				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Indeed, I&#8217;m not sure about you but I&#8217;m getting very tired of the same old excuse from the Democrats and the Obama Administration; why do they keep telling us that they didn&#8217;t create this financial fiasco, and economic crisis, that they inherited it? The reality is that the challenges we face as a nation were not created in-part by one of our political parties, rather both parties combined.<span id="more-7180"></span></p>
<p>In fact, I&#8217;d go so far as to say that the reason we are in this predicament is from all the backdoor deals going on behind the scenes with the politicians trading off their honor and integrity, and what they stood for to make deals with things they don&#8217;t believe in. So the reality is that Democrats are at fault as much as the Republicans, and it&#8217;s time they own up to the responsibility of the dismal job they&#8217;ve been doing, and a calamity they have created.</p>
<p>Not long ago, I was at a coffee shop and I was talking to an individual who is a staunch conservative and he went on a rant and said; &#8220;You told the American People, that you and your team could fix it, oh, but now, now you can&#8217;t, so you keep on blaming the last Administration, well, how much longer are we going to have to listen to this garbage?&#8221;</p>
<p>Obviously, he was facetiously talking to President Obama, as if he was a TV news correspondent or political pundit sending a question to the president, or as if I or someone else at the coffee shop that day was suddenly the president and he was talking to them or to me?</p>
<p>But, he didn&#8217;t stop there, next he said; &#8220;Similarly you told us you could fix health care, but instead of fixing it you piled on more baloney on a &#8220;wish sandwich&#8221; or is it Vegemite &#8211; believe me when I tell you there&#8217;s no such thing as a free lunch.&#8221;</p>
<p>And that quite frankly is how a good many Americans feel as they hear President Obama continue to blame the last Administration, rather than fixing the problem like he promised he would. No wonder America is so upset, please consider all this.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If China really wants to someday be a global superpower and someday soon they definitely will become just that. It certainly will not be more than a couple of decades away. Today, they wished to be recognized in the rest of the world as one of its leading nations. However to do this, at some point it has to considering the resources it needs, and consider the human rights issues which are caused by its actions. After all, today the US and other first world nations are held to that standard.<span id="more-7177"></span></p>
<p>We have been watching the Chinese government go on a scavenger hunt around the world seeking resources, mostly oil. They need resources to continue to grow. In doing this they have made pacts and trade deals with some questionable regimes and some rather rogue nation-states. China feels they have no choice, they have to get the resources as their civilization depends on it.</p>
<p>Many of these countries they have dealt with have leaders which are involved in questionable human rights issues, but China does what&#8217;s best for itself, often, without regard to the damage it does in propping up and funding rogue nations and Machiavellian dictatorship-like regimes for instance in Africa.</p>
<p>Now that the Global Warming International Convention is going on in Copenhagen, China will be asked to commit to reducing its carbon footprint, and reducing its pollution signature, which is probably a good thing. But how much will it be able to comply, with such strict standards without severely impacting its growth at a time when it is dealing with its economic challenges like much of the rest of the world?</p>
<p>Not long ago a University Research study showed that nearly 25% of all the air pollution in California is that which comes from China. That&#8217;s pretty scary because they are half way around the world and across the entire Pacific Ocean. So it&#8217;s getting to be serious, and something must be done. But on the issue of human rights, it&#8217;s even more serious.</p>
<p>The question the world should be asking China; is will they commit to Human rights stipulations with the trading pacts they make around the world? So far, the answer is no, and China has its own human rights issues which it is working trough at home and perhaps it doesn&#8217;t seem this is such a big deal to them, however, the rest of the free world and first world nations do care. And the Chinese are joining the ranks and so, they will indeed have to move forward with these challenges like all large nations and super powers, including the US.</p>
<p>China will soon be the second largest economy in the world by GDP, and as the world continues to trade with China, and in Copenhagen, there is no doubt they wish to put stipulations on Chinese goods tied to  pollution of the air for trade with the EU. In the future water and human rights will become trade issues as well. Please consider all this.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Presidents always make lots of pre-election promises to us. For instance our current leader promised that he knew how to deal with foreign governments, and that the Bush Administration had put the United States in more danger, due to the so-called unilateral decisions to go into Iraq, without all of the world&#8217;s consent. Barrack promised us that the Obama Administration would put America on the path to peace and prosperity the world over. In fact, some of his speeches were so eloquent &#8211; I wish you would have had a video tape to watch them now. Why you ask? Let me explain.<span id="more-7169"></span></p>
