AMERICAN HYPOCRISY...COMPARING USA TO ISRAEL

GIVEN THAT THE UNITED STATES HAS SENT SECRETARY OF STATE AFTER SECRETARY OF STATE, SENATORS, AND PRIVATE CITIZENS TO PRESSURE ISRAEL TO GIVE UP YET MORE OF ITS MINUSCULE NATION AND HAS ACCUSED ISRAEL OF ALL OF THE FOLLOWING, PUBLICLY CONDEMNING ISRAEL AND THREATENING TO CONSIDER SANCTIONS AND REDUCTIONS IN ARMS SALES, ETC, I WANTED TO SHOW ALL THE WORLD WHAT A HYPOCRITE AMERICA IS.

SHE'S MY COUNTRY, BUT OUR NEFARIOUS POLITICIANS HAVE MADE HER INTO A LYING, HYPOCRITICAL WHORE TO THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX AND TO THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING CARTEL AND TO THE ACCURSED UNITED NATIONS. 

MY COUNTRY HAS A SPREADING CANCER AND WE, THE PEOPLE, NEED TO GET HER INTO SURGERY AND CARVE IT OUT BEFORE IT KILLS HER...AND ALL OF US AND OUR RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS ALONG WITH HER!
I LOVE MY COUNTRY, BUT I HAVE GROWN TO LOATHE HER "LEADERS", HER POLITICIANS, AND HER DOGS OF WAR.

I OFFER HERE JUST THE FACTS ON AMERICAN HYPOCRISY, HOPING THAT IT MAY SERVE AS A MIRROR FOR US ALL TO LOOK INTO IN ORDER TO SEE WHAT MUST BE CHANGED IN OUR OWN NATION BEFORE WE CAST STONES AT ANY OTHER NATIONS.


~ISRAEL KEPT A SMALL AREA OF THE LARGER LAND MASS GIVEN BACK TO HER BY THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS, AND A SMALLER AREA OF LAND IT CONQUERED BY WAR?
 
AMERICA KEEPS LAND IT CONQUERED BY THE GENOCIDE OF AT LEAST 28 MILLION NATIVE TRIBAL PEOPLE, AND BY OVER 500 BROKEN TREATIES, ILLEGAL LAND GRABS, AND HER WAR WITH MEXICO.  
A United Nations investigator probing discrimination against Native Americans has called on the US government to return some of the land stolen from Indian tribes as a step toward combating continuing and systemic racial discrimination.
"I'm talking about restoring to indigenous peoples what obviously they're entitled to and they have a legitimate claim to in a way that is not divisive but restorative. That's the idea behind reconciliation," he said.
But any such proposal is likely to meet stiff resistance in Congress similar to that which has previously greeted calls for the US government to pay reparations for slavery to African-American communities.  

"American Holocaust. Columbus and the Conquest of the New World" (Oxford University Press 1992), David E. Stannard
The American Indian Holocaust, know as the "500 year war", the "World's Longest Holocaust In The History Of Mankind And GREATEST SINGLE INSTANCE of Loss Of Human Lives."  

While Mexico was at war with Spain, thousands of white colonists, cattleman, adventures, and mercenaries, were coming from other parts of North America that had been already invaded and occupied looking for land and gold they could find and obtain “by any means.” These mercenaries fixed their eyes and interest in what is today “Texas,” placed themselves in land plots, and later enlarged their population so that by 1835 there were more white foreigners than native Mexicans in the area.  In 1836 the white foreigners occupied most of the territory by force, declared “independence” and called the stolen lands “Republic of Texas.” This bandit’s act caused the war between Mexico and the United States for the first time until the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed between the two countries on February 2, 1848. Mexico lost the land the whites called “Texas” but subsequently the rest of the Northern territories which eventually became part of the whole mass land known today as the US “Southwest.”
The land stolen from Mexico is bigger than Germany and France combined and considered to be among the riches in the world where an abundance of gold was found after the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed.

~ISRAELI CONTINUES AN EMBARGO OF GAZA?
AMERICA'S EMBARGO OF CUBA.  
The world is much changed since the early days of 1962, but one thing has remained constant: The United States’ economic embargo on Cuba, a near-total trade ban that turned 52 YEARS ONGOING in February of this year.
The embargo is a constant talking point for island authorities, who blame it for shortages of everything from medical equipment to the concrete needed for highway construction. Cuba frequently fulminates against the “blockade” at the United Nations and demands the United States end its “genocidal” policy. Every fall, a vast majority of nations back a resolution condemning the embargo.  

~ISRAEL'S WALL TO KEEP OUT TERRORISTS AND SUICIDE BOMBERS?

AMERICA'S WALL TO KEEP OUT MEXICAN, CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICAN PEOPLE. 
There are some parts of The Wall which are in three layers. It was discovered that illegal aliens and drug smugglers would crash even ten cars through the fence at one time and force a clear path. To stop this the US Border Patrol installed a triple barrier. First there is the steel barrier above, then another barrier and then a last defense of 20 ft high concrete posts pounded deep into the ground.
National Guard members raised the height of the fence on the San Isidro/Tijuana border. The fence is being built by the Guard and private contractors. 

Between cynicism and hypocrisy lies the 2,000-mile U.S.- Mexico border. America is raising a wall in the desert to separate Mexican drug exporters from American drug consumers, to separate Latin American peasants who will work for low wages from the Americans who would hire them. 
The Great Wall of America descends into canyons and across the desert floor.
.Mexico's Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported 117 cases of human rights abuses by US officials against migrants from 1988 to 1990, including fourteen deaths. During the 1980s, Border Patrol agents shot dozens of people, killing eleven and permanently disabling ten."
On May 28, 1994, Martín García Martínez was shot by a Border Patrol agent at the San Ysidro port of entry. He died on July 3 as a result of his injuries.  
In May 2000, an illegal immigrant was shot in the shoulder by a border patrolman near Brownsville, Texas, and died later from the wounds.  
"Agent cleared in 2005 border shooting". Los Angeles Times. Under the Border Patrol's use-of-force guidelines, agents are permitted to employ lethal force against rock throwers if they pose a threat. 
In January 2007, border patrol agent Nicholas Corbett shot and killed Francisco Javier Domínguez Rivera. Mexico lodged an official protest with the United States over the death stating its “firm condemnation” and “serious concern over the recurrence of this type of incident.”  
On February 8, 2007, four gunmen of unknown nationality opened fire on a truck carrying illegal immigrants in the Ironwood Forest National Monument, killing two men and a 15-year-old girl. 
On May 28, 2010, Anastasio Rojas, a 42-year-old Mexican migrant worker, was tased and beaten at the San Ysidro border crossing by more than a dozen Customs and Border Protection officers.
  Rojas' death was featured on the PBS News Magazine "Need to Know" in April 2012, in which several civilian eyewitnesses gave their testimony and provided two amateur videos of the event. According to the witnesses, he was face-down on the ground and handcuffed while he was being tased and beaten, all the while being surrounded by twelve officers. 
On June 2010, a 15-year-old Mexican citizen was shot to death on the Mexican side of the border near El Paso, Texas. The U.S Border Patrol reported that the officers responded to a group of suspected illegal immigrants who were throwing rocks at them, SHOOTING ACROSS THE BORDER. President Felipe Calderón criticized the shooting by stating that "the use of firearms to repel attacks with stones represents disproportionate use of force".

In 2000, the United Nations opened an investigation into vigilante killings of migrants crossing Mexico's border with the USA, dispatching a senior UN investigator to the border country close to where Sam Blackwood, a 74-year-old rancher, was charged with killing Eusebio de Haro, an unarmed Mexican he tried to subdue for the border patrol and fatally shot after pursuing him a quarter mile down the road in his truck.

