Thinkin' Outloud

I find it particularly interesting that in the midst of our recession, that will probably manifest into a depression like few could imagine, that our Saudi and other oil “friends” are tightening the screws of the vice that our heads are in. It is obviously an intentional attack upon our society.

Surely with our economy drastically slowed, most Americans are using less fuel. With current prices all of us have cut back and our airlines will pretty much collapse. What is interesting is that this “crisis” didn’t rear its ugly head until our economy was on the path of devistation. How could this not be orchestrated?

Granted, China is fueling demand for oil. But as our demand has decreased due to the economy, that demand is pretty much offset. I cannot see one justification for the current squeeze play that is being put upon us except that it weakens our ability to fight the terrorism that stems from the bowels of the Saudi and Mid-east anti- American society.

The good in the mix is that Americans are fluid and innovative. We can evolve from oil dependency more quickly than any nation in the world. But we need and deserve time. We may suffer, and we may demand fairness at any cost from our oil producing “friends” including the threat of leveling the decadent Dubai in the worst case. The Arabs and the rest of the oil extortionists need to heed to America’s need to economically stabilize or realize that they are committing a virtual act of war against us

If this same scenario happened 5 years ago when our economy was booming, I could have possibly stomached it, but not now.

In closing, let the oil rich, self proclaimed good guy Arabs step up to help with the world’s disasters instead of the proven good ol’ US of A as they are in the position to do so and we no longer are. If they don’t step up to bat, we can exploit their selfishness by simply exposing the truth to the world in the media (but remember that our government has let these Arab folks buy one third of this media). If they step up and show compassion to non-Muslim nations and assume the United State’s roll of rescuing nations after typhoons, tidal waves, and earthquakes we will have some good thoughts. If they don’t, and continue to build another indoor snow skiing resort or building skyscraper luxury buildings 3 times the height of the empire state building, as they are now, and let our economy collapse, we will see a real selfish side of our “friends” who’s countrymen bombed our world trade center.

Simply put, I am tired of this crap. I love America and I want us all to see the world as it really is.

The oil producing nations are capitalizing on the downturn in the U.S. economy to further weaken it and there is some doubt in my mind as to whether this is a prelude to some major move by the Arab communities to entirely cripple our nation. Surely any imbecile could see that now is not the time to land crippling blows to any nation that one might care about at all. I am certain that this economic squeeze play is well planned and on purpose.

I can say that I think this is a valid strategy to employ if one is inclined to harm a nation already on its knees from a major economic down turn. This also might be a way to damage or curtail our military actions in the mid-east, especially if the Arab nations who now hold much of our debt refuse to lend further or refinance our debts as is done regularly. That is the major move that I am concerned about.

If we were to be economically crippled and forced to take a road in the Mid East that is not prudent , such as being forced to allow Iran to develop nukes or over run Iraq, our nation and the entire west will be in a very dangerous situation. If our economy collapses, as it very well may if our creditors betray us, we would change to a different standing in the world almost overnight.

One might view such acts as those as acts one nation at war might take upon their enemy. This is definitely something we might want to think about and plan for.

Let me paint you a picture---Of the beginning of nuclear war.

Kuwait holds $1.3 trillion of debt of our government. The Saudis have between $200 and $300 billion. Other Muslim nations have much more as do private Muslim citizens with great wealth. Each day a portion of this debt becomes due and is renewed and we borrow more from these folks at the same time to keep our government running --Especially the military.

Let’s say these creditors with obviously questionable respect for our country formed a coup and called all of our debt due and refused to lend any more to us. We would then not even be able to pay our more friendly debt holders their payments and surely wouldn’t be able to borrow from almost anyone.

So, we have lets say a year to operate with existing resources---maybe 6 months as our oil would dry up. What are our choices to survive at that point? Especially if we are already in a severe economic depression five or ten years.

Well, I guess we could grovel to the world that has money, our oil rich Muslim “friends”, for help even though they formed a coup to economically kill us and see if they have had a change of heart, which I doubt. Maybe Iran’s new oil rich best friend, Venezuela, would help----not. What do we do.

I guess we could just sit and suffer but I have a feeling that some would think these acts might be acts of war given the harm inflicted upon the American people from them. And, if there was any intent to use this method to intervene in our sovereignty, it would in fact be just that, wouldn’t it?

