American Thinker: Disconfirmations Disconfirmed: Saddam Had Nuke Program (Updated)

The media have been telling us for years that Saddam had no WMD, so “Bush’s War”: was based on a “lie.” And those who believed Saddam did have WMD or WMD programs were delusional or worse.

But today, on July 6, 2008, the Associated Press reports that

* Saddam Hussein had a nuclear program
* At the Tuwaitha nuclear complex just south of Baghdad
* Which included 550 metric tons (over 1.2 million pounds) of “yellowcake”, or concentrated uranium
* And multiple devices that could be used in a nuclear weapon.

Solution to the immediate oil crises

No Gravatar

I have been hearing that there is no reason to pump more oil for some time now. If plenty of oil is being pumped but everyone is cutting back because of the price where is the oil? You can only store so much oil and then you would have to stop pumping but no one is doing that so obviously greed is the reason that OPEC does not want to increase production. They are lying through their teeth.

I would be past asking OPEC and Saudi Arabia to pump more oil. Its time the world told them they will pump more oil until the price gets down to around $50 a barrel or OPEC is going to be internationally outlawed as the criminal cartel it is.

OPEC is bring the world to an economic crises point and if the big powers don’t do something rather quickly it is going to be too late.

I have a suggestion. Everyone should open up their national oil reserves right now and at the same time the U.S. should take care of the Iranian nuclear and military threat. After this threat is out of the way there will be no future oil speculation because of the Iranian threat. Then we should go all out to help Iraq gear up their oil producing capability and also tell Saudi Arabia that they will fill the gap or they risk dire consequences.

OPEC sees no need to pump more after price surge | Reuters

DUBAI (Reuters) - OPEC members saw no need on Sunday to pump more oil in response to last week’s double-digit surge in oil prices to over $139 a barrel that top exporter Saudi Arabia described as unjustified.

Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia is the only OPEC member with capacity to boost output quickly and significantly.

But Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi and his Pakistani counterpart met on Sunday and agreed that the price rise was unjustified and unrelated to market fundamentals, the official Saudi Press Agency reported.

“The increase of the oil prices is becoming a real threat to the worldwide economy,” Germany’s Economy Minister Michael Glos told Reuters.

$150 OIL?

OPEC blames factors beyond its control, including speculation and international political tension, for the price rises. Those factors could take prices even higher soon, said Iran’s OPEC representative Muhammad Ali Khatibi.

“I forecast that by the end of summer the price of oil will reach $150 a barrel,” Mohammad Ali Khatibi was quoted as saying by Iran’s state broadcaster.

General national insanity

No Gravatar

Democrats represent the majority of Americans so what does that say about national sanity? It is obvious to me that the leadership of neither party have sane answers on many issues but who elects them?

The Democrats are insane

The popular definition of insanity is making the same mistake over and over again expecting a different result.

By this definition, the Democratic Party leadership is insane.

Three examples:

High gas prices: The Democrats’ answer? A back-to-the-glorious-70s Jimmy Carter freeze in the dark replay with a global warming twist.

Health insurance availability and cost: The Democrats’ answer? A back-to-the-90s Hillary Clinton government seizure of the whole health care system.

War in Iraq: The Democrats’ plan? Declare defeat on the brink of success to relive the glory days of Vietnam.

Read on and weep for the great Democratic Party

The non lethal ray gun that is designed to be deadly.

No Gravatar

Apparently that story you heard on 60 Minutes about the military just producing a non lethal ray gun is disinformation. The weapons were designed to be quite lethal. They were developed five years ago and they could have been used in Iraq to save troops lives. However, some in the administration think it would not be politically correct to use such a powerful weapon against those trying to kill our people. So we get lies about why the weapon were developed and they soft shoe it as a not lethal weapon. So our boys do not get to use it but instead many of them get to die.

FrontPage Magazine

FP: Why did 60 Minutes provide this information to the country without double checking it? They are putting our soldiers’ lives in greater danger, no?Gaubatz: I want to believe Ms. Mary Walsh had good intentions and believed the information she was being provided was accurate. Ms. Walsh knows the 60 Minutes story is now false and Pentagon officials lied to her. The big question is rather: will 60 Minutes admit they made a huge mistake which continues to put our soldier’s lives in danger everyday. Each day that goes by and another soldier dies should weigh heavily on every member of 60 Minutes. Each mother who is handed a letter from a Pentagon official advising their son or daughter was killed in Iraq, should write a letter to Mary Walsh and ask her how she can continue not to reveal the truth.

