This new Vote Vets ad will be airing in the Denver and Springs markets starting today.  To help keep it on the air, Vote Vets is asking for donations.

Transcript from the ad:

"I went to Iraq for my country. Bob Schaffer went to Iraq for a big oil company. I tried to secure peace in Iraq. Bob Schaffer tried to secure an oil deal in Iraq. Our time in Iraq left thousands with head trauma. Bob Schaffer's time in Iraq helped land a contract for oil. Too many vets can't get the care they need. Congressman Schaffer voted against billions in funds for veterans. We fought for our country. Why hasn't Bob Schaffer fought for us?"

Schaffer's record speaks for itself (from press release):

  • Schaffer was often only one of a small handful of Congressmen who voted against the annual appropriations for the Department of Veterans Affairs, including Fiscal Years 2000 (Oct 14, 1999), 2001 (Oct 19, 2000), 2002 (July 31, 2001 and Nov 8, 2001).  These bills appropriated billions in funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs.
  • On October 6, 1998, Schaffer voted against the VA-HUD Appropriations Conference Report which provided $93.4 billion in funding for veterans and other programs in Fiscal Year 1999.  Schaffer was only one of 14 to vote against the bill.
  • On October 30, 2001, Schaffer voted against funding Veterans Affairs Medical Programs to a level that would ensure that all of the programs were fully funded.

Our side has 527s too Dick.  This makes the whole Udall missed a vote, Udall missed a vote, look like a child's tantrum.  Well, it already looked like that.

regarding war in Iraq, saber rattling at Iran, and now a new war in the Republic of Georgia (0.00 / 0)

Re: H.R. 362 (Naval Blockade of Iran) and other belligerent acts.   Please find pasted below an essay on Middle East. A few points are excerpted first as teasers.

§ There's no time to lose!  Bush is drooling again, anticipating a quick conquest of Iran before his term expires. "I'll not talk appeasement!" exhorts the hysterical Bush.  "I'll not dialogue with my prey.  Appease bend over and drop your pants, I've got a lot of countries to do."
          Now he appears to have Georgia (South Ossetia) on his mind!
·    Little mention is made in the almost jingoistic American media of Iranian offers to consider privately run, domestic, commercial, enrichment facilities that would yield uranium fuel in appropriate concentrations to be used only in nuclear power plants.  This proposal should assuage international concern over reported Persian attempts to obtain nuclear concentration levels required for military use.  
·    The fact is that a 2006 Gallup World Poll shows only 17% of Iranians support the most extremist Muslim view that Islamic Shari'a law must be the only source of legislation, putting Iran nowhere near the top of the heap as far as radical Islamic nations goes.
·    While a handful of Americans have seen the light and can be found demonstrating with signs saying "No Blood for Oil!" they should add to their placards "No Blood for Matzo Balls or Easter Eggs!!"
·    If anything, the invasion of Poland ended Germany's appeasement of the Allies. With the end of WW I in 1919, over 150 years after its death by hacking and cleaving, a faint, flickering ghost of Poland was briefly conjured by the Allies at Versailles from conquered German lands.  This is the land reclaimed by Germany in 1939 and even then only after Allied refusal of reasonable German requests for unharassed passage to the neutral port of Danzig, on the German border.
·    If the Arc were found, in addition to possibly gaining the benefit of its legendary otherworldly powers, Wilhelm II could command respect as its guardian: a legitimate, reinvigorated Holy Roman Emperor.
·    While less than the Biblically promised lands - "from the Nile to the Euphrates" (Genesis 15: 18), which would also encompass a large slice of Eastern Africa...
·    Deuteronomy 20: 13-17, But of the cities of these peoples which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance, you shall let nothing that breathes remain alive. But you shall utterly destroy them...
·    Perhaps they have become too used to others, including six million of their brethren, paying the price?
·    We could easily turn Iraq over to the Arab League, or even OPEC, for governance, but again, the fact of the matter is that Americans are dying in Iraq to claim that land for Israel, unwitting front man, international intention laundering organization for fanatical Christian ambitions in the Middle East.
·    These days it is common to remember with condemnation the domestic WWII internment of Japanese Americans. But if we must eventually do battle with the minions of Moses and the cutthroats for Christ, how will we identify and isolate these legions of homegrown enemy agents, domestic terrorists and local, fifth column Quislings - completely indistinguishable from loyal Americans?

