Are United States Troops Really Going to Leave the Middle East?

Ft. Bliss Troops in preparation for desert warfare

President Barack Obama has made good on another campaign promise that he would get troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan during his tenure. I find it very interesting that the timing of the removal of American forces from those areas comes directly before the next presidential election almost one year to the date.

Fort Bliss, Texas is under massive growth in troop strength and in construction...
But the question is, will American troops stay out of any wars in the Middle East? I believe that Pres. Obama will win reelection and he will enter into another series of wars in the middle east after the deal is done. I have several reasons for believing this. First of all, you need to take a look at the type of training military troops are currently acquiring. One of the largest military bases for training in desert warfare in the United States is Fort Bliss, Texas. Currently, Fort Bliss, Texas is under massive growth in troop strength and in construction that people are referring to the newly built parts of Fort Bliss as "the second Fort Bliss".

Don't believe me? Read it here: http://www.elpasotexas.gov/econdev/fortbliss.asp

As you probably already know, Fort Bliss is next to El Paso, Texas where there a large desert environment for troops to train in. Why would they not be building up troops to train in mountainous and snowy terrain?  Why aren't they expanding Fort Wainwright or Fort Richardson and Alaska? The answer is obvious, we are expecting more conflict in the Middle East where there are desert environments.

...we are also strategically placing troops in the Mediterranean region for possible inclusion if a war should break out.
Not only are we training troops for desert like environments, but we are also strategically placing troops in the Mediterranean region for possible inclusion if a war should break out. As a matter of fact, Russian intelligence has detected that American troops are being built up along the borders of Iran, and there is still talk that there will be a possible stationing of permanent troops in Iraq to help stabilize the government.

President George Bush, during his reelection conveniently pulled out troops from Iraq but was quietly placing them in Afghanistan at the same time

Not only that, but there are true buildups and movements within the Mediterranean region to include Italy, Syria, Egypt and several other countries that are "conveniently located" in the region. Let us not forget that during President Clinton's tenure, he pledged that we would only have troops temporarily in Bosnia but as he was making that pledge, the troops were building permanent encampments there and there are still United States troops stationed in Bosnia.  Let us also not forget that President George Bush, during his reelection, conveniently pulled out troops from Iraq but was quietly placing them in Afghanistan at the same time.

Obama is America's New Dictator! Hail Lord Obama!

Yesterday on Fox News, news pundit Juan Williams admitted to the hosts of the show that President Obama had to override the Congress and Senate and use executive orders to "get anything through the Republican Congress or Senate."  Apparently, Mr. Williams does not understand the intention of executive orders, because he would see that these specific orders are to be used in a time of  national emergency.  A clear example of this in recent history would have been possibly been 911 when America was under attack by terrorist forces.  Executive orders are not to be used as a political tool to ram through more legislation but as an authority in a time of national crisis.

Executive Orders Are Dangerous as a Political Tool

Once you go down the road of using executive orders in this fashion, there is no end to the dictatorial powers a president would have.  Below is a partial list of Presidential Executive Orders that could be invoked by a seated president:


Executive Orders (EO)s are decrees that are issued by the President of the United States and which carry the force of law when activated by a president. All EOs are printed in the U.S. Federal Register. The following are a few examples of some EOs and their purposes that relate to a State of national emergency. [1] (http://www.aero-vision.com/~rayj/no02003.htm)

• 10995--Federal seizure of all communications media in the United States;
• 10997--Federal seizure of all electric power, fuels, minerals, public and private;
• 10998--Federal seizure of all food supplies and resources, public and private and all farms and equipment;
• 10999--Federal seizure of all means of transportation, including cars, trucks, or vehicles of any kind and total control over all highways, seaports and water ways;
• 11000--Federal seizure of American people for work forces under federal supervision, including the splitting up of families if the government so desires;
• 11001--Federal seizure of all health, education and welfare facilities, both public and private;
• 11002--Empowers the Postmaster General to register all men, women and children in the United States of America;
• 11003--Federal seizure of all airports and aircraft;
• 11004--Federal seizure of all housing and finances and authority to establish Forced Relocation. Authority to designate areas to be abandoned as "unsafe," establish new locations for the populations, relocate communities, build new housing with public funds;
• 11005--Seizure of all railroads, inland waterways and storage facilities, both public and private;
• 11051--Provides FEMA complete authorization to put above orders into effect in times of increased international tension of economic or financial crisis (FEMA will be in control in case of "National Emergency").

