The grift: effortlessly eradicating what used to be the largest military threat to the United States in the world without even risking American lives for pennies on the dollar. What a grift.
If that’s what you believe then send me a DM cause I have a nice bridge to sell you.
The destruction of what was recently considered a real and looming military threat to the US is not a matter of belief. It already objectively happened.
This alternate reality you inhabit sounds very interesting. Last I checked, Milley now refers to Russia as a great power.
Chief among those challenges, Milley said, will be the change from a “unipolar moment” in which the U.S. stood as “the most powerful nation on earth.”
“Now, it is increasingly clear that we are really in a multipolar international environment with at least three great powers: the United States, China and Russia,” he said. “And three is much more complicated than two and certainly much more complicated than one.”
Of course, Mark Milley is just United States Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I’m sure you know far better than he does. 😂
Well, I appreciate your support. I’m not as sure about it as you are, but all current evidence indicates that I am correct here.
It is hypocritical of you to complain about the war machine and callous Americans in one breath and then switch to exalting the opinion of someone proclaiming extremist quotes in order to keep his “inevitable” war machine going as soon as your two initial fallacies were exposed.
If you think that the fact that Russia now being considered a great power by US military supports your argument then what else is there to tell you.
You know… the Joint Chiefs of Staff is always going to say that. To downplay a country with a massive nuclear arsenal would be stupid. That does NOT mean they have a military capable of taking a hill of dirt.
Whatever helps you cope I suppose.
Having extra money left over seems like the opposite of a grift to me.
Where do you think that money ends up exactly, think it’s going to recirculate back into the economy or end up continue being allocated to the Pentagon?
That money was already taxed for the defense budget. It would’ve never been used for anything other than whatever DoD decided to spend it on.
Biden raised Pentagon budget as I recall, and the proxy war was one of the main justifications for that the other being deranged fantasies about having a war with China.
