Fact Or Fiction: Raytheon CEO To Obama "It's Getting Out Of Hand In Libya"
Fact or Fiction...
WALTHAM, MA - Using the subject heading “you should definitely check this out,” Thomas A. Kennedy, CEO of the defense contractor Raytheon, reportedly emailed President Obama today with yet another link to an article detailing mounting tensions in Libya.
“Hey Barack, just thought you might be interested in this,” read the email, the sixth such message sent from Kennedy in the past month, in which he CC’d Defense Secretary Ashton Carter and provided a link to a recent CNN story about ISIS gaining a foothold in the Libyan city of Derna.
“Looks like things are really getting out of hand over there. A lot of people are saying it could destabilize the whole region.”
Sources confirmed that several minutes after sending the email, Kennedy received a curt reply from Obama indicating that he had already seen the story earlier in the week when it was sent to him by executives at Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, ATK, General Dynamics, and Boeing.
Clearly the above, courtesy of the Onion, is fiction. Here is the fact.

Guess which country's companies make more money on war than any other's? http://www.fastcodesign.com/3042669/infographic-of-the-day/infographic-a... by @DrCrypt via @FastCoDesign
Surprising no one, the United States makes more money on war than any other country. Really, it's not even close.
Hence we have been in a state of perpetual war since WW2. Hence the never ending "threat" of Al-Qaeda, excuse me I mean ISIS, like the New Coke and Coke Classic. Same shit with a new name.
Reply to Raytheon:
Talk to Wookiee or the Jarrett-bitch. Ta-ta! ;-)
B.O.
Raytheon CEO is asking the wrong person, he needs to ask the Tribe
Pfizer, if your stock price erection last less than 4 hours call your closest member of the plunge protection team and have no worries
lol obama is going insane over the conflict in his mind between the lie that islam
is peaceful he picked up as a kid in philippines and the reality of islamic horrors smashing
him in the face on a daily if not hourly basis. one day he will have to pick a side.
and ps hooray for rudy giuliani's candor.
.....don't you mean, one day he may have to reconsider the side he long ago picked?
i absolutely do.
Down arrows are funny. Anyway, I wouldn't give Guilani any credit for stating an obvious fact that most people who are plugged in to reality have known for years. And just in case Rudy is reading the comments in here today, BHO wasn't ust being raised by Commies, his father is/was a member of the CPA who was basically being cased by grampa Dunham (no relation to the mess who is flaunting her lack of assetts on HBO every Sunday night). His name is Frank Marshall Davis. Google him and tell me he's not a ringer for the CIC's pop. So if Rudy wants to make people think he's up on what the real story is he better start reading, he's got alot of catching up to do.
And isn't it interesting that we are at a point that things are getting so fucking weird that an Onion headline sounds like an actual event. How many CEO's wish they could pick up a phone and say to him, "What the fuck Barry? I've got thousands of employees over there and you're taking selfies of your fucking self on the clock!"
Honesty is always the first casualty. Rudy should have known better, but we have to rely on old people who just don't give a fuck what anybody thinks.
Eisenhower warned us about this...
Military-Industrial Complex Speech, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961AMERICAN MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
US govts come and go, however aggressive foreign policy always remains the same.
Had the USUK conquest of Western Europe 1943-45 not occurred, the Red Army would have paused at the Pyrenees, and then pushed through to the Atlantic, toppling Franco on the way, thus completing ‘Vladivostok -> Lisbon’ empire. AMIC saves Western Europe from communist domination - debt to AMIC expected to be paid in perpetuity by Germany, Italy, and France. Western European countries unite with the US to halt westward expansion of Soviet communism.
AMIC objectives after collapse of Soviet empire:
1. Promote EU/NATO eastward expansion
2. Prevent Russian economic integration with Europe
3. Suppress EU initiatives to supplant NATO
4. Consolidate control over Middle-East oil reserves
5. Contain Chinese military power in Asia
AMIC fear and insecurity over ‘Vladivostok -- Lisbon’ economic block/alliance.
AMIC has many operatives and installations across Europe including Ramstein, Aviano, Bondsteel-Kosovo.
AMIC distrust of Western European operatives/elites in Germany, France and Italy.
AMIC insecurity over the long term future of NATO
AMIC monopoly control of geostrategic maritime passages - Bosporus, Gibraltar, Suez, Gulf, Panama, Malacca etc.
People, you all f*cked up. It is not the US military-industrial complex needs Obama. No, the Tribe needs the US military-industrial complex.
Without he US military-industrial complex, the Tribe and its headquarters in the City and Israel will be gone in no-time. It is like a regular mafia, i.e., as soon as its armed goons gone the fear is gone and mafia gone. It is that simple.
"...Without he US military-industrial complex, the Tribe and its headquarters in the City and Israel will be gone in no-time..."
That is, until Israel's Big Six threats are neutralized: Libya-Egypt-Lebanon-Syria-Iraq-Iran. After that, Israel can kick U.S. taxpayers to the side of the road. The Leviathan gas will be fowing to the EU by then and Iraqi oil will be shipped from the Haifa terminal.
Bibi (between standing ovations by treasonous dual-citizen Israeli-firster congressmen) will remind everyone once agian about Iran's threat to their existance.
As confirmation, I offer the following recent hilarious military exercise by Iran: Iranian speedboats taking out a wooden U.S. aircraft carrier:
IRGC Missiles Destroy Mock Aircraft Carrier in Persian Gulf
Six weeks (or months - I forget) away from a nuclear bomb and they're drilling on taking out an unaccompanied U.S. aircraft carrier with speedboats. Sorry Bibi - I'm honestly not too worried about their nuclear weapon engineering skills. Unless they plan to lob chunks of uranium ore at enemy aircraft carriers from their speedboats.
Somewhere in the Persian Gulf Iran stages 'nuclear' attack on a U.S. aircraft carrier:
Landing Signal Officer to Arresting Gear Officer on deck: "OWwww! That Iranian fucker in that little boat just threw a ROCK at me...WTF??"
Looks like rocks are only a small part of their nuclear strategy.
I give you the mighty Iranian dual-tipped spear of tactical carrier destruction.

