The wise have eyes in their heads,
while the fool walks in the darkness;
but I came to realize
that the same fate overtakes them both.

Gunmen shot dead 11 people, mostly Christians, near a town in central Syria on Saturday, state media and activists said, an attack described by a local resident as aimed at members of the religious minority.
ReplyDeleteThe resident, citing witnesses, told The Associated Press that the gunmen randomly opened fire on roadside restaurants in a drive-by shooting outside Ein al-Ajouz as Christians were celebrating a feast day. He spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.
The state-run SANA news agency described the attack as a "massacre" and said women and children were among the dead.

Despite my love for vegetables, there is no way I'll ever be willing to give up meat. Pork (even though I'm Jewish) is amazing slowly cooked and shredded, and please don't forget bacon. Chicken is good too, but I guess it's poultry. And then there's beef. Medium rare juicy burgers with melted cheese, chipotle mayonnaise and perfectly ripe avocados. Beef fajitas with onions and peppers. Medium rare steak with sauteed mushrooms and onions. I even love meatloaf!

WASHINGTON - A resurgence of violence and a renewed threat from al-Qaida have recently revived flagging U.S. interest in Iraq, officials said Friday as Baghdad asked for new help to fight extremists less than two years after it forced American troops to withdraw.
ReplyDeleteFaced with security crises across the Mideast, North Africa and Asia, the White House largely has turned its attention away from Iraq since U.S. forces left in 2011. But the country has been hit with deadly bombings at a rate reminiscent of Iraq's darkest days, stoking new fears of a civil war. More than 1,000 Iraqis were killed in terror-related attacks in July, the deadliest month since 2008.
The violence has spurred Baghdad to seek new U.S. aid to curb the threat, said Iraqi Foreign Minister Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari. He said a U.S. assistance package could include a limited number of advisers, intelligence analysis and surveillance assets - including lethal drones.

“I don’t know when the word fashion came into being, but it was an evil day.”
ReplyDeleteThese words came from an American fashion designer working at the top of her game. Elizabeth Hawes wrote the line in her bestselling book Fashion Is Spinach published in 1938. The full 337 pages are an ongoing smack-down of fashion, fashion designers and, mostly, the fashion industry Elisabeth Hawes blamed for creating a planet of fashion victims. “Fashion is a parasite on style”, “Fashion is that horrid little man with an evil eye, that tells you last winter’s coat may be in perfect condition, but you can’t wear it because it has a belt”, “Fashion gets up those perfectly ghastly ideas, such as accessories should match…” And so on and so on until briskly closing the book with six finite capital letters in bold print: I SAY TO HELL WITH IT.

Don’t Know Much About Geography
ReplyDeleteIn the case of geography, Harvard Law School graduate Barack Obama recently lectured, “If we don’t deepen our ports all along the Gulf — places like Charleston, South Carolina; or Savannah, Georgia; or Jacksonville, Florida . . . ” The problem is that all the examples he cited are cities on the East Coast, not the Gulf of Mexico. If Obama does not know where these ports are, how can he deepen them?
ReplyDeleteObama’s geographical confusion has become habitual. He once claimed that he had been to all “57 states.” He also assumed that Kentucky was closer to Arkansas than it was to his adjacent home state of Illinois.
In reference to the Falkland Islands, President Obama called them the Maldives — islands southwest of India — apparently in a botched effort to use the Argentine-preferred “Malvinas.” The two island groups may sound somewhat alike, but they are continents apart. Again, without basic geographical knowledge, the president’s commentary on the Falklands is rendered superficial.
When in the state of Hawaii, Obama announced that he was in “Asia.” He lamented that the U.S. Army’s Arabic-language translators assigned to Iraq could better be used in Afghanistan, failing to recognize that Arabic isn’t the language of Afghanistan. And he also apparently thought Austrians speak a language other than German.
typical American!
ReplyDeleteIt’s hard to get our minds around the dimensions of the slaughter underway in the Middle East and Africa, and harder still to see that the battlefields of Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Nigeria and Mali are pieces in a global war in which we are targeted. For the most part, the deep thinkers zero in on the single battlefields. What if anything should we do about the big fight in Egypt? Should we assist the Syrian opposition? What to do in Lebanon or Jordan? Should we respond positively to the Iraqi government’s request for security assistance? Is anyone thinking hard about Tunisia, likely to be the scene of the next explosions?

