THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

" One in 10 chance perhaps, but save Chile! ... not concerned with risks involved ... $10,000,000 available, more if necessary ... make the economy scream."-- CIA Director Richard Helms, discussing plan to destabilize government of Chile under democractically-elected President Salvador Allende

 

U.S. concedes Georgia attack attack in South Ossetia was a mistake

The U.S. State Department said Friday the Georgian attack in South Ossetia last August was a mistake, but that it did not justify Russia's large-scale intervention. The comments follow a critical newspaper assessment of the Tbilisi government's role in the crisis.

Webmaster's Commentary: 

I suppose we are now to congratulate the State Department for its magnificent grasp of the obvious.

Apparently, somewhere in Sakashvilli's calculations, he believed that he could absolutely count on support from the West (which had trained and equipped his army) should this military misadventure, began by Georgia's army, go absolutely completely wrong.

If the US and Sakashvilli didn't understand Russia's lightning-fast and intense military reaction to Georgia's invasion of South Ossetia, they were either guilty of magical thinking (which excludes logic, history, and an understanding of military capabilities) , or completely out of their minds to believe that such an outcome was not only possible, but probable.

Oh, and to that that last statement about "...the United States pledged $1 billion to support the country's economic recovery. "

Understanding that the US government is over ten trillion dollars in debt, would someone please make it clear to me just where the money is coming from, when we have homeless vets sleeping in our streets??

All the problems, and i mean all, can be solved once the Fed

michael mazur

Reserve is abolished.

That's a Trillion a year - year on year, at current values, they steal.

In addition to which, to further grind down the people i suspect they are behind all the wars too for reasons of Israel, and fiat currency creation in perpetuity.

And once the Fed is gone, you can have all the space exploration you can, as head of NASA, imagine, Mike. :o)
