More on the ISIS endgame

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/11/15/world/europe/strategy-shift-for-isis-inflicting-terror-in-distant-lands.html?_r=0

After reading this article, it was a no brainer for me to share and comment on it. Yes I'm convinced that the ISIS endgame is underway by this radical shift in their strategy when it comes to carrying out attacks in Europe and Africa. As I mentioned in my previous post, I discussed the attacks against Russia, Beirut and Paris as the first storm.  This article coulpled with my take on the first storm and my theory about al-Qaeda/ISIS/al-Shabaab being one and the same continues to prove that they are trying to confuse us in every way possible.

     We must not fall for this tactic while we must be on guard for any efforts to attack us by the al-Qaeda/ISIS/al-Shabaab enemy. This is why this may not be the last of the strategy shifts after all.

ISIS beginning to take their plans to the next level

When I read the article in The New York Times which said "ISIS calls bloodshed 'First of the Storm'" the impression that I got was that the downing of the Russian Airliner over Egypt, the attacks in Beirut and Friday night's attacks in Paris have become the opening paragraphs in the newest chapter in ISIS' playbook to establish a global caliphate. This falls in line with the multi-phase plan for Radical Islam to wage war with the West. It looks like the last phase of the radical Islamic plan to take over the west and establish a global caliphate may have begun only a few months earlier than they had planned.

     This last phase of the plan calls for the final battle with the west. This phase is scheduled to take place from 2016-2020. The other phases have taking place as planned within the scheduled time frames for each phase to have begun and then completed by. To me this indicates that the ISIS endgame is now underway. They will not stop until the ISIS Caliphate encompasses the entire world that will go from Dar es Jihad aka World of War to Dar es Salaam aka World of Peace.

     This yet leads to reintroducing another theory that I shared a while back. It was one orginiated by CNN's Faheed Zakaria that claimed al-Qaeda, ISIS and al-Shabaab as well as the other al-Qaeda-esque groups are one and the same. They followed an order by Osama bin Laden to play psychological warfare with us. This was done to confuse us. Well some of us are no longer falling for that trick. Count me among those who will no longer be played like a game of chess. Yes I'm quoting a verse from The Fugees on this very Sunday morning. That multi-phase plan for the global jihad that they have been waging against us was first discovered when al-Qaeda terrorists were busted and this was found on the laptops that were confiscated. Now ISIS/al-Qaeda is executing the last phase of this plan. They must be stopped as once.

The scene that I wrote of Off the Grid, Under the Radar that I wrote on November 2, 2015

Here is an excerpt from Off the Grid, Under the Radar that has now become prophetic in real life. May I take the time to let everyone know that I wrote this scene on November 2 of this year as part of my National Novel Writer's Month project. I have never shown this to anyone until now. I would like to take a moment to pray for the victim's of tonight's attack in Paris. I urge everyone else to do the same.

Scene from the current novel Off the Grid, Under the Radar that Ihave yet to finish turns into a real life news event within the past half hour

Paris shootings: Casualties in city centre and explosion at Stade de France - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34814203

A scene from Off the Grid, Under the Radar where a series of shootings and explosions take place in Europe, North America, Israel and Australia has just went down in real life in Paris. What strikes me about this is that one of the cities that this happened in Off the Grid, Under the radar occured in Paris. Now rhe real life incident in Paris that I just found out about moments ago has left me shaken up.

     This now marks that third time that I have either written or published a novel in which a scene or scenes became prophectic in real life. The other two novels in which this occurred wad Black Friday where I wrote about a terrorist attack at a mall became real when the Westgate Mall in Kenya was attacked while I was editing Black Friday almost two weeks before it was published. In Deception, I wrote about many Middle Easterners immigrating to the United States as part of a plot to turn the United States and other European nations into Islamic States under the fictional Mecca Caliphate. In another fact regarding Deception, I wrote about the fictional Mecca caliphate in the months leading up to the offical arrival of ISIS to the world scene. While Deception was being edited, ISIS was declared a caliphate.
     These factors alone have made question whether I have a knack for events in my novels becoming real life events like the ones that Tom Clancy and Joel C. Rosenberg have written about.