Q: How many democraps does it take to change a light bulb...

I don't want to miss my tee time...
There, fixed it for you.
I haz a peaze prize, and I'm not afeared to uses itz
Ummm...there was a HUGE difference between new coke and coke classic. New coke was closer to pepsi than classic.
But yea..still shit..not SAME shit..so not the best example.
Just sayin.
And, your welcome.
And I for one loved it.
I like the idea that we make elected officials wear their sponsors on their suits like NASCAR does.
That way we know who owns them.
It's shouldn't be this way...
Excellent idea. Perhaps ALEC could work on that for us.

I've always thought this was a brilliant idea. Don't know who came up with it but it's right on the money.
There's an app for that. You're welcome

..... Robin Williams used to say that in his stand routines as well as a movie he was in.... too bad it wasn't the fudgepacker who offed himself instead of Robin...
This has urban legend written all over it.
I see it's ONION now.
Uhmmmm, it's the Onion.
I'm pretty sure The Onion really exists.
One of the best methods used to obfuscate the truth is to present it as fiction BEFORE it is exposed as the truth.
Can "The Onion" be a CIA COINTELPRO Operation since the CIA controls the press?
Who is to say that Corporate Executives within the Defense Industry do not have a direct line to the President?
I would be surprised if they did not...since it pertains to the interests of "National Security".
The real email reads:
"Hey motherfucker, we put you into office & can take you out, too.
Get to work. You will forever be our bitch."
Sincerely,
Military-Industrial-Financial Complex
Gotta keep mother Israel fat & happy.
The real e-mail says:
"Nice work there in Libya. But we didn't move as many Javelins as we wanted, although it was a great idea to sell them, than have Special Forces go in, buy them back and break them. We have a special on all of our ground to surface missiles next month and were thinking that we could plow some dirt in ISIS territory (oops, ISIL). What if we allow rebels (the same guys we sold the Javelins to) to call in strikes with Raytheon products. Seems like a match made in heaven. Get it? Heaven...
See you next week, what's the tee time again?"
Great colorful pinwheel of death.
Get one at your county fair soon!

