I want to vomit every time I hear about some "veteran who served and protected the nation while in the military". Fucking "protected" many thousands of miles away.
The amount of hypocrisy in the US is astounding. And it infected all the western "democracies". Or vice versa. The bottom line is the west is rotten to the core.
I meant none save those in the War of 1812, and possibly the Pancho Villa raids, did that. If anything, the military left Americans sitting ducks to Japanese balloon bombs.
Veterans are high priced military hit men for the bankng oligarchy dynasty family's. Anything else is the propaganda bμll sh¡t the establishment blows up the a$$ of the gulible proletariat
I remember making that same argument to some suit next to me in a plane--if you shot your neighbor in their own home because you thought they might have a gun they might use to shoot you, is that a preemptive strike? He just mansplained something like, don't worry your pretty little head about these things you jus' don't unnerstand.
Sorry, but they shoot them in their homes all the time, but they use hired help to do it. "The New Jim Crow" Michelle Alexander. Normally the Empire comes after the Republic and feeds off of it. Now I'm confident, having re-read James Madison, etc; that the Empire (settler colonial genocide/slavery economy) came first, and a faux Republic was just window dressing to fool the lower class dupes in to dying for it.
They hate us for our freedoms. We have to fight them over there so we do not have to fight them here. If you are not with us, you are against us. Did I forget any? Oh yeah, safe and effective.
We're the indispensable nation. We stand taller and see further across the horizon into the future. We must advance human rights everywhere. We're the shining city on the hill. God shed his grace on thee - the land of Manifest Destiny!
They are doing this at the behest of Israel. We were forewarned about the destruction of Syria before Bush II was out of office, if you were paying attention. Israel wants to destroy all physical evidence of the Islamic Empire (which spanned the then-known world from China to Spain).
Never lose sight of the fact that the Golan Heights, legally Syrian territory, has been "annexed" illegally by Israel. And no one says diddly-squat. They're destroying another Palestinian village in the West Bank (called "the occupied West Bank" because it is not Israeli land) in order to build more military installations for Israel. Building these installations in Palestine. And what does the U.S. government do? Give them another $1 billion, of course.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the AIPAC's PAC group has subverted the Democratic primaries in something like 10 states, throwing enormous amounts of money at the moderate candidate so Progressives, who are a smidgen--and I mean a tiny smidgen--more sympathetic towards Palestinian rights, will be defeated. End result? Those of us who abhor all this behavior have no one to vote for in the general election, which weakens our country in many ways. These moderates lack spine so our country spins further and further into the vortex. Our electoral process has been subverted by a foreign so-called "nation" (debatable that Israel is a true nation) and no one lifts a finger to stop it. It's disgusting how ignorant and prejudiced Americans are. Some officials have said this publicly although they refuse to name the nation because they do not want to be "disappeared" as too many have been here in the U.S.
Every action has a reaction. The U.S. is actively supporting its own demise. I believe that's called suicide.
I have to burst your bubble about the US being a republic where the citizen elect their leaders. That is just a fantasy and has been for a long time, as far back as FDR it was known that "Presidents are selected not elected", the truth is that the entire political landscape is corrupt and controlled. The media is managed to prop up the illusion and hide the ugly details of US crimes. I do agree the US is under attack by forces that want to see the end of any semblance of liberty.
Thanks, notBob. I know. Didn't grow up in this godforsaken country, thank god, so have never bought the usual crap taught in elementary school. I just want people to connect some dots, which they apparently are loathe to do. I long ago gave up on citizens actually mattering here. We're only important as consumers. Of everything. Actually the state I live in didn't achieve statehood for quite awhile because the huge landowners did not want the hoi polloi squatters to have a vote. Ditto POCs and women. Originally voters had to have a penis, be over the age of 18, be considered White (whose definition has changed a great deal through the centuries), own a minimum of 600 acres (that cuts most of us out even today) or $600 in Revolutionary War dollars. I have no clue how much that would be today.
