Mr Lindsay was a close friend of Henry Kissinger. >>>“Military men are just dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy.” - Heinz Alfred Kissinger - (May 27, 1923 – November 29, 2023)
Hey wait, Lindsay was in the service. He was a lawyer, that's really putting yourself on the front line. No wonder he has no problem sending other people to die.
I gagged when I read this celebration of a genocidal monster: The man who settled and built the nation of my birth arrived on our shores carrying the memories and the traditions and the Christian faith of their ancestors as a sacred inheritance, an unbreakable link between the old world and the new."
Columbus did not settle the New World as the ignorant call it but he destroyed the people who shared "everything" with him it and built nothing but a tradition of genocide.
Here is Las Casas, a contemporary priest who was the chronicler of the Columbus genocide and the first to turn against Western colonialism and defend the natives: hw nor only names the genocide but identifies the cause:
"The reason the Christians have murdered on such a vast scale and killed anyone and everyone in their way is purely and simply greed.
Island of Hispaniola once so populous (having a population that I estimated to be more than three million), has now a population of barely two hundred persons."
And, he gives a graphic description of the utter evil of the Europeans in search of gold.....
"Bartolomé de las Casas, A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, 1540/42
And the Christians, with their horses and swords and pikes began to carry out massacres and strange cruelties against them. They…spared neither the children nor the aged nor pregnant women nor women in childbed, not only stabbing them and dismembering them but cutting them to pieces as if dealing with sheep in the slaughter house. They laid bets as to who, with one stroke of the sword, could split a man in two or could cut off his head or spill out his entrails with a single stroke of the pike. They took infants from their mothers’ breasts, snatching them by the legs and pitching them headfirst against the crags or snatched them by the arms and threw them into the rivers, roaring with laughter and saying as the babies fell into the water, “Boil there, you offspring of the devil!”…They made some low wide gallows on which the hanged victim’s feet almost touched the ground, stringing up their victims in lots of thirteen, in memory of Our Redeemer and His twelve Apostles, then set burning wood at their feet and thus burned them alive. …With still others, …they cut off their hands and hung them round the victim’s neck …"
Las Casas
This describes the "traditions" Rubio wants us to renew and restore.
I could not help but recall those passages as little Marco gushed about the glorious past. The most extreme and depraved heinous acts from the moment of the arrival of his forbears.
Original sin does not apply to human beings but it does apply to nations, whether the USA founded on slavery and genocide or Israel, likewise born in sin. In fact, it is my view that the very concept of the state (monopoly of violence) is the sin which has pushed civilization into endless slavery and wars.
Marco Rubio's speech sounded like the speech the Nazis made in Blues Brothers when they won their court case. "White men. White women. The Swastica is calling you. The sacred and ancient symbol of your race since the beginning of time" blah blah blah. LOL. "White power, white supremacy, white resistance, white culture, white history, war, war, war, power, power, power, strength through war, white people ueber alles" ..absolutely ridiculous and disgusting and it would even be comical if they were not in power and actually implementing this shit.
It seems certain now these insulated jackasses will attack Iran (soon) for no good reason, other than it is a validation for their psychotic, ego driven perverted masculinity. And I don't think the world fully yet realizes what happens when fools like these open Pandora's jar. Fools who believe Pandora was just some meaningless wives tale - some old and useless Greek myth.
They have very good reasons: Oil and more oil, pipelines, resources, the Strait of Hormuz, the staggeringly lucrative sale of weapons, their pathologically sick love of destruction and death that rivals the IDF and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ tax free.
They don’t think it will affect them and they’ve made it pretty clear how little they care how it affects everyone else. I hope all the people in South Carolina finally wake up to the obvious fact Lindsay Graham doesn’t now and never will, do one thing for them.
I hope so too, but it seems to take a lot for some people to wake up. And Lindsay Graham lies through his teeth, seduces them, though not of the caliber of Epstein, and plays to and inflames every one of their prejudices taught in their families, southern schools and communities. In the realm of truth, his constituency have a lot stacked against them.
OIL and stock market finance is their only validation. Their idiocy obviously knows no boundaries, so let's invade Greenland too! Can't get enough lithium for our cell phones and cordless tools...
Yes, WE in the u.s. can not have a country that has, healthcare, education, housing for it's citizens. We would lose control of them. We are the Empire after all : )
But your money provides all those things for Israelis in Israhell. One day Americans may wake up and realize they've been shafted all along by their red and blue uniparty. One day... maybe...
Yep, the 500 year reign of global empires controlled from US and Europe is coming to an end. Countries like China, India, Iran and others, which are heirs to civilizations thousands of years old, are beginning to take their place in the world. Rubio’s unhinged rant was like some nineteenth century arch-imperialist and is out of place in our new multi-polar world. The fact that European leaders gave Rubio a standing ovation was pathetic, old white people hoping to reclaim long lost glory by bowing and ingratiating themselves in front of a representative of a violent and barbaric regime which has no respect for them.
India is ruled by an Islamophobic Hindu nationalist authoritarian strong man with Centralization of power in the PMO.
Pressure on NGOs, journalists, and opposition parties.
Use of sedition, anti-terror, and defamation laws.
India is a failed nation with about 10%–12% of India’s population living below $2.15/day (PPP-adjusted, recent estimates).
That’s roughly 140–170 million people.
Half live on $3.65 a day and 80% on less than $7 a day
while the government buys French jets and about .6% millionaires.
I spent two months there: the rivers (holy or not) are too polluted to use to irrigate crops, trash is everywhere, and 30 oif the world's most polluted cities (out of 50) are in India. The government does nothing about this. If this is the future, gosh spare us And Iran: run by an aging theocracy out of touch with the people and crushing human rights.
China? The future! But not India and iran but Brazil, Mexico.......and Spain....this is the future.
If part of Europe lived behind a so-called Iron Curtain in 1945 it was because the US put them there. Let's remember that Stalin himself, rightly concerned, like some members of NATO, over German unification, requested that the Soviet Union be admitted to NATO and that when Russia was rejected it came back with a proposal for a unified European security organization that included a unified Germany. Again Russja was rejected, which led the Soviet nations to form the Warsaw Pact.
The last two world wars were secular wars. I doubt Jesus ever said, "Go Forth, and Kill One Another". Although, there have been hundreds of different "Christian" sects since he existed, and plenty of different redacted bibles. All, that have been used to justify all sorts of human atrocities.
But Secularism is not insulated from human atrocities by any stretch of the imagination. It really isn't about religion at all in the end.
Erm... Mr Rubio: Please define the term: "civilization". It's in the dictionary. Maybe you're too intellectually challenged to read one or actually own one...
"Socialism played a leading role in pushing back against the abusive colonialism and empire-building of the western world in recent decades."
Hooray for Socialism! Now, all we have to do is dump losers like Rubio and Graham and we'll have a perfect world. Perhaps their loose lips are Freudian slips and they're hinting that they need to be relieved of their positions of power--soonest.
I think it will take a whole lot more than those to scumbags. I thought voting would change things. Both parties are the Duopoly. I thought a General Strike would change things. The wealthy are so wealthy now we can stop the world until working people die of starvation. They will live in their bunkers and own everything. Civil War is coming I think.
And our US masters won't even have to ask. Our government will beg and plead for our young people to be allowed to go and be slaughtered. No "worthy" kids will go, of course.
These warmongering maniacs are always invoking Christianity when Jesus Christ (if he exists) wouldn't recognize any of them. If anything, he's embarrassed and offended that they're using his name.

