I've given President Trump a lot of credit lately for his decision to pull out of Syria, and I don't regret doing so.
But let's not forget the Drone War that Bush started, Obama made worse, and Trump has pumped up to record levels of carnage.
In his Dec. 18 column at venezuelanalysis.com, Nino Pagliccia asks: ‘Have the Russian Military Aircrafts in Venezuela Breached the Door to “America’s Backyard”?’
But first, I’d like to say a few words about war and militarism.
This nation was founded on the original sins of genocide and slavery. In 1967 at Riverside Baptist Church Martin Luther King, Jr. later called the US the largest exporter of violence on the planet, and had called out Amerika for its triple evils of militarism, racism, and capitalism.
Pity the poor Pentagon. You can have too much of a good thing.
The War Pigs in northern Virginia have been so successful at blowing up innocent women and children around the world that they are running out of bombs.
It's become a pattern. Wherever our enemies have dug into an urban area, we've bombed that city to rubble regardless of the people living there.
This diary may be on the absurd side, but I know that this issue’s bothered any number of us (including many tankies on Twitter), but this comment thread posits some opinions and offers many links to buttress arguments. Of course there were disagreements I haven’t included, but not wanting to risk a wider war with Israel at this point, with so many dangers on Russia’s borders…makes sense to me. Can’t say I’ve checked out more than a couple links…
I know that "revolting" and "amoral" are relative concepts in the Trump Administration, but I believe that I can say with some certainty that former Blackwater founder, and brother of Betsy DeVos, Erik Prince has got them all beat.
In October the Orange Monster said, “I totally changed rules of engagement. I totally changed our military.”
He was telling the truth.
Following the impressively brave back and forth between the Dear Leaders of North Korea and Amerika the Great, and the Red Alert announcement by the head of the United Nations warning about nuclear war, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has announced a presentation to prepare the public and government for surviving a nuclear bomb attack.
Do you remember the rhetoric about Aleppo and Russia about this time last year?
"All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad. (shouting) You’ve got to say: ‘I’m a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!"

Prior to Little Hands Dictator Trump's unbearably chickenshit speech at the United Fraud, the Wall Street, I said WALL STREET, Journal made a proposal to solve the North Korea manufactured "crisis".
Two high risk strategies
1] The Russia!! Gamble
I've said all I am going to say about that one
According to polls most Americans are indifferent to the carnage that we inflict around the world.
Right now the target of that carnage is Raqqa.
More war in Afghanistan, sure to be a winner this time eh Sherlock?
Steve Bannon leaving explained, looks like mayhem over there at America Frist[sic]
Did the Russians!! Give Trump Hillary's Plan?
