…and Impotency of the United Nations - As pictures of dead Syrian women and children spread across International media, it begs the question as to the response of the International community. In 1925, the preliminary groundwork for what would eventually become the framework of the Chemical Weapons Convention, or CWC. As of 2010, only seven nations failed to participate under the International mandate that bans the use of chemical weapons. Syria was one of the seven nations that failed to sign the agreement.
Some people would suggest the United States of America had two founding fathers. The first being George Washington, while the second being J.P. Morgan. The former is a product of a newly formed constitution that established a framework for government, while the latter held in his deep pockets minions who labored toward the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 with then President Woodrow Wilson’s approval.

“Most of us sense that the Earth is more than a sphere of rock with a thin layer of air, ocean, and life covering the surface. We feel that we belong here, as if this planet were indeed our home. Long ago the Greeks, thinking this way, gave to the Earth the name of Gaia (1)” - James Lovelock
On March 20, 2003, an event took place that would forever change global history and create a lasting impact for generations to come.

At the end of December 2011, a term of eight years, nine months and eleven days will have passed, as operations currently known as Operation New Dawn, will formally end.
As people liken this extended recessional period to the Great Depression, one can not help but draw a parallel between Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Barack Obama. At a press conference held on July 23, 2010, Obama characterized the state of the present U.S. economy as ‘worst recession since the Great Depression’.
Such statements whet the appetites of the mealy mouthed troglodytes of the fourth estate as they scurry off to their respective caves to grind whatever axe they possess in preparation for their defense or attack on the 44th President.
It was Benjamin Disraeli who proclaimed there are lies, damn lies, and statistics. Disraeli assertion appears valid as evinced by Economy theorists and pundits who can and will present statistical data in support of their glass being half empty or half full presentation.
