The OLD NEW Great Game - West and Russia and Afghanistan

Fox News: Reports that Russia could become an active partner in the NATO war in Afghanistan from the training of Afghan Security Forces to allowing NATO to use Russian soil for the transfer of military equipment. One has to wonder sometimes what goes on in the mind of the political and military elite, how are the Afghans expected to react, they will think this the West and Russia playing a new version of Great Game with Afghanistan as pawns of the American Eagle and the Russia Bear. Also the price for Russia help will also to be high, if your Poland or the Czech Republic you must wonder if Obama is going to sell them out even further, force them to accept Russian troops, one has to wonder, Obama sold these countries out over missile defence and got nothing for it, the Russian Bear does not think much of weakness. If POTUS goes through with this plan he will face a backlash in Afghanistan from his Afghan Allies, they will think that they are being sold down the river to the Russians, it the terrorist insurgents will use the PR to show that there is no difference between the West and Russia. The Eastern Europe States will wonder who else Obama will sell out, also in the US Obama could face political counter attack from those who think that he bows and says sorry to much to the enemy of the US present or former. President Obama really wants to be a one term President, that can only be the reason for this foolish idea.
 

HACKED by Liberals ?


Had shock today folks, told that My Space page had been hacked, it has to be Liberals, how low can Liberals go, or left wingers, they tried to block this blog and say it was spam, it seems that the only intolerant people beside Al Qaeda are Liberals. They cant stand people who have a different view from the mob mind set, how come its only Conservatives that believe in free speech.

Health Reform and the Mid Term Elections

The New York Times: Reports how Democratic Candidates in the Mid Term Elections are been forced on the back foot due the passing of ObamaCare. This is a fun article folks as its shows how unpopular ObamaCare is with Democrats that the Liberal NYT can only name one Democrat that supports ObamaCare on the whole. That’s the problem when you have something like the bloated LIBERAL NYT, they can not understand how the rest of the country does not support their world view, extreme liberal big government and love putting up taxes.

Lord Mandelson, Coalition Government vs. Ed Miliband and Labour

The Daily Mail: Reports that the Dark Prince Lord Mandelson has supported the polices of the Coalition Government when it comes to cutting the debt and its welfare reform. Also warned the new Labour Leader Ed Miliband not to ditch the centre ground, in other words New Labour. The Dark Prince did support David Miliband for the Labour Leadership and was quite critical of Ed Miliband when the election was on, so the question that has to be asked is what is Lord Mandelson up too, is he after a job in the Coalition Government, that would be interesting, it would show in many respects that the one of the founders of New Labour had given up on the Labour Party, would Lord Mandelson do that without the okay of Tony Blair. Or is this an attempt by Blair, Mandelson, Campbell using Mandelson as the front man as a subtle warning to Ed Miliband not to throw New Labour under the bus as they are not his brother and will fight back, not sure you want to get in to a knife fight with Blair, Mandelson and Campbell IF they are up to something, it’s a big IF of course, prefer the cynic when thinking about New Labour and Labour, saves time folks.

Obama vs. Israel and the Middle East


Guardian: Reports on the Obama Policy when it comes to Israel and the long term policy of the creation of a State for the people of Palestine. The Article states the following on President Obama, “ A president who was inaugurated amid great hopes……has seen his stock tumble in the intervening 21 months. ”. If after the November 2nd Elections the Republicans take the House and reach parity with the Democrats in the Senate the Obama policy of having any real influence over Israel is over, if Obama tries to place pressure on Israel to grant concessions to the Palestinians the Government of Israel will use its major influence on the Hill to overrule any Obama sanctions against Israel. Even the Liberal Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi stated that when it came to Israel the Democrats and Republicans had once voice and that voice was not President Obama. Thus the Oval might find that it is boxed in on the domestic and international front, it will be a different world for President Obama after November 2nd.

Echoes of the Cold War - Gorbachev on Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports that the former President of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev has stated the West cant win in Afghanistan and that President Obama is right to start to withdraw troops in 2011. On whole this blog respects the opinions of President Gorbachev, without him and Ronald Reagan the Cold War could still be on, but on this subject the President is wrong, the War in Afghanistan in 2010 is not the War in Afghanistan of the 1980s. The one major difference is that Pakistan is a nuclear armed power, if Afghanistan falls to the Taliban again, then the Taliban of Pakistan will have a base to attack the Government of Pakistan. A Taliban Regime with a nuclear armed missile can not be tolerated, it would place the World on the threat of a nuclear war, thus Afghanistan is not the point, yes the War in Afghanistan has echoes of the Vietnam War, corrupt Government, a terrorist insurgency that his being funded by Iran, in the case of the Viet Cong by North Vietnam, but Afghanistan is not the prize its Pakistan. All means have to used to keep Pakistan stable, it can be argued that President Gorbachev is fighting the War of the Past.
