When Dogan, the American youth murdered by the knuckle dragging Israeli goon squad that attacked the flotilla bringing aid to the Palestinians imprisoned in Gaza there was very little commotion here in the States if any over Dogan’s death. Rather his death was downplayed by the news media which kept referring to him as Turkish though he was born right here in the shining citadel on a hill.
Of course, hardly anyone has opened their yappers over the expansion of the wars in the Middle East under president Slowbamavitch the newest and bestest wonder of the ages. In fact the only thing that has gotten what appears to be white affluent lefties to do anything is their economic decline in our new gilded age. Meanwhile over in Pakistan, a much poorer nation than the U.S., people are protesting what appears to be a deliberate attack that ended up murdering a reported twenty four Pakistan Soldiers. The obvious conclusion is that while our mighty leaders have in essence murdered thousands of American troops by sending them to their deaths for political gain and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi and Afghans the great liberal holier than thou schmucks that call themselves progressives are as phony as a two dollar bill while the people of the Middle East appear to be far less robotic and far more human.
People who ought to know better continue to tell you that we are leaving Iraq. We. Are. Not. Leaving. Iraq. We. Are. Not. Leaving. Afghanistan. These are simple facts to keep in mind as the blizzard of bullshit and propaganda coming from the White House and the news media buries reality. Speaking of reality while Pakistan says that a simple apology isn’t enough for the murder of twenty four of their soldiers Obama has said that he will not apologize “formally” for their deaths until the “investigation” into what happened has concluded.
So, what did happen? The U.S. insists that the attack on Pakistan soil was not deliberate. Pakistan insists that it could be nothing but deliberate. The news media has been useless as always with conflicting reports, bad reporting, incompetent reporting, and slanted reporting. This leaves us in the position of guessing. If we consider the belligerent nature of the Obama administration towards most of the rest of the world and that Pakistan is an unlikely partner in the War On Terror that the Western powers are using as a supply route to their Afghan War it may just be Obama’s way of slapping the brown people down just to remind them who is boss. Still, the result has been that Pakistan has closed those supply routes defeating such strong arm tactics by the United States. This merely raises another question which would be, is Obama just incompetent when it comes to bullying the brown people? I hardly think so. We are told that we are leaving Iraq yet Obama is leaving thousands of mercenaries, many of them former U.S. soldiers inside of Iraq while he will be shifting thousands of troops to Kuwait, just in case you understand. A promise to leave Afghanistan in 2014 is just like all of Obama’s promises which is to say more worthless than a plug nickel and I would be willing to bet that if you asked most Americans they would say we are leaving Iraq. Who is smart and who is stupid here? Obama is a slick manipulator and Americans are easily manipulated.
In the end the Pakistan government is between a rock and a hard place. Addicted to American moolah they don’t want to cut off the money spigot but the citizens of Pakistan seem to be largely anti-American and with good cause. So why not a little dog and pony show? The Americans kill some Pakistan troops and since troops are nothing but cannon fodder for national leaders the Pakistan government could hardly care but it gives them an opportunity to make a show of standing up to the Americans even while collecting money from them. The Pakistan civilians demonstrate, but not against the Pakistan government rather against the Americans. It could actually be a win-win situation for both governments while the masses have been merely manipulated again.