I can sleep easy at night because I have always brought out the truth in regards to issues in Iraq. Can Mary Walsh, David Martin (60 Minutes), and the Pentagon officials?

From Basra to Bethlehem to Beit El

No Gravatar

Our World: From Basra to Bethlehem to Beit El Jerusalem Post

BRITAIN’S foolish and dangerous actions in Basra are strikingly similar to the international community’s policies regarding the Palestinian Authority generally and the PA’s security services specifically. And whereas in Iraq there is some chance that the wreck the British have made of Basra can be fixed by the Iraqi military and the US forces in the country, there is no countervailing force to curb the adverse impacts of the international community’s treatment of the corrupt, terror supporting, jihadist Palestinian security forces. This is the case because the Israeli government, which is the only countervailing force that could repair the damage, is exacerbating the problem.

Since the PA and its security forces were formed in 1994, they have never once taken serious action against the terror infrastructure in either Judea and Samaria or Gaza. Indeed, the PA and its security services played a central role in building those infrastructures of terror. Beyond that, since 1996, every single time that the PA’s security services have been forced to choose between Israel and the terrorists, they have joined ranks with the terrorists to attack Israel.
In spite of this fact, yesterday representatives of 90 states and organizations convened in Paris and pledged to give the PA $5.6 billion over the next three years. The PA will receive some $1.7 billion next year - $1.2 billion of which will go to funding the PA budget. Most of that money will be spent paying the salaries, arming and training the PA security forces.

The ‘Concerned Local Citizens’ Program Grows into a Bona-Fide Phenomenon

No Gravatar

The ‘Concerned Local Citizens’ Program Grows into a Bona-Fide Phenomenon - HUMAN EVENTS: “Called “basically a thumb in the eye of the Maliki government that won’t get its [act] together” by one American officer, the Concerned Local Citizens program puts ground-level security in the hands of the individual tribes and groups who need it most. Under the program’s coalition-crafted guidelines, members of individual tribes are allowed to arm themselves and to conduct their own security operations and patrols, provided that, among other requirements, they submit to the authority of Coalition and Iraqi Security forces.
The main premise behind the Concerned Local Citizens program is simply the belief that Iraqis as a whole oppose the militias and terrorist groups that have plagued Iraq for the last several years — and that citizen empowerment, backed by the coalition, will lead to a rejection of the forces that terrorize the civilian population in a given area.”

We need to implement that same concept in our own inner cities.

Minister insists Britain did not ‘flee’ Basra as Al Qaeda No 2 celebrates

Minister insists Britain did not ‘flee’ Basra as Al Qaeda No 2 celebrates the Daily Mail: “Defence Minister Bob Ainsworth today insisted ‘We have not been forced to retreat’ from Basra after the Al Qaeda deputy celebrated the British decision ‘to flee’.”

Actually you did flee Iraq. When you announced you would pull out your troops because you thought Iraq was a lost cause you did exactly that. The only reason there is a chance of success in Iraq is because the US would not leave and allow the Islamics to take over Iraq. The British politicians were like all the liberals who just planned to cut and run.

Bill Clinton Tells Iowans: I ‘Opposed Iraq’ From Start

No Gravatar

FOXNews.com - Bill Clinton Tells Iowans: I ‘Opposed Iraq’ From Start - Politics Republican Party Democratic Party Political Spectrum
MUSCATINE, Iowa — Showing inconsistency on an issue that has dogged his wife, former President Bill Clinton told Iowa Democrats on Tuesday that he “opposed (war in) Iraq from the beginning.”
Clinton was in Iowa on the campaign trail for his wife, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton.
On Iraq, he told the crowd that wealthy people like he and his wife should pay more taxes in times of war. “Even though I approved of Afghanistan and opposed Iraq from the beginning, I still resent that I was not asked or given the opportunity to support those soldiers,” Clinton said”

Do we really want four more years of the Clinton’s lying to our face? Apart from his lie about his position on Iraq his statement that he was not given the opportunity to support those soldiers is absurd. Must government force you to pay higher taxes if you think you are not paying enough? Anyone, I repeat anyone can pay more taxes if they want to. The government will not refuse your contributions so please spare us the sanctimonious crap about not being taxed enough. Who says you cannot use your money for the benefit of mankind? Must government force you to do what is right?

