I am pretty sure it was the last Town Hall in which HRC made the comment about the US still having thousands of troops in japan, Germany and other places. If I remember correctly, the Philippines wanted the US out, got them out and now just got them back--makes one wonder what kind of deal or threat or corporate decision brought the last about. HRC seemed proud we are still there after 50+ years. Maybe someone could write something about this because it points out HRC's dedication to military presence in areas that IMO we do not belong (e.g., Latin America).

More false narratives, lies and deceptions. What they leave out is more important than what they say.

"Gabbard continued, reacting to Attorney General Eric Holder’s remarks about the terminology of terrorism, “the difference is how you define our enemy is directly linked to the strategy that you come up with in how you defeat them, in what you’re doing about it. And this is why it’s so critical and so important. And I’ll look back to my own experiences, like so many Americans after 9/11, I raised my hand and I enlisted because of this call to action from our leaders at that time saying we will go to war and we will seek out and defeat these Islamic extremists who attacked and killed so many Americans on 9/11 and kill them. Just a few short years later, though, we were diverted from that, and we ended up in a nation-building mission in Iraq, deposing Saddam Hussein, pushing forward this Western ideal of democracy in Iraq, costing trillions of dollars and thousands of American lives, and to what end? So, this is the point of why we must learn from the lessons of the past in order to make sure that we don’t go through this same thing again, and these two things are directly linked. We must identify the enemy in order to figure out what is the effective strategy to defeat them.”

Gabbard also commented on Iran, stating “each of these different things that we hear have do with the same common theme, which is it is about their radical Islamic ideology, which is fueling, whether it’s their statements, or their actions, or these attacks by ISIS, or each of these things around the world, and that’s where we’ve got to really look at that and understand it, define it, identify it, and then understand how we must defeat it. And one of the main things that we have to do in order to address this growing certain of ISIS, why they have foreign fighters coming, as you mentioned from well-off families, from democratic societies, is letting them know loud and clear there are two things that will happen if you join this fight with Islamic radical extremists. Number one, you will be killed. Number two, after you’re killed, you’re not going to heaven. There’s this promise of going to heaven and enjoying all of — you know, the things that they’re promising is not a fact. You will go to hell, there’s not — defeating that ideology is really my point.”
