Helping Africa

The Times: A very interesting and informative article in the Times today on business chances in Africa. Its a different take on Africa, its about business, investing in small companies in Africa and making money from the idea. Its different from the usual African call, Charity, its about helping people in Africa to follow the Western model, developing a business and getting rich. The Company if it makes a profit can develop and hire workers. Thus its a win ( African Company )/win ( more workers, the local economy gets richer )/win ( Investor, makes money and can feel good abut the business). Read of the Day.

Money down the Toilet

Fox News: Reports that Senate Republicans and Democrats have come together to bailout the Car Industry. The Chiefs of the Car Companies came to D.C to ask for money, how did they travel, private plane. Lets cut the bull, the Car Companies have become Welfare Departments. If they fail the argument goes millions will be out of work, lets see why does that ring a bell, yes the UK in the 1970s. It was bull then and its bull now, this is pure welfare by other means, if these companies cant survive without government help they should go down the toilet, that goes for Wall Street also. Lets hope this welfare programme is blocked, because it can be postulated that President Obama who is a Liberal will fund these broke Companies. The USA is going to become the Sick Man of the Western World.

Terror and the Law

Fox News: Reports that five alleged terror suspects have been ordered released by the Courts. This is madness, what if they return to the battlefield, what if they are part of another 9/11, this is out right bonkers. What if the Liberals get their way and terrorists are released and a nuclear terrorist attacks happens on American Soil. In War you keep the enemy as POW's, but since these terrorists are not from a country, you throw them in jail and lose the key. Lets us Pray that the Judge in this case does not over breakfast one day read that these alleged terrorists have killed thousands. There is sometimes a difference between the law and justice, justice was not served today and the law was let down. It can be argued that Bush has failed to make the Judiciary see the threat from the terrorist threat and that Obama will appointment more Liberal Judges.

The Left and Obama

LA Times: Reports that the Liberal base of the Obama support are not happy that Obama is placing Iraq War supporters in his Cabinet. This should make Obama pleased, these Liberals are not the United States and lets be honest they have nowhere else to go in 2012. President Obama can afford to dismiss them, there one concern is getting out of Iraq, his concern is getting a second term. If Obama makes a fast exit from Iraq, the place could fall in to a Civil War, Iran could come in, and Obama would be forced to send the troops back in, what would the Liberal base think then of Obama. This is a good move by Obama, shows he is own man and not under the influence of Liberals.

Nuclear Armed Iran

IHT: Reports that Iran has the ability to make one nuclear bomb. The questions has to be asked what will the out going Bush Administration do with news, nothing, strike Iran, allow Israel to hit Iran. It can be argued that Bush cant wait to leave the White House, does not want another War on his hands before he leaves his office, thus the problem will be passed over to new President. Thus the next question what will Obama do about Iran, will he follow through with stated aim to talk to Iran without preconditions, or he latest plan, well planned meeting before he would talk to Iran. Also what if Hillary Clinton is Secretary of State, is she going to be the fall guy for a weak Obama Foreign Policy. The joker in the pack is Israel, will Israel wait for a Obama Administration to make its mind up, its hitting of Syrian nuclear site shows it wont take threats in its backyard. Expect Iran to be a growing issue for the Obama Administration.
