Americans used to fight Commies and Nazis, but now have become Commies and Nazis.

Americans scream that trade wars are good and then are stunned when prices rise and exports fall.

Americans are so batshit insane now that they demand regulations and then are shocked when prices rise and the economy dies.

When the regulations and trade wars kill the economy, Americans demand welfare and bailouts, but do not have the mental capacity to understand why taxes increase.

Americans insist there must be wars, but then Americans are surprised that wars lead to debt, refugees, tyranny, and terrorism.

Americans say Obama was an evil asshole for supporting wars, debt, and tyranny, but then turn around and say Trump is a holy god for embracing wars, debt, and the police state.

Americans want everything to be illegal, but are dumbfounded that crime increases and prisons become overcrowded.

You post these comments all the time. And most of them are fallacies.

The American government wants it this way. It keeps us confused. Divided. Angry.

The public educational system teaches this line of nonsensical thinking. Anybody who asks too many questions or stands up for themselves is labeled a troublemaker and are excommunicated.

This creates a population full of over emotional children with no understanding of the scientific method. No critical thinking skills.

It's toxic. It's exactly what the American government wants.

That was kinda the point. Gotta keep the sheep in fear or they'll wander off.

Yup, the military-industrial complex needs their bogeyman, so they can get their next trillion dollar war approved.

The US and Israel were literally caught funding Al Qaeda and ISIS many many times over. The whole thing is a joke. They just want conflict so they can sell guns and commit crimes with impunity.

Proxy is another word for profit as far as they're concerned.

The number of PMC soldiers killed should be told on the news with the rest. That would've told the public how fucked this is.

The thing is, there are power struggles in the higher echelon of these well placed scum who we sometimes, unintentionally, call our leaders. For the corporatists and defense contractors its simply money-flow by any means mecessary, an entirely atheistical, love of money, desire for power approach. For the oil men, it is being on good terms with dictators, espeically dictators in oil rich countries. If they can work out privatization schemes with mutual benefits, a war would be disadvantageous. This is why I've stated that Iraq was not about oil, and in fact many of the wars imposed in South West Asia hurt oil companies. That brings us to the Neocons, who utilize US military, sometimes mercenaries to engage in wide-scale destabilization campaigns to secure Israel and Balkanize regions, creating tribal in fighting. This can sometimes allow for profit making reconstruction efforts, multilateral and unilateral states will fight over this task, either China or the US. These destabilization campaigns can many times hurt oil companies but so can they benefit from them if the Balkanization destroys countries who refuse to work with them. Then they must work out where they can drill or set up LNG pipelines in geopolitical gratifying positions, understanding that tribal infighting from these Balkanization campaigns might hurt their chances of establishing footholds in these regions.

For the arms dealers, war is a racket, for them only, and its continuation is deserving and needed to increase profit margins.

WRONG.

The blowback theory is a deviously concocted psychological operation pushed by thr CIA, neoconservatives and the Likudniks to continue the 'Global War on Terror.' In fact, Da'esh was directly funded and trained by CIA proxy programs.

The real terrorists in the west are those who commited the terror attacks on 9/11. Those terrorists are the Likudniks, Mossad, the Israeli explosive experts detained before, during and after the events, many of whom fleed to Israel and Switzerland; Shin Bet and Mossad pretending to be art students who infiltrated the World Views Program in the twin towers from 1998 - 2001; a 5th column Likudnik orientated Zionist element in thr executive, judical and to a lesser extent legislative branch of government, the latter being threatened with their lives with Anthrax, two democrates targeted for refsuigg to sign the Patriot Act; the Machiavellian Neoconservatives in Think Tanks such as PNAC and DPG, as well as factions aligned with Zionism and the Likudniks in the higher positions of the CIA and FBI who murdered and fired officials who investigated the Port Authority, and other shady Zionists who made off well because of 9/11.

Americans are so batshit insane now that they scream Obama and Trump are different because Obama and Trump both support wars, debt, and tyranny.

Much like how the War on Poverty created more poor people and the War on Drugs created more drug addicts.

And we mustn't forget how the War on Alcohol led to the rise of criminal empires.

While the "War on Terror" has been without focus, the excursion into Afghanistan for al-Qaeda was a necessity.

But the war on the Taliban and attempt at nation-building were over-reaches, and the invasion of Iraq was totally unnecessary.

It is true new terrorist threats were created but that's not the only result — al-Qaeda was dismantled (the primary goal).

By the way, I don't buy into the 'it's all a conspiracy by the military-industrial complex to dupe Americans' theme.

One of the reasons the US is collapsing now is that Americans think that decay will be stopped by becoming Fascists and Communists. Americans think the US will be improved by expanding wars, increasing the debt, and adding more tyranny when the reason the USA is crashing is because the US has wars, is in debt, and has a police state.

Americans say that they love freedom, but then they turn around and say they need the government to give them free Obamacare, build a wall, protect the US from Yemen, wiretap their phones, arrest people for feeding the homeless, stop farmers from plowing fields, force people to get rid of dogs, ban vaping, and torture suspects.

Every country has the government it deserves.
