The Bashan Bull King (Poetic Prose)


The Bashan
Bull King

((Poetic Prose) (with notes))

.

It happened right down in the Bashan Valley ((in what is now known as the Golan Heights, in Israel, once Syria) (about 1400 BC)), close in front of what is called the Wheel of the Giants, also known as, Stone Heap of the Wildcat (a kind of shrine, temple, astrological site, for the Rephaim Giant Cult of old), you could see King Og (( jababirat )(whose bed was cast in iron)), and Ohaho ((one of the two-hundred Angelic Renegades, enemies of the Most High) (who had left his first abode—before the Great Flood, to cohabitate with the loveliest of earthly women)) snarled at each other, and cursed one another like two Bashan Bulls, on the Bashan Plateau. And when Ohaho charged King Og, the Iron Giant of old, thirteen feet tall (son to Azaz’el the renegade archangel, who had hung onto Noah’s Great Ark, during those far-off trying days above those masculine waters, that obliterated mostly all that dwelled above the earth), three-forth superhuman—of immense weight (his waist four-feet wide), he swung back firmly like a wildcat when the wind hits its face, his legs held in a firm stance, apart, the heavy iron mallet in one hand, a double-edged sword in the other, both crisscrossing following his zigzagging curve in front—as he stepped forward, then he cursed Ohaho, threw the mallet at him, wounded his thigh, broke his balance, as it flopped to the ground, then King Og, swung forward from his charge his feet heavy and sturdy, the heavy sword curving in the wind, and with each swing, each forward thrust, the circling crowd of Rephaim demonic type accursed Giants, roared mercilessly as Ohaho stepped back.
When he started this devastating rush—it was all in one ongoing motion, like a bull charging, looking straight in front of Ohaho, hating with anger, and thirsty for submission. He dropped his sword, picked up his mallet and sighted with the same movement, the side of his temple, and called to the renegade, “Ohaho, Ohaho!” and Ohaho—regaining his equilibrium, charged and just for a moment they became solitary: they become one, and then it was over. King Og was still standing straight with the iron-end of the mullet firmly by his side, griped in one mighty fist, an inch away from Ohaho’s temple. King Og, his other hand raised to the crowd, he had defeated his foe for Kingship of the Rephaim Cult, in the Bashan Bull Valley Plateau, once more. The crowd roared for more blood, and then looking straight down at Ohaho, his legs going into spasms, he dragged him around by the hair—to show his conquest, then, ostracized him from the Bashan Valley— complete.

The King’s smile inflaming, and all that watched dignified and glorious in admiration, entirely filled with awe and fear, forever their pious king of the Bashan Plains (they murmured and whispered among themselves) — personified the king in mysticism. And these Rephaim Giants of old, as tall as cedars and strong as oaks (with their king seventy-generations older), souls of pleasure, they lifted him up, up onto their shoulders and they took him, and like a whirlwind, paraded him around the great stone structure, of 42,000-tons of stones—boulders as round as large oaks, they marched, around this enclosure, within its four circles, to the tumulus, the summit of the stone heap, and like light and thunder, for an ultimate end to the parade, lifted him up as if unto the heavens for the Almighty to see, as if he was the setting of the sun, the righteous one: as if he did not defile, oppress all the children of the people from the earth: where nations had once worshiped him before the great deluge; and a great darkness befell the valley just then, and out of the darkness cautiously came a storm to be—Joshua and his armies.




Note 1: in the book of Deuteronomy 3:11, we see King Og’s bed, monarch of the trans-Jordanian kingdom of Bashan, “Only Og, King of Bashan was left of the Rephaites (Rephaim Giants). His bed was made of Iron and was more than thirteen-feet long and six-feet wide” Also, ancient writings indicate there would be a great battle to come where King Sihon of Heshbon, and King Og of Bashan would war against the Israelites—King Og, would be the only survivor.

Note 2: At one time, iron was as precious as ivory is today, thus the writer of Deuteronomy, felt it necessary to make a point of this, by making a remark on the subject of King Og’s bed.

Note 3: Bashan once contained some "sixty walled cities" with great bars and gates and many un-walled towns, had capitols at Ashtaroth and Edrei in the region of Argob.

Note: The land of Bashan was famous for its prized cattle and oak groves. Lions also once roamed the area in ancient times.

"The Amorite" the giants within this area were as high as cedars and whose strength was like the oaks, dominated this area. Amos 2:9

Octopus Waters (Poem)

Octopus Waters


And he who loves must swim in Octopus Waters.
And he, who is hiding, should stay out of the waters.
The deeper you go there is no light, just a black
And blazing watery abyss
I could tell you how it is at the bottom
All who have loved and lost and keep loving, can.
I could tell you because I’ve been there.
Back then, until today I could tell you,
Because, I have been there…!
Nothing grows like on the moon, just darkness.
And the more you have loved, the darker it grows.
And still I choose to love and live
And swim in Octopus Waters.
God recognized me, woke me in the morning,
And then I came up for air, remote—
Ready to leap again, like a jackrabbit
Into those Octopus Waters,
Truly this had to be the final straw
And then we made a home
(And you can guess where)!

Obama's World for America (Letter: 2)

Obama’s World for America
The Obama Syndrome

Everyone is on a high with President Obama, because he is the thing that will bring America if not the world change. I think the world is more in love with him than America to be frank, and they should be, he is what they want. With Bush, who made some big mistakes, made some good decisions also? Only two days in office and from what I see Obama is clueless, if not directionless. We don’t need miracles, we need sound judgment.
In less than 48-hours here are the decisions he is making, and planning. The planning part is more conjecture at this moment, but from what has said and he didn’t say, this might be pretty close to the truth.
First, he is going to release the prisoners at the Cuban, prison (Guantanamo) United States military facility, the one they just built a $500-million dollar addition to. Furthermore, he doesn’t even know where he is going to put them, great planning, how about mainstream America? Where else? I hope not in my backyard though, perhaps his. The point being, you have terrorists there, and no one wants them here, these terrorists want rights, not responsibilities, but rights, perhaps the ones doing all the complaining, from Europe over to Mexico and down to South America and Asia, should take them in, house and feed them, send out the welcoming wagon (but on that subject they are silent like mice). There are no takers, just complainers. I understand, it makes America look bad, but perhaps we are a little hasty here, I mean, do we have to have them looking through our kitchen windows to make America look pretty to the rest of the world, this is dangerous, and when some American house wife gets stabbed to death by one of these fellows, then what?
The president needs to find a better solution, not one the World wants, but the American Citizen wants, and I say citizen, because the president of America works for us, not us for him; we sign his pay check.
Having said that let me address the abortion clause he is in the process of signing. There are not many Americans I know that want to pay for a strangers abortion counselling, or abortion per se, but Obama doesn’t see it that way, so he is going to force feed us, like a baby, that neither is here or there, he will make some people happy by doing that, just as many mad. But the problem is, as it has always been, he kept it a secret until now, you know what I am talking about, those little deletions, generalizations, and distortions, we used to call them little white lies, because you didn’t really lie, you just fibbed. How many more will pop up soon?
Let’s go on here. I seem to be full of beans today writing all this on his second day in office, but he’s been a busy president these last few days, so what can I say.
On top of the one-trillion dollars America is in debt for, he is going to put $825-billion dollars on that, trying to kick start a dead lion. It is better to be a live dog than a dead lion. That is about 16% of our annual GNP, this is not good. The Monopoly Game money will be worth more than our dollar soon, with that kind of forecasting of spending just brings the world into a fright. And let’s hope, China and Japan, and Europe don’t call in our debt, god help us all then, we’ll have to all move to Peru, their money is a much higher value than the dollar at this moment.
Next, he is implying to overhaul our immigration, this may be another thorn in America’s side. If he is thinking, and I think he is implying, about opening the floodgates for Mexico, and Asia, and the rest of the world, I’d send the Statue of Liberty back to France, it is too high a price to pay. The Statue of Liberty reads, and perhaps he should read the saying on it, and I shall paraphrase, it’s been a while since I been out there, “…for the despaired…” not for the unemployed. In any other country, and I have been in 60, you do not demand citizenship because your government is to lazy to find a job for you, they don’t want you there if you do not have money in the bank. We could learn from them.