Dealing with the real issue of Islamofascism

No Gravatar

Wider Iranian threat is feared - Los Angeles Times “Wider Iranian threat is feared template_bas template_bas Many U.S. officials believe small conflicts on the ground or at sea are potentially riskier than a nuclear program.”

Frankly, we need to quit playing these stupid silly fantasy games made up in the minds of naive people in the State depart. Either deal with Islamofascism now throughout the world or do what Ron Paul says and go home and let the rest of the world worry about it. Let those that live in the area deal with their own problems. They will then certainly soon use their weapons on themselves. Israel will have the Iranian nuclear threat against them settled by noon. Pakistan will either deal with their terrorists or India will.

This tired game where we pretend that we can solve irrational issues of hate by ratcheting up diplomatic pressures and appeasement has no basics in reality. Neither does thinking they we can make the Middle East in our own image. It is only buying them more time to set up new Islamofascism alliances and to get backing from Russia and China. Without dealing with Islamofascism It does not even matter what we do in the Middle East because unless Islamofascism is crushed throughout the world and rejected by Islam the violent agenda is only going to spread to Europe and beyond.

Iraq dam failure could kill up to 500,000

No Gravatar

Iraq dam failure could kill up to 500,000 - Washington Post - MSNBC.com: “Even in a country gripped by daily bloodshed, the possibility of a catastrophic failure of the Mosul Dam has alarmed American officials, who have concluded that it could lead to as many as 500,000 civilian deaths by drowning Mosul under 65 feet of water and parts of Baghdad under 15 feet, said Abdulkhalik Thanoon Ayoub, the dam manager. ‘The Mosul dam is judged to have an unacceptable annual failure probability,’ in the dry wording of an Army Corps of Engineers draft report.”

The American engineers say the dam could collapse at any moment and the Iraqi’s say the dam is still safe. So Iraq officials are betting the lives of thousands of their people and whole cities against the advise of the best civil engineers in the world. Talk about playing craps with other peoples money. Any other dam in the world in this condition would have the lake drawn down. I am sure if the Iraqi’s lose their bet and the dam fails they will just blame it all on the United States.

Abizaid: World could abide nuclear Iran

No Gravatar

Abizaid: World could abide nuclear Iran - Yahoo! News: “John Abizaid, the retired Army general who headed Central Command for nearly four years, said he was confident that if Iran gained nuclear arms, the United States could deter it from using them. ‘Iran is not a suicide nation,’ he said. ‘I mean, they may have some people in charge that don’t appear to be rational, but I doubt that the Iranians intend to attack us with a nuclear weapon.’ The Iranians are aware, he said, that the United States has a far superior military capability.”

We already have been told by the leaders of Iran what they believe and what they will do with nuclear weapon if they obtain them. Martyrs are not going to be deterred by the US. It is not a matter of what the Iranian people want, it is what those who control the nukes in that nation will do. It is also not a matter of what the Iranians could do to the United States, although an EMP would be possible and disastrous for the US. Iran could also give nuclear devices to terrorists.

Israel is not going to allow Iran to have nukes in any case, and if Iran somehow got nukes, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and others will also develop them. Is that what you want in the Middle East? Just because we had to live with those who had nukes in the past does not mean that we should not prevent new threats against civilization in the future when we have that ability. The US and Russian almost used nukes against each other as did India and Pakistan. China still threatens us with them and Russia is again emerging as a threat. Now you wish to add Iran to the mix, a nation controlled by wacko religious nut cases?

There is only one sane course of action and that is to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons. That could be done in one week. Sure, the world could abide nuclear Iran until they used them but then it would be a little too late. Its amazing that we had people who think like Abizaid leading our military. It is more amazing that anyone would give any credence to what he said.

