Is This Why Obama Is Rushing To This Week's NATO Summit?

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As is well-known, tomorrow, September 4, a NATO summit begins in Wales to discuss and coordinate the western response to ongoing "Russian intervention" in Ukraine (not to be confused by US intervention in Ukraine meant to remove an standing, democratically-elected president), a summit for which Barack Obama has demonstrated impressive enthusiasm following his blitz tour of Europe, a continent reeling on the edge of a recessionary abyss courtesy of the "costs" Obama has imposed on Germany Russia in the aftermath of the Victoria Nuland-instituted local Kiev government.  

Perhaps it has something to do with this...

 

That's right: the NATO summit is set to take place at the magnificent Celtic Manor Resort, the location of the 2010 Ryder Cup.

But not only that: courtesy of an unprecedented security presence, it means that Obama will have no problem sneaking in at least 4 games for the two-day duration of the summit.

From AFP:

A huge security operation involving 9,000 British police officers will secure a luxury Welsh golf resort hosting a NATO summit later this week, officials said Tuesday.

 

Officers deployed across the golf course at the Celtic Manor Resort, in Newport, and along a 13-kilometre (eight-mile) steel fence around the site in anticipation of the arrival of 67 world leaders for crisis talks on Russia's role in the war in Ukraine.

 

US President Barack Obama is attending the meeting of the military alliance and security is tight, not least because Britain last week raised its terrorism threat level.

 

Overall, about 20 kilometres of security fencing has been erected around key venues in Newport and Cardiff, patrolled by squads of police on motorbikes as well as helicopters flying overhead. Police officers also fanned across the hotel's golf course, where hosted the 2010 Ryder Cup.

 

In a symbolic show of military strength, six warships will be anchored during the summit in Cardiff Bay, from Britain, France, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands and Norway.

And now we know why Obama is suddenly such an engaged, world-class diplomat.

On a serious note, is O any good at this game?  Im guessing 200 yards is a big drive for him ...... just like his basketball game was featured by his offensive rebounding (a little guy showcasing offensive rebounds says that he has no game).  can he hit it straight?  or does he charles barkely around the course and kick his ball forward, improve his lie and count his strokes erratically?

its ALL detailed here..a MUST LISTEN TO

 

I happened to find this youtube and its one you will definitely want to listen to. It contains 2 interviews with Christopher Jon Bjerkne. The first was just prior to the 2008 election, Obama/McCain, and the second hour about 2 weeks after that election.

Its astonishing when you realize it was made 8 years ago, yet explains everything, exactly where we are today, the why, how, who, etc...

If you can't listen now, save it for when you have an hour and listen to the first hour. I'm sure you will want to listen to the second

Christopher Jon Bjerkne adds chunks to the trail of crumbs that I have been following since early pre-teenagehood, when I couldn't understand the compulsive power of money/coins/purchasing power, as I didn't have it and was too young to 'legally' acquire it.

My relentless quest to work out 'how the world works' has taken me travelling through dozens of countries, including decades based in London during the Thatcher/Regan un-regulated free-market 'property and share-owning democracy' experiment', London 'Big Bang' etc.

All the time assembling crumbs into slices of bread, and recently plugging into sites like ZH, PCR, Chris Martenson, Andrew Maguire, David Stockman and many other tubers and bloggers. The net has opened the library doors (long may it last), and shed light into the festering fungoid musty stale corners of 'the official narrative'. Now I understand that the awkward feeling I had as a child that something was not right, was the pre-taste of the shit sandwich that I realise I've been force fed for over 50 years. Time to spit it out.

Kudos and respect to Christopher Jon Bjerkne for daring to join so many dots, and reveal a hidden picture. That this was spoken in '08, and for the most part has since been borne true by subsequent events, substantiates and elevates his measured tone. Challenging. Commended...

Go a step further back in time and read about the origins of Judaism, Christianity, Paganism and much much more, and how deep and long the competition and struggle to become the dominant cult was. Not finished yet, but well worth a look into: The Christ Conspiracy - The Greatest Story Ever Sold. http://books.google.com.au/books/about/The_Christ_Conspiracy.html?id=KnI...

