Middle Class Populist

We hear the endless whining by the effete snobs of Corporate America that they pay too much in taxes! Yet how many days does one Middle Class Taxpayer have to work to equal the total compensation of these effete snobs! Like their income is based on working! Sure we need to give incentives for creativity and going to medical school. But doctors and incentives are not the issue here. This is beyond that! Corporate executives are paid far too much! Then these WHINERS complain. Yet in Europe there are just as many per capita millionaires but they learn to adjust to an economic system that tries to practice SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY! Oh dear in this era of licentious permissiveness (to use a conservative term) I said a bad term, “social responsibility”!

(The video above is funny but makes an important point how we could have used the money we wasted in Iraq! Show it to your friends!)

Because of George Bush, along with his fellow traveler John McCain and their lackey Joe Lieberman, our nation is throwing billions and billions into a vast WILD EYED REPUBLICAN SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT IN IRAQ! What do you expect to happen with interest rates? Years after “Mission Accomplished” our nation is allowing our troops to die! Worst yet they are lead by a Commander - in - Chief who did not finish his mandatory meetings in the National Guard! Then add to this the Bush tax cuts to the wealthy! Bush does this as he goes on a mass spending spree with this neo-con IRAQI SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT!

What do you think is going to happen to the budget surplus that was left to Bush by Bill Clinton? You would think Bush and his fellow traveler John McCain would at least care for the Veterans whom they placed in harms way! (See Video Below) No they prefer to cut taxes to the super rich instead!

Meanwhile we wave the white flag of surrender to the face of Osama Bin Ladin in the Afghan - Pakistani border region where the Al Qaeda homeland is located and their finances our undergoing a SURGE from the record opium production. The Afghan Opium Surge profit combined with the renegade nuclear scientists in Pakistan and the Al Qaeda base camps in the border region could result in a mushroom cloud over an American city! Not to worry with the great job George Bush has done with our border and port security!

Has anyone noticed a typical Republican Script?

ISSUE #1: Iraq War and Republican SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT IN IRAQ while cutting taxes to help the rich and destroying the Clinton budget surplus!

ANSWER: Let’s not talk about how we got into this mess the fact is we are here and so the patriotic thing is to just fix it!

ISSUE #2: Housing crisis with higher interest rates from the war costs combined with lax regulations.

ANSWER: Let’s not talk about how we got into this mess the fact is we are here and so the patriotic thing is to just fix it!

ISSUE #3: Wall Street bail-out crises from unpaid mortgages being held by credit institutions the result of issues 1 + 2 above!

ANSWER: Let’s not talk about how we got into this mess the fact is we are here and so the patriotic thing is to just fix it!

Well they are right! The time has come to fix these issues!

COUNTRY FIRST! TAX THE TOP 5%! IT’S THE PATRIOTIC THING TO DO!

VOTE FOR BARRACK OBAMA AND JOE BIDEN!

Yet again more pro-Republican News Media Biases! Senator McCain has stated that he would follow Osama Bin Laden to the gates of hell. Yet he will not go after him in this world in his Pakistani mountain hideout! Barrack Obama has stated over a year ago that if we had creditable intelligence as to the location of Al Qaeda in their new Pakistani homeland we would attack them even without permission from Pakistan. (See video below).

Oh the self righteous conservatives and even Hillary Clinton attacked him on this. Yet this week President Bush has said the same thing! Well I guess that puts to rest the Republican argument concerning Barrack Obama’s judgment! Yet the NEWS MEDIA don’t give Senator Obama credit for saying this over a year ago! Instead they let McCain smear Obama with stupid statements that Obama wants to fight terrorism in the courts! Below Bush catches up to Obama’s point of view without giving him credit!

To bad the Republicans continue to waste our troops and resources in this wild eyed SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT in Iraq! This was never a part of the mandate that Bush received from the Congress! He had undermined the military deterrence of the United States by continuing to pursue this social engineering experiment.

Why you ask?

Because if our definition of success is not merely the overthrow of a dangerous regime but ALSO the institution of western style democracy then other dangerous states like Iran and North Korea have nothing to fear from us since we must first finish up in Iraq before we can come after them. Just witness the actions of the North Korean Regime! One day they will shut down their nuclear program then the next they are building nuclear weapons again and even missile sites to hit the United States!

