And to posit that this is all being done in a big rush before the incoming administration can bring peace. Uh huh. A less peaceful group than those appointed by 47 thus far would be challenging to assemble.
The intermingling of corporate interests and a form of government that nobody believes is "for the people" is just about complete. Faced with the fact that very few want to be soldiers in the imperial wars corporations said, Great, we'll just replace them with a lot of expensive hardware, like drones. We borrow the money to finance this, CEOs make big bucks, and winning is not the point.
Then there's coverage of the initial Russian response, which was to use its Intercontinental Ballistic Missile for the first time ever. The ICBM released five other missiles over Ukraine that air defense systems there could do nothing to intercept. These were not nuclear missiles but a point being made by use of the delivery system is: they could have been.
Back to the U.S. lurching toward Armageddon with who exactly at the wheel? Here's an unsubstantiated internet rumor to chew on:
People say that the alphas[sic] all have bunkers with fantastic life support systems and elaborate security provisions. Or that some of them will be blasting off for outer space to escape nuclear war fallout.
This fails to explain in my mind how the lust for even more wealth could bring someone to the brink of destroying Eden, our planet.
I can only hope for cooler heads in Russia and China to prevail, or possibly for coders anywhere to figure out how to interfere with the ultimate deployment.
Hey, a girl can dream.