If so then this is a sure sign of disaster...

http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Politics-And-Diplomacy/WATCH-LIVE-UN-chief-Ban-Ki-moon-meets-Netanyahu-during-snap-visit-to-Israel-427525

Mahmoud Abbas joins Hamas and ISIS?!?!? Well if this is true about joining ISIS, then things could get very bad very quick. The recent stabbings throughout Israel indicate a bold turn by the Palestinians to escalate their war agaisnt Israel. Yet it could be a sign of what is to come. Today Israel, tomorrow the United States. The stabbings in Israel could very well be a practice run for such incidents in the United States quite possibly in the very near future. Can anyone imagine the fear and paranoia that will engulf the USA should US citizens get stabbed en masse especially during rush hour and during a night out on the town? This wouldn't be the first time that another country was the site of a practice run when it came to terrorism that was ultimately carried out in the Unites States. In December 1999 terrorists carried box cutters and hijacked a plane that was leaving India. The hijackers used one of  the said box cutters to execute a hostage on the plane.

The 2.5% Rule...What a Stupid Criteria for Debate Eligibility...

   What ever happened to each candidate having an equal voice in their quest for elected office?  Well according to the GOP, having less than 2.5% of popular support disqualifies a candidate from participating in the next GOP presidential debate.  I know that there is an effort by the GOP to reduce the field of candidates from fifteen to a select few. Not for anything, but there are twenty names beibg floated for Speaker of the House. Well what do you expect from a party that had as many as 17 declared presidential candidates for crying out loud.  More on that later. 

     Has anyone forgotten to allow the process of Democracy to play itself out? I mean look at the Democrats more or less pushing John "The Annointed" Kerry adter his Iowa win in 2004. There were other viable candidates such as Retired General Wesley Clark (I thought he would've made an outstanding president by the way) who were drowned out that year.  What happenes if Trump suddenly takes a dive in the polls and no other viable candidate is able to prove themselves to be the nominee due to the GOP forcing candidates out of the race? This would give watered-down a completely new meaning.  What if Trump slips and there is no further reduction in the number of candidates? Someone can step up and prove themselves. Just throwing it out there.

As for the Speaker of the House debacle that I briefly touched off on earlier. Twenty candidates does not show variety, it shows further indecisiveness when it comes to the direction of a politcal party. Vetting the viability of a candidate? How about letting the voting process to play itself out. This coming from a political party who in the 2000 presidential election tampered with votes in Florida and God knows how many other states. Um George Clooney you can use this as a premise for Ocean's Fourteen.  You know graduate from robbing to tampering votes. What a sad commentary when it comes to the direction that Democracy is heading in. What happened to allowing every candidate to make their case for you vote...what ever happened to allowing every vote to count? I'm just the son of a Korean War Veteran...My dad fought in Korea to allow Democracy to continue on in the USA. He fought so we can be free and that I have the right to ask these questions without the threat of being jailed or executed.

Could these weapons fall into the wrong hands? Mistakes of previous administrations revisited?

http://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/With-Obamas-new-plan-for-Syrian-rebels-new-worries-427566

President Obama's decision to send weapons to Syrian rebels indicates the effort to fight ISIS is becoming more aggressive. However it could backfire and evoke memories of similar mistakes by previous administrations in recent decades. First and foremost the decision to arm the Afghan citizens and foreign fighters who came to Afghanistan to fight the Soviet invasion. Well those weapons fell into the hands of foreign fighters who later became known as al-Qaeda. We even trained them before they turned against us.

Lest we forget the other colossal mistakes of the so-called iconic Reagan administration. Bad enough we chose to arm Iraq to fight Iran during the Iran-Iraq War drom 1980-1988 due to the fact that Iran was holding 52 Americans hostage, but Iraq used these weapons to invade Kuwait that resulted in Operation Desert Storm, but also influenced the rise of al-Qaeda. Then we ship arms to Iran to free American and other Western Hostages held by the Iranian backed Hezbollah. To all insult to injury, Hezbollah proceeded to replenish their supply of Western hostages in order to get more arms. We all know that Iran-Contra was a result of this ineptitude and hypocritical conduct of the Reagan Administration. This after Ronald Reagan said that the US does not negotiate with terrorists. That said if there was ever a textbook case for impeaching a president this was the case. However there were too many gutless cowards who played the "US is not ready for another round of impeachments this sok after Watergate" card. Well they called for the impeachment of President Clinton for using his PhD on Monica Lewinsky. For thsoe who do not what I mean by PhD, it's called Pimpin' Honeys Degree.

Now on to the next one...aka act of presidential incompetence. This honor goes to none other then George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush. The Elder Bush for failing to topple Saddam after his invasion of Kuwait not to mention his role in Iran-Contra. The Little Bush for arming the Iraqi insurgents who later evolved into ISIS over time. I will refrain from discussing the Bush family's other incidents at this time,  but as a hint the dual offenses took place from  November 2000 through September 2001.

With all this history that I have discussed, I have no question that the arming of Syrian rebels will prove to be another epic disaster especially if they fall into the hands of ISIS. I shudder to say this but it's not if but when given the recent track record.