Public opinion, however, does matter in the U.S. which is why Israel is pulling out the stops on propaganda as it is now--and always has done--I know that too. U.S. so-called leaders aren't really leaders but mannequins for corporate interests. They always have been. It started when the Brits sent their dissolute second sons who had run through their inheritances in Britain and were costing their papas a lot of pounds and embarrassment, and were given huge tracts of land in "the colonies". I'm the descendant of one (or maybe more). That was centuries ago but nothing's really changed.
The Israeli propaganda machine has actually stooped so low as to use COVID--or resistance to vaccine mandates--as a talking point to get people to vote for (and fund) unbelievable assholes--Republicans but they'll vote for Democratic assholes too--because claiming victimhood doesn't work anymore. My reading of their current propaganda and nefarious manipulations is that they want to tip Congress to be Republican-majority and they're using antipathy towards COVID because the Democrats, at least, are now at least 60% sympathetic towards Palestinians. Why? Because the unethical and immoral behavior of the Israeli government is too much for even Americans to swallow. That is saying a lot. Last time I looked, it was not okay for another country to control our elections but that's what we have here. That is not exactly new--Israeli has been the elephant in the room for all my lifetime--but it's blatant now.
Time to get off the pot or shit, kids.
You cannot (yet) win an election with no one voting for you at all.
We don't have to go along with it. We can clog the pipes. And we certainly do not need to fund Israel to the tune of $11 million a day. I suppose it's even more than that. And members of the military need to stand up and refuse to follow unethical orders. And consumers need to go on strike. I've been boycotting Israel since 1967. It's not hard to do. BDS took a long time to get here and I am overjoyed. But it's not enough.
FYI, Israel is killing the Mediterranean with their stupid desalinization plants. And they haven't a clue how to live in a desert sustainably. No wonder. A huge number of them are actually from New York. If they want to return to their homeland, it's Georgia, formerly part of the U.S.S.R. Next on the chopping block, apparently.
There is a bit to unpack in that response but let me just say: Elections don't change policy ever, it doesn't matter who votes or how they vote. In the end counting the votes is irrelevant, the designated winner is announced and parroted by the media and its over.
Republican vs Democrat is like Pepsi vs Coke - the only difference between the two is marketing. One side or the other sells the flavor of lies you prefer not any form of truth, not the ability to actually drive changes in the nation. Partisan politics is just one more divide and conquer game that the house always wins.
Israel is an evil nation just like so many others and I don't buy into the idea that they control everything, there are many centers of evil power in the world, some in alignment with Israel others in opposition. It is my experience that all politicians are untrustworthy, evil scum regardless of the nation, platform or declared ideology. In the end anyone with the desire to rule over others is evil, they see other humans as beneath them and so have no moral issue with killing them. BDS is rather toothless, war will be waged regardless of the peoples actions or choices. Look to the article we are commenting beneath as a perfect example. The attacks in Syria are illegal, have been illegal from the very start. It wasn't the peoples voice speaking out that stopped the Syrian war, it was a competent enemy entering the battle field that made the difference.
I never said Israel controls everything. The U.S. is not "everything", nor is its government. However, it is masturbating our elections. Elections don't change policy; they affect them. Obviously. Look at the recent turn-about at the CDC (admittedly law suits are quite effective too). If you vote for Trump and he puts a couple dick wads onto the Supreme Court and they change established law I would say elections do change policy. If you vote for Reagan and he decimates the public school system and college financial aid system as he had already done in his home state, I'd say your vote does change policy. In the long-run, a vote for Reagan made a vote for Trump possible because if the under 50 year old population had not learned history according to Reagan maybe they would have been inoculated against such an incredibly stupid and incompetent, narcissistic and poorly educated psychopath as Trump.
U.S. support of Israel has been at the root of many problems in today's world, dating back to WWI at the very least.
Nope, multiple studies show that which party wins an election has zero impact on policy even over time because policy is implemented by the unelected bureaucrats.
