Predictions on Iraq: Does Wolf Blitzer = Nostradamus?

Yogi Berra is credited with saying:  "It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future."

If you haven't heard of Nostradamus - you probably haven't been watching enough crap on the History channel.  Well - they have some good stuff once in a while - I guess.  But perhaps you can catch up on your predictions-deficit over at CNN by hearing what Wolf Blitzer has to say about the future of Iraq - going forward now in 2011 pushing 2012:

"What largely held the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia together was the brutal dictatorship of Marshal Josip Broz Tito. Once he died, the country went into a series of deadly and bitter civil wars. Yugoslavia ceased to exist in 2003. It has been replaced by these other countries.

As you also know, Iraq has had bitter ethnic tensions for a long time among Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds. It was held together for a long time by Saddam Hussein’s brutal dictatorship. For the almost nine years since Saddam’s removal, it has been held together by a huge U.S. military presence.

But with U.S. troops now out of the country, I suspect we could be on the verge of seeing Iraq spiral into civil war. We already have seen a series of terrorist attacks in recent days. My fear is that this will only get worse."

I've found that Wolf Blitzer is really good at giving us information that is complete, current, and accurate.  Now that he's given us this great prediction about what will happen to Iraq following the removal of someone holding it together - we can rest assured that tomorrow - he - Wolfstradamus - will give us even more information to keep us abreast of the "news" important to We the People - so we can participate as well-informed citizens - ensuring that our elected officials are doing what is best for America - first - last - and always.

But I keep thinking about Yogi Berra who is also credited with saying:  "It's deja vu all over again."  Maybe you've seen this video before?

H.R. 5741: Congress attempting to legislate slavery in the US

Read entire article HERE.

" To require all persons in the United States between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform national service, either as a member of the uniformed services or in civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, to authorize the induction of persons in the uniformed services during wartime to meet end-strength requirements of the uniformed services, and for other purposes."

Note: Next are armband-wearing kids, marching to songs, first carrying shovels over their shoulders - eventually carrying rifles. I suppose American parents will start to pay attention when more of their kids come home in boxes. In the meantime the wars are an abstraction - a blurb on the news in between hyped-up "terrorist attacks" and "drug busts."

Corporate media in America is public enemy number one - I feel sorry for the Sean Hannity types, the Laura Ingrahams, the Thom Hartmanns, the Neil Boortzs, the Rushbos, the Glenn "shoot him in the head" Becks, the Wolf Blitzers - all of them. Because America will wake up - one way or the other - and if I were any of the above war-mongering con-artists I'd get out of Dodge real quick-like when the SHTF.

The lie cannot last forever. And it will not.

Obama's Timidity and Deaths at Sea

Read entire article here:

" Early on, CNN began repeating the Israeli “explanation” for its attack on the high seas, parroting the Jerusalem Post which reported that “militants were killed” after they set upon Israeli naval commandos who boarded one of the six ships Monday morning at two o’clock.

...
One of the surviving crew of the USS Liberty, decorated Navy veteran Joe Meadors, was with the “Freedom Flotilla” when it was attacked on Sunday night. Meadors is past president of the USS Liberty Veterans Association. The State Department tells us that Joe Meadors survived this latest Israeli attack. At last word, he sits in an Israeli jail."

Note: Not surprising from the station that provides all Wolf (Zionist) Blitzer all the time. Nice that the Israelis can have their way with American citizens while our "commander" in chief does his best - zero.

Are Americans only hearing one side of the story?

UPDATE AUGUST 16, 2009 AUDIO - Boiling Frogs with Sibel Edmonds and Phil Giraldi regarding AIPAC
--------------------------------
There are two sides to every story. Is it possible that Americans are given access to only one side of the story involving struggles in the middle East? I wonder if we knew the whole story our perspective might change to one reflecting more balance? I wonder if it is our business at all - except that it seems wrong to stand by while people slaughter each other when one has the power to stop it. But are we doing that? Can Americans form a reasoned opinion based on the information presented to the American public through normal media outlets? The American federal government ignores President George Washington's warning stated in his 1796 Farewell Address : to stay out of foreign entanglements - Why? Are they wiser than he? Here's a sample:

"Why quit our own to stand upon foreign ground? Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor, or caprice?"

Is it possible that one side of this bloodbath has gotten the upper hand when it comes to influence in American government ? Is it possible that some American "public servants" might have stronger allegiances OUTSIDE the U.S.?

Is it possible that movies and television impress Americans with an unbalanced perspective? Would an unbalanced perspective allow Americans to form opinions that will result in justice for all? Do negative consequences result from ill-informed public decisions?
(Click here) - to see for yourself who is behind the curtain. Is it possible, intentionally or unintentionally that the biases of these people will become manifest in the final product?

Is it possible that the news we watch doesn't give us both sides of the story and could use a little more balance? Is it possible that news anchors and news owners either consciously or unconsciously bias the news we take for granted as the whole truth?



Is it possible that we Americans are only hearing one side of the story?
