Dear Dr Ledeen
I apologize to bring about a point not directly relevant to the topic but please be informed that Mullahs of Iran seem to be extremely happy to see that Mr Chuck Hagel would be the US Defence Secretary soon.

The Funeral Pyre of the Three Valkyries; the Real Obama Doctrine
February 14th, 2013 - 6:52 pm
It didn’t last more than a few hours (the White House even told journalists that the women weren’t even in the room when Obama made his decision). It was a one-off move that was likely prompted more by European (especially French) and anti-Gaddafi Arab insistence than by the arguments of the Valkyries. It was certainly not a principled world view that would become the trademark of our Nobel Prize-winning president. You may have noticed the total silence about “RtoP” when it comes to Syria, where the slaughter has been orders of magnitude greater than anything Gaddafi likely contemplated.
The proof that RtoP was just the flavor of the day, rather than a new dispensation from on high, is the destiny of Obama’s Furies. If you scan the policy-making horizon, you’ll only find a single surviving Valkyrie: Ambassador Rice. And she was most recently in the headlines when she served as Obama’s lead propagandist for the fable that the attack on our facility in Benghazi was a spontaneous demonstration provoked by an evil video, and then withdrew from consideration as Hillary’s successor at the State Department. Hillary is gone. Samantha Powers is gone. And we’re left with an administration that abandons American diplomats under fire, vetoes proposals to support the Syrian opposition, begs Iran for a nuclear deal, and turns its back on oppressed and murdered people most everywhere.
There is an Obama Doctrine, but hardly anyone wants to acknowledge it. He favors anti-American dictators, and he couldn’t care less what they do to their people. That’s the doctrine that checks out: he favored the Muslim Brotherhood over the pro-American Mubarak; the Libyan insurrectionaries over Gaddafi, who had come to terms with the United States; the Iranian tyrants who crushed a pro-democracy uprising; and Assad (who, whatever Kerry and Hegel have said, is an enemy) against a revolution that at least contained pro-American elements, now suffering from Obama’s betrayal.
Samantha Power wrote a fine book about Bill Clinton’s historic failure to stop the Rwandan genocide. Maybe she’ll enlighten us about Obama’s brief flirtation with humanitarian intervention, and his subsequent abandonment of the very idea, along with the women who were its most forceful advocates.

The reason he won’t intervene in Syria is the same reason no one else would, it’s a sectarian conflict and there’s no way out of it that isn’t likely to involve massacre. There is no side that isn’t mired in hate, fear and likely to exact revenge on entire populations.
The claim that this has to do with anti-americanism is, frankly insane. It has no root in anything other than your own dishonest will to slander.
How do you square your view with Obama’s failure to support the popular revolt in Iran?
The wind stirs softly in the pines, the birds coo sweetly in their nests. Otherwise the world, and most especially Jerry, is silent.
The wind stirs softly in the pines, the birds coo sweetly in their nests. Otherwise the world, and most especially JOSH, is silent.
My mistake. As Sir John Cleese said. “sorry everyone”.
When fighting in Iran reaches the level seen in Syria,
then there will be a revolt; What has been seen so far
is an Iranian people who make a show of protest but
wisely refrain from revolt because they know they are
too weak to fight the regime. The US cannot change that.
They could when they had a heavy military presence in Iraq, (and Iran was actively supplying killing weapons to the Shia militias.)
Obama didn’t even say any encouraging words about the Iran uprising.
Having the US or any other Christian nation on your side is not a public relations plus among heavily indocrinated Muslim populations.
It would also be an excuse for the regime to crack down.
Israelis may hope for an Iranian counter-revolution too, but they know better than to give one public support.
I’ve always wondered what kind of scholar you are. You sound like a modern 16 year old who thinks he knows how the world works because he read something on wikipedia.
At the beginning of the Syrian revolt the three @itchs were solidly on the reformer Assad’s side. After all, the Vanity Fair article proclaimed the Assads as the model of the very modern Arab benvolent despotic power couple. When his brutality became too visable to ignore it was already too late to do anything about it. But go ahead Mr. Scholar, (Scholar of what), please continue posting your talking points. They make my day.
