As long as the dollar is the world's reserve currency, we need to be he world's policeman. And when the dollar is no longer the world's reserve currency we will have a whole other set of problems.

It's incredible how quickly this board transformed into a pack of slobbering Bush/Graham style warmongers, isn't it?

This is all about China. Anyone who cannot see that is not fit to discuss it.


I certainly agree that the reasons given for this war are all surface level b.s. Yet I would put a finer point on it than saying it simply is “about” China.

Without doubt, one of the reasons both Venezuela and Iran have been targeted is because they dared to threaten the global supremacy of the U.S. Dollar as the world’s reserve currency. This only underscores the reality that the USD is dependent upon violent coercion to insure it’s continuation as the world’s reserve currency.

Venezuela offers BRICS priority access to oil, gas projects….



This is a pattern we have seen before. And it has nothing to do with securing human rights or opposing authoritarian regimes.

Was this the real reason Saddam Hussein was targeted for elimination? Similarly, was Muammar Ghaddafi targeted for elimination because he planned a Pan-African gold based currency to challenge the supremacy of the USD?

Libyan Oil, Gold, and Qaddafi: The Strange Email Sidney Blumenthal Sent Hillary Clinton In 2011…



And that brings us to the wellspring of the deepening crisis. One of the primary motivations behind perpetual U.S. intervention in Middle Eastern affairs is not simply about securing access to oil resources; it is instead about preserving the global dominance of the U.S. Dollar and the economic system that supports it.

The Petrodollar Pact with Saudi Arabia is the primary reason the USD is accepted as the world’s reserve currency. After Nixon unilaterally abandoned the Gold Standard, Saudi Arabia agreed to trade oil solely in U.S. Dollars to insure demand for the greenback remained strong.

In return, the U.S. military protected the Saudis from Soviet aggression. Yet while a brilliant piece of political statecraft in it's day, the Petrodollar has been a disaster for the U.S. economically and militarily since at least the end of the Cold War.

Our nation’s corrupt economic and military pact with the House of Saud is in many ways the wellspring of the continuing crisis. “Blood for Oil” has always been a misnomer: the United States has NEVER fought these wars of perpetuity for oil.

There are enough known energy reserves in the Western Hemisphere for our nation to wean itself from dependency on Middle Eastern oil. Yet “Blood for Greenbacks” is another story altogether.

Our entire monetary system is now dependent on manipulation and violent coercion to insure the USD remains the world’s reserve currency. U.S. foreign policy is simply an extension of a “New World Order” — an economic order that favors multinational corporations, global financial institutions and the military-industrial complex over the individual rights of citizens.

The current crisis continues until our nation abandons this print-on-demand currency that is propped up by the corrupt Petrodollar pact. Since at least the end of the Cold War, one of the largest criminal conspiracies against the American people and the Constitution has been the damnable lie that American lives should be risked by inserting our nation’s troops into these ancient sectarian conflicts in distant lands.

Nothing will fundamentally change unless this nation returns to a sound monetary system. And anyone who is unable to recognize this reality is not fit to discuss it.

It is bewildering to behold. I never once was delusional enough to believe that Donald Trump would start channeling Ron Paul when it came to foreign policy.

I indeed recognized that Trump was a lover of big government and massive spending bills. Yet I always assumed it would be Trump’s profligate spending tendencies that would undermine his ultimate MAGA legacy.

Yet I must admit that I am a bit surprised that Trump’s 2nd Administration has been wholly coopted by the neocon wing of the GOP that so opposed the emergence of a populist MAGA movement on the American political landscape. And I am entirely flummoxed to see so many otherwise solid posters on this forum — people who rightly identified neoconservatism as an existential threat to individual liberty — turn a blind eye to Trump’s abandonment of an “America First” foreign policy.

I agree. Carter really should have kept the whole overthrowing of Iran's elected government thing going.

The problem here is Trump is wholly dependent upon the same corrupt entities in our nation’s wholly depraved national security apparatus to “correct” that wrong. The U.S. is too mercurial in it’s foreign policy objectives to know what the future holds for Iran.

