I beg to differ with a number of liberal TV pundits about Michael Flynn

I do not know whether president elect Donald Trump's (PREZ T) to make Michael Flynn the national security adviser is a good decision or not.

Only time will tell whether Michael Flynn can succeed in rooting out ISIS are not.

Where I differ from the other liberal TV pundits is to paint Michael Flynn as some flaky person who calls the religion of Islam as the main root cause of all terrorism. One need to understand that all those people who talk about Islam being a religion of peace do not know their history or what is written in their holy Koran.

"The second inescapable truth asserts that merely killing insurgents usually serves to multiply enemies rather than subtract them. This counterintuitive dynamic is common in many guerrilla conflicts and is especially relevant in the revenge-prone Pashtun communities whose cooperation military forces seek to earn and maintain. The Soviets experienced this reality in the 1980s, when despite killing hundreds of thousands of Afghans, they faced a larger insurgency near the end of the war than they did at the beginning"

The above paragraph goes totally against the Obama doctrine of drone warfare.

Which I totally agree with. PREZ T may look like an idiot but not everybody who is around him are idiots except for Bannon of course!

 this paragraph  by  Flynn is  uncanny

To understand the dynamics of this process, it is useful to think of the Afghanistan war as a political campaign, albeit a violent one. If an election campaign spent all of its effort attacking the opposition and none figuring out which districts were undecided, which were most worthy of competing for, and what specific messages were necessary to sway them, the campaign would be destined to fail. No serious contender for the American presidency ever confined himself or herself solely to the “strategic” level of a campaign, telling the staff to worry only about the national and regional picture and to leave individual counties and election districts entirely in the hands of local party organizers, disconnected from the overall direction of the campaign.

“Ten cents worth of flattery and he’s got Trump sucking up his butt.”

“The guy brags that he can’t be bought and yet Putin proved the guy is the cheapest political buy in the game,” Mr. Sununu said Monday afternoon. “Ten cents worth of flattery and he’s got Trump sucking up his butt.”

Some context for this fight: Mr. Sununu, who served as President George H.W. Bush’s White House chief of staff and was governor of New Hampshire during the ’80s, last week penned an op-ed in the New Hampshire Union Leader asking people to not “drink the Trump Kool-aid.”

Monday morning during a rally in Windham, N.H., Mr. Trump used his most potent epithet for Mr. Sununu – calling him a loser.

know-nothing vulgarians:L who is Peter Franz Schweizer?

Peter Franz Schweizer
Peter Franz Schweizer (November 24, 1964) is an American author and political consultant. He is the president of the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) and a former William J. Casey Research Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution.^[1] He is also Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large.^[2] He is known for writing Clinton Cash, a 2015 book that investigates donations made to the Clinton Foundation by foreign entities, paid speeches made by Bill and Hillary Clinton, and the Clintons' personal enrichment since they left the White House, 
but  he also wrote 
Bush bucks 
In 2015, Schweizer authored an e-book, Bush Bucks: How Public Service and Corporations Helped Make Jeb Rich. The book raises questions about the millions of dollars former Florida Governor Jeb Bushearned after leaving office from companies that benefited from Bush's policy while he was serving as governor of Florida.
Peter Schweizer admitted he overreached in attacking Hillary Clinton's purported role in approving a Russian uranium deal and falsely claimed that then-Secretary of State Clinton "had veto power" to stop the Russian State Atomic Nuclear Agency (Rosatom) from purchasing Uranium One. Schweizer has suggested Clinton approved the deal as a favor for Clinton Foundation donors.^[25]

Hey Bannon ! Do you remember who invaded Afghanistan and Iraq ?

"Not only has the U.S. government wasted $85 million to construct a major hotel and an apartment building in Afghanistan deemed abandoned and uninhabitable, American taxpayers are also footing the bill for security at the buildings, located near the U.S. Embassy, according to an Afghan reconstruction watchdog agency appointed by Congress."

"Under the George W. Bush administration, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the U.S. government’s development finance component, approved a proposal submitted by Fathi Taher, a Jordanian citizen, and his U.S. sponsor, General Systems International LLC, to construct the 209-room, five-star Marriott Kabul Hotel for $58 million."
Now Bannon  wants to put the  blame on to  Obama  personally !

' In an unprecedented nationwide outreach effort, OPIC staff actively sought project applicants by going on the road to tell our story in as many ways as possible: through the media, in college and university sponsored programs, with the assistance of local government and Congressional offices, and in numerous meetings with the small business community. We believe that reaching out and making it easier for U.S. small businesses to expand into challenging overseas markets represents OPIC at its best. As you will read in this annual report, the projects they are involved in represent entrepreneurial America at its best."

