Where is the leadership?

What I would like to know is where is the leadership, that would include leading a coalition to put boots on the ground, to eliminate ISIS? As I see it, at this time, those people are free to do whatever they want - killings, torture, shooting at everything that moves including not only adults but also children. To me it just appears that most nations of the world are in agreement with them because all they are doing at this time is more or less giving them a slap on the wrist. Sure the bombing impedes their freedom of travel but it seems that they can still get to where they want to go. So these bombings might slow them down but people are still getting killed and tortured and cities are being taken over by them.

Bombs can be dropped, but they are not made to chase people to blow them up so to think that just bombing them will finally eliminate them is foolish. It might impede them, slow them down but, it won't eliminate them. Anyone or any nation that doesn’t want to do anything but bomb them are in dreamland because according to reports this group is getting bigger every day.

If anyone thinks that those people are doing this because Allah wants them to do it, then you better start thinking again. Those people are doing this to satisfy their own warped mind just to kill and torture. They are  using their religion to cover the fact that it’s a sporting event for them. If anyone doesn’t want to do whatever is needed to eliminate them it’s because they are in the same frame of mind as them. And anyone that would try and protect them by just bombing them is a hypocrite and would like them to conquer the world to declare their caliphate and declare Sharia law to be the only law in the world. Those people are so intent on killing that they will also kill their own members. Either you are against them or you are for them - it's that simple.

Who is the most dangerous?

Who is the most dangerous to the American way of life? I would say at this time it seems that both the Jihadists and the Obama administration are competing for top spot. In different ways of course. The American citizen has to be on the lookout for the terrorist because their lives depend on it and the administration of Obama is more or less doing the same but by snooping on the citizens and more or less taking their free speech and privacy away under the pretense of doing it for the security of the nation.

No laughing matter

Some might find this a weird title for a rant. But after I've explained you will realize that the title is appropriate for this rant. I could have entitled it "Loose or Wagging Tongues", but I already have a couple of posts about wagging or loose tongues regarding people engaging their tongue before engaging their brain. In any case, tonight I decided to check the Fox News website to see if they had something new to report and sure enough in one section of Fox News there was a link to NewsMax. Here is what I read.

The U.S. government has revealed details of a top-secret Israeli military installation under construction by publishing its specifications for contractor bidding.

It was treated as though it was just any other project the Defense Department was involved in.

According to McClatchy newspapers, the Obama administration had promised to build Israel a state-of-the-art facility to host a new ballistic-missile defense system, the Arrow 3, designed amid Israel's fears of Iran's nuclear intentions.

Specifications released by the department include more than 1,000 pages of details on the facility, ranging from the heating and cooling systems to the thickness of the walls. But the project had been classified, and so top secret that Israel's military won't officially confirm its location at Tel Shahar, between Jerusalem and Ashdod.

"If an enemy of Israel wanted to launch an attack against a facility, this would give him an easy how-to guide. This type of information is closely guarded and its release can jeopardize the entire facility," an unidentified Israeli military official told McClatchy.

America has no steering

The United States is now a nation that doesn't seem to have any leadership whatsoever.  I am not a person of great knowledge about politics. But a person doesn't have to be knowledgeable about politics to understand the lack of a rudder, the lack of steering that exists in America.  No steering means no leadership. I mentioned in a previous post that you can only believe half of what is reported and the other half you just have to wait and see.

I know this happened about 8 to 9 months ago, but it’s not dead yet as to what really happened in Benghazi. We have been shown the president contradicting himself on what he said in previous interviews about the subject of Benghazi.  There is also the very serious issue of the watering down of the report from the FBI about that night and how the administration was supposed to have been warned about what was happening and someone refused to send help. Everyone knows what happened to those Americans that were there.

What about the doctor that helped to get Osama Ben Laden? He’s rotting in jail and there doesn’t seem to be any help coming from the administration to try and get him out. If there were efforts, the media would have been all over it. There is a man that put his life on line to help his country and look what happened; he's been left to rot in jail and tortured. How about the known terrorist shown on video that were in the Benghazi affair and are running loose in Libya according to reports by video, we never heard of anything being done to bring them to justice?  Where is the diplomacy to get that doctor released? 

What about the IRS scandal poking their nose in private e-mails of Tea Party groups? What about a president ignoring certain parts of the Constitution to get what he wants? What about the censoring of a video to the military that was uncensored only after complaints. I’m not blaming the president for this. But he certainly has not helped in any of these cases if he's not outright guilty of something. Snd while I'm at it, why is there is so much talk against Christianity all of a sudden?

Where is the leadership for this nation, America?  Where is the transparency that was so much mentioned during the election?  Both, are gone.
