Isn't this how troop deployment to Vietnam started? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Obama Orders 300 Special Forces Troops to Baghdad President Obama ordered Thursday up to 300 Special Forces troops to Iraq to advise the struggling Iraqi military and possibly help guide U.S. airstrikes against the extremists of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Obama said the combat-equipped troops would serve in a strictly advisory role and their presence would not violate his earlier pledge against putting U.S. "boots on the ground" in Iraq. "American combat troops are not going to be fighting in Iraq again," Obama said at a White House press room briefing. More here |

R.I.P. Farley Mowat

Farley Mowat, one of Canada's best-known authors and a noted environmentalist, has died at age 92.
Mowat won a Governor General's Award for Lost in the Barrens in 1956 and the Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour for The Boat Who Wouldn't Float in 1970. His accolades also included being named an officer of the Order of Canada in 1981 and having a public school near Ottawa named after him in 2006. He joined Canada's Walk of Fame in 2010. Born in Belleville, Ont., on May 12, 1921, Mowat developed an early love of writing and of nature, in part thanks to his father and great-uncle: a strong-minded librarian and an amateur ornithologist, respectively, who took him on his first trip to the Arctic. http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/farley-mowat-dead-at-92-1.2634772 |

Sealing is a way of life and a valuable source of food and income for Canadian Inuit and for thousands of Canadian families in remote coastal communities. The European Union's ban on imports of Canadian seal products threatens this traditional way of life.
Sealing takes place off the Newfoundland coast and near the Magdalene Islands, as well as in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence and Canada's Inuit regions (Nunavut, Nunavik, Inuvialuit and Nunatsiavut). Sealing in Nunavut represents between $4 million to $6 million of food each year. Before the European Union seal ban, incomes from seal pelts could reach up to $1 million annually. Those incomes allowed Inuit to buy the equipment and gas necessary to continue to hunt, thus provide then with a crucial source of food. Overall, the sealing industry provides part-time employment for up to 6,000 people. Using available data, a conservative estimate would put the value of the hunt at $35-40 million annually. Sealing can represent from 25-35% of sealers' total annual income; it is a very significant economic contributor to communities with limited economic opportunities. Seals are not just used for their fur. Seal oil is higher in omega-3 oils than fish oils and has been sold in capsule form in Europe, Asia and Canada for 10 years. Researchers are also looking into the possibility of using harp seal valves as replacements in human heart valve transplants. Canada's seal hunt |

Another Fort Hood Shooting

0bama's latest staged event has already been exposed as a drill which the JMSM has falsely reported as being a shooting. It seems there is a man named Michael Boyd whose headquarters is in the US Southern Command in Lauderdale Florida; and who has been recruiting crisis actors for drills on military bases all across America. His latest venture was at Fort Hood. A link to a site exposing this would help. In the meantime tell the families it was a 'drill'. Fort Hood Reveals Identities of 3 Soldiers Killed |

the questions are, "#why would the Alaskans want to join Russia and what will be Whitehouse's reaction? Will they ignore this cessation just like they did to Crimea or they will grant the right to the Alaskans?" You don't have to live in Alaska to sign this petition.

Hanoi Jane At It Again!

"I'm not fonda Hanoi Jane".... Nam vets will remember that one, and this traitorous biotch! How can you forget the biotch who turns the letters home palmed to her by the prisoners she greeted over to the Cong instead of delivering them to the prisoners families. Her act gave the Cong more info on the prisoners than they had been able to obtain thru torture up to that point. Many good men died as a result of this traitors betrayal! I wish there was a Hell so this biotch could burn in it! The section in bold never happened. Even the vets who supposedly gave her these notes say it never happened. ............................ [The POWs] had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his SSN [Social Security number] on it, in the palm of his hand. When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper. She took them all without missing a beat. At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him the little pile of papers. Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Col. [Larry] Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know about her actions that day. But Carrigan does not corroborate the letter's claims. David Emery of the Urban Legends and Folklore website at about.com has written: "It's a figment of somebody's imagination," says Ret. Col. Larry Carrigan, whom I reached by phone at his home in Arizona. Carrigan, who was shot down over North Vietnam in 1967, says he has no idea why this story was attributed to him. "I never met Jane Fonda," he told me. It goes without saying he never handed her a secret message. The quotes attributed to Carrigan in Emery's account refuting the rumor have been published in several newspapers, including the September 19, 2000, edition of the Oregonian and the May 25, 2001, edition of the New York Daily News. Emery also debunked another baseless attack on Fonda from the chain letter -- that another former POW, Air Force pilot Jerry Driscoll, spat on Fonda in Vietnam and was severely beaten for his actions. As Emery noted, Driscoll called the accusation "the product of a very vivid imagination." http://mediamatters.org/research/2005/04/21/fox-news-military-analyst-hunt-revived-baseless/133083 http://www.snopes.com/military/fonda.asp However, the allegation that she abused American POW’s is not true. It has simply been repeated over and over again, without proof, and duplicated on a number of websites. Respected online resources such as “Snopes”, “Truth Miners,” and “Urban Legends” have all cited key persons in the infamous email as having refuted its claims.[5] One man who was supposed to have encountered Jane Fonda, one Colonel Larry Carrigan, has denied any claim that he ever met her. According to the email she visited Hanoi in 1968. Her visit actually took place in 1972. Chris Appy, a historian who has written about Vietnam, told HNN he once asked POW Porter Halyburton about the claims made against Fonda. Halyburton told him that the POW's had tried to debunk them even though they regarded Fonda as an unsympathetic figure http://hnn.us/article/8920#sthash.ejZRVIwq.dpuf Regardless she should still have stood trial for treason. |

