John, that is a pretty good summary of the situation. I agree wholeheartedly that we should exit NATO once and for all. Let us as a country fix our own mess first. Get out of Europe. We could even come up with a catchy moniker like GOE, Get Out of Europe. USEXIT.
The British Empire back in Nelson’s day marked the beginning of of an isolationist movement that ultimately ended up breaking up the vast majority of holdings It wasn’t the location or use of colonies that caused the rift.
Good to hear from you Brandon! Empires rise and fall, ours has and is falling; better we control the process ourselves versus waiting for others to do it for us. There is going to be more than one E-W pole in the world, unipolar was an exception; we better figure out how we are going to live with that. I'd argue that we've been a mostly destructive force since WW II; 40+ coups, none of which ended well are one indicator, not a single war won is another. And besides, there is no more treasure to offer up to the god of imperialism. That's my 2 cents anyway.

A catchy phrase does not come to mind, maybe GOES, Get Out of Europe Stat! LOL
Excellent! The background is as I remember and the conclusion is one I agree with: admit out guilt, close down NATO. 👌
Thanks Gene. As I was putting it together this morning, I realized how hard it now is to find truth online.

I will agree to disagree about NATO and Ukraine.

War is just a way to print more money which devalues our money.
Then we call this the real inflation which we see when we buy things.
Remember they always fund both sides of a war.
The banksters for sure. And I agree with devaluation masquerading as inflation. The whole thing is a racket.