In November 2013 the Office of the Medical Examiner in Pima County, Arizona, had 871 cases of unidentified remains dating as far back as the 1990s.

~ISRAEL USES "DISPROPORTIONATE FORCE" AGAINST ROCK-THROWING GAZANS?
AMERICA USES POLICE BRUTALITY AGAINST PEACEFUL, UNARMED PROTESTERS!

AMERICA SHOOTS COLLEGE STUDENTS!
The guardsmen fired 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others, one of whom suffered permanent paralysis.

Dozens of US cities unite in protests against police brutality ... All across the US people united to protest police violence in rallies.
Dozens of cities across the US have seen a national day of protest against police brutality. Organizers stated that thousands of people were killed in crackdowns over the last couple of decades, and police aren’t held accountable for the violence.

LAWS REMAIN "ON THE BOOKS" ALLOWING WHITE AMERICANS TO SHOOT AMERICAN INDIANS ON SIGHT!
IN IOWA, You may shoot Native Americans if more than five of them are on your property.
IN MAINE, Shotguns are required to be taken to church in the event of aN INDIAN ATTACK.
IN PENNSYLVANIA, A group of 5 or more Native Americans are to be considered a raiding party and may be killed on the spot.
IN MONTANA, 7 or more Indians together is considered a raiding party. Until recently you were advised to shoot to kill.
SOUTH DAKOTA considers 3 or more Indians together a raiding party. Aim and fire.
UP UNTIL THE 1950s, IT WAS ADVISED THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS SHOOT DRUNKEN INDIANS ON SIGHT.

~ISRAEL USES RACIAL PROFILING?
AMERICA WROTE THE BOOK ON RACIAL PROFILING!
Notwithstanding the fact that racial profiling is unconstitutional, and despite the emphatic declaration from the federal government that the practice is "insidious," "wrong," "ineffective," and "harmful to our rich and diverse democracy," quantitative and qualitative evidence collected at the federal, state, and local levels confirms that racial profiling persists. Moreover, as the evidence also shows, racial profiling is often encouraged by misguided federal programs and policies that incentivize law enforcement authorities to engage in the practice.

In 2008, as the result of a discovery request in Floyd v. City of New York, a lawsuit filed against the New York City Police Department ("NYPD") alleging racial profiling and suspicion-less stops-and-frisks against law-abiding New York City residents, the Center for Constitutional Rights received and analyzed data collected by the NYPD for the years 2005 to mid-2008. The Center found that:
* From 2005 to mid-2008, approximately 80 percent of total stops made were of Blacks and Latinos, who comprise 25 percent and 28 percent of New York City’s total population, respectively. During this same time period, only about 10 percent of stops were of Whites, who comprise 44 percent of the city’s population.
* Of the cumulative number of stops made during the three and one-half year period, only 2.6 percent resulted in the discovery of a weapon or contraband. Although rates of contraband yield were minute across all racial groups, stops made of Whites proved to be slightly more likely to yield contraband. [YET FEWER WHITES WERE STOPPED OR FRISKED!]

~ISRAEL IS INDIFFERENT TO U.N. SANCTIONS?
AMERICA BASICALLY TOLD THE U.N. TO GO TO HELL WHEN BUSH COULDN'T GARNER SUPPORT FOR HIS INVASION OF THE MIDDLE EAST!

WHEN U.N. ADVISORS SWORE THERE WERE NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION INSIDE IRAQ, BUSH TOLD THE WHOLE WORLD WHAT HE THOUGHT OF THE U.N.!

IT'S TIME WE STOPPED OUR INMATES FROM RUNNING THE ASYLUM HERE!
IT'S TIME WE FORCE THEM TO SEE THAT WE WON'T BE DUPED ANYMORE!

AMERICA DOESN'T NEED TO BE THE BULLY TO THE ENTIRE PLANET!
WE NEED TO FOCUS ON FIXING AMERICA!

EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO NUCLEAR WASTE CONTAINERS AT NEW MEXICO'S WIPP IS EXTENSIVE

JUST ONE OF MANY DAMAGED CONTAINERS, AND STILL NO ANSWERS AS TO HOW MANY THERE ARE, WHERE THEY ARE, OR HOW LONG, IF EVER, THEY WILL REMAIN UNMOVED.

The May 15 entry into Panel 7, Room 7 at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad, N.M., produced this photo of a waste container with its lid unsealed and apparent heat discoloration. Investigators are still considering a number of theories for the Valentine’s Day incident.

Investigators are still considering a number of theories for the Valentine’s Day incident. (Photo courtesy U.S. Department of Energy)
The New Mexico Environment Department demanded Tuesday that the federal government seal off two underground storage rooms in a nuclear waste repository to prevent the possibility of another radiation leak.
In its second administrative order to the U.S. Department of Energy this week, the state Environment Department is asking for detailed proposals for the “expedited closure” of Panel 6 and part of Panel 7 at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant located 26 miles southeast of Carlsbad.
Those panels — large rooms excavated from a deep salt mine to hold nuclear waste — contain drums that are believed to have caused a hot reaction that led to a radiation release on Valentine’s Day. Waste from Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) has been fingered as the possible culprit, although additional barrels of waste originated from Savannah River National Laboratory in South Carolina.
The Environment Department is giving DOE 10 days to submit its proposal.
Calls to the DOE’s Carlsbad Field Office and WIPP contractor Nuclear Waste Partnership were not immediately returned Tuesday.
The state agency emphasized that the order does not mean a permanent shutdown of the whole WIPP facility.

The transuranic nuclear waste is packaged in “streams,” or sets of containers holding similar radioactive and other materials. There are more than 500 drums in the stream of waste potentially containing the dangerous mix of nitrate salts and cat litter.

MAY???
IT ALREADY HAS...SINCE FEBRUARY!!!

How and when WIPP closes the underground panels has been a long-running issue that predates the facility’s current woes, said Don Hancock, a nuclear waste expert at Albuquerque’s Southwest Research and Information Center.
Panels 1, 2 and 5 are each sealed with a 12-foot concrete explosion isolation wall, while Panels 3 and 4 are closed with a steel bulkhead and lack the explosion isolation wall.
“DOE has been saying the more robust requirements were unnecessary,” Hancock said. “A bulkhead keeps people from going in and out, and it doesn’t totally cut off but restricts the air flow supply. That’s not going to be sufficient.”
State Environment Secretary Ryan Flynn echoed demands made by the public at a recent meeting in Carlsbad for the open panels to be sealed, saying, “I agree those panels need be closed immediately.”

Republican Congressman Steve Pearce of Hobbs said he believes the state is acting beyond its authority.
[NOTE: REPUBLICAN? THEN HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN AN "ENVIRONMENT" OR TOXIC WASTE, RIGHT?]
“I don’t think we’re at the point to say we should shut it down,” he said. “I don’t think the state has the expertise (to be making the decision), so I don’t think there could be a good outcome.”

According to the state order, the waste is subject to the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Environmental Protection Agency HAS granted the state authority to enforce the law at federal sites within the state’s borders.>>

[NOTE: REPUBLICANS DON'T READ? WHO KNEW? NEITHER PARTY READS THE BILLS THEY PASS BLINDLY UP ON CAPITOL HILL! ]

During an April 17 town hall meeting, Tammy
Reynolds, the DOE’s deputy recovery manager, said that
workers found surface contamination in the area of Panel
7 during a fourth trip into the mine the previous day.
“The more they got into Panel 7 it became more widespread,”
she said. On April 18 the DOE confirmed that
based on the location of a continuous air monitor alarm
and the information gathered during the previous entry,
the event likely occurred in Panel 7.

