Title: I remember JoG... Post by Paraquat on 04/06/17 at 20:00:31 I remember JoG asking why Assad would bomb his own people when he was winning?

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/06/17 at 21:43:13 Not just while he's winning, but by doing it, it opens the door to an invasion. No, Assad didn't do it. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/07/17 at 05:49:22 Just as we were TOLD that the Vietnamese had attacked our ship, just as we were TOLD Iraq had WMDs and those Animals had gone into the hospital and dragged babies out of incubators and threw them on the floor, our media has been used to feed us information that would cause us to Want to see someone punished. They LIED to us about Gadaffi, too. And Assad KNOWS that nothing will bring the American military into direct action like an attack By him on his own people. No, the alleged Rebels, who we fed and armed, have done this, so it can be Blamed on Assad. You REALLY need to read Confessions of An Economic Hit Man. You can glean enough information reading summaries online. But, more than one or two. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by Trippah on 04/07/17 at 06:47:12 Yeah, it is all the frickin desert's fault. Normally we say a US Navy vessel has been attacked; getting the aircraft carrier into the desert was just too hard to do. Darn. JOG Kennedy sent advisors, then LBJ sent millions. Obama sent advisors, what will Trump do? Let me guess? 60 at 1.5 million each; Raytheon will be pleased. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/07/17 at 07:12:20 So you agree with my assessment that we are being lied to to justify a war? And you think Trump will feed the Military Industrial Complex, just like I said? And I said it a while ago. I , unlike the Bamiphants , who didn't honestly criticize Obama or Hillary, I've been pointing out how Trump was acting like a Neocon f o r weeks. You don't actually think Hillary wouldn't be doing the same thing? This crap in the ME isn't about human rights, it's about MONEY, BIG, BIG MUNNEE. And a consolidation of power. You folks Seriously need to read what David Rockefeller bragged about, I've posted it several times. Whoever is believing that the Reasons WHY we are involved militarily are the Reasons they are telling us is terminally naive. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by Trippah on 04/07/17 at 07:53:46 JOG we will never know if we, Russia, Syria, Khurds or rebels, or even ISIS delivered the Sarin; in fact we may never actually know if Sarin was deployed. What we can agree on is that the Republican's want as big a MIC as possible. The Dems want to shift some of the money to the road builders etc (the folks who give them money). Is the Middle East just about oil? mostly, I suspect as control of oil means big money. If you look at how little oil cost today compared to the seventies, you get a hint of what control the flow means - both in oil and monetary strength. Do I care? Not really, our government has always been the Best Money Can buy..from United Fruit in the 50's on up to today. I do care in that a shift this way or that impacts the local economy and thus my family. Snowing, gotta go watch the cool flakes (as compared to the elected ones)> ;D ;D ;D |

I agree. But I also believe that unintended consequences are almost always the end result of these kind of machinations. In this case the consequence will be, when Assad if finally deposed, or killed, ISIS will be the de facto government of Syria. Even Russia isn't going to be able to prevent that. Maybe they won't even care to try. And the US won't. We've already seen that in Iraq and Afghanistan. "The best laid plans of mice and men..." |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/07/17 at 08:17:12 I didn't say Trump did it. Look, this is a complex concept for people who aren't aware of the corrupt and evil Actual Policy Makers. It AIN'T the president. Again, read Rockefellers admission. America's Military is being Used to accomplish the goals of the globalists. They don't CARE about dead people. We are lower than cattle to them. And,their Ethics are simple. If the Dumbmasses will allow us to destroy them, they deserve it. Because sufficient evidence exists to make any true individual see the lies. No, we don't know it wasn't completely staged and nobody hurt. We don't know WHO did it, but One thing we Do Know is who would be the Big LOSER. Assad. |

