The Evil I Speak Out Against
This was shared by a Christian Clergy Women that I think is a confused about the nature of the evil we are facing at this present time. Very real enemy's exist to Liberal Western Civilization that IS NOT us. Enemies that are every bit as totalitarian, brutal and evil as the Nazi's, Communists, and Imperial Japanese at their worst. Enemies that are driven by a confidence in the righteousness and inevitability of their dreams of worldwide domination. Extremists of such a sort should never be underestimated especially when they readily announce their intentions to bring destruction to our way of life.
Not that our way of life is perfect, it most certainly is not. We are human's. We are flawed. We make mistakes. We sin against heaven. We sin against our fellow man. But for all of our faults at least we are not totalitarians. God help us all if these enemies of which I speak do prevail. Not that I think they will. But right now they have far to much oxygen to breathe. They will use this oxygen to make the world a more messed up place. They will continue to have it as long as Obama is in office and his leading from behind policies are in place.

C'mon President
U.S. Strategy Seeks to Avoid ISIS Prophecy from the NY Times
George Bush never stated it, but very much used a fly paper strategy by going to war in Iraq. For some reason Obama never thought that agitating Jihadist's and goading them to battle our soldiers in their lands was a good strategy. Even though our never stated strategy was clearly starting to bear fruit Obama put an end to it in Iraq. Obviously (or obliviously) Obama knew What? was best.
What? was so smart about handing Iraq over to Iran to deal with? How was that in our or any of our allies best interests?
Well as it turns out Obama's strategy is looking as foolish as he thought Bush was for invading Iraq.
So now we have an emboldened Iran and a resurgent Sunni jihadists. And now we have a very limited number of troops back in Iraq and presumably in Syria as well. But those troops are not seen as occupiers in the eyes of the Jihadist's and those they are recruiting. (rolling eyes and smh)
So now we find out from the no less than the NY Times we must be careful not to fulfill some crazy Jihadist prophecy/fantasy. C'mon President Obama don't tell me you believe in some crazy Jihadist superstition. You want to do something about stemming Jihadist recruiting then go right after there crazy superstitions. They want a battle in Dabiq, lets blow the place up and then send in the Marines along with your much vaunted international coalition.
Put aside your pride Obama, Bush was right, battle them over there and the problem won't be as bad over here.

What? Overreaction Did The French Have To 9/11?
Tonight on my local 10 'o clock news there was a "Terrorism Expert" who said we should not overreact to tonight's terror attack in Paris, the way we overreacted to 9/11. He claimed that is exactly what the terrorists want us to do and it would be a mistake. Because if we overreact, the way we did after 9/11 we will only make matters worse by alienating more Muslims and creating more terrorists.
I take it "the mistake" he was referring to was code for Operation Iraqi Freedom. Because all right thinking people know that Operation Iraqi Freedom was a disaster and why Muslim extremists are now on the offensive in France.
But wait a second Mr. Expert, France wanted and played no part in Operation Iraqi Freedom. How did our overreaction in Iraq lead to France being attacked so viciously? I can see how "Operation Iraq We Gone" contributed to the mayhem we are seeing right now, but Operation Iraqi Freedom, not so much. It seems to me when President Bush left office Iraq was stable, on the right path, and Muslim extremism was being rolled back. Beating one's enemy on the battle field has a way of sapping them of their vigor.
Then we elected a new President who was going to correct the mistakes of our "Cowboy President." Operation Iraqi Freedom was ended in favor of Operation Iraq We Gone. The whole region has been going backward ever since. Allowing our enemy space and time to regroup is an under-reaction that is only going to get more people killed.
"Overreaction"! (smh)

Iraq War: The Inconvenient Facts
Tonight in the Democratic Party Presidential debate, they were all in agreement that the Iraq War was the worst foreign policy mistake in American History.
Really???
The facts:
In 2009, when GWB left the White House the nation of Iraq was stable, Al Qaeda in Iraq if not totally defeated was badly beaten and on their way to defeat, and the nation of Iraq was heading in the right direction.
What happened? Obama failed to negotiate a Status Of Forces agreement allowing US troops to stay in country to insure the progress would continue in the right direction. The US troops in country were the one honest broker that would be able to see that the Shia, Sunni, and Kurds all got along.
Obama and Clinton then neglected Iraq and dropped the ball during the Arab Spring allowing Iran to extend it's influence in Iraq leading to the neglect of the Sunni and Kurdish area's of the country, which in time led to the rise of ISIS and a new civil war in Iraq starting in 2013.
If Iraq War is the worst foreign policy mistake in American History, it's because of failure, neglect, and negligence directly attributable to the foreign policy of Obama and the Democratic Party.

My Thoughts on the Iran Deal
Obama is taking a huge risk that his diplomacy will work out for the best in the end. I believe taking that risk is reckless and irresponsible. We absolutely should have put war on the table and dictated the terms to the Iranians or else. For Gods sakes the Iranian leadership goal is to bring down Israel and the United States. We know this because they say so frequently.
Did negotiating with North Korea keep them from cheating and getting the bomb?
There is absolutely no reason to trust we can verify anything, short of what we did in Iraq to Saddam. The Iranians wouldn't even concede that their ambition is to get a nuclear weapons.
SMH.

My Thoughts On Planned Parenthood & Abortion
It would be a great organization if it was not in the abortion business. It is a fact that a unique human life begins at conception. All humans are created equal and endowed by the creator with a right to life. To take the life of an innocent human being without just cause is murder. I believe abortion should be allowed only in the very limited instances of saving the life of the mother, incest/rape with taking the baby to term to be viewed as the courageous and preferred option. It is an unmitigated evil that mothers are allowed to murder their children because they use the same psychological trick as Nazi's. Tell yourselves all you want that your child is nothing, but a bundle of cells without it's own unique humanity, but that will never be the truth.
Legalized abortion in this country has undoubtedly robbed us all. I don't know if we will ever get to know the full extent of our loss, but it is my hope that one day we will understand what we have done and what could and would have been instead.

I support The Lions Of Rojava
The Lions of Rojava are Westerners fighting with the Kurds versus the Daesh (aka ISIS) in Iraq and Syria.
Here is a story on them.