   There's no time to lose!  
   Bush is drooling again, anticipating a quick conquest of Iran before his term expires. "I'll not talk appeasement!" exhorts the hysterical Bush.  "I'll not dialogue with my prey.  Appease bend over and drop your pants, I've got a lot of countries to do."
   Now he appears to have Georgia (South Ossetia) on his mind!

   Scott McClellan's recent revelations about disingenuous White House schemes to sell the war in Iraq now sprinkle a few grains of salt on administration claims that Iran is supporting radicals in both Lebanon and Iraq or is rushing full tilt to acquire the bomb.
   Now, suspicious recent events, including the possible murder of the anthrax researcher Ivins and the commencement of a Russian-Georgian War under cover of both the Olympic opening ceremonies and Senator Edward's adultery confession is causing many to wonder how far the administration will go in its insanely corrupt mission to embezzle Middle Eastern oil wealth.
   Was Ivans assassinated to cover-up a post-911 plot by Bush to scare Americans into invading Iraq?  Was this scheme planned to enrich the Bush Oil Cartel by guaranteeing it exclucive access to Iraqi oil after the elimination of President Saddam Hussein?  Is the new war in Georgia ment to kidnap from Russia a pipeline designed to transport Middle Eastern oil?  What exactly are the motivations driving the so-called civilized nations of the West in their rapacious dealings in the Middle East?  And why do they continue to harrass the Arabs, Persians and other native populations of the area with a thorn in their foot - Israel, provoking oil embargos and prices hikes that are severely affecting not only Americans, but most people world wide, as well as their national economies?

   Little mention is made in the almost jingoistic American media of Iranian offers to consider private participation by other countries in its growing commercial enrichment facilities.  Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran, speaking at the 43rd Munich Conference on Security Policy on February 11, 2007, proclaimed: "We said that we are ready to have all of our nuclear activities in a consortium so that others can participate in our activities and as the result we build confidence."    
    These joint ventures, monitored by the International Atomic Energy Agency of the United Nations, could yield for export from Iran uranium fuel in appropriate concentrations to be used only in nuclear power plants.  Why shouldn't Iran join the growing move to Green solutions for our energy needs?
   (Mother Jones Magazine's Mojo Blog  "MojoConvo: Iran Panic?  Talk about it with the Experts."  June 28-July 5, 2008.   This information was introduced into the discussion by "Hass" in the comments section at 8:34am on 6/28/2008 and substantiated by "b" at 11:17 pm on 6/28/2008 with a link to a letter from Manuchehr Mottaki, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on May 13, 2008.)
   This proposal could assuage international concern over reported Persian attempts to obtain nuclear concentration levels required for military use.  It would also keep Iran, and other future nuclear powered countries, free from the threats of political blackmail from external suppliers of fuel for their power plants.  But we, the general public, hear nothing of it.  
   Even in an interview with Spiegel online international (February 26, 2007), United Nations General Secretary Ban Ki-moon evaded the question when reminded of Ali Larijani's proposition.
    The fact is that a 2006 Gallup World Poll shows only 17% of Iranians support the extremist Muslim view that Islamic Shari'a law must be the only source of legislation, putting Iran nowhere near the top of the heap as far as radical Islamic nations goes.   ("Gallup presents... Russian Muslims: Religious Leaven in Secular Society" Sergei Gradirovski, Research Advisor; Gallup World Poll and Neli Esipova, Senior Consultant, Gallup Organization.  Harvard International Review, Spring 2008 p.58)
   Furthermore, constant reports by the Western press that Iran wishes to annihilate and murder Jews are, to say the least, overblown, twisted mistranslations.
   The University of Michigan's Juan Cole, who has analyzed Middle Eastern events for television as recently as July 28, 2008 on PBS's News Hour with Jim Lehrer, in referring to a speech by Iran's President Ahmadi-Nejad repudiating claims of Iranian desire for nuclear weapons, said "The scholock Western pundits, journalists and politicians who keep maintaining that Ahmadi-Nejad threatened 'to wipe Israel of the map' when he never said those words, sill never, ever manage to choke out the words Ahmadi-Nejad spoke on Saturday, much less repeat them as a tag line forever after." (Informed Comment.com 8.27.06, From Twin Terrors (uranium enrichment program of Iran) Kurdish Life 59(Summer 2006))
   The Kurdish Life piece adds, "Virginia Tilley, a South African analyst, also challenged the version of Ahmadi-Nejad's remarks pervading U.S. news.  "The most infamous quote, 'Israel must be wiped off the map,' is the most glaringly wrong.  In his October 2005 speech, Mr. Ahmadi-Nejad never used the word 'map' or the term 'wiped off'....what he actually said was, "This regime that is occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the pages of time.'"
   "Mr. Ahmadi-Nejad was being prophetic, not threatening.  He was citing Imam Khomeini, who said this line in the1980's (a period when Israel was actually selling arms to Iran, so apparently it was not viewed as so ghastly then.)  
   "Mr. Ahmadi-Nejad had just reminded this audience that the Shah's regime, the Soviet Union, and Saddam Hussein had all seemed enormously powerful and immovable, yet the first two had vanished almost beyond recall and the third now languished in prison.  So, too, the 'occupying regime' in Jerusalem would someday be gone.  His message was, in essence, "This too shall pass.'"
   Ms. Tilley goes on to refute claims that Iran would pursue "the expulsion of Jews into the sea or the ravaging of their towns and cities..." ("Is Iran's President Really a Jew-hating, Holocaust-denying  Islamo-fascist who has threatened to "wipe Israel off the map"? Counterpunch, August 28, 2006)
   Yet, like an alarm clock gradually penetrating a deep sleep the drums of war have been beating steadily for some time now.  Will we waken in time to prevent yet another needless conflagration in our short, violent, pathetically misguided military history?  