Giuliani: Clinton Spewing ‘Political Venom’ on Iraq

Political Radar: Giuliani: Clinton Spewing ‘Political Venom’ on Iraq
“Despite what I view is your rather extraordinary efforts in your testimony both yesterday and today,” said Clinton, “I think that the reports that you provide to us really require a willing suspension of disbelief.”

“Giuliani accused Clinton of “playing into” a MoveOn.org ad that ran in the New York Times Monday that read: “General Petraeus or General Betray Us?”
After co-host Spiff Carner said, “She’s trying to tell us that she knows more about the whole situation than he does,” Giuliani shot back by saying, “Doesn’t it also sound like she’s also saying that he isn’t telling the truth?”

“I really do think to accuse a general of the ‘willing suspension of disbelief,’ particular in the atmosphere that Moveon.org has created with these terrible attacks, I don’t know, I mean I think that’s not the way in a responsible way to go about , you know, forging the foreign policy of the United States and the military policy of the United States,” said Giuliani. “I think this name calling, you know, saying to people, ‘willing suspension of disbelief,’ and then saying the horrible thing they said about betrayal — that is the last thing we need right now.”

Hillary did not break with Moveon.org on this issue. She made her bed and now she must lay in it. To accuse a top general of deception during war time could turn out to be the biggest mistake of her political career.

Chuck Baldwin’s Spin on the War on Terrorism Six Years Later

No Gravatar

Chuck Baldwin — 9/11, Six Years Later: “Yet, President Bush would have us believe that he is fighting a ‘war on terrorism’ by invading Iraq, a country that had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11. However, the war in Iraq has done little to fight terrorism, and has done much to assist it.

Instead of invading a country with no ties to 9/11, we should have followed Ron Paul’s advice. Congress should have passed H.R. 3076, the September 11 Marque and Reprisal Act of 2001, and sent our forces on a specific and narrow mission to take out bin Laden and al-Qaeda.

Chuck Baldwin has a short memory. We did not invade Iraq to fight against the same terrorists who carried out the 9/11 attack. Those who say this are revising history for their own propaganda. We went into Iraq to take out Saddam and his butchers who were terrorists of another type. We went in because all intelligence told us they had WMD capabilities. Almost all Americans were behind this US action.

Even in hindsight we had to invade. If Bush did nothing against Iraq and Saddam had still been in power at the next national election Americans would have dumped Bush and elected someone who would invade Iraq. You probably would have been all for it as well.

If Saddam were still in Iraq today the problems in the Middle East would be worse not better. The terror threat to the US and Israel would be worse not better.

As a Christian, I do not know why you cannot understand that the root evil is Islamofascism and it must be defeated. It does not matter what country the Fascists reside in. Islamofascism must be defeated as an ideology throughout the world or we will have a clash of civilizations that will make World War II look like a small pilot project.

We made some huge mistakes in Iraq just after the invasion and we are paying for those mistakes but the invasion was justified as almost all Americans agreed at the time.

Since you do not seem to know it, we have had a mission to take out Bin Laden and al-Qaeda ever since 9/11. Just passing a bill in Congress does not accomplish this task. If you are implying we can just invade Pakistan without their permission it would make the war in Iraq seem mild in comparison.

It is easy for you to sit there and second guess and bad mouth our elected national leaders with your hindsight but who in the world certified you as an expect on foreign affairs?

You should be preaching the gospel you were trained to preach instead of just pandering to hindsighters, conspiracy nuts and malcontents and preaching a false gospel. Is this what you preach on Sunday?

A Ron Paul epiphany or a world epitaph?

No Gravatar

WorldNetDaily: The Ron Paul epiphany: “Between now and November 2008, many Americans will experience the Ron Paul epiphany, in which the scales will fall from their eyes, and they will suddenly realize that they do not want the nation to continue in the direction that George Bush, Hillary Clinton, Fred Thompson, Hussein Osama and Rudy McRomney all intend on taking it. At this point, a 1976 scenario looks far more likely than a 1980 one, but then, few pundits thought Ron Paul would still require consideration at this point in the campaign.

