Given who the ship is named for, it has a high standard to live up to.

My prediction is that Yemen will eventually overthrow the House of Saud. Yemen looks like a rising power to me, like Japan in the late 1800s. Saudi Arabia has an old and decrepit political system, like China in the late 1800s.

Iran could have been our ally, except for bleeping Jimmuh Carter. Never forget that.

Yeah, nice logic there. Not getting in the middle of wars thousands of miles away is “surrender.” How about we mind our own business?

And, tough guy, why aren’t you there with your rifle fighting the bad guys?

Oh, you want someone else to do it for you.

Trump kept the order that the Neocons don’t want to keep they want to provoke countries push them to war.

Biden is in bed with them.

That’s right! You’re either for forever war or you’re a Russian Stooge. This is some very smart analysis.

My guess is you wholeheartedly agreed with GW Bush when he declared “You’re either with us (me and my administration) or with the Terrorists.”

You exhibit signs of having a very low IQ, in that anyone who disagrees with you must very obviously be a part of the group of people you hate.

How many simultaneous wars do you NeoCons want to fight ?

-Taiwan
-North Korea
-Yemen
-Iran
-Syria
-Lebanon
-Gaza
-Kosovo
-Kaliningrad
-Georgia
-Belarus
-Ukraine
-Niger
-Sudan
-Venezuela

The one arguable is attacking the Mexico Cartels, since they have organized ~10 million illegals across that border since 2021.

Except any such action is guaranteed to create even more massive refugees across the border (maybe that is the plan)
