"Mission Relaunched": The Economist Goes There

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Nobel Peace Prize-winner Barack Obama became president on a platform of pacifism, and withdrawal from America's numerous conflicts. 6 years later, he is where Dubya was a decade ago, only on the other side, according to the latest Economist cover (and story).

And Reuters with a good summary in "Islamic State drags Obama back into Mideast quagmire"

I've had the same forbidden thought.

Visualize Vice President Bite Me slipping on a banana peel, bumping his head, and becoming incapacitated.

Dem Senate confirms Elizabeth Warren as VP.

President Obungle dies tragically when a 20 foot tall equestian statue of Bill Clinton topples over and crushes him at a dedication ceremony at the Clinton Library.

President Warren is sworn in on Air Force One as a grieving Michelle Obama stands at her side.

Washington, D. C. is renamed Obama, D. C.

A marble mausoleum the size of the Parthenon is built on the Washington Mall, and a 48-inch gas pipeline is built to supply gas from North Dakota to feed the "eternal flame".

Spot on. I will not be resubscribing to the Economist in the forseeable future after dropping it a few years ago. The Economist finds it so difficult to criticize Obama that doing nothing becomes "studious inaction." A studious person would not have made references to the "junior varsity" or other ill-informed comments. As your cover parody implies, "studious inaction" must be a euphemism for playing golf.

As Obama ramps up war against Syria on orders of the Saudis, the Ebola epidemic in Africa is only getting much worse.  NBC's Dr. Nancy Snyderman pooh-poohed the threat of Ebola around July 31, 2014.  Snyderman has all the qualifications a doctor needs to serve on an Obamacare death panel. 

O/T: Why the sudden surge in news stories about the hazards of triclosan, a germ fighting ingredient in some soaps?  Triclosan was a nothing story until four months ago, news filler.  But right now, the manufacturer of Dial soap is under great FDA pressure to remove the bacteriostatic agent triclosan from its hand cleaning products.  Why the high pressure from the FDA, a do-nothing agency that does nothing much about the marketing of Tylenol, a liver poison, and Celebrex, which was supposed to be banned.  

Maybe because triclosan can neutralize the Ebola virus.  To find out, Dial should ship batches of its liquid soaps to Liberian clinics, to determine if triclosan is effective in limiting the transmission of the Ebola virus.  Washing your hands with soaps containing triclosan and using triclosan liquid soaps as a surface cleaner may be a cheap way to lessen the spread of the Ebola virus.  What has Dial to lose?  Nothing.  It would be interesting to find out if Dial foaming liquid soap containing less than ½ of 1% triclosan arrests the spread of the Ebola virus.  Triclosan probably will be effective, which is why our secret rulers, all eugenicists, wants to ban this bacteriostatic agent from the marketplace.

"So did you ever think these moderates would turn on the Syrian Alawites and commit genocide?"

I am sure he will be saying as much as Bush is saying about making Iraq not livable for Christians and wiping out Christainity in Iraq, and for that matter, everwhere in the Middle East.

"Blasphemy"?  Bullshit!  The idiots who wore that uniform in the last 50 years voluntarily -- unless conscripted -- were/are just Useful Idiots.

There is NO "glory" or "honor" in going to a foreign land, and devastating it bullet by bullet, bomb by bomb, with Agent Orange, mines, etc. of people who just want to be left the fuck alone.  Fuck the LOT of them!  I hope they rot in Hell -- were such a fictitious place to actually exist.

NO sane and decent person would be enlisting these days.  They are either Willfully Ignorant, Economically Desperate enough to sell out their Principles, or fucking Psychos.  Any way you slice it, they are all MERCENARIES. 

p.s. The only difference between a Merc and a Soldier is... who pays them.  The former is a freelancer, the latter has a paycheck.  Same difference.  Especially since all Mercs are former military men, for whom sheeple put on Made In China bumper stickers.  Oh the irony, the irony:  Support Our Troops.  Might as well say "Support our Mercs".

Lacks Empathy.

"President William McKinley was deeply ambivalent about war against Spain. The last president to have served in the Civil War, McKinley said he had seen too much carnage at battles like Antietam to be enthusiastic about war with Spain. "I've been through one war. I have seen the dead piled up, and I do not want to see another.""

 

Without an actual human experience to obtain a capacity to have empathy, you're an idiot.

Interesting information from the inside.

http://ulstermanbooks.com/d-c-whispers-mr-president-choice-youre-exposed/

At some point during this meeting the president was told outright by Pentagon officials, “Mr. President, you have no choice. You’re exposed here. Besides, this is going to make great television.” That may very well have been the real source of the president’s anger during that meeting. He walked out, then it was reported the president, Jarrett, and a personal aide walked back in, and he agreed to the more limited air strikes and training of rebel forces in Syria, with Jarrett clearly twisting his arm to do so.

