    The army of Afghanistan and Iraq were destroyed by Bush 43. Surely you will defend the Iraqis who we Americans totally got rid of the Corrupt Saddam regime. We assisted leaders in Iraq to convert to a fully functioning aimed at freedom government and it was up to them to keep their freedom.

    I am seeking a path to agreeing with you. Sorry, seems unlikely.

    Prime on Amazon offers a lot better view of this nations military forces and operations. Suggest you seek their various films.

    That would be like Russia or China nuking Mexico or Canada. Fallout is deadly too.

    Sure, I'll get right on that.

    The US is becoming like NK, economically cannibalizing its own society to project empire, endless occupation and global military hegemony abroad to benefit the Wall Street/donor/”job creator” class alone.

    Hey, you almost got away with that.

    It was not Reagan who armed the Afghanistan forces. That was none other than Charlie Wilson (D) of Texas. Charlie fought with his own party and won.

    Looks to me as if your goal is we can whip the world and of course some aliens who came here for a few days at the Mediterranean.

    You are determined to show us all how powerful the USA is.

    By the way, given the rich pay in the area of 90 percent of our taxes, I suppose they want something in return. A world safe from Kim Jong Un.

    I've seen those kinds of charts before. They are not remotely accurate. For one the U.S. has no real idea how much the Chinese and Russians spend on their militaries.

    They have also been eliminating European citizens fro a couple hundred years in several different ways. We are the only ones in their way and we have become suicidal with apathy.
    Even worse they use our technology, money and human resources to destroy us. Look who dies in their wars.

    Ours is uniquely large and expensive, though. We have a global military presence to maintain, and we work hard to keep our technologies on top. Look at how massively expensive the F-35 has been. No other country could possibly come close.

    Democrats mantra is the rich are low taxed yet to them, the poor and middle class are heavily taxed. But official government reports say it is not true.

    Why would posters on this forum risk speaking up for NK and run down America a lot?

    I'm fine with more and more disparity, it is unsustainable and another path will emerge from the ruins.

    And don't forget, our other better and expensive airplane, the F-22. Kim Jong Un is way over his head. We have submarines that can finish him off. This is not the army or navy nor air force of this nations 1950's. We have some fancy slap them silly arms.

    Ha ha, yeah? And you have no idea how much you spend on yours either. By design. You have more accurate sources? Love to see them, please share.

    The poor and middle class have record amounts of earnings that are joined by record low rates. I prefer we pay the same sum per taxed person and this will keep the public far more interested in slashing spending than they presently are. We made a grave mistake with this unbalanced system of taxes where the rich get plundered by the rest of us. We need not care abut spending since the rich pay our debts for us.

    You'd rather it starts by the U.S. invading than by their enemies?

    Besides, it's a deterrent, not an aggression. Of course, they could be working together to become one world power using our own technologies to conquer us.

    Well, that's got to be proven.

    I believe you believe you proved we outspend all other nations combined. Sure, we can kick tail and not need to run away.

    In the U.S. the defense budget is a matter of record you can verify from thousands of sources.

    How is communism the answer, rather than the end?

    Pffffffffffffffft, your rich uncoupled themselves economically from this society beginning back in the 1980s when the gap began, intentionally. Now over half the wage earning population drags home lees than $30K per year in what used to be an economy predicated upon mass consumption. Please do go on with more of this, it will crumble, only a matter of time before you will again turn to the working and underclasses to bail the aristocracy out with socialism.

    Ah, so no then? I had hoped for more from you. And no, no one knows how much we really spend, and that my friend is a serious problem. Course we also provide arms to terrorists and Wahabists too, so there's that.

    Who suggested communism? Why is it that americans cannot stand to be confronted with the weaknesses of their own system?
