What? Really? I thought it was the UN and it's corrupt forum of globalists and 3rd world dictators that decided when American kids would die in foreign deserts...for nothing. But I think this Madison guy might be on to something here...RESTORE THE REPUBLIC.

If anyone can remember the Korean War in the early 50's. It wasn't really a war, it was called a police action. The boys who were killed and maimed in this "police action" probably thought it was a war. And whwt on earth are we doing in Afganistan? Over 2000 troops killed over there trying to civilize a bunch backward people stuck in the 7th century.

    to say nothing of the huge number of innocents that have been killed...it is staggering, but is it by design? Is it to decrease the population and empower the UN? One must consider that....as our own country is destroyed...and why is that? http://youtu.be/sLPfxDV2WM8 Rosa Koire on Agenda 21 and ICLEI (there are other speakers, but she is good at explaining it...)

    AND ! ! ! with the original understanding that all police departments are a standing army to enforce a foreign despots demands, all foreign policing actions and / or pre- ? ? ? strikes are contrary to a free people as understood by original intent.

    As jim so accurately stated above, the "executive" policing action in Korea was acted out under an illicit façade of an unconstitutional / occupying statist theocracy that infests our land. That same illicit facade is an illustrative exercise in the local standing army that is at war against individual sovereigns, inalienable rights and liberty at "the laws of nature and of nature's God" (Declaration of Independence).

    Leaving us desperate to find someone in the world with brains enough to put a halt to this insanity.  Sanity survives by a declaration of reasonable cooperation though productive negotiation.
