Jun 28, 2021 ABC News video:

“Kirby said the U.S. acted within its legal rights and said the airstrikes were a matter of self-defense.”

US in Iraq for defensive purposes?

 

Life wasn’t meant to change after the big Saddam Hussein takedown.

Six US Presidents have now ordered precision airstrikes in the region.

We’ve been seeing videos like this out of Iraq since 1991 Desert Storm:

 

What stays the same?

Newspeople fail to ask questions.

Bad guys in the region are not wanting to cooperate.

The press seems supportive of the GWOT.

Wars go on no mater what political party or personality is in the White House.

Both major parties and the press are OK with undeclared/unwon wars.

 

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi-

Defensive airstrikes in the Iraq-Syria border region are for protecting:

“…the military heroes who defend our freedoms…”

 

Coalition of the willing update:

US troops in eastern Syria attacked after US Air Force planes carried out airstrikes near the Iraq-Syria border

The Lies of the National-Security State

 

Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented, won or shut down?

The Dept. of Defense was nowhere to be found on 911.

We haven’t won a war since.

The Dept. of Defense has a truly poor track record for winning wars since DOD was established way back in 1949.

 

Sending US Troops to Syria, Lebanon, Somalia, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia, etc., is somehow defending the constitution?

What becomes of American rights and freedoms and the constitution when the US returns from distant lands without a victory?

Whatever happened to the formal congressional declaration of war?

This would be the time to hear from elected leaders and top generals Re: lessons learned on all the issues that have doomed the Department of Defense track record for winning wars since DOD was established in 1949.
