The Global community has become more "tranquil"

According to Josh Earnest, and we have President Obama to thank
for this. Once I was done LMAO I was truly saddened to realize
that they truly believe this. Can we say "out of touch"?
[quote]President Obama has described his foreign-policy doctrine
as an attempt to hit singles, doubles and the occasional home
run. But at this stage of the game, it looks as though he has
popped out, grounded into a double play and been hit by a pitch.
His attorney general, Eric Holder, said Sunday that the threat
of undetectable explosives from Syria is “more frightening than
anything” he has experienced in office. And the Wall Street
Journal ran a front-page article Monday reporting that “the
breadth of global instability now unfolding hasn’t been seen
since the late 1970s” and that “U.S. global power seems
increasingly tenuous.”
The Journal’s catalogue of woes — civil wars in Iraq and Syria,
hostilities between Israel and the Palestinians, an electoral
crisis in Afghanistan, tension with Russia over Ukraine,
floundering nuclear negotiations with Iran and renewed Chinese
expansionism — didn’t include the current crisis on the United
States’ Southern border.[/quote]

More tranquil than what? Eastern Europe during WWII? What a
joke.

A Malaysian plane shot down over rebel controlled Ukraine. The
rebels have bragged about shooting down two Ukrainian jets
earlier in the week. You wanna bet this has Putin's
fingerprints on it?

Elsewhere in the land of tranquility, Israel has launched a
ground offensive into Gaza.

I'm thinking more on the lines of the Saudi controlled Chechen
fighters. Saudi is still pissed about the Syrian issue awhile
back.

Meanwhile our Campaigner in Chief is off doing what he does
best, campaigning. Four Americans killed in Libya and it's off
to Vegas to campaign. 10's of thouands of illegals infiltrating
out border and he's too busy to make a stop during a campaign
visit nearby. 20+ Americans shot out of the sky and it's off to
campaign. Israel is sending ground troops into Gaza but let's
not keep that minor incident from raising money for the DNC.
Definitely a clear lack of priorities.

Innocent people in a plane shot down from the sky. Burnt bodies
shown on the news sites. Isn't it something what a body has to
endure in a lifetime? This morning I yelled in pain as I removed
a band aid then I immediately felt ashamed of myself for not
being able to withstand something so minor.

I have to disagree. While for most of them I imagine you are
right but, seeing some uncensored video would show that some
just might have known.

Interesting, listening to Russia's statement to the UN. They
never came out and said they had nothing to do with it, but they
did blame the plane's pilots for flying over Ukraine. Really
compassionate people. Like blaming the rape victim.

Heinz-Kerry made the rounds on the Sunday talk shows as is
common for the Obama administration trying to push their views.
I was a little astounded by the answer to some of the
questioning. When asked about applying more sanctions to Russia
after it's support in the downing of the passenger plane, his
reply was, "we just added new sanctions on them the day before".
All I have to say to that is "yeah, and?"
I wish my parents would have been that way, saying "Well I don't
need to ground you for what you did today because I grounded you
for what you did yesterday."

Two more Ukrainian planes shot down. I guess Putin's learned
his lesson.
I guess I don't get it, we send Iraq soldiers and drones and
they hate us.
We negotiate with the biggest sponsor of terrorism, Iran and
they hate us.
An ally like Ukraine we send socks and MRE's.
The idea that if Putin continues to be a bad actor the rest of
the world will isolate him is laughable. That is the biggest
flaw in the Obama strategy. Putin is like the European crack
dealer. Oil is his crack and he will never be isolated. The US
needs to step up oil and natural gas production and make Putin a
smaller player on the world stage.
