Leaders of Afghanistan: "We shall NEVER surrender!"


Remember this old speech by Sir Winston Churchill? Let me paraphrase it for you, so that you might understand how the people of Afghanistan view our occupation: "We shall fight them in the hills and in the valleys, we shall fight them on their landing grounds, we shall never surrender.
"The situation in Afghanistan is deteriorating", said President Obama, as he announced deployment of an additional 17,000 troops. "There is no military solution in Afghanistan" says Secretary of Defense Robert Gates. Said US Commander General David McKiernan yesterday, US and Nato forces are stalemated. The retreat from Central Asia is already underway. Expelled from our K-2 air base in Uzbekistan in 2005, the United States has now been ordered out of the Manas air base in Kyrgystan.
It's Time to cut our losses, Mr. President!! unless you can figure out how to resurrect our dead.

After the Reich: The Brutal History of Allied Occupation


Brutal History of Allied Occupation? You'd better believe it - As a matter of fact, since my family and I barely survived that gruesome period of American history, I suspect that the author, Giles MacDonogh, may actually be soft-peddling America's guilt (and that of the other war criminals who were her accomplices).
As the author truthfully states, General Eisenhower denied us access to foreign aid, forcing Germans to subsist on no more than 1200 calories a day.
Over a million German POWs died in "Allied" captivity, and at least 2 million women were raped by the Soviets. Hundreds of thousands of us died in brutal deportations. The author has drawn from a vast array of first-person accounts to give a voice to the millions of innocent German civilians who, having lost a brutal war, including the wanton destruction of the beautiful city of Dresden, annexation of my homeland in Schlesien, and who now found themselves struggling to survive a hellish "peace". Please click on the headline, and read "After the Reich: The Brutal History of the Allied Occupation" by Giles MacDonogh, only $12.89 at http://www.amazon.com/

Gruesome Harvest: American Casualties in Iraq

In his book: "A Republic, Not an Empire", Pat Buchanon, reminded Americans that by abandoning the foreign policy rooted in the wisdom of our Founding Fathers and the giants of American statesmanship - George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay, and Andrew Jackson will always have extremely serious consequences, which are inevitably borne by our nation's sons and daughters. So far, they have paid a very high price for ignoring Pat's warning. Since our war against the people of Iraq began, they have suffered at least 4237 deaths, and over 100,000 wounded. In Afghanistan we are now up to 644 military deaths, plus 317 deaths of our coalition partners in Iraq, 422 other military deaths, and at least 446 deaths of our contractors in Iraq.

Unfortunately, this is only part of the story, and we continue to slide down a slippery slope. If we continue to stumble along in that politically sensitive region and Pakistan's nuclear weapons fall into the hands of our enemies, who knows what horrors we will then be forced to confront? Check out the January 11, 2009 New York Times story: "The Worst Pakistan Nightmare for Obama" by David E. Sanger about the problems that country has in keeping those nukes out of the hands of Islamic Militants, if you don't mind losing several nights.

Shlomo Sand: When and How Were The Jewish People Invented?


In his book Matai ve'ech humtza ha'am hayehudi (When and How Was the Jewish People Invented?) (sic) What if the Palestinian Arabs who have lived for decades under the heel of the modern Israeli state are in fact descended from the same "children of Israel" described in the Old Testament? And what if most modern Israelis are not descended from the ancient Israelites at all, but are actually a mix of Europeans, North Africans and others who didn't "return" to the scrap of land we now call Israel and establish a new state following the attempt to exterminate them during World War II, but came in and forcefully displaced people whose ancestors had lived there for millennia? What if the entire tale of the Jewish Diaspora - the story recounted at Passover tables by Jews around the world every year, detailing the ancient Jews' exile from Judea, the years spent wandering through the desert, their escape from the Pharaoh's clutches is all wrong? That is the explosive thesis of When and How Was the Jewish People Invented? a book by Tel Aviv University scholar Shlomo Zand (or Sand) that has sent shockwaves across Israeli society when it was published last year.

Chomsky: No Change Coming With Obama

The first message of the Pakistani government to General David Petraeus, when he took command of the region was that they did not want any more bombings in Pakistan. The first message by Hamid Karzai was the same. But would Obama listen? NOO!!
I believe that both wanted a timetable for the withdrawal of foreign troops: US and others from their respective countries.

As Pervez Hoodbhoy, a well-known physicist pointed out, these kind of massacres will stimulate terror and reactions. Obama probably missed the physics course, where they taught:
"For every action,
there is an equal, and opposite reaction!
