Solution?

20ooo more troops.... hmmmmm

ladies and gentlemen something must be wrong with me. I find myself agreeing with Bush for the first time ever.

Wish:
The reality of the Iraqi situation is such that America should never have invaded to begin with

Reality:
But the did and as such they have on their hands a sh*t storm to deal with

Responsibility:
It is now the responsibility of the American ppl (who elected this moron to begin with) to deal with the situation at hand. Just pulling out troops after you have screwed a country over is not the way to go.. I point you to what happened to Afghanistan. Look, if you created a monster you need to tame it or else it WILL bite you

Policy:
Now as for the US policy? I think the US should stop using diplomacy as a last resort.... oh sorry..... they dont use diplomacy at all do they.
Force is needed and soldiers need get what ever resource there is to help them do their Jobs. and so I agree with the 20 thou extra troops.. What I want to see is what they are going to do. They can either help or make the situation worse. Lets hope for the best... oh wait he's in for another 2 yrs isn't he.... DAMN! OK screw that... hush Iraq.

Talk:
You know in all of this both Syria and Iran can help the Americans greatly in returning order to Iraq however being the 'Axis point' on Satan's Domain on earth the of course will do nothing to help these Saints who only wish to do the lords work by bending the Iraqi ppl over and taking their oil....

Talk:
Like it or not America will not get anywhere until they can reach an arrangement with both countries... You know the amazing thing The president of Syria, in a BBC interview, announced that he wanted to talk.. but
of course the Bush administration is to (beeeeeeeeep) to do so. Now dont get me wrong the Syrians are going to make sure that they get the better end of the stick in any talks they have With the US. Right now they are sitting pretty quietly helping Palestinians, Lebanese and Iraqi's make life difficult for the Bush and his allies.
The reality is it will come to a point where they realize that they are beating their heads against a wall.... At least Blair seems to begin to realize this... seeing that Bush doesn't really have much off a brain to damage we have to wait for the next election. Once they do and they start talking I believe allot of these 'terrorist groups' will find themselves in trouble....

Reality check:
Then again even as I type this I know I am being an Idealist... I do believe talks are necessary but how effective will they be??? will the world ever find peace?

World Affairs titbits

1) "I plan to emulate the graetest Socialist that ever lived, Jesus Christ"

Those were the words of Hugo Chavez when giving his inauguartion speech... this man is a real thugi-thug
DWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2) So in an interview recently a US diplomat referred to Castro and Chavez as being arsonist..... I know! I know! Doesn't sound like much.. but for a state official/Diplomat to use such strong words on BBC is unusual.... oh wait... My bad Totally forgot the "The Devil was here yesterday" speech... ah well try again US.. no oner and I mean NO ONE can top that speech TUFFFF!!!!!
Those of you who had the privileged of seeing the speech, mark that day as the day the UN saw the wickidess speech it had ever heard.... HYPE!!!

3) Again the the US has done it... WHY THE **** , (calm down )
It turns out that the US unilaterally launched air strikes in Somalia recently. Now, I don't care who you said you were attacking but to violate the sovereignty of a nation and to attack anywhere u please unilaterally is just @#$%^&*#@!!!!!!!!!!
In any case within days of assuming leadership of the UN the new Secretary general has felt the need to speak out against the actions of the almighty F*** the world don't ask me for S**** United States. Of course, he as only succeeded in reminding the world of the impotence of the UN against the awsome might of (beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep)

4) Ortega is president (raised eyebrow)... my, the world has changed... or has it?

Death ofa dictator

On the 30th day of the 12th month in the year of our Lord 2006 the world rejoiced as man was hung by neck the until dead.

A truly proud moment for the Human race.

I do not dispute that fact that this man committed evil deeds, yet it is clear that that his trial was a mere formality a true mockery of what justice should stand for... Just because the whole world THINKS someone is evil should we do away fair trials.

I would have felt better if he was tried before an international tribunal. At least there the law is followed to the letter (or at least so it seems).

I don't know how I feel about the death penalty, there are times I support it and there are other times I feel its barbaric and it reduces us to the level of those who we wish to kill.

In either case I felt a bit repulsed with the way we all were glad that a human life was snuffed out.... It felt wrong.

I'm Bak?

Lo and Behold, it seems that the powers that be have deemed it fit to return access to the blogosphere to the plebeians. As as result I am back.... at least until they decide to remove my access to the wonderful universe again

Farewell.... for now

And so it came to pass that the security ppl of my glorious organization deemed Blogger a dire threat to the survival of the company. So extreme was this threat that they blocked all access to this domain. Seeing that I do not (as yet) have internet at home, I am no longer able to comment on blogs.

Fortunately, the great Google has saved me wth their online Feed reader and I am now able to follow what you have posted (yay! for me!... ALL HAIL GOOGLE OVERLORD OF ALL THAT IS INTERNET) . But I still had the desire to blog, as a result I have been forced to resume My bologging (*** Insert Darth Vader Theme Music Here***) on MSN Spaces.

To Be Or Not To Be...

And so it came to pass that locks were placed on the doors to our beloved lovebird because the caretakers, being a bit strapped for cash, had not paid the bills.
In the face of such Heart rending news the leader of our opposition came out with a statement that shook me to my core;

“For God’s sake let the airline die!”

I was hurt, simply because It is a symbol of national Pride, more importantly my national pride.

The more Apathetic ones amongst us see this as no reason to flog what they consider to be a dead horse.
In my view Drastic changes will be needed to keep the airline afloat, Indeed the staff off Air J as well as we tax payers may need to, as or “Esteemed” former prime minister once said,

“Suck salt through wooden spoon”.

The importance of having a sense of national pride in the citizens of a country is Striking, But then that’s what you get when Economist Run the world (sorry SM).

Look, there is more to Governance than balancing the budget. The leadership of a country is there to keep the country moving forward and prosperous. Now what we often forget is that Prosperity does not only mean financial wellness in fact the exact Definition is; (Dictionary.com)

a successful, flourishing, or thriving condition

I cannot see how you can say you trying to do this when you are taking away from the people some of the very things that motivate people to move forward.. sigh
To be honest I think you cant put a price tag on national pride, there comes a point where some things are folly, But until EVERY LAST AVENUE has been be explored then, and only then ,would I consider shutting Air Jamaica down.


This is the Seeker and I am JAMAICAN.