Josh Scholar is a Charles Johnson groupie. That should explain a great many things.
Oh for God’s sake, from your time on Harry’s Place you should know better than that. I didn’t expect you to go for simplistic lies.
If people want to understand Syria, then read all of Michael J Totten’s archives. http://www.worldaffairsjournal.org/blogs/michael-j-totten
He may have a relevant book by now too.
I encourage everyone to go over to Harry’s Place and see what even those Leftwing Brits say about Josh Scholar.
What are you on about?
Also almost no one in the comment section there is left wing. Most are Obama-hating Fox News loving, Global Warming-is-a-world-wide-conspiracy wingnuts. You can’t seem to get anything out of your keyboard that’s actually true. What’s your problem?
Can Joshua tell me what he is a scholar of? I asked Josh a simple question why can’t he give a simple answer?
Josh Scholar, you are so wrong, it’s painful to read your comment. From the standpoint of an Iranian and a Mid East analyst, your argument is insane. It isn’t sectarian because Iran is involved and Iran’s regime wants to be rid of not only the Sunnis but also Christians, Jews, atheists , Secularists, and so on. So to call it sectarian is a blockhead form of minimalization, nay denial of the existence of TONS of Syrians who are attacking Asad’s regime for not only being tyrannical on the one hand, but for being fully owned and operated by the damned Russians and the bloodthirsty Shia regime in Iran, on the other.
AND if you’ve been on the moon and not paying attention to how the Iranian regime has had it out for the U.S., Europe, Israel, Muslims, Christians….ANYONE WHO IS NOT THEM ESSENTIALLY, then snap out of it and stop commenting from the peanut gallery about things you know precious little about.
Joshua:
You state some very valid points for not getting involved in Syria, but those are not the primary reasons Obama won’t get involved. His reason is: it’s much harder and bigger and more costly than Lybia was. “R2P” is for “cheap” victories that make a president look “martial,” such as taking out a pathetic, isolated old man in Pakistan long after he poses any real threat. He doesn’t need a Syria to get re-elected, so he won’t do it.
Sure.
Come on, there’s pretty much a consensus in this country that we’ve expended way too much money let alone too much blood in the Middle East.
Anyone who tries to start a new front in Syria or Iran isn’t going to be elected.
At a certain point we have to take care of our own.
” … it’s a sectarian conflict and there’s no way out of it that isn’t likely to involve massacre …” Yeah, kinda like the Holocaust. Or whatever.
P.S., FREE TIBET!!!!
Actually I agree that what the regime does is thoroughly unacceptable and brutal, and that was the case even before the civil war.
But don’t fool yourself that the reason for the brutal regime is anything more than the Alawite’s fear of Muslims and of the massacre they may endure when they lose power. And the fact that there’s a pretense that they’re some kind of Shiite – for the sake of their alliance with Iran 1) doesn’t make it true and 2) wouldn’t impress the Sunni majority even if it was.
Their unbelievably brutal attacks on Homs have been aimed toward securing an escape route, not just for the regime but for an entire population in the case that the regime falls.
Remember “you break it, you own it” and we already own more trouble in the Middle East than we can afford.
Nonsense! Where in the Constitution does it say that if you break it you own it?
Where does it say we as Americans have any responsibility to protect any of the countries in the Middle East? Bombing Libya was unconstitutional, just like going into Syria would be. It’s time to can the UN. The Republicans might want to dig out that old Constitution and give it a read every once in a while.
He may be referring to the Geneva convention.
HaHa, none of these old couch potatoes will pack a bag and go fight with the “resistance” hahaha who are probably the same people from Libya and/or Egypt. I thought we were in a war on terror; now we’re helping them overthrow governments.
Obama’s regime seems rather tyrannical, Maybe General Ledeen, will lead the charge on Washington. Ya know RtoP and all.
i’d rather occupy Naples, frankly. better weather, better food…
Sounds like a plan…charge
finally! I’ll set up HQ at Pizzeria Piscopo…
Actually there IS a way out. Open a facebook page and web site called; “Where in the world is Assad?” Anybody that spots him can put in his location for a mill and US citizenship for them and there family. Then we send a B-2 with a JSOW after him. A 1,000 Lb bomb through his bathroom window while he is doing his morning business will pretty much put an end to the random slaughter.
