I’ve been hearing off and on via the cable news how a particular presidential candidate for the Democratic party has visited the Middle East. And for whatever reason, the media has been broadcasting this recent news repeatedly. It’s getting really annoying.
All I see is someone who is inexperienced in foreign relations and has performed a symbolic ‘public relations’ stunt (for lack of a better choice of word) with the mostly Muslim community. He has already met King Hussein (which sounds like Barack Obama’s middle name) of Jordan, and leaders in Iraq. However, he does appear to have the willingness to get the United States troop out of Iraq.
In my opinion only, since an administration for over eight years has exercised his ‘preemptive strike’ on the war on terror (i.e. countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, probably Iran next and maybe with Pakistan), he (GWB) should be the one to fix the mess he started before the installation of the next president of the United States and get all the credit and glory befit war-mongers. Either he or John McCain could continue fooling us into believing that the war will never end. Everything eventually comes to end, right?
I have a feeling that the stage for this war has already been planned out from the beginning — a big ‘Hollywood-like’ production to instill fear into the minds of the American citizens of these alleged terror/ists despite the lack of evidence supporting the alleged ‘weapons of mass destruction’. As a result, people support the troop who would loose their lives, breaking the hearts of family members and all for the security (or lockdown of our freedom, whichever work for y’all) of the United States.
And like any production, people get involved. First chaos is created whether real or imaged, such as complete strangers knocking at the door for money, demonic entities sent from the etheric world to annoy people or whatever entertainment brought to shake up one’s stagnant worldview about everything being normal and nice without any trouble whatsoever. Second solutions are offered whether possible or not. I feel all of us have been duped one way or another. For me, everything up to this point has been nothing but business as usual. Get the job done and be happy, at whatever price.
The price is honesty and I guess if people were told the truth about the war was really about trading nuclear arms or oil and charging the consumers for making this possible, we wouldn’t even get this far in the trillion dollar debt, It doesn’t matter who becomes the next president of the United States. We know not all the troops could come home.
Overall, peace is nice and would be a great CHANGE worldwide. The real change (as I’ve heard via one of Rush Limbaugh’s radio talk show segments) is the revolutionary minds, who break away from the old ways of ‘headhunting’ and set up shop/business here to live the dream of American capitalism. Perhaps it’s time to CHANGE for the better whatever that may be for those in control of the world.
