WE ARE VULNERABLE

This is not poetic and
It is not amusing but
Sad how our media and
Politicians are indignant
About Russia offering
The Taliban bounty money
For every American soldier
Killed in Afghanistan
It is an unsubstantiated story
But goes on to blame the
Trump administration for
Not taking action
Toward Russia
 
The same reporters and
Politicians never raise a
Similar accusation against
Iran’s offering bounty to
The same Taliban to kill
American servicemen
They want to foil any of
Our efforts to influence
Afghanistan and also
Frustrate progress in
Armistice talks being
Conducted in Qatar
 
Iran wants to influence
The provinces adjacent to
Them and has hosted
The radical Taliban groups
The real issue however
Is why the U.S. media,
Reporters and politicians
Remain silent about it
Iran is the sponsor of
Terrorism in this region
Of the world and has been
Ever since 9/11
 
Will we every wake up?
The Bush administration
Began wars in Afghanistan
And in Iraq taking their
Eye off or Iran or ignoring
Them, while knowing
That evil existed there
The Obama administration
Returned billions in
Frozen assets to them
Along with $1.7 billion
In cash which was a
Return of $400 million
Plus interest given to
The U.S. for weapons by
The former Shah, but
Never delivered
 
All the money was delivered
To Iran which repaid debts
To China and others and
Still had enough to sponsor
The Taliban terrorists with
Deadly weapons including the
Improvised Explosive Device
Also called the IED
It goes on and on and we
Wonder what is wrong with
The world we live in
 
We are in a mess and
Whenever the President does
Something to protect our
Interests he is assailed by
This same media and these
Very politicians, who put
Their own interests in front
Of their love for this country
It is a sad commentary on
Those who should be proclaiming
The miscarriage of justice
Around the world
 
Will we ever learn?
The President is doing everything
He possibly can to strengthen
Our position around the world
Western European Countries
Protest his recommendations
But soon follow suit and the
Media banners the first and
Ignores the second
They have become compliant
And complacent as have we
