Certainly nothing to be proud of:

Shocking, but not surprising. Eisenhower warned of the military/industrial complex, but he helped set it in motion and subsidize it

I agree with most but I truly do not believe that we are contemplating preemptive war with China and or Russia.

The US had three chances this past century to lead the world into a new order of peace and prosperity. 1945, 1991, and 2001. Each time we chose global war and neocolonialism. History will not be kind to us.

I ended "depressed."

Every civilization dies at some point, be it the Romans or the Incas, the Greeks or the Turks. Our clock is ticking, we have been advancing for more than 250 years and our age is showing. The enemies within are almost always stronger than the enemies without. And with the rest of the world suffering the effects of climate change much more than we are, the bubbling cauldron of over population, famine, political unrest and tribalism is getting very close to blowing up in ways we can hardly imagine. I’m glad I’m old.

Yes there are far bigger monsters waiting to ravage Western civilization and the globe, than just the failing of Americas capital military partnership, which now increacingly seems just a small local matter when viewed globally. Except for the harm the dying beast could do, and has perhaps started to do, in its death throws.
