Footage is 15 minutes and a real lesson. Watch all of it.
First of all….time to see real soldiers fight a real war in the desert. Even in Vietnam, over 90% of Americans that served did so as little more than tourists. Lying about war had not yet become the art it became when we invaded Iraq and Afghanistan but, I can assure you, nothing told about Vietnam is remotely accurate…except maybe Platoon/ApocalypseNow or…this equally age restricted video, the trailer for Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan
To the best of my knowledge, the last time the US fielded citizen soldiers who fought an enemy on “even ground” was Vietnam. I served with the Marines there…
How do we define “even ground?”
- No air or artillery support
- Inferior weapons to an enemy
- Units that walked to the war…not taxied by helicopters or armour
- No prisoners/no quarter
- Hand to hand
- Continually outnumbered
- Casualty/KIA rates of 30 percent or above per tour, wounded at 100% or higher…
did we forget to talk pay?
The average combat wounded American in Vietnam was making under $150 a month, about 20 percent of average union pay at the time. Today? Compensations for average enlisted runs a bit over $50,000 a year. Until the recent labor shortage, this would double typical factory pay in the US.
What’s the real issue? War is the issue, it always has been.
A statement more and more are making….
“The United States has never fought a war except to profit the Rothschilds”
The same can be said of Britain, France…
It can’t be said of Syria, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Vietnam, Yemen, Nicaragua…
a pattern?
Next time there is a false flag something…perhaps a gas attack in Ukraine…are you going to drive your kids down to the recruiting office?
54 years ago….my father tried to keep me from going to Vietnam. He wasn’t a senator, we weren’t billionaires.
He simply understood the bullshit from living 60 plus years in the US with his eyes open.
Americans have grown weak…fearful…
What has done it? Devices and the “chaos theory” Google driven mind control program that is a thousand times worse than MK Ultra.
Anti-vaxx is the most successful hoax thus far…traced to Google /Jigsaw/Idea Group and a handful of think tanks.
It isn’t just Google.
Every day I review the world’s news services. The FBI actually sent a team here to sit behind me and watch me do it. After almost 50 years of intel crap, I can disassemble bullshit, invariably written so utterly poorly, at a speed that would make Evelyn Wood envious.
It isn’t simply lying…it is erasing anything that might confuse Americans with too many real facts.
What makes the US so vulnerable…makes us dumber than other nations? It’s the spread of Christian nationalism at the same time our moral center eroded to nothing…replacing human values with a perfect brew designed for “believers”…those who choose to believe lies if it makes their tiny little dicks hard or makes them feel important…
- Racism/envy…and broad hatred/envy of their “betters”…people who achieve based on merit and talent who maintain a moral center based on innate humanity…and real strength
- Trumpism…
Let’s explain. Millions of Americans see themselves in Donald Trump. Let’s say you want to fuck a 10 year old girl. TV, something controlled by some pretty bad people…(there are good things on TV) has, for years, been peddling child sex. 80s sitcoms began with “slow burn” ass shots of little girls. Opening shot in films, far too often, would crawn up the fleshy thigh of women…but when they rose higher…cartoon underwear…even diapers?
Were one of the very few who said “What the fuck is this?” or did you have those Trump stirrings? For Trump, just phone up Epstein, do the nightly drive to the vast brownstone gifted Epstein by the mall underwear king.
Remember…you have mobster friends and Michael Cohen. You can have her family threatened…something Cohen said he did 500 times or more…and then, of course, when you are “finished” you can pound the kid bloody….which Trump has been accused of over and over…pounding women bloody in restrooms of restaurants, clubs, department stores….
Admire the man, NDAs, payoffs, pardons…
So what if he conspires with America’s enemies. His enemies are yours but are they?
Truth?
Collectively…the great enemy of humankind may well be you.

Hey Gordon…How about an article on our troops in Yemen that came from Afghanistan. Where they’re at now and what they are doing there. So far as I know, they are still there, as there has been no mention of them whatsoever. Why do I ask? Do the Houthi’s run around with US flags to burn on cue?..or did they come upon it and who had it?
I think it was around 300 per week in the mid 80’s as an e-3 single living on base stateside, can’t remember for sure. But I do remember, if anyone opted out of re-enlisting, or took the early out program,(6 months short of 4 years) a standing offer from Saudi’s in collaboration with the US was immediately presented, offered 100 grand per year for a “fuely”, to go there, and the gift from the US was, you could bring it all back untaxed after your term. I was appalled and never looked back. The program, was reagan and bush1’s “quality force” initiative. The weapons were being stolen , and the cocaine was flowing in. Tatum is right on that. I fueled the C-5 that brought his chopper back from grenada. A British territory. wth
Courageous little buggers aren’t they?
I love watching Houthi combat videos!!! Just seeing these brave guys, wearing skirts and sandals, kicking the living crap out of armed to the hilt Saudi and Emirate chimps has no price!!! The Houthis, in turn, thank the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, their biggest arms suppliers, for their kind donations to the Houthi war effort!
