Hey Delta. Too much information.
Trump is pointing out that NATO is there to keep the Krauts in check. Two and a half years between Pearl Harbor and the Normandy invasion gave them and the Russians time to carve each other up. It was like Saddam and the Ayatollas in the 80’s.
When WW2 was over the world needed all our products. The world still needs us. Start with our oil and the US market. Push it without war. Neocons can’t have that.
BUMP
What a load
Starts right in the first line ... “we can destroy Russia”
And how, exactly, are we doing that??
More Martin Armstrong nuttery!!
When does a neocon come to his senses? When he and we are all dead.
The U.S. had already broken the Japanese code and knew in advance when Pearl Harbor would take place.This is a lie. The US knew that the IJN was preparing an attack, but they had no intel suggesting it would target Pearl. Their best guess was Singapore.
I'm hesitant to put too much trust in his analysis when he repeats such long-debunked falsehoods.
” Nearly 2/3rds of our national debt is because of war – not social benefits.”
Where is he coming from?
The nuclear talk is 100% hot air.
Putin has over 200,000 dead Russians to show over his 2022 escalation.
Putin won’t escalate again if he can avoid doing so.
The Russian Federation will continue to pulverize Ukrainian front lines by the kilometer until Ukraine agrees to concede the areas held in eastern Ukraine by Russia.
Russian missiles were already in Cuba before Kennedy knew about the Soviet missile plan:

The US had missiles in Turkey which were removed as part of the deal made to resolve the Cuban missile crisis.
Have to keep repeating this post to warn any new readers that Martin Armstrong is a convicted felon. A charismatic sociopath who spent 11 years in jail for cheating investors out of $700 million and then hiding $15 million in assets from regulators. He remains unrepentant, and appears to be writing anti-American slag for revenge. A type that attracts certain sorts of fanatical followers, as charismatics such as Hitler and Stalin did.
In a nutshell, major countries may issue threats of force and war, but they only go to war based on calculations of national interest and national strategy and assessment of whether sufficient power can be applied to accomplish national objectives at an affordable cost. Most wars are limited wars for that reason, with world wars a rare thing in history.
Putin knows that the US has a great fear of escalation and nuclear war, so he makes threats, but he and Russia will not go to war with the US and NATO because it would lead to the utter devastation of Russia even if nuclear weapons were not used. That is why, despite thousands of nuclear weapons poised for use for decades now, the world has not had a nuclear war.
As for Russia's losses and lack of success in her invasion of Ukraine, Putin can ease back on Russia's pain by adopting a defensive posture and minimizing casualties. That would effectively admit that there is a stalemate that will continue unless the US and NATO give up or act decisively or sanctions collapse the Russian economy.
Can the Russo-Ukraine war be brought to a negotiated conclusion? Of course, and that is how most wars end. On what terms would the war end? That is what the negotiations would be about.
These warmongers truly hate their children and grandchildren.
That is a self-important made-up title.
Two incorrect statements in this article in my opinion:
“The Japanese did not understand that FDR wanted Japan to attack because Congress kept rejecting a Declaration of War to enter Europe.”
When Roosevelt addressed Congress about the Pearl Harbor attack, he did not ask for a DoW against Germany, only Japan. It was not likely Congress would declare war on Germany. Luckily for him, Hitler did him the favor and declared war first.
“However, striking south into British Malaya and the Dutch East Indies would almost certainly provoke an armed U.S. response.”
If Japan had only attacked those territories, I don’t think Congress would have declared war to save the European colonial empires. 1942 and the midterm elections were near. What Congressman would want to go home and tell his voters he sent your kid to die to save Malaya for the British?
Martin Armstrong is a convicted conman responsible for one of the largest ponzi scheme in US history.
He is never right and is currently conning folks again.
“Yes Johnny, history repeats”
Some of this is leftist claptrap. Germany declared War on US. North Korea was interely in the wrong.