With a shoot on sight order out on Assad, it just might be possible to get him to ‘retire’ to the coast of France. Maybe the Mansion next to Baby Doc’s? With Saddam, Bin Laden and the Duck of Death as examples, the shoot on sight list of the USA would seem to be something to avoid being on.
The difference between what Sayd Qutb, Muslim Brotherhood member and intellectual inspiration for them, thought about America, and what Rev. Wright thought, differs only in particulars. They each despised the U.S. In his own way, Obama feels the same. He is not a man who admires the story of America. He gives lip service to it in speeches, but watch his feet not his lips.
As for Maureen Dowd, normally you have to watch Monty Python, with rockets blasting off, trains running into tunnels and tall chimneys collapsing to find psychosexual babble of that sort. The difference is that Dowd is serious about it and the Pythons laughing about it. I genuinely feel sorry for anyone so dumb as to write about semantics in such a fashion.
To add to your myth of the Obama set-up there are others. We have alraady heard the Emperor’s new clothes.
But we have also the Pied Piper who piped the youth, with his music. They followed him en masse and danced and sang to his piping. The adults dismayed at the power of the music of the Piper – a man from a foreign place with no name – over their oft beloved younguns. No longer under their influence given the enthralling music of the Piper and their desire to follow him.
The music played the children danced and sang and enthralled by the music and the man followed over the cliffs into the sea. As the Piper’s PAYBACK for earlier humiliations suffered at the hands of the citizens of the village.
The finale of the Pied Pipers music was the death of ALL the children of the hated village who followed him. With their deaths, the end of the futures of the adults of the village and as result of the LOSS of HOPE the death of the village. The “Fundamental Transformation” of the village.
The West, the World has been here before and not all that long ago. Hitler Jugend and the Young Consomols. Persons sympathetic to their “ideals” in policy echelons of all civic institutions developed programs to “deconstruct” the successful social and legal organisation of the village/USA. Developed programs that infantilise the citizens To in effect make them such Jugend that would ROCK to their music and lyrics.
In calling your triad Valkyries you give them entirely too much honour. They are merely small, little, petty women using all the manipulations of social and moral destuctiveness they’ve had active hands in to become what they are now. NOT warrior women, but person who with their “Leader/Leaders” “work secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the City”.
Obama and Rubio, if not stopped, will be to America what Hitler and Stalin were to Poland in 1939, but there will be no one to save America. The “Comprehensive Plan to Destroy America Bill” will be their version of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Just a teensy bit of hyperbole there, don’t you think? Now, Jeb Bush as Ribbentrop I can picture.
The idea that this POTUS and Co. are really concentrating on overwhelming the U.S. system first and foremost – therefore leaving no time to mess with anything else – is the most plausible to me. The Cloward-Piven monster has to be fed at an incredible rate of speed, and cover-up applied so meticulously that it leaves no time for anything else. The process of implementing a strategy of chaos has become the goal and it has advanced quickly of late, to the extent that the poor; middle-class and the rich (i.e. EVERYBODY) have been successfully targeted and the government is on full display and exhibit #1 as to how useless it really is; so that Obama can now have people depend on HIM and his commie buddies for their daily bread.
I reckon that the MB operatives in the WH are calling the shots … Muslim outreach and all that good stuff. Obama doesn’t have a plan for the ME he’s too busy campaigning (organizing and inciting) to be doing anything else. Just as Soros takes care of funding subversive groups; the czars write regulations; DOD lie, cheat and steal for voting “rights”; Reid in the “congress doesn’t work” narrative; Pelosi does the bonkersville two-step … it’s a “group” effort in all things executive with shared responsibilities and divide and conquer is the goal du jour. Why the hell should Obama call anyone about Benghazi if he’s not the one in charge … he’s an activist with a big mouth.
Wish more could see through your eyes Husky.
Valkyries? They always make me think of Macbeth, Act 1, Scene 1.
Just what I was thinking! Perfect!