 Now here is where things get even more interesting. It is now believed by some that ISIS was tipped off as to the exact timing of the bombing campaign. It is not known by anyone I have contact with, if that came from anyone associated within the administration, another Arab state involved, etc. There is more though. Ansar al-Sharia, the al Qaeda-affiliate group that took the brunt of the initial Syria bombings, has direct ties to the 2012 Benghazi U.S. consulate attack. (the Khorasan Group is simply another affiliate of Ansar al-Sharia, though the administration used the name of that group as political cover)

This was pointed out to me by another congressional staffer who then indicated the motivation for focusing on Ansar al-Sharia was due to that group’s leader having hinted during the summer to contacts in Turkey of his intention to leak information pertaining to the others linked to the Benghazi incident if his group was not allowed more influence in the build-up against Assad. These links would apparently prove damaging to Turkey and the White House. If true, and if the Ansar al-Sharia leader was actually silenced, it sends a very strong message to others who may be in the know regarding those earlier allegations of gunrunning from Libya to Turkey and then Syria, to keep their mouths shut.

 Perhaps the combination of killing a potential scandal threat, and some “great television” was enough to convince Jarrett, and then Obama, to proceed with the bombing campaign.

Very interesting Salvador. 

A related link at that site was also informative: http://ulstermanbooks.com/d-c-whispers-barack-obamas-outraged-tantrum-mi...

Within seconds, Barack Obama returned again to the just concluded briefing, pointing at the still seated Pentagon staff and indicating how “inappropriate” it was to “try and paint all of Islam with the same brush.” The president repeated similar remarks, his mood going from agitation to outrage. His voice carried to several other West Wing offices.

The senior adviser, who did not originally return with the president into the briefing, suddenly re-appeared alongside him,  as well as the president’s personal aide. She was smiling, and telling everyone “we’re done here” which she repeated several times and then led the president back out into the hallway.

News of the outburst reached senior Pentagon officials. They had no reaction. At least no reaction they shared with others.

Within the hour the president was flying off to Camp David, and not long after that, bombs were dropping in Syria.

It should be no surprise that foreign money finds its way into American Political elections.

Thus every four years Israel (Especially Netanyahu) drags out their international coloring book.

They draw red-lines, blue-skies, dark-days, yellow-bellies, white-knights, black-hats, gray-areas, brown-fields and green-pastures.

All the colors favor Israeli positions and paint the American Political Candidate into a corner.

You are either for Israel or an Anti-Semite.  There is no gray-area.

If you favor America over any other nation; you are a xenophobe.  They color words too!

No matter how you start out, you end up as a carbon copy of the incumbent on all issues that matter.

We need to be more proud to be called an American than ashamed to be called an Anti-Semite, when the subject is American interests first.

No elected Political Candidate in America is Independent or principled.

This goes without saying and it's simply explained by the fact that the Real Permanent Government behind the curtain pulls all the levers of power. On the face of it Obama could not have been more different than Shrub but as you say his actions are almost the same.  QED.

Exactly why I will never waste my time voting again until the whole system is shit-canned and replaced with Republican principles. No, Virginia, I'm not referring to those dirt bag manicured, tailored, grinning psychopaths that have an elephant as a symbol.

Voting for either of two evils is an evil act.

Look at the trend.  In the First Gulf War, 1990, the US stopped at the Iraq border because the Muslim allies would not allow the US into Iraq.  Iraq was a Middle East matter that would be dealt with by the Middle Eastern Powers.

Fast forward today and the US owns the Middle East.  Even when they try to step away, Middle Eastern decision-making pulls the US back in.  Now is the time to address the Muslim problem within the Middle East.  Expect a grand secularization puscht to be brought forward.

There is no Muslim based Power in the Middle East.  Any powers in the Middle East are Jewish based.  What you have is the Islamic reformation process which is secreting ISI, ISIS, ISIL tendencies.  In dealing with the herd, you separate out those secreted elements that need to be addressed, and address them.  The remainder of the herd will appreciate the guiding hand that sheltered them from the excesses of their self-imposed leadership.

For whatever his shortcomings, Bush was at least a pilot in the National Guard. IOW, he rated to be photographed in the flightsuit.

The Bamster is just a douche bag. Without affirmative action, he would have finished a third rate law school and be a south side alderman in Chicago's city hall.

Without daddy Bush wouldn't have been a 3rd rate Harvard grad, or a pilot. You have Stockholm Syndrome. You might want to get it checked.

CIA puppet sightings are no longer necessary.

In order to save on bandwidth, it's only necessary to report sightings of people who are NOT CIA puppets, agents, or assets.

Technically he is not a puppet, he is a showman.

showman - a person skilled at making effective presentations, a sponsor who books and stages public entertainments.

The ultimate entertainer, marketeer and sales representative.