   Every war we've ever fought was wrong headed; consistently inspired by insidious greed and hyper-inflated haught.  The Revolutionary, 1812, Mexican, Spanish - American, Civil, 1st and 2nd WWs, Korean, Vietnamese, Panamanian, Grenadine, Afghanistani and 1st and 2nd Iraqi wars.
·    Our revolutionary war was an adventure in extortion initiated by Washington. He had discovered from first hand experience, while working in his youth as a surveyor's assistant, the vast potential of the North American continent undreamed of even by King George III, and wanted a larger share of it for his heirs and himself.   Benjamin Franklin's extreme reluctance to participate in this treasonous rebellion gave the lie to its legitimacy.   In fact the overwhelming majority of colonials had neither motive nor opportunity to join the conspiracy.  ("Nine tenths of the population lived in the countryside, where the availability of cheap land plus the generally favorable climate and soil created a prosperous, independent farming community."   The Good Americans: The Loyalists In the American Revolution"  Wallace Brown, William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1969 New York. p.5)          
·    Given the validity of the previous claim, the War of 1812 was a justified British irredentist exercise.
·    President Polk's campaigns to steal Texas and the territory that makes up our current southwestern states of Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and California from Mexico, and wrest Washington and Oregon from England were typically presumptuous American plunderings, justified with invocations of  "Manifest Destiny".  
·    "Remember the Maine" was as dishonest a propaganda campaign as was "Regime Change" or "WMDs", which plunged us into war with Spain.
·    President Polk's campaigns to steal Texas and the territory that makes up our current southwestern states of Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and California from Mexico, and wrest Washington and Oregon from England was a typically presumptuous American plundering justified with invocations of Manifest Destiny.  
·   One wonders if the lives of American agricultural workers would have been much different if the South had successfully seceded!  Surely the lives of African-Americans improved very little with emancipation.  Didn't mass production and mechanization make slavery obsolete by 1908 anyway?   Quite arguably, the standard of living for laborers today is actually worse than that of antebellum times!
·    The First World War, caused by a simple, stupid feud within the interbred ruling royal family of England and Germany, again bred a succeeding legitimate war of irredentism.  
·     Our numerous Cold War humiliations - Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Granada, even Kosovo, to which Afghanistan and Iraq will ultimately be added - resulted from our unnecessarily stabbing Communists in the back.  
    Ceaselessly the bodies pile up, lives uselessly wasted, lives and property wantonly destroyed.  Shall we continue feeding our grotesque addiction with yet another unwarranted invasion?   While a handful of Americans have seen the light and can be found demonstrating with signs saying "No Blood for Oil!" they should add to their placards "No Blood for Matzo Balls or Easter Eggs!!"

