War! Who's next?

[HI54UNI]

IMO one of Trump's biggest accomplishments is that he didn't add to our list of wars. I don't see the same happening with Biden. What country is the next to see us bring peace and democracy to them?

Words...nothing but words...

What do I need book learnin’ on? And what about compassion for both sides...like “Live and let live”...not force me to live the way someone else wants???

Generally speaking, Biden will bomb some ME shithole. More specifically, my guess is Syria.

The Unwelcome Return of the Real Purveyors of Violence

With the mainstream media still obsessing about the January 6 “violent coup attempt” at the US Capitol Building, the incoming Biden administration looks to be chock full of actual purveyors of violent coups. Don’t look to the mainstream media to report on this, however. Some of the same politicians and bureaucrats denouncing the ridiculous farce at the Capitol as if it were the equivalent of 9-11 have been involved for decades in planning and executing real coups overseas. In their real coups, many thousands of civilians have died.

An interesting piece with some good examples. I hope this pattern doesn't continue but I don't have a lot of faith in Biden and the establishment politicians won't go back to placating China and sending our troops to die in 3rd world countries with questionable strategic significance.

I've seen a couple other articles like this and it's why I asked the question. I think Syria is one. I could see us venturing into a few shitholes in Africa as well.

Did Trump never do that?

I guess we need to parse out what qualifies as a war.



Also, sounds like Biden is planning to stop US support for Saudi against Yemen. So, that would be starting at -1 if he follows through

He deserves credit if he delivers. There is good reason for skepticism though.

Take returning Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, for example. More than anyone else she is the face of the US-led violent coup against a democratically elected government in Ukraine in 2014. Nuland not only passed out snacks to the coup leaders, she was caught on a phone call actually plotting the coup right down to who would take power once the smoke cleared.
...
Power, who served on President Obama’s National Security Council staff and as US Ambassador to the UN, argued passionately and successfully that a US attack on the Gaddafi government in Libya would result in a liberation of the people and the outbreak of democracy in the country. In reality, her justification was all based on lies and the US assault has left nothing but murder and mayhem. Gaddafi’s relatively peaceful, if authoritarian, government has been replaced by radical terrorists and even slave markets.

Trump had some warmongers (Bolton, Pompeo) in his cabinet as well so maybe the Biden administration will be different than Obama's.

If you count destroying the "JV team" then yeah, he did. Did Trump get us into new quagmires or create any failed states?
