Pirates on the Seas The civilized nations of the world will no longer tolerate “piracy on the high seas”! Presently, several nations have stepped forward to unite against this centuries old problem. In addition to using modern, hi-tech naval forces to fight these pirates, the owners of transport ships, cruise boats, and merchant ships should consider buying small arms and arming their crews with them. Instead of surrendering to the pirates they should fight them (and blow them out of the water)!
That’s right–ship crews should fire 5000 rounds of Nato 7.62 ammunition at the “bullies of the seas” (along with a few RPG’s) and see if that changes the game plans of those pirates. I bet that would give them a whole new attitude for 2009 (and stop the problem for good). Instead of fearing pirates, they should turn the game around on them, and make the pirates “fear their prey”. 1000 dead pirates later the problem would stop.
IRAQ In a military sense the Coalition Forces appear to have the “upper hand” in Iraq. Their nation building activities appear to be successfull. Troops should look out for all the typical traps that the enemy like to use against our troops. Bombings and sniping will most likely continue, however, the over-all game plan of making a new nation amazingly appears to be on track.
SECURITY/TERRORISM It is my opinion that Africa and Asia will see more bombings and terrorism than Europe and New World will see in 2009. Of course everyone should remain vigilant in their fight against terrorism (and whenever there is an opportunity to strike back against evil terrorists–we should! Hell Fire Missiles, 7.62 mm NATO rounds, .50 caliber shells, and 20 mm cannon rounds work quite well in this capacity
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION Just like last year, the social trend of “reverse immigration” back to Mexico will continue to be the trend in 2009.
AMERICAN JOBS Under the Bush Administration the Dept. of Labor did three things for the American worker. #1. They exported American manufacturing jobs over to China. #2. The domestic jobs were held for illegal Mexican immigrants to take. #3. Or, they did “nothing at all” to help the American worker. Hoefully Presient Obama will correct this trend and put the American worker back into a place of success and prosperity.
CUBA Maybe this year (or in a year or two) there will be a lot of positive changes in the relationship between Cuba and the United States. Moving forward to create a positive and productive relationship between these two countries will prove to be a good thing for everyone concerned.
Pakistan There will be a lot of heat on the nation of Pakistan this year. Their are many problems in this region to consider. First there is the issue if security in Afghanistan, and then there is an even bigger problem to examine between Pakistan and India. If diplomacy fails in this region it could lead to a huge and awful war India and Pakistan which could possibly develop into something like Word War III. So–people need to remain “wise and prudent” in thier diplomatic efforts in Asia.
THE PRICE OF GAS The Petrol Merchants wre kind to lower the price of gas from $4.50/gallon, down to $1.50 per gallon. I guess enouugh people complained about it (just short of revolution in the streets) in order to force these heartless merchants to lower their prices. Hopefully prices will remain low for awhile, however, every May, they always seem to raise the price of gas just before American families take their summer vacations (so beware).
UFO SIGHTINGS I believe this might prove to be another year of exciting mass UFO sightings (like have been occuring in Stephenville, Texas and in Mexico City). If these UFO’s are manned by a highly advanced species of alien life-forms, then let’s hope that they can tell us what we need to do to save our planet from ecological destruction. According to UFO abductees–the message these space travelers are attempting to tell us is that we are slowly destroying our home planet of Earth (and that we better realize is and correct things before it is too late to).
