VI Day!!!!!!! Victory in Iraq!

Mark it on your calendars...and never forget.  Victory in Iraq!!!!

Excerpt from Zombie!!!
___
We won. The Iraq War is over.

I declare November 22, 2008 to be "Victory in Iraq Day." (Hereafter known as "VI Day.")

By every measure, The United States and coalition forces have conclusively defeated all enemies in Iraq, pacified the country, deposed the previous regime, successfully helped to establish a new functioning democratic government, and suppressed any lingering insurgencies. The war has come to an end. And we won.

What more indication do you need? An announcement from the outgoing Bush administration? It's not gonna happen. An announcement from the incoming Obama administration? That's really not gonna happen. A declaration of victory by the media? Please. Don't make me laugh. A concession of surrender by what few remaining insurgents remain in hiding? Forget about it.

Read it all!!!

Sometimes it's really hard to make a decision about something that is absolutely life changing.  There is a comfort in what one currently has.  A familiarity and consistency.  It says alot about how one is leading one's life.  Yet the idea of a challenge seems well..provocative.

What does one do when ones mind is in conflict with one's heart?

There are pros and cons to BOTH courses of action.  How does one weight one's importance?  What is more important stability?   Finances?  Current luxuries?  Or an inner feeling of peace?  Being drawn to the historical and cultural center of civilization?  The feeling of being home and that the feeling of BEING in peace?  Not to mention being able to walk where the ancients walked!

How does one try to resolve a conflict when one's head tells you..dont move..you have a good life. Dont fuck it up.  Yet one's heart clearly says..do it or you will regret that you never tried. Don't second guess the chance you have to do something that your grandfather had the chance...And, that when you do get there....things will line up..you wont be alone and you might find the path that you know is out there for you.  Wherever it takes you.  Also that maybe some of the questions you have about life and my role in it might be answered or at least there would be some clarity.

How does one solve this type of delimma?  What is the right answer?  How does one make this type of choice?  WHAT IS RIGHT and is there a wrong answer?

It seems that the Messiah's new Mid East advisor is a terrorist sympathizer....BIG SHOCKER THERE!!!

Ace has the goods...(in a post called Soros tied Malloy sent as SPECIAL Envoy to Syria and Egypt) and well..the end result is that Israel is fucked.  This guy is in the Mid East now talking to Egypt and Syria.  Two of Israel's most nicest neighbors.  G-d damn...this fucking sucks.

Thank you 52 (the number of states that voted for this jerkoff).  I am sure we will have plenty of messes to clean up once your ass is out of office!

In a few hours is Veterans day.  In my honest opinion one of the most important holidays EVER.  This is a day were we HONOR the living veterans..who defend our country.  This is different but similar than Memorial day in that on that holiday we honor the fallen.  So, if you see a military veteran...shake their hands, thank them for their service..hell buy them a beer.  They put their lives on the line for each of us!  They are all heros and deserve our admiration!

YAY... I am going back to California!!!! With my sister, which is a first!!! LOL

We will be at the San Bernardino HILTON!!! from Dec 4-Dec 7th. 

Major things would be to see our grandmother, show her my souvineers from Israel...catch up on things..and to watch them try to talk me out of the aliyah ROFL...heheheeh...not that they could mind you...LOL  But, this is not something I am keeping from anyone and really everyone sort of gets a voice.  It's good because if there is something I have not thought of then YES I WANT TO HEAR IT.

Hopefully I will get to see my  uncle and Jonathan.  So yay us.

Yeah I found one..but it's in fucking San Fransico.  There really isn't a city I despise more in the US than San Fransico for many many reasons.  To me the city is left of Communist Cuba.  But they have a very good dance station (and I do enjoy them venting about losing the prop 8 battle).  So I put that aside and listen to the good music and it does remind me of the old dance station in Phoenix - at least I can stream this at work.

1 How on earth did you manage to find a new dance station AND blog about it at work. *tut tut*

Posted by: The Girl Across the Hall at November 07, 2008 11:34 AM (V+ylD)

2 UH excuse me...

I FOUND the new dance station over a month ago...but never listened to it because I preferred the LOCAL one....I dislike San Franscisco that if I did not have to listen to it I sure as hell wouldn't.  Though I do find comfort that they are bitching about Prop 8. LOL

Nova Roma - I have talked about it a couple of times in the past...but now LOL it seems to have re-arisen of sorts.  It seems one of my old friends there spread rumors that I was um...dead..or in a coma..or well..whatever LOL.  One of my best friends there, Palladius, caught up with me...and told me.  So, I have declared that I exist.  Not even my office getting shot up was able to kill me....yet!

Well well well We got more pics from Lital on facebook!!!!

Back when we hung out in the Tasha and Dishka chatroom many of our conversations would flow around the following - hoping we would see pics of Lital's family (which we have) and seeing Lital when she was a kid and especially in her military uniform.  2 days ago that wish was GRANTED!!!

Here is pic 1:


Here is pic 2:

Pic 3:

Ok ok, this one is my favorite!!!

To view them all just go to Lital's facebook!   I like the pic of her father..who reminds me of Ryan O'Neal - in one of the pics.

Today I had work, a dr appointment and an aliyah appointment.  It was so interesting and was the first time I went to the Greater Phoenix Jewish Community in Scottsdale.  My appointment was EXCELLENT.  I had alot of questions answered.  Of course new ones were raised, which wa s very normal.  I sort of have how the Aliyah works....from the Jewish Agency and Nefesh B'Nefesh's role.  The way it works is that proving I met the requirements is the responbility of the Jewish Agency.  Once I prove I am Jewish...and eligible for the Aliyah Nefesh B'Nefesh sort of takes over and helps with the move and the subsequent benefits of said move.

I have turned in some paperwork (general application to confirm I am Jewish) and a health questionairre.  What was funny is that he asked who I knew in Israel..so I gave him Lital's, Yair's, Adi's and Noah's name.  He asked how I knew them.  LOL that brought up an interesting conversation.  How I know them?  Also, what brought up interesting conversations was my desire to be in Israel and what changed me from being raised as a Christian with minimal grounding in Judiasm to the current state of mind that I have. 

He was impressed that I had actually visited Israel.  He said there are quite a few people who want to make the aliyah but have never been there. 

Of course he basically repeated my main concerns about going there ie. learning Hebrew, the customs, and getting a job there.  In that regard, no major revelations. BUT, I do have to say I have a much stronger impression with this meeting than I did with the Jewish Agency in Ramat Aviv, Israel. 

Anyway, it was really interesting, productive and very thought provoking.

It's done.  It looks like Obama is going to be President.  It will be interesting to see if we Republicans give him the very same treatment that the democrats gave to President Bush.  I seriously would not be surprised that Republicans (at least some) dish out the same treatment to Obama as Bush received.  Of course every criticism will be called racist.  Well, it will be an intersting 2 years.   G-d help the United States.  G-d help Israel.  G-d help us all.

1 I doubt that.   Look at the many criticisms laid at Bush...I don't think any have been called anti-semetic.   Thank you try again.