Ask yourself these questions:

· What is our deterrence if they know we cannot come after them unless we first finish our social engineering experiment in Iraq. You know the experiment that has been going on longer that the democratization of former Nazi Germany!

· What message are we sending Iran and North Korea when we tell them we will not tolerate their building of nuclear weapons but then we set about to build a small Star Wars type nuclear shield in Europe, not against a large scale attack from Russia but against a small rogue state! The presumption for building such a system is that we are going allow North Korea and Iran to have nuclear weapons!

Some American are like children. They see only two choices! Fight in Iraq else you are appeasing terrorism and dictatorships! Americans love ACTION FIGURES! So what the action is taking place in the wrong area of the world at least it is action!

Democrats must counter-act this by becoming “Action Figures” themselves! They should point out how are borders and ports are wide open to terrorists! It must be driven home to the American people that Al Qaeda is located in many countries though out the world. We are not going to waste our forces occupying every nation that has an Al Qaeda presence. Their Headquarters was in Taliban Afghanistan and now next door in the mountain regions of Pakistan! We must wipe them out there before they attack us again!

Instead of informing the American public how Barrack Obama was for taking decisive military action against the real Al Qaeda Homeland the news media plays the Republican game of “put the lipstick on the pig“! Thus denying the public valuable information that is relavent to the election process!

I was one of those who were for the Iraqi War with the “Mission” that our Congress in deliberation set as the goal! We won the war and our President, who never finished his own National Guard obligation, then declared “Mission Accomplished”! Now our President, who doesn’t want to follow the goals that Congress committed our troops to accomplish under “a strict constructionalist” interpretation of our Constitution, instead wants to accomplish a different goal. Bush and his fellow traveler John McCain, want to wage a “One Hundred Year” War in Iraq while the opium crop surges in Afgahnistan! These wild eyed Republicans want to commit our nation to a vast Social Engineering Experiment while the sales of Afghan opium production SURGES to swell the treasury of Al Qaeda Central in their border homeland on the Afghan - Pakistani border! John McCain seems to have a problem not only understanding the difference between Sunni and Shiite but where the Al Qaeda Homeland is!

(McCain demonstrates his Presidential abilities - oops! See Video above)

Yet Senator Obama and the Democrats seem to be getting mired in the quicksand of a peripheral issue! That “issue” being the effectiveness of the Iraq Surge! I am not running for political office! I can speak the truth and not care where that leads me! The answer is clearly, yes the surge is working but who the hell cares! That’s right who the hell cares! Everyone knows that the Al Qaeda Homeland was in Afghanistan under the Taliban until we overthrew the Taliban Government. Now they are in the border regions with Pakistan plotting more attacks against our homeland! The old Soviet Union, which had no problem using firing squads to eliminate rebels, could not win in Afghanistan. Since we cannot afford to loose in Afghanistan shouldn’t we end the social engineering experiment in Iraq!  We have accomplished our Congressionally mandated Iraqi mission! Let’s deploy all our resources on the War on Terror instead in Afghanistan and the border regions of Pakistan! Our cities could be at stake!

Instead the Democrats allow the Republicans to define the battlefield on this political issue! If John McCain and his fellow traveler Joe Lieberman desire so much to prevent genocide why not forget about Iraq and turn to Darfur? (See the Video Below)

Again I repeat, WHO CARES IF THE SURGE IS WORKING! If we our so concerned about a potential bloodbath what about the already existing GENOCIDE in Darfur!

If we were to invade Jordan then add more troops, a similar surge would also work there too! That does not prove a Jordanian invasion and occupation mission is in the interests of the United States of America! The military does not decide that for America! The President and Congress decide that! The military is to provide the “means to achieve our ends”! The Republicans had better learn the “Lessons of History”!

The Democrats had better learn not simply to “answer questions” but to DEFINE THE QUESTION and ISSUE! Instead we hear Obama answering questions like, what would you do if the conditions on the ground changed?

My answer again is WHO THE HELL CARES! Besides “Mission Accomplished” according to George Bush!

