FH2007VE--Lobster Salad
By 449 Quentin
Islam has been waging war on the west for over a thousand years. Until now the Jhihadists have been somewhat constrained by our technical prowess on the field of battle. Over that time Rome was eclipsed and replaced by France, England and Germany. Now that their empires are gone the United States is the power that props up Western Civilization. Unfortunately for us the military equation is in the process of changing. Islam is about to possess nuclear weapons and in addition it has learned to confront us with terror tactics rather than conventional military forces. After the first attack on American soil by a foreign power since the war of 1812 George Bush underestimated the enemy and as of this writing is well along the road to disaster. His Democratic opponents show no stomach for fighting anybody but Mr. Bush. Their response to attacks on embassies and naval vessels as well as 3,000 dead in our major city is to talk with the enemy. In addition despite Homers effort to enlighten us we are letting an infinite number of Trojan horses into cities all over the west. That being said it is interesting to see how both sides are gearing up for the titanic clash that is fast approaching. The headline in the New York Times On Monday May 28 is instructive. It reads “Militants Widen Reach As Terror Seeps Out Of Iraq”. They go on to say that a start of a trend is seen and that new plots in the region will use tactics honed in Iraq. In addition Radical Islam using Palestinian camps in Lebanon as a base are attempting to overthrow that government and put Iran and Syria fully in charge in that country. Photo’s in the news this week show Al Qaeda terrorists putting automatic weapons into the hands of children in Lebanon‘s Palestinian refugee camps. Major General Achraf Rifi director of Internal Security in Lebanon is quoted by the Times as saying, “if any country says that it is safe from this, they are putting their heads in the sand“.
To put all of this into perspective this is being printed in the New York Times an organization that proudly proclaims that if an enemy invaded New England the rest of the United States should follow a course of diplomacy and fore go a military response. The fact that they are raising the alarm shows how dire the threat is. That being the case it would be interesting to see the response in the West. What are the politicians and the citizenry up to on this Memorial Day weekend. Are Militias being raised? Are the powers that be gearing up for guns instead of butter? Is anybody digging trenches or setting up tank traps along the New Jersey Turnpike. Are there any plans to teach the history of warfare at our major universities as opposed to continuing to bash all things military. In addition just who are the real powers that run America and what are they up to. Well don’t look at the politicians, they’re mostly lawyers. They don’t run anything, lawyers are mere hirelings. Clerks. Page three in the New York Post is somewhat instructive about who really pulls the levers of power in American. Writer Frank Eltman informs us that if you really want to know how people in the Hampton's are doing, go down to the local gourmet shop and check out the price of lobster salad. The price is according to Mr. Eltman $100 a pound. Now we can rest assured that the families of soldiers serving in Iraq are not out in the Hampton’s forking over a hundred bucks for a bit of salad. You see if your spending that much on lobster salad what’s $15 million for a home? We also learn that a financier named Ron Baron paid $100 million for a forty acre parcel of land in the area. That’s land not a home, we are talking about dirt. All of this is going on with the hedge fund/ mergers and acquisitions crowd. These are the guys and gals that do stuff that the rest of us in our ignorance do not even understand. The little guys from coast to coast who struggle with the car payments and wonder how they are going to send the kids to college. They don’t do hedge funds and they don’t dabble in mergers and acquisitions. Now don’t get me wrong I am not for communism. It didn’t work, there was all that messy stuff with forced labor camps and empty supermarket shelves so I am not going there. But we are living in a time of capitalism running amok .Page three in the Post also has a little article by Sharri Markson about Peter Beard the renowned wildlife photographer. It seems Pete recently threw a little party for 350 of his closest friends. Everybody who was anybody in The Hamptons was there including some barely clad nymphs form the Box nightclub. At 3 A.M. the party moved to the Pink Elephant nightclub where it was observed that Pete had at least two of the Box girls all over him. Somebody should have handed Pete the old Nikon because it looked like the Wildlife was as real as it gets.
Also on page three we are included in a conversation with one Sean Mckenna who told the New York Post that only Beautiful people would be allowed at the Star Room ,the Wainscott night spot where he is general manager.” We are looking for a better looking crowd and the New York big wigs“, he said. “We will have the prettiest waitresses”, he continued,” they’re models and actresses“.
After all nothing but the best for the Merger/Hedge fund guys that run the country. They are the lawyers cash cows. The guys the Democratic and Republican candidates for president must kiss up to and obey. So that’s the update Mr. And Mrs. America and all the ships at sea. That is what is going on in the country that will leave the borders open until you are reduced to serfdom. Our glorious leaders will indulge themselves in the Hamptons and other gated playgrounds, giving parties that you are not invited to. That is how they are preparing for a war between civilizations. That is what they are doing while our enemies are teaching their children how to hold and shoot a Kalishnikov automatic assault rifle. Would anyone care for some lobster salad?
