Mr. Hartmann, a point by point response to your words would be a waste of time because you seem to have swallowed the kool aid. The Federation of American Scientists listed 201 military actions by the US dating from the end of WWll, up until the beginning of the 21st century.

Mr. Hartmann, a point by point response to your words would be a waste of time because you seem to have swallowed the kool aid. The Federation of American Scientists listed 201 military actions by the US dating from the end of WWll, up until the beginning of the 21st century. This does not count all the military attacks by the Neoliberals and Neocons since then. And there have, we all know, been some duzies since then. You are mis-informed. The US, a democracy, has started countless wars, both large and small. Your theme simply does not pass the empirical test.
You have done an admirable job of mental backflips and summersaults in your attempt to support your claim. You point out that George W. lied to us about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq as though that lie was somehow an exception that proves the rule. Gee, what else is new? The biggest lies national leaders tell is always to their own people. Is this a revelation? I squirm when I recall how Colin Powell destroyed himself on TV in public as he deliberately lied to the UN. He was lying to Americans.
Frankly, I am surprised at you. You want the US to continue to help Ukrainians die for a lost American cause. 600,000 dead at last count. How many seriously wounded? Never have I seen you talk about the unimaginable slaughter of human beings in Gaza. When the Russians put missiles on the Island of Cuba; JFK brought the world to the brink of nuclear annihilation. Putin's response to Nato trying to enter Ukraine is not surprising. Chicken Hawks in Washington from Wolfowitz and Brezezinski and leading up to Crazy Old Joe Biden have treated the extinction of the human species by our own hands as though it were a play in a football game.
Putin is not Charlemagne, not Napoleon, not Hitler, not Lenin, not Peter the Great.
Putin is doing what JFK did. What would be the response if Russia or China installed weapons in Mexico or Canada? Let's wake up and open our eyes.
