Trump foreign policy

Well, at least Bolton got his wish

 

The best part of the Bolton/Xi/Concentration camp story is how Xi has never admitted these camps exist. Ever. Yet he glibly tells POTUS that they do? 

 

Nah, that dog just won't hunt. Of course, asking people to think for themselves and employ reason and logic to "breaking news" is too much these days for most.

U.S. and Poland work to finalize defense deal ahead of Duda visit
 

Officials are focused on finalizing the legal details of the defense agreement Trump and Duda announced last year.
 

U.S. and Polish officials are finalizing a defense cooperation agreement ahead of Polish President Andrzej Duda's visit to the White House on Wednesday, as questions swirl about a potential deployment of thousands of additional U.S. troops to Polish soil.
 

Officials are focused on the legal details of the defense agreement President Donald Trump and Duda announced last year, a senior administration official told reporters on Tuesday. Since then, the two countries inaugurated a new divisional headquarters in Poland, headed by a U.S. general, and have made progress establishing a combat training center there, the official said.

The officials declined to answer questions about whether Trump plans to move any of the 9,500 U.S. troops from Germany to Poland. The second official pointed to vague comments by national security adviser Robert O'Brien in a Monday op-ed that the troops may redeploy to other countries in Europe, but they also may head to the Indo-Pacific, or return to the U.S.

What is he referring to?
 

Kosovo President Hashim Thaci indicted on war crimes charges ahead of planned White House meeting
 

Kosovo President Hashim Thaci was indicted on a range of war crimes charges, including nearly 100 murders, a special prosecutor in The Hague announced Wednesday, just three days before the leader was due at the White House for a special summit with Serbia.

Who knows? Maybe there really is something to it?  But a cynical person might think that the EU really does not want these talks to take place.

A good book to understand the psyche of the Polish people is James Michener's "Poland". He always seemed to be able to capture the essence of a country or area even though his works were fiction. He did seem to be able to weave actual historical figures in very well though.

Meanwhile, back in the funhouse, the mullahs are getting pushed back.

 

Quote

 

Iraqi security forces have raided the offices of one of the country's most powerful Iran-backed militias, signalling a possible crackdown on Tehran's military influence in Baghdad.

The raid on Thursday night saw the arrest of more than a dozen members of Kataib Hezbollah, a Shia militia group blamed by the US for numerous rocket attacks on American bases in Iraq. The group's activities ultimately led to last January's US airstrike in Baghdad that killed Qassem Solaimani, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander who sponsored them.

WELL, GOOD: 

America is rapidly pulling troops from Afghanistan.

 

“It was only in 2001 that American forces toppled the Taliban regime, when the mullahs who led the movement refused to hand over Osama bin Laden after the 9/11 attacks. But nearly two-thirds of the population is less than 25 years old, and so has little or no memory of the Taliban’s rule. They are having to brush up on their history, however, as they contemplate the prospect of the Taliban returning to power in some form. The American troops that have propped up the Afghan government and held the Taliban at bay for the past 19 years are on their way out.”

 

If Kabul can’t make it after nearly 20 years of American blood and treasure, they never will and were never going to.

US formally notifies the UN that it’s withdrawing from the World Health Organization; Could the UN be next?

 

 

There was much rending of garments and gnashing of teeth by liberals at the end of May when President Trump announced that the United States would be terminating its relationship with the World Health Organization and redirecting the money toward other public health efforts around the world that didn’t seem to be in league with China and repeating its communist propaganda.

 

Now it’s July, and we’re hearing that the United States has formally notified the United Nations that it’s withdrawing from the WHO.

Again, we'd be crazy to completely pull out of the UN.  Get off some of it's more ridiculous committees - absolutely do it.  But leave the general assembly and the security council - nfw.

Speaking of Pompeo

 

Pompeo whistleblower complaint reveals ongoing inquiry over ‘questionable activities’

 

“Justifying many of those redactions, the State Department said that the information was the subject of an ongoing investigation – confirming for the first time that at least one inquiry into the secretary continues after President Donald Trump fired the department’s longtime inspector general, Steve Linick, at Pompeo’s request.”

Still not as bad as AG Lynch having a private meeting with Bill Clinton on a plane, then days later Hillary is exonerated
