I am no Obama supporter but those attacking him need to understand what exactly he said he would do if elected. In fact he stated he would shift the focus of the war effort for Iraq to Afghanistan, that is what he is doing now. If you voted for him and now feel let down look no further than your own failure to research the issues leading up to the election.
None the less this is a great video, your energy is fantastic.
What about it, we did not belong there in the first place, in fact our support of Sadam out of our greater hatred of Iran helped him sustain power for two decades. Now that we have created instability in that country just picking up and leaving is not an option, instead the president will water down our presence there until we eventually pull out. In the meantime he is, as I said previously, following his campaign promise to concentrate greater efforts in Afghanistan.
@beefspareribs well if you can't make a vid yourself I don't even give a care what you say, but cause I do like spareribes(beef) you are ok. Instead of getting all on me talk to you congressmen. I'm going to see mine tom. and cause I have the balls to make vids you can watch, instead of just com.
I did not get all on you bulkfull, you asked me a question and I simply responded. Checked out some of your videos and they are excellent, best regards beefspareribs.
May Allah Curse be on All of these demonic beings who are taking humans on the path of total annihilation..........You will see in 2012 start of WWIII in this region against Iran & Pakistan
There is a silver lining here, some liberals are starting to come out against Obama about the war in Afghanistan.
Rachael Maddow, Barbra Streisand, Michael Moore and now Jon Stewart have come out recently against Obama's war. Lets hope that this is the beginning of a much bigger awakening among democrats.
Your right though, to call yourself anti-war and still support Obama is not credible. We live in a very dishonest society.
There's also too other categories these people fall into. Completely clueless (usually just uninformed) and liars. I suspect a lot of people who work in PC environments ( the media, academia, government ) lie about global warming because it is good for their careers and a lot less hassle.
as mueller said to charlie rose , this marks the attempt to destroy the tribal warlord traditions of the middle east . basically its the destruction of sovereign antiquities from ages long past.
at some point you have to seriously consider revelations , in this case the harlot that has fornicated with all the nations of the eath. A seduction that leads to the dismantling of elements that would willingly offer action along with voice to counter the global megalomaniacs.
when are people going to realize that left, right, DEM, REP, there all run by the same bankster's the same banksters that put HITLER in power. If we don't get ride of money will never get ride of corruption!!!
Great video as usual Ted.. Do you belong to a book club? You read some very interesting excerpts. Moving out here to the farm fields not many book stores... actually none within 90 miles
There's a little lake town in the Adirondacks we visit. The last few times we've been there it's been crawling with war protesters. I'm curious...will they be there next summer?
What was your opinion of president bush when he sent another 20,000 troops to Iraq? Did that make him a "war-monger" as well? It seems like some people are just out for Obama's blood. It is as if Obama can do no right ever. Some seem to use any excuse to attack. It's almost becoming comical. I recently read an article by James David Manning regarding Obama claiming he wasn't really a "black" man. LoL! Can you imagine, if mccain was president, what things would be like today? Better?
Yes he was a warmonger. I was against the war in Iraq under Bush, and the Afghanistan invasion as well. Just as Obama supporters refuse to acknowledge they were lied to and that Obama is a puppet in the hands of Wall Street and the elite. With Bush at least you knew he was a puppet warmonger up front. As for McCain, who knows, "what if's" are worthless. Obama ran on a platform, he promised like they all do and he lied. I will continue to call him on it again and again.
Of course he's a liar. You do realize that he is a politician? That's what they do. Lie lie and lie. They promise everything and deliver nothing. Obama is no different. The faces might change but the game stays the same. It's just peculiar how, with Obama, everyone seems to be drooling for any opportunity to crucify him. At least more so than with most other past presidents. Maybe it's because many are finally becoming aware of the true reality of politics and corruption?
Bush Jr and Clinton both had to deal with that as well so it's not new. But it does seem to be recent so I'll take that as a sign that people are finally understanding what's really going on.
Clinton was terrible, but he was still better than Obama. They are constantly ratcheting up the tyranny.
With Obama it's completely in your face, massive socialist expansion combined with an agressive foreign policy and no difference between him and Bush jr. on civil liberties. People are starting to wake up to the truth about Obama, which is a problem for them because people are starting to see that the media who hypes him all the time must therefore be gatekeepers.