The Iraqi Government wants us out and they are Shiites! Al Qaeda is Sunni and Al Qaeda blew up the most holy Shiite site! The Iraqi’s can take care of the issue better then us with that special Mideast way of dealing with their enemies! If Al Qaeda does find some safe areas then that is what we have “shock and awe” technology for. Well that is unless our CUT AND RUN CORPORATIONS don’t sell it to our enemies!

While John McCain and his side kick Joe Lieberman worry about Barrack Obama saying he would “talk to the Iranians”, the Baghdad government our troops are dying for in Iraq is talking to and even visiting Iran! Oh well but then so are Halliburton and General Electric! I guess the Republicans have no problem if stock holders make a profit while our brave troops loose life and limb!

If we are so worried about a “potential” blood bath in Iraq why are we not worried about an “ACTUAL GENOCIDE” in Darfur? Perhaps Senator McCain and his side kick, Joe Lieberman who is constantly at McCain’s side, can answer that! Besides the threat to “our homeland” is not from Iraq but from the Al Qaeda homeland on the Afghanistan - Pakistani border!

In this era of licentious permissiveness ( I love using Republican speak) when wild eyed SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENTS in Iraq are causing a “surge ” in economic problems in our homeland the Silent Majority demand that Bush follow a “strict construcionalist” interpretation of the Congressional Mandate in Iraq that he was given. America’s Middle Class has had enough with Bush and the CUT AND RUN CORPORATIONS that deal with Iran!

Barrack Obama For President!

It seems that CBS, that great bastion of liberal news media biases, if you were to believe the ever whining Republican right, has edited their coverage of John McCain so as to not reveal perhaps one of his “senior moments”! Senator McCain seems to have misplaced the time line of the “surge” and a political deal with an Iraqi Sheik! What is worst is that CBS seems to have covered it up. (See Video Below).

What I find even more troubling is that Democrats have repeatedly pointed out that much of the reduction in violence is due to political wheeling and dealing with the various Sunni Sheiks and even militias (Sunni and Shiite) that were once shooting at us! However having such militias is inconsistent with a democracy if that is our goal! But then again we have Black Water there in Iraq and sometimes even on missions in the U.S.

Ah yes we send our troops to die so that:

Government of the Militias,

By the Militias,

And for the Militias will not perish from this earth!

The Democrats keep getting flak when they point out that our goal posts, for the Iraqi Democracy that the Republican SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT is supposed to achieve, keep getting lower and lower! Then the Democrats where attacked as unpatriotic and unsupportive of our troops for not crediting them for the reduction in violence! As if the changing of the militia’s allegiance had nothing to do with it! Aside from the fact that the surge is working but it isn’t the issue (see the following post) we are left with some questions!

• Why is CBS showing pro-conservative news media biases? Just imagine if they edited Obama’s interviews!
• Why is McCain getting away with the myth that he is ready to govern this nation? To be kind he was not having a “senior moment” with the truth that is just a “Republican moment”! Remember “Mission Accomplished” folks?
• Why isn’t the media pointing out how this occupation in Iraq, after five years has not produced results similar to Germany after the fall of the Nazis?

The time has come for Democrats to stop being such God damn wimps and really take on the Republicans and PRO-CONSERVATIVE NEWS MEDIA Biases! By being such wimps on campaign issues they become prey to Republicans smears that Democrats cannot defend America! A wimp is a wimp! Americans support those who talk back! No more John Kerry style campaigns and swift boating!

We hear the whine from these wild eyed advocates of the Neo-con SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT in Iraq that the Democrats are against our troops! These bleeding hearts of appeasement to Corporate America that continues to trade with Iran, while that nation sends supplies to kill our brave troops, do not even have faith in our troops! The US State Department uses Backwater to protect embassy staff rather than fully using our Marines and Army.  (See Video Below that lists an incident over a year ago that still has not been corrected)

When Democrats point out that this is a civil war and that much of the recent reduction in violence was the result of low level diplomatic talks with Sunni Militias to have them switch sides, the Republicans then said that the Democrats where trying to demean our troops. Yet it has been over a year now since a report from NBC News stated that we are not giving our troops the latest in body armor to protect them! (See the video below)

Not to mention the scandal concerning Walter Reed Hospital and our injured veterans, nor the recent attempts by Bush and his fellow travelers in the republican party to limit benefits to our troops!

