President Eisenhower, in his final address to the nation, uttered words that will remain relevant for ages.
The following is a key excerpt from that speech:
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists, and will persist.
VIDEO
The military-industrial complex that Eisenhower was referring to is the nefarious alliance among governments, arms manufacturers, arms dealers, and mercenaries.
This is a coalition that profiteers from wars and hence uses its powers to compel governments to enter optional conflicts. The fact that the lives of civilians and armed personnel are lost and trillions of taxpayer dollars are wasted hardly matters to them.
This is a symbiotic relationship.
The arms dealer or defense contractor donates to the politician and perhaps promises them lucrative jobs after their retirement from politics.

Schiff said on the floor of the House, uears aog, regarding Russia:
“We must fight them (Russia) over there (Ukraine) so we don’t have to fight them here!”
Really. He said that. THAT’S their mentality!!!
The inmates are running the asylum.
Is Bismarck a herring?
Zelensky can give the U.S. taxpayers back the money funneled through Hunter Biden and release the transcripts of Jao Bai-din shutting down the investigation into his illegal dealings with Burisma.
Yes, they no longer train kids in school to hide under desks LOL.
“Maybe Ukraine could cede some of its land in the east to Russia. That territory is ethnically Russian, and it’s probably gone anyway. In return, Ukraine gets a large amount of Russian gold. Everyone can then claim a victory of sorts.
Such an agreement wouldn’t be easy to pull off.”
That was something for Russia to discuss prior to their invasion of Crimea. Once they resorted to force any discussion of letting them keep what they stole was off the table.
“That territory is ethnically Russian”
About 23% of the people living there in 2014 were ethnically Russian. If a population of ethnic Russians is going to be used to justify an invasion by Russia then such populations need to be purged and ejected from the countries they’re colonizing on behalf of Soviet Russia.
They are enemy aliens.
But if they wish to be Ukrainian, Estonian, German, Polish, etc. then that’s fine. Elsewise go back to Russia.
Included in that group are those who conspired to interfere with our government and impeach a dutifully elected President Trump. That list of names is all anyone needs to be suspicious of anything supporting Ukraine.
Have you seen video of Zelensky’s home-erotic dance?
Why? Putler appears to be like a small shark that's attempted to swallow the Ukrainian blowfish. It's only a matter of time before he's forced to cough it up.
You SUCK at history. Zelensky became President of Ukraine long after the Hunter Biden/ Burisma scandal took place.
“Smile! Wait for the flash...”

How apropos.
Russia has not stolen a single middle class job in US.
That would be China. But wait, Joe Biden has received millions from China. Therefore there will be no war with the real thieves.
About 47 minutes after the button is pushed, the reality will bite. Maybe 2 minutes for those in range of a sub.
The missiles aren’t in Kansas anymore - Looking Glass duties transferred to another platform.
I think they will just blame Russia when they lose.
their assets shoud be confiscated as soon as their conspiracy is revealed - until then, all we can do is hate them.
Yes, and Zelensky was supposed to expose and eliminate corruption in Ukraine. Why that never happened. But Zelensky was skilled at performing homo-erotic dances. Have you guys seen those video’s of his dance?
Absolutely!
He’s refilling our SOR & letting the msm report on all our intel basically saying we/US are running the Uke war!
“Have you seen video of Zelensky’s home-erotic dance?”
He has an erotic home that can dance? I had no idea that Ukrainian technology was so advanced. No wonder Pidor Putin wants to conquer Ukraine! He and his homosexual friends would LOVE to have erotic homes that can dance!
“Russia has not stolen a single middle class job in US.
That would be China. But wait, Joe Biden has received millions from China.”
YES!!! There are a couple bills winding through Congress now, to enforce more sanctions on China. But certain bribed individuals are trying to sabotage the effort! Including plenty of COC neocons!
The fault lies with the corrupt Dems and our corrupt State Department, not the Ukrainians.
