So you don't even acknowledge any purpose in defense ,nor understand strategic parity.


Defense would entail protecting our borders.
Being 2000 miles away to protect other countries and to provide stability for corporate trade is not defense, it is welfare.
It is not the tax payers responsibility to provide for the welfare of other countries nor to protect global corporations.

They say these global corporations do not owe us a dang thing, so we do not owe them anything either.
I think the taxes should be raised on Globalists to 100% while Nationalists Pay 0%.

Here goes their blueprint for humanity:



In short: EXTINCTION FOR HOMO SAPIENS.

That's what they should be doing. It's in the US Constitution. "Provide for the common defense." We spend a trillion dollars a YEAR on welfare payments. And unless you believe "provide for the general welfare" means giving money to individuals for doing nothing, that's not in the Constitution at all.

Where does building a global artificial intelligence command & control network, itself armed with automated attack robots, and humanity transformed into cyborgs and hooked into the network fit into your logic?

Play the video there, I made it all with their words and images / video compositions. Everything but the music its all Them. It is the "Official Version".

Since what we REALLY spend yearly is unknown because its a "black-budget" non-disclosed amount used without accounting....wouldnt we like to know how much we ALREADY spend!?

Ill bet it tops that amount!

This thread is a PERFECT example of conditioned and unconditioned mindsets; damned if we do, and certainly, damned if we don't. I meant that to cover the entirety of 'where' and 'how' the debt is used.

The 'why' is what folks can't admit to or simply willfully overlook. It can be literally psychologically devastating to realize the world you think you know isn't anything like the one that's actually operating in reality. Hence, the conditioned and unconditioned alike become defensive.

By the way, all us "tax payers" are in fact "interest payers" on loans from the Federal Reserve. Hey, at least we make the minimum payments.... sometimes..

You seriously can't say you've never heard of the debt ceiling or quantitative easing???

Simply, this is a debt based economy which is NEVER GOING TO BE PAID OFF.

Ever.

100% false. It's defensive. You do realize you need to win the battles long before they get to the US coast right? If they are parked of your shores you are screwed.





What ?

The U.S role in Syria is defensive ? Iraq defensive ? Afghanistan defensive ?...I'm failing to follow your logic....

Defensive by way of defending American corporate interests in the region....hell, the world frankly.

But we had to create an enemy..... frame a narrative that no one is safe anymore and never will be in order to go offensively, while making it look defensive overall.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Yes, well I would partly agree that they are defending corporate interests , only partly because they are also expanding corporate interests .

Amazing that people actually believe invading other countries is a defensive move.

Well, ......isn't it? Can it be???? How else can you accumulate assets while you export jobs out of your country? How do you pay for those losses at home?? You honestly believe we at full employment?? If so, why are more Americans on welfare than anytime in history?? Because their lazy??? My a$$. It's because the job market has swayed away from skilled labor to service job automatons that give those workers no sense of accomplishment or financial security.

You wanna work three jobs, one at McDonald's after having been employed at $20+ per hour to do a more meaningful job??

People are at the fu#k it point...not giving up, but honestly questioning WHY? What's the difference??

I could slave away all day everyday at a suck a$$ service job, or collect benefits that may be a bit below the income OF THREE JOBS, or say screw it.

In think you believe the middle class is still relevant..

That's sad...

That's just went right over my head.

What makes you think, I think the middle class is relevant?

The middle class is being #ed up the ass, literally.

The average Joe is reaching breaking point that much is obvious....sorry clearly I am missing something here.

Grammatical errors on both our parts aside, I think we agree in many areas. However, there's more to any objective than just the "title".

"GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM"

Seriously read that....now tell me how is that won???
When does it end??? If even ONE INDIVIDUAL is a terrorist, the war is on!!! That's how it works! Never-ending...
You do realize we have been at war since 1991???? Maybe even further back...hard to say, but '91 is a good starting point. Some would say since after WW2.....HARD to dismiss that assessment too. Nevertheless, here we are.

America exports weapons and war like Costa Rica exports bananas!

Aside from gas/kerosene.... war is our main export.

BOTTOM LINE.

No answers are usually given to me from the dumber ones.
ESPECIALLY when they can't see beyond their own city curb.

The war on terror cannot be won as it is double edged sword, it is nothing more than "words " yes lesmis I'm looking at you.... So I guess we are screwed either way.

It isn't any display of higher intelligence to counter THIS.
It was already KNOWN and we are aghast how lost so many are.
