. They don’t want reasons why it can’t happen. Nor do they want to hear that the best kind of peace with people whose religion tells them that they will go to heaven if they die while cutting your throat is the heavily armed peace of cold iron and steel.

War is their peace and ignorance is their strength.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it, I’m J.C. and I approve this message.

“War is peace,” entered our cultural vocabulary some sixty-four years ago. Around the same time that Orwell’s masterpiece was being printed up, an armistice was being negotiated between Israel and the Arab invading armies. That armistice began the long peaceful war or the warring peace.

 

 

The entire charade did not properly enter the realm of the Orwellian until the peace process began. The peace process between Israel and the terrorist militias funded by the countries of those invading armies has gone on for longer than most actual wars. It has also taken more lives than most actual wars.

War has an endpoint. Peace does not. A peace in which you are constantly at war can go on forever because while the enthusiasts of war eventually exhaust their patriotism, the enthusiasts of peace never give up on their peacemaking.

Warmongers may stop after a few thousand dead, but Peacemongers will pirouette over a million corpses.

As you read this, Obama is probably stumbling through some ceremony or speech in Israel. The speeches all say the usual things, but there really is only one purpose to the visit. There really ever only is one purpose to these visits. The revisiting of the endless peace war.

Two decades after the peace process has failed in every way imaginable. Two decades after cemeteries on both sides are full of the casualties of peace. Two decades which have created two abortive Palestinian states at war with one another and with Israel.

Two decades later, it’s still time for peace. (Entire article below)

Shabaab releases photos of French commando captured in failed rescue mission

Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist, Oath Keeper and Patriot.

It‘s time that the delusional in the current administration come to terms with a fact. 

The West is not in a war against terror or terrorism, Islamic Jihadists declared war on the west with the hijacking of planes on 9-11-01

American’s don’t cave and they don’t quit in spite of wimps on the left that were raising the white flag 5 years ago.

This is  a group of wars now that Obama has bungled his way into making Islam stronger through the Muslim Brotherhood.  In the end they will not prevail

Shabaab has released photographs of a French commando who was captured during a failed raid to free a hostage late last week. The French commando, who was initially reported as captured, died in Shabaab custody, the al Qaeda affiliate said. Shabaab also said it has “reached a unanimous verdict on the fate” of Denis Allex, the French intelligence operative who has been in custody since the summer of 2009, but has not disclosed what will be done with him.

French commandos attempted to free Allex, who they believed was being held at a safe house in Bula-Marer, a town under Shabaab control. Two French commandos and 17 Shabaab fighters are reported to have been killed; Shabaab has claimed that only two of its fighters and numerous civilians were killed during the the French operations.

Shabaab released three photographs of the commando as well as a photograph of captured weapons along with an official statement on its Twitter site, @HSMPress (Harakat Al-Shabaab Al Mujahideen Press Office). The terror group claimed the Frenchman pictured was the “the French commander leading the operation.” The rank of the commando who was captured has not been confirmed by French officials.

Catch-22 Paradigm in Afghanistan Consequences on Pakistan

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist, Oath Keeper and Patriot.

An interesting editorial written by Amarah Rabini in which one must wonder what his real credential are? A Google search revealed absolutely nothing substantive.

“Therefore, Afghanistan war is well into its fourth decade with a pointless position.”  The Afghan government is corrupt, the Taliban will move in to till coalition troops vacuum  once the U.S. finally cuts and runs.  

Who will keep Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal in the hands of Pakistan and not the Taliban?

“As, U.S.A had never been justified the military intervention in Iraq.”  He said what?  

Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, evidenced by his use of chemical weapons on his own people, the Kurds.

Estimates of the Shiite death toll in the 1991 rebellion range from 20,000 to 100,000 Iraqi citizens. Al-Majeed was convicted of playing a key part in the slaughter during the revolt in southern Iraq that followed the 1991 Persian Gulf War. Photo: UPI

500 metric tons of low-grade uranium were found the first week of the war in Iraq and it took nearly 7 years to safely deliver this material to Canada. 

Photo:-AP Removal of low grade uranium from Iraq, found the first week of the war.

The U.S. military spent $70 million ensuring the safe transportation of 550 metric tons of the uranium from Iraq to Canada, said Pentagon spokesman Brian Whitman.

The shipment, which until recently was kept secret, involved a U.S. truck convoy, 37 cargo flights out of Baghdad to a transitional location, and then a transoceanic voyage on board a U.S.-government-owned ship designed to carry troops to a war zone, he said.

(Was it kept secret or did the U.S. Media determine not to tell us about it at it would have been in direct conflict with their mantra, ” Bush lied, people died?)

It would be fruitless to continue to go on debunking the authors musings.  It’s clear his is not happy with the West’s presence in Afghanistan.

Pakistan’s prime minister made a statement regarding post U.S withdrawal scenario that, Pakistan has suffered a lot due to U.S-Afghanistan war and peace has to establish on western boarders. At national and international level Pakistan assumes responsibility for promoting a new reconciliation and initiatives among all concerned, with the current U.S Afghanistan war. 

