[Follow up to blog post, "China's 21st Century War to Destroy the U.S. | Wake up! We Are Losing!"] Something is very wrong. The number of press stories / pentagon reports / think-tank assessments and arbitrary Joe Geek office cube conversations revolving around Chinese Hackers continues to escalate and very little notice (publicly) appears to [...]

Texas Governor Rick Perry stirred the stick of popularism yesterday with his war-cry of secession from the Union during the Texan-chapter of the not-so-great Tea Party rallies. Alas a firebrand pitchfork and torch march on Capitol Hill was not the reality hoped for by hundreds and the mainstream media added just the right measure of [...]

The Middle East – and Iran issue specifically – lies at the center of so many foreign policy hurdles for the United States. The pursuit of peace in the Middle East and the reestablishment of a legitimate U.N. entity can only start with a proven warming of relations between the U.S. and Iran. – A [...]

The scent of blood is in the water. The U.S. is on its knees and its enemies are taking bite-sized chunks out of the perception of the invincibility, stability, and confidence that has been the United States of America circa 20th Century.
