I’m old enough to remember when Democrats pretended to be in favor of peace. – The Biden administration is already well down the road in its campaign to put an end to all the peace that broke out all over the Middle East during the Donald Trump presidency. China Joe hadn’t been installed in the Oval Office for more than 48 hours before he ordered thousands of additional U.S. military personnel to move into hot spots in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, as he and his handlers prepare to restart wars without end and revive the fortunes of the military/industrial complex that Eisenhower warned us about and Trump had done so much to neuter.
The Biden war buildup continued this week with new arms sales to the governments of Chile and Egypt, despite the latter’s horrible record on human rights abuses. Unsurprisingly, the arms sales benefit weapons maker Raytheon, in which China Joe’s new Secretary of Defense owns $1.7 million in stock, which he was supposed to have already divested but of course has not done so.

From a story at Al Jazeera:
The United States approved an arms sale worth nearly $200m to Egypt but vowed to press human rights issues after an American activist reported his family had been harassed.
The Biden administration – which has vowed to end support for Saudi Arabia’s offensive operations in Yemen’s devastating war and is reviewing a major jet sale to the United Arab Emirates – said it approved the sale of 168 tactical missiles to Egypt.
The $197m sale of the Raytheon-made Rolling Airframe Missiles was requested by the Egyptian navy to improve defence in coastal areas and around the Red Sea, the US Department of State said.
The department said in a statement it approved the sale, subject to congressional review, as Egypt “continues to be an important strategic partner in the Middle East”.
Biden has vowed a tougher stance on human rights after his predecessor Donald Trump courted Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, whom he reportedly called “my favourite dictator”, in part for his cooperation with Israel.

If you are a parent with military-age children, you might want to start educating them about what is happening here. This is just the beginning of a new buildup to re-establish the Middle East as a theater for U.S. intervention into civil wars and conflicts between nations that have largely had their militaries armed by either the U.S., Russia or China. Proxy wars designed mainly to be used as tests for military preparedness and new weapons systems.
The Biden effort to kill the U.S. domestic oil and gas industry is also a big part of this, designed to intentionally make our country more dependent on the Middle East for oil resources and establish the rationale for intervention into what are largely civil conflicts. The inevitable return to this kind of interventionist foreign policy is perhaps the single most tragic consequence of the theft of the 2020 election. The irony is that it will be the college-aged dupes who voted in such large percentages for Biden who will be shipping over to these war-torn areas and returning with missing limbs or in body bags, all so the warmongering politicians in DC can continue to personally profit from the military/industrial complex.
That’s the truth, and we should not be shy about saying it.
That is all.

Drone strikes for fun and profit
President Le Petomane isn’t deciding anything.
When my son joined the Army in 2000 I told him about the dangers of globalism and America’s part in that role with interventionism. One year later 9-11 happened and he was deployed with the 82nd to Afghanistan and Iraq the following year. I knew the dangers that our soldiers were put in by these policies but I had to support him to keep his moral up. At least the rules of engagement were common sense in those days but nowadays,fuggetaboutit.
And Liz Cheney and Linda Graham are excited.
The more American death, the more excited they get.
Biden doesn’t even know what day it is. The cabal that is behind him needs to be shut down. Name them. Confront them. Just like Mad Maxine said. No peace for the wicked.
What we may expect for the term of the regime of Harris/Biden:
Endless little brushfire wars, with ridiculous “rules of engagement”, assuring that the shooting continues for many months, with inconclusive outcome or by retreat of the US forces in ignominy.
What should be done:
If you get in, smack the opposition as flat as a cookie, declare victory, and get out. No nation-building, no foreign aid until the defeated enemy has fled altogether, and continue to stand offshore so the situation is under scrutiny against any relapses.
I was wondering why all of my (conservative-leaning) financial newsletters say to hang on to and even increase purchases of defense stocks.
They’ve done well for me b/c as one of the letters said: “The U.S. is in a perpetual state of war with no end in sight.”
Especially now with Biden as illegitimate POTUS.
Our VA hospitals should continue to be full for the foreseeable future.
Not a fan of Nixon, but it is strange that he took the blame for Vietnam since it was a Kennedy-Johnson build up to war.
