Several weeks ago, the New York Times, published an article outlining intelligence reports that Russia was offering bounties to the Afghan Taliban for killing American soldiers. Other media outlets and apparently foreign intelligence agencies corroborated the reports.
What was the first response from the White House? Well nobody briefed the president. Really? Well then […]
After 9/11, the United States had nearly international support as it invaded Afghanistan to find Al Qaeda and drive out the Taliban government who had been harboring them and supporting them. Successful on its face, too many members of both groups managed to escape across the mountains into the border regions of Pakistan. A nation […]
I am not going to expound on this article from the Washington Post: If good men like Joe Maguire can’t speak the truth, we should be deeply afraid.
But I am going to quote the summation.
As Americans, we should be frightened — deeply afraid for the future of the nation. When […]
Official Injury Count From Iranian Attacks In Iraq Now at 34
And the administration just keeps on lying. Lying about our troops and their involvement in conflict and their injuries is just totally unacceptable. So now the injury count…for traumatic brain injuries…is up to 34 from the 11 reported last week. The good news is half of them are back at their posts….but this is just […]

which brings with it a string of rhetorical or not so rhetorical questions:
Why are we training Saudi pilots at bases in the United States?
Why wasn’t this pilot vetted by the Saudis before being sent to the US?
Why wasn’t this pilot vetted by the US before being allowed to come here?
Why was […]

As Turkish troops continue their unjustifiable invasion of Syria and their genocide against the Kurds, President Trump is patting himself on the back for keeping the US out of the bloody war. What?
Trump, in a tweet, said: “Very smart not to be involved in the intense fighting along the Turkish Border, for a […]
Trump on bin Laden and Baghdadi
From Mr. Sulu’s twitter feed this morning:
ISIS is defeated…or it’s not
In the past President Donald Trump declared that ISIS had been defeated. When he pulled US troops out of Syria, he said it was safe to do because ISIS was defeated.