<p>Nearly everything that the Obama Administration&#8217;s foreign-policy actions have done, have made the United States look weak and vulnerable, and our enemies are ready to test us and attack. You may not know this but the Revolutionary Guard is now running Iranian Naval Forces in the Straits of Hormuz. And the Iranian President is on a whirlwind tour gathering allies and increasing ties with Russia, China, Brazil, Venezuela, and now Bolivia, thus, also propping up anti-US ALBA in Latin America.</p>
<p>This is a clear indication that any economic sanctions are nothing more than a joke, because Iran has plenty of trading partners that are willing to look the other way. Indeed, all that President Obama has done is allowed Iran to further enrich more uranium to make nuclear bombs. President Obama&#8217;s softer tone has been met with complete disregard and disrespect in his ability as a leader, and they are laughing at him as we speak.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the so-called negotiations in Iran over nuclear enrichment have completely failed. Iran announces yet, another political rhetoric claim that it will build 10-nuclear power plants and set up enrichment facilities throughout the region and their Republic. Additionally, as we push closer to war, Israel wants no less than 25 of the new F-35 Stealthy fighter planes, obviously to attack Iran&#8217;s nuclear enrichment facilities, as in plural, (note; ies).</p>
<p>The reality is Israel has no choice, because Iran has already promised to blow Israel off the map, and all it has to do is give nuclear weapons to one of the terrorist organizations it sponsors to the tune of $100 million a year such as; Hezbollah or Hamas. And as all this conflict comes closer and closer to a head we have a massive arms buildup in the Middle East, and we have economic chaos in the UAE in Dubai, civil unrest in Pakistan, and our hands supposedly full in Afghanistan?</p>
<p>And when we look at President Obama&#8217;s foreign relations, one can only be underwhelmed by this young naive president, who seems to be clearly out of his league, in my professional and personal opinion. Especially as we watch Obama get upstaged by Hugo Chavez in an ALBA meeting when he hands him a book of socialist propaganda written by the historical Latin American Simon Bolivar, and in case you know the history of that, well, it was a huge statement.</p>
<p>In China, President Obama was allowed to give a speech on human rights to a group of university students, in a small gymnasium, a speech which was not televised in China, and in which the TV cameras used, were quite poor in quality. Then he was dressed up in a Mao costume along with the other diplomats, on a stage for all the Chinese to see. One critic recently stated; &#8220;Wow, President Obama, you sure know a lot about international politics don&#8217;t you?&#8221;</p>
<p>And whether you are an Obama supporter or not, all this sure brings up some serious questions such as; Has President Obama has caused a worsening of anti-American media world-wide sentiment and he is now endangering the US? Has his naive pre-election rhetoric has been displayed on the public world stage? Is he being up-staged, and giving away American sovereignty to all sorts of World Organizations run by Machiavellian anti-US folks that want the United States&#8217; wealth, power, and glory for themselves by stealing it? Is he heading and leading the US into a trap? Time will tell, meanwhile his critics seem to be growing in numbers while his job approval ratings go into a free fall, well below 50% now.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The President of United States of America, Barack Obama, has announced new war plans for Afghanistan? As if we are going to go in an entirely different direction. What is interesting is that the American people just want results, the results which were promised. We don&#8217;t need to hear about some new plan, our military must remain agile and adjust the war effort to whatever must be done.<span id="more-7166"></span></p>
<p>Announcing new plans is essentially alerting your enemy as to what we will be doing in the future &#8211; that seems like a rather unfortunate choice of options. But that&#8217;s not the only problem with this administration and the war in Afghanistan. You see, there seems to be a gap in believability of what President Obama reads from the teleprompter, and what he actually does. This is because he has not kept any of his pre-election promises, or successfully completed anything he has started. [if this bothers you, call it my personal opinion].</p>
<p>Unfortunately, our young and naive President is simply not credible anymore, not that he ever was, but at least the media had everyone believing it, but now, no one [consider his ever sinking poll numbers] believes anything he reads on that little teleprompter device, I for one sure as heck don&#8217;t. Since President Obama is no longer credible, believable, or can be taken for his word he is now completely ineffectual, and must be replaced.</p>
<p>Since Obama promises that he cares about the American people and this great nation, he should immediately re-sign in good faith, admit that he is in over his head, and that he is unfit to lead. Then he should quietly walk away, go back to Chicago and be quiet. It takes a strong man with a lot of courage to do that, but he must look in the mirror, ditch his ego, and come clean for all Americans. That would be the right and noble thing to do, and then perhaps he would deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.</p>
<p>My question is does Barack Obama have the personal character, honesty, and integrity to resign from the office because he is unfit to lead? That is my question, and I&#8217;m not interested in listening to anymore of his plans, just resign and show me.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks to close ties between the United States CIA and Beijing, the Chinese have agreed to continue to implant secret devices in &#8220;all&#8221; of the major weaponry they sell to foreign rogue nations such as Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Pakistan, and even Al Qaeda. These special devices will only be activated when hit with three simultaneous frequencies, which then triggers a micro-sensor that relays up to the satellite. This way in case any of these nation-states or terrorist groups intend to use such weapons on Israeli or US positions or military assets, they will be immediately identified and targeted by UAV in the battlespace.<span id="more-6884"></span></p>
