The START treaty Empowers Russia

Russia is in no position to get into an arms race with the US. Their economy is not robust enough to sustain a long protracted race. By limiting our defenses we are empowering Russia.

For several years, Russia has been pouring money into expanding their influence around the world. They have made deals with countries that are very hostile to America. They have set up naval bases in South America and Syria. They have supplied our enemies, including Iran, with military equipment, including nuclear capability. All these countries are potential surrogates to battle us both militarily and economically.

Just like the old Soviet Union, Russia will not directly attack us but be the beneficiary of US conflicts with these countries. They are eroding our relationships with our friends. Eastern Europe is becoming more and more energy dependent on Russia which supplies gasoline and natural gas to Eastern Europe. Russia has flexed its power by cutting off supplies, officially for ‘technical’ reasons. However as soon as their point was made, the ‘technical’ problems seemed to disappear.

President Reagan called the Soviet Union's bluff and helped to bankrupt the them, thereby eliminating the threat they posed to the world. It is ludicrous to think that the US will attack Russia militarily. The world threat is from militant Islamic nations and groups. Russia is working on using them against us. They also know that these same elements are a real danger to them just as they are to us. The START treaty allows Russia to build ‘defense systems’ but limits the US, including protecting our friends. The Obama administration canceled missile defenses for Eastern Europe based in the Czech Republic and Poland. They even stooped to black mailing those countries by cutting off energy sources making it hard for them to push the system.

We do not need the START treaty but Russia does. Russia is not our friend, so why should we empower a country that is hostile to us. There is nothing in the treaty about real live threats to us from terrorist regimes and groups. Start is bad for America and we must not ratify it.

Big Reason For Energy Self-reliance

If there was no Israel, no Jews, no Christians, nor any other infidels, the internal struggle within Islam would still threaten the world. When Muhammad died a huge rift appeared in Islam because Muslims could not agree who will take over. This bitter struggle between Sunni and Shia Muslims is greater than the hate that both sides have towards the rest of the world

Iran's First Move...

With total control of the Hormuz "oil chokepoint" in the Persian Gulf
and new power in "liberated" Iraq, the Iranians have a brand new foothold
for kicking off the long-awaited "Shia Revolution."

By blocking the Straits of Hormuz causing a worldwide oil shortage, oil prices will surge above $250/barrel. Gas and other products derived from petroleum, prices will soar. Even though most of America’s oil does not come from the Middle East, our economy will suffer along with the rest of the world.

We must be oil self-reliant by the time this happens. Even if the Middle East erupts before we start pumping, we can stave off much of the effect if we start exploiting our own oil reserves NOW!

Even if the rest of the world unites to defeat Iran, the damage will be done. All countries will have to depend on oil from Russia, Venezuela, and other countries trying to dominate world economies. We have more than enough reserves to see us through this calamity. We need to press Congress and state legislators start drilling NOW!

33 minutes to the end

Recently I was at an event that had some very scary information. It concerned the recent revelations of the missile capability of nations that have outwardly sworn to destroy us. Our enemies have missile capability to strike us from their land in just over a half hour. What is more threatening is they now can do it less than ten minutes. Iran has been testing firing missiles form barges at sea, with high degree of success. That and the close relationship with Chavez of Venezuela we could be attacked off both our coasts from freighters. A simultaneous EMP attack would destroy our nationwide capability to communicate, transport electricity, render most vehicles and airplanes inoperable, and generally disable all commerce. Our military could not effectively retaliate. Stores would run out of food and other items with in a week or two. We would not be able to re-supply them.

Here is an excerpt from Watchman Magazine:
If you have wondered what an EMP attack is, William R. Graham a Former NASA official and one who has worked in numerous government appointments gives a description.

The scariest and most threatening kind of EMP attack is initiated by the detonation of a nuclear weapon at high altitude in the range of 25 to 250 miles above the Earth’s surface. The immediate effects of EMP are disruption of, and damage to, electronic systems and electrical infrastructure. Such a detonation over the middle of the continental U.S. “has the capability to produce significant damage to critical infrastructures that support the fabric of U.S. society and the ability of the United States and Western nations to project influence and military power,” William R. Graham

With the enemies surrounding America as we send all troops overseas, it makes you wonder who is left to keep the peace and order such something happen. But that is under control because the Bush Administration has taken several actions that will allow ‘martial law’ within the nation. That said, it would have been nice of the administration and congress to at least put a more secure border up. This would be both Canadian and American plus the Mexico and American borders. The eyes today are on the fall when rumor, sources, and even some named officials have been on record saying Bush will attack Iran in the Fall. This is to be seen yet, but the news is spreading like a wildfire of epic proportions. If Bush doesn’t attack this fall then all those so called sources, news stories, and even Israel will be in the quiet column, all wondering what happened. Of course this leaves the country wondering if an EMP will occur when or if we do attack Iran. Good question, no doubt, we will find out in the future. For now, though, here is the report download link. Take a look, if you see anything good in it besides being warned as to how badly prepared we are, then maybe another article would suffice.

The Heritage Foundation has produced a documentary highlighting how current plans for development of a missile defense system are being cut. Be on the lookout for its release in your area. At this time the US is not protected by an adjudicate missile defense system. We are not protected and open to attack. Be on the lookout for the screening.
