Editorial - How do we stop ISIL OR ISIS? You eradicate the threat with force - brutal force - fighting fire with fire -
If you ask me if I trust the UN to handle the ISIL / ISIS problem I will scoff, laugh and tell you they are impotent cowards.
The only way to defeat ISIS and ISIL is to cut off the head of the snake -
1. Take away their wealth by disabling their oil refineries and trucking convoys -
2. Take away their equipment by bombing their fleet and then
3. Take a multi nation task force and sweep Iraq from East to West South to North and NOT stop at Syria but sweep inside Syria to take them out of their sanctuary and hiding places.
That's how you do it if you want it done right........... the question is does the American President have the courage to do this?

Asking one question America?
Been keeping quiet on many things and not wanting to muddy the water any more than it already is. Murky to say the least I fear two things:
1. the government and its agents have all the sophisticated war military like equipment they need to control crowds and riots.
2. the government and its agents have done their best to strip Second Amendment rights where they can and limit access to specific ammunition by buying it up.
One has to ask one question? Is it for terrorist control or is it for controlling Americans sick of the way government handles everything? Just thinking out loud who the real enemy is inside America? I am sure this will draw fire from somewhere as its not of a popular approach but rather a caustic pessimistic one.
Judging Others
Judging Others
Whether we admit it or not, we as a society in a whole, tend
to judge others who may seem different or less acceptable in the manners
demonstrated or expressed by ourselves. In other words, when you don’t live up
to society’s expectations, you will be judged not based on heart or humility
but by the harshness of perception and not knowing what is in your heart. This
is so wrong.
This seems to be a foolish approach but it happens every day
in our world. We tend to extract what we like and condemn or dislike what we
disagree with in either a political or personal sense. Not once do we bother to
ask them what is in their hearts. Thus we refuse to tread lightly and push our sentimental
judgment one way or another based on biased thoughts and personal morality
codes that are flawed at best for no man is perfect.
Do we really care what others think of us? Apparently many
do as they are hurt or even offended by societal words, thoughts or deeds. Rarely
do we condemn ourselves first before we cast the first stone. Rarely do we take
into consideration our own flaws and cast the evil spell their way for committing
such immoral deeds or words. Judging others requires judging ourselves first
and instill those values that are in good spirits rather than in harshness and
less than wholesome in content or acts.
This makes us accountable to ourselves first and without
this self-assessment whatever society may throw the other way is inexcusable in
nature and spirit. It is not society’s role to cast stones and judge others.
That was left up to God and only God will deal with such immorality or
wickedness in His own ways.
So stay away from judging others. Keep your heart true to
yourself and treasure the moments of creating and feeling the goodness inside
of you. This will commit you to do no harm to others merely on the spirit
within you and help you bring harmony and compassion around you. You will be
blessed and receive revelations of the good things in life rather than the
negative and ugly wrath such condemnation brings into your heart or mind.
Reaching out for goodness will bring you blessings. Reaching
out for compassion will bring you treasures and reaching out for understanding
will bring you less suffering around you and your family. Work within your own
salvation. Work according to your beliefs and good deeds. Do not fear to be
different when you follow your moral compass and remember that that whatever
you do unto others should be what you want done to you.

Loyalty to Oneself
There have been many articles written about loyalty and most of them are about commitment to an organization or the organizational leadership. Much can be said about those principles and being completely honest, many have their own merits in the manner loyalty is applied to such conditions of employment. The same word can and should be applied to yourself.
Loyalty can be personal, professional or geographically to a place, location, city or country. The application can be applied to a vast number of things but it always begins at home with yourself. You may love your job, love your workplace or the city where you live and that is reasonable.
However, when it comes to being loyal to yourself it seems you sacrifice for others before you give yourself what you earned, deserve or worked for. This is something that needs to be addressed in order for you to feel complete about who you are and what purpose you have in life.
All your life you have sought self-improvements that would enhance your skills in communication, occupation and used them to receive a check for the services rendered and earned. Basically speaking, it was your trained skills that got you the job and ability to earn that check. Additionally, it was the control you took over your own life, your desires and needs to become a better person that allowed you the opportunities that have been laid out there before you.
During that time you chose different reasons for doing what you needed to do to become a better person. In time you became a confident and competent person in those areas you chose to be interested in and worked hard, even sacrificed, to get what you wanted. Such dedication and commitment should be noted and deserve special recognition of who you are and what you can do.
The value of your own success depends largely on how you feel about yourself. Your confidence is built on who you are, where you have been and how well you did when challenged with difficult decisions in your life. Recognizing you made personal sacrifices is important as those were major issues to consider during your decision making process and should be acknowledged in your value of yourself.
