1 thought on “Will America Ever Figure out that non-defensive Foreign Wars are Stupid?

  1. What an excellent article!

    Well written, to the point and timely.

    We are being fed so much propaganda and pure horse**** about this “war” it is not funny.

    All these “experts” out there commenting on how poor Russia’s soldiers are doing would do well to go back and review how well our conscripts did in Korea, when some land-speed records were set by our troops running away from the enemy, like the Brits running like rabbits during the Battle of New Orleans, or VEET NAM.

    The “experts” out there who seem to know Putin’s innermost thoughts so they know precisely what his war plan is should consider an article on History.net titled “To Soldier on in a Dying War” by William J. Shkurti on 9/7/2017, where
    we have some operative reality about us to consider, as follows:

    In early March 1971, a Harris Poll found a majority of Americans believed the war in Vietnam to be “morally wrong.”

    Later that month an Americal Division armored cavalry unit refused orders to secure a downed helicopter, and shortly thereafter accusations of carelessness and drug use swirled around one of the Army’s most embarrassing defeats of the war at Firebase Mary Ann.

    In a June Armed Forces Journal article, retired Marine Colonel Robert Heinl wrote about an army in “a state approaching collapse.”

    This kind of soldier (or nonsoldier) is what retired Marine Colonel Robert Heinl wrote about in his June 1971 Armed Forces Journal article.

    “By every conceivable indicator, our Army that now remains in Vietnam is in a state approaching collapse, with individual units avoiding or having refused combat, murdering their officers and non-commissioned officers, drug-ridden, and dispirited where not near mutinous,” Heinl charged.

    This point of view was shared by some still on active duty in the Army.

    Brigadier General Theodore Mataxis, who had led troops both in Vietnam and Korea, declared: “It’s been the opposite of Korea.”

    “There we went in with a bad army and came out with a good one.”

    “In Vietnam we went in with a good army and came out with a bad one.”

    As I say, as we crow to the world about how great we really are, and how pure our motives, which is pure BULL****, we really ought to think about how false that presumption really is.

    And when you hear one of these experts on the radio or TV telling us all about how lousy Putin is as a war leader, and how lousy his army is, give him or her the finger, while asking yourself this important question, to wit: Are Joe Biden and Lloyd Austin any better?

    And once again, thanks to the Cape Charles Mirror for standing up the REAL AMERICAN VALUES possessed by real Americans, not ignorant, short-sighted, greedy, grasping, shallow-thinking hack politicians, many of them evaders of military service in the federal city of Washington. D.C., with its COUNTER-PROPAGANDA stance taken here, which is why the Cape Charles Mirror is and remains a palladium of our liberty as a people to question the actions of these A-HOLES populating that miasmic pestilential swamp down there by the Potomac River in the TEN MILES SQUARE.