I find you to be naive and ignorant to think that any one politician runs the nation, it is the simpleton that believes the political party propaganda. I couldn't care less about Trump or Obama or Biden or any other figureheads in the cult of personality. They don't run the nation, they tell the electorate what the owners of the nation have decided. The CFR is much more powerful than the president, the CIA/DIA/NSA start wars, presidents just take credit and play cheerleader to the populace.
Trump was part of the plan, he was promoted to provide the Emmanuel Goldstien that the party needs so badly and you are nothing more than a good lower party member performing your daily hate ritual.
We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false - William Casey CIA 1984
I'll agree with you if you are comparing Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. But there's a reason AIPAC spends so much money bribing officials. This is an oligarchy, always has been. JFK was not Nixon. And Bernie Sanders wasn't Donald Trump. They might have eaten him alive, but he was (and is) genuine in his beliefs. Of course, AIPAC wanted Bernie out so out he went. Funny how that happens. And if you believe it was the Black vote (12% of the population, including children too young to vote and the disaffected who don't vote at all) that swung the primary, I have a bridge to sell you.
Haven't heard Bill Casey's name in a long time so I looked him up on Wikipedia to refresh my memory (so many CIA directors come and gone) and found this, which kind of contradicts your quote, I think:
"Despite Casey's background in intelligence, the position was not his first choice; according to Rhoda Koenig, he only agreed to take the appointment after being assured that "he could have a hand in shaping foreign policy rather than simply reporting the data on which it was based."[6] Breaking precedent, Reagan elevated the role to a Cabinet-level position for the duration of Casey's appointment.[16]
[...]
"Casey oversaw the re-expansion of the Intelligence Community to funding and human resource levels greater than those existing before the preceding Carter Administration; in particular, he increased levels within the CIA. During his tenure, post-Watergate and Church Committee restrictions were controversially lifted on the use of the CIA to directly and covertly influence the internal and foreign affairs of countries relevant to American policy.
This period of the Cold War saw an increase in the Agency's global, anti-Soviet activities, which started under the Carter Doctrine in late 1980.
Iran–Contra affair
Plaque honoring Casey located in the CIA New Headquarters Building lobby.
Casey was suspected, by some, of involvement with the controversial Iran-Contra affair, in which Reagan administration personnel secretly traded arms to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and secretly diverted some of the resulting income to aid the rebel Contras in Nicaragua, in violation of U.S. law. Casey was called to testify before Congress about his knowledge of the affair. On 15 December 1986, one day before Casey was scheduled to testify before Congress, Casey suffered two seizures and was hospitalized. Three days later, Casey underwent surgery for a previously undiagnosed brain tumor.[1][2][3][4][7][18] While hospitalized, Casey died less than 24 hours after former colleague Richard Secord testified that Casey supported the illegal aiding of the Contras.[1][2][3][18] "
Note the part where he wanted to be involved in policy-making and Reagan "elevated" that position for Casey's term. He was not elected. But Reagan/Bush were (though they should have been tried for treason--they made a deal with Khomeini not to release the hostages until Inauguration Day so that Reagan would be assured of winning and Carter wouldn't have a second term). Lucky Casey kicked the bucket when he did! What a coincidence!! This piece does not mention the conspiracy, cooked up by Israel, between the U.S. and Israel to keep Iraq and Iran in an 8-year war in an effort to weaken both countries. That started in 1980. The Iran-Contra deal was only part of it. FYI, Israel provided secret support to Iran and bombed Iraq's nuclear facilities with U.S. approval. The U.S. supported Iraq. Much as I dislike anyone related to the CIA, Bill Casey was not Stansfield Turner just as Carter was not Reagan. Carter was very poorly advised. I actually knew people in the CIA involved in these actions from the Johnson Admin through Carter. What is your personal experience with all of this? What part of this disreputable country's history are you an eyewitness to?
I'm happy to I perform my lowly services so well though hate isn't in my job description. Don't know how young you are but I don't know anyone who believed a word Casey said.
What exactly is your point? That we are all helpless babes in the cradle who have no voice in the matter so it doesn't matter what happens outside our nursery (or outside our diapers), perhaps?
