As some readers of this blog know, I am a co-host — with Colonel Mike — of a podcast named “Two Mikes”. Pretty clever,eh? Anyway, we recorded a podcast yesterday and the following is a slightly expanded version of its summary.
————————————
“Today, The Two Mikes had no guest but discussed the mad media cascade of ignorant comments about Afghanistan. First, this day is not a time to regret what is occurring in Afghanistan. Instead, it is time to celebrate another victory for America First. The clear defeat of U.S. military forces and the Bush, Obama and Biden administrations in Afghanistan, was entirely predictable; a broken-down, old timer like Dr. Scheuer predicted it in writing even before U.S. troops hit the ground in Afghanistan.
Why? Because history since Alexander the Great shows the Afghans unite and fight only when a foreign invader arrives in their country, and they never stop fighting until that invader is sent home in defeat. The British Army, the Red Army, and the U.S. military have learned that lesson; the Chinese Army is now coming to the plate and will learn the same lesson.
The massive media crocodile tears for “poor Afghans” who no longer will be indoctrinated with “Western Values (?)”, should instead be loud cheers for the end of a pointless American war, and the end of what seemed to be an endless expenditure of blood and treasure. The prattle of retired U.S. military officers about dishonoring the fallen by leaving Afghanistan is really arguing the absurd contention that “so many have been killed and maimed that we must fight and keep incurring more casualties in a lost cause to honor the fallen.”
As for the Western media’s honking about the horror now at hand for “liberated Afghan women” and those Afghans who experienced “a taste of democracy” is just more shameful shilling for the usual justification for U.S. military interventionism abroad; namely “to make foreigners more like us.” Both categories of people are small, their numbers no more than a trifle in an Afghan population of forty million. (NB: And, after all, the Taleban would never kill 61-plus million innocent humans as the Democrats, Planned Parenthood, and the American Medical Association have in the United States.)
Today, then, is a day to be thankful for the end of an unnecessary war, the end of killed and wounded American military personnel in a country where the republic has no life-and-death interests, and, finally, for the sudden slackening in demand for prosthetic devices for our veterans.
The hardest part of this day is to recognize a certain truth; namely, that both parties are filled to the brim with terminal liars. Our troops did not suffer in Afghanistan to protect our liberties, which neither the Taleban nor al-Qaeda ever threatened. They suffered there because stupid and grifting politicians and generals sent them to fight a war they never intended to win. Their blood, limbs, and minds were sacrificed by that lot so they skim fortunes from war budgets and pass domestic legislation that would restrict and reduce civil liberties in the United States.
Find that hard to believe? Well, the legislation passed for the Bush-Obama-Biden war on terrorism is now being used to power the Obama-Biden-China campaign to end free speech in the United States, as well as the right of assembly, the right to bear arms, and the right to refuse to take a murderous gene therapy barely disguised as a vaccine.
We can only hope that the U.S. military will now turn and destroy those miscreants who, since September, 1945, have been the remorseless war-causers and cynical tormentors of not only brave Marines and soldiers, but also of their parents, children, grandparents, wives, sisters, husbands and brothers as well.”
