Uncle Sam’s Death Mask

Under cover of the US media’s blanket coverage of the disasters in Japan, the brutal medieval princelings of Arabia and the Gulf have shipped troops and police to Bahrain to ensure that democracy cannot flourish in that region.

Nothing in that region happens without at least a nod from Uncle Sam.  Their actions in supplying the nod give the lie to any public speech by Obama or Clinton expressing support for democratic protesters in North Africa and the Near East. In this case, the actions will be deadly while their words are nothing but syrup. Their masks of concern will conspire in the violent deaths of young people, women and children, none of whom want anything but the barrel scrapings from the American Dream.

I can only hope that France and Britain recognize the cowardice of Obama’s administration and thus make their own positive decision to serve democracy and the masses in Libya by forcing Gaddafi’s air power to the ground.  I’m not holding my breath though.

Screw The Saudis

It was reported yesterday that the great U.S. ally, the barbaric and feudal kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has sent special police forces across the causeway into Bahrain to help the king suppress democracy demonstrators. Such an ally!

It is said by US foreign policy wonks that the US needs Saudi Arabia in its fights against terrorism and Iran. Such nonsense! We know perfectly well that the Kingdom is the largest giver of funds to the jihadists, that 80%+ of the 9/11 bombers came from Saudi Arabia, and that the Kingdom is one of the worst places in the world for human rights failures. For those reasons alone, we should cut them adrift as they can hardly do the West any more harm than they do already.

Moreover, it is the Kingdom that needs OUR help to survive against their enemies and to buy their oil.  We just need the courage to tell them to go to hell and then sit back and watch them crawl back into our corner (or collapse).
