I think China is a paper tiger and who the hell is this “Socrates”?

"Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the state of war between the United States and [ENEMY] is hereby formally declared; and the President is hereby authorized and directed to employ the entire naval and military forces of the United States and the resources of the Government to carry on war against [ENEMY] and, to bring the conflict to a successful termination, all the resources of the country are hereby pledged by the Congress of the United States."
“In the 22 years that he has been in power, he has neither tried to re-establish communism nor has he sought to retake the old Soviet states like Poland, the Czech Republic, or even Ukraine.”
Well, he is currently attempting to conquer Ukraine and failing, but of course he hasn’t attempted to retake Poland or Bohemia, because he can’t fight NATO. And he has invaded what, a half dozen of the weaker former Soviet states already? That’s a pretty damning track record for someone who supposedly has no interest in reconquering former Soviet territory.
Winning or loosing may be irrelevant. Either way the defense industry gets the orders for weapons and equipment needed to keep them in business. Maybe not the number one reason we do what we do, but it certainly plays into the mix.
And how does the convicted felon plan to monetize THIS bit of “advice”?
So Martin is channeling Greek philosophers now? This guy is a whack-a-doodle.
The United States lost World War II. Anyone who thinks otherwise is lying to themselves.
RE: As every one since WWII
1. Since WW II when did we ever officially declare war?
2. Was Desert Storm ( as an example ) a loss? Was the destruction of ISIS?
Was the Cold War a loss?
Neocon bump for later....
“While these neocons only focus on war, they are destroying the United States economy.”

Who’d-a-thunk-it!
Now Nukes are no longer a deterrent when you are playing with nuclear powers. They have used Ukraine as cannon fodder to weaken Russia and they hope they can then invade under any excuse and conquer Russia, which has been their end goal for decades.We've never wanted to conquer Russia, and still don't.[...]
I am flabbergasted by some of these Neocons and their sheet hatred of the Russian people...
And we don't hate the Russian people. During the Cold War we saw them as just as much victims of the Nomenclatura as the Hungarians or the Czechs. Now, in the post-Soviet world, we still see them as victims of Putin and his kleptocrats.
We're not going to go in and free them, burned keep hoping they'll eventually manage to free themselves.
Martin Armstrong is a paranoid Russian kook
Winning wars is simply not on the program.
We've pushed Russia into an alliance with China. The dollar is now in peril as the world's reserve currency as is the petrodollar.
Stolen elections and allowing globalists to have control of our government is a disaster of the people of this country.
See most retarded article. Oh Armstrong. Lol
The sad fact is that all we have to do is cut all economic ties with China. Period. Full stop.
It would wreck their economy and it would harm ours, but in reality it would be cheaper and not costs the lives of our young people like an all-out war would.
We could even force Europe to cut ties OR we could offset the costs to us by leaving NATO if they refused. Harsh? Probably, but what are tens or hundreds of thousands of our young people worth to us?
We don’t have to “fight” China. We have a certain remedy that will wreck them and there is only one flawed individual with a chance of being in charge that understands this. Trump.
Desert Storm was an unparalleled Victory. I was there.
“Why America Will Lose this War As every one Since WWII”
The moment that our ‘sanctions’ failed, we lost the war. The rest is just mopping up by Russia.
But in the end it’s a good thing, as the Neocons were NEVER going to get Ukraine, particularly Crimea, without a nuclear response to deal with.
Wait...we won in Grenada (1983) and Panama (1989).
