Okay. Listen. The Drums of War are banging once again. As bloggers hard on the trail of Truth we’re entering a phase where we can’t tiptoe around things for Fear of offending people and still cover the story properly. This is sophisticated political analysis here, folks, so some stuff you’re just gonna have to suck up if you want to go any further into what we here at the SenseChange Center for Positive Change call ‘the MacroPerspective.’ Leaps have to be made here. You want to play it impartial, BiPartisan to the Truth? Okay. Here goes.
Both the United States and Israel have publicly blamed Iran for these ALL IMPORTANT THREE SOLDIERS. Like a simple kidnapping requires some kind of evil mastermind and shitloads of funding. It’s ridiculous. No Nation gives a fig for the life of one, two, a hundred or a thousand of it’s soldiers when the war drum is banging, and if you don’t know that by now or think your very special country just isn’t like that, well, you’re most likely not going to like where I go from here. There’s probably some super ‘American Idol' blogs on this very site you could go and get a whole lot more out of.
Gone yet? Good. Time for the adults to speak on the Big Things. We go by alliances and look at the scene. The sides. Call ‘em Axis or call ‘em Allies or whatever you like but we’re dealing with alliances. All the makings of a Great War, this one.
So stop looking at individual groups like Hezbollah or the Lebanese army or the Israeli soldiers. We’re goin’ macro. Stop looking at Israel, stop looking at Palestine, stop looking at even the good old U.S. of A. We’re going reeeeeeal macro. Somebody else can give you the analysis of all the little groups. We’re gonna talk about the BigDogs. Deal with it or take a hike.
In a scene like this you have to look at alliances. Whole nations intermingled with other whole nations. Here’s the deal: every player in the MidEast has connections to the real big players. Everybody on earth knows Israel and the US are amongst the staunchest allies perhaps EVER, surely nobody would bother questioning that, and as such it’s been made abundantly clear both in the past and RIGHT NOW.
So, for the purpose of MacroAnalysis, we will not speak of Israel or America but rather US-Israel (henceforth dubbed US-I). Now, if you look at the region from this perspective, US-I is on a huge tear. They are in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza and repeatedly rumbling angrily about Iran and Syria. That’s a big chunk of the oil-rich, Middle East, however you choose to paint it. You want to understand the latest MidEast War you have to make this connection or else you’re behind. You’re reacting to the News which never tells anybody about the important stuff until it’s already blatantly obvious to all.
ASIDE: In times of War, when ‘participants’ mention other nations and especially if they are assigning blame, you are being prepared for the NextLevel. This thing is about to ratchet up, folks, make no mistake about that. US-I will attack both Iran and Syria (or defend against the evil regime of old whats-his-nutz, however you want to paint it up. I’m NonPartisan. Don’t care how it gets expressed so long as it gets expressed), make no mistake about that. (July 23, 2K6)
And what of the Other Side?
Iran’s pretty cocky these days. Pretty cocky. No question. They think they got some shit up their sleeve. They take on Israel they're taking on America, plain and simple. They know it. If you want to contest this you know nothing at all of the Mideast. So, what do they have up their sleeve? Anybody? No?!? Hmmmm.
In the MacroAnalysis, how do we tackle the other side of this thing? Of what use is it trying to keep track of all the little groups in the MidEast that are pissed at the US-I Alliance? Can’t. Could take all day. Is there an alliance or some relationship of sorts between Hezbollah and Iran, or Syria? I don’t know these things but we’re gonna make another leap: if there ain’t a relationship yet, THERE WILL BE SOON. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right? One of the oldest maxims of large-scale war, that one.
What do we call an alliance between Syria, Iran, all the little anti US-I groups (terrorists, freedom fighters, whatever, don’t care about the label) as well as whatever other Mideast Nations (both in secret and openly) decide to jump into the fray? Shall we just call it Arabia and be done with it? Done.
US-I versus Arabia.
You there yet? Figure you’re all caught up on the Macro yet? Not quite.
‘Up and Comer’ China is as thirsty for Oil as the good old US of A and has made no bones about making deals with Iran. Oil is LifeBlood. China needs it. Iran has it. They have a relationship. ‘Comeback Kid’ Russia also has strong relationships with Iran and has quite recently demonstrated a military alliance with China (remember that huge series of War games these two Nations recently demonstrated for the world? You don’t? Was ‘Survivor’ on? Ah yes. Of course it was).
Yes sir, all the fixin’s for a Great War, this one does.
You can make your own conclusions on all that, but at least nobody can tell you you weren't exposed to the MacroPerspective.
Heads Down, Citizens, Pecker’s Up!
That is all.

And hot shit, just when you thought it couldn’t get any stranger:
Georgie’s Big Adventure: What the hell’s he doing with the chancellor of freaking Germany? Still struggling to digest Georgie’s grotesquely inappropriate shoulder massage of a fellow G8 leader. That’s a new one Georgie; ‘creepy guy at the party’. Your range amazes me. You guys catch this? Unbelievable. Is this just a frathouse kegger thing to him? Used to pick up broads by rubbing their shoulders. Hey, you and me both Georgie, BUT KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF THE OTHER G8 MEMBERS. Unbelievable. Keeps getting weirder and weirder. Clinton would’ve had the good sense to have picked up a chubby little waitress or something and nailed her in the biffy when nobody was looking. No harm no foul!
“Keep the apron on, babuh, yeah, like that.”
You know, Hunter S Thompsen was repeatedly quoted as saying it never got weird enough for him. I wonder what he'd say about this, now. Christ, what's next for America's Boy Wonder, Georgie 'Dubya' Bush? I’m waiting for him to cut a big, stinky fart or something. Start crying. Who knows? All bets are off.