The image that came to my mind is from this video, a progressive helpfully demonstrating how to “thoughtfully dialogue” with a neanderthal conservative who needs enlightenment; imagine the one on top wearing a pantsuit, yelling, “What difference does it make???!!!!” and the one on the bottom is a nasty bitter clinger taxpayer; who had the audacity to complain that he wanted to keep his wages, his health care, and his guns…

And how did that intervention in Libya work out for us? Oh, that’s right, the Libyans killed four Americans, one of them being the first US ambassador killed in over 30 years. Some friends. And is Libya better off today than it was under Gaddafi? Well, you have heavily armed militias running wild all over the country, especially in eastern Libya in Benghazi. These same militia groups not only de-stabilize the country, but they also offer guns and assistance to radical Islamic groups like al Qaeda. In short, you now have Somalia on the Mediterranean, only a few miles off the coast of southern Europe. And this is progress?
I tremble when I think what the mainstream media would have done with all of this if George W. Bush was in office. And let’s not even talk about the coverup and lies told right after the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi. That would have been front page news in The New York Times every day for months, yet you barely hear anything out of them because a liberal Democrat is in the White House. It would be funny if it wasn’t so shameful.
So don’t you get it by now, folks? No matter how badly Obama and his minions screw up, no matter how many innocent people are killed, no matter how weak we look in the Middle East, no matter how much we reduce the size of our military, no matter how much we support the radical Islamists and alienate real allies like Israel, no matter that we don’t give a fig as to whether or not Iran gets a nuclear bomb or whether North Korea explodes even MORE nuclear bombs, no matter all of this, Obama can never, ever, do any wrong in the eyes of the mainstream media. And THAT is why fewer and fewer people trust them these days and why newspapers (and rightfully so) are dying by the dozens all over the country. It is a crime what this administration is getting away with. But I have a little faith that the truth will eventually come out on at least some things, like Benghazi. Maybe.
I’m beginning to wonder if people are interested truth.
What’s important is to get some perspective. The outing of Valerie Plame warranted a Special Prosecutor. Someone at the White House had to be perp-walked even if it took 3 years. Rove, Cheney and even Bush would be in prison now if there was any justice in this world.
Now stop “politicizing” Benghazi, tea-baggers!
you mean Armitage. he’s the guilty party regarding Plame.
I can’t be sure, but I hope you’re being sarcastic. Bush is no longer president, Valerie Plame got nothing but attention and unwarranted sympathy from the media but people died in Benghazi.
You can’t be serious.
For G-d’s sake “Chuck,” Ledeen is dead serious! Read some history on the Plame affair other than Leftist rags (which mostly includes the MSM, sigh).
DICK Armitage admitted — let me repeat that for you — A-D-M-I-T-T-E-D to “outing” Plame to Novak. You can find CNN articles to that effect, and even the Liberal “Slate” has articles on it, one with the following quote:
As most of us have long suspected, the man who told Novak about Valerie Plame was Richard Armitage, Colin Powell’s deputy at the State Department…
The link at:
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/fighting_words/2006/08/plame_out.html
Nevertheless, the MSM and “folks” such as yourself concocted a “narrative” which, for self-serving reasons still besmirches the very honorable (by all accounts) Libby. One may conclude that Libby is a good man for the simple reason that that anti-Christ of Sagacity and Fair Play, Mo Dowd, repeatedly kicked the man when he was down.
Finally, to drive the entire thing home, a quote from the same Slate article:
What does emerge from Hubris is further confirmation of what we knew all along: the extraordinary venom of the interdepartmental rivalry that has characterized this administration. In particular, the bureaucracy at the State Department and the CIA appear to have used the indiscretion of Armitage to revenge themselves on the “neoconservatives” who had been advocating the removal of Saddam Hussein. Armitage identified himself to Colin Powell as Novak’s source before the Fitzgerald inquiry had even been set on foot. The whole thing could—and should—have ended right there.
He was responding to Dr Bukk, not Michael Ledeen.
Mr Ledeen, you left a Valkyrie out: Valerie Jarrett.
Obama won’t go to the men’s room without consulting her.
The R2P doctrine has a lot of history. It began as a UN resolution back in 2005 or so.
