THE DAY AFTER .......

From 5000 miles away, I couldn't but notice and comment,  that less than a day after voting to override the American president's veto  of a sick bill , that would innocently and naively in all appearances serve a specific purpose, a bill that solely serves partisan political purposes and ideologies, gains and ambitions, a bill that would open the way for 9/11  families to sue Saudi Arabia for an alleged official role in the terrorist attacks . Not even taking into consideration a possible involvement of other elements and sides , nor the reopening of the case and its implications and derivatives.

Well !!  less than a day later, all or most of our senior and junior enlightened  members of the Senate and House , are fretting and expressing remorse and regrets over a hastened decision called "JASTA" .  Practically all political leaders and legislators , just of a sudden , want to fix the language of the  "Jasta" bill ,  We've humiliated , in historic ways the president of the country , now we can wake-up and face reality.

Realizing  the way bigger dangers ,to American interests , troops , American designers of policy,  wars and hegemony , American diplomats , even simple citizens , tourists and business people . Not to mention all of our allies across the world starting and finishing with Israel . all a day after .

The U.S.  invented the legal principle of sovereign immunity , to protect itself and its world wide adventures , troops , and adventurers politicians , 15 years after the events of 9/11 , and purely for political spite and narrow gains, our Reps reversed course against the core of the principle , and one country , the rich , or not so rich anymore Saudi Arabia ,

It might open the doors for some Billions of Dollars , for some victims families , and the doors for a National and worldwide  economic inferno and depression , plus thousands upon tens of thousands , of similarly inspired cases internationally , against America , Americans , and most of the allied free world .

Unfortunately , not one senior and enlightened legislator  saw or realized any danger until after signature time . What a pity , when a leading country like the U.S. would let itself be driven by stupidity and short sighted visions, politics, and legislation, and how dangerously we are driving and leading the Nation and the whole world with us. while always pretending and claiming the contrary . Let us not be the open laughter of the world .

As all our elected politicians , focus on meager potential benefits and lobbies , and no one could really legislate on real dangers and downsides to our national interests , or the world's stability , safety and political harmony . American politicians cannot keep pretending innocence and naivety when suitable , and shrewd attitudes and astuteness when advantageous .

Present presidential elections show and saga are only the other side of the same coin clearly in every act and action lately , as it was few weeks ago with the regrettable Brexit  affair , where now every Brit is sorry for , all newly reproduced in our last bit of legislation and counter vetoes .

Who was it who said ;" There is nothing hidden that won't be revealed."  we cannot keep hiding behind pretentious false smiles and keep pretending .

 As usual, my many thanks for your time and help spreading the blog .