Last but not least, now what do I expect in the near future? One thing I think is that the United Nations will want the United States to bend their knees a little more, I mean we give them $20-billion already, but they’d like to control more than our pocket books, and this president I think is willing to hand over more than the piggy bank, this will come soon. And let me add to that, the World Court, which we have in the past so solidly defied and not allowed our solders to be overmanned by, lest we be on trial day and night and the enemy would love that (as I predict the terrorist at the Cuban prison will soon). What I fear is what I think he’ll do next, He will, I predict, hand us over to the wolves there. I hope I am wrong.

Another worthwhile note is, I feel the new president is being a little careless with the North Koreans, lifting the so called regime from the bad guy list, or terrorist list, when just a month ago, they told South Korea they would blow them off the map. I spent 11-years in the military, I realize we have a president who hasn’t spent 11-days in it, and is making decisions that can be very costly for our alias in that area. He needs to stop and think his decisions: ask the question, “Who will my decisions hurt?” It’s a simple question, not just go ahead and give the benefit of the doubt a secret society will come and hug you with open arms, that is a fairy tail way of thinking.


Well, that is enough for letter two, I did write one the other day, it is somewhere on the Internet.

The New President: now What? 1-2009



The new president—think as you will—is directionless, even though he has convinced the world at large to the contrary; presumptive heir to the Kennedy years, and Lincoln, saga. He has engulfed all the classes, although, perhaps into what soon may be known as the wishful-dreamers table in some lonely cafe. He has as I said in other articles, saved his complexities for a later date, and one has already emerged, the turning back of tax money, few Americans want to spend out of their pockets, on someone else’s kids getting abortions. He didn’t proclaim he’d do this of course, he’d note dare to, he only whispered it behind solid walls, like when he eliminated his middle name, for the sake of the presidency. He got the Mexican vote, but I doubt he is going to do much for them.
They are comparing him with heroes that have long been proven heroes, he has not done a thing but generalizes, delete, and distort. You are not witnessing a sour mouth, I would have voted for Rice, or Hillary, which I didn’t care to do, and I didn’t like the other choice running for president he was worse then Hillary, so I didn’t vote at all, how can one, with such a selection: one cancer, the aids. God help us.
He is going to put 800,000 billion dollars on top of the already one trillion dollars of money owed out, we will have to cut a lot of trees down to print up all those dollars. We see already, the financial world is gripping for their life. You don’t heal a wound by putting salt on it.
Everybody gives the president 90-days to see how he is doing, and in those 90-days we normally see what damage he has caused or what good he has done, but of course this may be different for Obama, simple because he has voiced his opinions so loud, we expect miracles from him now, only the devil or God himself can give. But all presidents have done so, prior to becoming president that is how they made president. Few do what they say, and those that do, always get enemies somewhere along the line, in either way. I hope the best for him and America, they sure put on a good show for him anyhow, and that is worth something, and if that is all we get, we might be lucky.

Isreal: Monkey see, Money Do (Isreal Kicking thier Butts!"


Israel Kick Their Butt!


It never fails, but I always fail to understand the media in such situations, and the dumb folks that follow it, or them, like white on rice, as if they do not have a mind of their own, or perhaps they are Jew Haters also, there are a lot out there. And CNN news, which I follow daily, along with other news media’s, are the worse. Today’s headlines reads, “World rallies around Palestinians and the Gaza offensive,” now let’s think logically, there is a reason for that headlines, after days of highlighting Israel’s attack on the Palestine, rallied by CNN news, who said little prior to that about Israel being bombarded daily for months on end by the rockets coming out of Gaza killing, wounding, destroying parts of Israel, the cities, etc., what do you expect, a hug and a kiss? It doesn’t take a Ph.D., to figure it out; CNN created the monster, Israel is supposed to be. I bet if the high executives of CNN were over in Israel, before they started hitting back the enemy that has been hitting them for six months, with 10,000 rockets, they’d have pulled their children out mighty quick, but instead CNN creates a stampeded, and calls it world opinion.

President Bush, which I voted for the first time, and regretted the second, has at least good eyesight, he can see the smoke in the forest, and can figure it out, there’s fire someplace in yonder land, he knows right from wrong also, and the world is wrong, and so is CNN to blast Israel for trying to make it safe for their citizens to have a good night’s sleep. Germany, France and Spain, and a lot more of Europe are Jew haters, and the world knows this, if not, the world is sleeping on it, so if they go to the streets in protest, we all know why, they’d like to burn them alive, and they will again, when the United States goes to sleep, or if not, they will hope the Middle East will do it for them.

CNN mentions a few other countries, to build up their criteria that they are justified in proclaiming the world is mad at what Israel is doing, which by the way I think is justified, by using Iran, and Egypt, and Jordon, along with Indonesia, Libya, all again Jew haters (Muslim countries this time), can they not find someone neutral? That is like me running to the loser of a fight, who tried to knock out his opponent with a slug hammer, and was spotted before he could slam it over his head, and now yelling to me, the referee (as the Palestinians did to the Jew Haters at the UN) and saying, “Unfair fight!” How rotten can you get? CNN has no blood in the face. And then the Palestine’s saying, “It is Hamas, and not all the people in Gaza, and we are paying the deadly price…” listen up PLO, Hamas is whom you voted for, and you get what you reap, or plant, if you plant poison, you get it. Israel knows the old saying, to have peace, you got to prepare for war, if they didn’t believe it that, they’d not be here today, by CNN standards. Caracas, Venezuela has even taken sides, and that is obvious why, they are hoping and allowing the Palestine’s to fight with them against the USA; what Venezuela doesn’t understand is, Hamas has no friends, and when the time comes, they will bake Venezuela alive. There are what you call a “Money see, Monkey do,” country, not much more.