WILL WIPP CLOSE?
NOT IF THE NRC HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT!

SHOULD IT CLOSE?
IT SHOULD HAVE EVER BEEN OPENED!

USDA WILDLIFE SERVICES KILLS MILLIONS OF ANIMALS EVERY YEAR

This infamous photo of the severed heads of 11 mountain lions was taken by an outraged employee of the Arizona Game and Fish Department. These animals were among 24 lions killed by the federal agency Animal Damage Control (now called Wildlife Services) in the Galiuro mountains of Arizona, a wilderness area North of Willcox. All were killed on federal lands on the Coronado National Forest over a six-month period.


THE "SERVICE" CATERS TO WHINING RANCHERS, SCARED HOMEOWNERS, TERRIFIED CAMPERS, AND JUST ABOUT ANYBODY AFRAID OF THE "LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS, OH, MY!"

THE 4 MILLION KILLED IN 2013 WAS NOT A TOP YEAR FOR POISONINGS, KILL-TRAPPINGS, SHOOTINGS, SNARINGS, PITTINGS, ETC, THE BRAVE FOLKS FROM "WILDLIFE SERVICES" ENGAGE IN EVERY DAY OF EVERY YEAR!

The more than 4 million animals shot, poisoned, snared or trapped by the Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services in fiscal 2013 included 75,326 coyotes, 866 bobcats, 528 river otters, 3,700 foxes, 12,186 prairie dogs, 973 red-tailed hawks, 419 black bears and at least three golden and bald eagles.
Though there’s a list of animals killed, there’s little data showing the cause for each killing, the methods used and the reasons behind mistakes that lead to massive kills of animals that aren’t targeted.
At least two members of Congress have called Wildlife Services secret and opaque for failing to provide more information, and there are mounting calls for an investigation into how it operates.
Wildlife Services says that it responds to requests by government agencies nationwide and works to “resolve human/wildlife conflicts” in a strategic way.

IN 2014, 3 MILLION ANIMALS WERE LISTED AS KILLED, BUT NOT ALL ANIMALS KILLED ARE LISTED.

Wildlife Services says that it responds to requests by government agencies nationwide and works to “resolve human/wildlife conflicts” in a strategic way.

Ranchers and farmers pay half the agency’s costs of killing animals that they view as a threat.
But the agency provided no explanation for why the kill total can be 1.5 million in one year and 5 million the next.
Near the turn of the century, it hit a staggering 4 million. Two years later, in 2001, it fell to about 1.5 million and stayed relatively low for six years. But in 2008, the number of kills rocketed to 5 million before trending downward to 3 million over the next four years.
Now it’s back up, well past 4 million in the most recent count, and critics are pressing for a better explanation for why.
Wildlife Services’ primary purpose is to eradicate invasive creatures introduced from other parts of the world. They include greedy feral hogs, giant swamp rats called nutria, big aggressive Argentine lizards called tegus and swarms of hungry starlings that destroy the habitats of animals native to the United States.
But the agency also kills native animals en masse, sometimes based solely on a homeowner’s or farmer’s perception of a threat.

"The agency's practices also seem to clash with the millions of tax dollars spent on ecological conservation. According to a study Bergstrom published in 2013, Wildlife Services is budgeted $57 million, while the Department of Interior has spent $43 million on efforts to protect the gray wolf. Wildlife Services has killed more than 1,500 gray wolves since 1996.

"Some of these are incredibly important species, imperiled species," Atwood told VICE News. "We have millions of dollars in active policies to recover them. It's a completely schizophrenic policy."

The petition called Wildlife Services “a rogue agency” that was “out of control.”

DETERMINED TO KILL


"The rise in the number of exterminated animals came despite growing scrutiny and protest.

Last December, the Center for Biological Diversity filed a petition demanding that the agency explain the exact reasons it makes each kill of a native animal, for whose benefit and the methods used.

The petition called Wildlife Services “a rogue agency” that was “out of control.”

Rep. Peter A. DeFazio, D-Ore., has railed against the secret methods of Wildlife Services, at one time calling it “one of the most opaque and obstinate departments I’ve dealt with.”

DeFazio has asked to know what goes into poisons used by the agency that are a danger to people and harmless animals, but he hasn’t gotten an answer.

“We’re really not sure what they’re doing,” he said.

Wildlife Services has been around under different government names for more than a century. It essentially cleared away wildlife for America’s westward expansion.>>

"WESTWARD EXPANSION" CAN BE TRANSLATED AS GENOCIDE OF THE "AMERICAN INDIAN"...BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY ERASED FROM "AMERICAN HISTORY".

<<Amy Atwood, a senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity,  dismissed the “science-based model” that Cole mentioned as a document that “basically says they can use whatever methods at their disposal whenever they want.”

Her organization’s petition called on the USDA and the Obama Administration to develop a policy based on ecological science, showing how removing animals from the wild affects the natural balance of the habitats.

In the Northeast, for example, the elimination of red wolves led to a proliferation of coyotes, which the wolves rarely tolerate in their range. Coyotes push away foxes, which prey on deer mice, which spread ticks.

The execution of wolves and other predators, such as bears, allows deer to proliferate across the country, destroying trees that serve as habitat for other animals.

Atwood described Wildlife Services’ work as “a staggering killing campaign, bankrolled by taxpayers” and happening “beyond the view of most Americans.”

<<The covert killings—which includes aerial gunning, traps and exploding poison caps—has gone on for decades with little oversight and according the Center for Biological Diversity, the agency has killed more than 26 million native animals  since 1996.
“Rather than dialing back in the face of criticism, the program that has the nerve to call itself ‘Wildlife Services’ seems to be putting its foot on the pedal in its systematic slaughter of America’s wild animals,” said Atwood. “These numbers pull back the veil on a staggering killing campaign, bankrolled by taxpayers, that’s happening every day.

Also in December, Predator Defense came out with a documentary , Exposed: USDA’s Secret War on Wildlife, former federal agents-turned-whistle-blowers go on record to disclose their take on Wildlife Services: an unaccountable, out of control, wildlife killing machine that acts at the bidding of corporate agriculture and the hunting lobby, all with taxpayer dollars.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack responded to the groups in January, stating that he would look into the issues they raised.>>

“Nothing is more priceless and more worthy of preservation than the rich array of animal life with which our country has been blessed. It is a many-faceted treasure, of value to scholars, scientists and nature lovers alike, and it forms a vital part of the heritage we all share as Americans.”
The Act has been responsible for saving numerous species from becoming extinct.

On the other hand, there’s a program called Wildlife Services, which falls under the USDA agency Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), and is tasked with managing invasive species and handling wildlife when it interferes with human activities like agriculture and property threats.

“Wildlife Services” has a positive ring to it, but perhaps its former name, “Animal Damage Control,” is a more accurate description.
Over 15 years, at least 40 million animals have been shot, poisoned, snared and trapped.

[TO PLACATE THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE FORCE ON EARTH, AN "INVASIVE SPECIES" CALLED HOMO SAPIENS SAPIENS]


Here’s how it works: a rancher who THINKS  [OR SAYS OR EVEN OUTRIGHT LIES THAT...]  wolves are attacking his herd can call in the government, and it will trap, poison, shoot from helicopters, or otherwise wipe out whatever wolves its personnel find nearby just as though it were a private company working for a customer.'"


