Merry Christmas ?

Playing Games

Looking at blogs tonight, I read a few that mentioned Iran's large scale war games.

It is deer season where I live, and I am busy stocking the freezer, so I am not so much into the news channel on the weekend.

Don't get me wrong, I still care what is happening in our country, and I do keep informed, but if I do not take a break from the madness that is erupting out of our nations capitol, I think I will pull my hair out.

Anyway, On a particular site, I read about the games, and my blog hopping stopped and I went to my news sources on the net.

From what I gather, this 5 day drill is being run by Gen. Ahmad Mighani, who is the head of the air force unit that responds to threats in Iran's air space

Practice protecting their airspace from intruders, yeah that sounds reasonable

I wonder if it has anything to do with the S-300 Anti-Aircraft missiles they are waiting for that are coming from Russia ?

You know, the ones that were delayed because of what Iran claims, were not delivered because the United States and Israel pressured Russia not to send ?

How much longer are we going to deal with this nut job ? and for that matter, how much longer are we going to play " cops " over there in the middle east ?

We need to approach this problem like a band-aid, rip it off fast in one swipe.

That is what should have happened over there, level the place, wipe it out, burn it down, and then till it under, start all over again.

Yeah, yeah, I know, innocent women and children, civilians, and all that.

Look, they are getting killed every day, and they make no effort to get away, or try to end the problems, some aid the Taliban. If they are sacrificing now, just throw all the cards on the table and be done with it

Punishment ?

Obama is calling for some type of punishment for the missile launch n North Korea this weekend, but as many expected, Russia and China are just waving the incident off

Because of our economic problems, and the lack of a strong hand by our Commander in Chief, the United States appears to be weak, and other countries will use it to their advantage

Did the missile head our way ? Was it even aimed at us ?

Well, yes and no, because it was clearly not some type of " attack ", but it was a worldwide demonstration of what North Korea has to offer

Obama can call for punishment all he wants, but as long as a rock star is leading this nation, we will not be taken seriously in the world.

This is the first of many tests that Obama will face, and they will become more frequent and eventually more deadly, so you have to wonder

Can Obama protect this country ?
