what is this Lybia you speak of all knowing Chump?
So that would be not bailing?
And then what?
Was I supposed to answer before you posted?So tell me what the all knowing CHUMP would do to handle the situation boiling to a head in North Africa and the Middle East.
Yeah, I figured as much. No solid opinion from the ing pussy. Just sniping at others opinions.
The army is in charge of Egypt as always. I'm sure Obama knew what they were going to do before he even said anything. That's how these things work. Mubarak was going down because the army was not backing him -- that was apparent early on. You give way too much credit to Obama for tipping the scales or encouraging more rebellions. was happening regardless.
Libya is going to be much stickier and will probably cost some coin. Can't do anything unilaterally there, but there seems to be other willing parties.
Bahrain simply doesn't worry me as much as you are trying to be scared about it. I expect the monarch there to make a load of concessions soon as we have already seen in Oman. I can certainly guess that the US already has a hand in guiding those concessions behind the scenes.
No, I just knew that you only live to snipe at others takes and don't have solid takes of your own.
Too late.
Damn. Chump actually posts an opinion. You seem to have a lot more confidence in the State Department than I do.
Most of it is out of their hands.
Are you ever going to tell us what you would do regarding Bahrain now, CC?
Or are you just going to snipe at my takes?
LMAO at Chump getting defensive.
Quite the opposite.
What would you do now about Bahrain, CC?
cc is a hannity fan lol.
Did Hannity predict a multiracial transcontinental Shia caliphate too?
he'd talk tough
Is the Pentagon Strong-Arming the White House into Subverting Mideast Democratic Uprisings?
Look closely and outlines emerge of the ways in which the Pentagon and those oil-rich nations have pressured the White House to help subvert the popular democratic will sweeping across the greater Middle East.
Bullets and Blackhawks
A TomDispatch analysis of Defense Department do ents indicates that, since the 1990s, the United States has transferred large quan ies of military materiel, ranging from trucks and aircraft to machine-gun parts and millions of rounds of live ammunition, to Bahrain’s security forces.
the U.S. supplied Bahrain with enough .50 caliber rounds -- used in sniper rifles and machine guns -- to kill every Bahraini in the kingdom four times over. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency did not respond to repeated requests for information and clarification.
In addition to all these gifts of weaponry, ammunition, and fighting vehicles, the Pentagon in coordination with the State Department oversaw Bahrain’s purchase of more than $386 million in defense items and services from 2007 to 2009, the last three years on record. These deals included the purchase of a wide range of items from vehicles to weapons systems. Just this past summer, to cite one example, the Pentagon announced a multimillion-dollar contract with Sikorsky Aircraft to customize nine Black Hawk helicopters for Bahrain’s Defense Force.
The six member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council include (in addition to Bahrain) Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, all of which have extensive ties to the Pentagon. The organization reportedly strong-armed the White House by playing on fears that Iran might benefit if Bahrain embraced democracy and that, as a result, the entire region might become destabilized in ways inimical to U.S. power-projection policies.
"Starting with Bahrain, the administration has moved a few notches toward emphasizing stability over majority rule," according to a U.S. official quoted by the Journal. "Everybody realized that Bahrain was just too important to fail."

As just another division of the VRWC's UCA, the MIC dictates foreign policy to transfer taxpayer wealth to corps and make the world safe for UCA's predatory, avaricious (oil) corps.
http://www.smh.com.au/world/hundreds...316-1bw8j.htmlAt least 200 people have been shot and wounded in a Shi'ite village south of the Bahraini capital, a medic says, as the king imposed a state of emergency after bringing in Saudi and Emirati troops to help quell anti-regime protests.
American imperialism at it's finest
Screaming democracy only at select locations
Watch what we say, not what the MIC does.
If CC or any of the others posters spend two years and many millions of dollars telling everyone that they are the best person in the country to deal with all the problems of the world then you have a fair question. Until then it's pretty ridiculous that you expect them to come up with the solutions themselves.
"best person in the country"
No, just a better person that the feeble-minded, emotionally unstable McLiar and his out-of-control, ignorant, rabble-rousing TV celebrity sidekick.
I don't recall "I'm not very good but I'm better than McCain" being an Obama campaign slogan.
snakeboy coming to hannity's rescue.....i mean cc's rescue. lol
If cc is going to whine about the solutions that the president comes up with, I don't think it's unfair to ask what the better solutions are.
So far, it appears cc would just rather whine.
Are y'all REALLY that stupid? Obama already blew it in Egypt. The wind is now in the sails of the rebels across North Africa and the Middle East. There is now no solution except to personally stay as far away from talking about Bahrain and Saudi Arabia as possible. Obama has figured that out and is headed to Rio for vacation. All we will hear is vague statements from minions in the State Department about advocating "political solutions" in the area.
You're the only one here who thinks he blew it because it seems you're the only one that wants the dictators to win.
Manny....seriously...You don't realize that our GOVERNMENT wants stable, reliable, and friendly governments in place there which also happens to be the dictators and kings? It's not MY policy, its the policy of the USA.
