Showing that soldier was a brilliant piece of journalism. The fact that war is a for profit venture is very sad. But it's always been that way. For some reason we in the USA think war will never come here.

I've got a feeling that they are wrong.

Since General Bradley Smedley wrote his famous essay "War is a Racket," it's been crystal clear that war is just a tool for war-profiteering, but now everything is a fucking war. War against Russia or China, war against the whole damn world, war against our economy, our country, our sanity... They're now brazen enough to push — DoD that is — fake vaccines because we're all just lab rats for them.

And yes, I fear, given how far they're going, this time war will come home. It won't be Visigoths ransacking the fallen Rome, it will be nukes from the sky. Only Obama would be left to, in some holographic future, blather, like he did in Hiroshima, about "a bright cloudless morning, [when] death fell from the sky and the world was changed."