The Loss of All Civil Rights

Basically, Americans under a president using this type of power at will would be in a police state, wherein all civil rights would easily be revoked.  America would enter into a tyranny that it could not easily get out of.  Because most Americans have been so dumbed-down, they don't even know or understand how much blood was shed in the establishment of our federal republic.  They are unaware of how much torture, death and suffering our freedom loving ancestors had to pay fighting a British tyrant.  Now, we have people within our free press calling for the President of the United States to act like King George III and seize total control.

If Americans don't wake up very soon, we will see an America much like the one depicted in this Discovery Channel Video:

Welcome Back Troops, You Have No Jobs!!!

America is desperately grasping at straws while trying to become a part of a new world government.  While handing over billions and trillions of dollars to just about everyone on the planet, the Congress and Senate are cutting more Americans out of jobs.  Yes, it is OK for Hillary to show up in Libya this week and pledge another 11 million dollars to an unstable government, after all, we already gave them 135 million over the last couple of years.  (Not to mention the billions we gave to Pakistan.)and now we are now going to tell our military men to "take a hike."

Defense Secretary, Leon Panetta today announced that the Pentagon is now going to slash its military budget by 260 billion!  That's right troops, not only will you be out of a job (and by the way, you can forget postal jobs, and any other government jobs, because they are all getting cut and gutted) but you can also get in line behind the millions upon millions of immigrants that are flooding our country for any assistance, because after all, charity begins in foreign lands.

 And let's make no mistake about this, the people that are currently in the Congress and Senate are not on your side, no matter what they tell you in this upcoming election season.  Yeah, Obama isn't the economy President, that's for sure, but neither are the Democrats or the Republicans that are in charge.  Both parties hate your guts behind closed doors and are raking in foreign money to fuel their political machines.  Too hard to believe, let's take a look at the evidence:


If you are from another country, and want food stamps, you don't have to even speak the language and you will have food stamps in your hands within 3 working days.  If you are a veteran, forget it.
If you are from a foreign country in California or Texas (doesn't matter if it's legal or illegal) you get in - state tuition for college.  Everybody else from different states can pay out of state tuition.
If you want to be a teacher in America, come on in the water's fine.  However, if you want to go to most foreign countries and teach, get in the back of the line.
We are handing millions upon millions of dollars to foreign countries every time there is a disaster, yet we barely get assistance from our own government when disaster strikes.

I guess we could go on and on, but why kill a gnat with a bazooka?  If you think our elected officials are for the United States of America and its people, think again.

Today's News Looks Like the Book of Revelation

I swear, sometimes I think I am in a science fiction movie.  Reading and watching today's news is akin to watching the movie The Omen about the introduction of a global government and a charismatic world leader.  Let's just take some recent events.  for example, I don't ever recall a time in my life when about half the countries in the Middle East are leaderless and in some cases in  a state of anarchy.  Currently, Libya, Iraq, are leaderless and Syria is in political upheaval as well as Egypt.  Wouldn't it be interesting to see an unknown leader emerge that could lead all of them at once?

Vatican Calls for a Global Currency 
Just this week, the Vatican released a 18 page document stating that there should be a global currency and a supranational entity ( global government) to control it.  You can read the rest of this here: http://doomedrepublic.blogspot.com/2011/10/666-get-ready-for-global-banking-system.html
 So,  it comes as no surprise that there are other quickly developing events that are very similar occurring in the world that would leave you to believe we are nearing an end of Biblical proportions.

The EU Bails Out Greece and Then Goes to China with Hat in Hand
 Just yesterday, the European Union (EU) bailed Greece out of total financial collapse, even though the Union is totally bankrupt and manufacturing digital money that is not worth the paper it is not written on.  Today the leaders of the EU are asking China for money, but the Chinese who are obviously a little smarter than the rest of the bankrupt world, are sitting back and telling the EU, "We'll take it into consideration."

You can read it here:
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-10-26/euro-rescue-fund-chief-goes-to-china-as-europe-seeks-investors.html
What's next? It is hard to tell exactly what will happen, but you can almost guarantee that more horrible economic news is on the horizon as the U.S. makes more financial mistakes, like handing out money to the rest of the world while its own economy flounders.  If the U.S totally collapses, then where will the rest of the world get its funding and ammunition?  You only have to look to the Chinese to find that answer.

About 4 Million Preppers are Getting Ready, Are You?

