Crazy Warmonger Gates Attacks Obama For Trying To Escape Afghanistan Trap

Former Pentagon leader Gates has published this whiny, imperial rot book whereby he complains that Obama isn’t enough of a crazed warmonger like previous Bilderberg/AIPAC rulers.  He, himself, boasts about going into Afghanistan briefly under impressive armed protection to tell the Americans stuck there that he ‘loved’ them and he frets why Obama couldn’t go there and spread some man on man love, too.  This, from a homophobic military man strikes me as rather funny since he obviously can’t see how insane he really is.  Do you send men you adore to a death trap to die for no reason?  Only if you have very strange seething sexual bizarre impulses.

So this war criminal has written a book about invading Poland and China…oops, wrong war criminals!  Instead, totally firm in the faith that it is OK to violate the Nuremberg protocols set by the Nazi trials about the legality of invading other nations, Mr. Gates waxes indignant that Obama isn’t a total warmonger like his previous boss, Bush Jr.:  Book review: ‘Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War’ by Robert M. Gates – The Washington Post

 

Joe Biden haters will enjoy Gates’s description of the vice president as loud, garrulous and obsessed with politics over substance. “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” Gates writes. He accuses the vice president of poisoning Obama’s relationship with his generals: “I thought Biden was subjecting Obama to Chinese water torture, every day saying, ‘the military can’t be trusted.’ ”

 

Gates admires Obama’s decisiveness and smarts, but accuses him of sending troops to fight and die in support of a strategy in Afghanistan that, according to Gates, the president himself believed would fail. “I never doubted Obama’s support for the troops, only his support for their mission,” Gates writes.

 

He recounts his thoughts during a tense 2011 meeting with Obama and Gen. David H. Petraeus, then in charge of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, in the White House Situation Room: “As I sat there I thought: The president doesn’t trust his commander, can’t stand Karzai, doesn’t believe in his own strategy and doesn’t consider the war to be his. For him, it’s all about getting out.”…

 

He compares Obama unfavorably with Bush, who “had no second thoughts about Iraq, including our decision to invade.”

He also believes using assassin drones is smart.  The idea that the invasion of Iraq wasn’t even slightly legal doesn’t bother Gates for one minute.  There were no WMD there, the UN team found exactly nothing, Gates and Bush claimed they were wrong and then…found exactly nothing after kicking out the UN observers and attacking.  I waited for the US media and the UN to announce the arrest of these warmongers and nothing happened.

Now Iraq is an insane, brutal, destructive mess and thousands of Iraqis continue to die daily and this is 100% the fault of the illegal invasion.  The fact that these two wars put the US very deep into debt is also ignored by Gates and the Bush team.  Obama Wants to Repeal Iraq War Authorization is great news but warmonger Gates is probably furious that we don’t pour another trillion down that toilet.  On the other hand, the warmongers who run the military/industrial complex wanted more sales but the White House Blasts Senate for Blocking Iraq Arms Sales because our government is very divided since the GOP doesn’t believe in supporting any Democrats except if they are giving money to Israel.  Then there is near 100% support.

50 Senators Now Cosponsor Iran Sanctions Bill which pretty much kills any attempt at diplomacy and leaves only one option, war.  AIPAC wants this war so the corrupt Senators want this war and a lot of money has changed hands as they push us into another trillion dollar disaster.  All our European allies want desperately to stop the anti-Iran nonsense so the Brit diplomat, Straw says Iran has inalienable right to nuclear energy while in Iran on a little business visit.  Iran wants Japan to help it build nuclear plants so Abe wants diplomacy, not AIPAC war, too.

Here is the news in Iran today;  Iran nuclear deal close to implementation: U.S. – Tehran Times

Asked where things stand with the Iranians and the implementation agreement on the nuclear deal, Marie Harf said in her daily briefing, “We have made good progress in our discussions about implementation. The last step in the process was folks coming back to capitals for the holidays to consult on a few issues. Hopefully we’ll have some upcoming travel either this week or hopefully very soon for our folks, for our team to head back for additional discussions. And hopefully we can finalize it soon. We’re very close; we just have to finalize some of the details.”

 

The right wingers in Iran are telling the present government they are fools to trust the US.  These ‘details’ delaying the end of sanctions are a scam to hide the fact that Saudi Arabia doesn’t want Iran selling Europe any oil due to this cutting into the royal profits from such sales and Israel is dead set against this for other reasons.  So the Senators, working for both entities even if this hurts US citizens, will do the wrong thing for the wrong reasons.

Which is why we were defeated in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Our motives were illicit or outright evil and had nothing to do with bin Laden, al Qaeda or 9/11 and this was deliberate stupidity, not accidental and was done because US citizens have no say in their own government except when it comes to things the elites don’t care much about.  Then we are allowed some small representation.

The Iranians will never see any end of sanctions unless they allow their country to be invaded and totally wrecked.  I warned them about this in the past.  They have no choice, it is struggle against the Saudi/US/Israel troika or suicidal cooperation with being disarmed.  Both Gaddafi and Saddam chose to negotiate and disarm and instantly were amputated and their countries turned into a smoking ruin with people butchering each other.

I don’t expect the Iranians to read my blog.  I make predictions and suggestions but few listen because we are in a system whereby internationalists are all about fomenting ethnic warfare, religious strife and hatred so they can be divided and exploited by international bankers and arms merchants.  This, in turn, will cause WWIII.