The Libyan civil led to a specific UN resolution. The USA arguably went beyond that resolution (which was to protect civilians) and aimed a Qadaffi’s strategic assets and Qadaffi himself. The reason given at the time was that Qadaffi himself was a weapon that imperiled the civilians.
Anyway, the episode shows, once again, how simplistic doctrines lead to all kinds of secondary and tertiary consequences.
I thought it was earlier, around 2000.
I thought it was even earlier than that. Really gaining momentum in the 90s.
My impression of Obama’s mindset has been that foreign policy questions and issues are generally a nuisance to him – forcing him to turn his attention away from what matters most – his project to fundamentally transform the United States of America.
He appears to be willing to acknowledge foreign policy events that align with his vision for America, but aside from that events, threats, atrocities, strategic opportunities, etc are simply out of scope for his domestic transformation project.
So…still searching for a bright line to decide on how the U.S. of A. reacts in the world? It is no longer surprising to me that neither side of the argument refers back to the CONSTITUTION. Should we intervene in any conflict when neither side will support the First Amendment? No. They are enemies of freedom. If a regime, Mubarak or Morsi, refuses to grant their people the Second Amendment, they are enemies of the people. Quit whining about barbarians and their rules and quit supporting them. NO VISAS, NO AID, (only fair trade) with the enemies of freedom.
When the communists said that we’d sell them the rope that they’d hang us with I seriously doubt in their most fantastical dreams that they ever thought it would be front line fighters like the F-16.
The Obama doctrine is to do nothing and then either a) come out on the side of the victor, or b1) spin like a top if anything goes wrong or b2) ignore whatever goes wrong and let Pravda cover it up.
The only reason the Fraud did anything at all about Libya is because there was no immediate risk to lobbing some bombs at people incapable of retaliating (i.e., the same tactic as using Drones to unilaterally kill people, which is the polar opposite of what supposedly peace-loving leftists have advocated for 50 years, but let’s not quibble about details when the boy king is involved). When something went wrong later, Benghazi, Doctrine B2 was invoked.
he spiked the ball with Osama and dropped the ball on Bengazi. no one is in charge when it is time to accept the responsibility, but GWB is to far removed to take the blame. his policy is if it ‘s good he takes the credit, if it’s bad blame it on GWB. everything bad is now the Republicans fault because he wanted so much and they won’t give it to him.
I agree — Obama demonstrates greater hatred for Republicans than he does for Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood. It’s twisted — all Obama’s “friends” despise traditional American values, and they support the enemies of America. Obama treats enemies as “friends”, allies as foes. That has been Obama’s one consistent approach which, in an Obama world, is about the only thing that is “reliable” — shaft friends and stick-up for enemies of America.
Nothing twisted about it at all. Obama’s enemies are the same as his father’s – the West. All enemies of the Judeo-Christian West and of western civilization are Obama’s friends.
When a president swears an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” then behaves in a manner which is inimical to that oath, then, yes, it’s twisted.
- When shall we three meet again
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
- When the hurlyburly’s done,
When the battle’s lost and won.
Do all things come in threes?
Three little pigs? Begin, endure, end?
And, exactly how many divisions DOES the Islamic “pope” have?
It’s not just that Iran is the center of the trouble-making by radical Islamists, but that the faux religion of Islam, itself, is, in all its worldwide inglorious metastasizing. Indeed, in the big three, of which all appearance is a form—begin-endure-end—Islam = end = annihilate = destroy.
There is quite a parallel between the process of eating, for an individual, and that of the societal process of “eating” or “digesting” the permeating spread of individual Muslims.
The body takes in bits and pieces of chemical globs, meant to provide energy and replace ending = dying= worn out parts. To combat any “enemies” sucked down, it has an immune system, in effect an army of other chemical globs, meant to surround and kill and emit the dirty bastards.
In the increasingly stupid and stupefied West, open eyes when in public, or even before one’s own mirror, can see the results of this losing battle—so much “bad” intake, and so little “good”! The natural bodily defenses are quite overwhelmed, so the incoming bad guys can’t be eliminated as a whole, resulting in the invasion of the bodily cells—one by one—by toxins and fat.
