Lincoln and DiLorenzo by Walter E. Williams:
"In 1831, long before the War between the States, South Carolina Senator John C. Calhoun said, 'Stripped of all its covering, the naked question is, whether ours is a federal or consolidated government; a constitutional or absolute one; a government resting solidly on the basis of the sovereignty of the States, or on the unrestrained will of a majority; a form of government, as in all other unlimited ones, in which injustice, violence, and force must ultimately prevail.'
The War between the States answered that question and produced the foundation for the kind of government we have today: consolidated and absolute, based on the unrestrained will of the majority, with force, threats, and intimidation being the order of the day.
Today’s federal government is considerably at odds with that envisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Thomas J. DiLorenzo gives an account of how this came about in The Real Lincoln: A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War."

Dozens of 'incubators' for jihad found in U.S.
Dozens of 'incubators' for jihad found in U.S.:
"Dozens of mosques around the United States have been identified in a new study as incubators for jihad against America, with more than 80 percent of those surveyed advocating violence.
'Of the 100 mosques surveyed, 51 percent had texts on-site rated as severely advocating violence; 30 percent had texts rated as moderately advocating violence; and 19 percent had no violent texts at all,' said the survey compiled by Mordechai Kedar and David Yerushalmi and published by the Middle East Quarterly.
'How's this for a wake-up call?' asked Frank Gaffney, chief of the Center for Security Policy in a commentary today in the Washington Times.
Find out what's planned for you, in 'Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America,' autographed, from WND's Superstore.
'America's most cherished civil liberties and the Constitution that enshrines them are enabling Muslim Brotherhood operatives and other Islamists who have the declared mission of destroying our freedoms and government 'from within … by [our] hands.' Specifically, our enemies are using our tolerance of religion to create an infrastructure of mosques here that incubate the Islamic holy war called jihad.'

Alex Jones Calls For Global Bilderberg Protest
Alex Jones Calls For Global Bilderberg Protest:
"As the 2011 Bilderberg meeting kicks off in St. Moritz Switzerland, syndicated radio host Alex Jones is calling on all activists worldwide to descend on the site of the secretive confab and stage a massive protest against the criminal elite that have wrecked the global economy, plunged the United States into another unaffordable war in Libya and are now scheming to start yet another war and hike oil prices to levels where Americans will be paying $7 dollars a gallon for gas.
As the Bilderberg group operates behind closed doors and under Chatham House rules, it attracts very little mainstream media attention, despite the fact that hundreds of the worlds most important CEOs, banking elites, politicians and influential media figures annually attend to discuss policy.
A large scale peaceful protest would draw media attention to the gathering and help further expose the group’s history and previous actions."

Ann Coulter: OBAMA: HOPE, CHANGE, AND THE OCCASIONAL SEX DREAM (Ewwwwwww!)
Ann Coulter: OBAMA: HOPE, CHANGE, AND THE OCCASIONAL SEX DREAM (Ewwwwwww!):
"In Part One of my new book -- released this week! -- 'Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America,' I demonstrate that liberals have all the earmarks of mob psychology.
Their myths, slogans, demands for immediate action, messianic goals, demonization of opponents, creation of political idols and occasional resorts to violence -- all this is classic herd behavior.
Because mobs are irrational, immature, subject to wild passions and infatuations, they cannot be reasoned with. And they are always dangerous.
The mob attributes of liberals we will review this week are a crowd's inability to perceive contradictions and its tendency to form an infatuation for an individual.
Consider just one blinding contradiction recently embraced by liberals.
Immediately after Jared Loughner's shooting spree in Tucson, Americans were lectured on civility by the likes of Keith 'the leading terrorist group in this country right now is the Republican Party' Olbermann."

VFW Outraged By Sexual Assaults At VA
VFW Outraged By Sexual Assaults At VA:
"'It is inexcusable for security equipment and incident reporting procedures to be so broken...'
June 08, 2011
The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S. is outraged by news that America's disabled veterans could become a victim of sexual assault when they visit a Department of Veterans Affairs facility.
According to a report released yesterday by the Government Accountability Office, 284 alleged assaults occurred at the VA between January 2007 and July 2010. Included were 67 rapes, 185 cases of inappropriate touching, and other assaults between patients against patients, patients against staff, and staff against patients."

