Make A Republicrat's Head Explode: Tell Them The Truth

Sure you don’t, that’s why you’ve fall all over yourself whining about how “brave” their slave raids, mass shootings of civilians, and burning prisoners alive is. Oh, and sniveled about how their victims were just “traitors and collaborators”. Yeah, nobody’s buying that. You are a ISIS fanboy, pure and simple, who idolizes the group because of its anti Americanism and willingness to murder anyone it can catch.

When are you going to Syria to join your heroes?

America's Empire of Bases

"...As distinct from other peoples, most Americans do not recognize -- or do not want to recognize -- that the United States dominates the world through its military power. Due to government secrecy, our citizens are often ignorant of the fact that our garrisons encircle the planet.[pssssssst, hey, tigger, listen up] This vast network of American bases on every continent except Antarctica actually constitutes a new form of empire -- an empire of bases with its own geography not likely to be taught in any high school geography class. Without grasping the dimensions of this globe-girdling Baseworld, one can't begin to understand the size and nature of our imperial aspirations or the degree to which a new kind of militarism is undermining our constitutional order.

Our military deploys well over half a million soldiers, spies, technicians, teachers, dependents, and civilian contractors in other nations. To dominate the oceans and seas of the world, we are creating some thirteen naval task forces built around aircraft carriers whose names sum up our martial heritage -- Kitty Hawk, Constellation, Enterprise, John F. Kennedy, Nimitz, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Carl Vinson, Theodore Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, John C. Stennis, Harry S. Truman, and Ronald Reagan. We operate numerous secret bases outside our territory to monitor what the people of the world, including our own citizens, are saying, faxing, or e-mailing to one another.

Our installations abroad bring profits to civilian industries, which design and manufacture weapons for the armed forces or, like the now well-publicized Kellogg, Brown & Root company, a subsidiary of the Halliburton Corporation of Houston, undertake contract services to build and maintain our far-flung outposts. One task of such contractors is to keep uniformed members of the imperium housed in comfortable quarters, well fed, amused, and supplied with enjoyable, affordable vacation facilities. Whole sectors of the American economy have come to rely on the military for sales. On the eve of our second war on Iraq, for example, while the Defense Department was ordering up an extra ration of cruise missiles and depleted-uranium armor-piercing tank shells, it also acquired 273,000 bottles of Native Tan sunblock, almost triple its 1999 order and undoubtedly a boon to the supplier, Control Supply Company of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and its subcontractor, Sun Fun Products of Daytona Beach, Florida.

At Least Seven Hundred Foreign Bases

It's not easy to assess the size or exact value of our empire of bases. Official records on these subjects are misleading, although instructive. According to the Defense Department's annual "Base Structure Report" for fiscal year 2003, which itemizes foreign and domestic U.S. military real estate, the Pentagon currently owns or rents 702 overseas bases in about 130 countries and HAS another 6,000 bases in the United States and its territories. Pentagon bureaucrats calculate that it would require at least $113.2 billion to replace just the foreign bases -- surely far too low a figure but still larger than the gross domestic product of most countries -- and an estimated $591,519.8 million to replace all of them. The military high command deploys to our overseas bases some 253,288 uniformed personnel, plus an equal number of dependents and Department of Defense civilian officials, and employs an additional 44,446 locally hired foreigners. The Pentagon claims that these bases contain 44,870 barracks, hangars, hospitals, and other buildings, which it owns, and that it leases 4,844 more....These numbers, although staggeringly large, do not begin to cover all the actual bases we occupy globally....

Yawn. Another copy pasted article, wailing and whining because America has allies and that, in the minds of CT losers, is horrible.

On Bombs And Bombings – Caitlin Johnstone

"....bombs are cranked out like iPhones at enormous profit, and nearly all bombings are ignored. Many bombs are being dropped per day by the US and its allies, with a massive civilian death toll, and almost none of those bombings receive any international attention. The only time they do is generally when a bombing occurs that was not authorized by the US-centralized empire.

This is one of those absolutely freakish things about our society that has become normalized through careful narrative management, and we really shouldn’t allow it to be. The fact that explosives designed to rip apart human anatomy are dropped from the sky many times per day for no other reason than to exert control over foreign countries should horrify us all.

An interesting social experiment when you talk to someone might be to tell them solemnly, “There’s been a bombing.” Then when they say “What?? Where??”, tell them “The Middle East mostly. Our government and its allies drop many bombs there per day in order to keep a resource-rich geostrategic region balkanized and controllable.”

Then watch their reaction.


You will probably notice a marked change in demeanor as the person learns that what you meant is different from what they thought you meant. They will likely act as though you’d tricked them in some way. But you didn’t. You just called a thing the thing that it is, and let their assumptions do the rest.

When someone gravely tells you “There’s been a bombing,” what they almost always mean is that there has been a suspected terrorist attack in a western, majority-white nation. They don’t mean the kind of bombing that kills exponentially more people and does exponentially more damage than terrorism in western nations. They don’t mean the kind of terrorism that our government enacts and approves of.