And the runner-up Big LOSER, after the MSM gets over pi**ing themselves with glee over the air strike, is probably going to be TRUMP. "...Trump won the nomination and the presidency on one core issue. He would be the President of the United Sates, not the President of the world. That was his line. He repeated it often. It allegedly captured his one core belief. What is good for America is what is good for Americans and the government should always be working to further the interest of Americans, over the interests of foreigners. The fact that something so obvious and sane has to be explained speaks to the the degeneracy of our age. But, we live in a time when we have to debate physical reality with people who insist things like biology and math are a plot by a mystery cult of white men to keep down women and non-whites. Still, Trump running on a platform of rationality, and winning on the platform, gave a lot of people, including me, a spark of hope. Maybe what comes next does not have to be what always comes next. Yesterday, the alt-right and even many seasoned geezers like me took a body blow when Trump abandoned everything he said over the last two years and embraced the idiocy of yet another war in the Middle East. Not only is he embracing the lunacy of the traitorous neocons, he is risking war with Russia. His “reason” for condemning himself to ruin is that his daughter got the sads over seeing pictures of dead kids in Syria. She takes to twitter over this latest agit-prop and in a day daddy is launching missiles at Assad. The United States has no interest in Syria. There are no good guys to back. There’s no “solution” to what ails that part of the world, short of another flood. Syria is a mess because it is full of Syrians. The only sane policy is to make sure it remains full of Syrians. Let them kill each other there, not in Paris or Portland. If the Russians want to build their pipeline there and pay the price for it, good for them. If the Saudis want to stop them, best of luck with it. This is not an American problem. It is their problem. Let them own it." Trump just got played. Big time. Launching that air strike was the stupidest thing he's done so far. The fact that most of the folks on the left AND the right are jumping for joy over it ought to be all the proof anyone needs.

" ... just as we were TOLD Iraq had WMDs ..." Yep, (WARNING-WARNING) As the robot flayed his arms around. Saddam took advantage of a June 4, 2002, irrigation dam collapse in Zeyzoun, Syria, to ship the weapons under cover of an aid project to the flooded region. "[Saddam] said 'Okay, Iraq is going to do an air bridge to help Syria," Two commercial jets, a 747 and 727, were converted to cargo jets, in order to carry raw materials and equipment related to WMD projects. The passenger seats, galleys, toilets and storage compartments were removed and new flooring was installed, he claimed. Hundreds of tons of chemicals were reportedly included in the cargo shipments. They were moved by air and by ground, 56 sorties by jumbo, 747, and 27 were moved, after they were converted to cargo aircraft, they were moved to Syria In February 2006, Ali Ibrahim al-Tikriti, a former Iraqi general who defected shortly before the Gulf War in 1991, gave an interview to Ryan Mauro, in which he stated: I know Saddam's weapons are in Syria due to certain military deals that were made going as far back as the late 1980s that dealt with the event that either capitals were threatened with being overrun by an enemy nation. Not to mention I have discussed this in-depth with various contacts of mine who have confirmed what I already knew. At this point Saddam knew that the United States were eventually going to come for his weapons and the United States wasn't going to just let this go like they did in the original Gulf War. He knew that he had lied for this many years and wanted to maintain legitimacy with the pan Arab nationalists. He also has wanted since he took power to embarrass the West and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. After Saddam denied he had such weapons why would he use them or leave them readily available to be found? That would only legitimize President Bush, whom he has a personal grudge against. What we are witnessing now is many who opposed the war to begin with are rallying around Saddam saying we overthrew a sovereign leader based on a lie about WMD. This is exactly what Saddam wanted and predicted. Just look up: Saddam Sent WMD to Syria Then you also can say: "SEE Told ya So". Or wave your arms about and say: 'Warning-Warning, Will Robinson" Ya know, once, the Earth was Flat, and the Sun revolved around the Earth. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by oldNslow on 04/10/17 at 20:02:54 The estimate of people who have been killed in Syria since this mess began is somewhere in the neighborhood of four hundred thousand with an estimated seventeen or so thousand of them being children. 17 thousand. Children. The US response has been, essentially, "meh". Last Tuesday we wake up to a video of a handful of babies, supposedly killed by a chemical weapon dropped on their town. And within a few days there are cruise missiles hitting an airfield in Syria, a carrier battle group that was on the way to Australia for some R&R is turned around and is now off the coast of Korea, the Chinese have deployed troops along the North Korean border, and Putin has has been told he'd better watch his a*s.