At last count, there are approximately 4 million people that are getting ready for all heck to break loose.  These people are storing up guns, food, and a plethora of other goods in anticipation of our beloved government falling apart of an economic collapse.  Personally, I don't know why anybody would feel this way.  I mean, you have the Congress and the Senate which are a collection of highly seasoned businessmen and women that are feverishly looking out for the good of the American people.  They are four - square for our republic because they are making very sound and sane decisions concerning YOUR future.

For example, people that just got off of the boat in most states can now get in-state tuition in places like California and Texas, while people like you, that have lived in this country and possibly fought in wars protecting our way of life, can get in the back of the line.  You could have fought in the Iraq War, and been a resident of the state of Washington, and decided to go to Cal-Tech and have to pay out of state tuition, while an illegal immigrant could get full in-state tuition.  Gee, isn't that fair?

Don't believe me?  read it here: http://www.redstate.com/tex_whitley/2011/09/23/rick-perry-is-right-on-in-state-tuition-for-immigrants-in-texas/

Also, every Republican front runner wants to raise taxes!  I know we aren't paying enough as it is, and since we are all so affluent, we can easily go out and get in line behind all of those other unemployed persons (both from inside and outside of our country) for a second and third income.  Herman Cain, can't seem to understand that if you add another sales tax on a national level, and still have state sales taxes, that it is ADDING sales taxes to your plight.  Check out this exchange:




Obviously, with such great leadership both in and out of the White House, Americans are feeling safe and secure about their futures.  That's why 4 million Preppers (people that are basically survivalists) are storing up guns, food,water and other tangibles, in order to survive an economic calamity.  It is fairly obvious that the people at the helm have lost their compass, and soon it will be every man, woman and child scrambling for life rafts. 

If you can get some of these provisions ready now, you should.  Everyday, inflation is driving the prices of goods up to more expensive levels, which means that you will need more income to prepare. Take your cue from 4 million preppers that have decided to play it safe.

666: Get Ready for a Global Banking System

The Vatican headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church, just released an 18 page document entitled "Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of a Global Public Authority,” stated that economies around the world should have an "ethic of solidarity" and that the standard should be held between rich and poor nations alike.

In this document, the Vatican called upon the United Nations to be the sole authority in the implementation of a "supranational authority" ( The European Union is a supranational authority, so the Vatican is eluding to a global union or some larger overriding authority when it refers to this.) Please read Wikipedia's definition of this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supranational_union

According to this document, time is of the essence, because of the global monetary crisis and the violence it has created across much of the Middle East and Europe.  The document also stated that national sovereignty should be scraped in many countries  as economic policies are replaced by many of these nations.  This would essentially mean that countries around the world would merge their bank accounts in an effort to alleviate any financial pressures or possible wars that may occur, such as in the case of WWI and WWII, just to name a few.

Top Trend Researcher Days "Get Ready for the Worst in 2012, America!"

Gerald Celente, an expert at spotting trends says that by 2012 America will fragment and have massive riots, food shortages and a possible revolution.  Mr. Celente, who runs the Trends Research Institute and writes the Trends Research Journal magazine states that horrible and devastating economic events will rock America over the next 24 months.  He has done such a superb job of predicting trends and events that he has been the guest on CNN, Fox News, CNBC and written for such publications such as the Wall Street Journal. 

Here is a recent interview by Gerald on the fact that Wall Street IS Washington now.

Let's Sell Our Lands to the Chinese!!! Go Ahead Take Our Country, We're Stupid!

Most people don't know this, but there is a government program in which you can get a visa to permanently live in the U.S. if you start a business that is investing $500,000 into what is considered as a government designated Regional Center investment visa program.  This program is what is known as EB-5.  Well, in another blind and apparently thoughtless move the U.S. Congress is putting a bill through its paces to pass a similar act, one in which a foreigner could by a $500,000 piece of real estate and get a permanent visa to live in the U.S.

Don't believe me???   See the report here:
http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-visas-home-buyers-20111021,0,6715779.story
The bill has been introduced by two U.S. Senators and they think it would be a boon to California's foreclosed real estate market and one that the Chinese absolutely love.  You see, it isn't bad enough that there is a huge trade imbalance between the U.S. and China. And while we're at it, it also isn't bad enough that they deliberately devalue the U.S. dollar against their own currency, but now they can use that devalued currency to  buy our own real estate right out from under us!!!

Yes, that's right, the Chinese and just about any other foreigners that have more money than American citizens (which is just about the rest of the world) can use their currency which is currently worth more than our own to buy our lands away from us.

