War On Peace! Trump has done more damage to the prevailing world order since WWII, diplomacy is dead

[Cellblock2429]

this is one of the most consequential and poorly understood changes in American history

American diplomacy is under siege. Offices across the State Department sit empty while abroad, the military-industrial complex has assumed the work once undertaken by peacemakers. We're becoming a nation that shoots first and asks questions later.

Diplomacy has declined after decades of political cowardice, shortsightedness, and outright malice - but it may just offer America a way out of a world at war

gone are the days of Richard Holbrooke, who made peace in Bosnia and died while trying to do so in Afghanistan

/——/ How stupid. Bwhahahaha Bwhahahaha

ya the bush/mccain diplomacy was so much better.

The world order was Europe and the rest of the Western world allowing the American taxpayers to pay for their defense, and using the money they save to fund cradle-to-grave social programs. So good, let's get rid of that system and let the rest of the world pay its own way.

What year was it that Putin invaded Georgia?
What year was it that Putin invaded Crimea?
What year was it that China invaded islands in the South China Sea and built military installations on them?

So many fking weak moves on the part of our diplomats that every regional thug knew they were free to act with impunity.

I prefer Trump's diplomacy to that of either Bush or Obama and I didn't even vote for Trump. Go figure.

The "Military Industrial Complex" ,whoever the fuck that is, doesn't want a world war.

'I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."
Albert Einstein

Like hell, there is enormous profit in death and destruction

You don't understand the quote do you ? WW III isn't likely to last that long before countries start pushing buttons afterwords what the fuck will your "military industrial complex " sell, rocks and sticks ?

When the time comes Lockheed Martin will be supplying the rocks and sticks for $4k each, Pentagram procurement officers, with an eye to post retirement employment will gladly approve the purchases and testify before congress as to the needs for more and bigger rocks.

Well I guess the recent defeat of ISIS didn't change your mind about Trump did it?

So tell us, how did he defeat isis again?

I've seen the quote before and wondered at the audacity of it. Kissenger's progressive global order is a ruse to cover the creation of rule by the oligarchs.

as usual--BULLSHIT--you have NO proof/etc
..........the US has been royally FKed by these other countries and we finally have a POTUS that is putting America first
...he doesn't take crap

The U.S. has been subsidizing European socialism and their several months of vacation every year since WWII. We could afford it in the 40's, 50's and 60's, but now we have our own socialism to pay for, and need to stop paying for theirs. That's why they are screaming diplomacy is dead because they don't want the gravy train to end. The idiot liberal/progressives believe it and cry Trump is mean! Lol!

Our allies now respect us and our enemies fear us.

"i think, because of Trump, the world is safer today" - Kushner

he couldn't be more wrong, my friends!

President Trump hasn't started any wars at all. Trump is against war, Future President Kushner has nailed it.

The Islamic State is dead, dead, dead. North Korea has made moves toward peace as well.

Trump has made moves to bring Brazil into NATO, and we have never been closer as a people to the Children of Israel and their Prime Minister Netanyahu.

The very title of this thread demonstrates how hyper-sensitive, out of touch with reality, and how completely deranged butt-hurt, sore loser, uncivil, intolerant, hate-manipulated leftist extremist sheep have become, herded by proven criminal Democrats, exposed Obama admindistration Agency sedititious conspiratorial traitors, and collaborating fake news media that have helped the traitors manipulate the sheep in an attempt to undermine / overthrow the elected President of the United States.

The DEMOCRATS have done exactly what they have accused the President and Republicans of doing for e years now - alter the 2016 election and betray the United States.

The Obama DOJ & FBI protected Hillary from indictment and prosecution for her crimes.

The Obama DOJ, NSA, CIA, & FBI conducted an exposed attempted coup, and the Democrats who control the House are determined to finish what the exposed traitors did / could not do.

And the leftist co-conspiratorial media have helped facilitate the entire scandal.

What has gone on these last 3 years has been the biggest scandal and largest case of treason in US history.

In truth, the Democrats not only succeeded in doing what the Russians tried to do, but they have far surpassed any hope they may have had in dividing this nation!

The new progressive Leftist Socialist Democrats have gone SO far to the Left

- not only continuing to attempt their coup but also by embracing anti-Semitism, attempting to legalize murdering newborn babies, attempting to subjectively enforced laws allowing them to seize Americans' guns despite the Constitution, standing with illegals to facilitate an overwhelming invasion I with the goal of making it legal for illegals to vote, etc.... -

...that even Barak Obama recently spoke out to warn them that they are 'forming a circular firing squad'...

The President whose Party and administration perpetrated Obstruction to protect Hillary, knew about Russian interference but did nothing about it for 2 years, and whose agency directors began the on-going coup has seen his creation turn into an out of control monster.

The Democratic party has spiraled so insanely out of control even Obama is startled and warning them that they need to rein in the insanity...



Obama worries that progressives risk creating ‘circular firing squad’

What wars are going on under Trump that weren’t going on when he was sworn in?

You're cracking up. Clinton took us into 9/11 which Bush had to fight. Then Obama destroyed all that Bush put into order and total chaos ensued in the form of ISIS, millions dead, displaced or fleeing the Middle East. And the floppy-eared piug-fucker got a Nobel for that.

And now that Trump has all but destroyed ISIS, Gotten Russia back into place, has the Chinese at the bargaining table and has talked Little Kim down from shooting rockets over Japan, threatening our mainland every other day and sought peace with South Korea, you have the GALL to come on here and dump your bullshit on him?

NEWS FLASH for you simpleton---- the pre-Trump "World Order" SUCKED. It HAS sucked. The "diplomacy" you speak of was nothing more than American-acquiescence and bribery. Trump is taking the bullshit apart now and throwing it back where it belongs.

 

[basquebromance]

diplomacy is a matter of life and death, my friends!

 

[basquebromance]

world peace is more easily mocked than it is achievable my friends!

 

[Staidhup]

War on Peace? BS. Peace results when one has the power to defend oneself with overwhelming force. To state otherwise is nonsense, regardless of what your fruitcake professors taught you in college.

 

[Staidhup]

The next thing these morons will be claiming is that peace can be purchased with money, capitulation, diplomacy, and appeasement. Diplomacy is only successful with force backing it up.

 

[basquebromance]

Trump has endorsed Gen. Hafter in Libya, an authoritarian attacking a United Nations backed government. Just like his reversal of North Korea sanctions weeks ago, Trump’s decision contradicts the statements of his own cabinet. Bad judgment and incompetence are a toxic mix.