They have put all their eggs in the "democrat" basket and I believe they are a little shell shocked. Whether or not they swallow the "we need more so that we can need less" bullshit line is yet to be seen. A few months should shake it out. The resulting environment will be either a VERY angry movement who have realized the right-left lie...OR.... they will pull the covers up some more and roll over. I tend to think that it may split down the middle.What a fucking mess.p e a c e
lol yeeeeaah good question. Where are the anti war peaceniks?? Is it okay to protest when Bush was in charge but not okay when it's Obama? Maybe they're too busy paying attention to Tiger Woods or ran out of magic markers to make new protest signs.
Well put Ted, I was wondering where these shmucks are. So far I have not heard anything about anti war protest. I would like to caution you though, maybe we are not hearing about them because the MSM is not reporting. If the MSM is not reporting, and there are people out there screaming about broken promises, then it is not really those people's fault if they are not being heard. It's a tough situation either way. Take care. Mike, London, On.
Well taken advice. But I have feelers in a lot of places and it just isn't happening in any organized fashion. I hear Code Pink is starting to get moving now, and Moveon, the lickspittle Obama lovers are calling on Congress to do something about ending Afghanistan LOL. They still refuse to go after the head killer himself.
That there is movement is a good sign, it seems to me that there is still a lag between announcement, and public reaction. This lag will shorten the more people are suffering, also this close to the holidays it is difficult to get people into moving gear, which is why I suspect they are making all sorts of announcements. Expect dramatic moves in the dollar soon, especially with new banking regulations coming in Jan. Mike.
I fear that if democrats and liberals haven't come out against Obamas wars yet they never will, I mean it doesn't get more obvious than this, George Bush had nothing on Barack Obama.
We need to keep on talking to these so called liberals though, if for no other reason that denying obvious truths will do a number on their lying, corrupt minds.
It's fun to piss of assholes just by telling the truth!
@jackson32 The only difference between radical liberals and wacko right wingers is that the radical liberals TALK prettier and tend to elect "politically correct" candidates; they are still part of the same rotten, corrupt, lying, thieving, murdering bunch of criminals. Thomas Jefferson would call for a revolution if he could see what has happened to our once great nation; the dulled, apathetic, stupid American people better wake up.
"The only difference between radical liberals and wacko right wingers is that the radical liberals TALK prettier and tend to elect "politically correct" candidates"
The 'political class' liberals and democrats are indeed complete hypocrites and are probably even worse than the repubs because they can get away with more because they supposedly are more progressive and nice
Most liberals do have good intention though, so we need to keep planting seeds and educating them what is really going on.
ok...again: I'm totally against this war-wongering crap, was against in when Bush did it and now Obama. This administration has already gotten an earful from me. US foreign policy hasn't changed one god-damn bit. And it's not just the war. There are many other issues. I consider myself on the left of the political spectrum and totally disagree with most of Obama's policies. Yes, many people were deceived. Reminds me of the LBJ days >>>
>>>reminds of the LBJ days, when some of us vehemently supported civil rights + other domestic programs, while being vehemently opposed against the escalation in Vietnam at the same time. But this is far worse, because not even on the domestic front everything is going to hell. For all intents + purposes, we live in a ONE PARTY State, composed of two factions. It's far worse than people can possibly imagine.
That is your own interpretation. Never come to your mind that it is possible that US citizens know that the US has put themselves on a track they cant change save through self damaging efforts and US citizens are very satisfied to know that no matter the government, the same policy, root of their welfare, will be kept on?
Myself, I lean to think that people who think that others are drones because those others supposedly dont see what it is open to all to see are the drones.
I recommend that everyone watching this video call one of the four Code Pink offices and express your displeasure at our new "Leader". The phone numbers can be found on their website.
I don't blame you....... I wish for every soldier in the mid-east to resign from the evil tyrany in genocide. They would be regarded as even braver for the standing up to the chaos.
30,000 to Afghanistan, I don't think that is enough. The Soviets couldn't do it with 10 times that number. The Soviets failed, right? The British sent soldiers into Afghanistan in the 19th century, and they couldn't conquer it. Before that, the Mongols invaded Afghanistan, and they couldn't hold it. No one can conquer that country even with advanced weaponry. All I can say is this, a lot of American boys will be coming back in body bags.
A free country doesn't need a standing army. An armed citizenry operating entirely by itself, for itself, and without any chain of command, is any armies worse nightmare.