Chuck Baldwin -- Why We Chose The Flathead Valley Of Montana: "Chicago is why the people in Illinois are losing their liberties; Baltimore is why the people in Maryland are losing their liberties; Atlanta is why the people in Georgia are losing their liberties; St. Louis and Kansas City are why the people in Missouri are losing their liberties; Dallas and Houston are why the people in Texas are losing their liberties; Los Angeles and San Francisco are why the people of California are losing their liberties; Portland is why the people of Oregon are losing their liberties; Seattle is why the people of Washington State are losing their liberties; Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and Orlando are why the people of Florida are losing their liberties; Birmingham is why the people of Alabama are losing their liberties, etc., etc.
In order for freedom to be defended, it will require a State, or group of states, to draw a line in the sand against this assault against our liberties, which, for the most part, is being orchestrated by Washington, D.C., and its allies in the big cities.

Dept. of Education breaks down Stockton man's door
Dept. of Education breaks down Stockton man's door:
"Definitely worth reading the article. A synopsis:
This guy's estranged wife was in default on her student loans. So the US Department of Education sends a SWAT team to get her. They break into the guy's house, cuff him, put him and his three kids in the back of a cop car for hours while they toss the house.
The questions raised by this include:
* You'd think they'd get their facts straight before busting the guy's door down. But in the Obama Police State, I guess the facts are only secondary.
* Sending a SWAT team for a defaulted student loan??? WTF???
So what do we hear from the ACLU on this incident? ((crickets))"

But what the Utopians have never realized is that this vision is not universal, it springs from a Western liberal messianism that is big on faith in progressive government, and disdains national and tribal identities. And that means it is a vision that most of the globe does not share.
And is never likely to share. The Utopians want an end to national power and cultural imperialism, but their globalist vision is cultural imperialism backed by national power."

Obama certificate falls short in authenticity [has kerning, which is impossible on a typewriter]:
"... the type on the birth document show evidence of 'kerning,' the squeezing of letters into a line so that they intrude into adjacent letter spaces. Kerning is routine, since the advent of word processors and computers, but impossible with a typewriter.
Denninger explains that in the image above, of the name of the hospital, the 'a' and the 'p' share vertical space on the line.
'This process, of course, requires that you know what the next letter is. With a computer this is pretty easy, since the computer can retroactively go back and adjust, and it also can typeset the current letter with the knowledge of what the previous one was,' he reported. 'A typewriter, on the other hand, is a mechanical device. It does not know what the next letter is that you will type, nor does it know what the last letter was that you typed. It thus has a typeface that always leaves physical space between the boundary of each character.'
'To refute this point you must come up with a typewriter that contains a flux capacitor and thus is capable of accurately predicting the future,' he said. 'This document has been assembled by somebody on a computer.'"

EVIDENCE BROADENS OBAMA NATURAL BORN CONSPIRACY ~ By J.B. Williams

Evidence that we have a fraud and a usurper currently residing in the people’s White House is overwhelming, despite the overt lack of journalistic investigating on the part of the American press. But now new evidence indicates that the conspiracy to carry out that fraud was much broader than originally thought.
The story of whom and what Barack Hussein Obama II really is – is a forty-year story that requires a book, not a column, to tell. Strong evidence suggests that he was being groomed from a very young age for the moment in history that would end American supremacy in the world, and usher in a new era of Global Marxist Governance.
But there was a major hurdle that had to be overcome - the U.S. Constitution, in this case, Article II – Section I – Clause V specifically, which requires that “no person except a natural-born citizen of the United States” can hold the office of President. – Obama is not a natural-born citizen of the United States…and may not even be a legal citizen of the United States. So, how can he be President?
This column focuses upon the period 2003-2008 and the political maneuvers that took place in order to make way for America’s first unconstitutional resident of the White House.

