Who is watching out for America?

I was thinking last night about what the hell is going wrong with our government and the world. Exactly what circumstances might give rise to the current level of corruption, chaos, confusion, and lack of competence we are seeing in the mainstream media? Could it be the ineptness of the puppet-master, Valerie Jarrett, Obama’s Rasputin, and hi inner circle?  Can it be a runaway federal government operating on autopilot under a detached President who outsources both authority and responsibility for governance? Or, alternatively, can it be something much more sinister.

Look at what we are seeing …

We appear to be creating bad actors that want to kill Americans out of less than thin area, in reality the power vacuum that we create when our troops withdraw from a region. To combat the bad actors without putting boots on the ground and creating a domestic kerfuffle with the progressive socialist democrat peaceniks, we channel money and arms to the enemies of the bad actors; but not before we give them a catchy label like “freedom fighter,” or rebels. When in truth, they are exactly the same sort of bad actors they are fighting. In essence we are facilitating and arming Islamic terrorists to fight Islamic terrorists, but we are not supposed to use the words Islamic terrorists.

But how sincere can this battle be if we spending millions in ordnance and risk $40-million aircraft to symbolically bomb a relatively few terrorists? In essence prosecuting a war as if it were street crime and law enforcement’s bullets must not strike anything but an individual criminal. Operating with rules of engagement that will prolong the conflict and put our nation’s troops at higher risk for death or injury. How can you explain why we didn’t spin-up the B-52’s and carpet bomb ISIS when they were massed in relatively few groups.

I am still not sure what make Assad the bad guy. Here is a dictator who is an Islamic minority (Alawite) and who protected minorities in his country. A country that appears to have been attacked by really bad actors bent on overthrowing his regime and putting a strict Sunni-Islamist theocracy in place that would result in the ethnic cleansing of all non-Sunni Muslims. The knock on Assad is that he used chemical weapons on his own people, yet a so-called investigation was about as reliable as the FBI investigation of Benghazi. The one where the alleged bad guy was giving interviews to the media at a café, but couldn’t be interviewed by the FBI. Where sensitive papers were found by journalists – including diary pages from Ambassador Stevens – after the FBI has departed. And, where the investigation is perpetually ongoing to stonewall Congress and the American people. Anyway, the gas could have been a false flag operation by the rebels seeking to pin the tail on Assad much in the same manner weapons of mass destruction were said to be in Iraq to eliminate Saddam Hussein. 

Where are America’s patriots?

It appears that some of our most potent and effective military commanders have been forced out of the service on petty morals-related charges that would be overlooked in an earlier day. We still do not know why a general and an admiral associated with forces near Benghazi were summarily removed from their positions? We still do not know why the President of the United States and other high-ranking government officials found it necessary to lie about the Islamic terrorist attack on Benghazi; if not to cover-up an unconstitutional and illegal covert action to arm al Qaeda terrorists in the hopes that they would fight the “really bad guys.” Something that would be sanction able in an American court of law.

In the private sector …

Over in the private sector, we see much the same thing with racially-motivated riots, looting, burning, and the destruction of both public and private property while elected officials blather on about root causes and other progressive socialist democrat nonsense. We see activists fighting against large stores like Wal-Mart which brings tax revenue and jobs into the community and provides acceptable quality goods at low prices to those who need it the most, the poor. So why are they fighting? It all comes down to unionization, the desire of the progressive socialist democrats to install socialist unions as the means to control labor, much as the progressive socialist democrats have attempted to control our economy through environmentalism, control individuals through healthcare, and secure a permanent electoral majority through immigration policy. Where the threat of rising minimum wages can be forestalled by operating under a union contractor as we have seen in the Los Angeles hotel industry rules and regulations which exempt only those hotels that are covered by a union contract?

Once again, it comes down to money and power …

The war on terror, the environmental movement, healthcare, and immigration all involve tremendous amounts of money and enlarge the government bureaucracy. Almost to the point where the government reaches critical mass and is no longer beholden to the American citizen – capable of democratically voting for their own self-serving agenda.

So, if it can all be reduced to political power, money, and the support of select special interests, what does that tell us about what we are seeing in the media?

Domestic false flag?

Could it be that what we are really seeing is a massive domestic false flag operation. Allowing the Islamic terrorists abroad and the anarchists here at home to run amok, to gin-up a a domestic situation that demands a massive response from the federal government? Or, at the very least, the noisiest of the agitators to gin up a public demand for the government to intervene?

Think about the massive electronic surveillance system and the impending threat of a national identity card, oops, I meant healthcare access card.Where your whole medical history, financial resources, employment, and lifestyle activities can be tracked by the government in a single dossier. A permanent Facebook on steroids where every interaction with a government controlled entity is Tweeted into your permanent dossier, oops, I meant health record.

We do not even know the extent to which we are being surveiled …

An interesting story about a used Ferrari highlights the issue. Ferrari owners are notoriously anal – some use the word fastidious – and any service that is not performed in an authorized Ferrari dealership is likely to significantly reduce the resale value of the vehicle. Now for the scary part. A Ferrari owner was afraid to have their tire repaired at a local repair shop (cost about $40) and drove to a Ferrari shop (cost $220) because they were afraid that the non-dealer repair would show up on a Carfax report. How many people knew that their service records (including VIN, license plat, mileage, and repair data) were being captured by a reported 25,000 individual repair shops resulting in 1-million service records being added to the database daily? Not to mention their expansion into police accident reports and other related information; 91,000 data sources in all. And, that this unregulated information can be just as damaging to your vehicle sale as a bad credit report?

How many people know that their service history, like their medical and financial data, is being reported to an unaccountable third-party reporting agency who resells the very information that the government cannot legally collect or store to the government?

Bottom line …

There are lingering doubts in my mind.

• As we ramp up to the 2016 presidential election, is our government creating straw men to drive the domestic political agenda?
• Would our government knowingly allow us to be invaded by foreign nationals, not only from Mexico, in order to dilute the historical allegiance to our Constitution? Invaders who become untraceable vectors for disease, crime, and yes, terrorism?
• Would our government be setting the stage of another 9/11-magnitude event to secure the reauthorization of the patriot act – complete with secret laws, secret prisons, and the suspension of our rights as American citizens?
• Would our corporatized mainstream media even report the true story if it didn’t conform to the progressive socialist democrat agenda? Is the seeming toughness of today’s reporting simply a way to regain public credibility before they sell out the nation once again to the progressive socialist democrats?
• Is our government engaged in the Mafia-like protection racket, selling us a non-existent level of safety and security to promote their own political and profitable agenda?

I am afraid, given all we have seen under the Bush and Obama administrations, the answer might be a disheartening YES.
