The U.N. Census Plan To GPS Map Every Human Dwelling On Earth

Many Americans have been startled to find a U.S. census representative at their door this year using a GPS device to digitally mark the location of their home. The reality is that this is not just an American plan, but rather a newly uncovered United Nations document reveals that it is part of a U.N. scheme to use GPS technology to identify every human dwelling on earth.

The use of GPS to track where you live in not something that the Obama administration came up with. A U.N. document entitled "Integration of GPS, Digital Imagery and GIS with Census Mapping" by the United Nations Statistics Division reveals that the U.N. has a much bigger plan than just GPS mapping all of the homes in the United States and Europe.

The U.N. wants to GPS map every house, hut and hovel in the world.

You can read this disturbing document here:

http://unstats.un.org/unsd/demographic/meetings/egm/CensusEGM04/docs/AC98_14.pdf

In particular, pay attention to pages 4 through 6.

When you think through the implications of all this, it can be pretty mind boggling.

If the United Nations is able to achieve this, then there will be NOWHERE on earth that is "off the grid". You will not be able to "hide" anywhere. Big brother will ALWAYS be able to identify you.

Already in the United States all of this GPS mapping of the front doors of homes is causing some pretty intense confrontations between home owners and census workers. Just check out this YouTube video.....



The facts are that the U.S. government has hired an army of approximately 140,000 census workers in part with a $700 million taxpayer-funded contract to GPS map every single front door in the United States.

Every single front door.

When some home owners have chased them away, the census workers have responded by telling them that someone else will come back again until they get what they need.

Census spokesman Stephen Buckner told this to WorldNetDaily: "We have to verify every single address."

So to everyone who thought that they could go "off the grid" and hide from the government it looks like you were sadly mistaken.

You are going to be part of the Big Brother police state grid whether you like it or not.

And when the government decides it is time to round up troublemakers, they are going to know exactly where you are and a computer will lead them right to your front door.

The potential for abuse of this kind of GPS database is staggering.

Even if you trust that your information will never, ever be abused, the reality that news stories are coming out almost constantly about how the government is watching, tracking, tracing and controlling us like never before in our history should be incredibly disturbing to the vast majority of Americans.

What is it going to take for people to realize that we are heading towards a totalitarian "Big Brother" police state that will make the novel 1984 look like a Sunday picnic?

Gates, Buffett, Winfrey Attend Secret NYC Population Control Summit

On May 5th, Bill Gates, David Rockefeller, Warren Buffett, George Soros, Michael Bloomberg, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey and a number of other "super wealthy" Americans gathered for a secret meeting in Manhattan. Reportedly the goal of the meeting was to consider how their combined wealth could be used to slow the growth of the world’s population.

There was a COMPLETE blackout by the American news media of this clandestine gathering. They reportedly met at the home of Sir Paul Nurse, a British Nobel prize biochemist and the president of Rockefeller University. The secret meeting was supposed to be so discreet that many of the billionaires’ aides were only told they were at "security briefings".

However, some details about this secret meeting have emerged.

According to one major U.K. newspaper, one person who attended the meeting said that "a consensus emerged that they would back a strategy in which population growth would be tackled as a potentially disastrous environmental, social and industrial threat."

The same news article includes some incredibly disturbing quotes about the meeting from that same anonymous source.....

"This is something so nightmarish that everyone in this group agreed it needs big-brain answers."

"They need to be independent of government agencies, which are unable to head off the disaster we all see looming."

In other words, these rich elitists are the ones who will provide the "big-brain" answers that the rest of us morons are not capable of coming up with.

The truth is that this secret meeting is just the latest example of the obsession that the global elite has with population control.

It seems that now there is almost a non-stop propaganda campaign in the western world to promote abortion, sterilization, family size limits, lower birth rates and other even more draconian population control measures.

One of the most recent shocking comments on population control came from the U.K. government's "green guru".

The chair of the U.K. government's Sustainable Development Commission, Jonathon Porritt, said that parents who have more than two children are being “irresponsible” by creating an "unbearable" burden on the environment.

Porritt also says that curbing population growth through abortion and contraception are absolutely necessary in order to fight global warming.

When government officials begin talking of limits on family sizes it is time for alarm bells to start going off.

The truth is that the freedom to marry and reproduce and to raise a family is one of the most cherished and most basic of all human freedoms.

