America Is Failing Itself At Our Expense

Has everyone forgotten we have never caught the Anthrax mailers right here in America? How can we say we are trying to protect Americans when we are more concerned with Iraq than we are of catching the Anthrax mailer who was based here in America? You can tell me that as well as terrorism we have a duty to see democracy in the Middle East but I merely ask you to look at Pakistan. In Pakistan we have a country that has made a deal with the Taliban and now allows the Taliban to operate freely within its borders. Imagine the American companies who outsource to Pakistan are actually supporting a country that has an element hell-bent on seeing its destruction, how ironic, or idiotic, is that? Let’s also not forget Pakistan is a nuclear country, you better watch out India. Then we have the freedoms of Iraq, yeah freedom to commit crimes and atrocities almost beyond human comprehension. And what is the current Administrations answer to inhumane terrorists in Iraq, Give them our jobs. I must stop and ask, ‘What is going on in regards to the war on terror?’ How can a 40 billion dollar war in Iraq be nearing 1 trillion dollars and no one is being held criminally responsible? And in regards to jobs, they did not have jobs in Iraq before the war so why is it our job to create them for them now? How about worrying about America first?

We give Pakistan a free pass in regards to the war on terror and yet they are one of the figureheads in this war. They have Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, they have A.K. Khan in Pakistan, they have the Taliban in Pakistan, and they have weapons of Mass Destruction in Pakistan. What is the American response to these issues? It appears the answer is to just keep up the war in Iraq. Every element of terror is sitting right under our noses in Pakistan and yet we do nothing, how can this be justified?

Its time we get things in order and handle our business in the Middle East. Its time we quit handling the situation with kids gloves, its time to lay the goon hand down and get this failed policy righted in the right direction. We need to hit terrorism hard in Iran, Pakistan, and Iraq. We need to deal a lethal blow in one swoop and move on. We can stay and piddle in Iraq for years and waste tons of valuable resources or we can do it the way it should be done and get on with the business of getting on.

While we waste billions on a useless and failed policy China, India, and many other countries are spending on infrastructure and education. If America does not get back in the economic and educational game we will become the future Russia of the world. We will be a busted nation once known as a superpower. If you don’t think it could happen they said the same thing in Russia, it can happen and it will happen if American leadership does not right the American boat.
