Its not the Democrats or the Republicans or the Left or the Right controlling these foreign matters. You are correct when you say that “There is something more than meets the eye behind this never-ending extension of our military.” The two Parties are just a front for the real behind-the-scenes efforts. This work has been established and ongoing for a long time.
If what you are referring to ties into globalism, the new world order, one world government, etc, I totally agree.
We’re broke. Our might and manufacturing are in China thanks to both Parties and MFN for China and NAFTA. Our leaders did it to us. The economy and our GDP that were once made up of US corporations employing Americans making real stuff.
Then it all went elsewhere and in its place came money shufflers on Wall St making deals and funny financial products CMOs, CDSs, CDOs etc. They made a personal killing and then they went broke, and then they made another killing thanks to our bailout, and the Fed.. The banksters have the money and we got the debt.
Like Glenn Beck says the banksters continue to perpetrate the biggest heist ever and they aren’t done yet. They want our pensions, but first they want our firearms.
We still have our big stick and our leaders like to show their bluster by using it foolishly. When we had a big economy the world respected us for our technological ability. We did big stuff. For what was done to the USA under the guise of globalism there should be a number of members of Congress and Presidents serving long sentences in Leavenworth
Their job was to defend the real USA economy and its borders and the traitors did neither and now it is coming home to roost.