Push and Pull: Russia vs the West (WWIII)

Push and Pull: Russia
And the West

Strange if not peculiar, everyone is on the bandwagon to punish Russia over the cliff for invading Georgia, which had cause to do so, now we find they used cluster bombs against their own kind, this is no-good news—history will report the truth after it is all said and done, it always does, and as I said before, we will be finding out more truths as time goes by, and the longer time goes by, the more guiltier Georgia is, and its trouble making president, that has brought the west to the onset of WWIII; everyone things Russia is kidding, when they say take our pick between hem and us. We are not playing any longer with a wild card in our packets, and Georgia is not worth the price everyone is paying, and if the folks of Georgia want to back up their president, let them do so, but now with American money, weapons or protection. I for own see no gain in it, only loss. And to be truthful, there is no moral victory here; it is a stain on us from the beginning. Why we are there I don’t know.

Anyhow, so everyone in the west wants to punish Russia (or perhaps it is just Georgia and the United States) and no one is talking about punishing China who invaded Tibet, killed a million or two Tibetans, and had the world go to their Olympics. What kind of massage is that to the world, to Russia, to China? Perhaps the European side of the world is more important. Perhaps, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, and all those other Asian countries could care less, Even South Korea says nothing. Perhaps China knows how to silence these countries, and therefore, shut America up. Whatever is the case, it is a double standard. They belong to the WTO, with the US’s blessings, and we talk about stopping Russia, over a country with a ruler like the they got in Zimbabwe.
China is less of a friend than Russia, and may even end up in due time, at war with Russia, or comrades in a way against the West, they do have a long boarder with Russia, and think alike in many ways.
We should realize, Russia does not think like the west, it never has, and we all know it, yet we all try to wipe the stripes off its back.
When I want to make a friend out of someone, I allow them to be who they are, and except them for who they are. And deal with it from that perspective. You can’t change people, or a people, you change yourself, to adjust, or get out of their town.
We were doing the best we could do, with a people half subdued, and that was pretty good. Now we are doing not so well, and soon doors once opened will be shut. There is another world out there besides America and Europe. South America once pro North American is leaning towards Asia and Russia and he Middle East. We will lose them soon also.

I’m sure there are many factors involved here, there always is, greed being number one, stability being in there someplace, and preventing the inevitable. Whatever the case is, we must feel better dealing with Russia, because we act braver with them than China, I mean, would America really go to war with China over Taiwan? I don’t think so, unless we are crazier than they.
We may find out in future time, America is hoping to get out of that commitment I bet. Soon China will own that part of Asia, and then what? I think Russia has pulled back as much as it intends to do, and push into such countries more willing to support them, and keep the money flowing, countries like Venezuela, and Cuba, and Iran. They can do more for Russia, than little Georgia, and China can use their oil, they need it bad.
The big loser, Europe.

Is America Guilty...in Georgia? (Putin says so.)

Is America Guilty…in Georgia?
Putin says so.


I see a lot of politicians, those close to President Bush anyhow, saying how ludicrous President Putin’s remarks were, that our President had something to do with Georgia having enough guts to go forward and bomb their regions, to be subservient (how else would he have such guts); and in the process, killing all those civilians, Bush is trying to overlook, and keep quiet.
I don’t agree with the Russian tactics, but I surely don’t agree with Georgia’s either, whom seem to be getting absolution for their deadly deeds. But what is also interesting is after seven years of not giving an interview Putin does. Why? Perhaps he is hurt. A tender word for a muscle man, who doesn’t smile much, who has changed a sleeping bear to a happy bear with a bowel of honey, since they got all that oil, and now a—yes hurt bear. This friendship he had with our President must seem, full of holes for him, it would for me. I mean, I would be asking: are we only friends when I bend over backwards, how about you. It has been kind of a one sided relationship.
He said once, or the president of Russia said it, they have enough land, they don’t need more. How true that statement can be. And they do want to be part of the human race; they paid a dear price for it, giving up some 14 to 17, regions, since the cold war ended. And what have they gotten for it? Not even a thank you. But that statement Putin made, blaming it on the United States, that statement so many politicians said was ludicrous, how close to the truth was it, and it was pretty close I think. Even with old enemies, like Russia, what they say has some truth, if not logic to them. I agree, they don’t think like us, but half the world doesn’t think like us, not just Russia. Not sure if that is all good or bad.
Could it be, President Bush said to Georgia, “If you want, go ahead and take back your two regions, but don’t quote me, we’ll back you up; I doubt the bear will get over temperamental, plus we got strategies for that!”
Now the question comes up: why would he say that, and this is all guessing—what they call fiction, perhaps in the future, it will be less fiction and more fact, and it will come out in future times more dramatically, but it never does at the happening moment (behind closed doors).
If I was to take a guess, it would be that someone wanted to impress Georgia, we like doing that a lot you know in North America. And by saying what we said, they did what they wanted to do, and the US and Georgia got a shock treatment in return. This of course would not have been tried during the Cold War, but we got braver. And when Georgia found out the US could do little but talk, they went into a panic. And the US Presidency went frantic, that our powerful name could not move an angry bear, just nudged him a bit. It didn’t look good. There goes our future base, a supporting country that sent 2000-troops to the Middle East for us. And now in return we send those $20-million dollars worth of tax paying goods, for nothing, as if we owed it to them, as if we did something wrong, and want repay them, so they don’t tell the world the truth: a kind of silent blackmail.
Sometimes we say things we regret, and we do regret our president did what they did, I do anyhow, and it has put the world on edge, he is careless. And everyone is blaming Russia, which is a mistake; there is more in this than meets the eye. We counted our Chickens before they hatched, as they say, and one didn’t hatch as planned. We have to learn how not to be so blatant.
We need to mend fences, and it is not by covering up our dirty deeds by having the EU and UN, find loopholes to punish a bear that has all the honey on the other side of the world. Perhaps we need a president, as does Georgia that is more responsible for his actions.

The Russian Doctrine ( Part Two: Iran and Nuclear Warfare)

The Russia Doctrine
(For the world)


Is Russia preparing for war with America, the United States? Yes and no. They are preparing for something, and if it is the United Sates so be it, and if it is Israel so be it, and if it is the breakaway countries of Eastern Europe, so be it—and if NATO gets involve, who knows. They had one doctrine in 2000, and modified that in 2007, the doctrine is military of course, and all the commanders know they must be ready, as they were in Georgia, we saw how ready they really are, and they are ready, speedy and without question, and they know how to take down a weak nation.
Russia sees itself being smothered, if not under enemy control, don’t laugh, it has been forced feed into their systems for almost a century. It is like the old saying goes: if you tell a person long enough you don’t like chicken soup, he’ll come to believe he doesn’t.
I don’t see Russia planning an attack the United States, or the other way around, this is a different war, more on the order of a boarder war, with East Europeans, if it sparks something worse, than it does, but perhaps the days of cooperation are at its end, or close to it.
When Russia marries Iran, or takes them into their arms, then we got more trouble, the nastiness becomes home spun, the hostility will begin if Iran demands Russian support over Israel, and Russia gives it.
The good thing we got out of Russia, if anything is support working against terrorism, the Islamic element of it. And thus, we see internal security a major issue with Russia, as we do in the United States, and Western Europe. All this and more is built into the new doctrine, along with the west being responsible to recognize the Russian area of influence. They kind of feel they are, or were doing Eastern Europe a favor by protecting it, and I suppose this sparked Georgia, thinking they still had that right. On the other hand, NATO, which is proxy for the U. S., does as it please, anyplace in the world, which Russia surely sees as a bone of contention.
We need to look at the fact, they lost the so called Cold War, another bone of contention, and when a dog is done one should not kick him, and they kind of feel they’ve been kicked, and a hurt dog is dangerous, so when they can bend their doctrine, they will, as they did in Georgia.
China and Russia are becoming closer, as is Cuba, Iran, and Venezuela, and North Korea, sounds like the good old days, all our enemies turn to Russia. All these folks need technology Russia has, what we may be seeing soon is that lack of cooperation I was talking about, going, going gone to those countries. This new doctrine is only ink on white; it can be, whitened out.


