The entire deep state apparatus is, of course, dependent on what President Dwight Eisenhower called "The Military-Industrial Complex" which, in turn (of course) is dependent upon constant warfare. Sure, the swamp makes a ton of money on illegal drugs, legal drugs, sex trafficking, etc., but WAR is the really big prize.
When 360+ U.S. "representatives" of the DEEP STATE voted to keep wars going yesterday, we got the clear picture THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF BOTH PARTIES ARE REALLY ONE PARTY.....THE WAR PARTY....and that the other 60 who voted against contant warfare MAY be actual representatives of the people (but I wouldn't count on it.)
(nytimes.)
The truth is there is not one single member of the so-called "people's House" that stands totally, 100%, without exception, for the Constitution and against the Deep State...not one. (Those 60 may be those least beholden to military contarctor donations for re-election.) In the Senate...maybe Mike Lee can be trusted...but definitely not Rand Paul who stabbed his own father in the back by endorsing DEEP STATER MITT ROMNEY for President when his own dad was running for President, and paid for his seat in the Senate by kissing up to the CFR and to the ADL and AIPAC. In short, NO ONE IS REPRESENTING THE PEOPLE!!
360+ of the 420+ who voted think that we still have a responsibility to be the policemen of the world, despite decades of these same people saying they were against that.

Yes, I feel terrible about the Kurds, and they long since should have had a Kurdistan of their own (carved out of northern Iraq) if our leaders were really concerned about the downtrodden. These "leaders" (including Trump) could use the U.N. to protect them--if that deeply corrupted bureaucratic morass even has the real ability to do something like that--their whole raison d'etre, by the way...
BUT, stop supporting these WAR SUPPORTERS, people!! I don't care what party you are, I KNOW THE VAST MAJORITY of you can agree on at least that one thing...the USA should NOT be the policemen of the globe.
I've rarely seen such PROOF that the "representatives" and those they purport to represent are SO DIFFERENT than I did yesterday with this vote. Clearly, 70-80% of the American people OF BOTH PARTIES want an end to never-ending interventionism and no-win wars, but only 15% of the U.S. House wants THAT???? You've got to be kidding me.

That spells TROUBLE, for sure....
