1. It’s no longer a mono-polar world and Trump is implementing the Monroe Doctrine to keep China and Russia out of the Americas (North and South). This includes forcing Venezuela to use the dollar in trade with China and Russia. Brazil is already a problem in terms of BRICS. The bankers are telling Trump to not allow the anti-dollar contagion to spread to Venezuela.

I can answer that. And yes, Admiral Bradley has… he was the JSOC commander for a while. He has ordered, as he said, hundreds, probably more than a thousand of these strikes in different parts of the world. Now, first thing is they were not at the point that they were struck trying to flip the boat back over. So let’s just dismiss that. Also, they had no communications devices. We have no evidence that they attempted to communicate, or they weren’t in a position to communicate with anyone, so you can’t argue, and Admiral Bradley didn’t argue that they were trying to flip the boat over and continue on in that regard, so what you’ve heard from Senator Cotton and some others is simply false. That is not an accurate depiction of what was going on in the boat. Now, bear with me as I make this argument for you. So, and this ties back into the larger mission. So, the mission was to kill all 11 people on the boat and destroy the cocaine. Minor little sub-point, by the way, there’s all this, you know, attacking the Washington Post for misreporting that he gave a kill everyone order. Well, that depends on how you look at it. There were 11 people on the boat, and the order was Kill them all. It was not a capture or detain. So, it is not inaccurate for whoever in the Pentagon leaked to the Washington Post, he said, kill everyone. That’s not inaccurate. Now, it’s a little unfair, in the sense that when you say that, it implies that, okay, you’ve got 5 people in an apartment building with 100 others, just blow the whole thing up, I don’t care. The 11 people who were contained in that killed them all, were deemed to be legitimate targets as affiliates of one of these narco-terrorist groups. Also. The order was not no survivors. It didn’t say, no matter the situation, kill them all. So… but, the order was to kill all 11 people on the boat. So you got 2 left surviving. The argument starts with the fact that The belief that the cocaine on that boat could have somehow survived that initial strike, and was conceivably in the bow of the boat, beneath you know, what we can see, the part under the water. Now, I find that fantastical in the first place, because a boat, you see the first strike, whole thing’s on fire. It breaks in half, it goes down. Is it possible that some drugs were contained underneath? I suppose it’s possible, but it’s highly unlikely. But even worse than that, the notion is That cocaine still could have gotten to the United States, and they’re treating that cocaine like it’s a weapon. Basically, they’re treating that image of those two people on that boat like a situation where, I don’t know, you see a car bomb headed towards an embassy or something. It’s struck, it seems like it’s incapacitated, but is it incapacitated? We don’t know, there’s still a couple people there. Maybe they can complete the mission, maybe they can get that bomb to the building and blow it up. And that, too, is kind of absurd, alright? Even if there is some cocaine in that boat, they are in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea with no power of locomotion, no communication devices. They are drifting with the current. A fact, by the way, that Admiral Bradley admitted, okay? That they weren’t… but his argument was. The boat could have conceivably drifted somewhere, where some other, you know, people associated with this drug cartel could have met up with them and continued the mission. That is the argument, alright? Treating the cocaine like it is a full-scale weapon.