But the global elite have become absolutely obsessed with population control, and their sick obsession is starting to reveal itself in society in a thousand different ways.

For most of human history, the thought of the government or anyone else restricting how many children one could have was absolutely unthinkable.

However, today there are many, particularly in the Western world, who are been convinced by government propaganda to willingly restrict their own reproductive capabilities.

One 27 year old woman named Toni Vernelli told the Daily Mail why she decided to get permanently sterilized: "Every person who is born uses more food, more water, more land, more fossil fuels, more trees and produces more rubbish, more pollution, more greenhouse gases, and adds to the problem of over-population."

Some activists have even gone to the absolute extreme by forming "The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement" which seeks to reduce the presence of humanity on earth as much as possible.

Their motto is: “May we live long and die out”.

Doesn't that sound lovely?

So is the ballooning population of planet earth a huge threat to the environment?

Do we need to implement strict population controls for the good of mankind?

The reality is that the world has more people than it ever has had in all of recorded history. Some countries have implemented population laws that are quite strict (such as China's one child policy), while other nations do not have any mandatory population regulations yet. Lately, however, we have started to see some population control measures begin to pop up in the Western world.....

*Women in the Netherlands who are deemed by the state to be unfit mothers will be sentenced to take contraception for a period of two years, according to a new bill before the Dutch parliament.

*In the U.K., one influential think tank says that it is an "eco-crime" to have too many children and that we really need to examine the impact our large population is having on the earth.

*In South America, the government of Peru goes door to door pressuring women to be sterilized and they are funded by American tax dollars to do this.

Did you know that was what your tax dollars were doing?

The truth is that the desire by the global elite to limit the population of the earth has been around for a long, long time. Between 1798-1826, English economist Thomas Malthus published six editions of his work entitled "Essay on the Principle of Population", which argued that population growth inevitably outstrips food production.

The primary argument advanced by Malthus was that the English working class was poor not because they were exploited, but rather because there were too many of them. Malthus opposed welfare and higher wages because he believed they would allow the poor to survive and breed, thus compounding the overpopulation problem and leading to more poverty. Of course Malthus was terribly wrong about all of this, but nonetheless his theories gained wide acceptance among the English elite of his day.

Many years later, Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, vigorously promoted this type of twisted thinking in the United States. The following is one of Margaret Sanger's most infamous quotes:

"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

Remember, that quote came out of the mouth of the founder of Planned Parenthood.

Unfortunately, the sick theories of Malthus, Sanger and other population control advocates did not die out. Rather, they seemed to gain steam as the population of the world absolutely exploded in the 20th century.

U.S. environmentalist Paul Erlich, in his 1968 book entitled "The Population Bomb", argued for very strict population control measures, especially in the poorer areas of the world. He warned that if we did not implement such measures we would be facing catastrophic problems very quickly.

Dr. Arne Schiotz, World Wildlife Fund Director of Conservation, said this in 1984:

"Malthus has been vindicated, reality is finally catching up with Malthus. The Third World is overpopulated, it’s an economic mess, and there’s no way they could get out of it with this fast-growing population. Our philosophy is: back to the village."

Unfortunately, the philosophies of Erlich, Schiotz and other population control advocates have garnered a substantial following even among powerful members of the United States government. Just check out the following shocking quotes.....

“There is a single theme behind all our work–we must reduce population levels. Either governments do it our way, through nice clean methods, or they will get the kinds of mess that we have in El Salvador, or in Iran or in Beirut. Population is a political problem. Once population is out of control, it requires authoritarian government, even fascism, to reduce it…."

“Our program in El Salvador didn’t work. The infrastructure was not there to support it. There were just too goddamned many people…. To really reduce population, quickly, you have to pull all the males into the fighting and you have to kill significant numbers of fertile age females…."

“The quickest way to reduce population is through famine, like in Africa, or through disease like the Black Death….”


–Thomas Ferguson, State Department Office of Population Affairs

The quotes above are typical of the mindset of the global elite. The call for radical population control has grown louder than ever before. College professors are given standing ovations by their students when they call for a 90 percent reduction in the human population of the planet. Ted Turner said, "A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal," and the global elite applauded him for it. The Georgia Guidestones which call for us to "maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature" are increasingly cited by our leaders as an important, and perhaps even necessary, goal.

What in the world is happening?

