I've noted a moderation and more nuanced position lately.
To be perfectly frank, sometimes I wonder if DJT is not the establishment's strawman designed to keep us with the globalist agenda.
The globalists' agenda is directly responsible for the death of millions of Muslims and likely a substantial number of Iraqi and Syrian Christians, with Sam's choice of president being very much in the loop, starting with her husband's policies (that resulted in the official toll of 500,000 dead Iraqi children, which WJC's secratary of state famously considered as "worth it"), to the destruction of Libya and its attendant miseries, and in Syria with millions of dispossed, and yet another nation in ruin.
As a Muslim, let me assure you, if I was the president, I would make sure every single person arriving from these war zones is fully vetted. Given that I am from West Asia (the so-called Middle East) you should note that neither racism nor aversion to Muslims would motivate that approach. It's just common sense.
Further, while I fully agree that since we have instigated this global crisis and thus even beyond the call of human empathy are responsible and must sleep in the bed that we have made, let it be noted that the best way to help Syrians and refugees is to STOP THESE WARS so they can live in peace in their own homeland. Again, this is just common sense.
Clinton and her fellow travellers (and they are quite a few of them!) are ideologues. And ideologues are dangerous, imo, since it is their ideological framework that does the thinking for them. You can practically substitute any other neo-con/liberal for Hillary Clinton and it would not make an iota of difference.
That said, note, I am voting Jill Stein. I agree with the 10 Nuclear officers that in their recent open letter noted that the psychological profile of Donald Trump is that of a man that can easily be provoked (gamed).
- noir_lord 10y agoI'm not disagreeing with you on anything then (except the rigorous checks, they already do that), if I was American I'd be voting third party/spoiling the ballot. In a straight choice I'll take Hillary over Trump because as you mentioned the man is dangerously unstable and incredibly easily provoked (see his reaction to SNL today..).
- rtx 10y agoSince you understand both cultures, why are people in USA not able to see the threat posed by Hillary.
- eternalban 10y agoThe cultures I identify with are American and Iranian. But what does it have to do with culture? > the threat posed by Hillary. The Americans who are clued into the geopolitical equation recognize that either America accepts getting demoted from world hegemon to ex-Anglo-Empire Deux, or, the "world" will need to duke it out "one last time" ... again. I have a feeling The Donald will not react pleasantly when Putin and company (not who you think, imo) tell him "You're fired!"
