America’s Ongoing Imperial Scam

Biden ends speeches now with “God Bless the Troops,” writes Karen Kwiatkowski. He should respect their sacrifices with a more honorable foreign policy.

I caught and brought this up a couple of weeks ago. Here's some detail on it.

{World War II remains the go-to conflict for commemoration almost 80 years after America entered the fray. It marks the last time the U.S. Congress did its constitutional duty and actually declared war before sending America’s young men off to kill and die on foreign fields.}

There are reasons for this. Narrative control applied on the citizenship and the erasure of liability to unnecessary death and destruction on both ends. One only has to look at Obama's statements on Libya and Syria on reducing a full sense of liability on his part. The criminality went right under the radar never to be addressed again. A failed treasonous Forth Estate that suppresses opposing information while collaborate in spreading false manufactured information for the benefit of the MIC and the ruling class corporations. I, the group, have recently been questioned to why we have recently turned our eyes towards Biden as some of us have opposed his cabinet picks. While that question completely ignores past history of approximately 5 decades, it also delivers a sense of having been conditioned to ask such. And another answer on top of those a couple here have provided follows.

{Little Wars & Presidencies

We should consider these wars linked to the presidents themselves, or — perhaps more accurately — to their executive staffs, and the Department of Defense. War policy-making power has almost completely shifted from the people’s representatives (House and Senate) to unelected appointees often recruited from think tanks — these funded by an array of organizations interested not in peace, but in accessing tax dollars, and gaining revenues at home and abroad.

Biden’s incoming national security team is chock-full of them. War spending, even in the absence of any notable war, is so compelling that for years, a Congress often unable to come up with a budget ensured the flow stayed strong to the Pentagon — and its cousin, the CIA — through continuing resolutions.}

While these little wars have been going on since the Reagan era unnecessarily to create fake enemies for the benefit of world banks, corporations, and the MIC without a true sense of debate and disclosure, the people are constantly fed a facade within a national budget deadline argument each time one comes about. While they put on a struggling 2 faced facade of finding funding for our society they have absolutely no struggle finding hypocritical use of our tax dollars supporting oppressive terrorist governments to install puppet governments. In which we go on to continue supporting these governments yearly with what is basically bribery to keep another corrupt government in line costing billions each year.

Virtually each of the Latin American countries these heinous acts have been forced upon have resources to enrich their own countries needs within trade amongst each other and or abroad. Abroad being the key word here though. Those abroad however use their socialist ways as a means to attack rather than turn to diplomacy and partnership to fuel their failing capitalist system. While at the same time partnering with oppressive terrorist supporters in the middle east. Rinse.Recycle.Repeat.In.The.Middle.East.

{Consider a disturbingly accurate recent diagnosis of the current situation:}

I highly suggest reading the link found at diagnosis. {I remember one evening in distant 1991, I was sitting with a few friends in the SAIS cafeteria discussing the future of the United States with a few very smart students, including a Pakistani Army Colonel, a US captain who served on aircraft carriers and a Spanish diplomat: we all agreed that “the system” was perfect, so to speak, and that the USA would only collapse if a strong external shock would hit it hard. We all agreed that the combination of the best propaganda machine in history, the stupidification resulting from many daily hours of watching the Idiot Tube and, finally, a very effective repression apparatus made for a quasi perfect dictatorship: the one which only gives the illusion of democracy and people power.

To me, this all made perfect sense, but only because I, and my SAIS friends, never even considered the possibility that the US Nomenklatura would commit national suicide and, in the process, bring down the AngloZionist Empire.}

{Veterans, Memorial, Independence, or even just Tuesdays — replete with military flyovers at football games amidst an age of pandemic — have become empty gestures. VA hospitals across the country had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century, and it is there today that many of our Vietnam veterans — of another little war mainly designed to entertain Pentagon fantasies at their expense — rot, for lack of a better word.

Ultimately, these sacrifices, all part of a larger Washingtonian game, hardy matter to anyone but Vietnam alumni’s wives, kids — and this generation’s numbers now also dwindle.

What purpose then, does obligatory national celebration — in prose or pageantry — of veterans actually serve in year 20 of intractable and hopeless wars? Clearly, veterans and their families are the only ones who truly sacrificed anything. Those negotiating massive defense contracts — including built-in clauses covering delays, flaws, and implicit corruption — won’t even sacrifice surplus profits for the good of the country.}

Is she referring to taxes here? Or is that another good they managed to separate themselves from which needs new found consideration.

{In fact, trotting out idealized veterans rationalizes and justifies MIC-corruption — trading on the good will that most American have for those who served (even if the government they served was lying about why) is increasingly unworkable.}

Ah, well, it should be anyways. I find it astounding that there remains a deafening silence for the American soldiers who became victims within a war now understood to have been manufactured over a series of lies. Currently remaining also as unwinnable and incapable of reaching false manufactured goals. I get a lot of flack for my developed opinions on empire building, capitalism, and Marxism on social media and here. The odd thing about this though is when it comes to my spoken views of openly suggesting that these actions were essentially the murder of our own family members, crickets. I've never had one person dish out any sense of rebuttal or anger towards me. While I have received some likes and replies from those brave enough to chime in in agreement. Wouldn't this be a sign that family members of these soldiers agree but fear the want to speak out? !We must speak out for them!

{The imperial scam we’ve kept calling a republic these past 70 years is collapsing, and it will take all of us — veteran and civilian alike — to ensure a soft landing.}

Collapse---The lastest Vice episode from the series WHILE THE REST OF US DIE. We spent decades and trillions of dollars worrying about nuclear annihilation. What if the apocalypse is already here, and we just don't realize it?

I watched this episode last night and part of its contents were on how the elite are preparing for a major civil unrest and a social collapse. These elite have been preparing bunkers and get aways in Alaska and New Zealand as 2 places mentioned. Getting their passports for NZ ahead of time. Others finding remote places to build to escape large scale civil unrest in cities. What if the apocalypse is the market system which has been in overdrive and constantly creating fake recoveries? How does the market find sanity in gains and record numbers as the society around it is collapsing? These elite are so worried they're now also concerned about the X military contractors they hired to guard their gated communities. Expecting that the unrest can be so severe they may turn on them. They understand that they have created a monster that's about to come out of a slumber, but can't comprehend supporting the people and their society that will be the make up of the monster.