I almost have empathy for those who went to the ballet box with "hope and change" ringing in their ears. I believe most of them earnestly desired all that had been promised to them and to everyone. The truth is squarely at their feet now, but I'm willing to wager a paycheck that most will be too filled with pride and self-righteous ego to admit they'd been duped. This game being played out against us is about "divide and conquer". Separate racially, politically, religiously, etc. No unity.
yes that is true....an "establishment" is like a ponzi scheme: so long as there is confidence it will continue to attract investors. WAR is our name...and we WILL continue to attract investors. Tell that to your children.
why does everyone always ask..."what does the USA make anymore?" and then follows....."its all been outsourced!" ..but to me it is so obvious....the USA makes ........WAR
The establishments greatest fear is a Peace movement.
Personally I don't think the 30K troops were needed there as much as not wanted here...when the shite hits the fan at home that's 30K potential "oathkeepers" to not turn their crosshairs on blue Nato berets.
I reckin we aught to be making 30,000 red targets to put on our American soilders uniforms cause that's what they will be Targets for Affy shooting practice. Send a million or send none.
...I have 3 young men that I quasi-adopted that serve in the military,,, One was just home 2 weeks for thanksgiving,,, He just went back to Afganistan... anyway the thing is not one of them have ANY RESPECT for their so called Commander in Cheif... BTW he said he felt like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz when he eased through those poppy fields... Odd looking fuckin plants he said, Ha Ha :)
Awesome video, it's funny that on yahoo news they started the post by saying obama will end this war in 18 months blah blah blah ... so that's why he's sending 30,000 more troops so they finish this war fast. Now lets count the morons that will believe that.
I agree Tenebroust! Warmonger indeed I am sickened by how we have had nothing but war and more war He has earned his new Name and is a traitor and a spineless puppet as well!
I voted for Obama because I wanted a major change in direction on several different political fronts, but you're right about Obama. Tonight Obama sounded just like George W. Bush when Bush was trying to sell us on the need for a war in Iraq. Same bullshit just a different asshole selling it. What the hell can we do now that our government has been taken over by organized criminals (Republicans & Democrats)?
30k troops that won't be rounding up the banksters or protecting our southern border from the violence spilling over from Mexico...or spending Christmas with their families. Instead, off they go to the graveyard of empires to kill people who couldn't get a plane or boat ticket here to harm us if they tried. Astounding. George W Bush II has spoken.
First Doc's new video doesn't appear in my subscriptions list, and now this one. Also today, comments I left on two different videos disappeared. Weird, and annoying.
Canada currently has 2,800 troops in Afghanistan. Obama has not yet asked Harper to send more. Harper was asked recently by Biden, but is waiting to hear from Obama apparently. If asked, he will most certainly send more troops. All I can do from where I am is write a letter to the prime ministers office. Miss the kiss-offs lol.
I have a son who wants to go in the Marines and will hear NOTHING from me about it - the recruiter (who told me he isn't a recruiter, he's just a Marine on 'recruit rotation') is pushing and pushing. My son is only 17!!! They are both trying to tell me that he won't go to Afghanistan - bullshit!!!! I am so frustrated right now.....and I never thought of video games as evil until now...but I wish I could get my hands on the guy who created 'Call of Duty' right about now...
Can you ask him to talk to marines who have been in the kill zones, (disgusting) , marines who got out and have battle trauma,,, how about taking him to a VA hospital where Soldiers are recovering from battle. if nothing else, could you watch "Iraq, the ground truth" and "Loose Change" with him.?
I feel for you. My son is a totally lazy 17 year old who is hanging onto his youth as long as possible, and I have never been so happy to see a manchild.
@anastasia81472 - Well, ,before this Marine kick he just got on, my son was exactly the same!!!! This recruiter guy got in his head...and the rest is history. All I can do is delay things....and hope some other shiny thing catches his attention before he's old enough to enlist on his own...
I'm really sorry to hear that. My Devon is totally anti-military so far. I pray we keep it that way. I'd rather he be out of a job at home than making money as a killing machine for the powers that be. Ultimately, we can't make their decisions for them. In the world created, the best a parent can hope for is that their child doesn't become a monster.
Yes. Well...the weird part is that I have never been pro-military. And Dylan knows the score - but he has now decided that the reason I don't know what is "REALLY" going on is because 'they would never tell us'. So there you go. Sort of....Conspiracy Theory in reverse.
But you're right - at the end of the day it's his life and his choice. And even if I don't agree, he's my son and I have to support that. But I will NOT say ' OOOO RAH'.
I don't like my husband playing those war games. Roleplaying Dungeon and Dragons style video games are ok, but I HATE games like Call of Duty and all that MACHO BULLSH*T that parades nothing but testosterone-laced nutso aggression. I told my husband he is NOT allowed to buy any more of these f*cking games.