   Actually, President Bush's recent remarks about appeasement were fundamentally flawed.  The stale, dog eared argument that Hitler's invasion of Poland terminated the Allies' policy of appeasement is just more of the same revisionist spinning of past events spewn by the victors throughout history.  We've heard it all for decades.  
   Yet there was no appeasement of Hitler for he did nothing inflammatory to appease.  Indeed, it was he who too long appeased the Allies.  If anything, the invasion of Poland ended Germany's appeasement of the Allies.
   Regaining Poland was nothing to get excited about. Gerrit P. Judd, in his text "A History of Western Civilization" 1966 Collier-MacMillan Limited, London, pp. 464-465, informs us that "Poland reached its peak of power and prosperity in the sixteenth century and declined thereafter."   In 1660, over a century before our Independence, after years of revolution during which "the cossacks slaughtered, with acts of bestial cruelty, not only Polish Christians but at least 100 thousand Polish Jews", chunks of Poland began to disappear.  
   When the succession of Augustus III to the throne in 1734 required the help of Russian troops, "it was apparent that Poland was little more than a satellite of Russia."   Years before our own revolution Poland was nearing extinction.  
   Finally, in 1772 the last, fatal partitions of this former European power began, with Russia, Prussia and Austria seizing a quarter of Poland.  More territorial losses followed in 1793, culminating in 1795 with the defeat of a final rebellion led by General Kosciusko, who had fought for the patriots in the American Revolution.  Poland was no more.  
   With the end of WW I in 1919, nearly 200 years after its mortal wounding and slow death by hacking and cleaving, a faint, flickering ghost of Poland was briefly conjured by the Allies at Versailles from conquered German lands.  This is the land reclaimed by Germany in 1939 and even then only after Allied refusal of reasonable German requests for unharassed passage to the neutral port of Danzig, on the German border.
   The rest, as they say, is history.  Belligerent Britain and the fearful French, exactly as before WW1 when they refused to allow Kaiser William II on the dais of world power with themselves and Tsarist Russia, again conspired to stop Germany from consolidating its commonwealth of confederated territories and becoming a peer.
   Two apocalyptically catastrophic wars later we find ourselves again in an almost identical situation.  

   Today the crisis revolves around Israel, Iraq and Iran, with a supporting cast of the U.S, Islam, Christianity and Zionism.  Instead of Poland, the ghost country this time is Israel; dead these 2000 years, conjured up from conquered Muslim lands by, you guessed it, our good friends, the British.  
    But as with the long suppressed truth of pre-Revolutionary majority support for England in the land that would soon claim to be the birthplace of modern democracy, a telling yet not commonly known fact this time is that, contrary to popular belief Israel is not a Jewish state.  
   Why?

