Only crippling sanctions could a peaceful Pentagon make.

For the record, I will not be writing notes while unarmed in a gun fight. Especially not ones consistent with police state propaganda. Nor will I beat, torture, and/or asphyxiate myself to death in my cell. Additionally, I will also not be shooting myself in the head twice...well, or once.

The video has chants of Allah Akbar from witnesses --i.e., it's a better PR video for GWoT than it could have produced (if it didn't).

No comment on deserts, but I don't believe captured US soldiers are treated harshly by bona fide Muslims. 'spect we tend to project that kind of thing.

Lol! Great choice of Kerry weaselspeak... if you don't, it'll be just one mo of yo grave errors...I don't think you wanna error like that... oh, you didn't just decide to err some more like you do so often... Pure locker room trash talk.

I take it Kerry thinks there are people listening to him rather than e.g. looking at what's being done. If you druel and pick your nose, he shur sounds like that Ass-ad has a record for misapprehending the situation. That's how come he sez so twice.

Well, so if I want to detain you, I suppose I could tear a page out... or break a tail-light if I want to give you a ticket... what GWoT-sucker's gonna believe you?

I remember going through a foreign customs for the first time. Advice was if they ask you what's-this, tell 'em it's a 'gift,' or a 'personal possession.' ...my advisers then rethought the 'gift' bit...someone might interpret that as bribing him. I don't think I got asked about anything at all. 'spect that kind of nosiness is just an USraeli thing.

Presumably, if some high profile event ostensibly involves whacking people with a herring, then TSA will also be profoundly interested in fishpapers...

Or the 'falling-out' was for public consumption. I gather you can't really be a 'leader' in M.E. unless you bash Israel in some way; also gather Israel's comfortable with that. Obviously, the rhetoric is useful to her on occasion...just as the perceived distance was to Erdogan.

My car won't start again. Damn Syrians.

"blamed on “Marxist terrorists” " Sibel Edmonds has had something to say about that imputation. www.corbettreport.com/interview-655-sibel-edmonds... (see also previous episodes on Gladio linked there).

It might have confused some why the Jewish lobby went after Stephen Hawking in a way that would tend to discredit them (I hear some were mocking his disability). The above would seem to show the kind of influence that could clear up that confusion. It's got reason to believe it's 'almighty' in some way. That it can chop opponents out of the dialogue; limiting accurate perception of them where it counts. Kourosh Ziabari http://kouroshziabari.com/ long ago noticed there was little coverage of Iran's art and science in the US --it was instead all about making Iran appear evil/crazy. If their power increases enough, your mom, too, could become the-new-Hitler.

Interesting he says this after it's outed who's bribing him --less to lose after the loss of ambiguity? I guess he's also cozy with (effectively) admitting he needs foreigners for security? Months ago, there was also the story of demolishing bases there since Afghan's ~'wouldn't know what to do with them.' Might ask if that amounted to some leverage: think of wanton destruction of the most solid buildings around you and ask what you'd be willing to accept to stop it.

I've had trouble seeing Karzai as corrupt; he seems to take his peoples' side appropriately enough when the opportunity arises. ...was I fooled? In any case, this is a net loss for Americans. Now they've got a foot-hold for sucking us dry with 9 "enduring" money pits with which to operate on Russia and the Caucasus http://www.corbettreport.com/interview-655-sibel-... .