Part Two Iran and Nuclear Warfare


Part of the doctrine, or so called new policy is for Russia’s military (so the chief of staff has said), if threatened, or in case of a major threat, the use of nuclear weapons will be considered, and he wants the world to take this into consideration; that is to say, if Russia feels it needs to defend the sovereignty, territorial and integrity of Russia and its allies, not only military forces will be used, but Nuclear Weapons will be preventively used, meaning preemptive nuclear weapons strikes. I think this may be more slanted toward Israel over Iran, once the honeymoon starts with Iran and Russia.
Again I must say, Russia does not like NATO encircling her, it is to her an aggressive move. And now we want to put missiles in Poland, that is a defense system, which America says is because of Iran. The problem is more I think based on the fact Russia has a land and sea-launching sophisticated system in place where it can fire missiles from either point, onto Eastern Europe; thus, this would endanger its capability destruction. Whatever it is, it is too close for comfort for the Russians. That maybe crossing a red line, I don’t know.
Russia is at present delivering nuclear fuel to Iran, Israel sees this as a deadline to hit Iran before it does what it says it will do, hit Israel. So we see a lot of roads leading to Armageddon.
In the past, the United States and Russia have been pretty much level headed in their war games, and many a country has tried to provoke Russia to fight America, and the other way around. And as we all see, Russia played chess with Georgia, and won. And so far Russia and America are still playing. America had Russia in Check, and now she is out, and the game continues, until check-mate.

Red Cross Foolishness

Red Cross Foolishness

First of all I was not going to write the article, but the Red Cross is kind of forcing it, and my wife is pushing me, Rosa. I mean, they got their say, now leave it alone, it is old business, and the Red Cross on the man’s sleeve may have saved the lives of fifteen people, in what is considered a war zone. You can’t get anything better than that.

The question comes up: Was the Red Cross emblem used with improper intent?
Perhaps it was, and I’m sure it is not the first time this has happened, but it looks like you got some professionals up there without much sympathy, in the high offices that can’t put it to rest. They say look at the future of the Red Cross! It damages the potentiality of helping others. The media and the Red Cross themselves are doing more damage than Colombia had ever intended to do, if indeed they had intent of using the emblem at all in the first place.
The President of Colombia, whose father was killed by these terrorists, and the man who wore the arm emblem by trying to make the point of their mission, an internationally mission and Red Cross supported, did what most folks would have done, had they been put into such a position. But now these so called good folks up in the high Red Cross offices, are calling it a war crime.
First of all I praise Colombia for such a daring feat, second, the terrorist got what they deserve, third, Colombian President Alvaro Uribe is my hero now; forth, is not the INRC, suppose to be helping the sick? These fifteen hostages they had were not the healthiest birds in Colombia, and these folks making the biggest noise, I bet ate a fat breakfast, and had their eight hours of glorious sleep, so they got to get off their high horses and look at what was achieved. Actually they need to look at it from a different perspective: had one of those hostages been their mother, father, child, husband, wife, would they be making such a big gripe over spilt milk? I don’t think so, and if they would, I’d not want them in my family circle.
From another vantage point, if that man who wore the emblem saved your son’s life, or family member’s life, or the mission’s life, what then? Is the Red Cross saying, he needed to take off that emblem, and say “Come and Kill us all now, because we are fooling you folks?”
I saw that happen, when the United Nations would not send in a helicopter to save their own team in Africa years ago, because it violated protocol, and I wonder now and then how their families think about it; when it would have been a simple task, because the helicopters were close by. They asked the US to do it, and the US said, if we did, you folks will insult us internationally, again for violating your standards, so the folks cried and screamed over the phone as they got slaughtered, cut to bits and pieces by the machetes of the black antagonists.
In conclusion, let me say this, right or wrong, every law has their exceptions to the policy, depending on the circumstances, we are not robots. If we limit ourselves to such standards, we become limited not only in war, but in saving lives. After the conflict, or after the war is won, no one asks, especially the losers, “Did you fight fare?” Winning means life or death, and remember we each only have one.

International Blackmailing


International Blackmailing

We kind of knew this from the 1970s through the 1980s, or at least we talked about it back then, that international blackmailing would become a reality, if we did not put it in check at that moment, and we did not put it in check, and still we have not. It now is a reality, like the EU is now a reality, in the 70s it was loose talk, the ten-nations now are something like 26, but my point is this. All the third world countries have to do is starve its people, and get a few nuclear devices, and blackmailing is next. Like North Korea does, and Iran does, and Pakistan did, kept their people dumb, keep them as followers, take over the country like Burma’s generals have, and Zimbabwe has, and all those other countries that get Care Packages, keep the money and buy nuclear capability, and tell the United Nations “Look at our poor people we can’t feed them,” and demand you get what you want, and usually you get it. If you don’t mention the big bomb, and you will surely get it, it’s just a matter of a process called international blackmailing. Now they can make a deal with the international community: pay us off, or else! So we send them free food, billions, and free oil, billions, and now the got the best of two worlds, and in essence didn’t lift a finger for a thing. They feed their armies now with this free deliver items, and send a few packages down the street to the poor: their priority is to build their arsenals, not feed peasants, like Palestine does, and the terrorists in the hills of Colombia, they could care less about feeding the hungry civilizing folk, so we send more and more food. It is all blackmail, and it works, so why change things. And this new century has all these human right groups, and the news media to start a fire if we don’t.
Point two, it all doesn’t stop there, we holler we do not want our tax money to go to these regimes in Africa that are using the money to feed their armies, and nuclear ambitions, as we have done in Asia, but the good guys from the United Nations, and the so called representatives of the world, the Human Rights groups, yell at America in particular, if not directly, through the UN, and say “How undesirable and wicked you are with those folks, they are dying by the hundreds, no thousands!” So how did this come about? That is a side they do not look at. It is simple; they are killing their own people with the food they do not have to buy, which they use for weapons. They take (as in Africa) the white man’s farms, give it to the black man, and he sits on it like a king, and does nothing, and after a while, it decapitates, like it has in Cuba, which I was there a few years back, and all those once lovely swimming pools, and mansions, are no better than shanties now. Good job Castro. So the money we give to the poor countries, they buy weapons with to kill their own kind, while the human rights groups run to the US, or EU, or UN, to save the day, so we can send more food or money to support the killing soldiers. I am not sure what side these groups are on, but I do know this, Satan is working overtime with planting stupid seeds in their heads.
We seem to say little about the blackmail aspect of these called third world countries, the poor boys down the black, and in most cases the reason they are poor is not because they have to be, but their government wants them to be, because they’d get their heads chopped off by the leaders, if they try jump over the poverty line, it is only allowed for a few to do that. If I was a king of one of these countries, I’d love the Human Rights groups to death, love them morning and night, even send them a free hotel pass, at any five star hotel in the country, if indeed they have one, they get their bread buttered by these folks.