Then there’s the worldly consumption of Islamic “food”, to wit one individual at a time, who has been programmed in that “faith”, whether in Europe, America, Africa—you name it. They likewise are accepted into societal “cells”, and are they ever toxic, with a mission to either take over the body, or kill it!
And, here’s the proof of the suicidal stupidity of the West—they are essentially baby machines, right in the midst of Western society, and the countries that admit them even know this.
Imagine a human body that ate too much fat, and added a fat molecule to each cell. And, then, each one of those fat molecules was able to produce MORE fat molecules, by themselves “eating” the healthier parts of the cell.
Islam is THE enemy within, and as for the ruling class of pinheads currently showing their own suicidal desires, such as the epitome of these people, Obama, who was chosen by the majority of voting pinheads—well, maybe Barry McGuire was just 50 years early, when he sang his 1965 hit, “Eve of Destruction”.
Oh, wait!
He had it right. Back then, it was just the EVE—destruction was just about to begin. NOW—we are in the “It’s morning in Destruction”, and Islam = destruction is merely producing the results it was born for.
Be happy.
For 2 1/2 years I had an apartment in a New York borough and saw every day what you describe. “Impoverished” Green card parents bring family to US. Fellow immigrees explain how to game system – low W-2 wages is ticket to $30,000 of free food, medical care, cell phone, plus subsidized. apt, etc.
Their teenagers comply with arranged marriages from parents’ country of origin (first cousin marriages are A-OK). Abracadabra. The new family is impoverished – what 18-yr old can support a new wife and four children in seven years? Impoverished new family gets $30,000 free food, etc. Imported spouse has no English. Children grow up without English as cradle language. Family watches non-English cable channels or computer video from foreign web sites. Children adopt culture of parents & fellow foreign immigrees plus religious authorities. Exposed to English language & US culture in public school, often as ESL students.
US taxpayers pays for groceries, medical care, hospital,apt subsidy, etc. plus $1,000 per child IRS cash rebate. “Men” in coffee shops most of the week, careful to keep W-2 wages low enough to keep the welfare gravy train going.
Insantiy by the west. Insanity.
Now, apply the above system to the issue of “Immigration Reform”. Give every illegal a green card, regardless of English skill and prior schooling, add official access to welfare, plus allow each individual to sponsor “family reunification” of a half dozen of their relatives not in the US yet. Plus allow future anchor babies to continue to get US citizenship for future amnesties.
Why not put a million bill boards all over the globe: Attention: impoverished foreign women: Have your boyfriend sneak into the US and pay the cartels the fee to smuggle you in too! Come to the US and start a family of anchor baby US citizens. ALL FREE GROCERIES, MEDICAL CARE, FREE APT. Use your boyfriend’s “under the table” cash wages to purchase ineligibles with food stamps like disposable diapers, pay for restaurant meals, and, of course, a few other amenities. Don’t need auto insurance, use the money for chrome trim on the new truck. US taxpayers are suckers: They’ll pay the costs to raise the kids from birth to adulthood. Plus give them affirmative action. Great deal!
Hillary Clinton is only out of this administration, like a major player put on the bench to catch her breath during the third quarter, only to come back and win the game in the end. So she’s not out, only gathering resources for a run at the presidency in four years. Don’t call her out, unless, of course you can get her convicted of something (fat chance).
The problem with the Big Lie that is spawned for purely tactical reasons is that after a while your own followers actually begin to believe it. The idea that western colonialism and capitalism were at the root of all the world’s ills was a creation of the USSR that was intended to sap the will of the western powers to oppose them and curry favor with the kleptocracies that ran most of the Third World, as they could lay the blame for their own disfunctionality on the West. Those in the know never really believed it. It was a propaganda tool, nothing more.
But now the lie persists even when the reason for spreading it has ceased to exist. Obama and most of the Left still believe it. All you have to do is remove Western influences and power from the world stage and the flowers will bloom and the world will become a paradise. Strangely enough it just isn’t working out that way.
I think Obama and his ilk are truly confused by the state of world affairs. Things just aren’t working like their faith/ideology assured them it would, and they haven’t a clue as to what to do about it except to increase the dosage of the same medicine that is currently poisoning the patient.