Now, lets say again that our military has 6 months to a year to act to secure oil and other assets to concrete our political survival and we have the nukes to do so. Which one do you want our leaders to choose for your children?

I am not advocating anything my friends -----just thinking out loud.

Our country needs to set forth as law basic principals for having the right to enjoy the freedoms that we have to offer.

For instance, if some immigrant community ever expresses that their way of life, customs, or religion trumps our constitution or our freedoms, that person and their ilk should be jailed and deported immediately. You don’t want to remove your veil or burka for a picture I.D., you want to perform genital mutilation on women, or if you threaten violence for the writings of another that somehow insults your religion or god, out you go after you get out of jail. This is not the country for you my friend. That is just that simple.

If any church or organization ever is shown to express a desire to harm our country or commi9t genocide on others due to their race or religion, it should be recognized as subversive to our beliefs and way of life and be disbanded.

To enter our country as anything other than a visitor, all should swear, under penalty of jail and deportation, allegiance to our constitution and its absolute protections of others’ ways to believe as they see fit. One threat of violence and you are out. No individual belief should bring harm to any other person. Again, our constitution trumps all religion and customs.

Every person here should be required to accept our nationalism and submit to it. Our national interest prevails over your loyalty to your homeland or you are gone. Our flag is above those of other countries, our country’s borders are fully respected, and our countrymen and women’s interests are absolute over those of any nation you might have come from or off you go. Any immigrant must understand and submit to the principals that are at the heart of our country’s nature and know their welcome here is fully contingent upon this understanding.

I for one don’t want to become Syrian, Mexican, Indian, Chinese, Hmong, Russian, Irish or any other nationality. I happen to be mostly of Irish descent but I am and I want to be American of the United States type and I want everyone here to want the same or my country is being robbed right out from under me.

Is this too much to ask?

I’m for a shoot on sight policy on our borders. A simple 100 yard fully mined, video surveyed automatic machine guns firing at any movement, unmanned drones with weapons to kill anyone daring to enter our country illegally and through the proper channels. Patrols with orders to shoot to kill.

Why not? It’s our country and getting shot is 100% avoidable---don’t come across illegally. If each person was sure to die, deaths would actually fall from their current levels as hundreds die each year in the desert from dehydration and murder by smugglers. Again, it is simple to stay alive---do not illegally cross our borders. This is our country, not to be invaded by anyone who feels like coming here for what ever reason.

Mexico is very strict on its southern borders and illegals there are jailed and tortured. You get caught working a job as an U.S. citizen in Mexico and you will be jailed and treated harshly.

How can you possibly argue with this position unless you do not care about our country. We cannot afford the problem nor do we deserve to support lawbreaking illegal raiders.

We must immediately repeal the “Anchor Baby” laws as well. If you come here illegally and plop a kid down on our soil illegally, that child is illegal and all should be sent directly home and the country of Mexico or wherever they came from billed for any costs for medical care, incarceration, processing, and transportation back to their home. We can’t afford this invasion nor the diseases being drug into our country unchecked. If you feel different that I do, then you should be allowed to sponsor, at your full expense, any costs related to such an anchor family and prove the resources to do so including pledging all of your assets for that purpose as I just don’t feel like pledging my assets and my kids’ futures for that purpose.

If your child is not a citizen, he or she gets no school, welfare, nothing. If you get caught one time entering illegally, you are forever barred from applying for citizenship period--no exceptions.

Commit a felony in the United States while here illegally, your prison time is mandatory and tripled in length and your country on origin is billed for such costs related there to including legal defense.

Get caught here illegally and you get a simple deportation hearing in front of a citizen panel without legal representation and sent home with a bill for our expenses sent to your government. Any non-citizen is barred from using our courts unless in the process of becoming a legal immigrant.

If here for any reason as a non-citizen, you are fingerprinted and your retina is scanned and put on a highly accessible data base so those with work visas who apply for work can be verified as legally here in minutes at any law enforcement facility.

All monies or assets found to be in possession of illegal aliens are confiscated---period. Any employer hiring illegal workers should be taxed at 100% as a penalty. All monies being sent out of the country via money orders should require proof of legal residency to the vendor.

If we aren’t going to protect our sovereignty, then why don’t we just abandon our homes and businesses and just let this ever increasing anarchy just have its way with us and not recognize our national rights at all. You know, just say screw it and let our county collapse to a point that no one would want to be here anyway.
