What does one do about a paranoid dictator?


How do you solve a problem like Maria?

"CIA action?"

Didn't Congress slam the brakes on that some years ago? (Not that the law means much to the "I've got a pen and I've got a phone" President.)

I don’t think it is that serious...


...yet.

I agree that, although history repeats itself, it never does so identically. I mean, after all, this is not Sarajevo.

Barry told Putin we would retaliate for the hacking of our election.

This would be overkill, like using a B-52 for crop dusting..............

We still have thermonuclear bombs in Turkey. Not even removed during or after the Turkey coup attempt......

You think the sand rats finding Husseins chemical weapons storage facility was an Islamic day of celebration, you aint seen nuthin yet.

Nothing tells me that we would not leave them there to be plundered by the jihadis.

What does this mean?

This means the globalists failed to flip the electoral college and they are moving to the next phase to deny Trump the presidency:

Use Turkey to provoke Russia and use NATO and EU to start World War 3.

Putin will see this is an obvious ploy, wait till after Trump is sworn in and they kick Turkey out of NATO. Turkey will be swiftly thumped and partitioned into Greek, Russian, Kurd and Turk zones and then Russia will be sending a replacement ambassador to the new capital, Constantinople.

I have never given Barry high marks in International ANYTHING. The man is a manchurian slum feral from Chicago.

He can’t see past the first “I” that he utters.

Assuming that any govt agency under the authority of the executive branch is legitimate and will do what a normal thinking American would do in similar circumstances is dangerous in the extreme.

I don’t know much about this Ambassador or who else might be hurt / killed, but, still, prayers for them and their families...