Could Weiner's Marriage To Hillary's Muslim Traveling Aide Huma Be A Hillary-Empowering Sham?
Could Weiner's Marriage To Hillary's Muslim Traveling Aide Huma Be A Hillary-Empowering Sham?:
"Is it time to ask the questions no one dares ask?
Every detective since Sherlock Holmes knew that when all logical explanations have been examined and discarded, it's time to reexamine the 'illogical' and even 'impossible' explanations.
Let's look at what we know as fact.
Ms. Huma Abedin (AKA Ms Anthony Weiner) is the daughter of two prominent Muslims. Her mother even published a newspaper in London telling Muslim women how to be subservient to their husbands, follow the restrictive dictates of the Koran, and still have a 'meaningful' life.
As a young staffer, Ms Abedin, who lived in the gay Adams-Morgan section of DC, received much very faltering media attention, including a 2007 Vogue photo-filled article. In a town of 100,000 single women, many wondered why she got all the attention.
She was Hillary Clinton's 'traveling aide,' AKA 'butt girl' and was never far from Hilary's side, especially on long out-of-country trips.
Washington tongues have always wagged that Hillary was at least Bi, if not entirely gay after having her one 'the plumbing works' baby, Chelsea. Abedin was seen by many as Hillary's 'safe' partner after she was elected to the Senate."

The Rescue Attempt
"Finally, as day was breaking over Makalapa, the
decision was reached. At 0811, Hawaiian time,
some two and a half hours before Wake was to
surrender, Task Force 14 was recalled.
Aboard the Astoria, Saratoga, and Tangier,
reactions varied from astonishment to shame and
anger. There were even some staff officers who
counseled Admiral Fletcher to disregard orders
and make a dash in to Wake. They did not know that
at this very moment, some four enemy heavy
cruisers (Cruiser Division 6) were patrolling
east of Wake, separated from any Japanese carrier
air support by hundreds of miles,[14] a sitting
target for the airmen of the Saratoga; nor did
they know that the Japanese attack force was
disposed about Wake with no apparent measures for
security against surface attack. Had all this
been known, the story of Wake might have been
very different.
But it was not known, and Task Force 14, which
might have relieved Wake, spent most of 23
December refueling its cruisers, and that night
retired on Midway.

It's Time To End Hamilton's Curse by Thomas DiLorenzo
It's Time To End Hamilton's Curse by Thomas DiLorenzo:
"What most Americans probably know about Hamilton is that he was a founding father, one of the authors of The Federalist Papers, and that his picture is on the ten-dollar bill. But he was much more than that, as the above-mentioned writers surely know.
As Jeff Taylor remarked in Where Did the Party Go? William Jennings Bryan, Hubert Humphrey, and the Jeffersonian Legacy, 'Hamilton, under the influence of the two political theorists most distasteful to Jefferson, Hobbes and Hume, was frankly the champion of the leviathan state.'
This is why in my forthcoming book, Hamilton's Curse, I discard Ron Chernow's advice about 'repudiating the modern world' and explain why Hamilton's political and economic legacy must be repudiated if America is to ever again be known as the land of the free.
Hamilton's Curse
Hamilton worshipped government power for its own sake, and sought a government that would seek 'imperial glory' (his words). He disrespected people like Jefferson who believed the primary purpose of government should be the protection of natural rights to life, liberty and property. He frequently complained of 'an excessive concern for liberty in public men' and called for a government of 'more energy.'"

What Hamilton Has Wrought by Thomas DiLorenzo
What Hamilton Has Wrought by Thomas DiLorenzo:
"The current economic crisis is the inevitable consequence of what I call Hamilton's Curse in my new book of that name. It is the legacy of Alexander Hamilton and his political, economic, and constitutional philosophy.
As George Will once wrote, Americans are fond of quoting Jefferson, but we live in Hamilton's country.
The great debate between Hamilton and Jefferson over the purpose of government, which animates American politics to this day, was very much about economic policy. Hamilton was a compulsive statist who wanted to bring the corrupt British mercantilist system — the very system the American Revolution was fought to escape from — to America.
He fought fiercely for his program of corporate welfare, protectionist tariffs, public debt, pervasive taxation, and a central bank run by politicians and their appointees out of the nation's capital.
Jefferson and his followers opposed him every step of the way because they understood that Hamilton's agenda was totally destructive of liberty. And unlike Hamilton, they took Adam Smith's warnings against economic interventionism seriously."

"Our current focus on the salacious versus the historically important is the result of a generation of illiteracy at the hands of a progressive media. Many within this generation receive their news from the intellectually deficient or the deliberately deceptive, from the likes of Jon Stewart to Stephen Colbert and beyond.
Such venues exist as pseudo-news and current event shows for the often factually and morally impaired, and frequently invite equally deficient or deceptive shills as guests to subtly mock issues of substance while pushing matters less taxing to one’s grey matter, all to the cackling delight of an enthusiastic studio audience.
Beyond those popular venues vacant of factual information, we have the actual cable and network news shows engaged in their own methods of deception through their biased depiction or omission. What is reported in these venues is agenda-driven as well. So too is what is not reported, decided at office levels far above the broadcast studios."