   Everyone knows the story of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Arc.  What they don't know are the facts upon which it was based.
    In 1898 a race was on.  German Kaiser Wilhelm II had learned of secret, Palestinian mountain caves where the holy Arc of the Covenant was rumored to be hidden.  The British were also big on archaeology and probably had heard the same rumors.  
   In nearby Egypt just a few years later they discovered the cryptic, mystical tomb of King Tut, untouched for three millennium.  Speculation was rampant about what intense, bizarre, occult forces ancient artifacts of the mighty Pharaohs would possess.  
   This indeed may have been another reason why Britain didn't want the Kaiser getting stronger: they needed to keep Germany away from the Middle Eastern bounty of allegedly power endowing religious treasures and vast reserves of oil essential to political world hegemony.
   At any rate, young Wilhelm knew he was not yet strong enough to conquer the crumbling empire still ruled by Muslim Turkey in which the secret location lay. But while it would be impossible to establish a Christian nation in the land of Palestine, Wilhelm II hoped the Turkish Sultan Abdulhamet II would allow a small, autonomous Jewish homeland in that province of the Ottoman empire, from which Muslims could gain considerable tax revenue.   Especially since Wilhelm II had just backed the Turks in a major international crisis involving the Greeks and Turkish ruled Crete.  
   Just a few harmless Jews.  Who, of course, would owe the existence of their national park to the Kaiser and wouldn't object to some casual, anonymous, archaeological expeditions.  
   If the Arc were found, in addition to possibly gaining the benefit of its legendary otherworldly powers, Wilhelm II could command respect as its guardian: a legitimate, reinvigorated Holy Roman Emperor.  Of course Queen Victoria would turn green with envy, to say nothing of the French and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia.  And imagine the Jewish reaction to news of the most important Jewish, national, biblical treasure being discovered and nabbed right from under their noses!!!
   Oblivious to Wilhelm's true intentions, the Zionists themselves were also just a wee bit greedy, for on the day of the meeting with the Turkish Sultan Abdulhamit II, Theodor Herzl, the founding father of modern Zionism, decided to asked for the land  "from Gaza to the Euphrates", which would include all of modern day Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Syria, Lebanon and most of Iraq and present day Turkey, and incidentally, all the oil therein.  
   While geographically smaller than the Biblically promised lands - "from the Nile to the Euphrates" (Genesis 15: 18), which would also encompass a large slice of Eastern Africa - the British had already wrested Egypt from the Ottoman empire and occupied Sudan, Uganda and Kenya, Germany was ruling Tanzania, Portugal owned Malawi and Mozambique, Italy possessed Somalia and Eritrea while battling for Ethiopia, and the French had Madagascar.  Thus the land Herzl requested was the only "available" section left.
    However, such a concession would swallow all of the remaining Middle Eastern portions of the Ottoman empire, leaving the Turks, who in 1829 had lost Greece to independence with the Treaty of Adrianople, 1850 Algeria to France, 1875 44% of the Suez Canal to England, 1878 Bulgaria, Montenegro and Serbia to independence with the Treaty of San Stefano, 1881 Tunisia to France, and 1882 Egypt to England, only their tenuous Balkan holdings of southern Bulgaria, Macedonia and Thrace.
   Aghast, Sultan Abdulhamit II gasped, "You may dismember me, but you'll not vivisect me!"   ("Wilhelm II, The Kaiser's Personal Monarchy, 1888-1900" John C.G. Rohl, Cambridge University Press, 2004   P.950)
   Twenty years later, in the aftermath of WW I, the militarily powerful, but spiritually spineless British balked, just as Wilhelm did, at establishing a Christian nation even in the midst of the defeated Muslim masses, again miscalculating that a modest settlement of Jews in a small section of Palestine wouldn't ruffle feathers.  As a protectorate of Britain, this would be Christian land on loan to the Jews, certainly no threat to Imperial interests in the area, and possibly a step towards the return of Christ.
   The 1947 establishment of the so-called "secular" State of Israel again exploited the rampant impotence, insolvency and anarchy of the ruined Ottoman empire to reinforce this Christian sanctioned beachhead, strategically bolstered by sympathy and guilt generating accounts of the Holocaust.
   Even Truman's 1948 recognition of Israeli independence was a bold faced ploy, coldly calculated not only to win back desperately needed votes from liberal Democrats he'd alienated in tacitly supporting the anti-labor Taft-Hartley act by his actions during the 1946 railroad strike.   He had further angered these important supporters with the anti-Communist containment policies of the Truman Doctrine and Marshall plans.  
   In recognizing Israel, Truman was also trying to woo critical votes of Fundamentalist Christian Dixicrats opposed to his belated, lukewarm foray as champion of African-American civil rights, which itself was a slyly contrived catering to the vital votes of both blacks and liberals.  ("The New Israel and the Old: Why Gentile Americans Back the Jewish State" Walter Russell Mead  Foreign Affairs July/August 2008 p.41)  

