Rajjpuut generally believes that leakers of secret and top secret documents deserve death or death and dismemberment for betraying our country and putting all of us, especially our military at risk -- however, the wikileak revelation of a huge stockpile of Afghanistan War documents might just prove to be a blessing in disguise. You see, it appears that our military and our state department have been lying to us and apparently to themselves for at least six years now as they’’ve relied upon Pakistan as an ally against the Taliban-led insurgency in Afghanistan and provided that same Pakistan with $6 Billion in military aid just for the purpose of fighting that insurgency. In other words we have been married to an unfaithful spouse whose promiscuity has betrayed us to point of literally making our troops murder victims . . . .
Besides all the other foolish short-sightedness tied up in this notion, is the fact that A) Pakistan has a nuclear-armed military which could fall into the Taliban’s hands, as well as that initial release by wikileak of documents indicates that B) Bin Laden’s whereabouts is probably known by the Pakistani secret police C) that money given by America may be financing the Taliban and Al Queda D) under Bin Laden an Al Queda burser may be attending meetings with Iran on one side of Pakistan and with the North Koreans in Pakistan itself to arrange weapons deals and E) when drone missiles hit Al Queda and Taliban targets in Pakistan, Pakistani secret police have played a role in spreading the uproar over “the deaths of innocent civilians” by the Americans. Now we (the American people) know who our enemies are and we can demand our military face the facts.
Rajjpuut suggests not one dime more be paid to Pakistan until Bin Laden is delivered to us; until the Taliban and Al Queda are rooted out of Pakistan and North Korean and that Pakistan be informed that further aid or comfort or complicity in hiding Taliban and Al Queda be announced as grounds for war against Pakistan. Since as a practical matter it’s very likely that none of these laudable demands/goals will be forthcoming, Rajjpuut suggests a different approach concentrating upon 100% drone protection of the border of Afghanistan from encroachment by Iran, by forces from Pakistan, from all others within two miles into Pakistan, etc. and within six miles inside Afghanistan. That should provide our troops with a seven mile “buffer zone” and ample opportunity for satellite reconnaissance internal to Afghanistan to allow us a huge strategic and tactical advantage over any trespassers . . . and the opportunity village by village to rout out the Taliban and for our nation-building projects to work. AMEN!
Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

When it comes to former enemies and disfunctional Muslim regimes, Barack Obama has a yellow streak a mile wide coloring his back. And his lackeys? Even worse it seems as U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice rather than opposing Iran’s new seat on the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) was out getting her hair done or nails or, who can know because our U.N. representative skipped the U.N. altogether rather than showing up to oppose Iran being seated on the important international women’s rights commission at the U.N.
Naming Hitler “Rabbi” would probably be less offensive than seating Iran on any panel dealing with women’s rights, if there is a more hostile regime on earth toward women than Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s little insane asylum, Rajjpuut is unaware of it .
Item: Less than three weeks ago, Iranian cleric Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi of Tehran said that women’s immodest behavior and clothing was the cause of earthquakes. Good job, Kaze, Rajjpuut is very interested in what makes the earth move for men and women . . . .
Item: Women in Iran are stoned to death if their husband merely claims infidelity.
Item: Women can be arrested for sunbathing or sporting a tan.
Item: Accusations of homosexual behavior by women by their husband is grounds for execution. Male homosexuality gets flogging, and the homosexuality must be proved.
Item: Wearing of western style clothing by a woman is grounds for immediate arrest and imprisonment.
Item: 9-year old girls can be married off by their families.
Item: No matter if the husband in an arranged marriage is 60 years older than his girl-bride, she has no recourse if her father sells her off.
Item: Iranian Men who drink alcohol or gamble can be publically whipped; women doing the same thing are eligible for death by stoning.
Item: Men who even feel their wife is “uppity” can beat her as much as they wish. Much Islamic discussion in Iran is spent discussing the size and flexibility of the recommended rod used for such beating. Actually, Rajjpuut is NOT opposed to this one . . . . : )
Item: The Iranian dress code for women and policy of discouragement of women’s education is closely akin to the Taliban’s.
