The Syria offensive has emboldened the warhawks, but they’re out of their fuckin minds if they think the rest of Latin America/Russia would just twiddle their thumbs as they do it.

I thought I blocked you spastics
Here’s an exercise for you that may require critical thinking (which evidently, you seem very averse to): Can you list out things that are invalid, dishonest and/or blatantly false in the article? Ensure to quote the parts that fit this category of “invalid, dishonest and/or false” and justify why, while citing sources that you believe to not be in this category.
Mintpress is one of the best sites for independent journalism, Pulitzer winner Chris Hedges constantly contributes and Alan MacLeod does amazing investigative work.
Not their fault you think doing stenography for the State Department and naming “anonymous sources” is as far as good journalism goes. Keep to your corporate propaganda washing and let the rest of us actually read and check the evidence.
USA was a world stabilizer. 1 trump term and a quiet Biden follow up and we have Russia and Israel losing their damn minds. Even N Korea is marching.
And why not? Who will stop them? China amassing around Thailand per a couple articles.
Impulsive. With a “I do what I want.” slogan is the new USA example. The world will follow. The USA guardrails were only broken the first Trump term and only the boldest broke through. Now they’re completely off. Anything could happen.
Between this and our internal rage regarding healthcare and money, I’m not feeling optimistic about the next few years.
Threat and diplomacy both, yeah. Leader of the free world is a title we used to wear, for good or ill. On a side note, Israel is what we raised them to be. The most colonial of the colonialists backed them and still are. Britain just sent them more weapons. Tempered by Abrahamic religion and modern tech, ofc Israel is even more violent.
It’s complex, but the base element is there’s a hole where the USA once stood. And the example of leadership is now no longer normal, but an impulsive fuck with two middle fingers in the air saying “I do what I want.” Not FDR, or Kennedy, or even Obama, but the impulsive fuck who can’t even ring the stock exchange bell outside the paradigm of a 7 year old. There’s permissiveness in that.
the empire is getting spread pretty thin nowadays
Disturbing. Biden certainly kept the election interference operations going, and narco gang support. It’s hard to imagine a more overt operation than the bay of piglets. Would need to move air carrier battle group away from Israel. Bombing all the things would send immigrant caravans north.
It’s same playbook as Ukraine. To destabilize enough to buy everything cheap. With Israel not directly benefitting, it would be a hard media/public sale for such obvious demonic imperialism.
