Thread Name: BS: Our new Constitution and new Pentagon
Subject: RE: BS: Our new Constitution and new Pentagon
They are incapable of winning their pre-emptive foreign wars of aggression, because those wars were launched for stupid and downright insane reasons, on false pretenses that virtually no one would believe except maybe about half the American public who know nothing they don't hear on mainstream TV, and because their wars are irrational and unjustifiable on any basis.
Such causes are never won in the end, they are lost, because they have no moral basis whatsoever...and because their military presence is utterly intolerable to the people whose lands they invade. Like Hitler and Mussolini they don't deserve to win their damned wars, and they are not going to win them.
But it will take time and a lot more blood before it's over.
The so-called War on Terror IS terrorism. It's the number one terrorist effort in the world....which is NOT to say, however, that the American soldiers who are serving over there realize they are committing terrorism. They don't, and I wouldn't expect them to. Soldiers almost never realize a thing like that, because they are simply doing the job they were trained to do, as best they can, and suffering and often dying in the process. It's not their fault. It's the fault of the politicians who sent them there under false pretenses, in pursuit of a hidden agenda.