Keep dreamin' Barry...
The soon to be late Thomas A. Kennedy, CEO.
I knew it was the Onion.
In real life, his associates address Barry with "Hey Kenya peep dis, yo"
reality might put the Onion out of business.....it's getting weirder than their satire.
Just ask Caterpillar.
The "real news" is becoming its own parody.
I read things on a regular basis that I think are Onion articles and turn out to be MSM.
Or hey Barry, do what I say or I will tell your secretes on all of the media stations we control. Good boy.
Hey numbskull, we can't ship the rest of these orders until you clear current inventory. Get to work! - Thomas A. Kennedy, CEO
the onion is lamer than reality these days.
reality goes, hey hopey, this is ceo dick schlong. suck my cock asap.
Raytheon.. hey those are the guys that make those $1MM a pop Tomahawks right?
Seriously tho.. watch the morons in the current administration not only lose the gains over there, but leave the place far worse than it was originally. Talk about a bunch of amateurs.
what does an F-18 cost?
What does a Drone Cost?
What do other bombs and missles cost?
Drones and conventional bombs/missles are probably to most cost effective.
But, bombing from above does little to actual win a war.
Hell, in order to win this war we have to kill every single muslim, and I think there are a few billion of those roaches hiding in caves and section 8 housing. I think Raytheon will be in business for a long time.
"Seriously tho.. watch the morons in the current administration not only lose the gains over there, but leave the place far worse than it was originally. Talk about a bunch of amateurs."
Pay attention, that was the plan all along.
When they say we took out a "brutal dictator" that really means we eliminated the only guy that could keep things in check.
Other then that , what are these "gains" you speak of?
Transaltion: Come on let's gear up the war machine and get this party started. It's getting harder to drive the bottom line through financial manipulation.
Maybe the beloved war machine CEO should consider 3D printers for his weapons if he is worried about the bottome line.
Maybe America's foreign policy is actually crafted by The Onion?
Making controlled opposition irrelevant.
Maybe IR, part of Operation Mockingbird?
and for a large donation...I might read it for you...
cluster fruk in Libya by design, The world was a better place with sadanm and quadafi. I don't get these wars against religious fundamentalism. Yet we take out the secular leaders. WTF Theres no fixing it.
it is fixed, it's called a sustainable business model
They're not trying to fix anything! They're deliberately destabilizing entire regions to go in and take control. The "war on terror"is a war for oil in Iraq and Lybia just as much as WW2 was a race to secure the Arab states into the Standard Oil game plan.
The Colonel was respected and held authority far beyond Lybia. His biggest trading partner, Italy was about to launch the oil for Euro trade which would have been a desaster to the USD and America.
All this nonsense about loyalty and allegiances to the US doesn't benefit anyone. The sooner we realize that the US is the biggest enemy of all men and women in this world, the sooner can we discuss real progress and international peace.
Finally, a redux!
Who do we invest in? Who is the new Blackwater/ Halliburton???
Just try to make sure your kid isn’t the new Pat Tillman I guess.
I fucking hate beggar CEOs. Drum up your business motherfucker!
I received that same fucking e-mail with the heading, “you should definitely check this out,”and when I clicked on the link, it was a video of Joe Biden riding a Sybian. Don't open it.
Joe Biden being creepy + Photoshop + anime = http://i.imgur.com/SsBXgVP.jpg
They don't call him Creepy Veepy for nothin...
"We came, we saw, he died." -- spoken with her signature, evil cackle by Secretary of State, Hitlery Clinton
I wonder how anyone could have seen that clip and still vote for her. Need to dub that into her horrible "Stand With Hillary" video. That would be great.
LOL, It's not like executives @ Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, ATK, General Dynamics, and Boeing, aren't part of some cartel or anything.
Take the CEO's of those companies and stick them at the helm of any major bank and they'ld be right at home after a few hours, and have their secret chatrooms up and running.
Fuck me! Those Psychopaths would have a direct connection to the Fusion Centers, Shitcago Gulags & other local, regional, state & federal black sites.
fiction
the real email reads something like
ratheon: hey, mission complete! we have really fucked things up over there. see i told you that we could destabilize the region.
potus: i told you not to bother me when im on the links! just call veejay(vallerie jarett) she will fill me in.
Jeez! They don't even filter this stuff through the pentagon slush filter!
I'd think the CEO of Raytheon would use carrier pigeons or hellfire missiles to deliver messages.
What? How about things are getting out of countrol here at home especially now the Pure Evil Criminal Psychopaths at the Chicago Police CIA Black Site.
That had to be the Onion, in reality Obama would have replied with "MIKE, MIKE MIKE MIKE! - guess what DAY it IS?".
good one!
Translation, QUICK we need another war because our profits are plunging and my bonus and stock options are at risk.
To which Obama should have said: "call up Hillary Clinton. That was her war start to finish. The defense dept told her 'no'. She went ahead with it anyway. And while you're at it, call her female minions Samantha Powers and Susan Rice. This was the all woman war. The 'humanitarian war'. Go luck."
We disappeared some folks...
His name is Matt DeHart
North America is not a safe place.
More like:
We Fascist disappeared & Tirtured some Folks.
This is even beneath child molestors and selling herion to school kids. And, for what? So they can live a little better. They are happy to kill thousands of innocent people to enrich themselves. They will burn in hell.
Everyone will burn apart from salvation, the supernatural act of God where He takes a spiritually dead person (all people) and breathes life into them; like He did physically with all people. Does Christ call you "family"?
I had a dream once where he called me an asshole.
Does that count?
The U.S. has become the Beast we are supposedly fighting against.
I love my country but loathe our "leadership" which is taking us straight into WW3.
Sad days for Amerika.
They don't need to email him.
They wait for his email.
Quote: "A lot of people are saying it could destabilize the whole region.”
-
That is how you know the MEMO is B.S.; D.C., London, Tel-Aviv, & Vatican City have ensured this REGION will be and continue to be and has been destabilized as far as the east is to the west. Nothing new here; what about where you are?
BS....he would've known his XBOX handle if it were real and only the important people
and children know that

