  1. Resolved to ask Obama why we fought the war in Afghanistan and Iraq for these two reasons: (1) To surround Iran with U.S. troops (2) To weaken and destroy any country whose government opposed Israel’s foreign policy. Reason #2 is why we (CIA) instigated the “revolutions” in both Syria and Libya. The revolution in Egypt—the so-called Arab Spring—-was an unintended consequence that resulted from the pro-Israel policy the U.S. followed in the Middle East. That mistake needed to be corrected. It was with a military coup that removed a democratically elected president and reestablished Egypt’s longstanding military dictatorship. A military dictatorship that has always been pro-Israel, pro-Sunni, anti-Shiite, and anti-Iran.

  2. I resolved and declared my resolution before Christmas: I WILL rescue my house from the horror left by my insurance company. I WILL have at least three rooms of normalcy: kitchen, living/dining room, bedroom…and the laundry area. So, OK, actually fourish rooms.

    It may not be perfect, it may not be as well done as when I had money and more energy, but it will be livable.

    This I declare. I WILL do it.
