Trump Cost American Lives

Let’s look at the key players. Chad is a country that borders Niger and is 53.1 percent Muslim with Catholics being the second most religious group.

Chad

Niger is a country the borders Chad and Mali and 80-94 percent of the population is Muslim.

Niger

Mali is a country that borders Niger and is 98 percent Muslim.

Mali

The situation is calm, unlike most other situations as the United States elite military personnel teams up with the Nigerian military, along with Chad, to help combat Islamic extremist in Mali.  There are more African countries joining the Coalition to combat Muslim extremist.  And now… the trouble begins.

Trump puts a travel ban on Chad, a Muslim country.  Really!  I guess Trump forgot we are getting help from Chad and other Muslim countries in the region against Mali.  There are American citizens who are from Chad as well as other countries that are helping the United States military in the region.  It astonishes me that the Census Bureau defines white people as having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa.  This mean people from Libya are considered white even though they are African.  This also mean people from Israel are considered white even though they are from the Middle East.  To go further, Iraqis and Iranian people are considered white by the Census Bureau even though they are considered Middle Eastern countries.  Also, this would mean Iraq would be considered white as Iraq is located in the Middle East  Funny how society say who is considered white and who are not.  As I looked upon the list of banned countries, I see people who are considered black, yellow, or brown are on the list and I meant no disrespect on that statement.  There are not any white Muslim countries listed on the banned countries such as Kosovo or Albania.  If this is really the true situation then no country should be on the travel ban because every country on earth is not one hundred percent Muslim.  Even Iraq has a percentage of Christian people within their country.

banned

Trump wants the help and the backing of Chad, but don’t want any of its citizens visiting America because of paper issue(s).  Wrap this around your head for a moment.  You want the backing of a country to help protect your troops, but you put a ban on the same country that is supporting and helping you.  Do you believe they will continue to help you or do you believe they would pull out or worse?  This is why I believe Trump cost American lives.  The lives of the Americans could have been saved if he did not put the ban on Chad.  As a former military service member, I feel sorry for the families affected by the actions of someone who decides to ban its citizens from coming to America.  I feel hurt and sadden by the fact that the lives could have been saved.  They say we have freedom in this country.  Look around you.  Do we really have freedom in this country?

Hunting?

Before anyone judge this post, please read its entirety.

I have seen this news on my yahoo page and I thought…my what a good post to do.  I cannot say I gloat on any one person’s death or mishap, but when I read this, I was giving a notch for God’s creatures.  The link to the story can be seen at the bottom of my posting.

First, I am pro and anti-hunting.  How can I be both you may wonder?  I am glad you asked.  Ultimately, I am against hunting except in extreme circumstances.  This circumstance would be in the event we had no food source or I was faced in a situation like the movie “Book of Eli,” I can see hunting to obtain this flesh to keep living.  If anyone has seen Book of Eli, you would know, but if not, I really encourage others to see it.  It is a very good and powerful movie stars Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, and Jennifer Beals.

I am against hunting because God did not put animals on earth for us to eat, originally.  I cannot see how a person can shoot and harm an innocent deer or other animals that don’t even attack humans.  In the Bible, the Book of Leviticus gives us laws of what we can and cannot eat.  I try to live by that law, but we are not perfect.  True, we live by Grace and Mercy, but as we remember, Jesus did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it.

Isn’t it funny how mean “man” is?  Man, meaning all mankind, not just a man specifically.  Even though I know Godzilla and King Kong are fake movies, I still feel the hurt. As I did a post on my prayer towards animal abusers, I can only hope that one day those that do such things will be dealt with accordingly.

Here, we have King Kong, a gorilla that is taken out of its habitat to be transported in America to be shown as the biggest gorilla in the world.  Not treated with respect and abused, King Kong escapes, even though a woman is involved, and now is hunted by America to destroy.  Why – because of man and their greed for money.  Because of man and their greed for taking something that does not belong to them, especially another life.  King Kong, an animal that only lives on instinct as other animals do, yet destroyed by man because he was acting like he was created to do…. being an animal.  If man would have left him in his habitat, King Kong would not have been destroyed by man.

Here, we have Godzilla, a monster that is a metaphor to nuclear weapons – created by Japanese.  The Orient is bent on destroying Godzilla because they cannot control him, a monster that they had created.  Again, greed of all humanity where others suffer brutal death or destruction that either man has created or what God has created because they (mankind) cannot destroy them.

I weep for the innocent!!!
