There’s no doubt in my mind that if the U.S. simply left the Middle East or stopped supporting Israel, as a certain Republican presidential hopeful advocates, the world would be left in a much more precarious and perilous state. I doubt that things like the Israelis seizing North Korean nuclear material from Syria would have been able to occur without our sanction and support.
Israeli commandos seized nuclear material of North Korean origin during a daring raid on a secret military site in Syria before Israel bombed it this month, according to informed sources in Washington and Jerusalem.
The attack was launched with American approval on September 6 after Washington was shown evidence the material was nuclear related, the well-placed sources say.
They confirmed that samples taken from Syria for testing had been identified as North Korean. This raised fears that Syria might have joined North Korea and Iran in seeking to acquire nuclear weapons.

This is not the first time a liberal newspaper has misportrayed what is actually going on in Iraq, nor will this be the last. Those against the presence of our soldiers in the Middle East will continue to do or say what they think will continue to sway public opinion even more against the war on terror taking place. Continue reading ‘WaPo Iraq Reporting Conflicts With Reality’
Is it me, or does it just not make any sense to (1) release murderers into society and then (2) give them money? Well, it seems that Israel is doing just that: Israel Agrees to Release 250 Palestinian Prisoners. Continue reading ‘Israel to Release Palestinian Prisoners’
Chris Hitchens writes about Tunisia and makes it sound like a halfway decent place. Actually, it sounds like Tunisia could be the best place to live in Africa, but as always there are some caveats. Continue reading ‘Nicest Country in Africa: Tunisia’
Judicial Watch uncovers even MORE documents regarding the flights out of this country that our government allowed to the damn Saudis. It blows my mind. All of these people we let go should have been detained indefinitely. Continue reading ‘More Docs Uncovered Regarding Chartered Saudi Flights’