HELLO, ALL UNINFORMED, FEARFUL AMERICANS! 
HERE'S THE FACTS ON WOLVES:

THERE ARE ONLY 3,700 WOLVES IN THE ENTIRE GREAT LAKES REGION, AND ONLY 1,675 IN THE ROCKIES...THAT'S IT! NOT EVEN 6,000 WOLVES IN THE LOWER 48 STATES VERSUS BILLIONS OF MOOING COWS AND BLEATING SHEEP!
AND ALMOST 400 MILLION SCARED "SETTLERS"!

THE REST HAVE BEEN KILLED OFF SO YOU CAN GO CAMPING WITHOUT DYING OF FRIGHT, AND/OR RAISE STUPID COWS, AND HAVE FUN ENJOYING THE GREAT OUTDOORS COMPLETELY VOID OF INDIGENOUS SPECIES!


There are few historical records or modern cases of wolf attacks in North America. In the half-century up to 2002, there were eight fatal attacks in Europe and Russia, three in North America.

There were no written records of wolf attacks on humans prior to the European colonization of the America.


DOMESTIC ANIMALS CAUSE FAR MORE DEATHS AND INJURIES EACH YEAR THAN WILD ANIMALS DO!

"The number of rabies cases reported in DOMESTIC cats is routinely 3-4 times that of rabies reported in cattle or dogs."
People are non-fatally injured in falls related to their dogs 7.5 times often than in falls related to their cats, but apparently "an estimated average of 86,629 fall injuries associated with cats and dogs occurred in the United States each year during 2001--2006, for an average annual injury rate of 29.7 per 100,000 population." (Source.)
And of course there's cat-scratch disease, caused by Bartonella henselae.

Here's an article talking about transmission and risks of toxoplasmosis TRANSMITTED FROM DOMESTIC ANIMALS...WITH FATALITY RISKS! .

WHY AREN'T FOLKS AFRAID OF THOSE STATS?
WHY KEEP PETS THAT ARE THAT HAZARDOUS TO HUMAN HEALTH AND KILL WILDLIFE THAT SELDOM CAUSE ANY FATALITIES???


"'As Carson Barylak, federal policy advisor at the Animal Welfare Institute, put it: “Wildlife Services has long ignored sound science in establishing its priorities, instead taking its cues from ranchers and other ‘cooperators.’ The influence of these private interests has taken precedence over the ecological principles that should be guiding the agency’s decisions, and wildlife is suffering as a result.”

Let’s think about this: this massive wildlife carnage has been perpetrated to placate ranchers and farmers.

Ranchers and farmers slaughter millions of cows, chickens, turkeys, pigs, lambs and other so-called “food animals.”

So Wildlife Services is killing millions of innocent animals as a favor to special interests that also kill innocent animals.

You can read the state-by-state report in a 665-page document that details the method of an animal’s capture, along with how many were killed, destroyed, released or relocated, but don’t give any reason for the capture. Some captures are listed as “unintentional,” including the three eagle kills, one of which was captured by “M-44 Cyanide Capsule.” It makes for very depressing and infuriating reading.
If you agree that U.S. Wildlife Services is out of control, and needs to be held accountable, please sign our petition demanding that the organization act responsibly, work transparently, and treat animals humanely.'"


~ FOR THOSE OF YOU SCARED OF THOSE BIG OLD MOUNTAIN LIONS, REST EASY.
THEIR NUMBERS ARE DECLINING ONCE AGAIN...DOWN TO FEWER THAN 50,000 THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO HAVE KILLED.

THANK YOU, USDA,THANKS FOR ALL THE KILLING OF ALL THE SCARY OLD WILD ANIMALS.

THANKS FOR THE CONTINUED RAPE OF THE LAND AND ALL ON IT.

LET'S ALL GO HAVE A STEAK!

OH, HOLD ON...THE BUFFALO ARE GONE, AND I ONLY EAT BUFFALO...


At one time so many buffalo bones were piled next to the tracks in Minot, the railroad put in a spur line to get the rail cars closer to the pile...

SUCH MASS, SENSELESS SLAUGHTER STARVED A LOT OF "SAVAGE INDIANS" TO DEATH...I GUESS THEY COUNTED THAT AS "KILLING TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE", EH...DEAD INDIANS, DEAD "VARMINTS".


WHEN ALL THE "SCARY THINGS" ARE ALL GONE, WHAT WILL THE  STILL-TERRIFIED USE AS AN EXCUSE FOR BEING AFRAID OF THE DARK?










The more than 4 million animals shot, poisoned, snared or trapped by the Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services in fiscal 2013 included 75,326 coyotes, 866 bobcats, 528 river otters, 3,700 foxes, 12,186 prairie dogs, 973 red-tailed hawks, 419 black bears and at least three golden and bald eagles.
Though there’s a list of animals killed, there’s little data showing the cause for each killing, the methods used and the reasons behind mistakes that lead to massive kills of animals that aren’t targeted.
At least two members of Congress have called Wildlife Services secret and opaque for failing to provide more information, and there are mounting calls for an investigation into how it operates.
Wildlife Services says that it responds to requests by government agencies nationwide and works to “resolve human/wildlife conflicts” in a strategic way.

U.S. TROOPS AND DRONES GOING BACK TO IRAQ

THERE IS NO WAY I AM GOING TO BELIEVE THAT THE MAJORITY OF IRAQI CITIZENS WANT AMERICAN TROOPS, EN MASSE, BACK INSIDE THEIR BORDERS!

I DON'T CARE IF SATAN WAS OUTSIDE THEIR DOORS, I JUST CANNOT ACCEPT THAT WHAT WE READ IN TODAY'S NEWS IS TRUE! 

BAGHDAD — Iraqi officials Friday welcomed help from the United States but say they need more than just a few hundred advisers to counter the insurgents taking over huge swathes of Iraq.
"We welcome U.S. assistance but we need more help from the U.S. Air Force — ours is still very fragile and underdeveloped," said Ali Al Musaw, an adviser to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. "The danger is serious and the whole world must stand to face up to the terrorists."
On Thursday, President Obama said he was planning to send up to 300 military advisers to Iraq to help train local security forces and target insurgents who have taken over provincial capitals and are on the move toward Baghdad.
raqi leaders have been pleading for U.S. help since the cities of Mosul and Tikrit fell to the insurgents earlier this month. Prime Minister al-Maliki has formally requested U.S. airstrikes.

PLEADING? REALLY?
CAN WE GET SOME VIDEO OF THAT, AND NOT THE FAKE STUFF FROM THE CIA, AS IN THOSE AWFUL FAKE VIDEOS OF A FAT, SHORT, RIGHT-HANDED, RING-WEARING, BROAD-NOSED ACTOR PORTRAYING OSAMA BIN LADEN?



"ISIS is indeed a very brutal terrorist group, even by al Qaeda standards"...al Q has apparently, if we are to believe even this, kicked ISIS out of their 'organization'...seems ISIS has scared al Q?
AND THIS, THIS IS A BLATANT, INEXCUSABLE LIE!!!
<<ISIS used to be known as al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), the leading Islamist extremist group during the Iraq War. AQI controlled significant amounts of Iraqi territory during the war, until the US military and allied Sunni militias famously defeated it during the post-2006 "surge." >>

DID ANY OF US EVER HEAR ONE MENTION OF "ISIS" IN IRAQ DURING BUSH2's "CAMPAIGN"?
NOOOOO!
HOW CONVENIENT TO RENAME OLD AL Q AS ISIS!!!
NOW, IF ONLY THEY CAN RAISE BIN LADEN FROM THE DEAD, THEY CAN HAVE A REAL, TERRIFYING LEADER FOR THIS GROUP, YES?