In the period immediately after 9/11, Pakistan is the only neighboring country who abundant on-the-ground experienced turmoil’s insurgencies and deficits at all levels. However, expatriates are still burdening the economic and security sectors.

Across the border war made Pakistan’s situation more chaotic than ever before and drone attacks are playing key role in order to destabilizing war against terrorism. Ruthless civil war is an emerging strife as a catalyst in Afghanistan and becomes a ‘volcanic brunt’ for Pakistan. Therefore, Afghanistan war is well into its fourth decade with a pointless position. (Complete article below)

Obama’s Nightmare: All out war among all the players in the Middle East

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist and Patriot.

As Columnist Thomas Freidman questions below, will it be on Obama’s watch that the entire Middle East erupts in one giant sound and light show of civil wars, states collapsing and refugee dislocations, as the keystone of the entire region?

An excellent case can be made that WW III started when planes were flown into the twin towers on 9-11 and should this become reality it will be the beginning of WW IV.

While American officials are tantalized by the idea of flipping Syria from the Iranian to the Western camp by toppling Assad this is unlikely to happen.

How with the conflict with Syria end? Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has assumed personal command of the military and in spite of numerous signs that his grip of power has loosened significantly, he has vowed to fight to the deathto remain in control of the country.

Assad’s regime is being propped up by both Iran and Russia while the rebels are backed by the West and various Gulf states, which guarantees that the two sides will have the confidence to fight for every inch for the foreseeable future.

At this time with the United States run by an incompetent, there is little likelihood of any U.S. involvement.

Just as Iranian dissidents rose up to object to the fraudulent election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, aka “The Muslim Midget,” Obama will sit on his hands, when he isn’t shooting hoops, watching ESPN or on vacation.

The scandal engulfing two of our top military and intelligence officers could not be coming at a worse time: the Middle East has never been more unstable and closer to multiple, interconnected explosions.

Virtually every American president since Dwight Eisenhower has had a Middle Eastern country that brought him grief. For Ike, it was Lebanon’s civil war and Israel’s Sinai invasion.

For Lyndon Johnson, it was the 1967 Six-Day War. For Nixon, it was the 1973 war. For Carter, it was the Iranian Revolution. (complete article below)

Iraq Violence Surges Amid Corruption As U.S. Troops Leave

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist and Patriot.

Despite the chump’s frequent election campaign rhetoric, and  Harry Reid’s refusal to continue funding for troops in Iraq, they remain  while more violence ensues.

They remain in small numbers, and likely will indefinitely.

Fighting a war with anti-war progressives and their idiotic rules of engagement has proved to be a complete failure.

Iraq has endured “a troubled year evidenced by increasing official corruption, resurgent violence” and apprehension about the war in Syria since the last American troops departed, according to an assessment by a U.S. special inspector general.

Violence during the last quarter “rose to levels not seen for more than two years,” with at least 854 Iraqi citizens killed and more than 1,640 wounded in attacks — 1,048 casualties in September alone, the bloodiest month since 2010, Stuart Bowen, the special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction, said today in his quarterly report.

Even in the face of such “daunting challenges,” Iraq’s economy improved, with record electricity production and the “highest crude oil output since 1990,” at more than 3 million barrels a day, according to Bowen. (more below)

Helping Israel Defend Itself With Nuclear Armed Submarines Is Germany’s Duty

Comment by Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist and Patriot.

Will Israel use nukes on Iran?  Doubtfully, the mere presence of such capability will do more than Obama’s failed diplomacy.

All parties involved understand how President Ronald W. Reagan brought down the U.S.S.R. without firing a shot.  That would be all parties with the exception of Obama who is no student of United States History.

Prime Minister Netanyahu understands he cannot and thus will not depend on U.S. Foreign Policy led by Barack Hussein Obama. 

Time and again he has left Bi Bi at the alter in his failed attempt to broker a two state solution.  Perhaps he was awarded his Nobel Peace Prize prematurely?

Der Spiegel Online International

SPIEGEL’s cover story about the sale of German-built submarines to Israel, which were then equipped with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles, has provoked a storm of debate in Germany and internationally.

An Israeli Dolphin-Class submarine in the Mediterranean off the coast of Tel Aviv. The submarines are ultra-modern and have a cruising range of 4,500 nautical miles. Germany has delivered three of the subs already and Israel has ordered three more.

 

Opposition parties in Germany are demanding answers about the sale of nuclear-capable submarines to Israel, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that the vessels are “very important” for his country’s security. Media commentators argue that Germany has a historical duty to support the Jewish state.

According to extensive research carried out by SPIEGEL, Israel is equipping submarines built in the northern German city of Kiel and partly paid for by the German government with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles. Three Dolphin-class submarines have already been delivered to Israel, and three more will be delivered by 2017. The contract for the sixth submarine was signed only recently. Complete article below.
