Maybe it is for the better that only “politically reliable” officers receive high command positions. Competent officers would bring the US only victories like in the early part of WW2 for Germany, but as soon Military leadership is replaced with Political leadership the situation will only improve for the victims of the Wars of Aggression. Only a major defeat would have a sobering effect on the US government and population, Wars would no longer be profitable, and when they are no longer profitable then no one would want to start one. Sadly many young lives will be lost for the sobering effect to take affect.

The American government is so heavily compromised at it’s highest levels by the number of Israeli agents holding positions in those levels,that it is no longer capable of governing the country.It is inertia that keeps the government going.Eventually a crisis will arise that cannot be overcome by inertia and the system will begin to unwind.It doesn’t matter which party is in power,the Israeli agents hold the power levers.With the economic crisis digging deeper and deeper,this crisis may come within the next two or three years.

On the face of it, there’s no reason for Kristol to visit General Odierno. The two have nothing in common. The former is a chickenhawk douche bag, while the latter’s a soldier.

Of course, if Odierno’s a neocon, that explains everything. General David Betrayus–er, Petraeus–is undoubtedly a neocon. That’s why he’s slated to take over CENTCOM in September. His predecessor, Admiral William Fallon, USN was fired because he’s opposed to war with Iran. (Fallon, by the way, called Petraeus an “ass-kissing little chickens**t” when they first met. Fallon’s a good judge of character.)

Obama a ‘constituional scholar’? The man hasn’t a Const.-respecting bone in his body. Name the legislation that he has proposed that would pass original intent scrutiny. BHO was fought against gunownership since he was knee-high to an Orc. Other than having a palpable animus toward whites, what makes his wife any better? Both of them have milked the AA system to get where they are – let’s see their PSAT, SAT, AP, and LSAT scores if they are so brilliant. The odious pair are nothing but anti-white socialist bigots who hope to sleaze into the White House on BO’s black heritage. Even the meglomaniacal Spitzer had double-barreled 800′s or close on his SATs’. The system that gave the US BO and war-pig McInsane is hopelessly broken and needs to be eliminated post haste before our economy and worse are destroyed. ST

Petraeus declaring martial law would amount to the same thing as when Alexander Haig declared that he was ‘in charge here’ after Reagan was shot. Such a declaration would be emphatically illegal and if carried out would amount to an attempted military putsch…a coup d’etat. And if America is worth saving, it should also give rise to the people declaring open season on government and Blackwater goons patrolling the streets. Considering the dumbing down of Boobus Americanus in this day and age, I’m not sure that would happen. That said, it is not beyond the pale to expect that Cheney, through Bush, might make such a declaration.

"A new WorldPublicOpinion.org poll of 18 countries finds that in 14 of them people mostly say their government should not take sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Just three countries favor taking the Palestinian side (Egypt, Iran, and Turkey) and one is divided (India). No country favors taking Israel's side, including the United States, where 71 percent favor taking neither side" http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/07/20...

Oil hits $130 per barrel in Singapore. The ultimatum will apparently be a two week rollercoaster ride.

Meanwhile the comedy for today:

Rice says Iran not serious at weekend nuke talks

SHANNON, Ireland AP- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accused Iran on Monday of not being serious at weekend talks about its disputed nuclear program despite the presence of a senior U.S. diplomat, and warned it may soon face new sanctions….Rice said Iran had given the run-around to envoys from the U.S. and five other world powers….

At the meeting, Iran had been expected to respond to a package of incentives offered in exchange for halting enrichment of uranium, which can be used to fuel atomic weapons….

However, Rice said that instead of a coherent answer, Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili delivered a “meandering” monologue full of irrelevant “small talk about culture” that appeared to annoy many of the others present at the table in Geneva.

“We expected to hear an answer from the Iranians but, as has been the case so many times with the Iranians, what came through was not serious,” Rice told reporters aboard her plane as she flew to the United Arab Emirates. “It’s time for the Iranians to give a serious answer.”

“They can’t go and stall and make small talk about culture, they have to make a decision,” she said. “People are tired of the Iranians and their stalling tactics.”

….Rice was dismissive when asked if Burns or another U.S. diplomat would be present to hear Iran’s response in two weeks.

“I think we’ve done enough to demonstrate that the United States is serious and to assure our partners that we’re serious,” she said.