May HK rot in hell.
Heh... I'm pretty sure the Devil filed a restraining order against Henry long before Henry stopped fouling Earths environment...
That's cold as fuck

tRumps suckers and losers ?
Nah... Just rump suckers. Mmmm, mmmm, good!

And we thought the IDF to be cruelly evil. Is this a trademark of being human?
Hummm, these two Nations are one in the same. This country is evil, like no others.

Exactly :( And yes they have opened Pandora's Box and have no idea what they are unleashing, especially on themselves.
Millions & millions of mankind
Burned, crushed, broken, mutilated,
Slaughtered, and for what? For thinking,
For walking around the world in the wrong
Skin, the wrong-shaped noses, eyelids:
Sleeping the wrong night in the wrong city -
London, Dresden, Hiroshima ...

Apparently, that would be too much socialism, which according to the warmongering monsters who rule us - is evil.
Destruction of Middle East trade routes and oil facilities will cause the price of USA fossil fuels to skyrocket, thus Making America Great Again.
I wonder what all those American soldiers sitting in their isolated bases across the Middle East are thinking right now? Was it worth it?
Their role doesn't attract thinkers.
These are the last gasps of a dying ideology.

It needs to be helped along. Where's the needle?
Such optimism.
The “Judeo-Christian” values of Baal are coming for all of humanity
Yup, and AOC auditioned for the neocon line (but with, like, pronouns!) in Munich.
lol. "But the people will welcome our rainbow-colored bombs."

Graham says American soldier would be at risk but that would be ok because he's out of harms way and his alliegence to Israel is his priority.
As long as your life isn't at risk, or those of your children - it all becomes some kind of faraway abstraction on your war room video screens.
You are correct. But there is also money to be made, both from Israel and the defense industry, so there have to be perpetual wars.
How much money will be made when the losing side sets off a nuclear bomb?
Christian faith
Is turning the world into non christians...
Can't happen soon enough

You haven't heard of the new documents recently unearthed in Israel.
Erm... Mr Rubio: Please define the term: "civilization". It's in the dictionary. Maybe you're too intellectually challenged to read one or actually own one...
Poor guy. He does not see that he and those like him are the ones bringing the end of ‘western civilization’
When your enemy is making a mistake--don't let him know!
There's much to be said for accelerationism.
"Socialism played a leading role in pushing back against the abusive colonialism and empire-building of the western world in recent decades."

Bunkers have air vents...that can be filled with concrete.
.. and Oz will march off to war wherever our imperial masters point, like the good little lapdogs that we are.
And our US masters won't even have to ask. Our government will beg and plead for our young people to be allowed to go and be slaughtered. No "worthy" kids will go, of course.
Operational experience. Nothing like battle tested armed forces.
Iran will not be a safe little skirmish like some of our adventurism though.. air, sea and ground all subject to peer warfare.. yeah, nah… not for Oz.
This should be unbelievable but it’s not. Be afraid

yawn hannity hypo-christianity insanity is real
