LINK - American Thinker: watch for war

Watch for war
By James Mullin
January 15, 2022

quote:



What do tyrants do when their ship is sinking or, more accurately, when they realize that their house of cards will not hold up? They divert their populace by starting a war — or at least allowing one to happen. War isn't simply a way of diverting attention, either. The very fact of a war emergency makes it far easier to erode or negate whatever civil liberties still exist. Think: PATRIOT Act.

...

But ask yourself if the floundering, self-immolating Biden-Harris administration might not rejoice at the gargantuan pass it would get if Americans — including especially conservative Americans — must focus on a foreign enemy. Gone would be the rightful concerns about vaccine madness, dementia, runaway inflation, Big Tech/mass media fascism, corrupt education unions, failing Democrat cities, ginned up racial hatred, attacks on the Second Amendment, the federalization of elections, a corrupt FBI and DOJ, election fraud, the Russia Hoax, parental rights and school boards, an open southern border, and on and on.

Biden (and Harris, if there's room) will wrap themselves snugly in the flag, and all will be forgiven. For a time. But the theft of civil liberties will make a "comeback" highly unlikely for freedom. The Uniparty will own everything.

Look I am the last one that wants war at all

But some of yall are delusional. If the war stays conventional we wipe the fricking floor with Russia if we go full war. Many of you have no clue what you are talking about at all and have no clue our true capabilities is full on war. We literally could take out 90%+ of their planes, sink every sub and every battleship within 48 hours. They only have 1 working aircraft carrier and it would be gone within 12 hours. We would own the skies.


Now do we need to? frick no. Even if you pretend any European country is worth it, you still dont Because even if you win they will want to go nuclear. Do we have the ability to take out every sub and pretty much every missle in the silo....yep, but all it takes is 1 to slip past and that is not worth the risk.

My rule of thumb is pretty simple for war

1) were we attacked? If not refer to #2 as really it has no effect in day to day life for the average American.

2) is this so important that you are willing to send your own son to die and would you be willing to die yourself for the cause. If the answer is not a resounsing yes......don't ask other to send their kids to die then.

Going to war with Russia in Ukraine is liable to start a war in the US.

So is the right wing plan to allow Russia to invade other countries while you weakly look away?

You mean like Obama did?

Nobody wants it. The US isn’t building up troops on Russia’s border and threatening to invade. Russia is doing that toward Ukraine right now. Russia seems to be the one threatening war.




Dude Ukraine has been part of Russia for 100+ years. Why should I give two fricks about that shithole? Or any other country that doesn't spend atleast 3% gdp on defense?

You are right you don't know. You show your ignorance when you fall for propaganda like that. Would expect anything less though from someone like you who never served and is too busy getting beat up by Las Vegas rent a cops.

Go to fort Benning and tell the rangers that dumb shite.

Lloyd Austin, Milley, and progressives are destroying our military

Our military leadership are all a bunch of politicians. Not just politicians, but deep state stooges who do the bidding of the NWO and administrative state.

They care more about purging so called white nationalists from the ranks and instilling woke values rather than building up a tough masculine fighting force

Truth hurts

When it comes to other countries, especially the ones who would enslave and conquer you if they had the chance, THEY should be the ones asking themselves your question “Can you imagine us going to war against the USA???”

And the thought should send a cold shiver down their spine…. If you’re the one with the shiver, then you are NOT operating from a position of power.

I think that’s precisely our biggest problem right now, NOT operating from a position of power. Obviously because of who our Commander in Chief is and his feckless nature, as well as most other positions of top leadership both in government and military. The would be “conquerors” are emboldened exactly because of those current realities.

i, personally, am more afraid of a war with China, they have no problems with reducing their population.
Hell, they have so many people they could fight with rocks and sticks and literally overwhelm any nations military forces, and keep on coming. Logistics for the US, particularly with supply and demand and shipping and transportation. WOW!

However, historically, war is 'good' for the country.....ramping up the war machine: people to back to work, jobs open everywhere, the draft begins again putting 18-21 year olds to work in military jobs, unemployment goes down, stocks to up......... And the political infighting stops, people are more worried about the war than the antics in the swamp.

Sad, but true.

Russia doesn't want a war beyond its immediate region. It is not the USSR of old with global power.

The way to hurt Russia is produce oil to make the price go down. Without high oil prices, Russia has next to no economy. That is how Reagan bankrupted Russia, got the Saudis to keep production up and prices low

Yes it is.

Despite the woke generals our capabilities are so far beyond any other countries its not even funny. In all out war we destroy any and everyone.


If you think other wise you have never served and are very ignorantly informed on our capabilities. And you overestimate other countries tries big time.

The generals have become politicians but the overall military is still very very strong.
