As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Keep Indigenous Culture Alive,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"Funny how everyone likes the "Indian" that talks about the earth, the water, harmony, feathers and spirit animals. But, nobody likes the "Indian" that talks about the invasion, terrorism, murder, genocide, plundering and rapes by the settlers." - Gianni Crow

My Commentary: I can also attest to the fact that even Americans who talk about the latter are disliked.

(Max Fisher) When President Obama announced US airstrikes in Iraq, most observers understood that the US would be bombing members of ISIS. What many did not know was that, in a twist of such bitterly symbolic irony that it could only occur in the Middle East, the US would also be bombing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of American military equipment.

Here’s why: in the decade since the 2003 US-led Iraq invasion, the US has spent a fortune training and arming the Iraqi army in the hopes of readying it to secure the country once America left. That meant arming the Iraqi army with high-tech and extremely expensive American-made guns, tanks, jeeps, artillery, and more.

(Don DeBar) In a move reminiscent of Senator Mike Mansfield’s observation that “Only a Nixon could go to China,” President Barack Obama has begun a US military invasion of Africa.

Ignoring the call of the African Union – the regional organization having jurisdiction which counts every African nation save Morocco among its members – and channeling the political ghost of George W. Bush on the eighth anniversary of the “Shock and Awe” attack on Iraq, “America’s First Black President” ordered the launch of some 110 Tomahawk missiles on Libya Saturday, killing an unknown number of Africans for oil.

According to various media sources, Libyan authorities reported that 48 people were killed and more than 150 injured, most of them civilians, and that the missiles hit civilian targets, among them a hospital in Tripoli, in an attack that Obama claimed was intended to protect civilians from the Libyan government.

My Commentary: “Isn’t it ironic? Don’t you think?” Perhaps Obama should receive another Nobel Peace Prize, eh?
