I Am A Retired Veteran
I Am A Retired Veteran
By Norman E. Hooben USAF, MSgt, RetiredI am a retired veteran of the United States Armed Forces
Now I am a member of We The People…
During my active duty years I’ve seen war and rumors of war. I protected We The People…
I fought for God and country Blessed by We The People…
The path I chose was The road not taken by We The People….
They were the best years of my life
Unbeknown to We The People…
The hardships I endured Will never be shared by We The People…
With over twenty years in uniform
Now I dress as We The People…
Time moves on and I’m here to say
Freedom is not free for We The People…
When it was said that old soldiers never die
They just fade away by We The People…
When the time has come and my years are spent I’ll be buried by We The People…

IT'S A SCAM the biggest scam in world history
I suppose that I should be comfortable elaborating on this subject for we once discussed it over live radio. But I'm not the guy to listen to at this stage of the scam. In all honesty, I knew very little about this until Ron (Ron Arnold the host of the radio talk show, I'm just the guest host. See picture above.) brought it up. I had little to add to the broadcast and Ron had the book in front of him while informing the listening audience.
In the months and years that followed, I accumulated probably as much information has Ron had, for I at least had my own copy of the book. Not a comfortable read, but I read it twice and at times quoted from it.
The years passed and Lara Logan had the opportunity to interview the author, G. Edward Griffin. Griffin was asked what he would do if he could be king for day...he dodged the question. Now if I were a king for a day, I would order every person in my kingdom to read, 'The Creature From Jekyll Island'.
You don't have time to read you say...
Well the guy to listen to is G. Edward Griffin. - Norman E. Hooben

FOCUS ON THIS
For all the people who would rather see America burn than see Trump win, you need to understand this.
While eight American presidents were sitting in the same chair, reading the same intelligence, looking at the same maps, Iran was underground.
Drills grinding through granite in the dark. Men hauling rock out of mountains by the ton. Building something they never intended to show us until it was too late.
That’s not theory. That’s what was happening while we were talking.
They told us for years their missiles had a maximum range of 1,250 miles. Said it publicly. Said it repeatedly. Then on March 20th they fired two ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia, a joint U.S. and British base sitting 2,500 miles away in the Indian Ocean.
Twice the range they swore they had.
That’s not a miscalculation. That’s a lie they told us while they finished the job.
And when the world noticed, Iran looked us dead in the eye and said you didn’t see what you just saw.
They weren’t building in warehouses. They were threading missiles the length of telephone poles into the belly of mountains, sealing them behind hundreds of feet of solid granite that would shrug off anything we could drop on it. Not because they were afraid of a fight. Because they were preparing for one and they intended to finish it.
Eight presidents knew it. Democrat. Republican. Didn’t matter. The answer was the same every time. Hand it to the next man. Loaded a wooden pallet with shrink-wrapped bundles of foreign currency, rolled it across a dark tarmac in the dead of night with the engines still running, and called it diplomacy. Pull your leg back and kick the can down the road so your children and grandchildren could settle it someday.
While we were debating the culture, they were perfecting the kill chain.
That’s the gap nobody wants to say out loud.
20% of the world’s oil moves through the Strait of Hormuz every single day. Control it and you don’t just own the Middle East. You own the global economy. Fuel. Food. Shipping. Everything your family pays for every single week.
That’s your house.
They don’t need a single boot on American soil to bring this country to its knees.
If this goes sideways, you won’t hear it on the news first. You’ll feel it standing at a gas pump in the Florida sun, card in hand, watching the screen freeze. And you won’t know why.
They don’t need to invade your town to bankrupt your family.
Nobody wanted this conflict. Not one person who understands what war costs wanted this. But the people asking when things go back to normal are asking the right question about the wrong timeline. This didn’t start a month ago. It started in 1979. We just finally showed up to it.
Left alone, Iran was not quietly going into the good night. They were not going to stop arming the groups that walked into Israel and slaughtered innocent families at a music festival. They weren’t going to stop until every tunnel was sealed, every launcher was buried, every ally we have was in range, and the fortification was done.
And then we were supposed to believe they would politely wave our ships through.
That was never the deal. Everybody in that room knew it.
Every administration from both parties declared them the number one enemy of the United States. They have told us who they are. Loudly. Repeatedly. For 45 years. They wish us harm. They wish our allies harm. They wish your way of life harm.
Eight presidents heard that and chose later.
There is no more later.
The can is gone. There’s no road left to kick it down.
By acting now we may have put off the unimaginable. That’s not a comfortable thing to say. It’s not supposed to be. But it’s the only honest answer to the people who want to know when things go back to normal.
They don’t go back. They go forward. The only question is whether we chose the moment or the moment chose us.
Nobody gets to pick the timing of history. But somebody always has to answer it.
