Minutes of Secret Meeting Between Russian Veterans and Gen. Stanley McChrystal Also Say ‘More Troops Won’t Make A Difference’
Two Russian veterans of the Soviet Afghan war privately warned Gen. Stanley McChrystal last summer that the key to winning the war would be to pay off the Taliban. The official who wrote up a summary of two meetings between the Russians and U.S. military commanders also wrote that one of the “key take-aways” from the meetings was that extra troops were not the key to victory.
ABCNews.com has obtained a document summarizing the discussions between two veterans of the Soviet Union’s failed Afghan war and McChrystal, the top U.S. general in Afghanistan, during an August 2009 video teleconference.

The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.-Thom(Do you think will try it? Tell us here.) -
