“We ... have no qualms about toppling them through subversion or military force”

This is a lie

“It’s no coincidence that the U.S. has pissed away thousands of American lives and more than a trillion dollars in military campaigns in the Middle East for the benefit of governments and powerful people who are contributors to the Clinton Foundation and/or real estate partners with the Bush family. “

That is not the US. That is a couple of self appointed royal families who have no adherence to the Constitution.

Our Military, each member, takes an oath to defend the Constitution. They certainly do have qualms about running around being told what to do by people who are elected by uneducated people who also have no acquaintanceship with the Constitution. They trust the US voters to take care of its military by electing people with respect for their own oath.

Our military is what? the largest for questionable reasons?

That is a scandalous implication. You liberals who want a small military as if it is a sign of virtue do not care any more than Carter did, that we were not respected around the world, to detrimental effects.

Reagan built up the military primarily to get the USSR off our backs.

Get over it.

I know a guy who was a champion boxer at the military academy he attended. He is trained in hand to hand combat. is a marksman with a gun collection.

I’ve known him for 30 years.

No one bothers him. And he does not physically impose his will on anyone

I’m going to go watch Saturday cartoons.

This forum is nuts this morning.

D Day of all Days.

No. I’m going to put on ‘Band of Brothers’

Dude -- As a nation, we've pissed away thousands of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars in the last 25 years just to protect radical Islamic royal families in places like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Part of this involved toppling a Ba'athist regime in Iraq and replacing it with a new "democratic" government which immediately adopted a new constitution in which Islam is enshrined as the official state religion.

And the author of this article actually believes that the U.S. has any interest in promoting "freedom" and "democracy" around the world? LMAO.