Feb. 3, 2014
Early Monday morning the leadership of al-Qaeda disowned the Islamic State of Iraq and greater Syria (ISIS), the most effective of its two franchises fighting in Syria, in a maneuver that could alter the trajectory of the fight against President Bashar Assad. In a message posted on jihadi websites the al-Qaeda general command stated that its former affiliate “is not a branch of the al-Qaeda group [and al-Qaeda] does not have an organizational relationship with it and is not the group responsible for their actions.”
ISIS’s savagery and draconian interpretations of Islamic law alienated many Syrians and drove a wedge between rebel groups. On Jan. 3, fighting broke out between ISIS and a new alliance that included the Nusra Front. ISIS has managed to stand its ground.

OH, NO! THERE MUST BE FEAR AND TREMBLING IN AMERICA!
ISIS IS COMING, ISIS IS COMING!
"SAVAGERY", "BRUTALITY", AND "DRACONIAN", OH MY!

<<But there’s another issue worth considering: the threat of violent blowback against the U.S. at home. For the moment, ISIS, which has fighters in Syria and Iraq, is focused on expanding its territory on both sides of the border. But an American attack on ISIS could turn the group’s wrath Westward, and it already has the means to retaliate on American shores.>>

I CALL BULL-COOKIES ON THAT!
JUST SOME MORE PROPAGANDA CRAPOLA FROM OUR LUDICROUS BUT FREEDOM-ROBBING "HOMELAND SECURITY", WHICH HASN'T SECURED ONE TINY THING IN ALL ITS YEARS AS AN ABOMINATION ON AMERICAN SOIL!
WELL, IT DID MAKE IT FUN AND FAIR TO GROPE AMERICAN CITIZENS IN AIRPORTS.

"DHS" WAS CREATED TO INSTILL ENOUGH FEAR IN AMERICANS THAT THEY WOULD HAND OVER ALL CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO THE BUSH 2 GANG....IT FAILED AT ITS MISSION, BUT IS STILL HACKING AWAY AT AMERICAN FREEDOM.

IF ISIS COULD RID US OF THE "DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY", THE "PATRIOT ACT", AND THE "NDAA", I'D PAY THEIR WAY ACROSS THE OCEAN MYSELF!!!
RECRUITMENT VIA SOCIAL MEDIA?
ISIS fighters from across Europe are bringing in new recruits via social media, causing great concern. According to security officials from several European nations, about 400 British, 100 American and 700 French combatants, among others, have already joined the fight, turning what some may consider a distant war into an immediate threat at home.

THIS PARAGRAPH THAT FOLLOWS SHOULD SEND RED FLAGS WAVING THAT THIS IS A MEDIA BLITZKRIEG TO FOMENT FEAR IN GREAT BRITAIN, THE U.S. AND OTHER NATIONS WHO WERE WHIPPED AND THREATENED INTO GOING WITH BUSH2 FOR HIS FIRST SOIREE  INTO THE MIDDLE EAST:

There have been accounts of foreigners among the ISIS troops taking Mosul in last week’s attack, but most were described as having North African, non-Iraqi Arab or Chechen accents. ISIS’s Iraq campaign, which utilized the tactics of conventional war rather than guerilla-style suicide attacks, may have required seasoned jihadis over untrained but committed novices from the West.
In a way, though, that doesn’t matter. ISIS, whose regional ambitions are reflected in its name, does not acknowledge the border that divides the two wings of its campaign. An attack on ISIS targets in Iraq is the same as one on ISIS targets in Syria. If Baghdadi or one of his lieutenants calls for revenge on the West, he is likely to find many willing — and able — volunteers.

WHO IN THE HELL WITHIN IRAQ'S BORDERS WOULD BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE ALL THOSE "ACCENTS" AMIDST SUCH HORRIFIC ATTACKS?
WHO ON IRAQ'S STREETS HAVE EVER MET A CHECHEN?
DO THEY TEACH "RECOGNITION OF FOREIGN ACCENTS" IN THE SCHOOLS IN IRAQ?

THE MEDIA MUST THINK ALL OF US ARE BRAIN-DEAD IF THEY WANT US TO BELIEVE THAT THEY CAN'T "GET A FIX" ON ISIS' EXACT WHEREABOUTS IN ORDER TO LAUNCH COUNTER-STRIKES, THAT THE "INTELLIGENCE" IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GATHER TO LOCATE THE MAIN "CELLS", BUT WANT US TO ACCEPT THAT SOMEONE HAS ISOLATED EVERY ONE OF THOSE ACCENTS!!!
BULL!!!
THAT'S JUST LUDICROUS!

IT'S FEAR-MONGERING SO ALL OF US WILL SCREAM FOR AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN INTERVENTION!
REV UP THE NATO BIRDS OF WAR'S ENGINES, IT'S IRAQ, PART 3!
SAME PLAYERS, SAME FEAR TACTICS SO THAT THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX ON 2 CONTINENTS CAN BE FED...MUST FEED THE DOGS OF WAR!
MUST MAKE WAR PROFITS!
BUY AMERICAN!
WE SELL ARMS TO THE WHOLE WORLD!
GET YOUR RED-HOT STINGER MISSILES, YOUR DEPLETED URANIUM ARTILLERY RIGHT HERE!
CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP!

AND, IF WE GO AFTER ISIS IN IRAQ, WE DAMN WELL CAN GO AFTER ISIS IN SYRIA, OR WHEREVER ELSE OUR WAR DOGS CHOOSE TO HUNT!
GET IT?
THIS IS ABOUT KEEPING OUR TROOPS AWAY FROM AMERICAN SOIL, ABOUT FINDING A WAY TO STAY IN THE SANDS OF THE MIDDLE EAST FOREVER!

IF ISIS NEVER EXISTED, WE'D HAVE HAD TO INVENT IT OURSELVES, JUST LIKE BUSH2 INVENTED WMDs, THOSE ELUSIVE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, AND CHANGED THE TALIBAN THAT RONALD REAGAN SO LOVED AND ADMIRED INTO THIS "AL QAEDA".

AN AMERICAN GENERAL CALLS ISIS "A NEW GROUP IN IRAQ"!!!!
On This Week, retired General Peter Chiarelli echoed Graham by saying that “all Americans should be concerned” about ISIS’ sudden appearance in Iraq. - See more at: http://www.occupycorporatism.com/home/media-talking-heads-claim-isis-will-attack-us-911-style/?utm_source=Top+US+World+News+%7C+Susanne+Posel+Daily+Headlines+and+Research&utm_medium=FB#sthash.wlJfWTq8.dpuf
<<On This Week, retired General Peter Chiarelli echoed Graham by saying that “all Americans should be concerned” about ISIS’ sudden appearance in Iraq>>

Michael Morell, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and current intelligence and national security expert for CBS News, claims that in 2013, it was predicted that ISIS would become a serious threat to America via al-Qaeda in Pakistan and Yemen. - See more at: http://www.occupycorporatism.com/home/media-talking-heads-claim-isis-will-attack-us-911-style/?utm_source=Top+US+World+News+%7C+Susanne+Posel+Daily+Headlines+and+Research&utm_medium=FB#sthash.wlJfWTq8.dpuf
THE IDEA OF ISIS BEGAN TO BE HYPED IN 2013, NOT 2001...AND THEN THEY WERE SUPPOSEDLY GOING TO STRIKE FROM YEMEN AND PAKISTAN!
<<Michael Morell, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and current intelligence and national security expert for CBS News, claims that in 2013, it was predicted that ISIS would become a serious threat to America via al-Qaeda in Pakistan and Yemen,>>

WELL, TIME WAS NOT SATISFIED THAT IT HAD SCARED THE PANTS OFF ALL OF US, SO THEY'VE DONE SEVERAL ARTICLES ON THE UNHOLY TERROR OF ISIS AND THEIR MARCH TOWARD THE USA, ALL OF EUROPE, AND GALAXIES BEYOND!
THEY REALLY SHOULD FIRE THE WRITERS OF THESE "GEMS" OF DOOM-SAYING!
THEY DO SUCK!