The choice is simple. If you want to live under an EU-style regime that is intent on invading and occupying other countries in the name of democracy for the forseeable future, vote for any of the so-called major candidates. It doesn’t matter which one. There is no significant difference between President Bush and Sen. Clinton, or between Sen. Thompson and Sen. Obama. If, on the other hand, you wish to live in a nation where the United States government is governed by the Constitution, you had better support Ron Paul. This may be your only opportunity, for it is entirely possible that this will be the last time such a choice is presented to you. “

Even though what you say is almost true if you think scales are going to fall off of everyone’s eyes between now and November 2008 you are delusional.

Perhaps the scales will fall off of some eyes after the Democrats control all branches of government but then it will be two late to save the Union.

Ron Paul would be the ideal president if we had never globalized, got in debt, went off gold, became the world’s military savior etc…but we did. Someone like Ron Paul could be a great president after we have a major depression and defeat Islamofacsim.

If we elect Dr. Ron Paul now even though much of what he says is true his polices would just speed our demise. He could not get anything through congress. His foreign policy would just embolden Islamofascism and Israel and Europe would become their objectives. We could just sit back and watch while Rome burns? Not a chance. It would bring a major world war of civilizations sooner than our current course.

Iran’s Big Plans

No Gravatar

American Thinker: Iran’s Big Plans: “Iran, quite simply, seeks regional hegemony and their oft-stated second goal of the utter destruction of Israel, along with every one of its citizens. Iraq is simply the first battleground in a much larger war not only for the Middle East, but for the West as well. Along with this larger war (as has been repeatedly promised by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad himself) a second Holocaust is coming. To all of those who promised ‘never again’: wake up now - it is coming. It has already begun in Iraq, and will only grow from there. It is not too late to stop it; however, if the West does not overcome its complacency in the very near future, then it may not be too long before it is in fact too late. “

The Case for a Shah of Iraq - Bruce Walker - Aug 18, 07: “The reality is that a Shah of Iraq would be at least as legitimate as President Assad or President Mubarak, the rulers for life of Syria and Egypt, (and in the case of Assad, the heir to the throne of the Presidency of Syria) and much more legitimate that Kim Jong Il, who inherited his throne as “Dear Leader” of North Korea. “

I agree and wrote about it before. They need a strongman. They are not civilized enough for democratic rule.

500 people may have died in worst terror attack in Iraq

Iraq bombs: 500 die in worst terror attack - Telegraph: “The number of confirmed dead was 175, with more than 300 injured and 600 made homeless. But medics speculated that the real toll could be closer to 500. Bodies covered by blankets could be seen laid in the street and outside a municipal building. Rescuers are still digging through the rubble of the bomb-flattened clay-built homes in scenes reminiscent of an earthquake zone. But Major Rodger Lemons, operations officer for a US brigade in the area, which is near the city of Mosul, said that rescue efforts are winding down. ‘My assessment is there’s probably no one left alive in the rubble,’ he said. ‘We’ve transitioned through to a clean-up phase.’ The US military has said the ‘al-Qa’eda in Iraq’ group is the prime suspect for the attack on the Yazidis, seen by Sunni Muslim militants as infidels. “

These terrorists are possessed by demons. No human of free will would do this.

Allow Iraq to be Talibanized?

No Gravatar

FrontPage Magazine: “To say that the attempt to Talibanize Iraq would not be happening at all if coalition forces were not present is to make two unsafe assumptions and one possibly suicidal one. The first assumption is that the vultures would never have gathered to feast on the decaying cadaver of the Saddamist state, a state that was in a process of implosion well before 2003. All our experience of countries like Somalia and Sudan, and indeed of Afghanistan, argues that such an assumption is idiotic. It is in the absence of international attention that such nightmarish abnormalities flourish.

The second assumption is that the harder we fight them, the more such cancers metastasize. This appears to be contradicted by all the experience of Iraq. Fallujah or Baqubah might already have become the centers of an ultra-Taliban ministate, as they at one time threatened to do, whereas now not only have thousands of AQM goons been killed but local opinion appears to have shifted decisively against them and their methods.

The third assumption, deriving from the first two, would be that if coalition forces withdrew, the AQM gangsters would lose their raison d’être and have nothing left to fight for. I think I shall just leave that assumption lying where it belongs: on the damp floor of whatever asylum it is where foolish and wishful opinions find their eventual home.”