For years I was always concerned that the Chinese were going to start a war with the United States.  After all, they have consolidated a massive military machine within their own borders and even created a James Bond style submarine base built into the side of a mountain in the South China Sea, capable of housing at least 25 nuclear submarines.  I mean, gee, what were they going to do with that, play patty-cake with us?  But why would they need all of that when they have our Congress and Senate in their arsenal? Every time our government officials make a decision of any type, it is almost always in favor of every other country in the world, so I often wonder why the Chinese would even bother building a military machine like that.

It is such a pleasing sight to see people that come to America, from countries that have sucked up our wealth, jobs and now real estate and have absolutely no stake in this country whatsoever get every tax break, benefit and resource that they can. I would also like to point out that they can also leave and go back home whenever things get tough, because they will have dual citizenship and not have to deal with any of the calamities that Americans will have to incur  in the next couple of years.  When the economic junk really hits the fan and we have anarchy in our streets, the Chinese,  or whoever, can smile, jump on their planes and go home.

The rest of us will have to deal with this mess.

Muammar Gaddafi's Death Will Still Not Save America

It is amazing to me how much press coverage this event is getting.  Muammar Gaddafi was apparently  killed by NATO and US backed rebels, ( although, most news reports I watched said they didn't know exactly who these rebels were) and apparently Americans are supposed to take another day off of work (those that are actually employed) and crack open a Bud in celebration.


Well, it is simply not happening.  Even though Obama and his misfits are walking around with their chests stuck out in victory, nobody is applauding.  The reason?  Apparently the Misery Index in the United States is at its highest levels since Jimmy Carter was at the end of his tenure as President in June of 1980.  At that time, the US Misery Index was 21.98 and it is currently at 12.97 and growing daily.  I guess it is kinda - sorta hard to get real excited when you don't have a clue how you are going to feed your family or your job is being placed on the chopping block.

The Cost of Killing a Despot and Let's Buy Our Friends!

One thing we would love to know is how much of the tax payers money did it take to kill Muammar?  I haven't heard the figures yet, but I know that in the case of Osama Bin Laden, it cost the US Tax payers nearly 1.28 trillion!  Just yesterday, Hillary Clinton offered an aid package to Libya (Yeah, the same country we are half-way at war with...)  worth cash and prizes of 11 million dollars.  However, that is only a small part of the story. Since last February, we have given Libya $135 million dollars in aid.  Bear in mind, we have no clue what type of people are going to take power once the political smoke clears in that country.


Veterans and Postal Workers Can Take a Hike

But hey, that's all good, because we are going to be saved by the Republican Party.  Currently, the Republicans in Congress want to make sure that we make up for all of this trite spending and handing out of money all over the world by Hillary and her ilk, by taking jobs away from postal workers and cutting Veteran's benefits.  That's right America, let's take away from our own and hand it out to the rest of the world.  What the heck, $ 135 million to Libya, $100 million to Haiti, $2 billion to Pakistan, and there's always more to go around! (Unless you are a US postal worker or Veteran.)  Currently, the Republican led Congress, is masterminding a complete restructuring of the US Postal system in an effort to find more money to hand out to the rest of the world.  According to reports, a possible 122,000 postal workers may lose their jobs, many of them veterans that have served their country in foreign wars.  Also, they want to "move" veterans retirements over to 401 (K) plans that military retirees won't be able to draw on until the age of 57.

But hey, why should you worry?  We've finally killed Muammar Gaddafi, so crack open a Bud and celebrate. Whassssupp??

Why I Think We Are in the 12th Hour

People in government positions are starting to be laid off in large numbers. As a matter of fact, jobs that normally would seem to be very secure are now getting eliminated. You don't need to look any further than your local post office to see that this is happening. I currently live in Lexington, Kentucky, and they are shutting down one of the main postal plants in town. Currently, the government is going shut down close to 3700 postal units nationwide. In my opinion, this is nothing more than grandstanding by the Republican Party to make it look like they are really trying to fix a problem, which is our national debt and deficit spending. When you start eliminating jobs that are vital to the economy, such as the post office, then it would follow suit that anybody else that has any kind of money coming from federal government is in a lot of trouble as well.

Is This the Beginning of the End for the United States Government?

Recently, to include the postal closings, there have been indicators that the United States government is just about insolvent. For one thing, we almost had a complete shutdown of the federal government because Congress and the Senate could not arrive at a budget proposal deal. Does this sound like a government that has enough money to function? And while we're at it and to add to all of this, recently there has been high-level meetings at the Pentagon and with our elected leaders to put military retirements on the table for approximately $9 billion in reductions. That's right, fighting men overseas that are getting their arms and legs blown off every day or at least have the threat of that, will not be able to get a 20 year retirement and the people that are currently retired are facing some sort of half baked revision. The government wants to give our fighting men and women some sort of weird 401(k) plan that they will not be able to draw on until they reach the age of 57! There has never been a time of my life while I was thoroughly convinced that this government is scrambling for every crazy idea that he can get its hands on to save themselves.