Item: Iran’s own women’s rights activists (while dodging stones?) wrote a letter to the U.N. Commission on the Status of Women declaring that placing Iran on the CSW would seriously set back the cause of women everywhere.
Item: Unmarried Iranian women caught having sex may be executed.
Item: Women expressing opposition to sharia (strict Islamic code of behavior and punishment as outlined in the Koran) law can be executed.
Item: An Iranian woman who offends her husband, for example by trying to stop his beating of her, and strikes him in the process can have her hand chopped off. It’s recommended that she repent after the mutilation . . . you think?
This hideous regime being nominated to any position of power or influence is utter infamy. The American delegation could have stopped the move in its tracks by merely raising an objection. Rajjpuut suggests that here, if ever there was one, is an opportunity to rail against the regime’s track record on women’s rights. Not a peep. So beginning in 2011, Iran will start help setting policy for women’s treatment around the world. NICE!!! Nice job, Mr. Obama!
Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Dear Mr. Rose,
When you next have the chance to interview the president of Iran would you please ask him a few more questions?
Since he, the Iranian President Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, seemed to be obsessed with one country or a few major world powers controlling and leading the direction of the IEA investigative reporting discretion. Could you please ask the question, in your own words, in your very cordial manner?
Q1?
Why, Mr. President Ahmadinejad, since you are the only country seemingly not to be in concordance with the IEA oversight terms --- why would you, as only one country, insist that the entire world follow your rules and terms of engagement in nuclear oversight and non-proliferation? (Sorry, Q1.5) Why would you think that you are correct when you are the only country standing in indifference?
Q2?
Mr. President Ahmadinejad, do you believe that I an American could move to you country and live in peace, in peace with the security of a job as you spoke of your country men do, in peace within your Iranian education system, in peace with safety and protection on the streets as you said your country’s children can do so in your neighborhoods, in peace in an Iranian home relatively un-harassed with freedom to live and pray to my God whether that God be Christian, Muslim or Buddhist?
If, Mr. President, I would offer to do so, live in Iran and document my living and well being as thousands of your country men have been able to live here, in the United States, in as much peace as I do. I know that these many Iranians, many my friends from high school to college to retirement have been able to do so, live well --- live free --- live happy --- raise comfortable families in the United States of America. (Sorry, Q2.5555) Why Mr. President Ahmadinejad, do you think your citizens came to the United States for education, more so why do you think your countrymen fled your prescience, why do you think these families decided to stay in the United States?
I also know that President Ahmadinejad does not feel of these freedoms and democracy, does not want free individual rights for his country men and women, would never, until death, give up his single minded dictatorship. Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, will never see lights in liberty and will always run in circles of oppressing darkness. We, US Citizens, in turn will always see the lights of liberty, regardless of the current political party in power, will talk and talk and talk until the small minded dictator, as yourself Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, crosses the line --- then we will stop the talk and then we will walk the walk of freedom and we will fight the fight for individual rights.

OOOOPS . . . . Nova was a complete bust. After that, the Japanese totally dominated the new car market south of the Rio Grande. Indeed, it was much worse than a bust, it was the laughing stock of Latin America. Why? Consider this, if the Japanese instead of Toyota and Honda had tried to sell Americans a car called “Doesnotgo” would you buy it? Any first year Spanish student in high school should know that “No va” means exactly that, “Won’t run.” That was a costly mistake, one of many that GM made that brought them to their present situation, a mistake built upon gross ignorance. So now our ignorance of Muslim culture may very soon leave us oil-less. NICE!
Rajjpuut
From ‘c’ to shining ‘c’, who is our Commander in C?
To many Americans, it now seems the president of the United States has become the enemy. To our more established enemies in Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran, however, it must surely seem that he has become a willing ally. Typing in “Barack Obama” on Yahoo.com, Rajjpuut received 418 million hits. Typing in “Barak Obama” without the ‘c’, after eliminating the Yahoo suggestion (“Did you mean 'Barack Obama'?”) only 13 million 700 thousand hits occurred.
