Clinton Goes to Azerbaijan, Iran War Moves Forward

Hillary Clinton is visiting the strategic theater -

Clinton will be visiting Ukraine, Poland, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia from July 1 to 5, the State Department announced Friday, June 25. In Ukraine, she'll meet President Viktor Yanukovych, who unlike his predecessor, does not support Ukraine joining NATO. In Poland, she'll celebrate the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Community of Democracies, a network of democracies dedicated to strengthening democratic norms worldwide.

In the Caucasus, Clinton will first visit Armenia and Azerbaijan, which have a long-running feud over Azerbaijan's breakaway Nagorno-Karabakh region. State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said during June 25's press briefing that the United States has "invested a great deal of energy" in improving relations among Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey and that Clinton's visit is a "reflection of our commitment to work to resolve outstanding issues that have prevented normalized relations among those countries."  

Clinton will conclude her trip in Georgia, which fought a war with Russia in August 2008 over the breakaway region of South Ossetia. Crowley said of the visit to Georgia, "[T]he secretary's trip there will be a tangible manifestation of our ongoing commitment to Georgia's territorial integrity."

The Real Effect
Of course this lends huge credence to the report that I published last week that U.S. troops were massing on the border in Azerbaijan near Iran pending an invasion. Remember that I stated that the date of July 11 was highly suspicious.

I find it curious that Clinton is scheduled to be overseas from July 1 - 5, surely just visiting the local coffee shops, and it just so happens that Benjamin Netanyahu gets to Washington the day after. Oh, and don't forget the eclipses that will be happening just before and after, while a movie of the same name is playing in the theaters.

On a related note, the quote of the day goes to Vox Day with the following -

On the one hand, I am all for whatever puts more guns in the hands of individuals. Or tactical nukes, for that matter. I will never understand why people who understand the many and manifest evils of the DMV think that only government employees should have weapons of mass destruction.
