Our weapons stockpiles are now dangerously low

You keep saying you don't want war, so why do you care?

Remember the adage coined by Trotsky that you may not be interested in war but war is interested in you? Of course I don't want a war - what rational person would? That does not mean we won't have one though. In fact, the less prepared you are to fight a war the more likely you will get one as enemies sense your weakness. Sic Vis Pacem, Para Bellum.

Leftists have wrecked the US Military. Our weapons stockpiles are now dangerously low - for good measure Biden has run down our strategic oil reserve as well.

There is another way the Left has wrecked the military: the quality of general officers and senior executives is probably the worst it's ever been. Because these positions are hand-picked, instead of through a centralized board, it's easier to discriminate, so instead of selecting someone based on talent and achievement, "other factors" are involved. The average FReeper who posts regularly on Ukraine threads (to include the Freeper neocons) is following the Ukraine war more closely than the average service executive these days. And war is supposed to be their business.

“You keep saying you don’t want war, so why do you care?”

I ceertainly do not want war, however there is only Peace through Strength. The slogan of the now ‘obsolete’ SAC.
The first incident that comes to mind as a reminder of what happens when a nation grows complacent & neglects it’s military is: December 7, 1941.

Normal people don’t want war. They also don’t want the government to go messing in other people’s countries across the globe and getting us into wars that should be the business of some other entity.

Needless war is so unpopular in the US that they have now used the bodies of Ukes and the Ukes get to die to advance their cause in taking over Russia. It is really quite sickening.

Neocons have no respect for other countries sovereignty. They have no respect and do not care about US sovereignty either because their desire is to take over and run everyone else’s countries under the banner of a world government run by them.

Maybe because he's afraid Biden is going to get us in a war whether we want one or not.
