Obama’s Korean Peninsula ‘Game’ Strategy
“This game is important to the broad foreign policy objectives of the administration, particularly when the President failed to secure any greater US presence within the ASEAN region during his visit to the region last November.”
“
If one can see what the administration has to gain through this escalation, it is difficult to find reason for any back-down. This game is important to the broad foreign policy objectives of the administration, particularly when the President failed to secure any greater US presence within the ASEAN region during his visit to the region last November.
President Obama would certainly have many supporters today in the US military-industrial complex. One of United States greatest war generals and Presidents, Dwight D. Eisenhower warned the American people about the dangerous influence of this group in his farewell address.”

OBAMA SPENDS 4 MINUTES EXCUSING MIDDLE EAST FAILURES ‘IT’S REALLY HARD’
I’M SURPRISED HE DIDN’T BLAME HIS ENTIRE FAILED MIDDLE EAST POLICY ON MARY JANE ROTTENCROTCH…
President Obama was challenged by NBC’s Chuck Todd on his failed campaign promises to have better relations in the Middle East by the end of his first term. Todd asked the President what he believed “went wrong” and how he plans to go forward. The President dismissed the “premise” of Todd’s question and then rambled for the next four minutes saying that the bottom line is that just like in the United States and working with Congress, Middle East negotiations are “really hard.”

Obama got the grant, state wants their money back…!
State trying to recover $100,000 grant for failed Englewood garden
But by the time Obama first ran for president in 2008, the site had become overrun with weeds and garbage, the Chicago Sun-Times reported then.
In addition, the newspaper examined state records and found:
◆ The housing association’s board had hired K.D. Contractors — owned by Smith’s wife, Karen D. Smith — as its subcontractor for the garden. The company, which the association claimed was the low bidder on the project, was to oversee construction including a $20,000 catch basin, $20,000 of drain tile and $18,600 of sewer pipe. But the only improvements on the garden site as of 2008 appeared to be that some trees had been cut down and a gazebo — which wasn’t part of the original grant agreement — had been built.
◆ Smith wrote $65,000 in checks from the grant proceeds directly to his wife, whom he later said hired another subcontractor to do the bulk of the work. He wrote another $20,000 in grant-related checks to his wife’s company, which has since gone out of business.
◆ The subcontractor identified by Smith, a man named Rodolfo Marin, told the Sun-Times in 2008 that his company, Marin Construction, did only about $3,000 of work at the site, leveling it with a Bobcat earthmover and cutting down trees.
The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, which oversaw the garden grant and hundreds of others like it, questioned the hiring of Smith’s wife’s company in late 2003 but months later signed off on the way the grant money was spent, records show. The state agency retained the right, though, to recoup the grant funds if it found future evidence of “ineligible expenditures” or “fraudulent or false” information.

Show us the ambassador’s cables…!
Two top senators on the Foreign Relations Committee don’t want to wait for the State Department to do its own investigation into the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi that killed four Americans including Ambassador Chris Stevens; they want Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to show them Stevens’s diplomatic cables and other correspondence now.

U.S. Arms in Persian Gulf: A Profitable Provocation
The United States continues to arm its Persian Gulf allies. About 4,900 high-precision aviation bombs and other shells will be supplied to Saudi Arabia in the near future. The official pretext is the need to bolster a coalition to counter the spread of Iranian influence in the region.
The upcoming arms deal is yet another attempt by the Barack Obama Administration to prevent Iran from becoming the regional center of gravity. Aware that the U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq by the end of the year may considerably strengthen Tehran’s positions, Washington is seeking to curb Iranian influence in the Gulf. Boris Dolgov, an expert at the Institute of Oriental Studies, comments on the issue.
“Persian Gulf nations, especially member states of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, are sailing in the U.S. policy waterway. Their aims with respect to Iran are very similar to those of the United States. Washington sees Iran as one of the key elements of the “axis of evil”, a concept that was formulated under President Bush. The Gulf nations have stood in opposition to Iran ever since the Islamic Iranian Revolution Tehran planned to export to those nations.”
Life has shown, however, that U.S. efforts to equip Gulf armies with modern weapons has failed to make Tehran bite its tongue or scale down its ambitions. Even the U.S. regional missile defense system, which is currently being deployed to shield U.S. allies from Iranian ballistic missiles, seems to have had little effect on Iran.
After the International Atomic Energy Agency published its latest report on the Iranian nuclear program, claiming that Iran could be designing a nuclear bomb, Israel and the West have pushed for a tougher stance toward the Islamic Republic. But Russia and China supported by other countries think that additional sanctions, let alone military strikes, would be unacceptable. Given the above circumstances, U.S. arms supplies to the Gulf look like a provocation, to say the least, Sergei Druzhilovsky, a professor of the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, told the Voice of Russia.
“Clearly, the aim is to provoke Iran to respond by some irrational moves, which would enable the Americans to justify the subsequent violence and the use of military force. Because no further arming of the U.S. allies in the Arab Middle East would make them any stronger. It’s not the strength of its allies, which simply doesn’t exist, but its own military bases in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain and its own fleet in the Persian Gulf that Washington relies upon. So, this is a pure provocation.”
For the United States this is also a nice way of battling the economic recession. The Pentagon has supplied $60 billion worth of weapons and hardware, including F-15 fighter jets, to Saudi Arabia in recent months and is planning to sell $1.25 billion worth of anti-aircraft missiles to Oman. To sum up, the alleged Iranian threat is doing the U.S. economy a good favor.