   And so it remains to this day: a Christian established nation in the midst of a sea of Muslims, hidden behind a veiled ethereal phantom - the reincarnated Nation of Israel.  While "Defense of the Jewish Homeland" is our public, proxy agenda, Christian control is our true aim as we attempt to justify the confiscation and securing of this biblically delineated territory.
   Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Turkey, and, incidentally, all the oil therein.  
   (I'm going to repeat that last bit just for emphasis. "and, incidentally, all the oil therein."  !!!   More and more this obsession appears to be the single factor driving Bush's buccaneers to ally themselves with the  Judeo-Christian gangsters.)
   With annexation of Iran, the deed to Afghanistan, (Kashmir, next door, is a "no man's land"), and "liberation" of Tibet, this behemoth balloons to the very borders of Myanmar.
   As the Bible is mute as to latitudinal boundaries, dominion could technically range north from Durban, South Africa; consuming much or all of Mozambique, Malawi, Madagascar, Seychelles, Comoros, Mauritius, Zambia, Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, Kenya, Uganda, Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti, Sudan, Egypt, and on through central Ukraine to include all of Russia between Leningrad, Moscow and the Barents Sea.
   Meanwhile, Christianity dominates Europe, North and South America, Australia and Northern Asia from the Urals to the Bering Straits.  Former European colonial domination and insidious missionary creep led to the Christian infestation of Africa from Dakar to Mogadishu, Cape Town to Cairo.   Furthermore the islands of the South Pacific, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, China, and the countries of Indochina have long been targeted by evangelicals of every stripe.

   Christian tentacles literally encircle the globe, in anticipation of the day when:
    "it shall come to pass that from one New Moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh shall come to worship before Me," says the Lord.  "And they shall go forth and look upon the corpses of the men who have transgressed against Me.  For their worm does not die, and their fire is not quenched.  They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh." (Isaiah 66: 23,24)  
   Moreover, "the...unbelieving...shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."  (Rev. 21: 08)
   This cult has from its inception condoned and codified slavery and institutionalized a strategic military doctrine of rape, plunder and genocide not unlike that which the rampaging Janjaweed militias seem to be preemptively copying from their Judeo Christian foes with the atrocities presently inflicted on the peoples of Darfur.
   (Deuteronomy 20: 13-17,  "And when the Lord your God delivers it [a city] into your hands, you shall strike every male in it with the edge of the sword.  But the women, the little ones, the livestock, and all that is in the city, all its spoil, you shall plunder for yourself; and you shall eat the enemies' plunder which the Lord your God gives you. Thus you shall do to all the cities which are very far from you, which are not of the cities of these nations. But of the cities of these peoples which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance, you shall let nothing that breathes remain alive. But you shall utterly destroy them: The Hittite and the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, just as the Lord your God has commanded you"    
   Numbers 31: 15,17,18  "And Moses said to them: 'Have you kept all the women alive? ... Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately.  But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately.'"  
   Psalms 137: 8,9   O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed, happy the one who repays you as you have served us!  Happy the one who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock!  
   Leviticus 25: 44,45  "And as for your male and female slaves whom you may have - from the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.  Moreover you may buy the children of the strangers who dwell among you, and their families who are with you, which they beget in your land; and they shall become your property"
   Matthew 13: 25  "But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made.")
   The very existence of these theological tenets, cornerstones of the pulpit from which Moses and Jesus preached, undermines, indeed eliminates, the authenticity and sanctity of the deity by whom they were decreed.
   Little wonder then that we see nervous perspiration bead the brows of leaders in North Korea, Myanmar, Iran, and Venezuela.  Alone, against all odds, these brave men dare battle the gargantuan.   Anxiety haunts their people, from the innocuous grandmother to the seemingly incomprehensible suicide bomber fanatic.   For in defeat they join the legions of subjugated, subservient androids, under the yoke of those wearing the new, sacrilegiously mutated, perversely reversed, Stripes and Stars.  
   Incredulously, with eternal naiveté, echoing the Texas polygamist wives, the Ugly Americans still ask: "But doesn't everybody want to live this way?"