In this era of licentious permissiveness where the effete snobs of corporate America do business with Iran, trading valuable technology that can be used against our brave troops, the time has come for the Republicans to learn the lessons of history! Profit must not be allowed to come before our troops!

Yet George Bush, John McCain and their fellow travelers continue to attack Barrack Obama for saying he would first “talk” to Iran. Apparently it is alright for Halliburton to have a subsidiary in Iran while it profits from the War in Iraq and General Electric was not stopped when they sold valuable technology to Iran! The type of “talking” that benefits the effete snobs of the “Corporate Class” is perfectly permissible to John McCain and his mentor George Bush!

The time has come for America’s Silent Majority, our Middle Class to stand up and say NO to those who say politics ends at our shores but corporate profits do not!

The Republican Party is once again going to run a smear campaign and “straight talking” John McCain says he doesn’t have any control of the Republican National Committee. When will the Democratic Party get the guts to fight back and stop believing that negative campaigns don’t work? They do work just ask John Kerry! Now we hear that the Republican National Committee is going to go negative and Barrack Obama is setting up a website to counter act the smears! Wow I am impressed - yeah right! The Democrats have got to get in the dirt and fight back hard!

But then again the Democrats won the election in 2006 but did they do anything to stop the war? Hell no! I admit that they would be taking a big gamble if they cut off the funding for the war as Bush and his fellow travelers would use that to paint the Democrats as not supporting the troops! But there are other strategies that the Democrats could use to attack Bush!

1. Impeach George Bush. Congressman Dennis Kucinich is attempting to do this currently. The Republicans had no problem driving this country down the impeachment path when Bill Clinton was the President. Don’t the Democrats have any guts to do the same?
2. Hold extensive in depth hearings concerning how this nation got into the war and if the decision making process was corrupted by George Bush. Congress has the constitutional right to issue subpoenas to accomplish this mandate. They have done some but they don’t have the guts to do more! Why?
3. Hold hearings to at least give George Bush a Congressional Censure concerning changing the “Mission” of the Iraqi Operation from overthrowing Saddam Hussein which was what Congress voted on, to the new mission. That being George Bush’s SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT in Iraq!
4. Hold extensive hearings into WAR PROFITEERING and how corporate interests influence decision making processes of our Government! Is Nancy Pelosi a complete chicken?
5. George Bush is the Commander in Chief of our Armed Forces yet there is no record of his completed service in the National Guard. If the Democrats don’t have the guts to cut off funding for the war because of patriotic issues concerning our troops, don’t the American people have a right to investigate George Bush’s record in the National Guard? <See the video below>

The Democratic Party has turned into wimps! Yes even www.Moveon.org has turned wimpy. They above video was their commercial and they backed away from it! Now the RNC will use smear tactics and the question is, will Obama continue with his plans to run a cordial town hall debate series with John McCain while this is occurring? Have you noticed the flag lapel controversy that has started up just like in the past during the Vietnam War? While I don’t believe one’s patriotism is measured by wearing a flag pin I am glad Barrack Obama did not fall into their trap!

How about the CUT AND RUN CORPORATIONS that have deserted America placing profits over the nation that gave them birth while the BLEEDING HEART REPUBLICANS support them. Such as:

• Halliburton that has a subsidiary in Iran
• ITT that pleaded guilty to selling military technology to China
• General Electric that also is selling equipment to Iran!

What is wrong with the Democrats have they turned into spineless gutless wimps? Time go kick some Republican ass and defend America! This nation’s Silent Majority - our great Middle Class demands The Republican Social Engineering Experiment in Iraq come to and end - NOW! Meanwhile opium production is soaring in Afghanistan as is the growth of the Taliban and Al Qaeda central! Our borders are wide open and Bush even wanted to turn over our ports to the United Arab Emirates! Don’t the Democrats have any spine to stand up to Bush?

Sure you have heard it said that we must stay in Iraq to preserve our defense of our homeland! I believe we must leave to defend our homeland! George Bush and his fellow traveler John McCain are destroying our military deterrence! When your potential enemy stares you in the face and there is a line in the sand our enemies will evaluate the cost to themselves of crossing that line! Many PC Liberals AND Neo-Con Republicans don’t seem to understand this second way George Bush is undermining military deterrence that I am going to list here in this post. While this blogger is a liberal democrat I am not a politically correct one! Let me humbly present several axioms that must be understood by both the PC Liberals and Republicans. The first is used by conservatives to ruin liberals not because it is not true but because many sugar fluff PC Liberals are so damned masochistic and they want our society to enjoy a secular version of “original sin” replacing the apple with the sin of enjoying a middle class life style!