Part 1. Bill Clinton.
On December 31, 1969 Oxford student and anti-war activist Bill Clinton came to Moscow through Holland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland for 5-days vacation at expensive 'National' Hotel. His autobiography says the only person he knew in Moscow was Anik “Nikki” Alexis, a daughter of a French diplomat who was now studying at the Patrice Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University. Clinton recalls,
“One night I took a bus out to Lumumba University to have dinner with Nikki and some of her friends” On the bus back home, Clinton says, there was only one other passenger, Oleg Rakito, who “spoke better English than I did” and “asked me lots of questions and told me he worked for the government, virtually admitting he was assigned to keep an eye on me”.
The story is all fake."

Georgia Citizen and County Chairperson Contacts Legislators En Masse about Presidential Eligibility| The Post & Email:
"Our founding fathers were very wise when they chose the verbiage “No person except a natural born Citizen..,” shall be eligible to be President. They instinctively new that as a country we could never allow anyone with divided loyalties to be our Commander in Chief. They were men of few words but we know those words were all well chosen and for one specific purpose. To insure the continuity of our form of government.
Many, including myself, realize the envelope of interpretation to that clause has been widened of late to include the people our founders chose to preclude from consideration for that office and many more, in our state, now humbly ask that this new interpretation be struck down as only one state at a time can now do.
Georgia breeds men and women of character with high moral standards. It is to those men and women, you in particular, I address this concern along with a way to resolve the issue in such a fashion as to show your constituents your deep love and appreciation for our sacred document, The Constitution of the United States, from which all of our blessings for freedom and liberty derive."

The American Conservative � I Don’t Like Ike
The American Conservative � I Don’t Like Ike:
"It’s true that his farewell speech warned against “unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex,” and this is the part that people remember.
But Eisenhower himself entrenched this very machinery in American life, virtually inventing the peacetime armaments industry and imposing military regimentation on the country.
His approach was fundamentally un-American; or, another way to put it, he redefined what it meant to be an American. Instead of a free people, he forged a program for the permanent militarization of the country.
The evidence for this militarization begins with massive increases in military spending. As a percent of total budget outlays, military spending went from 30 percent in 1950 to 70 percent in 1957. This was the largest peacetime buildup in American history.
During a dramatic economic expansion, the president worked to maintain a high military spending level as a percentage of the rising GDP—establishing the modern precedent that military socialism is integral to the economic life of the country.
Spending rose in absolute terms every year he was president, from $358 billion in 1952 to $585 billion in the last budget for which he bore responsibility in 1962, a whopping 63.4 percent increase during the Eisenhower years."

"Indeed, the entire Cold War ideology was invented by Harry Truman and his advisers in 1948 as:
1.) a political trick to keep from losing more congressional backing,
2.) a way to circumvent political pressure for postwar disarmament, and
3.) a method to maintain U.S. industrial dependence on government spending, particularly with regard to American corporations operating overseas.
It was an unprecedented form of peacetime socialism, designed to appeal to big business, and Eisenhower became its spokesman.
Savvy libertarians knew exactly what was going on and supported Cold War opponent Robert Taft for the Republican nomination in 1952.
But the nomination was effectively stolen by Eisenhower, with massive establishment backing. He repaid his backers with his support and expansion of Truman’s program."

American's Two-Party System is a Hoax
American's Two-Party System is a Hoax:
"One of my readers directed me to Dr. Samuel Blumenfeld's 'Why Conservatives Need to Back the Republican Party'. While I don't usually comment on a fellow author's column I thought it appropriate in this case because Blumenfeld brings up several key points that I often hear by my readers in defense of why they stay with the Republican Party.
The most common defense is that 'third' parties are unable to raise the money to win elections and winning elections is what politics is all about. That might be good logic for a non-Christian, but isn't that atheistic logic? Unfortunately there is hardly a one of us who has not been adversely affected in some area of our thinking by our secular humanist culture. We are thinking too much like the world.
Just ask yourself, how often has God worked against evil on the side of the majority or on the side with the most money? Our duty is not to 'win' elections. Like with every other aspect of our lives, even at election time, a Christian's main concern should be to bring glory to God - He will provide the results."....................

