PARALLELS - A HISTORY LESSON - OIL EMBARGO and WAR

PARALLELS - A HISTORY LESSON - We ARE headed for WAR. Can we prevent it?

What does history have to say about Trump's call for an oil embargo against North Korea?

Late July, 1941, the United States froze Japanese assets, and establisted an oil embargo on Japan. The situation was that Japan had invaded China, Indonesia, parts of Russia and was in a full on imperialistic march toward world domination. When Japan calculated that their oil and gas reserves were to run out soon, they were then compelled to attack the instigators of the embargo; the United States. Nearly wiping out the entire U.S. Naval Fleet, and capturing key areas of Southeast Asia would allow them to freely exploit the natural resources of those countries in order to continue their march for military supremacy. This resulted in the deaths of over 3 million Japanese and about half a million Americans. There's a lot more to it, so google the history when you get a chance.

While the current threat of North Korea's nuclear capability is on a different level of threat, they are not trying to take over the world. Nonetheless, we've spent the last few decades trying to reduce the risk of nuclear holocaust by reducing stockpiles and using both sanctions and incentives to keep non-nuclear countries from acquiring nukes. Sanctions are important if we're to ever reverse Kim Jung Un's aggression. At the same time, diplomacy is required in order to convince him that we're not trying to conquer North Korea.

GETTING COOPERATION, THEN OBLITERATING THEM; THE PATH TO DISTRUST
One of the biggest challenges is to get Un to overlook the fact that we also convinced Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi to abandon their nuclear aspirations, and then proceeded to support their overthrow and assassinations. Actions speak louder than words, and diplomatic efforts need to be accompanied by guarantees. Frankly, I don't have a clue how we do that, but someone needs to figure it out. Perhaps Republicans need to just look at the progress that we made with Iran in order to find a path with North Korea.

OIL EMBARGO EQUALS WAR
Implementing an embargo on natural resources on North Korea, as Trump has proposed, is almost a guarantee that Kim Jung Un will have no alternative but to declare war against the United States, which means that U.S. strategic positions all around South-East Asia will be under attack. Whether or not this involves nuclear warfare is unknown, but either way, South Korea, Japan and other U.S. allies in the region will suffer unimaginable losses, and North Korea will be destroyed.

All of this is unnecessary. The psychopath that holds the highest position in the country is not mentally equipped to deal with this situation. He continually pokes the bear, and is hell bent to provoke a military response from North Korea in order to start his war. The President of the United States is mentally unstable. Member of his own cabinet say that he has dementia, yet the Republicans who have the majority in both the House and Senate continue looking the other way.

The President, as well as the GOP establishment are threats to humanity. We're currently in a race against the clock. If they do not choose to remove this President very soon, then we MUST remove the Republicans from the House and Senate, so that sanity can do its thing.

We ARE headed for WAR.  

REPUBLICANS SHOULD VOTE FOR ROY MOORE

REPUBLICANS SHOULD VOTE FOR ROY MOORE

Be true to yourself, Republicans. You sanctioned and approved of child molestation and sexual assault when you voted in Trump as President.

You supported a man that admitted to sneaking in to Miss Teen America dressing rooms in order to see young girls in the middle of changing outfits. To gain a peek at young boobs, and then kissing them on the lips when they were clearly shocked and taken aback at an old fat man walking in on them.

"Well, I'll tell you the funniest is that I’ll go backstage before a show, and everyone's getting dressed and ready and everything else, and you know, no men are anywhere. And I'm allowed to go in because I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it. You know, I'm inspecting, I want to make sure that everything is good.

You know, the dresses. ‘Is everyone okay?’ You know, they're standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody okay?’ And you see these incredible looking women, and so, I sort of get away with things like that.." said Trump.

You supported the man who admitted to assaulting women by groping their crotches, stating that they let him do that because he's rich and famous.

"...I moved on her, actually. You know, she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it. I did try and fuck her. She was married...and I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, “I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.” I took her out furniture —I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.  Yeah, that’s her. With the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything...", said Trump

You supported a man who had more women accuse him of rape and assault than Roy Moore, and then made them go away with threats of both bodily harm as well as financial ruin. The evidence is clear.

"...Eleven women came forward during the 2016 campaign to accuse the then-Republican presidential candidate of unwanted touching or kissing. Other women accused Trump of walking in on them when they were undressing at beauty pageants he owned." -Washington Post

You supported a man who, while the tape has yet to be made public, accepted the bribe of prostitutes in Russia, and let them urinate on him. Multiple sources confirm that a tape exists. It's just a matter of time, but you knew about it a year ago.

You voted for a Russian conspirator
You voted for someone who called for violence against non-supporters.
You voted for someone thought Puerto Rico was a separate country with its own President.
You voted for someone who threatened nuclear war against Iran and North Korea, and continues.
You voted for someone who hired multiple Putin operatives.
You voted for someone who ripped off hundreds of contractors, bankrupting several in the process.
You voted for someone who has evaded taxes, and lied about releasing his tax returns.
You voted for someone who continues insulting American national security leaders.
You voted for someone who praises dictators and murderers.
You voted for someone who doesn't understand democracy.
You voted for a DRAFT DODGER, who is now Commander-in-Chief.
You voted for someone who insults women, Gold Star families, and anyone who isn't white.

There is actually too much to list, but putting it simply, you're disgusting human beings.

It should also be noted that sexual assaults in primary, middle and high schools are up 70% in 2017, and so are hate crimes against non-whites. Nicely done, Republicans. You're getting what you paid for. In addition, your state income tax deduction is about to be removed. Your party lied to you, as they do election after election, promise you crumbs of cake, and you gladly accept it. Then, the football is lifted, just as you are about to kick it, just like Lucy and Charlie, and just like Charlie, you're right there next time swinging your leg at the air.

So, be true to yourself. Vote for Moore. You're an idiot, so be true to yourself and stick a firecracker up your ass.

ps: It's articles like this that disqualify me to run for Congress. Truth isn't always appreciated, but nasty articles like this can be a breath of fresh air nonetheless.
