Obama to address nation Tuesday about Syria

Taking his case to the people of the United States, President Barack Obama will address the nation Tuesday night to make his case for a military strike on Syria.

The Hill reported on Friday:

The president announced his intention during a press conference Friday at the G-20 summit in St. Petersburg, Russia, where he warned that "the Assad regime's brazen use of chemical weapons isn't just a Syrian tragedy."

Obama's decision to address the country from the Oval Office underscores concerns that the administration is losing ground in its bid to secure congressional approval for a vote.

According to The Hill's Whip List, 100 House members are now "no" votes or are leaning against military authorization.

Seventy-two of them are Republicans and 28 are Democrats. Only 31 House members — 10 Republicans and 21 Democrats — are "yes" votes or are "leaning yes."

Yes, Iraq harbored terrorists, had WMDs, and was directly involved in 9/11

Don Bordenkircher spent two years in Iraq as national director of prison and jail operations. In this hard-hitting, straight-forward op-ed, he confirms that terrorists were, indeed, in Iraq prior to 9/11/01, there were weapons of mass destruction, and Iran is intentionally a player in terrorism attacks in Iraq.

He begins by debunking the Democrat claim that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11:

All known terrorist groups were in Iraq before the United States invaded to liberate the Iraqi people. They were harbored, trained and paid for by terrorist operations worldwide. Members of these groups told me this and I believe them.

He reinforces that the enemy is radical Muslims:

Our enemy is the radical fundamentalist arm of the worldwide nation of Islam. They use many names but embrace the same mission. Their mission is worldwide domination by fundamentalist Islam. They will destroy or kill anyone who does not convert to their Islam. They enjoy most destroying Muslims who do not share their vision for world domination.

He reconfirms there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq:

There were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The warheads were shipped to Syria and hidden in the Bekka Valley. The majority of casings are buried somewhere in the thousand miles of desert in Iraq.

He exposes the mainstream media myth there is "civil war" in Iraq:

There is not a civil war occurring in Iraq. There has always been sectarian distrust and acts of violence between Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds. Iran currently arms, trains, advises and monetarily supports both the Sunnis and Shiites, as well as foreign terrorists in Iraq.

He confirms that neighboring Iran is meddling in Iraq:

The mission of Iran in Iraq is to destabilize the country and, when America leaves, assume control without firing a shot.
