"All these protests in Egypt,
Tunisia, Jordan and Yemen are inspired by Iran's Islamic revolution and
these countries are de facto rocked by the aftershock of the Iranian
revolution," [senior Iranian cleric Ayatollah Ahmad] Khatami claimed
[...]
All of this is
a shorthand way of saying that the Iranian revolution and the Muslim
Brotherhood share a similar political ideology, even if their theology
is different. In other words, the differences between Sunnis and
Shiites are not insurmountable from either Iran's or the Muslim
Brotherhood's point of view. When Ayatollah Khatami roots for the
protesters in Egypt, then, it is a safe bet that he and others in Iran
are specifically cheering on the Muslim Brotherhood. [Iran,
the Muslim Brotherhood, and revolution] |

This is
like the despicable John McCain being defeated by Barack Obama. A
disaster for the free world. The same people who cheered then,
cheer now.
I listened this morning to heads on FOX and Friends wondering
aloud, "now that we are leaving Iraq (an
action condemned even by Ron Paul! for chrisake), will Iran take
advantage?" Am I the smartest man on the world? That's right,
not even close. They, then, must be the dumbest. The media
universally applaud as, one by one, autonomous middle east
tyrants are overthrown by hard core Islamo monsters who openly proclaim
their intentions to create one giant Islamic state. How short
sighted can media be? |

Dumbest or ball-less? If they make the statement they probably get called on the carpet. Besides, if they ask the question, they appear to be the smartest folks in the room believing we all -just- got the message. Even FOX has become a disappointment, but still better than the other choices.
ReplyDeleteI would hate to be stationed at the U.S. embassy in Baghdad once we pull out of Iraq. You know the head of the DOS security detachment and the CO of the Marines will be preparing for the inevitable assault and takeover of the embassy by the Islamists a la Hostage Crisis 2.0.
ReplyDeleteI followed the link that Rodge posted above and then followed the link on that page to "The Man Who Killed Ghadaffi".

I don't think that I would want to shoot, party, share a public shower (you would have to demonstrate how to use it), etc. with these guys.
I concur that the entire region is falling under Islamic rule under BHO's watch, which was certainly his desire from the beginning.
Do we have enough nukes to make the mideast a layer of glass? You and I know this is the only solution that will work. Anything else will allow the rats to escape and spread the islamist disease. Don't give me that "peaceful religion" horseshit either. If you follow that baby raping "prophet" and take it word for word, you are commanded to kill the infidel - you and me. To say otherwise is disingenuous and even suicidal isn't it?

There is a subtle thing happening... the oil revenues will continue to fall due to peaking production, and if a real R is delected in 2012, the Gulf, the Left Coast, ANWR, and fracking will{could} produce energy independence, thus dropping the bottom out of oil prices. However, there are more mouths to feed in the ME than ever before.
ReplyDeleteJust peg the price of rice, wheat and corn to the price of sweet crude. Plus a reasonable excise tax to pay for 'peacekeeping' to date. Future fees to be determined.
There will be a hunger revolution if the 'brotherhood' takes over, IF the US has any cojones...

Let's hope tom - there are a couple of things important to an economy, not the least of which is mind-set. Right now, unless you're in the 20% who appear to be communists, ours is one of pessimism and doom. There's a few things that could change that in a heartbeat, and what you propose is one.
ReplyDeleteEven though it would be some years before those new oil resources are available to use, the fact that we're charging ahead would return our optimism. A good example is Reagan's election. It took two years before he was able to turn the Carter economy, but the Carter malaise ended immediately.