I remember Karl Rove going on Fox News after Bush’s 2004 win, triumphantly wielding his infamous whiteboard to “prove” a permanent Republican majority had arrived. Yet in the subsequent midterms, the Repubes were routed and of course, the 2008 election cycle brought us the community-organizer-in-chief.

Many in Trump’s base are now displaying the very same hubris. In our wholly corrupted political environment in which the Deep State rules in perpetuity, the guarantees expire every election cycle.

Wildly fluctuating ideological volatility is baked into the 2 party system. Yet while the two wings of the UniParty® argue each other on cable TV, the Deep State ever consolidates it’s power.

Carter should have sent a rescue team within a month of the hostages being taken. And when there was an attempt it failed badly. Thank God for Reagan.

Ross Perot got his people out.

They turn a blind eye to anything and everything he does. Spending, making nice with the service industry over illegals, regime change, whatever. He's shed some believers along the way, but for the remaining loyalists there is no bridge too far.

Trump stopped the Bush, Clinton dynasty. I remember when Jeb as gov. of Florida when I lived down there. He was grooming himself to be POTUS. Seems it was going to come down to Hillary and Jeb and then Trump stepped in with his high energy. Low energy Jeb.

Putting that issue aside, the question is not whether Iran should have nuclear weapons. The question is why is it a problem for the United States to solve?


Whether another country, anywhere in the world, should have nuclear weapons will always be answered by the United States of America. That will not ever change.

Case in point. In SDV we have the perfect example of decades of UniParty® indoctrination.

SDV is a low information and low IQ voter whose only loyalty is to either a team jersey color and/or the name on the back of that jersey. Such voters have no clue for what they stand for beyond worshipping at the altar of Trump.

Instead of arguing in favor of a consistent set of principles, these types have the mindset of a flaming progressive who is ruled by pure emotion. SDV’s modus operandi on this forum is simply to aim for the kneecaps of anyone who dares criticize Trump.

In doing so, SDV has clearly aligned himself with leftist smear tactics. Such a mindset thus resembles the very progressive ideologies SDV claims to despise: obsessed with tribal politics, playing identity politics and choosing loyalty to a leader over any semblance of intellectual consistency or real conviction.

This clown thinks Trump can do no wrong and is thus no different than the most brainwashed Obama acolyte. SDV and his ilk are indeed the PB equivalent of unthinking brutes in brownshirts.

That is why it is so laughable to see this clown call other posters “kommies!” or “nazis!” when they dare criticize Trump. It’s hard to take someone seriously when they abandon any set of consistent principles in favor of blind loyalty to a single figurehead.

This may seem harsh yet I have tried repeatedly to engage in constructive dialogue with SDV and it is an utterly futile gesture. Since name-calling and vilification is all that SDV brings to this forum, that is exactly what he will get in return from me.

We already have a looming problem: our nation’s debt financed monetary system is — by any objective measure — fiscally unsustainable. At some point gravity is going to take over and it won’t be a soft-landing for any of us.

This problem is exacerbated by the fact that our nation’s print-on-demand monetary system is the funding mechanism for the Welfare/Warfare State. The Welfare State and the Warfare State aren’t a separate species but instead is a dualistic organism: welfare policies help secure domestic stability and compliance, while warfare maintains external dominance and internal discipline.

This is why both parties support — to varying degrees — endless war, unlimited bailouts and perpetual welfare. It is worth remembering that George W. Bush empowered both the Welfare State and the Warfare State.

Bush’s Medicare Part D represented the largest capture of the healthcare market since the creation of Medicare in 1965 — demonstrating that this pattern crosses conventional partisan boundaries. Trump’s love of bailouts and massive spending bills only accentuates the point.

Otto von Bismarck, the architect of the modern welfare state, understood this well: “Give the people butter and they will carry the gun.” Who knew the old “iron chancellor” was such a softie?
