As we all know, the "Yellow Peril" or "Red Menace" or whatchacallit Chinkies and the Russkies are getting stronger and stronger and are very capable of retaliation --- and to such an extent that folks who despise them will regret bigtime! I think the West has become too soft and overconfident of its capabilities of attack and defense. For example, Afghanistan and Iraq were supposed to have been easy pushovers but they turned out not to be the case. Americans were lied to and fooled into believing that the Afghan and Iraq "Jihadists" are very dangerous and it was vital to fight and kill them in Afghanistan and Iraq so we don't have to fight them here. By the way, Iran was despised from1979 on. But, hey, look what they were able to achieve over the years. They even captured a very sophisticated American drone in December 2011! American propaganda was so effective from late 2001 on that many Americans were suckered into believing Iraq was also responsible for 9/11 when that was not true at all, and that Jihadists lurked in every nook and cranny and were ready to pounce on Americans! Remember the yellow, orange and red alerts posted regularly by the media? Actually they were false alarms and perpetrated to prepare Americans mentally for the Patriot Act and later NDAA which effectively abrogated your freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. As someone has said, "The Constitution is just a piece of paper (toilet paper)", and "FUCK No foreign entanglements!" (i.e. forget about not interfering in the business of other countries.) Well, you know the consequences. Not pretty, right? Enuff said. PS. Why was Iraq condemned as a co-conspirator in 9/11? As an excuse to justify American invasion! Boy o Boy! What a costly and enervating invasion! Things calmed down only when General Petraeus deployed a new weapon ---- bigtime bribes!!!
