Wow; WTF is Iran thinking.
They must be ready for war. Must be, because they are mongering. Of course I'm American, I have freedom, I have wealth (relatively), I have health and options and opportunities, so am I biased? I try not to be, really, but is absolute objectivity ever attainable? Nevertheless, lets try to look at this sad and frustrated, mentally ill Iranian governmental body (i understand the peoples of Iran are actually excellent people, frustrated by their yoke'ish government). Um, yeah, they have a bit of a history of taking hostages,
"Of course, one only needs to look back on the glorious history of the Islamic Republic to answer that question. After all, you are the same people that seized the American Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held over 50 American diplomats hostage for more than a year. In 1982, you deployed your Qods Force to Lebanon to create another laudable group – Hezbollah. Not happy with just that feat, you began taking hostages there, seizing and murdering the CIA Chief of Station in Beirut and a U.S. Marine colonel serving with the United Nations," Lt. Col. Rick Francona.
I hate the thought of war... or to propagate the atmosphere of war. However, I am a student of history (as we should well all be) and World Wars have all been precipitated by elements we see on a daily basis in the world we now live in. Sad and Scary days.

..The end of the World as We Know It.
This is my first posting, my first blog, and my first intention to voice the concerns and common-sense realities facing this nation and world.
I begin this effort to open the doors of obviousness, to spotlight the overwhelming problems facing you, and I, our friends and our nation -- once the true "promised land."
My monologues will be dedicated to the truth.. the simple truth (sometimes not so simple. Truth is a funny thing; truth is an absolute, something is either true, or it is not. Somehow the world and its pundits have spun truth into a value of timing, perception, politics, and beliefs. Of course interpretation is paramount in the understanding of any and all things; however, truth is simply that... it is that it is.
My interest is somewhat selfish -- I am increasingly overwhelmed and agitated by the state of the world and our nation. There are HUGE problems facing us... all of us. They say ignorance is bliss, perhaps it is when pertaining to certain things of inconsequence -- but, ignorance when it comes to the health (both figuratively and literally) of our global society and its individuals is death -- it is choosing death as opposed to life, choosing failure opposed to success, choosing great loss and suffering opposed to greater good and the pursuit of healthy happiness.
I will be back, gladly to extrapolate further on YOUR world and YOUR options to do and say what you know -- somewhere in that soul / mind/ heart -- deserves being acted upon.
