Yesterday was a good day, because one of my enemies was dead. Now, today, we must return to concern. Let us discuss WWI.
It all started with the assassination of one Archduke name Franz Ferdinand, of Austria-Hungary. Austria-Hungary's government blamed Serbia, and soon went to war with them. Russia declared war on Austria-Hungary, because they were buddies with Serbia. Of course, Germany wanted to help its own friend, Austria-Hungary. The French were friends with Russia, meanwhile, so they get in the conflict too. The UK at first stayed out of the war, but when Germany invaded Belgium (attacking it just to get to France), well, the UK was friends with Belgium, so in they come. All the while, Turkey, who had recently lost much of its land thanks to Serbia becoming its own nation, got in to fight with them. Greece was a long time friend of Serbia, so here they come to protect their allies. Bulgaria, much like Serbia, used to be part of Turkey, and the Bulgaria had recently acquired lands that Serbia and Greece thought should be theirs, so they come into the fight against those two countries. Romania, both an ally of Russia and an enemy of Bulgaria, enters the fray. And then we find Italy, who at first sided with Austria-Hungary and Germany, then later changed sides fearing the loss of land to the north.
Later, the Germans were sinking US cargo ships, much to our anger, and sent a message to Mexico encouraging them to invade the US southern lands, that was intercepted. That, apparently, was enough for us, and we went in and showed Germany how we felt about it.
I know, ridiculous, isn't it? Europe and places close to it was a giant web of entangling alliances, loyalties, and hatreds. Like a game of cat's cradle, the discombobulated web was twisted until two sides clearly emerged, and boom, a war to end all wars. (That didn't, in fact, end all wars). And it all started with one man and his wife being assassinated by, perhaps not so coincidentally, a fanatic Muslim.
If you think about it, the middle east is very much like Europe at the turn of last century. The shadowy alliances are still sometimes hard to see, much as the secret European treaties were. Let's think...
Starting with the nuclear power Pakistan, where the trouble is right now, we have numerous factions vying for control of a nation in which extremism is prevalent. Osama is probably somewhere in the country, in the mountains and caves. Oh, Pakistan is a nuclear power- did I mention that? Musharraf, the best friend we have in the place, is trying to hold on to power. Bhutto, a rival of his, is dead. People blame him, though any way a person looks at it (using reason, not Islamic hatred), Musharraf gains nothing from her death but a heap of problems. We have other people wishing to take the reigns, and we have the idiotic, IDIOTIC Bush regime calling for free elections in a country that might vote Bin Laden for president if given the chance. Also, remember that Pakistani intelligence services were, until 9/11, cozy with the Taliban (until the US came in and said make a decision, because we're going after them, and Musharraf took our side), and that Bhutto was also an old Taliban supporter, for no reason other than to control Afghanistan by proxy. Al Qaeda is at the top of the list of Bhutto assassin suspects, but who knows. And, one more time for you idiot libs who can't get anything through your thick skulls- PAKISTAN IS NUCLEAR!
Afghanistan, meanwhile, being occupied by the US, is very fragile and the Taliban is making a return there. The moderates in that country are still very afraid of the hell of the extremists, and the US is stretching itself to hold the place because it is also occupying...
Iraq! Yet another country in turmoil, but yes, the troop surge is going well. The country is coming in to control. But there is still work to be done, things are still very fragile, and as we have seen, it takes one bombing of one stupid little shrine to set off an entire nation of Muslim religious stupidity and violence.
Of course, there is the big octopus Iran, spreading its tentacles into Iraq and everywhere else. According to the general in charge of Iraq (and the surge that is working), the Iranians are fighting us by Proxy, supplying weapons and people to the insurgency. Being Shiite, and the majority of Iraq being Shiite, Iraq could potentially become a satellite nation of Iran, remember that. As if that weren't a big problem for the US, they are also pursuing nukes. Don't think for one second that bogus intelligence report that they gave them up four years ago is true, I don't even want to start in on that. All the while, the Iranian regime hates, and i mean HATES Israel, who is a very closely guarded friend of Israel. They are obviously supporting Hezbollah, a terrorist group whose purpose is to annihilate Israel. Hezbollah also is suspected to have sleeper cells in the US, who came across that giant open border down south. Keep in mind, as well, that the Iranians are not Arab. They are Persians. The name Iran comes from the old Shah's father, who was a big fan of Hitler. Iran is the Farsi word for Aryan. He wanted to exemplify the difference between the Persians, who were closer to Aryans, and the Arabs, who were a lower race, in his view. There could be something there still.
