Lets say, first of all, failed state maybe yes, but look at northern iraq. The kurdish areas are prosperous. This is not only about iraq. It is not primarily about iraq. It is about al qaeda and this al qaeda in the islamic levant in iraq. And thats our real enemy. So what should we do . Yes, there is a sectarian dimension to it. But when you say sectarian, people sensibly say lets stay out of it. When you say al qaeda, they wake up and say, yes, there is a problem. The second thing i would say is we need to look for friends everywhere. We still have a few left. An awful lot of people do not believe in us, our friends and enemies. But we should be looking for them. And i would say start in syria. Sunnis in syria are the most actively fighting this isis organization. So on those insurgents in syria, that is what you would do. At least arm them. We may have reached a point where we need to do more. Would you send American Forces . I hope we do not have to. But you would not take that off

Thats the way people get to have a book. Its a very supported art in st. Paul i would say, and in minneapolis. Very respected and supported. I didnt start writing until i was 40. It was like your accident. I think both poets dont decide, i suppose some do, dont decide when their little kid, i will be a poet. Ive been keeping a journal when i was raising a family. I decided i would go to the loft which is our Literary Center and take a class about how to write a novel our how to put all the stuff in the book.

We know the Malaysian Airline was shot down with a surfacetoair missile. Russia has a lot of covert personnel. Wouldnt the russians have to know about it . You have just stated the obvious that the surfacetoair missile had to come from russia. The Training Provided to operate the surfacetoair Missile System most likely came from russia. Whether that russia knew specifically about this incident or not, i dont know. The International Investigation that the United Nations responded to our call for on friday with a resolution that was passed and the russians voted for it, we will find out. We will track this all the way back. If the russians were complicit, john mccain said there should be hell to pay. What would that be . They will come out the losers but we should wait for the facts. The russians have been instigating this trouble in Eastern Ukraine for months. They have been encouraging the separatists, providing the separatists with sophisticated military equipment. They probably have