We have seen that, just as in 1939, when German re-occupation of phantom possessed Poland was declared an invasion of a real, tangible, venerated ally, so current Muslim efforts to protect their homelands from the very real specter of nuclear armed, insatiable incubi - Israel, and its absentee Christian landlords - are again, incredibly, challenged as threats of invasion and annihilation of a legitimate entity.
   We have seen the man who fathered the Truman Doctrine, which was adopted to prevent coercion by "countries which sought to impose their will and their way of life upon other nations", turn a blind eye to the true imperialist intent of Jews and Christians.
   (An intent proudly heralded in their most holy religious literature:
   "Let them [the nations that resist submitting to domination by Jewish invaders] be put to shame and perish, That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth." Psalms 83:17, 18.  
    "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations"  Matthew 28:19)
   We have seen that by establishing the 1957 Eisenhower Doctrine, which extended the Truman Doctrine's invocation against coercion to all non-communist countries, but most especially Egypt, Syria and Israel's other neighbors, we hypocritically joined the gang rape of the Middle East, impregnating it with a ferocious, ravenous litter of homicidal wolves intent, as with Romulus and Rome, on empire.
   We have seen, amazingly, the same people claiming exclusive status as the "chosen" and "preordained elect" of God, act as if ethically impervious and morally immune to the mayhem their insanity understandably evokes.  Has it not occurred to them that egotistical domination is not worth the cost?  Perhaps they have become too used to others, including six million of their brethren, paying the price?

   When Americans, especially politicians and news pundits, pretentiously talk about national defense and national security, they assume that the rest of the world understands they are referring to security and defense against attacks on us by Muslims.  
   It is getting very late in the game to realize that our best security and defensive interests lie in helping Islamic nations protect themselves from colonial, imperial and even religious expansionist threats coming from our side of their borders.  Securing those borders of weaker nations from external attack by our allies and US is the best way to proactively and preemptively prevent retaliatory "terrorist" strikes.
   Present day Iraq is our latest Frankenstein's monster, brought back to life from the murdered remains of Saddam Hussein's domain, just one more incantation, another ghoul in our International House of Horror.  Why are our young soldiers dying real deaths to protect an apparition? Our troops are not defending U.S. interests in any way.  What possible benefit to us can there be?  We're certainly not getting lower gas prices.
   We could easily turn Iraq over to the Arab League, or even OPEC, for governance, but again, the fact of the matter is that Americans are dying in Iraq to claim that land for Israel, unwitting front man, international intention laundering organization for fanatical Christian ambitions in the Middle East. Our soldiers are dying in preliminary, proxy battles of the Jewish Apocalyptic Christian campaign for East Africa, the entire Middle East, and eventually, world domination.
   Technically land conquered by Americans flying the American flag belongs to America.  This is why our troops are not fighting under the American flag.  Few have noticed that thing sewn on uniforms of American military forces.  Those are not American flags; they are some sort of evil, deformed, malignant tumor.  And land controlled by those wearing this diabolical, mutant flag, the land our kids are dying for, will be claimed and governed, not by the people of the United States of America, but by Fundamentalist Christians, through their stooge, Israel.
   Iran seems to be the next victim of our bloodthirsty, maniacal, Judeo Christian, premeditated, serial killing, Western Civilization bred, nonpagan barbarians.   And now Georgia, target of the Bush's latest war in, launched under cover the Olympics, can only be another falling domino.
   Will Jews and Apocalyptic Christians succeed in this surreptitious hunt?  Eventually the quarry of this crusade will fight back with a vigor much more wide spread and disastrous than the lucky 911 strike at a nearly abandoned cube farm.  Surely Putin will join Ahmadi-Nejad to stand firm.
   How long will we continue this senseless slaughter?  Do we even have the ability to stop it?

   These days it is common to remember with condemnation the domestic WWII internment of Japanese Americans.  Yet at the time there was genuine trepidation as to which country these U.S. citizens really bore allegiance.  
   In the near future, large numbers of Jewish and Christian Americans might feel duty bound to betray the constitutionally mandated, secular United States of American, for a usurping theocracy of Zion.  For many that day has long since arrived.  
   But if we must eventually do battle with the minions of Moses and the cutthroats for Christ, how will we identify and isolate these legions of homegrown enemy agents, domestic terrorists and local, fifth column Quislings - completely indistinguishable from loyal Americans?  They already infiltrate every level of our military and civilian institutions.  From them we hold no secrets.
   We may as well sew the Star of David or the red, Knights Templar Cross on our shoulders now.
   Offers to establish new homelands for these truculent descendants of the bloody Hebrews, in some sparsely populated areas of the American West - New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, North or South Dakota, Idaho, Alaska - or even the Northwest Territories of Canada, elicit only blank, bewildered stares.  
   An end to this insanity requires far more than simply asking Judeo Christians to rise from their expansionist dream.  Perhaps we must prepare to shake them awake.