Charity Begins at Home

If you recall, Congress and the Senate decided to hand out bailout money to corporations in an effort to keep them afloat. One of the companies they had money over to was General Motors and that tax money went towards Chinese jobs. Yes, that's right, General Motors sent some of their factories overseas and hired Chinese laborers. So, even the money that the government gave as a bailout, went to foreign countries. Let's not forget all of the foreign countries we just hand money over to anyway. $100 million to Haiti for earthquake relief, over $2 billion what the Pakistan because they had a flood. We literally sent John Kerry and Hillary Clinton the flyover Pakistan to view the devastation. (I wonder how many of our government officials flew over New Orleans after it at a flood.) Over the last 10 years we've handed out $10 million alone to reform Chinese prostitutes. Yes, that's right, we handed over $10 million to reform Chinese prostitutes. I guess you could say, America is trying to buy its friends. Of course, this is not to mention the fact that the United States has a huge trade imbalance with China and we are actually afraid that it will somehow cause a war if we do not meet their demands every month. In my book, that is what you call extortion.

Write Your Representatives, Tell Them that Charity Begins in the Home!!!

The Jist of the Doomed Republic

It is obvious to anyone that is even slightly aware that something is very wrong with Washington. Here we are, entering what appears to be a depression, (which is nothing more than a prolonged recession) and you have the Republican leadership proposing a new tax system. On the other hand, you have the Democrats that just told us that they had all of these great plans under President Obama to take America to a new height of glory. Well, I'm glad these political parties are working out for us. Of course, Americans have nobody to blame but themselves.


Don't Worry, Herman Cain Will Save Us
One of the reasons that I say this, is because the Democrats and the Republicans are constantly making promises that they can't keep and the American people keep believing them. A good example of this right now is the Republican tax code that Herman Cain is promoting. He is telling the American people that we will get rid of one group of taxes and replace it with another. Now, I don't know if you remember correctly, but the Republican Party said they were going to get rid of Obama care and now that they are in office they are conveniently ignoring that promise. I see and hear nothing in the newspapers or any trade journals that would suggest that the Republican Party is still on track to get rid of and repeal Obama care. Well, it will be the same thing with this new 999 tax plan that Cain is suggesting. What the Republicans will do is create new taxes while not getting rid of the previous ones that they mentioned. Just like Obama care, they will conveniently ignore the fact that they promised to get rid of the other taxes first. As you know, Obama care has created more taxes for the American people while delivering less. Any time a government tells the American people that they are going to be able to revitalize the nation by implementing programs, I would say that is a complete falsehood. It doesn't matter if it is the Democrats or the Republicans.



A Scary Addiction
Michele Bachmann, who was a congresswoman running for president is also a tax lawyer and she was absolutely correct when she said that we will never get rid of those taxes. If anything, Congress is addicted (a term that I believe she used, and she is correct) to sucking up revenue generated by taxes. She even cited a tax from the Mexican-American war that we still pay, because once you implement a tax, you will never, ever get rid of it. Now, I teach political science in a private school, and every year I have told my students the exact same thing. Never allow a politician to talk you into a new tax, because you will never get rid of it. And, while we're at it, those taxes will go up every year. So, considering all of this I felt that it was important that I write this blog and produce my thoughts on these matters.

What's My Slant?
I am not politically motivated by any particular party, and there are different people in both parties that I can agree with and disagree with. In my opinion, most politicians that America has today are very ineffective, self-serving and are hell-bent on seeing a republic dissolved and be replaced by something bigger. I think it is important that the American people know what they are up against and that is a two-party system that is really a one-party system designed to placate Americans and make them think that they have a choice when in reality they do not.

Why I am Writing This Blog
During the course of my writing this blog, I hope to point out obvious examples of the fact that our Federal Republic is being destroyed by the very two parties that claim to be supporting it. America is being destroyed by design and it is not by accident. I will be reporting on this information as I go through my weekly blog posts and I will also be directing you to information that comes straight from the horse's mouth in Washington. If you can't look at the evidence and see that our own government is constantly working against us, then there really isn't any hope for America and we are truly a doomed republic.