AXIOM #1: When engaging an enemy you must be willing to kick ass else you are an ass kisser!

The above AXIOM is why both I and many Democrats accepted initially the Iraq War and why I still believe it was the right thing to do even without WMD! The issue is the social engineering experiment that followed. Remember “Mission Accomplished”? This leads us to my second humble Axiom that the Conservatives don’t seem to understand.

AXIOM #2: When confronted by American military might rogue dictators are NOT motivated by fear that they will be overthrown and replaced by a Democracy! They simply fear being overthrown by our military might!

This now leads us to understand why and how George Bush and his fellow traveler John McCain are undermining the Military Deterrence of the United States!

AXIOM #3: When confronting several rogue dictatorships you target one (maybe even the weakest) and if they do not comply you overthrow the dictator and replace his government with a friendly government then HIGH TAIL it out fast. Engage in Social Engineering Experiments only when absolutely needed as after WWII! If we engage in an extended occupation then our “perceived threat” and “willingness to take action” against our enemies is reduced! Our forces and resources will be preoccupied and your enemy knows that!

If needed we could always return and it would be easier and less costly then engaging in a Social Engineering Experiment! This leads us to our final AXIOM of MILITARY DETERRENCE!

AXIOM #4: Know your strengths and weaknesses! Our great strength is our “Shock and Awe” Technology! (Oh dear that is not politically correct). Our weakness is we don’t want to engage in extended occupations and unlike the Germans we don’t like to line rebels up against a wall and shoot them. (Perhaps this might be a good trait to learn if needed when occupation is necessary).

Now ask yourself these questions!

1. Why should Iran fear us if we cannot leave Iraq for 100 years? We must by our own rules first complete a social engineering experiment in Iraq while Afghanistan reverts to terrorists and rogue nuclear scientist’s team with Al Qaeda in Pakistan. Why should North Korea fear us? If we announce “Mission Accomplished” in Iraq we could then scare Iran and North Korea as more of our military and resources would be free! With our “Shock and Awe Military Technology” we would have a higher perceived “willingness to use it”. But if our “definition of success” requires a social engineering experiment then our perceived “willingness to act” and our “military threat” to our remaining enemies is diminished!
2. If we are trying to change Iran’s behavior then why are we willing to build an Anti-Missile Defense in Eastern Europe against rogue states like Iran or North Korea? Building such a system presupposes we are going to allow Iran to have nukes! Not to mention that it gave Putin domestic strength in Russia!

Finally we retain our Military Deterrence as long as CUT AND RUN CORPORATIONS do not sell our technology to our enemies nor export our jobs. This is a Geo - Political - Economic and Military competition against the enemies of freedom! Unlike PC Liberals I support the S.D.I. initiative! I just wonder why we would build it in Europe to protect them from a rogue state when it is our policy to prevent such states from having nuclear weapons!

America’s Middle Class, which does not benefit from CUT AND RUN CORPORATIONS abandoning our shores to invest in the enemies of freedom, can rest secure knowing that at least George Bush has secured our borders and ports! The Dubai Ports deal just goes to show how they place “portfolio security” over “port security”! The time has come for America’s Silent Majority, our great Middle Class to say enough!

Why is it that John McCain does not support Senator Jim Webb’s GI Bill? The answer is that he wants to hold the carrot in front of our brave troops so they will serve more tours of duty in the Republican Social Engineering Experiment in Iraq! If the troops were to get a GI Bill after serving their initial three to four year enlistments many would not re-enlist and that is public knowledge even admitted by George Bush!

QUESTION: What is similar to Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destrucition (WMD) and why?

ANSWER: George Bush’s completed service record in the National Guard. Like Iraqi WMD neither can be found!