How in the world did it become a good idea to get rid of 90 to 95 percent of us?

It seems as though for the global elite, every major crisis these days is an opportunity to further one of the key pillars of their agenda.....

Population reduction.

Problem #1: Gas costs too much and we are faced with "global warming".

Answer: Get rid of a whole bunch of people and we will use less gas and we will produce less "greenhouse gases".

Problem #2: Medical costs are soaring out of control.

Answer: Get rid of a whole bunch of people and kill off the elderly and we will have fewer medical costs.

Now Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, has the perfect solution for the "food crisis":

Get rid of a whole bunch of people......

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article3908588.ece

The following is one of Prince Philip's most famous quotes about world population:

"You cannot keep a bigger flock of sheep than you are capable of feeding. In other words conservation may involve culling in order to keep a balance between the relative numbers in each species within any particular habitat. I realize this is a very touchy subject, but the fact remains that mankind is part of the living world…. Every new acre brought into cultivation means another acre denied to wild species."

Do you realize how the global elite sees us?

They see us as a "flock of sheep" that must be culled from time to time.

How sick is that?

Prince Philip, the "Eco-Warrior", also once said that he would like to come back to earth as a disease after he died to help reduce the human population.

But he is far from alone on this issue. The call for human depopulation is coming from a myriad of other sources:

John Guillebaud, professor of family planning at University College London has said this: “The effect on the planet of having one child less is an order of magnitude greater than all these other things we might do, such as switching off lights. An extra child is the equivalent of a lot of flights across the planet."

He also made this shocking statement: “The greatest thing anyone in Britain could do to help the future of the planet would be to have one less child.”

Now there are influential think tanks in the United Kingdom that are even advocating that the U.K. adopt a "2 child" policy to help fight "global warming".

The infamous Club of Rome certainly is clear about who they think the enemy is.....

"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill…. But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into the trap of mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

–Club of Rome, The First Global Revolution, 1991

Mikhail Gorbachev made the following stunning statement about the population of the earth: "We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage."

The reality is that we are getting increasingly closer to the kind of world where the "useless eaters" that Henry Kissinger talked about will be "eliminated". Is this the kind of future that we want for us and our children?

The truth is that the world is not experiencing runaway population growth. While the earth's population is growing, the rate of growth is definitely slowing. The population of the world grew by 140% between 1950 and 2000. However, authorities predict a rise of only 50% between 2000 and 2050, and a rise of just 11% in the 50 years after that.

The truly frightening thing is that many of you who will read this article actually agree with this radical depopulation agenda.

Many of you actually think it is a good idea to exterminate 90 to 95 percent of us.

Many of you have embraced the radical eugenics philosophy promoted by some of the wickedest men of the 20th century and you don't even realize it.

I challenge anyone who believes in radical population control to post a comment below defending your position.

For the rest of us, we need to understand what the global elite intend to do before the time comes when they actually start doing it to us.

Barack Obama And George W. Bush: Partners In Torture

Now that the first few months of Barack Obama's administration has passed, one thing is becoming exceedingly clear. By covering up the torture of terror suspects under the Bush administration, by choosing not to hold anyone responsible for those crimes, and by continuing many of the same despicable practices, Barack Obama has now become George W. Bush's partner in torture and war crimes.

This is not what a lot of voters were expecting. After all, wasn't it Obama who promised that he would do away with the "military commissions" that denied almost all rights to terror suspects?

Well guess what? Obama has decided to restart those military commissions. The following is what one civil rights attorney had to say about that.....

The proposed changes to the military commissions are merely cosmetic and do not erase the spectacle of the Department of Defense presiding over trials where coerced statements and accusations by unnamed accusers are permitted, and where detainees are not permitted to speak about their torture at the hands of the CIA or the military. Military commissions unfairly deprive detainees of meaningful defense resources. This "due process light" is particularly indefensible in death penalty cases.

Not only that, but President Obama is thinking of going farther than George W. Bush even did. Obama is actually considering a “preventive detention” system that would establish a "legal basis" for the U.S. to incarcerate terrorism suspects indefinitely who are deemed a threat to national security but "cannot be tried".

That means locking someone up, throwing away the key and never, ever giving them a trial.

How American!

This comes on the heels of Obama's announcement that he is going to resist the release of any more torture photos.

Why doesn't Obama want to release more of the torture photos? Maybe because what they may show would completely shock the world.