<<For the moment, the militant group has focused on expanding its reach in Syria and Iraq. But U.S. attacks could bring its gaze Westward, and with thousands of foreign jihadis among its ranks, it has the ability to exact revenge.>>

<<Will ISIS plan a 9/11-style terror plot against the U.S.?
Republicans are sounding the warning that the next 9/11-like terror plot could emerge from the regions of Iraq and Syria that are currently dominated by an extremist group bearing down on Baghdad. >>


SHOCK AND AWE, AMERICA, SHOCK AND AWE!
THE SKY IS FALLING....YET AGAIN!

<<Look at this map, from March, of territory controlled by different factions in Syria. Notice all of that blue ISIS territory in eastern Syria, near the Iraqi border and Mosul:>>
YES, YES, THEY CREATED THIS MAP IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR!
WHERE WAS SUCH A MAP IN 2001???
I LOOKED DILIGENTLY AND CAN'T FIND ONE!


THE MEDIA IS, ONCE AGAIN PORTRAYING IRAQIS AS COWARDS:
<<The Iraqi Army is not a fearsome institution. Iraqi soldiers fled Mosul en masse when the ISIS takeover appeared imminent, leaving behind tanks, helicopters, and a fair number of weapons. "As recent efforts in Fallujah" — another city controlled by ISIS — "demonstrated, the Iraqi Army does not have the skill or the will to push back ISIS in house-to-house fighting," Jason Lyall, the Yale insurgency expert says.
America's Iraq War is over. But the next Iraqi one may just be getting started.>>

<<Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday that U.S. officials have warned the next major attack on U.S. soil could emanate from the region.>>

<<Terror alerts, 9/11-style bombings and murders of British citizens will soon come to London’s streets, according to chilling threats from UK citizens fighting alongside Islam’s most violent terrorist group operating in Syria and Iraq. What’s more striking is how news of their particular cruelty is widespread in Syria itself: Britons comprise an overwhelming majority of foreigners inside ISIS, an organization who are labeled ‘terrorists’ for their bloody campaign of ruthless executions and body mutilations even by other elements of the Syrian opposition. >>

IRAN CLAIMS ISIS WAS CREATED BY ISRAEL!
<<Iranian Army Chief of Staff Gen. Hassan Firouzabadi claimed Wednesday that Israel created and supports the terrorist Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.

“ISIS is Israel’s cover up for distancing the revolutionary forces from Israeli borders and creating a margin of security for the Zionists, and the Zionist media have also admitted this fact,” he said, Fars News Agency reported.>>

I'M TAKING ALL BETS THAT AMERICA, GREAT BRITAIN, AND ALL NATO ALLIES WILL BE GOING "BACK TO IRAQ".
I'D TRULY "BET THE FARM" ON THIS ONE!
AMERICA'S ECONOMY NEEDS ANOTHER "SHOT IN THE ARM", RIGHT?
WRONG!
BUT WALL STREET WOULD BENEFIT, THOSE WITH STOCK IN THE MACHINES OF WAR WOULD RAKE IN A HEFTY PROFIT!
IF WE COULD GET OUR OTHER FINGERS INTO IRAQI OIL, WELL, WELL, WELL!
THAT WOULD SURE BE NICE, EH?
SO....BACK WE GO...AND SOON...TOO SOON!

BERGDAHL PRISONER EXCHANGE FACTS

1~ THERE IS AT PRESENT NO PROOF BERGDAHL DESERTED.
There are 2 different stories being told by 2 different groups of his comrades on that outpost.
One group swears he was always itching for a fight with the Taliban and may have gone off looking for one. This group says he was a good dependable "go-getter".
The other group says he was arrogant, standoffish and expressed disenchantment with the U.S. government for killing innocent children and deserted his post.
Several on that outpost had been reprimanded and/or replaced PRIOR to Bergdahl's disappearance. . 

2~ NEITHER THE TALIBAN IN AFGHANISTAN NOR THE GOVERNMENT OF QATAR, THE 2 ENTITIES THAT THE U.S. NEGOTIATED THE PRISONER EXCHANGE WITH, ARE LISTED AS "TERRORISTS".
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT RONALD REAGAN CALLED THE TALIBAN "FREEDOM FIGHTERS" AND SENT THEM ARMS TO FIGHT THE SOVIETS. HE EVEN DEDICATED A SPACE MISSION TO THEM!
A new State Department report designating terrorist organizations notably excludes one group: the Taliban.
The Taliban has not appeared once on the list of known terrorists, and the seemingly arbitrary decision on the part of the State Department has confused even the most experienced foreign affairs experts.
3~ IT IS NOT, I REPEAT, NOT THE PRESIDENT WHO IS TO NOTIFY CONGRESS OF A PRISONER EXCHANGE. IT IS THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE.
Current law, signed by Obama in December, stipulates that the defense secretary must notify relevant congressional committees at least 30 days before transferring anyone from Guantanamo Bay and provide assurances that those released would not be in a position to again threaten the United States or its interests.
THE IDIOTS IN CONGRESS PASSED THAT BILL THEMSELVES! DIDN'T THEY READ ANY OF IT?

MANY LEGAL EXPERTS AGREE THAT THE SIGNING STATEMENT OBAMA ADDED TO THAT BILL ALLOWED THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH TO EXERCISE THE RIGHT TO SO NEGOTIATE A PRISONER EXCHANGE WITHOUT INFORMING CONGRESS.

Writing about the law last year, Benjamin Wittes of the Brookings Institution said it put the administration "in a position to move detainees out of Guantanamo as long as it is willing to be politically accountable for the problems they create and as long as they don't bring them to the United States."

Under the law, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel can authorize such a transfer if he "determines that actions have or will be taken that substantially mitigate the risk that the individual will engage in activity that threatens the United States or U.S. persons or interests," or if the transfer "is in the national security interest of the United States," Hayden said.

New York Times: Military Officials Agree U.S. Should Prioritize Return Of American Prisoners. The Times highlighted military officials explaining the importance of the U.S.'s long-standing commitment to the idea that no man or woman should ever be left behind. The General formerly in charge of military operations in Afghanistan called this absolute principle "more important than a paycheck or a medal":The New York Times, 6/3/14]

4~ CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS HAVE BEEN BRIEFED ON A POSSIBLE PRISONER EXCHANGE FOR BERGDAHL FOR OVER 5 YEARS!  THEY WERE TOLD LATE LAST YEAR THAT IT WOULD LIKELY COME SOON. EVEN BOEHNER WON'T DENY THAT!
AND, THE GOP HAS PUSHED FOR BERGDAHL'S RELEASE SINCE OBAMA TOOK OFFICE! THEY CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS, BUT WITH ELECTIONS AHEAD OF SOME, THEY WANT TO LOOK "TOUGH"...IF ONLY THEY COULD.

"We received a detailed classified notification from the Secretary of Defense that satisfies the many substantive certification requirements of the National Defense Authorization Act," said a statement by Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan, who chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Noting that Obama "put Congress on notice" last December that he intended to act quickly in such cases, "members of Congress should not be surprised that he acted as he did in the circumstances that existed."