I cannot repress a laugh at the image of the three Walkyries while at the same time witnessing uneasily the painful induction of Grand Token Hagel and Grand Token Brennan in the firmament of King Caboose the first. This man has never taken his duty to protect and defend the US constitution seriously because nobody could do that and at the same time bask in the false glory of the redemptor-in-chief of America-the-devil. This man has made his choice, and for that he was himself chosen, twice!
Better for the rest of us to find some worthy pursuit in the meantime. As for Mama Clinton, she is busy trying to reach escape velocity from all this awful spectacle, hoping to re-surge unscathed as the savior of 2016. Keep your Wagner music. You are going to need it!
“Better for the rest of us to find some worthy pursuit in the meantime”.
For myself, I’m tending my garden …
HIllary captured the Obama Foreign Doctrine perfectly: “What difference does it make?” We have reached the apogee of Western postmodernism. And it all looks pretty much like what you would expect it to: A study in gray.
…pretty much shades of gray, and flat, flattened, without relief. “Relief” –another one of those marvelous English words with two main meanings that are so far apart that they join on the far side.
I believe all these goddesses are honored and understand the Valkynies of old as goddesses in their own worlds and time.
There I was on the sands of the sea and the three Rhine maidens came to me this summer. Why were they they you may ask? To show me the boundry between the 6th and 8th heaven . No man can see them and not have a slight case of lust no matter how much past virture he has but they protect me from this I see for the future mision from God .
Because it is in the 11 heaven north of the 6th and 8th the great Ring of Power has come down and resides at the bottom of the great ocean and this coming new season they will bring this to me after the translation takes place when the three faithful saints trasnslate into the three Rhine maidens in King solomon’s temple I call the 11 heaven then fiest I bring the ring to the 1st heaven north of the 11th. Then back to the 11th. Next they meet me at the boundry of the 6th and the 8th and I bring the ring to the 7th heaven at the lake there and then back for them to bring to King Solomon’s temple and another time from the 6th and 8th the three Rhine maidens give me the ring of great power to bring to the 9th heaven and I bring back to them. Next the same takes place for the 2nd heaven and the little holy river before the Holy Mary mother of God sanctuary I bring this ring of power which is next to the 5th angel sanctuary
Last but not least Saint Thersa of avilla , Saint Hildeergard and Saint Cathrine of Siena bring me the Ring from the 11 heaven King Solomon’s themple to be brought to the 12th heaven salt sea.
Then I get to chose to bring the Ring of great power to the other earth heavens that have no sea or nor rivers on my Island
All this I do when I do my business translating all 13 heavens to the White Mountains and when the Ring of Great power comes there who know? and then it must be brought to the Great City 12 heaven and by then I may understand the 13 heaven instead of calling this one the folly heaven few will doubt by then , God willing how heaven has come down to the earth
Yikes! I busy beaver
Notice I leave out the 10th heaven that also has a salt sea with the Island out in the sea I call the Holy Pope of Rome sanctuary . The 10th heaven has the Lilith sanctuary and I still do not trust her. Perhaps when I make peace with the animals in the white Mountains this summer, God willing, like Saint Francis I may trust her,God Willing , after that if I can see a Roman Catholic saint face instead of seduction
The ongoing Syrian conflict is a proxy Sunni/Shia war. The Shia Alawite rulers are being supported by Shia Iran while the Sunni insurgents are being supported by Sunni Saudi Arabia. The Sunni/Shia conflict is as old as Islam and makes a mockery of Muslims claims to have 1.5 Billion followers as each considers the other to be APOSTATES. But hush don’t tell the KAFIRS lets just pretend we are all one happy clappy united Muslim family. Western Politicians,Left Wing moonbats and the Lame Stream EneMedia are so naive and gullible they will fall for it after all they fell for the ‘Religion of Peace ‘ BS.
Look into your own palantir and see what you should see.Do you really want to unite the Shia with the Sunni for Islam or do you want something to just complain about. Know what the real enemy is looking for than perhaps you make peace with your enemies before it is latter than you think
But keep atheist away from palantir. Drive him wacko and he begin to behave like North korea beloved almighty appearing ruler

Does writing gibberish come naturally to you ‘waxwing01′ or do you have to work at it?
