More troops in Iraq, with the promise(from psychopathic liars)that the troops will come home, soon....er...maybe....er...perhaps in 2029, if there is a 2029.

We need more troops to train the Iraqis.
Col. Theodore S. Westhusing.

Word is that planning is in the works for a false flag attack on Israel. The logical response to this will of course be a full scale attack on Iran.

Iserbyte, Charolette I believe is her name.

2. Wha?
I can't follow your train of thought. It's on tracks that are kind of wobbly.

3. Not wobbly at all
I am though the Lasthorseman and very few can follow my train of thought. I am an expatriot and as such I have been exposed to two things. A prolonged absence of MSM type American "media" plus another culture, composed of mainly rational thinking adults. It was refreshing once I learned enough German to understand what was going on. Today in "America" there is little difference between left and right in government in the conventional sense. Both seek to control people through the manipulation of reality and the framing of issues based upon their own particular brand of biases. In this particular case the Dems agree to send more troops with the stipulation that this will lead to the troops coming home. Well, in the last six years of the complete and utter destruction of American ideals, Constitution,way of life, torture, has there been one, I mean has there been even one filibuster? Dissent will not be tolerated. Diversity of opinion will not be tolerated. We just have to "win" in Iraq.
After all, it is a "post 911 world we live in now".

Yes, I am the Lasthorseman, and all I want is a last horse ride the one before the Apocalypse.

4. It's "expatriate," not "expatriot." Just so you know.
