Not to even dare mention what the Russian allied Serb Chetniks are prepared to do to EU Muslims at the drop of a hat.

Amen. And may I add, I pray that Your Holy Spirit puts it into our President's heart to always, always begin with seeking Your guidance in any path or action to be taken, or not taken, as the case may be. Dear Lord, he is the leader of a nation made great by YOU and no other, let neither him nor us ever forget that. Surround him with the hedge of Your protection from enemies both foreign and domestic.

Help him to always remember that we can only be that great nation, to Your glory, if we order ourselves as a moral people. In Jesus’ Holy Name,
Amen.

That sounds intriguing. Would you have a link to an article or something that would fill me in?

A book called Seasons In Hell about the Bosnian War is my main source of understanding regarding that conflict. It’s written by a bedwetting liberal decrying to brutal mistreatment of the poor innocent Muslims at the hands of the Chetniks. If one reads it with the correct mindset however, it is a step by step guide on how to cleanse land of Muslims.

Thanks, I will get that book and read it. I’m well-versed in not wearing the left’s tinted goggles when I read their writings, almost everything “mainstream” has to be vetted for lefty subliminals these days. I’ve gotten pretty good at it. Conservatives need to write more on foreign policy (and I don’t mean the neo-cons). But then, the left has academia and the media sewn up, it seems.

The CIA (lead by a muslim convert) was backing the allies of ISIS in Aleppo weren’t they?

While the Pentagon has been backing the Kurds.

And they’ve been fighting each other. Another piece of Obama’s legacy goes away.

[McGruff]

Almost missed this with all the news about McCain.

Nothing has changed since 2013.

Thank God!

[Psalm 144]

I wonder if the decision was known earlier and spun that misanthrope into the hospital.

[Psalm 144]

I agree, but he is in great danger simply doing this.

We need some sunshine, however. And if we do not expose and try some of these officials for their malignant, criminal actions, the Nuremberg Trials are reduced to a mere popularity contest.

[Psalm 144]

Agree on all points, except that I’d opt for executions rather than incarcerations where the ‘policy goals’ resulted in the deaths of innocents.

[Psalm 144]

Amen and amen. I have exactly the same thoughts. Exactly.

[Psalm 144]

“Trump just volunteered for assassination by the service that makes the others nervous. You don’t reign in the CIA without consequences.”

I agree with you. Which is why the organization should be dissolved, exposed to sunlight at least within select Congressional committees and the executive.

Salvage what is not corrupt or perverse, can the rest, and reinstitute a successor organization with a new name which is subordinate to the military and answerable for all actions and cash flow. Similar to the KGB overhaul into the FSB, but more thorough.

Fire the rest. If those continue to play the same games, kill them. They are seditious.

Yeah, I figure we’re at a point where the rule of law only applies when it’s convenient for the elites so, it doesn’t really apply anymore. We can get back to it after this existential war is over. To some extent, Trump’s election was a result of real Americans giving up on the political system. Hillary’s non prosecution proved that the judicial system is dead. What do we have left? The scotus’ gay marriage and Obama care decisions show that the US Constitution is dead.

[Garth Tater]

What do we have left?

Inside the system... very little. We are still blessed though with a great culture that is still running strong - at least outside of the big cities. We also have technology going for us. It's never been easier to make do without sucking up to the powers that be.

Unfortunately, they aren't the type to leave people alone so I'm expecting them to keep on pushing. Should be interesting to see which straw it is that breaks the camel's back and sets the push back in motion.