The truth is that what the American public has been told about Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay is nothing compared to the actual truth.

If you want to read about some of the really disgusting things that American personnel have been doing to their prisoners, then you will want to read this article:

http://signsofthelastdays.com/archives/american-christians-approve-of-torture

But Obama has stopped all of that torture, right?

Well, first of all, by covering it up and by openly refusing to prosecute anyone, Obama has become a party to the crime.

It is a national disgrace how he is trying to sweep this under the rug.

Secondly, Obama talks a good game, but the reality is that there are reports that torture of terror suspects is still going on.

The media is making a big deal out of the fact that Obama is changing some of the techniques and is planning to close Guantanamo Bay, but what about all the other secret prisons the U.S. has around the world?

Is Obama going to close those?

No.

The truth is that Obama is not doing the things that the American people voted him in to do.

If you look at what this administration is doing issue by issue, the reality is that this might as well be the third Bush administration. The media wants us to believe that things have changed, but the truth is that we are still headed on the exact same course.

Shame on Obama and shame on America if we do not demand an end to this torture.

Is Evangelical Christianity Failing Among America's Young Adults?

Are the skeptics right? Is evangelical Christianity failing among America's young people? The newest poll numbers seem to indicate that it is.

Today I came across an article in Advertising Age that blew me away. The article was about marketing and religion, but what impacted me so profoundly were some figures from the American Religious Identification Survey by the Institute for the Study of Secularism in Society & Culture at Trinity College.

According to that survey, 15% of Americans say they have "no religion" which is up from 8% in 1990.

That would be bad enough news for evangelical Christianity.

But in that same survey 46% of Americans between the ages of 18 to 34 indicated that they had no religion.

Forty. Six. Percent.

Now, not all of those are unbelievers. According to a survey by Bohan Advertising/Marketing, the Barna Group and the United Methodist Church, 62 percent of Americans in that age group consider themselves to be "spiritual", and 43 percent of them have prayed in the last 2 months.

What it does mean is that almost half of all Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 do not identify themselves with a particular religion.

When you look at recent poll numbers for Christianity in particular, the numbers become even more sobering.

A stunning new survey by the Barna group reveals that less than 1 percent of all Americans between the ages of 18 and 23 have a Biblical worldview. This new poll data clearly shows that the youngest adults in America have clearly rejected traditional evangelical Christian teaching.

The survey defined having a Biblical worldview as holding the following six beliefs:

1) Believing that absolute moral truth exists.
2) Believing that the Bible is completely accurate in all of the principles it teaches.
3) Believing that Satan is considered to be a real being or force, not merely symbolic.
4) Believing that a person cannot earn their way into Heaven by trying to be good or by doing good works.
5) Believing that Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on earth.
6) Believing that God is the all-knowing, all-powerful creator of the world who still rules the universe today.

So what do these numbers mean?

They show that evangelical Christianity has lost almost an entire generation of American young people.

Meanwhile, the Christian Science Monitor recently wrote about the "coming evangelical collapse" that they believe is coming. They predict that "within two generations, evangelicalism will be a house deserted of half its occupants."

That is frightening.

Almost all Christian denominations are losing members at this point.

The new American Religious Identification Survey shows that most religions in the United States are losing members rapidly. According to the survey, the percentage of Americans who call themselves Christians has dropped more than 11% since 1990. The survey reports that Catholics, Baptists and other mainline Protestants have seen large drops in numbers.

However, Islam, Wicca and eastern religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism showed large gains in the survey.

But more bad news for evangelical Christianity is that those who still call themselves Christians do not necessarily hold to traditional Christian beliefs any longer. Two other recent surveys show that the majority of American Christians believe that accepting Jesus Christ as savior is NOT the only way to eternal life.

USAToday recently reported on an almost unbelievable new survey that found that 52 percent of American Christians believe that eternal life is not exclusively for those who accept Jesus Christ as their savior.

A different survey that was taken last year by the Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion & Public Life found that 57 percent of evangelical Christians in America believe that "many religions can lead to eternal life".

That shocking study revealed what many Christians have known for quite some time - apostasy among "evangelical Christians" is spreading, and it is spreading rapidly.

Evangelical Christians are supposedly those who follow the teachings of the Bible the most literally. But this survey indicates that even a majority of them do not even believe in the most fundamental precepts of the Christians faith.