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by WebsterMark on 04/12/17 at 10:35:34 It made no sense for Saddam to invade Kuwait and then stand up to the American forces. He had zero chance of success, but he did it anyway. In fact, he did it twice. The thing about some of these middle eastern guys is they don't think logically. They are in a bubble of their own making. The don't act rationally. Which is one concern I have about Trump and I hope he learns that quickly. Businessmen act rationally. Even when they seemingly act irrational by going out of their way to harm someone even if it cost them money, you can count on just how far they'll go. Even their crazy actions are predictable. National leaders? No way, not all of them. You think North Korea is acting rationally? Iran? I think China and Russia act rationally even if it doesn't seem so. They'll push but only to a point. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/12/17 at 15:10:34 VOICE WikiLeaks, April Glaspie, and Saddam Hussein BY STEPHEN M. WALTJANUARY 9, 2011facebooktwittergoogle-plusredditLinkedIn email WikiLeaks, April Glaspie, and Saddam Hussein I’m generally not inclined to take issue with my FP colleagues, but David Kenner’s recent posting on the WikiLeaks release of a cable recounting Saddam Hussein’s infamous meeting with U.S. ambassador April Glaspie deserves a response. In an article headlined "Why One U.S. Diplomat Didn’t Cause the Gulf War," Kenner argues that the new release shows that Glaspie should not be blamed for the U.S. failure to make a clear deterrent warning to Saddam. And that is what he accuses me and John Mearsheimer (and the Washington Post) of doing. In his words, "the Washington Post described her as ‘the face of American incompetence in Iraq.’ Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer piled on in a 2003 article for Foreign Policy, arguing that Glaspie’s remarks unwittingly gave Iraq a green light to invade Kuwait." I agree that the WikiLeaks release may exonerate Glaspie for being personally responsible for a diplomatic gaffe, but there are two problems with Kenner’s version of events. First, we never accused Glaspie of diplomatic incompetence, and we certainly didn’t "pile on." Here’s what we actually said in our 2003 piece: In a now famous interview with the Iraqi leader, U.S. Ambassador April Glaspie told Saddam, ‘[W]e have no opinion on the Arab-Arab conflicts, like your border disagreement with Kuwait.’ The U.S. State Department had earlier told Saddam that Washington had ‘no special defense or security commitments to Kuwait.’ The United States may not have intended to give Iraq a green light, but that is effectively what it did. Ya gottsta Dig up the truth. It helps to be paying attention to First Run news. Some stuff just doesn't get repeated. And they Always have a New Version, based on Information JUST coming to light. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by WebsterMark on 04/12/17 at 15:15:31 Sorry, that doesn't hold water. One comment (if it happened) couldn't possibly overcome what every one knew would be the result if they invaded. There was no ambiguity over what the US's response would be. This is not the lead up to WWII 75 years ago, we were all around when this occurred. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by WebsterMark on 04/13/17 at 09:22:15 I did read it. Saddam should not have been surprised at our response. He was not thinking he had some kind of green light blessing. In fact, he wasn't thinking. He was blinded by the bubble locked himself in. |

Title: Re: I remember JoG... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 04/13/17 at 09:32:28 Believe what you will. I can't actually talk to him about what he believed or why.

Doesn't MATTER who produces it, it's available. But what If someone wants Less Oil available for sale on the global market? Kuwait had been using directional drilling and supposedly taking oil from Iraqi reservoirs.. Is that even possible? Are the pay zones actually starting and stopping near the border? Would Kuwait NEED to go rustle oil frummunda Iraq? I don't know how to get those answers, but I think they are good questions. |

Too bad they are too proud to be wrong too. have reviewed the document carefully, and I believe it can be shown, without doubt, that the document does not provide any evidence whatsoever that the US government has concrete knowledge that the government of Syria was the source of the chemical attack in Khan Shaykhun, Syria at roughly 6 to 7 a.m. on April 4, 2017. In fact, a main piece of evidence that is cited in the document points to an attack that was executed by individuals on the ground, not from an aircraft, on the morning of April 4. This conclusion is based on an assumption made by the White House when it cited the source of the sarin release and the photographs of that source. My own assessment, is that the source was very likely tampered with or staged, so no serious conclusion could be made from the photographs cited by the White House. Ahhwell, maybe one will surprise me. |