"Sammy Davis Jr, during his early 70s Satanist phase, made this unsold tv pilot with a plot that plays like a satanic reversal of 'It's a Wonderful Life', complete with a Christmas-time setting. Sammy is a zany, misfit demon who is on the outs with Lucifer (Christopher Lee) because he hasn't captured a soul in over a thousand years. He gets one last chance when he is assigned a burned-out salesman (Jack Klugman) who is thinking of selling his soul. Sammy scambles to satisfy Jack's desire for wealth and revenge and the usual sitcom merriment ensues. Also starring Gino Conforti as Sammy's demonic rival and Adam West as Klugman's sleazy boss. Originally broadcast by NBC on Valentines Day, 1973.

For more info on Sammy Davis Jr's interest in The Church of Satan, read this article from Vice.com:"

http://www.vice.com/read/sammy-devil-...

The pilot  (circa 1973):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xw4okTJpE1k

Sammy Davis Jr. was 'inept, inefficient, and totally incompetent'. You're right. Obama is far worse!

Sammy was a tribe member as well. Obama, well; he's (whatever the fuck he is), but he's NOT a tribe member. He's not even a mediocre golfer. I bet he loses every game of checkers as well.

jarrett is phoney Iranian... anything her family did when sent to Iran was to further globalist/NWO ends...  look into her background, very telling.  read between the lines:

"Jarrett was born in Shiraz, Iran, to African American parents James E. Bowman and Barbara Taylor Bowman. Her father, a pathologist and geneticist, ran a hospital for children in Shiraz in 1956, as part of a program where American physicians and agricultural experts sought to help communitize developing countries' health and farming efforts. When she was five, the family moved to London for one year, later moving to Chicago in 1963.[3] In 1966, her mother was one of four child advocates that created the Erikson Institute. The Institute was established to provide collective knowledge in child development for teachers and other professionals working with young children.[4]

As a child, Jarrett spoke Persian and French.[5] One of her great-grandfathers was Jewish.[6]"

Golfers are that way. Have you heard the one where a group of golfers are playing the 11th hole and when a funeral procession drives by one of the group stops, puts his hat on his heart and watches silently as they go by. "Wow, that must have been someone special for you to pause your game like that!"

"It was my wife"

Some might say "It was my country" would be a better response but I don't think Kenya is having any big problems.

If he is troubled about it, it's probably becuase he's running for re-election.  He's been trying to keep a low profile and hopes that no one notices he's up for re-election.

I'm not kidding. That's his strategy.

Disavow his role in supporting Obama and hoping no one comes to the polls to vote against him.

Bit risky in Cardiff, too. If the crew go off for a night on the town, they'll come back to a stripped-out hulk. Nicking stuff and selling it to the scrap-man is a growth industry around there.

EU could in theory laugh him off the stage, but that would mean they would have to start creating a proper military role for the EU. As you probably know, Europeans of the 21st century are terrified of everything military, and are more than happy to outsource their defense spending to the US. As such, the EU can't afford to alienate their one and only true military partner. The European leaders of the late 20th/early 21st centuries believed that soft power is all that is needed in modern geopolitics. They have now been proven wrong, making them even more dependent on the US than they already were.

Europeans of the late 20th century, yes. but you forget european MIC interests. your narrative is correct up to the point where the US spent 50% of the total NATO expenditures. But the proportion has risen to 75% to 25% and the Great NATO Bazaar becoming insanely skewed towards the US MIC

five countries to watch: France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Poland. with the UK as the usual undecided murkying further the waters. If those five forget the UK and get pissed enough about the superpowers.... guns and butter

Mr. Johnson tried that guns and butter business and the results of that experiment is partially the reason we find ourselves in the mess we are in today.

He left Mr. Nixon with a choice that was no choice at all. Bye bye gold anchor, hello fiscal insanity.

Who is going to pay for the response to the Russki invasion and reaquisition of Eastern Ukraine. Not sure the US can, and assuredly not the European countries, excluding Germany. I think Deutchland has got a number of chits that they are holding to keep the EU Euro alive for the US bankers and international corporations, and maintaining the Euro to keep the US economy floating. Germany is regaining the power it once held in Europe for many, many years. Keeping the US military there, for their local spending and having reduced military budgets, means they are growing economically, thanks to the US. However, the time will come when they no longer will be bought off and will want to exert the power Germany has always exhibited since it was formed. Russia and Germany have simiilar goals when it comes to the US. Get them out of here, and remind the world how much debt the US is incurring in it's hedgemony attempts. Knowing the US won't give Germany it's gold back has to be a warning for the rest of the world, who can you trust?
