I’m strongly opposed to the continued massive funding of the US military.

The Founding Fathers knew the dangers of standing armies.

Of all the world's advanced,civilized nations there's one that can absolutely be called the most peaceful,stable and orderly one. That nation is Japan.It's about 98.5% purely Japanese and most of the rest are ethnic Koreans (Japan and Korea have a history going back thousands of years). It is almost impossible for a non-Japanese person to be granted residency there...let alone citizenship.

All human beings...of every race/ethnicity/nationality...prefer their own kind. The only reason why non Europeans want to settle here...and in Europe...is prosperity. They have no desire to become Americans...Canadians...Brits...Germans,etc.

Ethnically pure nation states are a fairly recent development in Europe.

Up until 1918, Europe was largely comprised of multi-ethnic states, including the British, French, German, Austro-Hungarian, Russian and Ottoman Empires. Even Italy can be considered multi-ethnic, with Lombardy and Sicily being quite different.

Nationalism was an outcome of the degenerating Austro-Hungarian Empire with the various ethnic populations from Czechs to Serbs developing their identities during the last half of the 19th Century. Zionism as a Jewish nationalism was one component of this movement.

Nationalism was brought to full flower by the idiot Woodrow Wilson and his insistence on self-determination by ethnic groups.