If your son is 17 and still living under your roof you have the right to make your rules. I really hope your son sees the light and doesn't take part in this. Maybe you should direct him to a site where they post gruesome pics of what happens in the war. I don't think your son is old enough to know what effects seeing that sh*t in real life can do to someone. Good luck.
Well, I don't have to sign for him to enlist early - and I won't. But 18 will be here soon enough - July. A good friend recommended that I take him to a Veterans' home. I think that might be a good idea. I am going to see if I can find one around here - then we'll go on a little 'field trip'. And thanks - it is very frustrating. He's grown up with me - I thought that he knew the 'real deal' and would never want to join the military.
Input here. This might not work and even probably have a reverse effect.
"War is hell" is a trick used by the military to spirit up their soldiers.
Going through the horrors of the war gives a feeling of being a survivor and later on being something special, a chosen one.
Most people at a certain age in their life think they are special, have a great destiny before them. Seeing disabled by wars and the thought of the possibility of getting through this same but in one piece seduces many minds
Better to be aware of the very fact that the approach "war is hell" does not bring disgut but instead fascination and a desire of surviving all these horrors.
There is nothing wrong with going in the military. I did my time, and in about 3yrs I hope that my son joins. It does suck that we are at war right now. I was in the 1st gulf. There is a lot that a young man gets out of it, that he can't as a civil.
once again the Israel lobby gets what they want from a subservient US government
and the willfully ignorant among us remain distracted by shiny things
shown by the spending on useless Chinese crap this weekend. We will not be concerned as long as there are toys to fill shopping carts with. Our GMO fed children close in tow, covering the wal-mart linoleum with their drool, after a round of vaccines induces a partial lobotomy
good to see someone else on my subscriptions list making an angry video regarding the troop escalation. these fucking so called "patriots' on youtube seem disproportionately concerned with non issues and dont seem to care much about the prospect of more afghani kids dying... of course I am generalizing, IM sure some of the self-identified patriots care deeply about this issue and havent made a video yet, but im not seeing much at this point, its frustrating. fuck obama
Sounded like his speech writer was G.W. Bush. Its stunning to listen to these people tell us we need to turn back the heat, use less fuel etc as 10 of them step off a jet designed for 500. The hypocrisy and elitism is STUNNING.
Every time I disparage Barack Obama, on the very basis of his warmongering and the fact that he's essentially a third term of Bush, I get called, of all things, a "neocon" when I spent eight years with these guys protesting the Iraq War. The cognitive dissonance among some of these Obama supporters seems to run very deep. I can't thing of a single time in my life I've felt so alone, at least politically. Is peace such a crazy idea?
Great video, as always!!! 5-starred and favorited!
While many of the war protest groups have been mesmerized since Obama took office they are starting to realize that things aren't changing. I did see a video earlier about Code Pink on Fox, you can search for "Change They Don't Believe In?" you should be able to find it. Cindy Sheehan was out protesting months ago but I haven't seen much in the mainstream media about it. Hopefully Obama's speech will get some anti-war groups going again since its clear the wars aren't ending anytime soon.
I agree wholeheartedly Ted.. I like the way you shine the light on things that are out of view of so many.. Our military was NOT assembled to guard pipelines and poppy crops.. the military is the Peoples defense against invasion from another country.. the powers that be have forgotten that.. the Greatest Patriots our country has today are the Generals that control the BIG arsenal.. I hope the Generals, true believers in the Constitution, will step forward soon and stop the DC Criminals..
This is my favourite video of yours and I have been watching you for a while now. You said what needed to be said Ted. I am proud of you! Let me add, if I may, that the Nobel Prize is a fucking joke. That just PROVED that Obama is part of a Globalist agenda. Second, "Any idea how many Mercenaries are going?" I heard an equal number are going.(Just want people to think about this as well.) I heard there is going to be an Income Tax increase to pay for this.Those earning $100k or less.
Amen! Let the real peace movement no stand up and speak or forever hold its tongue. Every word Obama spoke could just as well have been spoken by Bush. Same policy, same men behind the curtains, just a different face slapped onto it. Real change or none at all!
Obama is an actor...He never had any intention of change...He said whatever it took to get elected...Change will happen, I"m just not sure when...Don't lose hope yet, you never know what tomorrow brings and it will happen when least expected...Keep the videos coming...I got your back!
It is a disgraceful example to children who want to grow up to be President. Obama should not be Murderer in Chief.