I’ll put it in a nutshell; we are enabling other countries to embezzle, to take our tax monies and misappropriate those funds, to kill and starve and build up for World War Three. I can’t make it any plainer than that.

What is the solution? I’ll say it not so sweet, but up front, and you will not want to hear it, so don’t read this part then, but this part is the problem, and we are going to get rid of some of the problems right now: no one wants to hear reality, they want to live in a nutshell. Anyhow, let Israel bomb Iran, and that will take care of the nuclear issue one, therefore another ten-years, and they have enough oil to feed those starving masses if they want to. If not, well, let their president do what he does best, boast.
Second, North Korea, don’t give them a dime, let them take care of their own, if the people of North Korea want a dictatorship, let them have it, it’s called, create a revolution, like we did in America and fought for our freedom. In most cases, in governments, you get what you deserve, what you’ve supported. If the people are not willing to fight for it, then perhaps it is not worth fighting for, let the bad guys do what they’ve been doing, as long as it does not melt out into other societies. As far as the nukes go, blow them up. They are not going to hit South Korea, they may be strange, but they are not that stupid, they will lose the ‘goat and the rope.’
Zimbabwe, lets not have a stroke over it, half of Africa is like Zimbabwe. If they can afford to bring in ship loads of arms, they can buy their own bread. If they do not want to buy bread for the masses, then we got a choice, and it should not be blackmail. Go in and dethrone the king, or pay the piper for the rest of our lives, or his, or just let him do what he does best; chop heads until someone chops his off.
The world is getting full of these so called Humpty Dumpy’s who will fall sooner or later off their high towering walls. I for one do not wish to pay taxes to keep Egypt afloat, or Palestine armed, or to pacify the Human Right’s folks.

Indifference Under the Sun (Torregaveta, west of Naples, southern Italy)


I read today of the two girls in Italy on the beach who drowned, and the bystanders, or beach folk, whatever you call them, were quite indifferent on the matter, simply looked at the dead bodies, and went back to their sunbathing, sipping soft drinks, and so forth and on. The question I ask myself is this, “Why I am not surprised?”
About 18-months ago, I did an article on indifference in Buenos Aires, Argentina, basically what I said was this in a nutshell: my wife and I were walking down a street, three young men came and jumped on us, one large person grubbing me, around my arms and shoulders, and the other men grabbing my wife, to rob her peruse. I freed myself from the large man, broke his nose and perhaps ankle, with my heel, when I kicked it. Then went to my wife to protect her, and one of the two let go to fight me, and I started to subdue him, and the large guy came back, this time didn’t grab me, but rather pushed me, so his friend could run back and help the other fellow with my wife to get the purse, while I was off balance, I again, subdued the big guy, and tired to get to my wife, now two of these guys attacked trying to get her purse, and they saw me, and two of them attacked me again, pushed me to the ground, in the process one remained by me, the other two of those grabbed my wife’s purse and ran, with the third following, and I ran after the third, but my wife called, and I stopped. I was 59-years old, so I was getting winded, and she was worried I suppose.

Well enough of the fighting, I now was with my wife, we looked up the street, a woman was watching, 80-feet away. We walked up to her, I said, “Nice show, ha?” And she said, “We rode by and saw it all.” I asked, “Who is we?” And her response was, “My husband and I.” She was perhaps in her late 30s. Then I asked, “Where is your husband?” Well, she looked at me, then with a smile said, “Oh, he’s in the car, parked over there, didn’t want to see it.” She pointed a few feet away from where she was, to her car.

She then said to my wife, “I saw it all, everything,” and after a few minutes, the police came, and she repeated that to the police. And I got thinking, here she and her husband was, in the safety of their car, watching me and my wife battle it out, and all she could do is watch from 80-feet away, and her husband hide in his car around the corner. Why not stop the car in front of the bully’s and watch, get a better show, why 80-feet away, they really like being safe. Or why didn’t they simply go, since they were not going to do a thing anyhow.

Oh well, enough of that, most people I meet come under the coward area anyway, especially men nowadays, who when they feel safe, they got a big mouth, but little back up. So I get an email from someone in –you guessed it, Buenos Aires, he wasn’t sad by that attack, or even concerned how my wife was, he said in essence: how come you attack Buenos Aires (which has an obvious answer to), we are not as bad here as you say, and he went on and on how nice and safe it is there, and how great the people are. Not one bit sad for what happened to us, what a loser I thought, he perhaps needs a little experience in this area, he most likely would have cried like a baby, and not fought, most people don’t they only like a good show and world that doesn’t disrupt theirs: he will most likely get his due.

I did go to the police, and they said, “No sense in making a formal complaint, it happens all the time here.” If I would have shot the robbers, they, the police would have put me in jail for taking thier business away. They, the folkis in Bueonos Aires, and I all know they are in on it. I called up the American Embassy, and asked about getting a new Pass Port, and in the process he said, “Don’t take it so hard, even us guys here have all got robbed by someone, sometime here in Buenos Aires.” And to add to this, our guide had told us how nice and safe the city was, don’t worry wherever you walk in town here, its safe. It is the most unsafe city I have ever been in, and indifferent to its guests. And the indifference is like that beach in Torregaveta, west of Naples, southern Italy, where those poor girls, in their teens, died, and everyone just looked on, under the sun.

Should Israel Hit Iran?



Before you read this article remember it is an opinion, and we all have them, and if you are a Jew hater don't read it at all, it will only get you more anger, because there are a lot of those folks out there:


