General Keith Kellogg (2023) argued that using Ukrainians to fight Russia is “the acme of professionalism” as it “takes a strategic adversary off the table” without “using any US troops". This enables the US to focus its resources on China as its primary adversary.
*** Yet, to argue that the US hegemonic strategy entails using proxies to weaken strategic rivals is today considered "pro-Russian propaganda". The only acceptable narrative is that the strategic objective of the US and NATO is to defend human freedoms around the world.
This is an egregious and immoral stain on America that were even contemplating this.
If we act on this, if these plans are executed, we have fully become a rogue nation, devoid of the rule of law, devoid of morality, and fully embracing the adage “might makes right.“
We used to condemn the Soviet Union for these actions, we condemn historical regimes, like the Nazis, who used their power to subdue lesser countries. I pray to God, we do not become the very evil we used to oppose… If that has not, in fact, already happened.
This article is worth a read. Israel literally thought they could purchase our perception of them with money. Now they are angry because despite tens of millions of dollars spent on “influencers”, we hate them more than ever.
It really is a shame they didn’t offer me money to consult for them and explain why this campaign was never going to work.
It’s just a different world. Ad spend and crisis PR firms no longer equal results. In fact, they tend to have the exact opposite desired effect.
You can’t spend (or sue) your way into popularity anymore. Extreme power plays featuring limitless budgets, slick-talking lawyers, and DC connections makes people (left and right) resent you because you clearly resent them and think they are unworthy of an honest conversation.
Try articulating why they should support or believe you outside of “because we’re rich and powerful and will destroy you if you don’t”.
Free advice!

🇺🇸 Emergency services were called to Lindsey Granada's home.
Lindsey Graham is unmarried and has no children. Who would be with him at night in his bedroom to call medics?
Megyn Kelly Exposes Lindsey Graham’s Bloodlust
Megyn Kelly said what Washington refused to say:
“Lindsey Graham is frothing at the mouth. This guy is a homicidal maniac with a bloodlust that is insatiable.”
Then she delivered the line that cuts deepest:
“You have no fcking kids and no fcking clue. Those of us who have children —especially moms with kids in the armed forces — don’t have the same bloodlust that you have.”
Lindsey Graham treated war like theater because other people’s children paid the price.
OK get your tinfoil ready.
Graham inspected a drone factory in Ukraine yesterday. Russia blew up that facility today. Then, tonight, it is announced that Graham is dead from a "sudden illness". No more details
I'd say there is a decent chance that Russia blew up Lindsey Graham.
🇺🇸Marco Rubio in MARCH: "Goal of the war is to change the regime."
🇺🇸Marco Rubio in APRIL: "Goal of the war is to stop 🇮🇷 Iran from making nukes."
🇺🇸Marco Rubio in JULY: "Goal of the war is to return everything 'back to the way it was,' including the Strait of Hormuz." 🤣
Americans have elected a bunch of clowns
@MarioNawfal You are a dumb mother fucker for someone that does interviews all day long and all you got is propaganda to spit in any wars that are going on 😂
🔥 Israel is dangerously overstretched — and now picking fights it can't afford.
Professor John Mearsheimer (@MearsheimerJ) tells that Israel is already tied down in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, Lebanon — and Iran, yet is trying to escalate on another front.
"It’s hard to believe that the Israelis are now picking a fight with the Turks."
He says "(Israel has) suffered a humiliating defeat in Iran," and that "the most important issue from the Israeli point of view has always been Iran's nuclear capability” and both U.S. and Israel have so badly misplayed the nuclear question, Iran now has the leverage to make its own decision.
"There's no way to rescue the situation" — meaning a revised JCPOA and stable U.S. strategy may be slipping out of reach.
Watch the full clip to hear why this matters for the Iran war, U.S. strategy, and the broader Middle East conflict. ▶️https://t.co/eg6oeHVrrc