The USA is involved in three wars because they cant do otherwise.
It is either war or facing deep and worsening domestic issues at home.
Politicians have now adopted the habit of dropping the problem they cant solve at home on exterior to their nation people.
If the US dont go at war, the USD plummets, the domestic economy stalls, the supply in natural resources is severed.
No US politicians want to cope with such a situation. Hence war.

I consider myself on the left of the political spectrum and totally disagree with most of Obama's policies. Yes, many people were deceived. Reminds me of the LBJ days >>>

>>>reminds of the LBJ days, when some of us vehemently supported civil rights + other domestic programs, while being vehemently opposed against the escalation in Vietnam at the same time. But this is far worse, because not even on the domestic front everything is going to hell. For all intents + purposes, we live in a ONE PARTY State, composed of two factions. It's far worse than people can possibly imagine.

fatpius 2 years ago
That is your own interpretation. Never come to your mind that it is possible that US citizens know that the US has put themselves on a track they cant change save through self damaging efforts and US citizens are very satisfied to know that no matter the government, the same policy, root of their welfare, will be kept on?
Myself, I lean to think that people who think that others are drones because those others supposedly dont see what it is open to all to see are the drones.

Lets face it: the US is doing what it does because it can afford to do so.
The lesson of the last sixty years is that the US is doing what it does because it cant afford not to do so.
The common US citizen is perfectly aware of this and is happy with it.
They also take the most convenient stance in this situation: denial.
For the same causes as their nation.
Because they can afford to deny and cannot afford not to deny.

30,000 to Afghanistan, I don't think that is enough. The Soviets couldn't do it with 10 times that number. The Soviets failed, right? The British sent soldiers into Afghanistan in the 19th century, and they couldn't conquer it. Before that, the Mongols invaded Afghanistan, and they couldn't hold it. No one can conquer that country even with advanced weaponry. All I can say is this, a lot of American boys will be coming back in body bags.

I almost have empathy for those who went to the ballet box with "hope and change" ringing in their ears. I believe most of them earnestly desired all that had been promised to them and to everyone. The truth is squarely at their feet now, but I'm willing to wager a paycheck that most will be too filled with pride and self-righteous ego to admit they'd been duped. This game being played out against us is about "divide and conquer". Separate racially, politically, religiously, etc. No unity.

If asked, he will most certainly send more troops. All I can do from where I am is write a letter to the prime ministers office. Miss the kiss-offs lol.

I'm really sorry to hear that. My Devon is totally anti-military so far. I pray we keep it that way. I'd rather he be out of a job at home than making money as a killing machine for the powers that be. Ultimately, we can't make their decisions for them. In the world created, the best a parent can hope for is that their child doesn't become a monster.

Yes. Well...the weird part is that I have never been pro-military. And Dylan knows the score - but he has now decided that the reason I don't know what is "REALLY" going on is because 'they would never tell us'. So there you go. Sort of....Conspiracy Theory in reverse.
But you're right - at the end of the day it's his life and his choice. And even if I don't agree, he's my son and I have to support that. But I will NOT say ' OOOO RAH'.

If your son is 17 and still living under your roof you have the right to make your rules. I really hope your son sees the light and doesn't take part in this. Maybe you should direct him to a site where they post gruesome pics of what happens in the war. I don't think your son is old enough to know what effects seeing that sh*t in real life can do to someone. Good luck.

Well, I don't have to sign for him to enlist early - and I won't. But 18 will be here soon enough - July. A good friend recommended that I take him to a Veterans' home. I think that might be a good idea. I am going to see if I can find one around here - then we'll go on a little 'field trip'. And thanks - it is very frustrating. He's grown up with me - I thought that he knew the 'real deal' and would never want to join the military.

kevin7lee 2 years ago
Input here. This might not work and even probably have a reverse effect.
"War is hell" is a trick used by the military to spirit up their soldiers.
Going through the horrors of the war gives a feeling of being a survivor and later on being something special, a chosen one.
Most people at a certain age in their life think they are special, have a great destiny before them. Seeing disabled by wars and the thought of the possibility of getting through this same but in one piece seduces many minds
TheCZMan 2 years ago
Better to be aware of the very fact that the approach "war is hell" does not bring disgut but instead fascination and a desire of surviving all these horrors.

There is nothing wrong with going in the military. I did my time, and in about 3yrs I hope that my son joins. It does suck that we are at war right now. I was in the 1st gulf. There is a lot that a young man gets out of it, that he can't as a civil.

While many of the war protest groups have been mesmerized since Obama took office they are starting to realize that things aren't changing. I did see a video earlier about Code Pink on Fox, you can search for "Change They Don't Believe In?" you should be able to find it. Cindy Sheehan was out protesting months ago but I haven't seen much in the mainstream media about it. Hopefully Obama's speech will get some anti-war groups going again since its clear the wars aren't ending anytime soon.