U.N. Agreement Should Have All Gun Owners Up In Arms
U.N. Agreement Should Have All Gun Owners Up In Arms:
"1. Enact tougher licensing requirements, creating additional bureaucratic red tape for legal firearms ownership.
2. Confiscate and destroy all “unauthorized” civilian firearms (exempting those owned by our government of course).
3. Ban the trade, sale and private ownership of all semi-automatic weapons (any that have magazines even though they still operate in the same one trigger pull – one single “bang” manner as revolvers, a simple fact the ant-gun media never seem to grasp).
4. Create an international gun registry, clearly setting the stage for full-scale gun confiscation.
5. In short, overriding our national sovereignty, and in the process, providing license for the federal government to assert preemptive powers over state regulatory powers guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment in addition to our Second Amendment rights.

Government programs have accomplished what slavery Could not..They’ve destroyed the black family
Government programs have accomplished what slavery Could not..They’ve destroyed the black family:
"Then Walter Williams crystallized my thinking when he made the observation that government programs had accomplished what slavery could not do and what Jim Crow laws could not do… they destroyed the black family.
The numbers are stark. Williams points out that up until the 1940’s between 75 & 90 percent of all black children were being raised in two parent homes while today the number is less than 1/3.
He continued, pointing out that the illegitimacy rate amongst blacks was 18% in 1940 but ballooned to 72.5% in 2008. In a 1985 documentary he suggested that government programs, with their “good intentions” had led America’s black families into Hell.

Read This Book! by Ron Paul
Read This Book! by Ron Paul:
"One of the most important lessons Judge Napolitano teaches is how many shared premises there are by advocates of big government from both the right and the left. For example, Judge Napolitano exposes how both the conservatives' war on marijuana and the liberals' war on tobacco are manifestations of paternalism — the idea that government has the legitimate authority to stop adults from doing bad things, like smoking substances that politicians and bureaucrats do not approve of. Of course, smoking, whether of marijuana or tobacco, does have negative health consequences — but respecting the right of individuals to be wrong, as long as they do not interfere with the rights of others, is one of the pillars of a free society.
Lies the Government Told You also avoids the all-too-common error of drawing a distinction between 'personal' liberty and 'economic' liberty, and focusing on attacks on one type of freedom while ignoring or even supporting attacks on the other category of liberty."

Would the US Military Stand Down and ‘Empower a Revolution’ If Faced With Riots and Civil Unrest? by Mac Slavo
Would the US Military Stand Down and ‘Empower a Revolution’ If Faced With Riots and Civil Unrest?
EXCERPT...
The US and Western coalitions pick and choose which innocent civilians are worthy of saving, and many have suggested that this is due to one specific reason. If you haven’t guessed, it’s closely related to the oil and gas reserves in the region, but according to Conn Hallinan, it’s a much broader strategy that boils down to regional energy control.
The Saudis, being close allies of the US (for today, at least) have a pass to cleanse protesters who would threaten stability. Libya, of course, is lead by a dictator, thus he has to go – just like the Syrian leadership.
Among the many inconsistencies with what’s playing out in the middle east is the question of what our President and Secretary of Defense would ask our own military to do if political protests, riots and violence erupted here in the US. Both seem to suggest that the leaders of these middle eastern countries, as well as their law enforcement and military apparatuses, should stand aside.
Would the President of the United States, if faced with riots, molotov cocktails, and gun fire outside of the Capitol building or White House allow the military to “empower a revolution driven by unmet political and economic grievances” of the people?
Estimates suggest that Mubarak resigned amid as many as 2 million protesters in the streets. This is about 3% of Egypt’s population.
If the United States saw similar turnouts at Federal and State government buildings, would our leadership resign without a fight as well? Are we to believe that the same logic being used to compel dictators in the middle east to step down would be applied domestically if the people, in a public show of protest, deemed our government to be tyrannical and it’s leaders dictators?
Moreover, does this mean that any such civil disobedience, riots, and gunfire would be ignored by military and law enforcement, who would be ordered to, as Mr. Gates suggested to Syria, stand on the sidelines?
We’d like to believe it is that easy, except we live in a little place we like to call reality.