For example, in John 14:6 Jesus says the following:

"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

If there was another way for our sins to be forgiven, then why did Jesus need to die on the cross? If there were other ways to salvation, then Jesus could have come down to earth, pointed out a bunch of other ways to get to heaven, and then could have gone back up to heaven without having to deal with the cross.

But the reality is that there was no other way for our sins to be paid for.

And yet these new surveys reveal that a majority of American Christians now believe that there are plenty of other ways to get to heaven.

The Pew survey also revealed that 45% of Americans as a whole say they seldom or never read their religion's holy books.

Perhaps if more Americans were reading the Bible then they would know what is truth and what is error. Instead, Americans have surrounded themselves with preachers and self-help coaches and "feel-good" ministers who tell them what they want to hear, who always make them feel comfortable and who never tell them about sin, holiness or the judgment of God.

The current situation in America reminds me of 2 Timothy 4:3.....

For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

The sad reality is that the trends all show that church attendance in America is in decline.

Dave Olson, the director of church planting for the Evangelical Covenant Church, has done some really interesting research into the church attendance patterns of Americans.

Olson's findings contain a ton of bad news. For starters, his research found that the percentage of Americans regularly attending church is only 18.7%.

Olson has put his findings into an eye opening slideshow entitled "Twelve Surprising Facts about the US Church".

Here are some of the things that he found:

The percentage of people who actually physically attend a Christian church each week is quite a bit below what pollsters report.

The percentage of people who attended a Christian church each week decreased significantly between 1990 and 2000.

Only one state, Hawaii, actually saw an increase in the percentage of the population attending church between 1990 and 2000. Every other state in the entire nation saw a decrease in church attendance.

Evangelicals, mainline Protestants, and Catholics are each strong in very different regions of the nation.

If these current trends continue, the percentage of the U.S. population that attends church each week in 2050 will be about half of what it is today.

What all of these numbers mean is that there is a mass exodus from American churches - particularly among young adults.

Some young adults are leaving because they don't believe in Christianity any longer. Others are leaving because they are looking for the real thing and they aren't finding it.

Perhaps everyone should start looking around at their own churches and make a sober assessment of what is really going on there.

Does your church have "the real thing" or are you all just playing religion?

The Singularity: Merging Men And Machines Is Not Just Science Fiction Anymore

Most of us are familiar with science fiction films where men and machines are combined together to produce powerful superhuman creatures.

Unfortunately, it looks like it is not just going to be science fiction for much longer.

The video clip below is a trailer for a film entitled "Transcendent Man".

This film examines the life and ideas of Ray Kurzweil, a world famous futurist who travels the world promoting his vision of a future in which humanity will merge with technology and machines.

Kurzweil believes that by doing so, humans will be able to live forever and will be billions of times more intelligent than we are now.

All within the next thirty years.

Does all of this seem fantastical to you?

The truth is that there are a LOT of scientists out there who believe this, and the number of top intellectuals who believe in this stuff is growing rapidly.

They call this being of the future "the Singularity", and today there are many futurists, philosophers and scientists who are talking about what it will mean to live in a "post-human" society.

Check out the stunning trailer for this film. What you see should chill you to the bone.....

Could Pakistan's Nuclear Weapons End Up In The Hands Of The Taliban?

Could Pakistan's nuclear weapons end up in the hands of the Taliban?  As unlikely as that sounds, the reality is that Pakistan is in chaos tonight.

Thousands of Pakistani citizens are fleeing areas of Pakistan where fighting between the Taliban and government-backed forces is raging, and Pakistani officials now expect that the total number of refugees will number into the hundreds of thousands.

Taliban forces recently came within 60 miles of the Pakistani capital and American leaders are becoming concerned.  General David Petraeus, the head of Central Command, which covers all U.S. forces in the Middle East and south Asia, is now saying that there may be just two weeks left to prevent the Taliban from overthrowing Pakistan’s increasingly fragile government.

Renewed fighting between government forces and extremist forces has left dozens dead in just the past few days.

General Petraeus is now saying that “the Pakistanis have run out of excuses” and that they are going to have to take the militants head on if they want their government to survive.

Even Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is talking tough. Last week she publicly accused the Pakistani government of “abdicating to the Taliban”.