This was in 2003 OPIC report  boasting!

Is OPIC part of the U.S. Government?

Yes, OPIC was established in 1971 as an agency of the U.S. Government. Organized as a corporation with a corporate structure, it is governed by a Board of Directors, President and CEO, and Executive Vice President, all nominated by the President of the United States and approved by the U.S. Senate. Although it operates on a self-sustaining basis at no net cost to American taxpayers, OPIC is appropriated administrative funding, and reauthorized on a regular basis, by the U.S. Congress.

Are OPIC services U.S. taxpayer-funded?

OPIC operates on a self-sustaining basis at no net cost to American taxpayers. In fact, 2015 marked the 38th straight year that OPIC has generated money for American taxpayers and helped reduce the federal deficit, while supporting a range of highly developmental projects from power plants in Sub-Saharan Africa, to low income housing in Latin America and food processing facilities in Eastern Europe.

Sigmund Freud and Steve Bannon

“Racial anxiety” refers to the heightened levels of stress and emotion that we confront when interacting with people of other races. People of color experience concern that they will be the subject of discrimination and hostility. White people, meanwhile, worry that they will be assumed to be racist. Studies have show that interracial interaction can cause physical symptoms of anxiety and that our non-verbal behaviors—making eye contact, using welcoming gestures or a pleasant tone of voice, for example—can be affected as well. When everyone in a conversation is anxious that it will turn negative, it often does. This causes a kind of feedback loop where the fears and anxieties of both white people and people of color are confirmed by their everyday interactions.

White economic insecurity in the face of a browning nation is part of White racial anxiety

Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon suggests having too many Asian tech CEOs undermines ‘civic society’

 “When two-thirds or three-quarters of the CEOs in Silicon Valley are from South Asia or from Asia, I think . . . ” he didn’t finish his sentence. “A country is more than an economy. We’re a civic society.”

Suck it up!you cry baby. 

  South Asians rock !

This is like the Britishers crying about  cricket!

T] he practitioners of psychoanalysis are almost categorically all white, and its analytical models disregard the effects of racial differences on the lived experiences of the analysts and analysands. . . . African American scholars have been so hesitant in embracing psychoanalysis. For once African Americans recognize that psychoanalysis always seems to boil down to sexual matters to the exclusion of race matters, psychoanalysis appears to ally itself as much or more with the forces of white privilege than with those of racial equality.

Freud [by identifying himself with the lion] has established (however unconsciously) an equation between the analyst/patient relationship and the most brutal form of the master / slave relationship, in which the slave is only a piece of meat to satisfy the master's ravenous appetite (for power, money, sex, aggression, or whatever). Freud's joke thus reveals an imbalance of power intrinsic to the analytic relationship that in many ways puts the patient at the mercy of the analyst, just as the slave is at the mercy of the master.

First of all, we have to redefine mental illness. Many forms of human distress and misbehaviour, seen through Western eyes as 'illness', are not medicalized in other cultures. Eastern psychotherapies, for example, deal with contemplative awareness; 'neurosis' can be a path to enlightenment for a Buddhist.

Much of Western psychotherapy is currently directed towards problem-solving or decision-making, reflecting the value given to personal self-sufficiency and the control of events by Western culture. In Western thinking an illness is generated by causes arising from biological or psychological change.

In older cultures all changes are seen as relative - as in the thinking of modern physics. And it is just possible that Western ideas in psychiatry could be incorporated into a relativity model. Biochemical and genetic influences might come to be better understood in dynamic balance or imbalance with each other, and with others - social, cultural, spiritual and cosmological.

The second thing we have to do is restructure the way we organize mental health care. The World Health Organization (WHO) spreads the gospel according to Western psychiatry. The ethos of psychiatry suits the marketing of Western drugs and fails to address racism. So, rightly or wrongly, one gets the impression that the WHO itself is condoning racism and is dominated by Western economic interests. This alliance must be broken.

The final vision is of a world in which the concept of illness would remain but would not be fixed in firm categories assumed to be universal. Mental health is not unlike happiness or sorrow, which are relative rather than absolute. There would be diversity within unity.

Different cultures should be understood as different paths towards the same basic goal - that of living together in peace, in communion with one another and our environment. Mental health is different because of culture and race yet the same irrespective of either. That is a paradox - but it is also the reality.
