What We’re Seeing Today Didn’t Start Yesterday — It Started the Night Obama Won

by

The first big shift was philosophical. After the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Obama administration openly argued that America needed to move away from large, unilateral military commitments. The 2010 National Security Strategy said U.S. leadership could not be defined by war alone and emphasized partnerships, international institutions, and diplomacy over long-term occupation. That sounds reasonable on paper, and after two exhausting wars, a lot of Americans agreed. But it also marked a clear departure from the post-Cold War mindset where the United States acted as the unquestioned global enforcer. Instead of “we lead, others follow,” the tone became “we lead, but only if everyone signs off first.”

The bottom Line Up Front is that Iran effed around for nearly 45 years before the US finally had enough of their worldwide terrorism sponsorship, saber rattling, murder of Americans and meddling in the gulf, and it is about time that they got punched in the mouth-hard-and repeatedly-which began in earnest with last year’s strikes on their nuclear missile development activities.

America the Beautiful, America the Invaded

As many as 15-20 million illiterate and unskilled migrants invaded our nation during the horrendous four years of the Biden administration. Hundreds of thousands—possibly millions—of them were violent criminals, slackers looking for a welfare check, or extremists here to set up terrorist cells.

We’re Great at Regime Change… It’s the Aftermath We Keep Screwing Up

by

Every time the United States gets involved in a foreign conflict, the opening act is usually impressive. Precision strikes, shock-and-awe, special operations raids, satellites, drones, cyber, carrier groups—the whole high-tech orchestra. When it comes to breaking things, the U.S. military is the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. Regimes fall, palaces empty, statues get pulled down, and cable news runs dramatic graphics about “the end of an era.”

Using the Veil of Religion to Advance Tyranny

by

We are in a war in which our enemies use the veil of religion to seize power. Few understand this war in which past losses resulted in hundreds of millions of innocents being murdered, tortured, imprisoned or living for decades to centuries under tyranny. The use of religion to seize power is ancient in concept – and often uses one of two approaches. One is to attack or vilify a religion to advance tyranny. The other, to use the veil of religion to hide insidious efforts to advance tyranny. The genius (and danger) in using religion, in this perpetual cognitive war, is its subtlety. There are no tanks in the streets. Rather, memes, sermons, rhetoric, and false narratives and manufactured victims are employed using our cognitive biases (e.g., emotion, moral outrage) that erode shared reality over time.
