the world that we will never have to see. I imagine he was looking up at screens with photographs or video and live streams of what is going on there, revealed by all forms of intelligence, first hand from people explained or showing it, or obtained by advanced technology. There are satellite capabilities that put Google Earth to shame, and we know how clear and close up those images can be.

He's hurt, saddened and exasperated by all the hate and greed in this. I'm glad he is keeping to the goal of saving lives in the midst of the all out battles, and able to get some willing to take our aid, but it must be limited now.

The neo-cons want to a full fledged war with boots on the ground and carpet bombing - they advocate for mass killing or even, if given time, for genocide - for hegemonic ambitions.

Others would have the same thing, and abandon those put at risk by the Bush adventure in Iraq, by doing nothing. As if we owed them nothing for war crimes and can walk away from the damage. Very Bush and Cheney like.

Odd to see them say they hate what Bush did to these people but now say they are willling to stand by and watch them die from the chaos Obama is trying to get us out of. Where is the love and peace in that?

Obama is trying to prevent a specific and blatant form of genocide upon those who have begged the USA for help through several entities. I hope the food and water drops allow them to survive until they can transported to safety.

That is the goal, but it will be hard to achieve in a state of open warfare. May it be the end result of this.

EOM.