Israel, meanwhile, has apparently lost the will to live. There is no party of strength in the country. The Palestinians have elected terrorists as their government, and the Israelis try to talk it out with them. Long story short, Israel is getting softer by the minute.
Moving on to Saudi Arabia, that government is on our side, but would surely not want to fight on our side. They also supply us with most of our oil, a necessity for out nation's economy and military. (Thanks libs, I LOOOVE being dependent on them for that.) Saudi Arabia is the heart of all Wahhabism, and the monarchy holding on to Saudi Arabia deals with them by giving them lots of money to hold on to their regime. Should it hit the fan, who knows if the monarchy would hold. If the Wahhabists got control of that country, my God, what would happen...
Turkey is on our side, barely. (Thanks for condemning them now of all times, you Democrat traitors!!!) They, however, have issues with the Kurds in Iraq we are trying to protect. They also recently thought of entering the European Union, though people living in reality know that such a move is unlikely if not impossible. They, also, are not Arabs, but Turks- a completely different race. (While I'm at it- Pakistanis are Indian, not Arabic or anything else.)
Moving out of the Middle East for a bit, Russia's "president" (the ex-KGB head) Putin, who has assassinated (shut up, libs, we all know he did it), at least two dissenters in the past few years, has declared that an attack on Iran is practically an attack on Russia itself. Putin wants Russia's old super power greatness back. He sells weapons to Iran. He hasn't sold them nukes, yet.
While I'm back on Iran, remember that they are cozying up to not only Kim Jong Il of North Korea, a minor nuclear power, but also Hugo Chavez, of Venezuela, another large oil provider to the US.
Anyway, Russia and China are also getting closer by the day, and if you know me, you know that I see China as the real threat looming in the future. China does act annoyed at North Korea for upsetting the balance, but if you ask me, they encourage Kim to act as he does just to get in our way.
Okay, so leaving many, many nations in the Middle East, and elsewhere, alone, there are a LOT of dominoes set up. Mostly against the US. So, okay, pretending WWIII breaks out, who actually comes to our side? The tiny little UK who barely has a military anymore? Australia? They just elected a super-lib president who gave up on Iraq and embraces the global warming hysteria. Anyone else in Europe? I don't think so.
On a quick tangent, don't think that I agree with the notion that the US has so alienated the world that everyone hates us, and that is why we get no help. We get no help because our old allies, like Europe, is weak. WEAK. The West is declining!!! Everyone that used to rule the world through strength, who happen to be our most likely allies, have become little girls! Not women, no, the women of the West are who needs to save us. The Western world is led primarily by prepubescent, pathetic, squeaky voiced acne faced girls!!! More on that some other time...
Okay, who else will fight on our side? Israel? They are just as weak as Europe, and their strength is based almost solely on us anyway. Not to mention they're one of the smallest countries on the planet. The Iraqis? The Afghans? They can't even clean their own houses with our help! Oh wait, I almost forgot, our ace in the hole. We still have Canada, people. Whew. It will all be okay, people. Don't worry. Canada is on our side.
...
I have to tell you, this WWIII (which just might shape up to be a REAL world war, meaning really including all corners of the world), is turning out to be really one-sided. This time around, the dominoes are all falling against America. And this is a nuclear world now. Gee, libs, when you think of all this, and for once put aside your "it's all American Imperialism's fault" nonsense, aren't you glad that we have all the nukes we do in? I know I am.
Anyway, an intelligent leadership would make absolutely sure that nothing like what I imagine could happen, (which I don't actually think will happen, by the way), does happen. So what is the conservative4truth's solution? Well, let me say that I agree with Bolton, the old UN ambassador, when he says that this is actually partially our fault. Oh my gosh! Yep, that's right. Stupid moron Bush should never, NEVER have permitted Bhutto to go back to Pakistan (from exile in Dubai), let alone brokered some kind of power sharing deal with her. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Meanwhile, most of the country probably hasn't even heard this story. Most of the rest have no idea how important this is. Ignoramuses. But if you made me dictator for the next six months (like the Romans did it in times of emergency, I don't want to be Saddam), I'll tell you what I'd do.
Next post, that is. I'm tired of writing.