Russians could ask Donald Trump to stop his own investigation (Trump met Russian leader Putin and stated that America needs a president like him), but he will run for president in 2012 and he has to press Obama (Trump says 'no', but polls say 'yes').

1) resign or just disappear and go back to Russia
2) commit suicide or wait until Hillary Clinton's clan kills him with my help, though I can tell Robert Mueller, Leon Panetta and Mark Sullivan one more time - I'm not coming back, I will not kill 'Barack Obama' or anybody else, stop calling me and sending agents to get me back

A River of Race Runs Through It
A River of Race Runs Through It:
"We have discovered that just about anything you can say about Obama, besides ‘Messiah’ is some sort of racist code word. Two years it was revealed that calling him a socialist is racist. This week we learned that calling him European is also a slur. Calling him a ‘European Socialist’ might just qualify as a hate crime.
This isn’t really about racism. If it were, much more overtly racist comments made in private by top Democrats like Harry ‘light-skinned with no negro dialect’ Reid or Bill ‘Obama would be getting us coffee’ Clinton, would have lasted for more than a 5 minute news cycle of outrage. It’s about the political uses of race. The bigotry farming that makes racism into a constant part of the political landscape.
To Democrats, racism isn’t a problem. It’s a solution
To Democrats, racism isn’t a problem. It’s a solution. Their speeches about looking forward to the end of racism, are as genuine as oil executives talking about the day when we get all our energy from the sun. Sure it sounds good in theory, but it would also put them out of business. One day we’ll all join hands and sing about brotherhood. But today we’ve got to go on MSNBC and explain how objecting to higher taxes is coded racism."

GM chief pushing for higher gas taxes. (Obama Motors Shafts Public)
GM chief pushing for higher gas taxes. (Obama Motors Shafts Public):
"Detroit — General Motors Co. CEO Dan Akerson wants the federal gas tax boosted as much as $1 a gallon to nudge consumers toward more fuel-efficient cars, and he's confident the government will soon shed its remaining 26 percent stake in the once-bankrupt automaker.
'I actually think the government will be out this year — within the next 12 months, hopefully within the next six months,' Akerson said in a two-hour interview with The Detroit News last week.
He is grateful for the government's rescue of GM — 'I have nothing but good things to say about them' — but Akerson said the time for that relationship to end is coming because it's wearing on GM.
“It’s kind of like your in-laws: It was a nice long weekend. We didn’t say a week,” Akerson said with a laugh.
And while he is eager to say goodbye to the government as a part owner of GM, Akerson would like to see it step up to the challenge of setting a higher gas tax, as part of a comprehensive energy policy.
A government-imposed tax hike, Akerson believes, will prompt more people to buy small cars and do more good for the environment than forcing automakers to comply with higher gas-mileage standards."

Comic Chris Titus hints at assassinating Palin ‘if she gets elected president’
Comic Chris Titus hints at assassinating Palin ‘if she gets elected president’:
"Sometimes there is a line that is crossed between what appropriate for comedy and what’s likely off limits. But did comic Christopher Titus cross that line?
In an appearance on Monday’s “The Adam Carolla Show” podcast, Titus may have waded into that territory. In responding to a question about former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” in which Palin defended her interpretation of what happened during Paul Revere’s pre-Revolutionary War famous ride, Titus launched into a description of what he would do if Palin were elected.
“You know what man?” Titus said. “I am going to literally — if she gets elected president, I am going to hang out on the grassy knoll all the time, just loaded and ready — because you know what? It’s for my country. It’s for my country. If I got to sacrifice myself, it’s for my country.”

Will Washington Foment War Between China and India? by Paul Craig Roberts:
"What is Washington’s solution for the rising power of China?
The answer might be to involve China in a nuclear war with India.
The staging of the fake death of bin Laden in a commando raid that violated Pakistan’s sovereignty was sold to President Obama by the military/security complex as a way to boost Obama’s standing in the polls.
The raid succeeded in raising Obama’s approval ratings. But its real purpose was to target Pakistan and to show Pakistan that the US was contemplating invading Pakistan in order to make Pakistan pay for allegedly hiding bin Laden next door to Pakistan’s military academy. The neocon, and increasingly the US military position, is that the Taliban can’t be conquered unless NATO widens the war theater to Pakistan, where the Taliban allegedly has sanctuaries protected by the Pakistan government, which takes American money but doesn’t do Washington’s bidding."