We live in an era of licentious permissiveness:

• Where Cut and Run American Corporations do business with the enemies of America such as Halliburton that has a foreign subsidiary involved in Iran. You know the nation that is sending ammunition to kill our brave troops in Iraq! I guess it is ok to sit down with Iran when it serves the class interest of upper class Americans whose kids generally (some are not hypocrites) do not fight in these wars!
• When CUT AND RUN corporations like ITT can illegally sell our converted night vision technology to China which can then sell it to our enemies or even use it themselves!
• When our troops could be safe in their tanks and personnel carriers with a weapon system developed by an Israeli company that wants to sell it to us! Yet our government is more concerned about American contractors who will take five years more to develop such a system! This from the advocates of Free Trade! Oh but these sunshine patriots will wear their Flag Lapels! (See the Video Below).

While the bleeding hearts of the Republican Party whine for corporate America the time has come to give our soldiers a G I Bill that will let them have an education and future! The time has come to support our troops. End the Republican Social Engineering Experiment in Iraq!

No doubt our Arab allies, the great democratic nations of the Muslim world will regret that Iraq does not rise up to their great level of democracy! Let them rush to fill the vacuum. Our job is to win the War against the Al Qaeda homeland in Afghanistan and Pakistan!

As the opium crop blossoms into ever higher world records in Afghanistan guess where the money raised from this crop is going to go? It is going to terrorists who threaten our homeland yet Bush and his fellow traveler John McCain are pre-occupied with the social engineering experiment in Iraq! The American Middle Class - our great Silent Majority demands that the evil triad of Afghan opium money, Pakistani rogue nuclear scientists and Al Qaeda Central in the Afghan - Pakistan border region be stopped.

Instead of worrying about trivial flag pins on lapels the Silent Majority wants America’s service men and woman to have a G I Bill and have it now! Let’s win the war against Al Qaeda Central in Afghanistan and Pakistan by stopping this circus in Iraq!

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews interviewed a true believer recently who apparently mouthed the slogans of the neo-con right and did not even know his history. Barrack Obama who has said he would not stand by while Al Qaeda Central in Pakistan regroups to attack our Homeland, was called an appeaser by National Guard deserter George Bush who was addressing the Israeli Knesset!

What George Bush and his fellow travelers just don’t seem to understand is that talking to one’s enemies is not the same as appeasing them. Chris Matthews really drives home this point with a Neo-Con who did not realize exactly “why” Neville Chamberlin was an appeaser!

As Al Qaeda Central located on the Pakistan - Afghan border continues to grow along with their financially supporting poppy crops, America’s Silent Majority - our great Middle Class, continues to wonder when these effete snobs of the Republican Party will end their vast Social Engineering Experiment in Iraq! But then again we wonder when they will stop Cut and Run Corporations from having a subsidiary in Iran like Halliburton does! I guess that type of interaction with Iran is fine with the Republicans!

The time has come for the Silent Majority, our great Middle Class, to stand up to these effete snobs of the Republican Party and their fellow travelers in Corporate America who not only waste the lives of our brave military personnel but also have taken away our budget surplus on this wasteful social engineering experiment in Iraq. Yet in this era of permissiveness we allow these effete snobs of the corporate world to export our wealth, jobs and technology to the enemies of America!

I mentioned in this blog before that Senator Mc Cain has a new lost puppy dog who is always following him around. Like the nodding puppy dog toy you would see a few years back in the rear window of many cars.

Why is it that Senator Lieberman never seems concerned about the actual genocide going on right now in Darfur but is so preoccupied with a “potential” bloodbath in Iraq? Does his “constituents” from Connecticut have no concern for what is happening in Darfur or does Joe Lieberman serve some other group? Perphaps he also wants to be John McCain’s running mate?

Well it seems Senator Lieberman and John McCain both have a spiritual guide as their “fellow traveler” on the road to Bagdad! The rabid Pastor Rod Parsley! Is it any wonder they want to divert attention away from Al Qaeda central in the Afghan - Pakistan border and instead continue with this social engineering experiment in Iraq! Rather than deal surgically with Al Qaeda Central as Barrack Obama wants these advocates of a Hundred year war want to involve America in an endless drain on our resources for their religious agenda! Doubt me listen to John McCain’s spiritual advisor below!

The time has come for America’s Silent Majority, our great Middle Class to say no to this Republican social engineering experiment in Iraq! Our nation must devote itself to the protection of our homeland not someone else’s!
