Woo Hoo ! !
Neck and neck with our ally Israel...
it appears the U.S.A. -- *biiiggg chest puff* -- is indeed Number One!* ... at targeted killings assassinations today.
Our own citizens now too.
Nevermind this, "Bring 'em in Alive, Afford 'em a Trial" template nonsense of yesteryear. (And don't tell me we've no choice but to return to a higher-tech Wild West code in the absence of something better. Can't fool me!)
With some even calling for less citizen influence in our government today, why not let our "We Think We're the Wisest Minds... Nevermind our Record, We Paid for the Paper Credentials to Show Ya" youthful mentality carryon over to military strength?
Nevermind that other countries will better copy our actions and technologies tomorrow. Damn it -- beat that chest: We ARE (currently anyway) Number ONE!
(feel all better now?
but... will you remember this tomorrow?
Enough of a political bump from the man who seems to be choosing/preferencing violent action, over diplomatic skills* to lead his foreign policy triumphs?)
* If I had told you, 3 short years ago,
that President Barack Hussein Obama would be denying the peaceful request of the Palestinian people coming to New York and asking for a two-party solution -- especially in light of all the relatively non-violent civil adjustments being earned and undertaken in surrounding Arab countries -- would you have betted the President would have been more "captured" by lobbying foreign interests, than to step up to the platefor his unique time in the spotlight, -- as only a man with his promised "come together" skills with his personal traits and unbringing might have done so -- to at least grasp at the golden ring that appears to be within grasp at the closest length this go around*, or would you have laughed in my face?
"Verbally approve? Is that all it would take? Why this man -- look at the newfound promise of him, we've simply never had that well-balanced "walk a mile in anothers' shoes" perspective in the Highest Office before... He'd NEVER back away from a diplomatic "fight" like that; this is where he absolutely shines at bringing diverse constituents together? Don't you know anything of his scholastic/career successes? It's a unique path, surely, but who says what he's bringing to the table isn't exactly what's needed at this time in the early 21st Century to bring about peace, now that we're all drearied by endless war..."
You'd have laughed at me.
Come on... admit it.
Instead... we'll have to go with the "We've Got to Fulfill the Book..." promises of the other party, and perhaps wisely -- looking forward with good eyes --hope that enough of those in that camp really aren't promise keepers too...
I'm kinda amazed that enough haven't yet tired of the spilling of blood, the ineffective chest-thumping killings followed by no real resolution, that we continue on down this path. Funny, but down deep, in his freer thinking moments?
I wonder if our young President and his wife wish they might have been freer to act, decide things differently -- shine on uniquely -- these days too.
* Actually, I suspect Israel leads us in this killing game, but you know how secretive/manipulative they always try to be in admitting these things...
