Given that we were wrong & we lost in Vietnam, we were wrong & we lost in Iraq, and we were wrong & we lost in Afghanistan, what will it take to smash the illusion that an unholy alliance with the military industrial complex & a $780 billion defense budget is anything but a scam?

We didn’t lose in Afghanistan. Biden decided to pull our troops out. We were nation building and preventing terrorism. Now Taliban will terrorize again. That’s called logic.

Well, what will it take for you to see that Ukraine is just another arm of the same old scam? Answer that and you've answered your own question.

Vietnam horrors is different than “being wrong” in the middle east. There’s more to the Afghanistan/Iraq/Syria drama than we are aware, I’m sure. Although I think the Taliban are likely going much the same bs as the Vietcong did.

People will have to stop giving the military maniacs the ok to go to their dirty work. You know the lies they use like: Human rights, let’s bomb! Spread democracy, let’s bomb! Look how they treat women, let’s bomb! When we all know it’s always about $ and nothing else.