5~ TOP BUSH ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS HAVE SAID BUSH WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME THING OBAMA DID, THAT OTHER PRESIDENTS HAVE NEGOTIATED SIMILAR HOSTAGE EXCHANGES ,AND A FEW GOP MEMBERS OF CONGRESS HAVE SHAMED THEIR OWN FOR CHANGING THEIR TUNE FROM WANTING BERGDAHL RELEASED "WITH ALL DUE HASTE".
Former Bush Defense Official Charles Stimson: Any President Would Negotiate With Taliban. USA Today reported that President George W. Bush's former Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary for Detainee Affairs Charles Stimson dismissed critics of the negotiations, saying any Republican or Democratic president has done and would do the same:

    Under President George W. Bush, Stimson helped coordinate the Pentagon's detainee operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and other places around the world. He said presidential administrations of both political parties routinely have been forced to deal with terrorist groups for "information, supplies, personnel -- a lot of different topics." 

 Facing a deadline like that, Stimson said, any president -- Republican or Democrat -- could have made the same decision. 

    "Anyone who says otherwise ... hasn't been involved in these kinds of negotiations."  [SOURCE: USA Today, 6/2/14]

John Bellinger, former legal adviser to Department of State under George Bush, defended the Obama administration's move, saying "these particular detainees I think could never have been tried in federal court." He insisted that the Bush administration "would have made the same decision." Bellinger noted that the Bush administration "returned something like 500 detainees from Guantanamo."
"In other words, and I have heard this from various sources, the government will HAVE to release these prisoners once the war in Afghanistan is officially over. "

"There's little that's actually new here," said Mitchell Reiss, who worked in the State Department under President George W. Bush and served as national security adviser to Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. "It may be new to certain individuals. Whether it's new or not is not as important as whether it's sound policy and promotes national security. That's the ground where there's a more legitimate debate."

In his book, Negotiating with Evil, Reiss wrote that America actually has a detailed history of negotiating with terrorists and rogue regimes that support terrorist activity. 

After the North Koreans captured the U.S.S. Pueblo in 1968, President Lyndon Johnson apologized for spying as part of negotiations to secure the release of 83 American prisoners.

·         In 1970, President Richard Nixon pressured Israel, Switzerland, West Germany and Britain to release Palestinian prisoners after two airlines were hijacked by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

·         During the Iran hostage crisis of 1979 to 1981, President Jimmy Carter agreed to unfreeze $8 billion in frozen Iranian assets after more than a year of negotiations with the Iranian revolutionaries.

·         In perhaps the most famous swap, after seven Americans were captured in Beirut, Lebanon, President Ronald Reagan agreed to send missiles to Iran in what became known as the Iran-Contra scandal.

·         President Bill Clinton's administration sat down with Hamas in attempts to negotiate peace with Israel. His administration also worked directly with the Taliban nearly two decades ago on several occasions to see if the group would hand over Osama bin Laden and other al-Qaida leaders.

Reiss also noted that President George W. Bush engaged in negotiations with Iran and North Korea even after decreeing them part of the "Axis of Evil." [SOURCE:PolitiFact, 6/1/14]


On Special Report, Charles Krauthammer defended President Obama’s power to release the detainees without telling Congress. He said the spirit of the law was to prevent the president from emptying Guantanamo.

Krauthammer said, “The one area where the president holds the upper hand in those disputes is in matters of war and peace, he’s commander in chief. And I think a prisoner exchange is in the province of the presidency.”

Krauthammer said a country has two “iron clad” obligations.

The first is if there’s a soldier being held prisoner, you get him back. The second obligation he outlined is, “If you desert your unit, you are subject to military discipline. I would say you free him, and then you try him.”

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell Laid The Groundwork For Taliban Negotiations. Serving under President Bush in 2002, then-Secretary of State Colin Powell designated the Afghan Taliban an organization authorized for select legal negotiations, unlike the terror group Al Qaeda, as Newsweek pointed out: 

    By making this distinction -- a position ultimately adopted by Bush -- then the United States would be preserving its ability to credibly declare captured American soldiers to be prisoners of war. The recommendation, Powell wrote, "maintains POW status for U.S. forces ... and generally supports the U.S. objective of ensuring its forces are accorded protection under the [Geneva] Conventions."

Without allowing for negotiations with the Taliban, all captured American forces would immediately be sent down a legal black hole under which no means exists -- other than the commitment of more soldiers in what might prove to be a fruitless rescue attempt -- for their rescue.  [SOURCE: Newsweek, 6/3/14]  
6~ WE ARE NOT AT WAR WITH AFGHANISTAN. WE HAVE NEVER DECLARED A WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST...NOT AGAINST ANY NATION. WE HAVE SENT TROOPS TO UNDECLARED WARS.
7~ ACCORDING TO GENEVA CONVENTION, WHEN WARS END, ALL POWs ARE TO BE REPATRIATED. WARRING FORCES ARE EXPECTED TO TRADE POWs IMMEDIATELY.
ALL WHO ARE IN GUANTANAMO WILL HAVE TO BE SENT "HOME" BY THE TIME WE LEAVE AFGHANISTAN FOREVER IN 2016.
KARZAI HIMSELF HAS DEMANDED THIS!

NONE OF THE 5 TALIBAN RELEASED WERE FACING TRIAL FOR ANY CRIME.
THERE WAS NO REASON TO FURTHER DETAIN THEM IF WE WERE NOT GOING TO CHARGE THEM.


When wars end, prisoners taken into custody must be released. These five Guantanamo detainees were almost all members of the Taliban, according to the biographies of the five detainees that the Afghan Analysts Network compiled in 2012. None were facing charges in either military or civilian courts for their actions. It remains an open question whether the end of U.S. involvement in the armed conflict in Afghanistan requires that all Guantanamo Bay detainees must be released. But there is no doubt that Taliban detainees captured in Afghanistan must be released because the armed conflict against the Taliban will be over. [Center For American Progress, 6/2/14]

Military Code Of Conduct: U.S. Govt. "Will Use Any Practical Means To Contact, Support And Gain Release" Of POWs. A Department of Defense military code of conduct and ethics dating back to 1954 states that the U.S. government has an explicit obligation and responsibility to "stand by" POWs and that the government "will use every practical means to contact, support and gain release for you and for all other prisoners of war" (emphasis added):

    As a member of the armed forces of the United States, you are protecting your nation. It is your duty to oppose all enemies of the United States in combat or, if a captive, in a prisoner of war compound. Your behavior is guided by the Code of Conduct, which has evolved from the heroic lives, experiences and deeds of Americans from the Revolutionary War to the Southeast Asian Conflict.

    Just as you have a responsibility to your country under the Code of Conduct, the United States government has an equal responsibility -- to keep faith with you and stand by you as you fight for your country. If you are unfortunate enough to become a prisoner of war, you may rest assured that your government will care for your dependents and will never forget you. Furthermore, the government will use every practical means to contact, support and gain release for you and for all other prisoners of war. [American Civil Liberties Union, accessed 6/2/14]

8~ WHEN THE GOP MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THEM, WERE PUSHING OBAMA TO RESCUE OUR POW, MANY/MOST SCREAMED THAT HE WAS TOO WEAK A PRESIDENT TO GET OUR MAN OUT OF TALIBAN HANDS.
NOW THEY SAY IT IS A SIGN OF WEAKNESS THAT OBAMA DID GET HIM OUT AND THAT THE "TERRORISTS" WILL SEE ALL OF AMERICA AS WEAK BECAUSE OF THIS POW RESCUE.
IF NEGOTIATING RELEASE OF PRISONERS IS A SIGN OF WEAKNESS THEN EVERY PRESIDENT SINCE WORLD WAR 2 HAS BEEN WEAK!
HAVE THEY FORGOTTEN IRAN-CONTRA, THE REAGAN FIASCO THAT BACKFIRED ON THAT ADMINISTRATION?