Eisenhower did not support U.S. support of Israel. Forrestal advised strongly against it and, another lovely little coincidence, "jumped" from his office window at the State Department the next day. If you believe that "suicide", I've got another bridge to sell you. Lots of bridges leading to nowhere.
While we're on the topic of which candidate wins an election not mattering, please elucidate on why JFK was assassinated. Inquiring minds want to know!
The horrible foreign policy decisions always seem to be made by those who have American/Israeli citizenship. These horrible decisions are also destroying America and most of the West. We really need to ask, 'what is their real agenda?'
Some are neither Jewish nor particularly Zionist. The neo-cons I think were just drunk on power and money. The Zionists seem to want what they call "Greater Israel" which includes most of the Middle East. Certainly including Syria, Iraq, Iran, Jordan and possibly parts of Egypt. They keep stealing land from others, and of course ultimately I think they want to wipe Palestinians from the face of the earth. "Never again," don't cha know? Deep down, I don't think they know who they are and are happy to take on someone else's identity and misappropriate their culture. I am referring primarily to Ashkenazi who are not related to Biblical Jews unless they married in very recently.
It's all so unbelievably evil and stupid, but the topper is, so many Americans simply are incapable of thinking of their country as the bad guy. The US has protected al Qaeda, ISIL and other terrorist groups, and still do: they come in so useful for the dirty work, and the blame. And the rare attack on the Homeland is to remind US citizens the bad guys are always after the good guys, them: so Homeland Security and billion a year on defence is perfectly reasonable and absolutely necessary. And what has Iran ever done to Israel ? Looks like these countries' leaders have fallen into the looking glass and can't find their way back. Maybe the looming serious austerity on top of - austerity - might blow a hole through that looking glass: Fancy, grandiose lexicon and pretzel logic don't work so well on exhausted, worried, hungry people.
Attacks on the US homeland? Then why was coverage of the balloon (Fu-Go) attacks suppressed? That allowed 6 naive people to get killed on Gearheart Mountain near Bly, Oregon. (9-11 was an inside job.)
Some attacks are more noteworthy than others. My views on 9/11 could get me arrested, so, don't go there. I'm talking about presumed al Qaeda, ISIL attacks, as in Boston Marathon and France. These attackers enter highly bureaucratized , monitored countries, do their dirty work and then leave - with no trace. Spirit people. A mystery no one shows much curiosity about. No one else could possibly get away with it. Not on their own.
While I don't know as the Tsarnaev brothers "left", we'll have to tacitly agree as to what could get us arrested. I still wonder if Professor Steven Jones may be a deliberate patsy in a distraction ploy. He refuses to respond to my inquiries.
most terrorist groups including azov nazies were created by the zionists one way or another. most turned their weapons around in time, too. that never stops the zionists from creating more: while humanity end up mopping the blood up, they steal and loot with abandon and move on to the next target.
It's all one big joke isn't it, WMD's in Iraq & chemical weapons in syria, terrorists in Afghanistan & nukes in Iran & this ukraine nonsense, Agenda 21/30 & the NWO depopulation through Covid 19 jabs, isn't it time that people woke up to what is going on
Yeh, lots of fraud. However "Genocide against the Salt Marsh Arabs" was real, but it happened much later than claimed by the USA. It was carried out by the USA, who supplied Chemcial Ali with chemical weapons and targeting intelligence. Together with Israel technology help, they turned the Salt Marshes into a outdoor death camp, after the Salt Marsh Arabs had outlived their usefulness in 1st Gulf War. Same group who's now telling us China is using genocide policies on it's Muslims in the North East and idiots still believe them. It works.
It seems like the US is still in Pre-Kindergarten: "Now, now, US! You can't take Syria's toys away just because you want them. You have to ask nicely. And if Syria doesn't want to give you its toys, you need to go back into your corner and find something else to play with."
Last I looked, the US Constitution allocates the war power exclusively to Congress.
