It always surprises me how...........the sheep keep throwing their lives into an unnecessary war, nor how the military brass, have SO little regard for their fellow underling, soldiers, that they look away, as those casulties mount. I suppose, whatever drives both parties, must be money. I can't imagine what else it can be.

There is one party with two faces. Both serve their Capitalist masters and have only contempt for the people they pretend to represent. Big Capital owns The Empire.

Apparently, you are right. When i grew up during the Viet era, there were at least some journalists, Halberstram? that reported fairly honestly. And Fulbrights , Arrogance of Power, Mark Hadfield as well, i believe both fractured from the 'master' narrative. ... i really don't see anything here, except this fellow Kent. ... i guess i blame the MSM for this. We don't have one. Its just a conduit for reporting the news that the 'masters' want people to believe is real. .... well, with only a few trillion in assets and 39 trillion in national debt combined with 100+ trillion more in unfunded liabilities, and interest payments , SOMETIME, having to soar, perhaps the sheep will stop their bleating and bust thru the gate.

America is a dying empire. Only the mode of its going remains in question.
