I would like to point out the obvious to the oblivious that the United States State Department runs the American government and all other political figures are mere cogs in the machinations of pure willful ignorance.
The developments in Lebanon is tantamount to surrender to known and declared terrorists and I find this quite unacceptable. I used to think well of Condi and have grown to think, "Oh well." Condi is now classified as a Clear and Present Danger and should be summarily dismissed from her self-vaunted pedestal. Along with her, every Diplomat now currently receiving tax dollars as payment for their unearned salaries should also be banished from public service. The State Department needs to be dismantled and all those that support the State Department need to be eviscerated from our memories.
I have always looked upon diplomats as third rate runts in the greater scheme of things because all diplomats do is foul things up so poorly, they create environments in which wars are fomented. All diplomacy does is delay the inevitable anyway and I have yet had anyone give me a viable example of diplomacy averting any war, any place at any time.
In recent days, Hizballah elements have secured their place in a controlling arena of the government of Lebanon, a theoretical friend of the United States. From all of the political falderal I have seen in this country from as far back as I can remember, it is a wonder that I can think anymore at all. Condi Rice should resign in disgrace forthwith -- she disgusts me. If this development in Lebanon via the Iranian backed Hizballah is a good thing, I now fully understand why she does what she does to Israel. Apparently, as displayed by her actions in favor of HAMAS and the alleged Palestinians, she joins the rank and file of Jimmy Carter in their utter hatred of Israel.
Ever since I learned of this travesty in Lebanon and having witnessed the inaction of the United States after hearing the pleas of the Lebanese government for help with no response from their "friend", I smelled many dead rats. This Warriors' Blood runs hot with anger and disappointment.
As noted at
Power Line:
Yesterday the government of Lebanon surrendered to Hezbollah, agreeing to all of Hezbollah's key demands. A good Wall Street Journal story provides some background. At the Couterterrorism Blog Andrew Cochran speculates on the meaning of the agreement. In a statement, Secretary Rice called the agreement "a positive step toward resolving the current crisis." Her assessment reflects poorly on her candor and aggravates the failure of American policy.
In other news bits, items and articles, one will find these words from Condi Rice:
In a statement, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called the agreement "a positive step toward resolving the current crisis."
"We call upon all Lebanese leaders to implement this agreement in its entirety," she said.
As President Bush warns the leaders of Lebanon against "making a deal" with the Iranians, Condi does this. Absolutely unacceptable. Who in the hell does she and her kind think they are? Since when does the State Department make policy?
Andrew Cochran writes at the
Counterterrorism web site:
Today is a day which we should mark on the calendar and remember for a long time. For on this day, it became abundantly clear that the Iranian-Syrian axis now controls Lebanon through Hezbollah, and Al Qaeda and the Taliban now control the Northwest provinces in Pakistan (see ABC News and the AP story). Both groups of terrorists won through sustained asymmetric (and, in Lebanon, conventional) warfare which eventually collapsed the will of the opposition, which was not supported in any material way by the United States and other nations... [...]
Yes. By all means. Mark this day down as another in a long list of Days of Infamy.
Perhaps this development is the explanation as to why Israel and Syria are suddenly in open peace talks...I can only surmise that Israel has come to the realization that the United States can no longer fulfill her promise to Israel because of the actions of the US State Department which has a long-running and standing reputation of considering themselves the United States Governemnt. Therefore, Israel should expel all United States enemies within the US State Department within her borders, tell Condi to go to "never mind" and do what she needs to do to survive.
So, seeing that Condi and her minions of wimps of the Wimplomat Corps seem to think that surrendering to Hizballah is a "good step", perhaps it is a "good step" to go ahead and let the socialists take this Nation, the United States, over and all will be OK seeing that the political bickering will vanish. Unbelievable. And then, when the Sword of Allah is at their throats, I will at least be around witness their contemptible surprise.
And, I shall not "save them" for I will be busy fighting ANOTHER damn war they started.
