Tomgram: Nick Turse, A Grim Inheritance

2018-08-06

This is to inform their readers that the DoD has blocked the Tom Dispatch website on their computers. For those not familiar with it, the site has since November 2001 hosted criticism of America's wars by military and ex-military writers, and is a project of The Nation Institute. Rantburg is not on its reading list.

#3 And you have made The Lord Very happy with your commitment to protecting all of those Whom you can.

#2 The point I wanted to focus on is the lack of inventiveness.

I know we need Erik Prinse

Also, the OPTEMPO resonates with me as well, but where I find it revealing is the more fight WE have, the more we find. So the endless wars and ETC.

We are managing the majority of this Civilized world with this prowess and ability.

And you have made The Lord Very happy with your commitment to protecting all of those Whom you can.

The question being asked is how much longer is America supposed to help others police the World?

I say as long as you can. All that knowledge is a Global Security Strategy.

However, we may handle it better maybe.

#1 Nick Turse, in particular, has long grimly tracked the growth and spread of Washington’s forever wars and of the Special Operations forces, the semi-secret military that has become, in these years, their heart and soul.

All very bad for business, regime change, gun running and the like. Afghanistan can become just like Indiana or Kentucky, you'll see.

"War is our business, and business is good."
