So does this mean you want to cut defense spending?
I don't understand what you are trying to say.

I agree with you. We need to cut defense spending.

You do not agree with me, Fred. You agree with your hallucinations. You are just like rayb and sourmash.

Sorry, from your posts I thought you were concerned about the power and influence of the military industrial complex.
But if you want to keep increasing military spending then you obviously don't care.

Tell me how Biden has reinforced our defenses.
Biden is not building up the US military, he is squandering our resources. Who benefits by this?
Bueller?....Bueller?

The "goat" provides two online reports.
The first of these reports, published in August, is from the Global Times.
This is at the upper right of the front page of the Global Times.
It's been almost two years since the second report was published on Reuters.
I wish I knew more "behind the scenes" about the talks between the Biden administration and Russia, when the Biden admin was (apparently) trying to dissuade Russia from invading Ukraine in force.
I don't trust Putin. And I'm not 100% enthused about Xi.[This message has been edited by rinselberg (edited 01-22-2024).]

quote | The United States and Britain carried out large-scale military strikes on Monday against eight sites in Yemen controlled by Houthi militants, according to the two countries. The strikes signaled that the Biden administration intends to wage a sustained and, at least for now, open-ended campaign against the Iran-backed group that has disrupted traffic in vital international sea lanes.
The strikes—the eighth in nearly two weeks—were bigger and broader than a recent series of more limited attacks against individual Houthi missiles that the Americans said popped up on short notice. Those missiles were hit before they could be fired at ships in the Red Sea or the Gulf of Aden.
But the planned nighttime strikes on Monday, which hit radars, as well as drone and missile sites and an underground bunker, were smaller than the first retaliatory salvos on Jan. 11. Those hit more than 60 targets in nearly 30 sites across Yemen in an expansion of the conflict in the Middle East that the Biden administration had sought to avoid. . . . |