ReplyDeleteGeopolitical amnesia
ReplyDeleteThe “Big Cairo Fire” destroyed 30 banks and major companies, 13 hotels, 310 stores, 92 bars, 40 movie theaters, eight automobile showrooms. Not last week but 61 years ago. And the arsonist was the same -- the Muslim Brotherhood.
http://www.upi.com/Top_News/Analysis/de-Borchgrave/2013/08/19/Commentary-Geopolitical-amnesia/UPI-79351376885700/
More surprising is that the Muslim Brotherhood's Big Cairo fire circa 1952, didn't rate a mention in all the background stories about the current Cairo fires -- done by the same organization that is now cast as the misunderstood innocents who won an election fair and square only to be deprived of the spoils by a supreme commander, Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
Sisi was born in 1954, two years after Black Saturday in Cairo. But he knows that a Muslim Brotherhood government would be neither democratic nor enlightened. He has told visitors the Brotherhood would set Egypt back to the dark ages. The business community agrees.
Sisi also knows it was the Muslim Brotherhood upheaval in January 1952 that triggered seven months later the Free Officers military coup July 23 led by Gamal Abdel Nasser who abolished a totally corrupt monarchy and dispatched King Farouk on his yacht to exile on the French Riviera. And when Nasser died of heart disease Sept. 13, 1970, his deputy Anwar Sadat became president until assassins (Brotherhooders) gunned him down Oct. 6, 1981.
Sadat's successor, President Hosni Mubarak, was arrested in 2011, after almost 30 years in power. The Muslim Brotherhood was part of the group of Islamist extremists that advocated a trial -- and the death sentence. Mubarak may soon be free.

ReplyDeleteIn a video of Hosni Mubarak when he was still Egypt’s president, the strategies of which he accuses the Muslim Brotherhood have come to pass. What follows are Mubarak’s words from a conference in Egypt (date unknown; author’s translation):
ReplyDeleteSo they [Brotherhood and affiliates] took advantage of the economic situation by handing out money, to one man 100 Egyptian pounds, or about $30 dollars, [saying,] "Here take this bag of glycerin and throw it here," or do this or that--to create a state of instability in Egypt. And these groups--don't ever believe that they want democracy or anything like that. They are exploiting democracy in order to eliminate democracy. And if they ever do govern, it will be an ugly dictatorship. …. Once a foreigner [likely a Westerner] told me, "Well, if that's the case, why don't you let them form parties?" I told him, "they'd attack each other." He said, "So let them attack each other." I came to understand that by "attack each other" he thought I meant through dialogue. For years we've been trying to dialogue with them, and still are. If the dialogue is limited to words, fine. But when the dialogue goes from words to bullets and bombs… [Mubarak shakes his head, and then gives anecdotes of Egyptian police and security being killed by Brotherhood and affiliates, including how 104 policemen were killed in 1981, and how one officer was shot by them trying to save a boy's life.] The point is, we don't like bloodshed, neither our soldiers nor our officers. But when I see that you're firing at me, trying to kill me--well, I have to defend myself! Then the international news agencies go to these [Islamist] groups for information, and they tell them, "they're killing us, they're killing us!" Well, don't you [news agencies] see them killing the police?! I swear to you, not one of the police wants to kill them--not one of us. Then they say, "So Mr. President, you gave orders to the police to open fire indiscriminately?"--I cannot give such an order, at all. It contradicts the law. I could at one point be judged [for it].

ReplyDeleteThe “Big Cairo Fire” destroyed 30 banks and
major companies, 13 hotels, 310 stores, 92 bars, 40 movie theaters, eight automobile showrooms. Not last week but 61 years ago. And the arsonist was the same -- the Muslim Brotherhood.

The state department probably told the MB about their little gun-running operation on top of it. The currency of gratitude is an unstable currency at best. The only thing they respect is violence and force. With the right leadership (if we could ever find it), this country can mong some serious war. No shortage of technology or capable warriors. When we want to be, we can be the scariest MF'ers on this planet. We just can't solve the leadership problem.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that I'm a good argument for that finding.

Democracy, Schmemocracy. It’s irrelevant to the people who manage the country, a joke to the people who own it. A local example, of course, is New York’s City Council, led by Christine Quinn, abolishing mayoral term limits after they were set by a voter referendum—the most unambiguous expression of the citizens’ wishes in a democracy (unless the ballot question is constructed by Californian Jesuits). What I’m not certain about is whether I support, believe in, advocate, adhere to, “democracy,” if the outcome is or might be something very evil.
