The Press FINALLY Strikes Back

Great.

Of course, the corporate press finds its balls under the Obama administration and not the Bush administration.

Typical.

But oh well.

It sounds like things weren't handled as well as they could have been.

It sounds like more of the typical denial and ignorance that plagues US foreign policy and US foreign policy makers.

And we suffer as a result of their willful ignorance about the times, cultures and contexts that they find themselves in, all for a bunch of poorly chosen priorities that could be avoided if the government actually found their balls to say "no" to the individualized private interests that are plaguing our country, society and democracy at their own, actual expenses.

It's literally maddening to watch the poor choices and self "interests" that we try to fulfill around the world.

But, that is the product of our leaderships' brains and our society's brains as well.

They're changeable.

But THEY'VE got to want to change.

And I don't think that's the case.

Therefore.

Removal is the best option, if they are unwilling or unable to adapt to conditions on the ground.

And that's going to happen whether you like it or not, and whether you believe it or not, if they don't change themselves and their attitudes, perspectives, conceptions and actions.

Seriously, you'd call al-Qaeda to be something other than derived from US policy in the region and toward the people/culture that lives there?

Think about it.
