But it won't happen.<br /><br />Wheat production in Saudia Arabia is no more - the country is now 100% dependent on imported grain.<br /><br />Egypt - the country that was once the breadbasket of the Mediterranean in ancient times is now the leading importer of wheat. See this link:<br /><br />http://www.indexmundi.com/agriculture/?commodity=wheat&graph=imports<br /><br />Egypt is desperately trying to arrange an order for 235 tons of wheat for November. For an understanding of their current financial dilemma as far as paying for so much wheat - see Spengler's latest essay at JINSA Online. BTW, we seem to be giving them monetary loans so they can continue to buy our wheat - sort of a circle jerk - pardon the crudity.<br /><br />Syria is also seeking to purchase 100 tons of wheat. Yemen? Don't even ask, they can't even arrange handouts from NGOs.<br /><br />The Middle East is under severe strain as far as being able to feed their own due to the drought in the US and Europe. Our prices are rising right here in the US.<br /><br />So. Let's stop feeding them. Charity begins at home. And I'm not feeling charitable anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-29438658408012697802012-09-14T19:28:47.849-04:002012-09-14T19:28:47.849-04:00Dear Empress Trudy, I think the reason we "di...Dear Empress Trudy, I think the reason we "did" Libya was because the Europeans and President Obama believed it would be easy, and they needed a pr triumph. They were correct, to a point. They didn't, and didn't need, to think it through to the next move. The next move may well be that Egypt, with a MB govt, lots of people, and no $$$; and Libya with an MB govt., lots of oil and not many people and lots of space will be smart enough to strategically unify.but pygmieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01263583377507852507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-61922587470005110302012-09-14T17:00:17.380-04:002012-09-14T17:00:17.380-04:00No one in the administration thought that they wou...No one in the administration thought that they would be attacking us somewhere on the anniversary of 9/11?<br />What a great president we have- bowing to the ones who want to kill us and then apologizing to them when they do.<br />-mjazzAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-68476712165250262362012-09-14T14:08:53.317-04:002012-09-14T14:08:53.317-04:00I can see no way forward other than a redefining o...I can see no way forward other than a redefining of boundaries, except this is not the lines of a map but a separating of civilisation and barbarism. We have tried mixing people from our side and theirs in the hope the barbarians would ameliorate their wretched behavior, though it is obvious that mixing with them in their world leads to our deaths and mixing in our world erodes our freedoms in order to make them feel 'comfortable' while they refuse to integrate.<br /><br />But no matter what we give (helping to kill Saddam and allowing Gaddafi to be hunted down by peasants with AK47s) it comes back to haunt us.<br /><br />So the future division of the world will involve retreating I fear. There will be the barbarian areas (which will descend into what they desire, which is more barbarism and the demeaning of women) and the rest of us. We cannot, and will not, invite the barbarians to go to the places they say they love so much. They are here among us but we can at least sacrifice some of our lands to ensure we have reasonable lives. It won't be easy but it will be necessary.<br /><br />There will be armies involved, and ours will be to stop the barbarians spreading once again into the non-barbarian world. Theirs will be to kill on the basis some alleged offense.<br /><br />We will, in this broken new world, not elect officials who will insist immigration is 'good for us' and we will not listen to the morons in the MSM who refuse to tell the truth. We will finally acknowledge the barbarian spirit in them was there all along, even as we have to look at the smoke-blackened areas we left where the tribes squabble and kill.<br /><br />And, should any of our people decide they really admire the barbarian way of life, they will be allowed to go and join them as converts. Only on the understanding when they see the hatreds of their new way of life the and diminishing of women they will not come running back begging to be let back in.<br /><br />That may be a dark future, but it may be the only hope for civilization.stevenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-48212788712980935752012-09-14T12:50:41.682-04:002012-09-14T12:50:41.682-04:00There is no Catholic Church today to save the worl...There is no Catholic Church today to save the world from the barbarism of Islam. Modern times are much worse than what existed in the 7th century as the more "enlightened" and "educated" of the so-called Democracies have regressed into pagan, atheistic cultures of deviancy, debauchery, and an actual hatred of humanity itself. Western civilization with its advocacy of abortion, suicide, and the destruction of the human family, as well as its constant push to eventually make the human species extinct through its worship of the earth, is no different than the Muslims who at least, fight for their false god.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-33202042150350903112012-09-13T20:10:26.282-04:002012-09-13T20:10:26.282-04:00Note to Hillary Clinton.

I'm sure that at least half of the dead and maimed American soldiers could have been prevented, but PC took over the western world and better a dead westerner than an enemy one (hence the government apologies for anything). Same in Israel, when they went into Jenin 23 soldiers were killed because they were sent to known booby trapped houses instead of bombing the enemy safely from the air. An Israeli solder today is not alowed to fire on a terrorist only if he is first attacked (he can be dead by then).

Then the attack could be blamed on the West for causing offence to Muslims. This is also standard practice – offensive Jihad cannot take place unless sanctioned by the caliph. As there is no caliph, Jihad has to be defensive, which is the reason they will feed to the ulemma and our own useful idiots.<br /><br />It is interesting that Egypt’s president Morsi’s (Muslim Brotherhood), our most trusted ally in the ME, first statement on the embassy massacre, was to demand an apology from the US.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-4870196833780047532012-09-13T17:15:54.376-04:002012-09-13T17:15:54.376-04:00DP111 wrote..

We help the Libyans overthrow an insane dictator because he clearly stated his intention, however remote the possibility of him doing is, to exterminate the entire population of Bengazi. We got involved not because of what Gadaffy did or did not do but because of what he said his intentions would be should he ultimately be victorious. We got involved in Bosnia and Kosovo not because of what all these people did or didn't do. We got involved because, with an eye to history we didn't want to be judged in the future as a nation that said one thing and did quite another. It was never about them so much as our view of us. We talk modern values of humanity but what we're really saying is we want to do as little as possible while still avoiding the judgment and self criticism of our peers. <br /><br />And if truth were told, the only reason Europe got involved and dragged the US in was not because of violence but because of refugees. Europe saw a distinct possibility of having to accept thousands of Libyan refugees its own humanitarian laws prohibit them from doing anything about other than accepting them. Better they slaughter one another over there than float to Italy and France and make a nuisance of themselves on the dole. <br /><br />So we wrap ourselves in UN pieties and declare we will 'free' these miserables from the chains of their oppressors. Which is nonsense. All we're doing is avoiding bad press in Wikipedia.<br /><br />In the end all we're left with is another gaggle of savages looking to get even with someone about something. Or just wage mayhem for the heck of it because it's more exciting than paving the roads and running the post office. Because you can't construct a civil society. You can't shake a copy of the US Constitution in their face and say 'do this'. A civil society is the end product of hundreds of years of law and learning and respect for law and learning. You don't get to jump from Lord of the Flies right over the entire Enlightenment to land on Amsterdam with free weed and gay rights. It doesn't work that way. <br /><br />So if you're going to get involved be honest about it and simply announce you're enforcing term limits on these bastards and you really don't care who or what comes next because they're all pretty much the same. And when they get out of hand, it will be term limits for them too. Because given the choice between the only two options in the Arab world: fascism or anarchy, pick fascism or something resembling the least anarchic stability that threatens the fewest people outside that country.

Unfortunately, if Obama does anything, it will be to send troops to Libya to reassure the savages that we really want to clean their underwear and smell their armpits in the name of bring them "democracy." What escapes Obama and the MSM is that what we witnessed in Cairo and Benghazi was truly "democracy" in action.