<p>Why was this done? It was done under a secret agreement so that the US would not call for a boycott of Chinese Products into the US, which would cripple China&#8217;s economic engine and cause them to implode economically. Why is this important for the USA? Simple, knowing where these high-tech weapon assets are helps the United States military take care of business, thus, rendering those enemy war-fighters, and/or terrorists deleted and it still gives China the benefit of the revenue from the sale of these military weapons. Everyone wins, except those nations or bad guys buying the products.</p>
<p>Indeed, it also helps the Chinese Military in case those weapons fall into the hands of forces that would challenge China in any given area of the globe. It is especially good for China&#8217;s involvement in Africa, where they are selling weapons to rogue regimes that may not be in power in the future, and those weapons could fall into the hands of those who oppose Chinese exploits of raw materials in those countries. Please consider all this important information, which was obtained by our secret sources.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in the Cold War Days, there was the Iran-Contra Affair, but today we have the North Korean-Iran Affair. That&#8217;s right the UAE, United Arab Emirates took control of a ship containing North Korean weapons on its way to Iran.</p>
<p>The weapons included IEDs, armored piercing RPG rounds, and other serious weapon components, although it was not stated. This is a serious violation of UN Sanctions against both countries. We&#8217;ve known that Iran and North Korea have been doing a little weapons business over the years, but now this is hard evidence, and the UAE is quite concerned.</p>
<p>In fact, the UAE and other nearby nations have been rapidly gearing up and bolstering their own military expenditures during the last many years. The shipment of illegal weaponry was hidden and labeled &#8220;oil field hardware&#8221; but in actuality once the crates were open, it was obvious that nothing inside had anything to do with oil. It had to do with the types of weapons used to kill US Troops in Iraq, and the RPG armored tips used by insurgents.</p>
<p>Likewise, some of these devices may have been headed for Hezbollah, as that group has been stockpiling. But whatever the case, it is obvious that both Iran and North Korea are in bed together and those illegitimate regimes are busy scheming for war, rather than to come clean on their nuclear weapons plans.</p>
<p>Apparently, those who&#8217;ve sided with either North Korea or Iran politically on the issue of nuclear weapons must rethink why they are continuing such support. Clearly this is going to continue to be a problem and something must be done. Please think on this.</p>

They are interested in both our secret processes, innovations, military hardware, and are perhaps making future plans, which may or may not include military sanctioned attacks.<span id="more-6759"></span></p>
<p>Now most citizens would say that that is nothing more than a conspiracy theory, but if it&#8217;s just a conspiracy theory then why are there 6000 spies in our country from China, and why are there Chinese citizens attacking our computer systems? Likewise, why is China Flying spy satellites over the United States; what are they looking at, why do they want this information, and if we are supposed to be trading partners and friends with China, what on Earth are their future intentions?</p>
<p>The United States is a trading partner with China and if it weren&#8217;t for our middle class they could not have experienced a 10% year-over-year growth in their GDP that which has brought them up to the third or fourth position of GDP for nations of the world. It has been the United States that has made this possible, and yet, it appears this is how they repay us?</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Chinese are upgrading their military with better missiles, rockets, fighter aircraft, aircraft carriers, and now they have more warships than the United States military, but no real enemies that warrants such a large military; why? The President of China should be asked why China is flying spy satellites over the United States, and why they have so many spies in our country stealing our most valued secrets?</p>
<p>If you are not concerned, you should be; every American should be concerned about this. And if it doesn&#8217;t stop every American should boycott all Chinese products; anything made in their country. There is no sense in helping the Chinese become a greater economic powerhouse, if all they do with the money is used to exploit us.</p>
<p>Indeed, I hope you will please consider this, and for the record, I think China is a great nation, and her people are valuable, and important to the world. But that doesn&#8217;t remove the fact, that we have a problem that must be addressed, and we can&#8217;t address it by avoiding the topic. Not long ago, I mentioned this to Guang Wu, the author of a new book; &#8220;China: Has the Last Opportunity Passed by!?&#8221; and he indicated that dialogue was healthy and the issues are much more complicated than this.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many defense industry and global military analysts are concerned with the advancement of the Chinese Naval Forces. And for good reason as it seems the Treasure Fleet Sails Again and Admiral Zhang is on the bridge. Those who underestimate the future Chinese Sea Power fail to understand history, or the Chinese people&#8217;s ability to think big and then execute their large scale long term plans with deadly agility and strength.<span id="more-6211"></span></p>
