Are we on to the war drum beat yet America?

We have heard it before. Remember, Iraq and Libya with all their oil? Israel always wiling to stoke the fires at any chance? Chicken Hawks itching for a fight with our children not theirs? American military dying for the rich and their corporations? And very high gas prices for the world? Another big loss of disposable income for individuals throughout the world. Well here we go again with a new fake threat Iran. Lets destabilize another big part of the world again, what the hell? Another chapter out of the Republican neocon playbook.
Dogs are better than us, they love their owners no matter what their looks or religion. We can learn from dogs.

If it is like the Iraq war they will have to get some bull shit intelligence to scare the bejesus out of enough people to get a war resolution before Congress. Then enough congress critters have to fear losing their seats enough to vote for war.

I know that trouble in the ME means his oil will sell for MORE money and he will get richer.


Remember he is a murderous dictator who steals his nations natural resources and money.

I suppose Putin will want enough war in the ME to help him sell at a higher price, problem with that is if you tell dumbshit and Bolton they can have "some" murdering of innocent brown Muslims, they will probably murder all of them.

Republican President who did not have a stupid war or two on his record. Because Bush #41 and #43 did.

Think about it!
