refugee

I got home from zumba and walked through the cold into a warm house. Imagine having a nice place for twenty years and suddenly you are a refugee. You got nothin and no place to go.

And all these refugees are the creation of the US. We've been destroying and destabilizing the Middle East for decades, in hopes of getting control of all the oil.

Obama has done no better, wrecking Libya and Syria. We destroyed civilized Libya, then supported terrorists in Syria in hopes of unseating Assad, and now that the terrorists are on the run, the State Dept is whining and crying. Oddly, Assad was once the "progressive" darling of the Western press (most people forget that if they ever knew it). He became the devil when he nixed a natural gas pipeline that Saudis, Quataris, and the US wanted to go through Syria. The geopolitical aim was to cut down on Russian gas to Europe. Russia is our enemy because, uh, because - well, no one knows. They haven't threatened us. They don't harm us. But the Empire cannot have a rival. It must be destroyed. It's supposed to be a goddam American world by now!

All the killing and misery is about oil or gas, as usual. Other explanations like "democracy" and "human rights" are total bullshit.

Now Assad is no saint but if he's as totally evil as our govt. claims, how did he get 80% of the vote in an election that was judged fair. That's better than most US Presidents.