“The Sunni/Shia conflict is as old as Islam and makes a mockery of Muslims claims to have 1.5 Billion ….”
In the future Muslims will focus on the personal relationship with God just like Abraham did and as John Calvin did. So what he was thrown in the Jesus hell for 500+ years. Peering in to the Jesus hell to me he looks like he’s made lemonaide out of lemons.
And World war 2 is over and Christians are not murdering Christians as they do a years ago. Rather then seeing Shia unite with Sunni for religious reasons I prefer to see them get on the same page to war with the coming eye of the greaterSauron and here in USA believe you me I have much evidence the eye and ear of the greater Sauron is getting great invasion reach as any person in the three Abraham faiths EXPECT with the murder of 55 million babies in mommies tender tummy giving this “Sauron” a legal license to do his business in his great hunt for…

I just see how John Calvin’s guardian angel is there visting him again give him a teaspoon of sugar to sweeten up his drink . Behold! She now pukering up and gives him a kiss on the cheek
I good witness to progress in John Calvin’s Jesus hell
The ooze from the US through the Oval Office is pathogenic, and frankly quarantine seems to be the only cure that works.
This is why I have less and less trust in the US in doing the right thing for the right reasons.
Be prepared to see increased holdings of gold, and less US dollars held, outside of the US.
I think the United States should establish a more robust naval presence in Southeast Asia and also with some Middle Eastern countries. and strengthen its ties with her Asian regional allies, in particular the Republic of S.Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Philippines and reach out to other regional powers in Pacific and Latin America like Indonesia and Malaysia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Suriname and Guyana as well as Canada and South Africa. America’s future vital interests are there. For example these countries “the Phillipines, El Salvador, Guatemala, Italy, Peru and even Vietnam” are considered to be so ravaged and raped by USA, though, most of their people like Americans.
In countries “the Europeans” of those who operate on the assumption of American malignancy that is not the least of, which is jealousy over America’s Great wealth, no doubt that the overwhelming majority of them abhors America’s policies, Israel and the Jews. for instance, I saw this disgusting thing here in Poland. Recently, the polls has shown that most of American Europeans supported Obama’s policies during the presidential elections.
Indeed is NOT in the interest of the US to support European unification. it is NOT in the US interest Europe being stable or any other powerful state on the planet, especially those who seeking overtaking the United States of America as Global Superpower. They should be collapsed…let them be thrown into chaos and to fall apart “economically and geographically!”
I would greatly love to see much closer relations between the historic allies “the UK and the USA”, as well as Australia and New Zealand. In fact they have roots that go deep. The Great Britain must have the closer ties to the USA and Israel than to Europe.
Eventually, the USA should back to the Bush doctrine!?

Well, yes the 1990s gave many people the idea that something had to be done to allow for force to be used in cases of dire humanitarian need. Specifically, the 1994 Rwanda genocide. There were conferences, seminars, workshops, working groups, etc. (I think Samantha Powers and Susan Rice was at a number of these actually), and, yes, by about 2000, there was some consensus on the broad outlines and in 2005 or so, the UNSC adopted fairly flexible principles on R2P. This was, of course, a basis for endless attacks on the Bush administration for not preventing the Darfur massacres but not a peep on the massacres of Christians by Moslems in Iraq or on Hindus by Moslems in Pakistan or for that matter the ethnic cleansing of Shia from parts of Pakistan or the Sunni from parts of Iran or the ‘post conflict’ ethnic cleansing of tribes and clans thought to be pro Qaddaffi by tribes that were anti Qaddaffi. Obviously, the post Qaddaffi situation has left a lot of people (maybe even Susan Rice, Samantha Powers) wondering about limits of intervention and about methods of intervention, however, the various resolutions adopted by the UN are unlikely to be changed.
The ideal Lady with the perfect doctrine of great ideas and principles for a great country, the Iron Lady of the Great America “the late Ms. Jeane J Kirkpatrick.” She really was a great woman. may her soul rest in Peace!
Its possible to see events in the middle east as following a desirable pattern.
Deposing Assad in Syria could be viewed as the logical precursor to a clandestine war in Iran. All without American or Israeli fingerprints blatantly visible.