Comptroller general warns of the fall of the US

No Gravatar

FT.com / World - Learn from the fall of Rome, US warned
David Walker, comptroller general of the US, issued the unusually downbeat assessment of his country’s future in a report that lays out what he called “chilling long-term simulations”.
These include “dramatic” tax rises, slashed government services and the large-scale dumping by foreign governments of holdings of US debt.

“With the looming retirement of baby boomers, spiralling healthcare costs, plummeting savings rates and increasing reliance on foreign lenders, we face unprecedented fiscal risks,” said Mr Walker, a former senior executive at PwC auditing firm.
Current US policy on education, energy, the environment, immigration and Iraq also was on an “unsustainable path”.
“Our very prosperity is placing greater demands on our physical infrastructure. Billions of dollars will be needed to modernise everything from highways and airports to water and sewage systems. The recent bridge collapse in Minneapolis was a sobering wake-up call.”
Mr Walker said he would offer to brief the would-be presidential candidates next spring.

Walker has told this to everyone in high government so it is not like they do not know about the grave financial situation but very few give a damn.

Bush War Adviser Says Draft Worth a Look

No Gravatar

Bush War Adviser Says Draft Worth a Look: “WASHINGTON (AP) - Frequent tours for U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan have stressed the all-volunteer force and made it worth considering a return to a military draft, President Bush’s new war adviser said Friday. ‘I think it makes sense to certainly consider it,’ Army Lt. Gen. Douglas Lute said in an interview with National Public Radio’s ‘All Things Considered.’ ‘And I can tell you, this has always been an option on the table. “

You cannot have a draft in an unpopular war any more. Have you people learned nothing from Vietnam? Rebellion in people would overturn the government and a draft would destroy the professionalism of the military. So consider it if that is what you really want to do and you will be much like Charles Randgel. On the other hand, if there were a nuclear attack on a city and a war against forces in Pakistan and radical Islam everywhere became necessary because of it then their might be enough support for a draft. Expecting a draft to be possible among our young under conditions in the country today is quite delusional.

Al Maliki in bed with the enemy

No Gravatar

WorldNetDaily: Al Maliki in bed with the enemy: “So, Al Maliki is in Iran. What will he accomplish? Will he send the signal that he welcomes Iran’s continued interference in Iraq? Will he slyly indicate to the Iranians that he would like their help in thwarting the plan to rid his country of the terrorists and insurgents that arrive daily from Iran and from Syria? Exactly what is it that Nouri al Maliki hopes to accomplish with these overtures to the mad mullahs of Tehran and their anointed leader, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?”

The problem is that we had elections in Iraq way to soon. The US administration put on this facade of democracy for world consumption. Instead, we should have put a strong man in power and after he secured the country maybe there could be increased democratic rule. I would think that the strong man will arise anyways and that is what some of this infighting is all about. I doubt if Al Maliki is that man and I doubt if he will be around much longer.

The Arsenal of the Iraq Insurgency: It’s made in China.

The Arsenal of the Iraq Insurgency: It’s made in China.: “One might wonder why Beijing, as a matter of policy, would sell weapons to Iran for the clear purpose of killing American soldiers. ‘There is a great shortfall in our understanding of China’s intentions,’ said Lawless of China’s overall military policies, and ‘when you don’t know why they are doing it, it is pretty damn threatening. . . . They leave us no choice but to assume the worst.’

Why China is ‘doing it’ need not be a mystery. In 2004, Beijing’s top America analyst, Wang Jisi, noted, ‘The facts have proven that it is beneficial for our international environment to have the United States militarily and diplomatically deeply sunk in the Mideast to the extent that it can hardly extricate itself.’ It is sobering to consider that China’s small-arms proliferation behavior since then suggests that this principle is indeed guiding Chinese foreign policy.”

Yet, we keep sucking up to the Chinese.

