Nothing ever changes

I must confess that the post operative problem of being visually impaired for over two months did have one small benefit. I did not have to tolerate the daily insanity anti-war nonsense presently encompassing every news site I visit.

We are faced with a deluge of anti-war protesting, elected officials screaming from rooftops, why not, it makes for great election year table discussion and the media reminding us every day that we cannot win this war. The people already have their new poster child in Obama and the media is digging even deeper into the land of intense nausea with this guy.

This morning I bring up Google News and the first thing my still healing eyes see is a headline stating, “In the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln”. I had no idea what this article was about, so stupid me, I click on it and read how Obama is now being touted as the new Lincoln. Somebody bring me a barf bag!

Iran is trying their best to win the hearts and minds of the people of Iraq and our government takes heat for going after their scumbags now working in that war torn country. Syria is sitting back trying their best to be quiet while sending their money to the Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israel, once the feared nemesis of all terrorists are presently embroiled in their own problems with the ruling party being accused of everything from rape to malfeasance.

Our Special Operations are being accused of operating in the Philippines, a direct violation of their laws and actively pursuing terrorist and killing them with extreme prejudice. Afghanistan is still a complete mess, the Taliban is trying their best to retake anything they can, even if it is a piece of dry desert. Of course, this is simply an exercise in futility as the only thing they accomplish is a fast trip to the promised land when they cross the border. and meet our Special Operation teams who are waiting for them.

With all of this in mind, I have reached a conclusion about all of this anti war nonsense. If we are so badly tied up in Iraq, why are we taking out every terrorists in other parts of the world. Perhaps someone in the anti war, bleeding heart media forgot to tell our military they will never be able to win this war. Rubbish, trash and election nonsense is what this all is and I for one am already sick of reading through it all.

The sad commentary is we will get some bleeding heart, tree hugging politician into the White House and all hell will break loose throughout the world. Terrorism does not go away just because we have pulled our troops out of an area. It does not melt into the woodwork, never to be seen again. On the contrary, they will go in the offensive and hit us in new and improved ways.

Something tells me it may be time to find a mountain top, build a cabin and hide.
