    "The only sure way to close a local installation, it seems, is to lose a war, as in Vietnam and Afghanistan. That needs to change. America no longer can afford to garrison the globe. The Biden administration should make the US into a normal country again. And that means no more imperial legions stationed around the world for purposes other than America’s defense."

    We have Russia and China hemmed in with military bases. Trump tried to take our troops out of Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, but everyone said traitor, you can't do that. We are illegally in Syria as a foreign invader, and Iraq's government has told us to get the heck out of their country multiple times. Biden refused. We have military bases dotted all over South America and especially Africa. We pull many coups in Africa and no doubt that's what the ones in South America are for. Our Government does the will of the evil billionaires making us a warmonger nation. We are always attacking and killing high numbers of women and children.

    20% of North Korea's civilian population. They fought us to a tye.
    2 million dead in Vietnam. They ran us out of their country.
    Untold dead in Timour Indonesia.
    Destroyed Iraq making sure they will never be a power again.
    Destroyed Libya and high numbers of civilians.
    Tried regime change in Syria but only managed to kill a high number of women and children. The Russians stepped in and stopped us.
    Killed many in Afghanistan. Ran and fled the country. They defeated us.
    Caused the death of over 400,000 Ukrainians trying to take down Russia. We failed and the rest of the non west have rallied with Russia, seeing how their next. Russia has won, and our economy will decline, whether a little phase by phase or an abrupt ending.

    May God turn us from being a warmonger nation to one that's peaceful.