<p>If we look at some of the recent news in Naval Weaponry and advanced naval vessels we do see some interesting things here in April of 2009. First, China has been rather quiet in building up its Navy, but now the Nation is showing its drive towards becoming the second World&#8217;s Super Power. The nation is now going to show off some of its sea prowess, as per this global headline:</p>
<p>Chinese Navy puts it high-tech submarines on display for the world as show</p>
<p>The Interesting thing about putting a submarine on display is you cannot tell a whole lot about it, as much of what you are looking for will be under the water line. However, the antennas that go to some of its electronic hardware are what make the vessel a real sea monster. Size also matters meaning it can carry more weapons and stay underwater for longer as well. So, no one should underestimate the Chinese sub program.</p>
<p>Still the US Navy, the greatest naval force ever assembled belonging to the most powerful nation in human history also announced the purchasing of some new ships with this recent headline:</p>
<p>General Dynamics wins bid to supply 5 US Navy Destroyers DGS 1000</p>
<p>Well, what can we say except these littoral stealthy boars are more than perfect for hunting pirates, drug dealers on the water or just about anything anywhere that cares to show themselves. Interestingly enough, some say this is also perfect timing after the Capitan Richard Phillips incident with the pirates. Are the two related, some conspiracy theorists might think so, but these pirates have been a pain in the butt for quite a while, so this was to be expected.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many historians and military strategists in Europe, Israel, and the US warn that the time is coming where action is the only answer to stop the centrifuges from spinning in the underground nuclear weapons manufacturing facilities in Iran. Why? Because Iran supports terrorist organizations which covertly serve its will thru proxy.<span id="more-5718"></span></p>
<p>But can a successful pre-emption be completed? Some say that Iran is doable, the targets are known, the questionable targets are suspected and we know that the first strike must include deleting every Iranian Navy Vessel and the bases near the choke point Straight of Hormuz.</p>
<p>They say that the US Navy may as well have a massive battle to show its worth and let&#8217;s test out our net-centric abilities. They want to shut that place down like can of sardines as well as CNN and Al Jazeera being perhaps put on the first strike list. Just do it they say, it&#8217;s not like we haven&#8217;t been over this with a 1,000 scenarios.</p>
<p>Indeed they suggest putting a call into Putin, 30-seconds before first bomb and explain we expect them to stand-down, then call the Chinese, and let them know what&#8217;s up. If Syria launches, shoot down every unit that hits the sky and warn them they are next, if they resist. In essence they say to strike a massive overwhelming blow. Use the whole track.</p>
<p>Those who want to take action ask; &#8220;Why is this a problem?&#8221; and point to philosophical military arguments. They say that if we wait for coalition approval, it will never happen. They remind us that Karl von Clausewitz warned those who fail to pre-empt when their enemy is planning to attack do so at the expense of their people. In this case some major city in Europe or a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s what comes next they say, if action does not occur and everyone knows it too, and they are probably right. Besides if we wait they add &#8211; Iran, will just fortify deeper and Russians will make ultimatums and the Syrians have a war pact and the Chinese keep selling them high-tech weapons.</p>
<p>Those who call for immediate action tell us that we sure are not acting like a Super Power, allowing the World Media to diminish us, only causes us to prove it when push comes to shove and political impasse occurs and it will if they think you are weak. Interesting debate yes?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, North Korea now tells us they have 5-plutonium nuclear weapons, after they promised to stop making them. Russia is certainly pushing their will in our Western Hemisphere and Venezuela has stepped up the rhetoric. Even Al Qaeda states President Obama is a hypocrite and other various things I am banned from saying online.<span id="more-5701"></span></p>
<p>Iran seems to be undeterred now, thanks to the World Media weakening the US Superpower political status. There are way too many centrifuges spinning and they have Chinese and Russian technology. You cannot make a deal with Iran, they are untrustworthy, any deal you make is only for show and BS in reality. It&#8217;s the nature of their style of things. Trust but verify doesn&#8217;t work because, they lie for fun, it&#8217;s part of their way of doing business.</p>
<p>Looks like Russia is having fun playing around with the Iranian/US showdown in trade for removing the concept of a missile defense shield and they have been trying to play games showing force around the globe; Cuba, Venezuela, etc. And NATO seems to be very weak lately with coming together on things.</p>
<p>Personally, I believe that we need the bases in Iraq and we need that Oil too. Iraq is a strategic place on the map &#8211; I&#8217;d say anyone who has ever played the board game RISK sees that? Of course, the game is still in play around the world and many of our not so close allies appear to willing to run President Obama through the paces to see what he is made of.</p>
<p>So, the time for speeches is over, it&#8217;s time for President Obama to show the world, because many are unconvinced. Think on this.</p>