Disaster looms as ‘Saddam dam’ struggles to hold back the Tigris

Disaster looms as ‘Saddam dam’ struggles to hold back the Tigris - Independent Online Edition > Middle East: “As world attention focuses on the daily slaughter in Iraq, a devastating disaster is impending in the north of the country, where the wall of a dam holding back the Tigris river north of Mosul city is in danger of imminent collapse.
‘It could go at any minute,’ says a senior aid worker who has knowledge of the struggle by US and Iraqi engineers to save the dam. ‘The potential for disaster is very great.’
If the dam does fail, a wall of water will sweep into Mosul, Iraq’s third largest city with a population of 1.7 million, 20 miles to the south. Experts say the flood waters could destroy 70 per cent of Mosul and inflict heavy damage 190 miles downstream along the Tigris.”

The next major Iraq disaster is now imminent.

Chuck Baldwin’s "Appeal To My Fellow Christians" is rejected

No Gravatar

cChuck Baldwin — An Appeal To My Fellow Christians
“Yet most of my fellow believers who say we have no Christian duty to oppose President Bush as he strips us of our liberties, defies our Constitution, and makes a mockery of justice, will turn around and shout the loudest in support of a war against a nation that had nothing to do with 9/11 and did not even pose a legitimate or imminent threat to our country. Besides, even if it did, using the same logic of many Christians, “It is part of prophecy; there is nothing we can do about it.”

The reason many will not support Pastor Baldwin is because of statements like he made above. Pastor Baldwin buys into every conspiracy theory in the book and then he chides Christians for not supporting him in his rebellion against government authority.

President Bush is not stripping us of our liberties or defying our Constitution or making a mockery of justice. If anyone is doing that it is the godless humanist socialist far Left. However, the American people are ultimately to blame for what happens to them. There is no one in office that was not elected into office or appointed by someone who was elected into office. There is no one in authority that who was not given that position by God. The leaders of this country reflect the morality of this country. If you really want to change America to morality there is only one way to do that. Convert them to true Christianity.

True Christianity is quite different from the Balwin agenda. True Christianity does not force human governments to conform, that is rebellion. True Christianity converts hearts one at a time to accept Jesus and to conform to the commandments of Jesus. That is, to love God and your neighbor as yourself.

Baldwin says the war in Iraq has nothing to do with 9/11 and was not a threat to our country. He is wrong. What is a threat to Israel is a threat to the whole world. Baldwin does not see the big picture but he expects Christians to see his little picture that displays fictional American pie.

Perhaps Baldwin and many others that post on this website ought to read what the New Testament says about submitting to government authorities set over them. They take a little truth from here and there and somehow fit them all into their grand satanic conspiracy plan. They somehow believe the US is the promised land and that it should stay separate from the world. I have news, it is not.

World government is inevitable as population increases on the earth. That does not mean that World government is evil. The Millennial reign of Jesus Christ will be a world government! Yeah, we know that the Antichrist will come to power and establish a world government before this but his world government can’t happen until God allows it and I sincerely doubt if God will allow any satanic conspiracy to upset His own timing. My Bible says that Satan is only granted power to rule the earth for only 3 1/2 years to deceive those who will not believe the truth. So who do you think is really ruling the earth?

Get back to preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ instead of preaching another gospel. There is plenty to say about the satanic conspiracy in the world to keep people from seeing the light of the gospel of Jesus Christ rather than to get caught up into governmental conspiracy speculations that is really telling Christians to build on the house of God with straw.

September is a critical month for al-Qaeda

No Gravatar

FrontPage Magazine: “If al-Qaeda does mount a major terrorist attack, or campaign of attacks, against the United States homeland, it would be an act of desperation. It would be a sign that the “surge” in Iraq is working, not only in a military sense but in a political sense, as Sunni and Shia tribal leaders are brought into the U.S. strategy of national building. If al-Qaeda is on the run, as many reports from the scene indicate, its leaders may decide to roll the iron dice in an attempt to win in Washington what has been lost in Baghdad. How Americans would interpret such terrorist actions, and react to them, would reveal to the world the state of the nation’s self-confidence and moral strength, the real determinants of effective power in world affairs.”

That why I think there will be an attempt in September to strike multiple targets in the US. If they do not get the desired results they could lose much influence. If they do carry out their desired objectives in the US it could backfire on them when the US takes stronger action against their strongholds. They can only make significant gains if they can manipulate the US to get out of Iraq or the US takes some other action that is equally as stupid.