In a recent interview with Fox News, Clinton made this stunning statement: "If the worst, the unthinkable, were to happen, and this advancing Taliban encouraged and supported by al-Qaeda and other extremists were to essentially topple the government for failure to beat them back, then they would have the keys to the nuclear arsenal of Pakistan."

The majority of Americans have totally ignored what is going on in Pakistan, but the situation is becoming quite dire. Just check out the following news report.....



The truth is that there is NO WAY that the U.S. is going to let Pakistan get taken over by radical Islamic forces. Pakistan has a substantial nuclear arsenal, and while the U.S. would be quite hesitant to commit U.S. troops to Pakistan, the reality is that the U.S. government does not believe that they can afford to allow nuclear weapons to fall into the hands of the Taliban.

Previously, President Barack Obama had expressed a willingness to expand the U.S. presence in Pakistan, but he does not seem eager to commit U.S. soldiers there.

Shortly after his administration began, Obama claimed that "the safety of people around the world is at stake" and that it was important for the U.S. to maintain a strong military presence in the region. Obama called the mountainous Pakistani side of the Afghan border "the most dangerous place in the world" and reaffirmed the U.S. view that in order for the war in Afghanistan to be successful, the U.S. military would have to go after al-Qaeda forces in Pakistan.

Obama also said this at the time: "Let me be clear: al-Qaeda and its allies -- the terrorists who planned and supported the 9/11 attacks -- are in Pakistan and Afghanistan."

This came on the heels of the announcement that 4,000 more U.S. troops will be sent to Afghanistan, in addition to the 17,000 increase that had already been announced.

Obama's plan also includes a goal of boosting the Afghan army from 80,000 to 134,000 troops by 2011.

The U.K. is also now offering its full backing for a comprehensive military campaign inside of Pakistan.

In fact, U.K. Defense Secretary John Hutton says that there must now be “an equal focus on both countries”. Current government plans call for the U.K. to send an additional 2,000 British troops to Afghanistan.

Up until now, most people in both the U.S. and the U.K. have mistakenly believed that their governments were only involved in two wars - in Iraq and in Afghanistan. However, the truth is that both governments have been deeply involved in a covert war against Islamic militants inside Pakistan that has been going on for quite some time now.

The reality is that U.S. special forces based in Afghanistan have been carrying out regular missions into Pakistan’s tribal areas since early September 2008. The New York Times even goes so far as to call what was happening as a "covert war run by the Central Intelligence Agency inside Pakistan" - and if even the New York Times is admitting it, then the U.S. government is not even really trying to hide it anymore.

But it is not just U.S. forces that are deeply involved in the covert war inside Pakistan. A stunning report has revealed that British agents colluded in the torture of Pakistani terrorism suspects by the ISI inside Pakistan. Officially the British government is "against torture", but apparently they have no problem letting ISI agents torture the living daylights out of Islamic militants while they watch.

In addition, it has now been revealed that the CIA was covertly using the Shamsi airfield in Pakistan (which is 30 miles INSIDE the Pakistani border) to launch operations against targets within Pakistan.

Wow.

How could the U.S. deny that they were at war inside Pakistan when they are using bases inside Pakistan to launch attacks on Pakistani soil? Well, with the newest announcements by Obama, the U.S. is not even trying to deny it anymore.

The U.S. is at war inside of Pakistan.

However, at the same time the U.S. has expanded their war against Islamic militants, the central government in Pakistan is seeking to appease them.

In a very curious move, the Pakistani government is promising to impose Islamic law and to suspend military operations against extremists in areas known to be havens for terrorist organizations.

Now why in the world would the Pakistani government be doing that?

It seems that the goals of the Pakistani government are directly opposed to the goals of the U.S. and the U.K. at this point.

The truth is that the Pakistani government tried to win over the Islamic militants through appeasement, but that only seemed to embolden them. Pro-Taliban leaders in Pakistan now claim that they want to impose Sharia law on the whole country.

So what will come of all this?

Nobody really knows, but for now it seems as though the situation seems likely to become more volatile in the near future.

Just what the American taxpayers need - another costly war to pay for.

American voters believed that they were going to see less war with Obama in office, but now it seems as though the reality is that we are all going to see a lot more war.

But more war may be unavoidable if the Pakistani government cannot defeat the Taliban.  After all, is there anyone who actually wants to see the Taliban in control of an arsenal of nuclear weapons?
