It is interesting. Note how mattis is coming out now about putting america last..paraphrasing him
Hope we don’t get Obama term 3.
The CIA also has the support of people like the so-called “Mad Dog” Mattis (I believe he gave himself the nickname as he is suspected of being gay and doesn’t want to publicly admit it); Romney, Liz Cheney and GW and Jeb Bush (none of whom, nor any of their children, served in a foreign Mideast conflict or other war but are huge advocates of others doing so at their bidding); and the 20 percent of the population that considers itself “elite” (which means they will profit from the terror scare and the endless wars but almost invariably, have neither themselves nor relatives been involved in actually fighting them. As in Jennifer Rubin, John Bolton, George Will (together with his ill-fitting toupee), William Kristol, and most of the writers at National Review.
I think it would be an excellent idea for Glenn to send this off to Tucker Carlson.
Endless wars are not only profitable for the elites, but allow deflection of public anger from the elites to “the enemy”, and when that is insufficient, the people are singled out as “the enemy”. It’s primitive, it’s tribal, it’s very 1984.
Thank you for posting.
Donald Trump has enormous courage - especially when we remember JFK.