Biden is now stoking war with Russia, China, and now Iran and waging war elsewhere.
Blinken is incapable of diplomacy.
Congress, particularly the Democrats, are competing to be even more aggressive warmongers. An asshole right wing Governor from a pissant state like Indiana is allowed to "commit" US forces to war in Taiwan.
My experience is the American oligarchy misread disgust for hate, cognitive dissonance is very useful in flipping the mental scrip. If it was that much hate, then it would be impossible for Americans (and Canadians) to go anywhere overseas or even over the southern border.
Biden is just another in a long line of compromised slaves to parasitical, and criminal Zionist/Globalist interests. No congressional approval was needed as so many congressmen and women as well as Senators are also compromised. America is not a republic. It is a crumbling empire and the laughing stock of the world. Unfortunately, their doubling down on imperial ambition will cause much destruction and chaos before they inevitably fall.
pull the curtain back, find the same culprits every time. for the same agenda. using the same methods. self-defense is terrorism, defend democracy through coups. freedom needs censorship. usurious loans help you. this miracle of vaccine messes your immune system but you should take it for others. man can be woman too. sanctions are for human rights. denuke yourself so that we can bomb and colonize you. the list is getting longer by the hour.
I want to vomit every time I hear about some "veteran who served and protected the nation while in the military". Fucking "protected" many thousands of miles away.
The amount of hypocrisy in the US is astounding. And it infected all the western "democracies". Or vice versa. The bottom line is the west is rotten to the core.
Yes, I throw up a little in my mouth whenever I hear that.
Japan too. R&R in Okinawa stands for rage and rape, and Tokyo likes it that way. Keeps the Ryukyu occupied for "free".
Worse, it's often put as protecting our right to free speech.
Nope. That's mainly a bunch of lawyers, not soldiers.
You frequently hear from veterans of the war of 1812, or even of Pancho Villa's attacks?
Wow, impressive. Do you hang out with Cher and Tina Turner?
Eh? Cher and Tina Turner served and protected the nation while in the military? Did any still-living veterans do that?
You mean shakng their ass protected the troops?
I meant none save those in the War of 1812, and possibly the Pancho Villa raids, did that. If anything, the military left Americans sitting ducks to Japanese balloon bombs.
Veterans are high priced military hit men for the bankng oligarchy dynasty family's. Anything else is the propaganda bμll sh¡t the establishment blows up the a$$ of the gulible proletariat

We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false - William Casey CIA 1984
I'll agree with you if you are comparing Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. But there's a reason AIPAC spends so much money bribing officials. This is an oligarchy, always has been. JFK was not Nixon. And Bernie Sanders wasn't Donald Trump. They might have eaten him alive, but he was (and is) genuine in his beliefs. Of course, AIPAC wanted Bernie out so out he went. Funny how that happens. And if you believe it was the Black vote (12% of the population, including children too young to vote and the disaffected who don't vote at all) that swung the primary, I have a bridge to sell you.
Haven't heard Bill Casey's name in a long time so I looked him up on Wikipedia to refresh my memory (so many CIA directors come and gone) and found this, which kind of contradicts your quote, I think:
"Despite Casey's background in intelligence, the position was not his first choice; according to Rhoda Koenig, he only agreed to take the appointment after being assured that "he could have a hand in shaping foreign policy rather than simply reporting the data on which it was based."[6] Breaking precedent, Reagan elevated the role to a Cabinet-level position for the duration of Casey's appointment.[16]
[...]
"Casey oversaw the re-expansion of the Intelligence Community to funding and human resource levels greater than those existing before the preceding Carter Administration; in particular, he increased levels within the CIA. During his tenure, post-Watergate and Church Committee restrictions were controversially lifted on the use of the CIA to directly and covertly influence the internal and foreign affairs of countries relevant to American policy.
This period of the Cold War saw an increase in the Agency's global, anti-Soviet activities, which started under the Carter Doctrine in late 1980.
Iran–Contra affair
Plaque honoring Casey located in the CIA New Headquarters Building lobby.
