I agree with him.

Military industrial complex must need more profits and armchair warriors are getting bored.

Besides another catastrophic occupation would hurt Trump so many would be happy.

And people who love playing soldier like to see the real thing sometimes even though the real bullets won’t be sending them home with a destroyed brain or arm or leg.

We NEVER, EVER, EVER learn.

Vietnam, Iraq, the 17 year war in Afghanistan...we just never learn.

Some people just hear what they want to hear. I had that retarded baboon GWB pegged at least 5 years before most Freepers realized he was a globalist fraud. Some of his apologists apparently feel safe enough to crawl out from under their rocks right now.

I don’t disagree, I just think he shut the hell up...

He doesn’t have to give his opinion, unless he really needs the attention...

It seems we have UN learned what we knew to be true in WW2.

The way you win a war is to kill the enemy in huge numbers, annihilate their cities by bombing them to rubble and then bomb the rubble into dust. Break the enemy soldiers and the peoples will to fight by having no limits on who, what or where the bombs drop.

In other words use the military for the purpose for which it was intended and that is to kill people and break things.

We are by far the preeminent military power on the planet and there is no nation or combination of nation’s that would prevail in a conflict with us.

Our power is not just military either. The United States consumes about 33% of the output of all goods and service produced in the entire world.

We have it all and amazingly it appears we are on the road to losing it all.

We're still in Korea.

The North Vietnamese Army was all but defeated when democrats pulled the plug on funding and made it seem as though the US couldn't go on.

Let's keep our history straight.

I agree. Bolton is a psycho who never saw a war he didn't love. He should be playing on Bill Kristol's team.

I fully agree with you except partially with the Afghanistan bit.

I believe that the initial war in 2002 was good - we went in, removed an evil regime that was hurting its own people and exporting terror.

Where we made the mistake was not finishing the job by de-nuclearing Pakistan and killing Osama in Paki-land.

Iraq was a mistake from 1991.

Iran would be a big mistake - the Iranian people are fed up with their regime, but an attack by the US will only portray the Ayatollahs as “national defenders” - think of it this way, if Obama was in charge and someone attacked the US and Obambi said “I will fight them”, he’d then get the support even from the likes of us.