I DON'T FEEL WEAK, I DON'T FEEL WEAK AT ALL!

As the gentleman who writes the STONEKETTLE BLOGS succinctly stated:

<<But what they conveniently fail to mention are those pictures of Cheney and Rumsfeld with Saddam Hussein, back when we were giving the murderous Iraqi despot money and guns in his war against Iran and which he later used to invade Kuwait.  Or that part where we armed Osama bin Laden with Stinger missiles and all the guns he and the Mujahidin could carry into Afghanistan. Or that part where these people’s beloved patron saint, one Ronald Reagan, sold arms to our mortal enemies in Iran, a nation the US Congress and that very same President had publicly labeled a terrorist state, the very same terrorist rat b___ds who took our entire embassy staff hostage and held them for over a year.  Or that part where that very same administration took the profits from that arms deal with terrorists and used it to finance still more terrorists in the jungles of Central America. And the really, really amusing part is that the same people who are right now shouting “we don’t negotiate with terrorists!” are some of the very same people, name for name, who were personally negotiating with terrorists in Iran, in Iraq, in Libya, in Afghanistan, in Colombia, in Nicaragua, in Somalia, and in Beirut. 
We don’t negotiate with terrorists?

The staggering hypocrisy of John McCain continues unabated, the man is a disgrace to the uniform he once wore and the honor he swore to uphold. McCain, more than any other living American, should know what it’s like when governments value politics over their own citizens. Navy Lieutenant John McCain, if he still exists inside that wretched bitter old man, that John McCain more than any other should remember what it’s like to come home as a POW under a cloud of doubt and suspicion. But Vietnam was a long, long time ago and John McCain is a rich man now and more than willing to condemn others for his own sins. 

What does it tell the terrorists?
This, this right here, is where we as a nation, need to say no more.

We need to stand up and say we’ve had enough. That not only are we sick and tired of being afraid of terrorists, but we’re even more tired of listening to the fearful cries of the other terrorists, the ones who practice being terrified as a political philosophy.

This madness, this crippling unreasoning fear, must be dragged into the heat of the sun and cauterized, before it kills us all.

What does it tell the terrorists?

Fourteen years we’ve been killing these ____, we’ve killed thousands of them, we’ve killed their families, we’ve destroyed their country, we rooted them out of their strongholds, we hunted down their leader and shot him in the head and dumped his body into the sea.

And for what? So we can still be afraid?


Why do we have the mightiest military in the world? In the history of the world, if we have to live in fear of what the ____ terrorists think?

What does Ted Cruz’s statement tell the US Military?

What does it tell the terrorists? Who cares. The real question is what does it tell America?

That under a Tea Party administration if you’re captured by terrorists, well ___  you, Soldier. We don’t negotiate with terrorists. Our vaunted principles, our inflexible ideology, our unbending politics and our sound-bite simple-minded doctrine is worth more than your life. We don’t negotiate with terrorists (even though we really do, don’t we? Pretty much all of the time). Besides, you’re probably a traitor anyway.

Think about that.

Think about it real hard.

Think about it real hard, especially if you’re the parent of a soldier-age son or daughter.
The day we forget that, the day the fear of “what will the terrorists think” becomes more important to us than that sacred obligation, that’s the day America dies.

Whether or not Bowe Bergdahl is a hero or a deserter or just a hapless fool who screwed up under the enormous pressures of war, he’s still an American.

He’s one of ours.>>


THE GOP HAS CALLED FOR INVESTIGATION AFTER INVESTIGATION INTO EVERYTHING OBAMA HAS DONE SINCE HE TOOK OFFICE.
THE RAW VENOMOUS HATRED THEY HAVE FOR THIS PRESIDENT WILL HAVE THEM INVESTIGATING HOW MANY SHEETS OF TOILET PAPER OBAMA USED TO WIPE HIS BEHIND BEFORE THE MAN LEAVES OFFICE.

I AM NO FAN OF OBAMA'S, NOR WAS I A FAN OF RONALD REAGAN.
I THOUGHT JIMMY CARTER WAS A JOKE, AND I ALSO SAW GEORGE W. BUSH AS AN ILLITERATE BUFFOON.

EVERY SINGLE PRESIDENT WE HAVE ELECTED HAS LIED, LIED, LIED!

BUT THE REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF THIS CONGRESS WILL SURELY GO DOWN IN THE HISTORY BOOKS AS THE MOST HATE-MONGERING, FEAR-SPREADING, LYING, HYPOCRITICAL, EGOTISTICAL, TWO-FACED, RACIST, TREASONOUS, BIGOTED, WALL STREET WHORES EVER  TO SIT IN THOSE SEATS SINCE THERE WERE SEATS TO SIT IN!
THEY REALLY OUGHT TO WEAR KKK WHITE SHEETS TO WORK EACH DAY!

NO COURT IS GOING TO CONVICT OBAMA OF ONE BLOODY THING, JUST LIKE NO COURT (HERE) CONVICTED GEORGE W. BUSH OF ANYTHING.

THE GOP CONGRESS WILL BANKRUPT AMERICA TRYING TO HANG OBAMA.
IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

WHY CAN'T THEY JUST LET GO OF THE FACT THAT A "BLACK" MAN BEAT THE SOCKS OFF THEIR CANDIDATES?

AND WHY CAN'T THEY STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT ILLEGAL FOR NON-REPUBLICANS TO VOTE?

AND WHY CAN'T THEY ALLOW IMMIGRATION, SUCH AS THEIR IMMIGRANT ANCESTORS
ENJOYED WHEN THEY ALL CAME HERE WITHOUT GREEN CARDS OR "PAPERS" THAT LEGITIMIZED THEIR COMING TO AMERICA?

WHY CAN'T THEY ALLOW WORKING MEN AND WOMEN TO MAKE LESS THAN 10% OF WHAT THEY'RE PAID (ABOUT $400 AN HOUR!), WHY BEGRUDGE THEM A LOUSY MINIMUM WAGE THAT CAN SUSTAIN LIFE? 

WHY CAN'T THEY VOTE TO INCREASE VETERANS' BENEFITS?

WHY DID THEY VOTE TO STOP COMBAT PAY FOR OUR TROOPS WHO ARE IN FIREFIGHTS EVERY DAY?

WHY WON'T THEY INCREASE FUNDS AND SHIPMENTS OF ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY EQUIPMENT, SUFFICIENT WATER, AND BETTER FOOD FOR OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN THE MIDDLE EAST?

WHY DID THEY VOTE TO TAKE FOOD STAMPS AWAY FROM CHILDREN, THE ELDERLY, THE POOR, THE DISABLED?

THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN VOTED THE MOST DO-NOTHING CONGRESS IN OUR NATION'S HISTORY!
WHY AREN'T THEY DOING WHAT WE PAY THEM TO DO?

WE PAY THEM TO VOTE EXACTLY AS WE, THE PEOPLE, TELL THEM TO VOTE!
WE PAY THEM TO SERVE US, NOT WALL STREET, NOT THE BIG BANKERS!

THE BERGDAHL PRISONER EXCHANGE WILL STAND.
THEY WON'T HANG OBAMA WITH THIS ONE, EITHER.
BUT WE, THE PEOPLE WILL PAY THROUGH THE NOSE FOR YET ANOTHER INVESTIGATION...BECAUSE THE GOP CONGRESS HATES THAT "BLACK" PRESIDENT ENOUGH TO BANKRUPT ALL OF US TO CRUCIFY HIM.


THE DUMB BIGOTS WILL SIMPLY NOT GIVE UP ON THAT!
