As President Obama announces the escalation of 30,000 more troops in Afghanistan, we protest the decision in Colorado Springs at Acacia Park.
This escalation is a mistake.
Probably the biggest mistake of his presidency.
I understand the situation in the region is incredibly dangerous, that the relationship with the nuclear powers, India and Pakistan is incredibly tense, that it is ALL an inherited situation and that the Pentagram military solution is ONLY and always superior force.
I also understand the complete neocon infiltration of the pentagon from gates on down, and their complete inability to do anything with a hole other than keep digging.
I also understand the president is not only stuck to this tar baby, but trapped by a chosen chronology of priorities, with the economy being the biggest threat to re-election.
I also understand the neocon fascists are controlling the president's information, intel and his subsequent options and have convinced him that a surge in troop level will do something functional in terms of pacifying Afghanistan and his enemies in the congress and nation.
It won't.
Another of the president's inherited traps is that his situation is similar to Pakistan's Zardari's in that he is saddled with an autonomous army operating as a fourth pillar of government, along with the CIA as the another policy making pillar and blackwater as a mercenary militia under no control at all except the STATED "holy war" against Islam, that their founder, and son of FUCUS board member, Elsa Prince Broekhuisen has made policy. Between their control of FUCUS, Family Research Council, Media Research Center, Council for National Policy, Amway, and their own mercenary army, this family is the center of the "christian" taliban "holy war" on Islam, is driving domestic policy as well, and under no control whatsoever, by anyone, least of all President Obama.

It has become impossible for any news outlet to know and report who set off any bomb, fired any shot, who funded them, and why, BUT it's always hypnotically reported by the corrupt media as the neocon-trained "fact" of "insurgents", "taliban", "al-qaeda", etc., when the ISI, mossad, CIA, and blackwater are orchestrating black-bag, covert, false-flag ops daily in all 3 countries.
The problem in Afghanistan is political, needs political solutions and can NOT involve the neocon's Big Oil corrupt puppet, former Unocal exec, Hamid Karzai and the federalization of power. Obama has inherited a mess in every way, but has made it his own with escalation. His solution should involve wrapping the pentagon, regulatory agencies, and NGOs with a plastic sheet and setting off several thousand insecticide bug bombs to rid himself of the neocon infestation.
The problem is they still infest Congress, who controls and obstructs his ability to do just that. In a year, he has only been able to change out a tiny percentage of the last administration, and just like the GDop that held onto the Minnesota Senate seat for almost a year after the election, they have saddled him with basically the same administration, installed by "W", and having no respect for majority rule, they will not let go. This happens with every administration change, but has become the fascist neocon's hallmark.
All of this history is in no way an excuse for Obama on Afghan policy because the buck stops with him no matter where and when it started.
BUT, added to the complexity of NOT having his own administration to any functional degree, along with inheriting an economic disaster, foreign policy tar baby, obstructionist minority-ruled congress, destroyed negotiating position, secret, private mercenary armies, teabagger militias opening inciting assassination, vacant regulatory agencies and the rest, he has still done far, FAR better than the alternative.
Obama did not create this army, mercenary militias or situation and is very limited in what he can do about it, while they operate as a 4th arm of government to create policy disasters anywhere they want. They smell blood and money in Afghanistan and the inextricably related Pakistan and India. They are under no executive control, with a budget hidden deep in Pentagram funding, under no local control, under no laws of any state, fighting for no flag, and see their very survival as dependent on endless war in the region.
It's NOT Obama's war, but this 30% escalation IS.
The election was over last November.
The administration change has hardly started this November.
Obama needs more boots on the ground, but NOT in Afghanistan.
In Washington DC.