Click the link above, running Hill & Knowlton's Washington office was Craig Fuller, one of Bush's closest friends and inside political advisors. The news media never bothered to examine Fuller's role until after the war had ended, but if America's editors had read the PR trade press, they might have noticed this announcement, published in O'Dwyer's PR Services before the fighting began: "Craig L. Fuller, chief of staff to Bush when he was vice-president, has been on the Kuwaiti account at Hill & Knowlton since the first day. He and [Bob] Dilenschneider at one point made a trip to Saudi Arabia, observing the production of some 20 videotapes, among other chores. The Wirthlin Group, research arm of H&K, was the pollster for the Reagan Administration. ... Wirthlin has reported receiving $1.1 million in fees for research assignments for the Kuwaitis. Robert K. Gray, Chairman of H&K/USA based in Washington, DC had leading roles in both Reagan campaigns. He has been involved in foreign nation accounts for many years. ... Lauri J. Fitz-Pegado, account supervisor on the Kuwait account, is a former Foreign Service Officer at the US Information Agency who joined Gray when he set up his firm in 1982."75 In addition to Republican notables like Gray and Fuller, Hill & Knowlton maintained a well-connected stable of in-house Democrats who helped develop the bipartisan support needed to support the war. Lauri Fitz-Pegado, who headed the Kuwait campaign, had previously worked with super-lobbyist Ron Brown representing Haiti's Duvalier dictatorship. Hill & Knowlton senior vice-president Thomas Ross had been Pentagon spokesman during the Carter Administration. To manage the news media, H&K relied on vice-chairman Frank Mankiewicz, whose background included service as press secretary and advisor to Robert F.

H&K has employed a stunning variety of opinion-forming devices and techniques to help keep US opinion on the side of the Kuwaitis. ... The techniques range from full-scale press conferences showing torture and other abuses by the Iraqis to the distribution of tens of thousands of 'Free Kuwait' T-shirts and bumper stickers at college campuses across the US."76 Documents filed with the US Department of Justice showed that 119 H&K executives in 12 offices across the US were overseeing the Kuwait account. "The firm's activities, as listed in its report to the Justice Department, included arranging media interviews for visiting Kuwaitis, setting up observances such as National Free Kuwait Day, National Prayer Day (for Kuwait), and National Student Information Day, organizing public rallies, releasing hostage letters to the media, distributing news releases and information kits, contacting politicians at all levels, and producing a nightly radio show in Arabic from Saudi Arabia," wrote Arthur Rowse in the Progressive after the war. Citizens for a Free Kuwait also capitalized on the publication of a quickie 154-page book about Iraqi atrocities titled The Rape of Kuwait, copies of which were stuffed into media kits and then featured on TV talk shows and the Wall Street Journal. The Kuwaiti embassy also bought 200,000 copies of the book for distribution to American troops |

The show featured an interview with Wirthlin executive Dee Alsop in which Alsop bragged of his work and demonstrated how audience surveys were even used to physically adapt the clothing and hairstyle of the Kuwait ambassador so he would seem more likeable to TV audiences. Wirthlin's job, Alsop explained, was "to identify the messages that really resonate emotionally with the American people." The theme that struck the deepest emotional chord, they discovered, was "the fact that Saddam Hussein was a madman who had committed atrocities even against his own people, and had tremendous power to do further damage, and he needed to be stopped."79 |

"The pattern underscored what Napoleon meant when he said that it wasn't necessary to completely suppress the news; it was sufficient to delay the news until it no longer mattered."88 Today the truth no longer matters after the Dumbmasses have decided what they want to believe. Doesn't matter how ridiculous it is to believe Assad did it. Doesn't matter what evidence is presented. Or, maybe, MAYBE, some of the people who have swallowed the lie will be able to see through it.. |
