What’s on my mind today?

There are soldiers that have lost their lives for people that do not show any gratitude or respect for them. In countries that have asked for help, not only are some of the citizens guilty of this, but also government officials. In Afghanistan, leader Hamid Karzai is a great example of this.  The United States did not go to war in Afghanistan to protect him, but for their own reasons.  Nevertheless, they have spent countless billions trying to restore the nation and defend it from it's own Taliban extremists within.  Most of these countries it seems, want help in defending themselves against the Jihadists, but on their own terms only.  Most of these countries don’t want foreign troops on the ground.  At least not for long anyway.

These countries want help financially. They also want weapons but they don’t want troops on their land. The only recourse that comes to mind if we want to help them on their terms, would be to use drones or fighter jets to strike at targets strategically.  But then if a civilian is killed then they put up a fuss.  War is a dirty business and fighting terrorism is no different.  There are risks in fighting it, there are unfortunate casualties in fighting it.  But the alternative (giving up) is far worse of an option.

Some countries want to get help in getting the Jihadists out of their country, but then at the same time, it seems that they are protecting them by their own actions and words. President Karzai from Afghanistan can’t make up his mind about having some troops left in the country after most of the troops are pulled out. Does he think that the Jihadists will stop their rampage of murdering and torture just because the troops have left? By refusing to sign a deal with the U.S., it looks like he’s protecting the same people that are killing and torturing his people.

Pakistan, is another example.  How many years did they deny that Bin Laden was in their country? He was one of the worst Jihadists in the world. Pakistan was collecting aid from the United States all the while harboring the target the U.S. was after.  I guess it was a money maker for them to keep that up. 

Jihadists need to be eradicated, make no mistake.  Some countries just don't seem to realize the danger of dealing with jihadists with half measures.  Jihadists either make it a sport of killing or torturing people because of the radicals that have supplanted Muslim faith with their own way of showing their faith in God. I would also say some are doing it just because they want to kill and torture and are using religion as their excuse.  If that doesn't make a case for really fighting terrorism to some of these countries, then probably nothing will.

That’s my rant of the day.

Have a good day.

Pakistan

Those of us that keep up with the news from multiple sources, especially on this site dawn.com, are very aware of the complaints about the U.S. attacks from drones. If anyone has been reading the news on this site it’s easy to see that Pakistan is more or less a refuge for militants. Why is that? Is it because the Pakistan government in some ways protecting these militants? If they’re not then why are there so many militants taking refuge in that country? It seems to be a haven for them.

The killings that are done of Pakistan’s citizens by the militants should overshadow the killings done by drones. That is the reason why I can’t understand what all the complaints are all about. Their excuse is that some civilians get kill in those attacks. Yes no doubt that is true - some civilians do get killed. But that would be accidental. On the other hand, with the militants it’s not accidental; it’s done on purpose.

I have a solution but I don’t think that it would be too popular. My solution would be to leave these third world countries alone and let them go on about their business and to govern their countries as they see fit and if they want to do any trading with the western world so be it. If this was to happen and a Jihadist were still to kill the citizens, then if possible, find out from where this killer came from and go into that country shoot and blast everything in sight. Because we all know that the non-Jihadists will not try and stop a Jihadist, so therefore they would be just as guilty by not doing anything about it.

I think just the fact that they know no one will interfere in their country might stop a lot of killings done for no reason. I might be wrong but I think  there are two things that drive these jihadists to hate to the point of killings  (1) is the nations from the Western world trying to tell them how to run their country and (2) the biggest reason is their faith -- they would want everyone to believe in their faith which will never happen (I hope).

That’s my rant and opinions of the day

Pakistan.

Last week instead of going to Fox News, I thought I would go to this site www.Dawn.com to read some of their news. When the site opened, the first article I spotted was this article. Imran Khan’s demand for the shooting down of drones. Also in this same article it states that many Pakistanis are surprised over Imran Khan’s demand for striking down drones.

I realize that they are saying that drones do kill civilians, of course there would be a great chance of killing civilians and I agree with that. But if a house that was targeted next to another house or if there was someone other than known terrorist and who happens to be just a citizen but in the house where the terrorist was targeted then that so called citizens either is a friend of them or is an unknowing terrorist sympathizer. If that is the case then either they deserve the same treatment.

I don’t condone the killing of innocent people either, but the killings that are done by those terrorist of the Pakistanis citizens overshadows the killings being done by the drones. I can only think of two reasons why a person would want to stop something like the drone program. Is it really for the protection of the citizens or the protection of those terrorist to stop them from killing more citizens? When it was proven that drones did a lot of damage to the terrorist especially the leaders?

 I don’t think that stopping the drones will stop these terrorist in fact, it will encourage them to push for more to obtain what they want (worldwide Sharia law), and do away with all these unfaithful people that don’t believe in the same faith that they do. 

Those who seek to subvert Christianity are gaining ground here in Canada and the USA, but they are called atheist not Muslims. Only so far there was no mention of anyone getting killed or tortured for their belief. I guess give it time and it will come and I don’t think that time is too far away. In every country there are some people that have very sadistic minds and it only something like this gets them to come out of the closet.

That is my rant of the day.

 Have a good day and may God bless those poor lost Souls.

Was Bush a warmonger? The truth as I see it.

There were quite a number of countries that used to say that the United States had a war monger president George W Bush was the president of the country.  I don’t think that he was a warmonger. He was just showing that he really loved his country and would defend it at all costs. 

The Lion and the Lamb.

