Ut-oh, is this the start of positioning to blame others for bad news that’s coming?

You are anti-Trump, are totally into the Forever War, and you love Pedo Joe.

Uh, no I am not actually into "Forever War," BUT I am into defeating deranged tyrants with delusions of recapturing former glory and territories NOW so that my kids won't have to do it in 3-5 years.

And I despise "Pedo Joe" as much as anybody else around here.

However, it's better to let the Ukrainians fight with our weapons and munitions in Ukraine than us having to do it ourselves in Germany and Poland or the Baltics in a few years.

As for Trump, yeah, I detest the guy personally, but I agreed with a lot of his policies, believe it or not, especially those that were pro-business and anti-illegal alien (build the wall!), and in greasing terrorists like Soleimani wherever we find them.

Ironically, the article right above this one talked about how Yuma AZ is collapsing under the weight of massive illegal migration.

Someone should tell this @sshole that while he meddles in, and pours money and lives into useless wars thousands of miles away, there’s a real invasion happening right here in America.

They’re coming out with a movie starring Bolton: Desperately Seeking Relevancy.

Let me guess: it was ‘incredibly disappointing’; said it in the headline and four times in the first paragraph. If this is AI I don’t think we have too much to worry about, at least in Newcastle writing

"Maybe Germany wants to use its tanks to defend Germany. What’s wrong with that."

I'd be reluctant to send them Abrams tanks if I believed demRATs wouldn't replace the domestic inventory.

You wont have to worry

Soon the Military Industrial Complex will be replaced by the Medical Industrial Complex and you can get your "fighting for your freedom" fix by taking a jab instead of sending the kids off to die,

Fighting to keep gas prices high by doing the IMF and OPEC's dirty work will be a thing of the past, killing anyone who tries to get around the IMF devaluing their currency will no longer be necessary.

You don’t believe in “fighting for your freedom?”

Wait a sec... I’ve read the headline, I’ve read the article posted, and I’ve read the comments. I just need to be clear on one thing... Does it seem that Bolton is incredibly disappointed?

And when this Ukraine proxy war drags on for 20+ years and ends in no gains for America then you will be the first idiot screaming for the next installment of the Forever War. Pathetic.

“The hesitation to greenlight the tanks indicates that a “sea change” in Germany’s defense policy “needs to happen,” Bolton said.”

So, now the neocons will seek regime change in Germany?

I know there’ll be dozens here on FR that support that too.

Effin’ scumbags.

That guy is a loud mouth.

He fits the exact description of the jerk which is very supportive of every war including Vietnam, but did all he could to avoid being in the military himself even when his nation had a draft and lottery number did get called up, i.e. student deferments and then enlist in the air national guard.

A lawyer and essentially career politician that never had a real civilian productive job.

There is a trend. Many of the WORST leaders you will ever find in government are career politicians with a law degree, i.e. Clinton, Biden, Bolton, Schumer... And this trend is international!!! If you look at Germany, the UK, Australia it’s the same thing. The Germans had Gerhard Schroeder, the “visionary” which got the Germans hooked on Russian gas, had economic malaise, a dwindling German military... but if you talked about his hair he would sue you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerhard_Schr%C3%B6der

Lawyers that are career politicians: they are the types which do a great job at selling themselves, who can manipulate and use psychology, give a good speech, and legally screw someone up, they are often great at political maneuvering and socially savvy, but they are no leaders themselves. It’s actually a negative when I hear someone is a career politician and has a law degree that wants my vote.

He should retire and write a book about what a great guy he is and stab everyone in the back he don’t like... that’s what all other politicians with a law degree like him do.

If you think these wars like Korea Vietnam or Iraq or Ukraine were about "fighting for your freedom" or anyone's freedom for that matter, then you are seriously deluded and mesmerized by propaganda, It is exactly the opposite, so there is no point in further discussion.

Politics has always been a game of Mass Psychosis delusion in order to trick people into submission and join their army to go kill the other guy and take their stuff or just for something to do to flex the power muscle and tell them what their money is worth

It is comforting to believe that "fighting for your freedom" reciruitment slogan though

kinda like believing the police are here to "protect and serve" you (and not just the government)

So what part of Germany’s energy policy under Merkel was NOT wrong?

Commercial ties between countries helps ensure there will be no war.

Hey-hey! The warmonger has a lot of support from the FR neocon brigade.

Germany listened to the US and stuck it’s nose in the Ukraine mess created by Obama and BiteMe and now they are paying for it.
