Hormuz and Beyond

Far too many people, even some on the right side of the political aisle have a narrow view regarding the Strait of Hormuz and are far too quick to condemn Trump for “mishandling the war.”

They claim that President Trump has made the war against Iran “all about oil” and “all about the Strait of Hormuz” proclaiming over and over again that “we don’t get any oil from Hormuz, and we should have left the Hormuz situation to those that do get their oil from it.” To suggest, or believe that the U.S. doesn’t benefit from shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, or that others should have been left to deal with it because we don’t benefit from it is myopic and in some cases, hypocritical.

It’s time to set the record straight, especially for those who have complained that the war is all about oil, and everything else has been ignored.

Weekend Edition: As ISIS Expands, Obama Shrinks

tnp eagleThe mainstream media is soft-selling one thing and propagandizing another in an attempt to distract Americans from Obama’s disastrous agenda and I, for one, am sick of it.

On the propaganda hard-sell side we have Ebola.

Right now, the mainstream media is whipping up fears of some mass outbreak of Ebola in the United States, flooding the news with tales of a “POSSIBLE” pandemic and issuing “warnings” of what MIGHT happen.

IF the virus were to MUTATE…Katie bar the door…PANIC!!!

And worse yet, there are people who are buying into it and even going so far as to urge Americans to flee big cities and run away into the country to avoid it.

BULLCRAP!!!

Ebola is not an airborne virus and the only way to contract it is via direct contact with the bodily fluids of someone already infected with it. COULD it mutate? Yes. WILL it mutate? Maybe but it would take a long, LONG time for that to happen and as the mainstream media is eager to pass along, several people have recently come INTO the United States with what could POSSIBLY be Ebola but, what they DON’T want you to know is that other than the one doctor and the one nurse now in isolation in Atlanta…NONE of the other Ebola suspects actually HAD or HAVE Ebola. NONE of them but that doesn’t feed the panic dog now, does it?

It wouldn’t provide Obama with the much needed distraction from HIS disastrous doctrine in the Middle East…would it?

As long as people are busy looking at the shiny Ebola ball over HERE…nobody will care WHAT is happening over THERE.

That’s where the SOFT-sell comes in.