Should Israel bomb the nuclear sites in Iran? First of all let me say, it is easy to say something on behalf of someone else, when you are safe at home. But let me change the options, and perspective, and then come back to the question in the first line of this article.
If my neighbor said, “…as soon has I can afford to buy a gun and learn how to shoot it, and have money to buy bullets to kill you and your family members,” and if I believe he will do what he says he will do, I would stop him one way or another. I would try to go to the police (in this case with Israel and Iran, the UN), and after five years the police if they could not do anything, or nothing, and now I knew the window of opportunity was closing, the window that could protect my family, I’d have to hurry up and do whatever I had to do to stop the professed murderer to be, and it would not be going back to the police that for five years could not protect me in the first place, that only gave the enemy, the one that said, ‘…as soon as they have the means, we will destroy them…” I repeat, I would not stop them, without the police.
So now we can go back to the original question. Would I hit their nuclear sites? Let me give another example first: what country would not try to protect them from mad cow disease? Today South Korea is protesting US Meat, not protesting the North bombing them in the future, but rather meat, my point here is, they feel a threat to their society, and they are blocking the gates so the meat markets in South Korea. They have negotiated on this matter, and resolved some issues. In a like manner, the UN, and five other countries have talked with Iran, and solved nothing. It comes under the heading of being a protectionist.
Now we know Iran has oil, enough to light up all the cities in the world for ten-years, so do they need a nuclear plant? I don’t think so, and they know so. Ok, now we go back to the first question again, which is perhaps a little more obvious of what my answer is going to be ‘Should Israel hit Iran?.”
If I was Israel, I would ask: “Do we fight a war with Iran now, or when they got the nuclear bomb,” because they will fight with them sooner or later, and sooner with the bomb, once they have it.
This is what is on their minds I’m sure. The other question comes to light: will this start a worse bloodily war in the Middle East? Iran is already at war with America in Iraq, so it doesn’t really matter all that much. Matter of fact, if Israel attacked now, and not wait a year from now, America may have to back up Israel even if they don’t want to. Whereas, two years from now, will America be there to do it? Because once we leave Iraq, as Obama says, I doubt we are coming back to assist Israel.
Yes, so my answer is yes, if I was the Prime Minister of Israel, I’d do it mighty quick also, while the world is still tossing about the fear factor of what Iran might do, since they said they will do it once they got the means to do it. Tomorrow for me would not be quick enough.
Now for those that are saying “You must like to see people die,” because war means death. I say this, tonight most likely the person reading this, thinking how negative this letter is, is going to have a good nights sleep, will Israel? It is easy to say let’s talk, but Israel has been talking for five years, going in circles, and getting mixed messages, the window is almost closed. And if there is going to be a war with Iran, it’s a good time to have one, while Israel and the US are all in place; Russia is coming in with some long term assistance for Iran, once they are in place, it will be most difficult to hit Iran, without provoking Russia, and then we got more than we bargained for, and Israel will have a new war to deal with, and bigger.

Howard Stern: You mean the sick one?

  1. Howard Stern: yes, Again, the Sick one!

    Every so often I get an email, on Howard Stern, why I don’t care for his kind of entertainment. I get actually both kinds of emails, negative and positive. Negative saying, I should like him, and how great he is, and I should not write about him negatively, which I have not for years, and positive folks saying: your right he is a bad news, bad entertainment, a bad example for our society, especially our kids.
    Years ago when I was writing for a website, I wrote several articles on him, basically saying what everyone would expect a Christian to write.
    I said in essence, we have a lot of folks out there laughing at his sick and dirty jokes, and his TV sketches which where pats on the girls butt, and his homosexual overtones, and friends coming to his station to get on TV, and show all they could in a filthy way; So the question comes up again, why don’t I care for him or his entertainment. I’m a Christian, that should settle it and that should really settle it, but for some folks out there it doesn’t.
    His followers, which I hear are 10-million, so Howard claims, want me to embrace him. I think I could pray for him, but embrace him is a little too much. And if he really has 10-million followers, we can all see why there is an issue out there, we got a lot of folks liking what he stands for, and that is filth, and we all know that. He knows that, I know that, and you reading this know that. What you put into your mind, is what is going to come out of your mouth sooner or later.
    Nothing new: he does not talk on the virtues of life, or the sanctity of womanhood, or the love of children, or the need for Godly people, it is to the contrary, he talks about women being machines, and usable for sex and other pleasures, as men can be also. He has no virtues so he leaves them out of his talks, and just puts in jokes and puns, and children, I would guess are no better than dogs to him, except when he goes home and puts on the daddy play. He talks about alcoholism as if it is a nice escape, and he demonstrates his morbid issues, like William Burroughs did in his books and Allen Ginsberg has in his poetry. They all belong to the same sick club, and they infect our society, especially the children that end up listening to those around them, and hear that he is there idol, hero, and to be honest if that is the best anyone can come up with for a hero, we are really in deep mud: many folks think this person is a champion for the freedom of speech (which his folks would like to take from me, if they could, since I do not embrace him), when in essence he and they are the sick part of society. But freedom of speech, is not what he uses, he uses the weak side of man’s brain, he knows the psychological part of it well, and he feeds it, like one feeds a bull before the matador slaughters it. He knows he’s not going to Heaven, and doesn’t believe in hell, so he is free to infect society with this fitly virus, and he does.
    In conclusion, let me say, I do with people would stop bringing his name up to me, he offers nothing to mankind, nothing I really want to write about, only to the devil in man does he feed, and we have enough of that, what he offers, without his input. And so, to those who have written me using his name, I hope this once and for all puts it as a settlement, he will get his due in due time, and he is not worth anymore of my time, of course, you already know this, you just want to hear an echo of my displease with such folks. You can comb the internet and find out the other comments I’ve had on him years ago, that should feed your hunger. Now if this offends you, I can’t figure out why, Howard writes much worse than I. And don’t worry folks, your hero is still alive and among you, and the devil is waiting.

Is the Democratic Ticket Sweating?




CNN and the rest of the so called group gathering folks on data keep trying to figure out who will take the presidency, in November, said a month ago, most all of Clinton’s party will go over to Obama, how wrong they were, I could have told you that long ago, week by wee Obama is losing his following not only in that area but several other. Now they say, they will slip over after they go through the grieving period, then the depression, and then the acceptance. They are talking like a licensed counsellor, and I am a licensed counsellor. It doesn’t quite work like that, we are not talking about a dead horse, or a family member, or something that cannot be altered. Let me give CNN and the big boys at Obama’s party a few words of wisdom, free of charge of course, but perhaps a million dollars worth, and then some. People change for a reason, and they don’t change for the dumb one I read on CNN, to get a person to change, you change their formal reasoning. They are in an emotional state of course, but they are not going to be taken out of it, a week before Election Day, that’s silly, and we are not talking about a hurt alcoholic because you took his last beer away. Do you think some bird is going to drop a formal reasoning pill on every one who says they will stay home or vote for the another party? Those people are saying what they are saying for a reason, and for some odd reason, the Democratic Party is not listening, or are the data gatherers. Wake up out there; you are talking to a few million adults, not kids. That will not happen, and as long as folks sit back and look at the incoming data, they will be saying, “Well, now we have to go to plan B, no, C, or is if D now.” And then the victory is over, for you know who. I am one of those folks that you call a Republican, but was changing over because of Hillary, now I will go back to the Republican party, there are a lot of us folks out there also, ones CNN and all the other groups have not counted yet. But anyhow, so the data collectors are saying: they will change over at the last minute, issues are involved here, and everyone wants change. Not true, stop beating the rug, this is false. Many folks over fifty-years old do not care for all that much change, Obama proclaims to deliver, and can he deliver what he says anyhow. He is saying whatever needs to be said to win, that his gift. Hillary, we all knew, she was doing the same, but she is a little more trustful. People still see a lot of ‘if’ and ‘buts’ in the Obama ticket. Europe likes him because he is young, that is about it. If he get in if I were the world looking, I’d be saying, we may get short changed by this guy, I mean, do you really think we will end up buying more from China, South America, Europe? I doubt it, Obama is not for import, and he is for export. But we have to get back to reserved reasoning change. How do you do that? Well if you don’t do that, you don’t change the thinking of the person that is voting, or for that matter, you don’t change the thinking of anyone, they just keep on thinking they way they are thinking. I know this is kind of simple, but truths are simple; and you do not change it by a lecture on T.V., or in the newspapers, they may help but the real change comes should to should, eye to eye. You put the cards on the table and you show and tell, the old fashion way, and little by little you boil the frog alive, and he doesn’t know it. But if you put the heat of now, he knows what you are doing. Matter of fact, out of spite, he may run to the voting room and vote, for the other party, when he said he was going to stay home.
My recommendation to Obama’s party, and to CNN, since I sense they like Obama, is you better get all those meetings folks together, and have a town meeting with real people, and not machines, in all those voting cities and towns, and do a hands on job, sit down and talk to them eye to eye. The problem is, time may not allow that now. Recommendation two, have Hillary as president, and the arrogant Obama, as vice President, there is a winning ticket. If he selects Hillary as Vice President, it might not go so well, although it might look good. But the big shots in the Democratic Party, running the show, are not that smart to figure it out. Prediction: they will lose if they don’t change (this is the very thing they want everyone else to do)!

