Warfare On The Streets Of Jamaica



The proud African state of Jamaica has joined Mexico and Columbia as states totally destabilized by the drug policy of the United States. The policy of extraditing alleged drug traffickers to the United States for kangaroo courts has ignited a backlash.

It is no coincidence that violence, kidnapping, and assaults on police are prevalent in countries that extradite their "citizens" to the US for trial. Accused criminals like Pablo Escobar and now Christopher Coke would rather die in their own country fighting than submit to the white man's justice here.

The extradition policy is a policy of rendition, cloaked in the legal system. The US merely charges a foreign citizen with a crime, the more outrageous the better. The foreign government, without charging the individual with a crime, destroys half the country and kills countless civilians to deliver the citizen to a foreign land. A land the accused may have never visited.

In this case 30 people have died as a result of this policy. The civilians died for the defense of their sovereignty. The Police died as slaves to another country.

Does not every citizen have a right to be accused and tried in the nation where he was born, by a jury of his true peers, and by a government that benefited from his/her taxes? Anyone can understand extraditing individuals who flee to other countries to avoid capture. However, bringing drug dealers here who have never been here is another.

Strange that only Black and Brown people are extradited. Roman Polanski is still vacationing in France after raping a little girl. The French protect him as a citizen, even though he is from here and committed the crime here. Certain individuals in the drug business are labeled "kingpins" and "cartel chiefs" because they made money in the drug business. These individuals are always Black or Brown. Although the distribution of drugs has always been controlled by the government and the bankers, none are ever convicted as kingpins. Frank Lucas, Freeway Ricky Ross, Christopher Coke, and Pablo Escobar did not own any ships or planes with runways in the US. They did not own any banks. They did not run a single police department. However, these men were kingpins because they owned a few houses and cars, and sponsored a few community events. Meanwhile, the police, judges, bankers, lawyers, and politicians who benefit are left alone. The government started the crack epidemic in the 1980's, yet, no government official was ever convicted of even a parking ticket.

This ridiculous policy must end. If the money spent during the past 30 years to stop, try, and convict drug dealers had been spent on treatment and prevention programs, there would be no drug kingpins. Lots of people have to be benefiting for a drug war to continue unabated for as long as it has.

The real drug kingpins are the pharmaceutical companies who sell legal drugs at exorbitant prices to people who can't afford them. These drugs are not designed to cure but, to keep the user coming back over and over again. Blood pressure medications, cancer drugs, AIDS drugs, drugs for restless leg syndrome. Oxycontin, percocet, vicodin, Demerol. All legal drugs that don't cure anything, but they cost a lot. Yet, the drug companies make billions legally, even though their drugs kill many more people.

Christopher Coke should be tried in Jamaica, if they have any charges against him. The popular uprising occurring in the streets may cause the government to fall as more and more people see this as an issue of sovereignty, and the government as a tool of the US. Other individuals involved in the drug trade and find common cause with Mr. Coke and join the fight, which may already be occurring based on the number of roadblocks.

In the end Christopher Coke will be killed and a new "drug kingpin" appointed and targeted. The cycle of violence will continue and the drugs will continue to flow. Then another scapegoat will emerge.

7 CIA Agents Killed In Afghanistan By "Double Agent"



They thought he was "friendly." That he had turned his back on fundamentalism. That he was a "good" muslim. Before he strolled in with a bomb on his back and killed 7 CIA agents.

The wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Somalia and Palestine are turning "good" muslims into enemies as thousands of muslim men, women, and children continue to be slaughtered in the name of fighting terror. American, British, and now Nigerian muslims are quietly joining the jihad and planning revenge attacks under the very noses of Homeland security. Every bullet and bomb fired produces another jihadist as the war on terror becomes a global war on Muslims.

As President Obama deploys more troops and drones to the Middle East, not one person has asked how we got to the point where the United States is at war with 6 Muslim nations (including Yemen) and a cold war with another (Iran). The only discussions in the White House involve hunting and killing militants not negotiation or review of US policy towards Israel.

The CIA failed to see this coming because they can no longer recognize the enemy. They don't walk around with T shirts that say Taliban or Al Qaeda. They don't have uniforms, barracks, or headquarters. They may be on one side of the line one day and across it the next based on what they just saw on the news or heard on the street. We fail to consider that if the US were a Muslim country attacking Christians in a foreign land, the Christians here would eventually revolt as would Christians around the world.

