Finally, a Wartime President

SAN FRANCISCO, Ca --- Tonight, President Bush became a bonafide 'wartime president'.  The key skill of a wartime president is to uplift the American spririt with carefully limited military facts and mission, while preventing the enemy from knowing our strategy.

For the first time, he spoke like the commander-in-chief, and not as a politician.  Hidden between the lines is a threat to both Iraq and Iran.  Iraq, this is your last opportunity.  Iran, just like we targeted our enemy in Somalia 48 hours ago, we will target you if you continue to aid the insurgents.

For the first time, he showed he understood the conflict from a military viewpoint.  Whether you disagree with the 'surge', he has his vision of the concluding this conflict.  My opinion:  He's using the Nixon strategy.  In 1973, Nixon resumed the bombing of North Vietnam, massive bombing, unrelentless almost 24 hours per day.  It was a prelude to negotiations.  Bush's "surge" I believe is the same strategy.

There will be movement in the next several months.  Positive, I believe

Why Saddam HAD to Die

        SAN FRANCISCO, Ca ----

I wrote at my personal Blog on March 20th: 

"ROME (AFP) - Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi said Saddam Hussein should still be considered Iraq's legal president and the current government illegitimate as it was elected under an occupation regime.

 That's the problem we have.  The Libyan "leader" demonstrates it-- Without appearing too cold blooded, I say Saddam must be executed for Iraq to survive as a nation."

Continue reading "Saddam Must Be Executed" ยป

Now there is another reason he must die:  Terrorist leaders are getting the message.  Each day in Iraq and in Afghanistan, the  media (often relunctantly) is reporting they're being hunted down, by troops and drones, and killed.  In other words, you will pay a price for heading up a terrorist organization.  Saddam, to the moment they put the noose around his neck, will believe himself above reproach.  He will to the very last moment be in denial that he could be taken down.  All terrorist chiefs, drug lords, and think that.  WRONG!

Israeli Yuppies Wakeup Call

Haifa_missle_1San Francisco, Ca -- Another generation of Israelis has been shaken from their complacency.  Missles raining in from Northern Lebanon, courtesy of Hezbollah... This softer generation --- latte gulping, consumer generation -- is learning the painful way that their 'neighbors' have one mission and one mission only:  To eliminate Israel as a state and nation.

I learned that when I worked in Saudi Arabia.  It was a constant theme I kept hearing from locals.  It's their obsession. At our work site, books were left in the bathrooms about the evil Israel. They tried to indoctrinate you at every chance.

The older Israeli generation experienced the horrific world of extermination.  Systematic Hatred. But this younger generation, was lulled into a delusionary belief that their country was just another consumer society. 

Now, They must dig deep into their collective will to face the years ahead.  Iran will arm their thugs in Lebenon.  Syria will arm Hamas.  And those rockets will someday carry nuclear tips.  How will they younger generation react?  What is to be done?
