Coalition of the Lukewarm

I think this very odd Libyan campaign that we’re immersed in will soon reveal the spiritual dangers of a half-hearted war. Obama has ceded leadership to NATO. Furthermore, just look at NATO's half-baked bombing campaign to stop Gadhafi --all in the name of preventing civilian deaths! Spiritual lesson: there is no good outcome when your leadership is lukewarm. This is Obama's Coalition of the Lukewarm.

Still a viable organization?

I think at some point the U.S. is going to have to decide whether NATO is still a viable organization, and worth saving, now that it is on the verge of being utterly humiliated in Libya. (Military history majors, pay attention.)

We just don't know...

...was the Libya bombing designed to stop the civilian killings, or to help the rebels, or perhaps to remove Qaddafi, or was the bombing designed to aid the British and French who both have lots of oil interests in Libya? No one really knows as of this writing. Meanwhile, here's Captain U.N.

Land of the Pharaoh

There's rebellion in the land of the Pharaohs! Egypt's tyrant (Mubarak) finally became the target of all his subject's discontents. What we are witnessing in Egypt is a clash between reformers who want free elections and free markets and radicals who want to overthrow the Mubarak regime and install a violent Islamist government. History majors, pay attention.

Sweden

The Islamic death cult has struck again, this time in Sweden .... A Muslim homicide bomber killed himself in one of two explosions in central Stockholm last Saturday, wounding two people. :-( :-( :-(

Christian charity to Muslims

Did you hear? Seven million Pakistanis are in urgent need of aid after devastating floods from several weeks ago. And the United States Marine Corps has answered the call! Today, Marines are are providing emergency assistance and airlifts to those in need. What do you know? --more Christian charity to Muslim victims courtesy of the USMC! Osama bin Laden, pay attention.

President George W. Bush surprise-greeted the troops returning home from deployment yesterday, at DFW Airport; priceless!

Memorial Day query

Why so few Medals of Honor? ..... Despite its importance, --the Medal of Honor has been awarded only 6 times for service in Iraq and Afghanistan.

By contrast, 464 Medals of Honor were awarded during World War II, 133 during Korea, and 246 during the Vietnam War. Our military is just as courageous today as ever before. Something is very wrong here.

The stories of valor in Iraq/Afghanistan must be made public. (You only need to go to Borders bookstore and camp out in the history section to marvel at the books that are published practically every month on the courage of our boys in today's wars.)

There is something very wrong with our national leaders who are not recognizing the valor of our men with the Medal of Honor, --only 6?

Arizona pinata

Oh, sure, the prizes inside are indeed very real, --potential democrat voters! This is why democrats are sympathetic to Arizona's illegal aliens. *sigh* Mexican president Calderone, for his part, knows that his economy improves each time the millions of aliens send monies back to their families in Mexico. It's a terrific symbiotic relationship!

Uncivil, and rude; Mexican President Calderon certainly wore out his welcome in my country. *verybigsigh*

NYC car bomber

Sadly, it takes a lot for our Commander-in-Chief to admit that these terrorist attacks are indeed terror-attacks.

Behold: were it not for technical problems by Faisal Shahzad in NY (pictured), and were it not for the technical problems by the Nigerian panty-bomber (in the air last December 2009, remember him?), we’d now be talking about two successful terrorist attacks on Americans, in the last 6 months. /History majors, pay attention.

Missionary implications

On Christmas Day, a 23-year-old Nigerian named Umar Farouk Abdula tried to detonate a homemade bomb (in his underwear!) onboard a packed Northwest Airlines flight headed for Detroit. But because of a faulty detonator and brave passengers, the terrorist's knickers failed to go off.The security system failed miserably. The explosives he used are easily detected. What's more, Umar's father warned the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria about his boy. A simple screening process (that's already in place) would have prevented him from boarding any aircraft. But citizens on board saved the day! Many days later, President Obama finally announced that Umar has links to al Qaeda.

What took so long? Obama didn't need a top secret briefing to learn this. He could have picked up most of it on the Drudge Report, or merely by bothering to read the morning papers.

I could see the confusion on Obama's face during his leadership failure. Sadly, it was the look of someone who has been convinced for all these years that terrorism is something President Bush cooked up. Now that it is patently obvious that President Bush knew what he was talking about, Obama will need some time to regroup and figure out what to do. I don't think he knows anybody in his world who can help him. He must humble himself and finally learn from the experiences of the previous administration. This is not a good pattern. The president has failed to lead the country following two very serious attacks on our Homeland: 13 people murdered at Fort Hood, Texas, and another Muslim who tried to blow an American jetliner out of the sky by detonating a bomb in his underwear.

What's worse is that this terrorist is now lawyered up and has the right to remain silent; this, a present from Obama himself!

Had Umar been spotted getting trained in Yemen he would have had an encounter with a Hellfire missile. Instead he was caught in the air while attempting to kill several hundred innocent people, and now his 'rights' are read to him! These rights were given to him by President Obama. *sigh*

The missionary implications for my wife and I are escalating. First, the shoe-bomber — remember him? — Richard Reid, was found with explosives in his shoe; as a result the deaconess and I have to trod barefoot through airport security. But wait! --after explosive underwear are uncovered, how will we now be treated by airport security? And what happens when the first exploding suppository occurs?

The implications are very serious indeed. Sadly, I'm too embarrassed to discuss these missionary implications --with my own pastor!

"Mr. Obregon, place your knickers on the conveyor and step away from the machine" ...... Oh, the humanity!

Afghanistan

Did you hear? —50 Afghans who are drug traffickers with ties to the Taliban have been placed on a Pentagon target list to be killed or captured. What?!!

President Bush's third term!

Wrong on life's big decisions

It's amazing to behold. President Barak Obama has a knack for getting all of life's big decisions wrong. Two weeks ago, he refused to meddle in a country where peaceful demonstrators were getting shot dead by a dictatorship (Iran).

BO explained that he didn't want to choose sides.

Today, however, he is eager to meddle on behalf of the Honduran president, i.e., BO is annoyed that the Honduran people have the nerve to hold their president to the rule of their Constitution.

Information without reporters

In the world of electronic communication, it's hard to overstate how much has changed recently (Twitter, Facebook, et al). Now even Iran's dictatorship can't control the flow of information out of its country—even after it expelled reporters!

This is not to say that reporters are superfluous, but in a pinch, we seem to be able to make do with out them! /Geo_naturalexponent™

Axis of evil

North Korea vows to weaponize its plutonium; indeed, NoKo is warning the world of nuclear war. Will we listen?