The False Leopard: Obama

The False Leopard: Obama

Obama, He will be the biggest mistake the United Status has ever made in selecting a president, if indeed he becomes president; if he becomes president, he will be the most Ungodly president we ever had, perhaps that is why the young folks like him. He is for abortion, for gun control, he translates the bible to mean what he wants it to mean. He is no Christian, and not only has his blood testified to that, his mouth has. He will be the down fall of the once American Empire. He tries to change his spots like a leopard, but he can’t. We had many good men to select for our president, and we ended up with the three worse of the lot, and Obama, among the three, is the least likely to be of any use to the American People. He will stop a war, and create a new one, one we cannot win. He will hand the government over to the United Nations, and the European Court, Dr. James Dobson, Christian Psychologist, is absolutely right, here is a man, a wolf in sheep’s clothing, one who feels Christianity does not belong in the Whitehouse, or even in Congress, or even in America, although he wants the Christian vote.
He has never been in the Military, and mocks the military by saying he can run it better than any man alive, that it doesn’t take a seasoned veteran to run such a program, he must think it is the Boy Scouts he’s talking about.
Here is a man that hides behind his middle Islamic name. Whose church is more anti white, bias and cantered toward spreading the good word that white folk are the enemy, even more so than the Black Panther’s did in the 60s. If he becomes president, God help us all. I think Obama thinks he can fool all the people all the time, if indeed he is given that time. But as the old saying goes, you can’t fool all the people all the time, perhaps some of the time, until they wake up. It would seem to me, Obama, would like all the Christians in America to overlook their belief systems, and vote on the least moral grounds possible, leaving ethical issues for the church, and democracy for him to decide how it should be for the people by the people. Yet the foundation of America was not built on his beliefs, they were built on a strong Christian foundation, one I believe he wants to eliminate, if he can. He implies we should not fight for what we believe, we should not fight at all, just let the government lead blindly the blind. He doesn’t want Christianity in the schools, but he wants the children in the schools to abide by Ten Commandments, everything he talks about is Godless, and superficial faith.

Political Dementia in Peru


Recently, Peru had a fiesta for the world at large, shut down Lima, gave everybody a holiday without pay, and lavished the rest of the world with gifts, telling them how great Peru is, even though there is a robber on ever street corner ready to kill for a few bucks. Every woman, every household, and perhaps everybody, in Peru have been robbed once or twice and it is rising with Garcia in power, the day he was ordained King of Peru; the police are worse than the robbers, they wait by churches and rob the security people who are trying to protect the houses around the neighborhood, that is really the job of the police, but they now have taken up robbery themselves, it pays better. Every house in Lima has gotten iron bars on it, and you got to ask why? It is because Garcia’s police force demands it to be so, lest you lose house and furniture. Nowadays, the robbers do not take a T.V., or computer, they take the whole house full of furniture; and Garcia says on TV, look how great we are. He is blind, and lead by the blind; he has dementia I think, or is in another world.
They, the president and his staff, now want to have the Olympics in 2020 AD, and they can’t even feed their own, they have to still take handouts. Something is missing here. Garcia is on another one of his grandeur episodes, he was in the 1980s, and Peru plunged to the depths of hell, like Zimbabwe has recently, and now that Peru is sending all its food out to other counties, to become international, Garcia likes that word, food prices have doubled in Peru, how nice of him to think of the international trade before his own people, that suffocates his own people. All he will be remembered for in history I fear will be as a pea in a pod, that none care to remember. He is so out of sink with his people. I think he is trying to do what he did last time, hide the money for retirement, and run to Paris when his regime is up, but this time he wants enough money to have it out live him. He moaned and groaned about how he wanted to show the people of Peru, he could be a good president, if only they would give him a second chance; but as most Peruvians can see once a thief, always a thief.

Why so Many Robbers in Peru?


Why so Many Robbers in Peru?

I’ve been coming to Peru for nine years, lived her the past three, and the question comes up now and then, “Why are there so many robberies in Peru?” Especially in Lima; people (outside of Peru) think it is because of the poor ole souls here without work, it is far from the truth. Let me explain.
For the most part the economy is doing well, the poor and old the ones no one helps, especially President Garcia, are not the robbers, what little they have; they are the ones being robbed. It is the young, able, lazy, drug addicted, gangs; it is the un-retired terrorists, and the middle-aged that are not professional, and all those that fall in-between.
It starts from the top. Something like sixty percent of the population said it has gotten worse since President Garcia took office, if you do not know his background, he is known to be the biggest robber in the country, hid in Paris for a decade so the French could protect him from his own people, whom he robbed millions from. If you are asking why he got into office, it is a long story, but the population in Peru have a degree of robbers, and the robbers like the law, because the law is for them, it is not for the person being robbed, that is why it is so profitable to be a robber in Peru.
It would be easy to enforce the laws, which are many, and the reason they do not is in part, because most mayors got into the office with the intentions of robbing, and a robber does not want to enforce laws he may be subject to himself—lest he put himself in jail. Most have businesses in their districts, I mean after they become mayor, most construction in Lima has been done under the law, and has violated most every law made in that area, but a signature from the Mayors office seals the deal, law or no law.
Let me give you some examples: if you are robbed, and your chances are 70% you will be if you are not with a group, if the group leader doesn’t rob you on vacation, but he is being paid to take you to the places of interest, and on the side to take you to places other people want you to go. They may even get paid to give the time and date when they (you) will be at a certain place, where a gang of robbers will be on hand.
If you get robbed, and it is under $2000, dollars, the police will not waist their time with you, prefer not even making out a report, and if they do, they will ask you for his name, and identification, and hope you have a picture, they don’t. If you are asking “How would I get his name,” that is where the problem comes in; no robber gives his name, do they. Case Closed!
And if they do follow up on it, it is to appease you, and nothing will be done in reality, the paperwork will be lost before you get back home on your seven day vacation.
Another example is, if you shoot a robber, and your life is at stake, and he does not have a gun, even if there are three of them, you go to jail, pay his hospital bill, and he goes home free, without charges. This is a fact. The justice in Peru is not in protecting yourself from the robber; it is allowing him to take at will, what he may, so it pays, and the robber knows this. He may even tell you to shoot, hoping he will survive, and take you to court and empty your bank account legally.
The mayors control the police in their district, and the police in Peru are worthless, most of them, there are a few special units worth their salt, but you will most likely not see them. They guard the president, and the mayors, and are used for special missions. The regular police actually turn their heads if a crime is in progress this is no job, come and see. It is not because Peru has no laws, they do, but none are enforced, the police get paid about 900 soles a month, about $400 dollars. You can buy your way out of anything, even a murder for fist full of dollars.
When I first came to Peru in 1999, it was safer than now, the laws more enforced. The last two presidents had done well for Peru, and funny isn’t, they are the ones the people try to prosecute.
Garcia now, is on his high horse, he has forgotten the people, out of touch with them, and is on some race to make Peru stand out as the country remodeled by him, as if this is Egypt, and he is the pharaoh, and he will be remembered for his glory. Sad to say, he will be remembered as a two time loser, he was President in the 1980s and he broke the country, gave them the highest inflation in the world. He now is living on the momentum of the past two presidents; Garcia in history will be forgotten like the thieves that are now robbing freely, the poor and hardworking folks of Peru, will wash their hands of him.

