Simple. Biden hasn’t found a way to completely abandon installations there and withdraw forces yet - leaving billions/trillions of equipment there. He’ll pull that out later this year for more distraction from the economy, border and victim-pandering leftist actions.
You are correct.
All those bases and all that projected power isnt about “democracy” or the ‘international rules based order” - it’s ultimately about keeping the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency because without that the whole house of cards collapses.
That's a very good question. I mean, we deposed Saddam and then, I was assured by then-President Bush, had ushered in democracy for those freedom-loving people. Mission accomplished, and all that.
If Biden does oversee the final disintegration of the GAE, I suppose that'll be one good thing he'll have accomplished.
Why thank you - since I was only 5 or so when he was elected, he must have recognized my potential for valor, honor, and military acumen fairly early.
That word “rebels” has a connotation of its own. We see them differently when they are called that.
Tell me again why you think recruiting is down ?
