They say Osama was really delighted when he heard that the towers
had collapsed. It was more than he could have hoped for. I think he somehow
thought that because we had left Lebanon after the bombings of the Marines
there, that this attack would find us leaving the middle east, stop supporting
Israel, and more importantly to him, evacuate our bases in Saudi Arabia, and
then probably the caliphate, the sunni caliphate.
But then here come the Americans, badda bing badda boom, and he is
driven out of Afghanistan. But maybe we were a little loose there, depending on
the northern alliance to do the heavy lifting, and he escapes the noose to his
little compound in Pakistan. I don’t think we know exactly when he arrived
there, but it looks like he was pretty much out of the game by
then.
But then we get into Iraq, and Saddam, who was no particular pal of
Al Qaeda, is gone like the wind, and then we fuck up on replacing him, and then
the country is ablaze and the next thing you know there are all these Al Qaeda
wannabes, which maybe made Osama happy, or maybe he thought of them as rivals,
maybe he wanted to be the one to restore the Caliphate. But we’ll never know
because then we killed him.
And then, to hear it from McCain lately, we achieved victory in
Iraq, although I have to wonder what he means by victory, but then we threw it
all away by withdrawing, and it went back to being a hellhole, but not our
hellhole anymore.
And now we are backing out of Afghanistan, only for some reason
that I cannot fathom, Obama wants to leave a bunch of troops there, I guess to
hang out in some mountain redoubt and pop off guys we don’t like, much like the
assassins of yore. But Karzai, who we once thought looked like George
Washington, but not so much anymore, wants us out, sort of. More likely just
wants some sort of bribe because once we go, we take our riches with us, and
what do the Afghanis do for money then?
But it doesn’t matter much anymore because the freedom loving
Syrians took up arms to topple their terrible dictator, but then at some point,
most likely because Hezbollah decided to help out their non-sunni pal, Assad,
And then the freedom loving Syrians had to take help anywhere they could get it,
and the best helpers were the Al Qaeda types, though they tended to want to take
over the whole operation, and as long as they were at it, kill all the
non-sunnis they could come across.
And then Obama made that foolish red line statement, and then got
his finger tangled in that red line, and it looked like we were going to get
sucked into another hellhole, but then through incredibly lucky happenstance he
wriggled his finger free and it looks like everybody is getting together to
eliminate chemical weapons. And I think they are but not because we are all
pals, because everybody had their own reasons.
And then Iran made a deal with us, a pretty tentative deal, but
making any kind of deal with the great satan is a big deal. I think they want
to get rid of those sanctions, but I suspect that they are willing to put the A
bomb on the shelf so that they can concentrate on what they really want to do,
which is help Hezbollah help Assad, while the Saudis help the Syrian rebels, and
the great sunni/shia war, which is what they really always wanted to do, and
this whole anti american thing was just a sideshow to, can
commence.
That’s what I think, of course it may be something else entirely.
Who knows?