Can we afford Obama?

Do we dare with—Obama?


Obama is not the right person for President, period. Why? We judge a person by whom he hangs around with, what is said, and if he stays in the same house with the person he says is doing wrong, and we so judge this person accordingly. It took him a long time for him to make that decision, with a lot of apologies in between to leave his church domain. We judge everyday, ever decision we make. To be frank, none of the three candidates are fit for office, but I fear Obama, is the worse of the worse, Clinton, whom I do not favor either is the best of the worse. This of course is my opinion. But I have looked, as the nation has looked closely at his background, as we should, and what he says, and where he came from, and where he goes, and who he hangs around with, and found him needing. He regrets he has had a negative relationship with a church recently, that is recently, I wonder what that church has talked about for the last twenty years, it by their own tongue, anti white, anti everything but Muslim and black, so it seems, and under the roof of Christianity “Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content three with, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbade them that would, and cast them out of the church.” (Epistle of John) they talk it, they salute it, and all in the name of Jesus Christ. They scorn Clinton, as if she should be hated, “But he that hate his brother is in darkness, and walks in darkness, and know not whither he goes, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.” (1 John). God gave to John a message he said, “…try the spirits see if they are of God: because false prophets are gone out into the world.” This is Obama’s church in a nutshell.
I hate to tell them, but Christ was not black, nor was he white, he was Jewish, and we know what a Jew looks like, do we not, and what comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and so we know the heart of the church, and perhaps a good portion of the heart of Obama. On the other hand, he has a slight bend to the Muslim agenda. On one hand this is seen as a gift, for both sides of the world, on the other it is very suspicious—like taking his middle name out of his full name, and not exposing the fact his father is Muslim, they had to pry it out of him, because he wants to hide the fact for the present, until he makes president, he is of the Muslim code, or could be. Even Satan can go into a church and bend his knees with the rest of the crowd, and walk out smiling. It does not mean he is for Christ, his ways his heart. And one cannot afford to guess who is sitting in the White House.
He is pro gun control. If he could, and he may have the chance to, he’d take the guns away from everyone in America, everyone that is, but his bodyguards. Perhaps he will also join the International Court that will end the active role for our military around the world as a superior power, tie their hands. Also, he will give the United Nations all they want, at the expense of the American Tax payer, now we give twenty-billion of our money to feed the empire of the UN, while our own unfed, remain unfed. This would pull the rug from under the chair right out from the poor.
He has never served a day in the military, and I do not think is qualified, to control the military, why should we give him control of something he knows nothing about. It is like giving a backyard car mechanic, the go ahead to fix the 747 Jet at the international airport, whom will carry all the food, arms, money, and congress to its next destination. I spent eight years in active duty, one in war. And he wants to be Commander and Chief, where is his qualifications, in this area I would and could make better decisions, and I do not feel qualified. God help us all, if he is president.

Sharon Stone and the Big Boys from China



Sharon Stone
and the Big Boys from China



I liked Sharon Stone when she didn’t apologize for her so called unspoken remarks, now a mistake she says, by telling the Chinese they got what they deserved from God, for trying to hurt the Dalai Lama, you see she was perhaps mostly right, God does throw stones in our pathway to get our attention. The reason China doesn’t understand this, is because China is not an advocate of or for God’s opinion, they really do not care one way or the other about God, they just want to be God; so they blame it on someone they can’t bully, who does believe in God. They do not see the wrongs they are doing. Sharon, I think should have stuck to her guns, she had some wisdom to share. It is sad that so many lives have been lost in China’s earth quake, but that is beside the point, I mean China has been said to have killed over a million Tibetans thus far, since 1959. Does China think God is going to reward them for killing over one million Tibetans up to date, or by trying to bully Taiwan? If I was God, and I am not, that earthquake would be right up my ally, I mean it would be something I’d use to get their attention; the peoples attention. I am sure her manager is sorry, she said what she said, he will lose some money over this, China will expel Sharon’s advertisements, and there you go a few million in endorsements down the Yangtze. Is everything about fame and fortune, I mean don’t we say what we mean, or only say what you want they want to hear. There is a price, in such things, and we have to count that before we say what we say, and Sharon meant every word I’m sure, and even her apology did no good, because China is not a forgive god, they will stop, not allow their people to buy her products, so she apologized for nothing, and in the process lost her respect. I respected her much more, for what it is worth, and not much in paper money, but it sure beats being a puppet for the regime.

Sharon was not blaming the people of China, per se, only the Government, and when a government is allowed to do what China does, perhaps God does look down and is saying: let my people go, let them be free, let Tibet breath. But a robber is never satisfied with what they got, if they know they can take more by force what you can’t secure. China now is in the Japanese sea, taking Japanese oil, and a debate is underway right now. China is in Kazakhstan, building an oil pipe line, and Russia is not happy, but does China care, I doubt it. China is selling their mechanize on through the WTO, that the United States help them become a member of, and now is undermining Europe and America, flooding the world with cheap labor items, and building a nuclear arsenal with the receipts, while spying and getting technology on and from the US. China will not let the world have Taiwan, officials as guests in their own countries, and the USA is one who goes along with it like Sharon has just did, shame on both of them.
So when Sharon Stone says: maybe God has had his fill of China for a while, or enough is enough of their meddling and insults, I want there attention, well maybe she’s right, he did send an earthquake. And to be quiet frank, I think China better look at what Sharon said, all those trimmers in-between is perhaps God trying to clear his throat, and when he does, I want to be far away.
