Majority of Americans Want U.S. Ground Troops to Fight ISIS: Poll
By Gary Donovan Snay

My comment:
This poll demonstrates an America scared of its own shadow. Again, fear
is driving American foreign policy. Fear is motivating the American people to
call for yet another war. Fear has overcome common sense and has also prevented
any lessons learned from the past. With America spending more on defense than
the next twelve countries combined, the world has much to fear.
Foreign governments, looking at America, see just one man, preventing a
nation already guilty of mass murder, from perpetrating the same mistake again.
Large segments of the American public, having lost nothing in the last war of
choice, requests more war.
Making heroes of people who murdered a few hundred thousand innocent
people prevents any thoughtfulness in the future. Not prosecuting the last
administration and its military personnel for war crimes, guarantees matching
behavior from the people who committed those crimes in the past. Yes, America
is a war crimes nation and the world has not forgotten.
The United States killed the families of ISIS for false reason and now
they are furious with us. Surprised? Remember? Sunni’s ruled Iraq and it was
the Sunni we directed our wrath towards. We killed more innocent Sunni men,
women and children than any other group in Iraq.
Then, Christian America bragged and boasted of their deeds. ISIS is the
result. Yea, ISIS hates us! They have good reason to hate us. All they have to
do is visit the graves of their children killed by America to remind them of why
they hate us.
The American public chastises the only man demonstrating a course of
action which will cost fewer American lives and fewer innocent lives over there. Obama has learned the lesson from
Iraq. He knows that more war now, will eventually kill Americans not yet born. He
knows he was handed this situation from his predecessor. He has shown a desire
to not hand off an impossible situation to his successor. Americans totally
misunderstand his philosophy.
The same people who brought the current situation upon the world, want
to give additional reasons for continued conflict in the future. Fear prevents
learning anything from the past. The American people have become “Chicken
Little” and combined with a militaristic attitude, America is the world’s
greatest threat.
The reason for war in Iraq was the careful cultivation of American fear.
Bush and company scared America by telling lies and whipping up fear of a
non-existent threat from Iraq. It worked! The same fear mongering is being used
today by the same people who used that tactic in the past.
Major candidates for POTUS are exploiting American fear for political
gain and if they follow through with their exaggerations, thousands of people
will die and they will brag about it. Fortunately, during the cold war, America
was not afraid of their shadow.
Wise leaders, on all sides, prevented the destruction of mankind in the
past. We are alive today because better men during the Cold War, better men
than what is present today, kept all of us alive. They were peace makers and
didn’t succumb to fear. Better, braver men lived in those days.
If today’s America existed during the cold war, we would not be alive
today. Can anyone imagine Donald Trump during the Cuban Missile Crises? How
about Ben Carson? Put present day American “Chicken Littles” into the era of
the Cold War. Would anyone be here today? Is Obama a throwback to the days when
men were brave and wise?
Fear, combined with religious superiority, a powerful military and no
guilt for mass murder in our past is driving a very dangerous America to yet
another war, ensuring more dead Americans not yet born. In Christian religion
there is an example of people killing a man of peace. The same people who
killed that man of peace out of their fear are now trying to kill the peace
makers in modern times. Metaphorically speaking of course. Blessed are the
peace keepers. A pox on the rest of you.