Isn't this even more reason to support domestic energy production? If we get our own, no need to "drop many bombs there per day in order to keep a resource-rich geostrategic region balkanized and controllable". I agree with the President. Drill, frack, and get out of the middle east. Offer allies an exit ramp from the OPEC and if they pass or choose to buy from Russia, leave them, OPEC, Russia and NATO to their own devices.

...idiot, you are the one who supports the murdering in syria, not i... when are YOU going to get YOUR soft white butt off the teevee couch and bring freedom to the foreigners?

[...as we know, trigger won't...but trigger will cheerlead/apologize for his stinking republicrat puppet$ who rubber-$tamp the murdering of and thieving from foreigners who did not attack us first, plunder the trea$ury, etc., in furtherance of their hideous global cru$ade$] :cuckoo:

As we know, the CTer will continue to cheerlead for ISIS, blathering about how “brave” he fantasizes the slavers are in order to justify his pathological hatred and inability to handle the real world.

The rest of his post is nothing more than meaningless drivel....as usual.

...great points except maybe the fracking...

...unfortunately we have tigger's bankster puppet$ for 'leaders' who pave the way for tho$e who want to control ALL the oil..and everything else!... fornicating idiots ... :cuckoo:

...btw, 'the president' has worked his hole about 'getting out of the middle east' but last i saw it's the same old same old stinking republicrat $tatus quo as to troop numbers, budget$, etc.. ... ugh...
 
Examples of the bombs dropping every day, link?

...of course you understand they are talking bombing 'averages,' right?...

...[bets on how long before triggered tiggers screams, 'CONSPIRACY THEORY'] ;) here's one: Trump’s Military Drops a Bomb Every 12 Minutes, and No One Is Talking About It - Truthdig

"We live in a state of perpetual war, and we never feel it. While you get your gelato at the hip place where they put those cute little mint leaves on the side, someone is being bombed in your name. While you argue with the 17-year-old at the movie theater who gave you a small popcorn when you paid for a large, someone is being obliterated in your name. While we sleep and eat and make love and shield our eyes on a sunny day, someone’s home, family, life and body are being blown into a thousand pieces in our names.

Once every 12 minutes.

The United States military drops an explosive with a strength you can hardly comprehend once every 12 minutes. And that’s odd, because we’re technically at war with—let me think—zero countries. So that should mean zero bombs are being dropped, right?

Hell no! You’ve made the common mistake of confusing our world with some sort of rational, cogent world in which our military-industrial complex is under control...."


...here's another: US dropped record number of bombs on Afghanistan last year | US news | The Guardian

"The US dropped more bombs on Afghanistan in 2019 than any other year since the Pentagon began keeping a tally in 2006, reflecting an apparent effort to force concessions from the Taliban at the negotiating table.

According to new figures released by US central command, US warplanes dropped 7,423 bombs and other munitions on Afghanistan, a nearly eightfold increase from 2015.

The increasing intensity of the air campaign has been accompanied by an increase in civilian casualties attributed to US forces. According to UN data, the US accounted for half the 1,149 civilian deaths attributed to pro-government forces in Afghanistan over the first three-quarters of 2019.

Ok, agree it’s wrong. But thst is wild 7000 bombs and only 1000 civilian casualties.

America's Expeditionary Kleptocracy: A Banana Republic and Its Banana Wars - Antiwar.com Original

"...Back in the bad old days of "gunboat diplomacy," Washington shipped its sons off to overt corporate protection-racket missions in Latin America and East Asia. Sometimes the guns on those boats weren’t sufficient, so the navy was obliged to "send in the marines." These were dubbed America’s "Banana Wars."

So it was that the proudest of the Corps’ "few and proud" – Major General Smedley Butler – earned his two Congressional Medals of Honor during ten or so deployments bolstering business interests. Or, as he’d later explain in his post-retirement "Road to Damascus" tract, War is a Racket:

I helped make Mexico…safe for American oil interests…Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys…raping half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street…I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers…the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests…made Honduras right for American fruit companies…In China…helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested.

All in all, he diagnosed himself mostly "a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street."

Yet what’s unfolding in the Syrian sphere of the US military’s Operation Inherent Resolve would be all too familiar to Smedley. For about the only thing current administration has inherently resolved to do there is protect the oil wells of Delta Crescent Energy. Five will get ya 500 – about as many troops still in country – that America’s mothers imagined a more romantic mission for their cherished sons. But such is life at the tip of Trump’s transactional strategic-spear.

It was, predictably, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo who announced the deal between the US energy corporation and northeastern Syria’s Kurds to develop the fields under their militia’s control. Delta Crescent is a classic kleptocratic choice – basically a "revolving door" with shareholders – what with its co-foundingtrio of a former US Army Delta Force officer, a Bush-era diplomat, and a veteran oil executive..."
 
:cuckoo:

...ISIS, al qaeda, etc. are [LARGELY] responses to foreigners f#cking with them, you dense republicrat parrot... :cuckoo:

AL Qaeda. Formed in part to the USA having a base on Saudi land AT THE INVITATION of the Saudi government.

ISIS formed in order the create a new califate in the Middle East. A "holy war" focused on and that killed many more Muslims than westerners.
 
Definitely some heads exploding, but I don't think it's a Republicrat's:
