Bush 41 and Bush 43 give historical father-son presidential interview
No matter what the opinions people have about President George W. Bush and, there are plenty out there, however, there are not many who would argue the fact the he was a bold president of great consequence. If history is kind, or the future for that matter, he may be one of just a very few American Presidents who has actually reshaped history with a possibility of leaving a long and unique identifiable legacy. That all depends on the successes in Afghanistan and Iraq years from now of course. In time, history can judge if his vision was right, or if his ideals got the better of him. Only time will tell, but the events waiting in the future are impossible to know now. Continue reading
Will Israel move into Gaza?
It appears that Israel had long term goals and an end game in mind when they started their offensive against Hamas December 27. Despite an outcry and protests to end the offensive, Israel has pushed decisively, with great planning into Gaza, and on Sunday, finally reached Gaza city. Now it is believed that Hamas is buckling from the constant pounding and fighting they have sustained for the past 16 days. Israel’s prime minister, Ehud Olmert, told the nation on Sunday that the army was “getting close to achieving the goals it set for itself,” but that “more patience, determination and effort are still demanded.” Sending a clear signal that Israel is prepared for a continued offensive against Hamas and is looking to finish them militarily. The Prime Minister said that the nation “must not miss out, at the last moment, on what has been achieved through an unprecedented national effort.” Continue reading

Venezuela’s revolutionless leader is forced to find other ways to relevancy
Things are not going so good in the socialist paradise of Venezuela these days. There are signs showing that Chavez is feeling the pinch of the falling oil prices. He used the windfall profits from surging prices to give away treats and … Continue reading
Why the rush towards cease fire? — Give war a chance.
Once before, something even better than a cease fire was tried. All the people of Gaza wanted was to be left alone and exist as a sovereign nation everyone was told. So Israel agreed to the evacuation of Gaza. The best and brightest minds all concluded that if the Israelites just left Gaza it would marginalize Islamist appeal by giving the Palestinians what they want–a state and a future. That was tried in 2005. It was hailed as a major concession for the wonderful price of peace. Continue reading

Declining Europe poses a threat to the West and the U.S.
One day Europe woke up and realized they hate themselves. The whole population has collectively been stricken with amnesia. At such a lost, the people of Europe are unable grasp why they are able to enjoy their cities, their coasts, their forest and their freedoms. They only know that they have them. Before this debilitating affliction stripped them of their memory, an appreciation for their history, and their immeasurable legacy they left on their world, Europe was a place of importance — a place of innovation. The entire balance of power in the whole world was shared between just a few countries there. Now, they all share ownership of the universe’s largest living museum — and a cold, dusty, and soulless one at that. Continue reading

China’s Decline and its Dangers in 09
The Great Dragon of the East that proved to the world that a autocratic, one party system could rival and, in deed, threaten to make the great capitalist countries of the West obsolete in due time. The world witnessed as the Communist Party of China took a land of one billion people, mired in poverty, and transformed it into a major economic player in world affairs. China provided for many political scientist, economist, and much to the enjoyment of socialist every where, that there is still relevance for autocratic rule in the twenty-first century. In their system, all the burdens of democracy and competing interest is replaced by one single vision and direction backed by a strong central party. Continue reading

Is the West’s reaction to terrorism “Disproportional?”
It is alarming to, say the least, when the West is presented with a clear case of lawlessness and terror directed at a civilian population it can not seem to agree if that government has the right to defend them. Such is the case in Israel. The people of Gaza elected Hamas to head their government. An organization that was created, designed, and operates for the death of Israel as a nation. In other words, a radical Islamic terrorist organization. True to their word they have created war with Israel by targeting its citizens with rockets. Now, Israel is responding with reciprocal force and, then, does the situation turn criminal. Continue reading

Israel looks to play game changer in its war with Hamas
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are ramped up in away that has not been seen since 2006 and maybe before that. The IDF’s current military operations against Hamas are offering all the conditions for a much larger picture in terms of military action and a political statement in the region. With well over several hundred air sorties missions flown and that many targets engaged; plus, the IDF has deployed the Mediterranean’s strongest navy off of the Gaza strip in support, which conducted more than 50 attacks on Thursday. Hamas has no defense against a modern military and especially against a country with the will to use it. Lessons were learned against Hizballah during 2006′s bloody and inconclusive stalemate that proved to legitimize the extremist party and strengthen them politically, which led to increased support from Syria and Iran. The Israeli leadership is hoping this conflict leads to a game changer in Gaza and will eliminate Hamas as threat to their security and destroy them politically in Gaza. Continue reading
