And, that is an indisputable fact!
The UN has been neutered by the U.S.. And Usian’s are impotent to do anything to rectify that travesty of international justice!A decline in courage may be the most striking feature that an outside observer notices in the West today. The Western world has lost its civic courage, both as a whole and separately, in each country, in each government, in each political party, and, of course, in the United Nations. Such a decline in courage is particularly noticeable among the ruling and intellectual elites, causing an impression of a loss of courage by the entire society. There are many courageous individuals, but they have no determining influence on public life.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-01-09/looking-savior-president-slave-mentalityI would further posit, looking for any “savior” is a slave mentality.
But that seems to be the thing we do…
I can’t recall a time after November 22, 1963, when that hasn’t been true.
It was very likely our first 9/11/2001.
We’ve never recovered, but epically fail to realize that; and at our peril.
Now; it’s too late…January 10, 2018 at 5:17 pm #38171Chris MParticipantV. Arnold,
There certainly were assassinations of US presidents that occurred before Kennedy that were politically motivated. But you’re right. Kennedy’s was brutal on purpose to send a message over television for all to see.
The more I monitor the utter ignorance and naivety of the citizens of the US, the more freightened and sad I become.
On the otherhand, I take solace in a biblical passage that has kept coming to my mind, as of late.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.” Matthew 5:9
January 10, 2018 at 8:26 pm #38173Diogenes ShruggedParticipantSpeaking of utter ignorance and naivety, I asserted here recently that all forms of money, including Bitcoin, are forms of barter. I see now where I was mistaken.
January 10, 2018 at 11:53 pm #38175NassimParticipant“Much of the increase is due to the battles to retake Islamic State strongholds in Mosul”
We must not forget how ISIS took over Mosul in the twinkling of an eye. They stormed the place with hundreds of brand-new Toyotas equipped with heavy machine-guns from over 100 miles away. Somehow, the USAF, US satellites and all those drones failed to see the preparations for this attack – which must have taken months – and failed to attack this vast column of vehicles in the open desert.
Furthermore, it is obvious that the communications systems of the defenders were messed up and that they received false and contradictory information and orders – to sow confusion. The Americans could not have done it alone – they needed Arabic-speaking Israelis.
I did a search on FT.com and all their old articles about what a pushover this was for ISIS have disappeared. Here is what they had to say 4 months later.
“The Saqlawiya debacle, in which an experienced army unit was once again quickly overcome by Isis, rattled Iraqi political and security officials and western strategists. Both Iraqi and western officials have struggled to formulate an effective strategy to push back against Isis after the group seized control of much of northwestern Iraq in a lightning offensive in June”
If the US is to avoid committing troops to its campaign against Isis, Iraq’s army must be reinvented
Note how the victims of this information war are being portrayed as grossly incompetent. There is not reference to the USAF which had a large number of A-10 ground-attack aircraft nearby. In WW2, everyone learnt from the North African Campaign that whomsoever controlled the air could defeat any attempt to attack or invade across open desert.
In sum, it is quite appropriate for the title of this article to start with “The Fog of War ..”
January 11, 2018 at 1:03 am #38178tabarnickParticipantactually, the number of migrants dying over the Mediterranean is down about 40% in 2017. This is because European countries and Libya, over the objections of bleeding heart humanitarian imbeciles, have finally taken some timid measures to discourage the human traffickers. Discouraging people from Africa and Asia from moving to Europe is the best way to minimize human loss of lives and prevent Europe from sinking ever lower into poverty, crime, crumbling social safety net and social unrest. Once illegal immigrants know it is futile to try to get to Europe, they will stop boarding those rafts AND NO ONE WILL DIE. Those who insist on taxiing the refugees from barely off the coast of Libya to Italy are the ones who have deaths on their conscience.
