Seymour Hersh is flat wrong about the bin laden mission his story is BS. But his career is on the upswing now. CNN was happy to spin the story as "Obama is a Liar." They got their ratings. This is Republican campaign strategy smoke and mirrors swift-boat style. If it smells like Bush family politricks at work again? It is. Republicans are desperate to regain power but it will be 16-20 years before any Republican will be elected President again. Obama's critics use every foreign policy conspiracy theory they find (or invent) and the US right wing and US critics eat it up.
What has been President Obama's top 5 foreign policy blunders? I don't know of any. His diplomacy and military leadership has been outstanding. The President communicates US policy effectively and has repeatedly shown wisdom, and restraint while wielding US power to help solve problems in the world in a thoughtful and intelligent way. His success as Commander-in-chief and the success of the CIA and military against al qaeda has been a major achievement that every American and American allie should celebrate. |

Not sure what to make of Hersh. I think he brought up some interesting points but it is essentially impossible to fact-check because he uses secret undisclosed sources. He blames Obama for using Bin Laden as political advantage.
Duh? What was Iraq all about? Not 9/11 but they hedged and took advantage of that situation too. All I know is America is turning into a Stalinist Police-State like the Gulags with for-profit Prison corporations. Google the "cash for kids" scandal in Pennsylvania, it's disgusting. Mexican-American U.S. Citizen whose father was Vietnam Vet ended up in ICE detention prison for over 1 year due to "clerical error", while the for-profit corporation bilks taxpayers for $. @Sod - you're conflating facts. Just because Chevron and other American business interests are sending $ and negotiating trade deals does not equate to U.S. Govt conspiracy to invade Ukraine. The Ukraine govt is free to make their own decisions. Last time I checked we don't have boots on ground. Also point fingers all you want but FACT, the Baltic states have asked for military assistance, not vice versa. The articles Dima cites also blames Germany and accuses them of trying to form a Fourth Reich, etc. Completely pie in the sky. |

Russian gangsters "thieves in law" have been quiet these days. In America we had huge Motorcycle gangster war, with 9 people killed and 200 arrested. Russian govt must be cracking down on the gangs. In America they are growing stronger, Jails are full the max, no more space. |

The sending of this letter isn't connected to the recent events, the possible submarine sighting or the Ukraine trouble. It was planned to send this letter to Finnish reservists already in 2011 I think. So it's the media blowing this up and making it something it isn't. I will get one of these letters too, I wish I could tell you guys what's in it but my lips (and fingers) are sealed. You see it's top secret. |