Casey was suspected, by some, of involvement with the controversial Iran-Contra affair, in which Reagan administration personnel secretly traded arms to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and secretly diverted some of the resulting income to aid the rebel Contras in Nicaragua, in violation of U.S. law. Casey was called to testify before Congress about his knowledge of the affair. On 15 December 1986, one day before Casey was scheduled to testify before Congress, Casey suffered two seizures and was hospitalized. Three days later, Casey underwent surgery for a previously undiagnosed brain tumor.[1][2][3][4][7][18] While hospitalized, Casey died less than 24 hours after former colleague Richard Secord testified that Casey supported the illegal aiding of the Contras.[1][2][3][18] "
Note the part where he wanted to be involved in policy-making and Reagan "elevated" that position for Casey's term. He was not elected. But Reagan/Bush were (though they should have been tried for treason--they made a deal with Khomeini not to release the hostages until Inauguration Day so that Reagan would be assured of winning and Carter wouldn't have a second term). Lucky Casey kicked the bucket when he did! What a coincidence!! This piece does not mention the conspiracy, cooked up by Israel, between the U.S. and Israel to keep Iraq and Iran in an 8-year war in an effort to weaken both countries. That started in 1980. The Iran-Contra deal was only part of it. FYI, Israel provided secret support to Iran and bombed Iraq's nuclear facilities with U.S. approval. The U.S. supported Iraq. Much as I dislike anyone related to the CIA, Bill Casey was not Stansfield Turner just as Carter was not Reagan. Carter was very poorly advised. I actually knew people in the CIA involved in these actions from the Johnson Admin through Carter. What is your personal experience with all of this? What part of this disreputable country's history are you an eyewitness to?
I'm happy to I perform my lowly services so well though hate isn't in my job description. Don't know how young you are but I don't know anyone who believed a word Casey said.
What exactly is your point? That we are all helpless babes in the cradle who have no voice in the matter so it doesn't matter what happens outside our nursery (or outside our diapers), perhaps?
Eisenhower did not support U.S. support of Israel. Forrestal advised strongly against it and, another lovely little coincidence, "jumped" from his office window at the State Department the next day. If you believe that "suicide", I've got another bridge to sell you. Lots of bridges leading to nowhere.
While we're on the topic of which candidate wins an election not mattering, please elucidate on why JFK was assassinated. Inquiring minds want to know!
The horrible foreign policy decisions always seem to be made by those who have American/Israeli citizenship. These horrible decisions are also destroying America and most of the West. We really need to ask, 'what is their real agenda?'
Some are neither Jewish nor particularly Zionist. The neo-cons I think were just drunk on power and money. The Zionists seem to want what they call "Greater Israel" which includes most of the Middle East. Certainly including Syria, Iraq, Iran, Jordan and possibly parts of Egypt. They keep stealing land from others, and of course ultimately I think they want to wipe Palestinians from the face of the earth. "Never again," don't cha know? Deep down, I don't think they know who they are and are happy to take on someone else's identity and misappropriate their culture. I am referring primarily to Ashkenazi who are not related to Biblical Jews unless they married in very recently.
It's all so unbelievably evil and stupid, but the topper is, so many Americans simply are incapable of thinking of their country as the bad guy. The US has protected al Qaeda, ISIL and other terrorist groups, and still do: they come in so useful for the dirty work, and the blame. And the rare attack on the Homeland is to remind US citizens the bad guys are always after the good guys, them: so Homeland Security and billion a year on defence is perfectly reasonable and absolutely necessary. And what has Iran ever done to Israel ? Looks like these countries' leaders have fallen into the looking glass and can't find their way back. Maybe the looming serious austerity on top of - austerity - might blow a hole through that looking glass: Fancy, grandiose lexicon and pretzel logic don't work so well on exhausted, worried, hungry people.
Attacks on the US homeland? Then why was coverage of the balloon (Fu-Go) attacks suppressed? That allowed 6 naive people to get killed on Gearheart Mountain near Bly, Oregon. (9-11 was an inside job.)