The war with the Muslim world was a huge mistake to begin with. It began with the pretext of 9/11, but the war was planned long ago in Tel Aviv and Washington. Israel would sujugate the Muslim states in their immediate area, namely Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine, while Egypt sits by , thumb in ass. The US would take care of Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, Yemen, Pakistan and the Sudan, while Saudi Arabia sits by, thumb in ass. Then Israel will have security.

It seems the only good Muslim will be a dead one. We won't have to ask the Muslims why they hate us, it will be as apparent as the blood on our hands.

President Obama Sends 30,000 Troops To Afghanistan



In a decision designed to placate Republicans, President Obama announced that 30,000 additional troops would be deployed to Afghanistan.

After doubling the number of troops deployed by Bush-Cheney, with no result, the additional troops are supposed to root out Al Qaeda and keep the Taliban from taking over the country. General McChrystal, a staunch Republican, requested 40,000 additional troops.

Strange that no troops were requested under Bush. He and CIA Director Tenet declared the war over. The Northern Alliance had defeated the Taliban, who were on the run in the mountains of Tora Bora. Osama Bin Laden was holed up in a cave somewhere. All the troops were then sent to Iraq to start a war based on lies.

Now that additional troops are being sent to fight a war that is just beginning, the Democrats are howling their disapproval. Crying in their whiskey. Where were these same Democrats when the war started? Why no disapproval of Bush's plans? They sat idly by while 150,000 troops were deployed to a country that never attacked us, resulting in the loss of over 5,000 American lives and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. Hypocrites.

President Obama is deploying the troops to save the Democrats seats in the House and Senate in 2010. There can be no other reason. He knows that the Democrats are vulnerable because of their inability to unite on health care. Not giving the military the resources they say they need to finish the job in Afghanistan only further weakens their ability to hold majorities in Congress. Only an idiot would not send the troops requested. If Al Qaeda attacked the mainland again, Obama would look like a complete fool and surely loose in 2012 if he did not send the troops.

He is not naive enough to believe that 30,000 troops will succeed where 100,000 have failed. However, the pressure is now on Robert Gates and the Joint Chiefs to win. It also makes a pullout easier when they fail. John McCain is already whining that there should be no timetable. Total war forever is his mantra.

Even Cheney has reared his dickhead and claimed that Obama was "dithering" with his decision. What did Dick and Bush do for eight years if they weren't dithering? They let Osama escape, the opium trade re surge, and the country deteriorate. Nothing more.

Now that the Taliban and Al Qaeda know that additional troops are on the way, they will simply melt into the countryside or across the border with Pakistan to wait us out. They don't have long supply lines to maintain. They don't have to build bases and spend billions of dollars on equipment and transportation. They live there. They know every nook and cranny of the country and everybody in it. They speak a common language, share a common religion, and a history of kicking the shit out of foreigners.

The Democrats should shut up and support their President because he is saving their asses from defeat next year, something they don't appear to be to concerned about. Close ranks on something, ANYTHING, or suffer the consequences!

Shootout At Fort Hood



Muslims attacked America again yesterday, this time from within. This time a Major in the Army strolled onto the base with two handguns and proceeded to shoot 43 people, before he was shot by police.

First, my sincere condolences to the families of the victims of this horrible massacre. Those poor soldiers were merely doing their duty as they saw it. Victims of someone elses bad decision. Defenseless. Kinda like the family shot up in a car while approaching a checkpoint in Iraq. Or bombed while at a wedding in Afghanistan. Senseless.

I am actually surprised more attacks haven't occurred. There are millions of Muslims in the United States. None are pleased with our actions in Iraq and Afghanistan or our unyielding support for Israel. Yet, we persist in policies that alienate a large portion of our population.

If the United States invaded Mexico, there would be Mexicans here that would refuse to fight, and revolt if necessary. African-Americans would certainly think twice about fighting an African country. (Somalia was declared a humanitarian mission, until we got there.) What Italian-American would sign up to shoot Italians.

America prides itself on being a melting pot with all races and religions respected. In reality, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, and African religions are viewed as pagan cults. Native religions are openly mocked at half time at major sporting events. Only Christians are going to heaven, and maybe a few Jews who are lucky enough to convert.

Now Muslims throughout America will see what real discrimination is like. The Japanese were locked up in concentration camps though no Japanese American had attacked anyone. Look for increased surveillance, wiretaps, and arrests of anyone even suspected of sympathizing with "terrorist" organizations. Excuses will be made to discharge certain individuals from Military service. The Klan will stage marches. Businesses targeted.

America may be a melting pot, but what happens when you suspect some ingredients are rotten?
