War Is Not The Answer

Of all the infantile slogans floating around the left-wing of what passes for American political discourse, "War is not the answer!" must take the first prize of boobery and historical illiteracy. Since the beginning of man's relationship to man, war has been an answer to many questions, such as ones regarding leadership, land, economics, politics, innovation in technology, etc. To be sure, it is not always the right answer, but oftentimes it is the only answer.

This childish worldview is rooted in the perpetual youth of the Left, who despite thousands of years of evidence and fact cannot reconcile reality with what they wish to be reality. And herein lies the danger facing the world today. While the Left remains trapped on the lawns of Woodstock, singing songs, doing drugs and passing STD's around like Tic Tac's, reality intervenes as it inevitably does.

Iran is on the cusp of acquiring nuclear weapons. A rogue, tyrannical, suicidal regime is on the cusp of acquiring the worst thing ever created by human hands, a weapon capable of incinerating a million people in the time it takes to snap ones finger. The men who lead this terrorist state have articulated ad nauseum that they wish to eliminate the Great Satan and the Little Satan from the face of the earth. And as the clock ticks they get ever closer to the acquisition of an item that will ensure their ability to do so. A second and worse Holocaust against the Jewish people is becoming more likely by the day. But, war is not the answer!

Russia has been posturing since the middle of the Bush Administration to reclaim what they perceive as their rightful place as a balancing world super power, a polar opposite of the United States. They declared war on Georgia; they have been helping the Iranian nuclear program with manpower, science and raw materials; they bullied our weak president into capitulating on the missile defense shield secured by the Bush Administration. They are aiding and abetting the onset of a new global conflagration. But, war is not the answer!

China is amassing a billion man army. They are ratcheting up their weapons systems and their own tactical support of the Iranian nuclear program. They are buying America and manipulating our currency in order to destroy American supremacy. They are preparing for an aggressive game of checkers while we sit at the table hoping they'll play a sophisticated game of chess with our Euro-lite "leaders" like John Kerry. Don't worry though. War is not the answer!

Afghanistan and Pakistan are deteriorating by the minute. Al Qaeda and the Taliban are reasserting their hold over both countries. They are licking their chops at the thought of the Iranian acquisition of nuclear weapons, so they can be a proxy to a world-wide terror campaign that has the unthinkable potential to destroy Western civilization and return humanity to the barbarism of, as Binyamin Netanyahu says, the Ninth century. The finest American generals have requested 40,000 additional troops in order to wage a counterinsurgency that may or may not be successful. All the while, our president fiddles while Rome is burning. He finds time to push for the government takeover of the American health care industry; he finds time to push for a massive energy tax known as "Cap and Trade"; he finds time to sign 1,000 page legislation that no one has read; he has time to appoint the most radical shadow government ever assembled, with no Congressional oversight; he jets off to Copenhagen to pimp himself and his wife in order to try to secure the economic kickback that would arise from the Olympic games being held in Chicago in 2016. Yes, 2016! A global crisis that requires immediate action is staring the civilized world in the face, and this hack of a president is worried about the Olympic games of 2016??????? Will America even exist in 2016 if our king of narcissism and pomposity doesn't get off his ass and do something????

The world is on the cusp of unspeakable chaos. Our president either doesn't notice or doesn't care. He has better things to do. While he's talking beach volleyball and gets busy appointing communists like Van Jones and pedophiles like Kevin Jennings, the world inches closer to war. To the infantile left, it is never the answer no matter the situation and no matter the righteousness of cause. Realists know that it isn't always the answer, until it is.
