And it begins

I posted a week or so ago on this escalation in tension between the US and Pakistan.

For those not in the know, our administration has given the green light to our special forces to cross into Pakistan to hunt down Al Qeada operatives hiding in the remote mountains. And Pakistan has pushed back stating that any US military personel illegally entering Pakistan will be fired upon by the Pakistani military.

I stated then and i stand by it now, that we do not have the right to enter and run military operatives in a country we are not at war. We MUST have that countries blessing to run raid on their soil.

Well the US military has pushed the Pakistani's on this. There are reports that the Pakistani military fired upon US military aircraft inside Pakistans air space. Once they were fired upon, the aircraft turn and headed back to Afghanistan.

Now i place complete blame on our administration for this. I don't blame any of our military for this, they are following the orders given to them by, guess who, the administration.

It is blatant actions like this that have given the reputation of elite imperialists hell bent on expanding our borders at all cost. This is not the truth, but this is the impression that other countries get of us.

It is time to stop acting like the world is our playground, and that we can all that we want regardless of others soveriegnty.

We must stand up against this before we find ourselves paying for another unneeded war.

Viva Liberty!
