international players

over the past week in San Diego, I've gone out dancing at a few Brazilian clubs with friends, like I used to many years ago. While I love the music and the culture overall, I was quickly reminded about why I stopped going out to clubs. The guys are SO forward and are only after one thing, which I am not at liberty to give, nor do I desire to operate this way. The word we use for such men who try to get busy with various women is a "player" regardless of country of origin. Even though these clubs are in San Diego, the international flavor displayed creates a feeling of being in the various countries, a generally favorable vibe.

While I don't prefer the player scene, my interest in International Players on the political scale is a bit more dominant. Are we witnessing the second Cold War, leading to World War 3? Where did sleeping dog Russia come from all of the sudden, in recent weeks? Withdrawing from EU arms treaties, defying the American presence in nuclear defense in the region, and Putin puttin up a big stink, like the big dogs do. North Korea shutting down their nuclear reactor, only in response to the possibility of the US lifting sanctions against the supposed terrorist sponsoring state? Japan's devastating quake disabling their nuclear plant, sitting upon 4 tectonic plates - will their neighbors come to their aid? Has the US pissed off China with its new Democratic attitude, Nancy Pelosi failing to renew our international trade agreement at the end of last month. This will hurt the US more than it will help our internal economy, as the International Players are playing for power in the world.

Will the countries that sponsor terrorism reach amicable agreements with the US and EU, or will Tony and George continue to fight for the freedoms we in the west deserve? Will the recognition of a Palestinian state and the release of prisoners - criminals - out on the loose bring a solid and lasting peace that the region has always hoped for? Will the defiance of Hamas against the West and its joining forces with Al-Qaeda make for a smoother segue to Camp David II? Is Osama Bin Laden REALLY hiding along the Afghanistan/Pakistan border as the media suspects, because if he was wouldn't that make his capture eminent? Will the upcoming war involve nuclear strategies by the International Players, or Arab mind games and technological warfare upon the security of the West? Where will you stand when the International Players bring destruction upon our world?
