As predicted by yours truly, Obama's fighting force is now targeting the refineries and oil fields in Iraq and Syria to cripple the flow of wealth pouring into the pockets of the Islamic State. Where are the Democrats that hammered Bush about his War for Oil? If, according to liberal left logic, politicians only wage war to either line their pockets, gain more power, or both, then why is Obama dropping bombs on oil fields in the Middle East?
Obama told the U.N. Assembly that humanity's future depends on Obama's war. His is a righteous war, and necessary war, unlike that warmonger named Bush who put boots on the ground. Wasn't that how Obama campaigned for President? He called the Iraq War the wrong war, and the Afghanistan conflict the right war. So, what does he call his military action against ISIS? Don't get me wrong, I agree the Muslim terrorist organization called ISIS has to be dealt with, and I am not challenging the decision to do something. I am simply questioning how it is that the anti-war candidate can wage war, use similar rhetoric as his predecessor, yet be safe from any criticism from the media while the liberal press was ready to hang Bush for his war crimes as he conducted missions in the Middle East that Congress was more than happy to approve, and with a coalition that dwarfed the help Obama is getting.
I am told that Obama's war is different, that he is dancing a fine line, but he hasn't crossed it. His war is a necessary war, and he is doing everything he can to make it a peaceful war. . . or something like that.
The only reason Obama's getting a pass is because he is the liberal left messiah, and because he has a "D" for his party designation after his name. Trust me, if he was a Republican, the proverbial ca-ca would be hitting the fan, and there would be anti-war riots erupting on college campuses around the nation.
Oh, and now that they've hit the oil refineries, Obama will be forced to put boots on the ground. Just you watch.
Code Pink has got to be going nuts, right about now. They may be nuts, but at least in their anti-war rhetoric, they're consistent. Everyone else is not consistent, because it is all about a political agenda before it's about what they believe, or what they think is right or wrong. Plus, they all want to protect the historical president.
Remember how I began this piece? That's right, I said, "As predicted by yours truly." I saw this decision to hit the oil facilities in Syria and Iraq before they made that decision. . . because 1. Obama is predictable, and 2. It was inevitable to have to hit the oil facilities if they were going to be able to cripple ISIS.
From my article, "Obama's World of War" a couple days ago:
"What's worse for Barry Soetoro, is that ISIS has plenty of wealth behind what they are doing due to the control ISIS is gaining over oil. So, a part of Obama's strategy will have to be to protect the oil. . . making the war in Iraq a war over oil - while he tries to tell us it is not about oil."