Some attacks are more noteworthy than others. My views on 9/11 could get me arrested, so, don't go there. I'm talking about presumed al Qaeda, ISIL attacks, as in Boston Marathon and France. These attackers enter highly bureaucratized , monitored countries, do their dirty work and then leave - with no trace. Spirit people. A mystery no one shows much curiosity about. No one else could possibly get away with it. Not on their own.
While I don't know as the Tsarnaev brothers "left", we'll have to tacitly agree as to what could get us arrested. I still wonder if Professor Steven Jones may be a deliberate patsy in a distraction ploy. He refuses to respond to my inquiries.
most terrorist groups including azov nazies were created by the zionists one way or another. most turned their weapons around in time, too. that never stops the zionists from creating more: while humanity end up mopping the blood up, they steal and loot with abandon and move on to the next target.
It's all one big joke isn't it, WMD's in Iraq & chemical weapons in syria, terrorists in Afghanistan & nukes in Iran & this ukraine nonsense, Agenda 21/30 & the NWO depopulation through Covid 19 jabs, isn't it time that people woke up to what is going on
Yeh, lots of fraud. However "Genocide against the Salt Marsh Arabs" was real, but it happened much later than claimed by the USA. It was carried out by the USA, who supplied Chemcial Ali with chemical weapons and targeting intelligence. Together with Israel technology help, they turned the Salt Marshes into a outdoor death camp, after the Salt Marsh Arabs had outlived their usefulness in 1st Gulf War. Same group who's now telling us China is using genocide policies on it's Muslims in the North East and idiots still believe them. It works.
My take on this without any proof is Russia is going after us of Arrogance where she can. Without much geopolitical repurcuss relatively.
Or maybe that's my hope...
That's right,
I hope the illegal us occupy of globe ends , as it shall
It seems like the US is still in Pre-Kindergarten: "Now, now, US! You can't take Syria's toys away just because you want them. You have to ask nicely. And if Syria doesn't want to give you its toys, you need to go back into your corner and find something else to play with."
Last I looked, the US Constitution allocates the war power exclusively to Congress.
Biden is now stoking war with Russia, China, and now Iran and waging war elsewhere.
Blinken is incapable of diplomacy.
Congress, particularly the Democrats, are competing to be even more aggressive warmongers. An asshole right wing Governor from a pissant state like Indiana is allowed to "commit" US forces to war in Taiwan.
The press and liberals cheer.
Insanity all around
If they hate us, I am only surprised that they do not hate us more.
My experience is the American oligarchy misread disgust for hate, cognitive dissonance is very useful in flipping the mental scrip. If it was that much hate, then it would be impossible for Americans (and Canadians) to go anywhere overseas or even over the southern border.
"misread disgust for hate" - likely even on purpose, so the "serve and protect" mantra could be applied efficiently.
Biden is just another in a long line of compromised slaves to parasitical, and criminal Zionist/Globalist interests. No congressional approval was needed as so many congressmen and women as well as Senators are also compromised. America is not a republic. It is a crumbling empire and the laughing stock of the world. Unfortunately, their doubling down on imperial ambition will cause much destruction and chaos before they inevitably fall.

big pharma kills and injures hundreds of thousands with their covid clot shots...while the media either ignores or censors this GLOBAL atrocity...https://healthimpactnews.com/2022/you-are-25x-more-likely-to-be-injured-and-20x-more-likely-to-die-if-you-get-the-covid-shot/
pull the curtain back, find the same culprits every time. for the same agenda. using the same methods. self-defense is terrorism, defend democracy through coups. freedom needs censorship. usurious loans help you. this miracle of vaccine messes your immune system but you should take it for others. man can be woman too. sanctions are for human rights. denuke yourself so that we can bomb and colonize you. the list is getting longer by the hour.
We do what we are told. Free thinking not allowed. That is everywhere, in all countries. If we don't behave we get crushed.
Stand with Syria !!