Nelson Mandela has died at the age of 95.
The world has lost a great man. JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- South Africa's president says Nelson Mandela has died at age 95. Jacob Zuma says "we've lost our greatest son." As South Africa's first black president, the ex-boxer, lawyer and prisoner No. 46664 paved the way to racial reconciliation with well-chosen gestures of forgiveness. |

Your bill of rights is flawed... Nothing is ever perfect. However I must ask, why people shouldn't have rights? Our country was founded the principle that people should be independent and not be forced to rely on anyone or anything. Free thinking. Personal responsibility. Independence. Deterring tyranny. Not sure how the Bill of Rights doesn't support that... Perhaps you can elaborate...? Ahhh Finally... a voice of reason, able to communicate with words instead of closed fists. Economics... Why must the safety of your school children depend on economics? I mean, it's inevitable, the economy goes up... the economy goes down... Chisel that in stone! George W... planned this economic disaster in order to thrive economically post war. Your present administration is picking up the pieces of a failed war on terror by negotiating with axis of evil nations. About time too (can't be fighting forever yes?) Only when your troops come home can your nation prosper by supplying logistics and building supplies abroad... There's a catch... China is gaining on your historical strategy of post war prospering. America is imploding with hate, racial divide and anarchy. Your bill of rights to bear arms is dated and must be reviewed... Owning a weapon to defend your family is much different from carrying a Glock to the supermarket? Even us "unarmed Canadians" will punch a few holes in you if you puck with our families... The point I'm trying to make is if your bill of rights allows to carry a loaded weapon in public... when there's so many hotheads, crackheads and puckheads... that have no problem unloading their clips in public. There's a major problem yes? I'll call that right flawed! Defend your home all you want... Don't think for a second I need you to defend me in Wallmart. I call a total ban on weapons possession in public... If you're caught with a weapon, you're either a dead man or you're doing 25yrs in the gulag with special training to be deployed in the most dangerous situations abroad... They become expendable! There ya go, the right to defend yourself and your family without risking public safety. We'll keep our military pros here at home to defend our borders. Laws, like locks, only serve to keep honest people honest. They never have and never will stop a criminal. Oops!! Me bad Canadian. I support NRA. I believe in US 2nd Amendment. I believe that an 'HONEST' armed citizenry can help reduce crime. I am such a bad Canadian. |

good people don't NEED to have a gun unless they live in crime ridden areas where guns are RAMPANT already there is no real compelling evidence to back up either side of the argument, in my opinion there are plenty of studies showing those with guns being more likely to be shot or killed in confrontations than those without the best self defense is between the ears, being aware of your surroundings and how to approach and work with them simple ah....a glimmer of sanity....thanks harmony. OK I'm outta here....this argument gets too emotionally charged which means no one is thinking that well. Also, there is too much at stake financially for the pro gun lobby for them to be objective. Anyone who cannot accept reasonable controls on firearms has no business having one. So the discussion should be on what is reasonalbe with both sides willing to put forth solutions that are negotialbe and workable. For those who cannot do that, the decision will be made for you, by others capable of objectivity and adult decision making. I guess my suggestion is to be level headed and remove the emotion, scare tactics and propaganda to be a valuable contributor who others take seriously. Again knowing that NRA supporters and the gun lobby have too much at stake financially to be making these types of rules alone. Got to agree that the mainstream on both sides of the issue seem incapable of objective thinking. NRA really doesn't stand to make a profit though, they simply tend to be extreme. As are the liberals on this issue. As I stated before neither laws nor guns seem to have much impact on violence or crime, so perhaps underlying causes should be explored before we pit one half of the country instead of the other. None of this is about gun control. Not the issue at all. Its violence and crime. One thing everyone can agree on is we don't like to see violence spreading. Economics is a great place to start. Hey, then we'd get to take care of the economic issues as well. Win, win, win. I disagree NRA doesn't make profit from supporting the gun industry. its not so much the money its the 'profit' the manufacturers who finance the NRA continue to make Its kind of a viscious circle where, in return for keeping the guns and ammo on the street, the gun industry 'contributes' to the NRA and the NRA continues to lobby for them so they can also keep making profit,,, but otherwise, I agree about underlying problems being a great place to start when looking at violence trends... The large majority of NRA's funding comes from people like me ...members. |

A person is justified in using deadly force if [he] [she] reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent
1. imminent death or great bodily harm to [himself] [herself] or another, or 2. the imminent commission of (applicable forcible felony) against [himself] [herself] or another. http://lawofselfdefense.com/jury_instruction/fl-3-6f-justifiable-use-of-deadly-force/ Maybe he should have stayed home instead of committing a felony.
