Odyssey Dawn

Again, I think of Yogi Berra's famous line: It's deja vu all over again!

As if it wasn't enough to have a current occupation/war in Afghanistan, a mop-up operation in Iraq, and a proxy-drone based-undeclared war in Pakistan? The administration, the Pentagon, and the UN's group of seven, have jumped in - feet first into another war. Perhaps, this operation would be more aptly titled "Dawn of World War Three", not Odyssey Dawn.

While our president visits Brazil and other nations in Latin America - just in time to kick-off his re-election bid (until now he has totally ignored Latin America); While Obama points out the positive changes that have taken place in Brazil, our nation descends into the doldrums of the worst "recession in history". Are we better off now than we were 2 years ago? Yet, Obama gallivants around, while the price of gasoline is 76 cents higher than it was last year at this time. Our president fills out his "brackets" for the March Madness College Basketball competitions. With all the unrest and natural disasters all around the world? Talk about arrested development? Talk about (trickle down) dumbing down of the masses? And this sports fetish was covered as a televised news conference?

Under these perplexing conditions our nation escalates hostilities with yet another Muslim nation. FYI: Islam is not the problem, Muslims are not the problem. The real problems are the secret terrorists that are fomenting many of the uprisings, the religious attacks, and the disasters around the planet. Can you guess who these nefarious characters are? I'll give you three guesses: Ordo Ab Chao. And here's another one: Their motto is "The end Justifies the means". If you still don't know who I'm referring to? Well, let's then continue with the 'story' of Odyssey Dawn -

The first major attack of "Odyssey Dawn" came as 112 Tomahawk cruise missiles struck surface-to-air missiles, early warning sites, and key communication modes. It's the first step in enforcing a no-fly zone.

As the situation in Libya escalated toward international war, the Obama administration was careful to portray US involvement as “supportive” with other countries in the lead. But on day one of the multinational conflict, it was the United States that provided most of the firepower and command direction for "Operation Odyssey Dawn."

Just hours – perhaps minutes – after an emergency summit in Paris on implementing the UN Security Council resolution authorizing military action in Libya, French and British fighters were probing Libyan airspace...