I notice lobbying is down for 2014. Must have been the weather.
The problem pretending to be the solution.
They don't want to wait for Hitlery.
WTF - so now we have the MIC telling our prez what he should do?.......oh, wait.......same as it has been since Eisenhower I guess....
Actually, since Lincoln, at least
don't get me started on dishonest Abe.......
Wars and Chaos is great for busine$$. Mission accomplished.!
Many Thanks.
Mission accomplished, indeed. We stole their gold, the French stole the water aquifer, and the Brits stole their oil. Libyan corpses and starving Libyan children were not part of the mission, only collateral damage.
.... "then are you going to use our 'smart weapons'?????"
“Raytheon CEO is asking the wrong person, he needs to ask the Tribe”, by “SickDollar”.
Ten to one the “tribe” has his testicles in a vise grip; same for executives at all other munitions makers.
After all, what should we expect from a “tribe” that has been perpetrating genocides and mass plunders for 5,000 years – at least.
I prefer to call them ‘Judeo-Bolsheviks’. They weren’t always known as such. According to my research, they first appeared as Elamite priests, merchants and money lenders. They then moved west and took the name Babylonian, then “children of god”, the “chosen ones” et cetera – and now, the title, ‘Judeo-Bolsheviks’, fits them very well.
Here is an examination (derived from pages of The Los Angeles Times) of one of their more recent operations (Russian slaughter); complete with mass genocide, general plunder, and mass exodus. You’ll also need a copy of the Old Testament by your side; otherwise you may not believe what you read.
Wow, what would this region be like if Dick Cheney and his braintrust hadn't turned it into a sea of thriving democracies? Their foresight was spot on...
Soetoro couldn't care less.
Figuratively it is fact.
Hope and Change baby, hope and change. Obama will go down as the President who "lost" the middle east. Let them Sunnis and Shias go at it, lopping each others heads off and tossing bodies in the street. Maybe we will see a serious reduction in the quantity of these savages as they martyr each other. Once they finish killing each other one or the other will end up on top then maybe they want to "do business". Until then, arm both sides. The "best" war over there to me was always "The Iran Iraq" war. Nothing like some suicide bombers in the middle of some of those massive petrochemical complexes to change the price of oil. Or maybe the fall of the House of Saud.
Obama in command sentral taking notes from his CEO generals. Fascism at its finest.
The destruction of Libya, like that of Iraq was a warcrime and crime against humanity. Both countries were far better off under their dictators, especially Libya.
And Syria yet again.
Hope and change.
Like Secretary of State Kankles Clinton says "What difference does it make !?"
Totally insane foreign affairs policies
USG bombs ME - invites muslims to US - 9/11
email wasnt even read
he is using the wrong heading on the email...Obama wont feel the urgency to open that..that thing might get opened and read in a few weeks.
If you want him to open it first thing in the am then the heading has to be golf related to catch his eye
AWESOME NEW GOLF COURSE ABOUT TO OPEN IN HAWAII
or
CHECK OUT WHAT TIGER WOODS SENT ME
You gotta know how to get his attention
What was the point of this post anyways?
And where has MDB run off to lately?
"WAR is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives." - Major General Smedley Butler
http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html
I think we can do better than ISIS if we try.
Maybe we could get some cannibals to take over in Libya and really get some things hopping.
The whole situation is already completely out of hand. Watch them make it worse.
No, it's going as planned. Create a power vacuum. Arm ISIS rebels to fight our foes in Syria, Egypt and Iraq. Let it all go to hell so we can come back for another war.
Don't you wish they would have gone after the banks as much as they did the evil defense contractors?
Kaching! :D
MOAR TOMOHAWKS!
