Populists are always happy to sit in their comfy arm chairs and reap the benefits of US power but are far too lazy to do any of the heavy lifting required to maintain it.

There are monsters in every corner of the world that the DC Globohomo Regime must sally forth and destroy.

Yes! Oppose forever war in the middle east, which has been nothing but terrible for this country? Anti-Semite!

Oppose looting? Racist!

Don’t think men can become women? Transphobe!

Have an actual border? Xenophobe!

Same energy.

“... reap the benefits of US power...”


50K killed in WW1

300K in WW2

30K in Korea

50K in Vietnam

20K casualties and 5 trillion dollars in Iraq and Afghanistan

750 Overseas bases

one trillion dollar per year military

one trillion dollar trade deficit per year

And the richest counties in the USA are the MIC Swamp counties surrounding Washington DC. They win. Everyone else loses.

Of course. Women have zero accountability.
Just word vomit, no accountability, then expect men to defend them.
SOP.

If the Muzzie crazies (Iran and worse) get control of the Middle East, you can kiss the Western economies “goodbye”. Including ours.

Now, that’s not to say a different course could not have been taken, starting, say, in the early Dubya years. But, it wasn’t, and we have to deal with the cards on the table now. :-(

Iran sought a normalization of ties bw them and the US but the Bushites rejected it. They offered to stop funding Palestinian terror if we would normalize relations with them and take them off the “axis of evil” list.

Bush preferred war. War and bad relations are more profitable.

You do realize what the radical Muzzies’ plan is for you and yours, regardless of whether or not we “mind our own business”?

Maybe if we didn’t bomb them and invade their countries for the last 33+ years things would be different.

Yemen has all the ingredients of a rising power: a very large and aggressive youthful population, fueled by faith, that is putting enormous and surprising pressure on its "superior" neighbor. You're too ignorant to know this, but Japan too, was considered a feudalistic joke before they defeated the Russian Empire in 1905.

You're right. We haven't dropped enough bombs on the middle east. A few thousand more ought to do it.