The lion is known as the king of the jungle and the lamb is known for being a gentle animal. The USA as far I’m concerned was more or less acting like a lion towards its enemies and the enemies feared the USA.  This was prior to president Obama.  But now those enemies more or less couldn’t care less about what the USA says or does because they are positive that the USA will never do anything to them because the USA has become the lamb of the world.

The USA now has a president that seems to want to be ending the wars but by trying to do this through  diplomacy while giving billions in aid to both friendly countries and potential enemies.

Pakistan is supposed to be a friendly country but the people are demonstrating every day against the USA tearing down the flag stomping it and burning it. Yet they receive millions in aid from the USA. The same is true in regards to Egypt. I was reading a report on Fox News that the President Morsi of Egypt was even calling the US President a liar and yet they get billions of dollars in aid. If this is supposed to be a friendly country towards the US, I wonder what it would mean if it was not friendly. 

I realize that by giving aid to some of these countries, they might change their view of the USA but according to what is reported on the things that are said and done in those countries against the USA, they can’t be trusted. Here is another example: in Afghanistan, NATO soldiers are training the Afghanistan soldiers to be able to defend their own country and yet some will turn and shoot the same people that are trying to help them. This is why I say you can’t trust them.

I realize that sometimes by trying to ignore these things and keep on giving aid, eventually it finally works. But that can only be true with people that are not corrupted with what they were brought up to believe in. I would say peace would be a good thing if it would change some of these people's way of thinking but since the USA has become the lamb of the world the enemies of the USA are quite happy to do whatever they want without any to fear of retaliation.

Maniacs

As I have mentioned before, some groups in the third world countries are complete maniacs (if you want to call them humans , that's your decision I think it's the wrong word). From what I read this morning, I am convinced I am correct in my judgement of them. 

In one of my previous posts,  I've written about some of the killings and torture that they do.

While reading the site Dawn.com which is a Pakistani website I see this little headline. “KABUL: An adolescent boy and a young girl have been beheaded in two separate incidents in Afghanistan, local officials and police said on Friday.”

This boy's brother was a police officer and this boy was beheaded as a warning to the police.  And the little 6 year old girl was killed for no reason. Now what crime if anything, can a little girl of 6 year old do to be beheaded?

I used to have 3 or 4 more sites from these countries that I would read news from.  But when my computer crashed,  I lost them.  But some of these sites wrote about things that went on  and the news stories are in a word, unbelievable. If I can ever find them again I will post them. Then you will actually read about some of the things that some of those groups do that a person or people.  These maniacs would not be considered as being normal instead they are just killers or sadists.

That’s my rant of the day .            

Aren’t we lucky?

Aren't we lucky to be living in a country of civilized people?

The reason I’m saying this-is because of what I read on a Pakistani web site this morning. The site is Dawn.com. Every morning I go to different web sites just to read the news from different parts of the world.  It is unbelievable what I read about the suffering that’s inflicted amongst the citizens of some of those countries by people that are suppose to be civilized human beings. 

Here is an example of what is written on the site I mentioned:

“Barber has eyes, lips, tongue mutilated over illicit relationship Yousaf Khan, 32, was kidnaped by seven members of a landowning family who gouged his eyes with a sharp knife before slitting his ears, nose, lips and tongue.” 

Te same thing could happen here as long as we have this multicultural system and it goes on unchecked. True, if they are caught our laws would be applied but the deed would already have been done. What about the killings of the daughters done by the Afia family? Yes they are in jail but where are their daughters? May they rest in peace.

In a sense those that follow that Sharia Law have been brought up to believe in it and that’s there way of life and they immigrate to this country and some of them think that that those laws apply here. The thing with this honour killing and disfiguring of  people for life is truly disturbing. I can just imagine the suffering that goes with it. According to what I read, this law goes back to the time of Moses.

Its good to believe in some thing but to be a fanatic about it like killing, torturing and to disfigure some one because of your faith - I call that uncivilized.

The God that I was brought up to believe in, is for love and peace and not the torture or disfiguring of brothers and sisters as we all are according to the Bible that I read at times.

That’s it for today. Have a good day.

Apology revisited.

Not to long ago I wrote about the word apology. Some people think that this word is a sign of weakness and I said that it clearly wasn't.

Trucks resume after apology.

Well this word did some good when the USA apologized for the killing of 24 Pakistanis soldiers recently. Now the USA will be able to keep on bringing supplies to their troops in Afghanistan. Their convoy had been  stopped on the road to their troops. Things were stranded for a long time, because of someone’s big ego. Now, this little word  has opened the road for those supplies again. Because of someone’s big ego, how many of these trucks have been or could have been blown up while stuck? And what is the cost or value of the trucks and equipment ? Was it worthwhile not to apologize?

Whether right or not, if you think this little word apologize will get you what you want, use it. Details can be found on Fox News about the opening of the road.

Now that this little word was used, relations with the Pakistanis and the USA might get a little more friendly and also more cooperation from the Pakistanis in the fight to defend Afghanistan against terrorism.

That’s my little rant of the day.

Pakistan

Every day while reading the news I go on a Pakistani news website to see what grievance they have against the USA and very seldom a day goes by that they don’t have something to complain about.

I get the feeling that they would rather have the Taliban or some other terrorist group in their country instead of any sort of alliance with the United States. My question would be whether they are so scared of the terrorists that they would rather see the USA out of their country? The way I see it, they are playing the Americans as suckers and trying to get everything they can get from them without them being in their country.
