The Neo-Cons want to fight Russia and China. Well, that’s a bold ambition. The question I have is fight them with what? Or should I say with whom? Because despite all the gear and munitions we’ve handed over to the Ukraine I’m sure we could ratchet up domestic production of weapons and munitions if we decided we want to. But I don’t think we have an army to use those weapons.
Recruiting doesn’t seem to be going well. The demographic that the military has always depended on to fill their ranks has been declared the enemy. Straight white men are white supremacists and not to be trusted or promoted in the ranks. So, it looks like minorities, women and sexual deviants will have to take up the slack.
But will they? I’m guessing they won’t. And if war seems imminent, I think the shortfall will get much, much worse. And that’s as it should be. Fighting for your country is a duty. But when you’ve been told it’s no longer your country then it goes without saying that you must step aside and let the new owners bear the burden and make Joe Biden proud.
And I think it’s important that the new country use its new flag. I think the rainbow flag should be hoisted high over the ranks of the high heeled drag queen warriors. Why, if the Russians and Chinese even hear that these fierce soldiers are going to be the tip of the spear, I doubt they even show up. They’ll surrender unconditionally and allow the victorious army to sashay through downtown Moskow and Beijing to the marshal beat of that proud anthem, “It’s Raining Men.”
Seriously, I think Washington is hoping to get the Poles and Baltic nations to attack Russia for us. The question is whether we’re willing to start chucking nukes when the Russians start using them on these NATO partners. I can’t make up my mind. But chances seem good I may find out.
As far as the Chinese, I don’t think it will get beyond a war of words. I don’t believe the US navy still commands the respect that it used to. The Chinese won’t even have to call our bluff. Taiwan does not want to be drawn into a confrontation with China. They want the status quo to go on for as long as it can. And in fact, I believe that the Koreans and Japanese probably feel the same way.
But as I said, I think it’s extremely likely that Biden’s neo-con military and state department may manage to trigger World War III. How exactly it starts; Ukraine or Kaliningrad or the Baltics or Poland is unclear. But the options are all there and it doesn’t look like there’s anyone smart enough or sane enough to prevent it.
It’s sort of ironic that while madmen like Stalin and Mao were in charge of Russia and China guys like Eisenhower and Nixon were smart and sane enough to prevent the situation from boiling over into nuclear war. But now fate has given us Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. I guess I should be able to see the humor in this. And I guess I do. But the laughter is a little like hysteria and the smile is more like a grimace.
Well, hail to the chief. Go get them Joe and good luck, you’ll need it.
If Joe tries to order a first strike, I hope “football” draws his sidearm and blows what brains Joe has left out of his numbskull.
I kinda think everyone on the “team” is completely on the same page and Joe is way down on the decision making pecking order. I’m just trying to figure out a way to move the kids and grandkids out of the primary targeting arena.
