What I’ve been saying for well over a decade–has Trump done something right for a change??? The knee-jerkers will undoubtedly try and turn this into a negative.
But let’s not forget Trump dancing with the Sheikhs of Saudi Arabia…
And if Afghanistan is his real concern, then this:
Hey America – just on principle this has got to be a low point, historically speaking?
A team of Pentagon officials is heading to Ukraine to help the country rebuild its fractured military, a mission that lawmakers and analysts expect will result in recommendations for greater military assistance…
PS
Apparently Yatsenyuk threw a hissy fit in the parliament and resigned! Were they not Hitlerian enough for this motherfucker’s taste? Or perhaps he stole enough US tax money and IMF loan cash so that it’s not worth the risk anymore?
Kieran Kelly reminds us:
“ I wish people wouldn’t keep characterising Operation Paperclip as being the recruitment of scientists. Klaus Barbie, for example, wasn’t a scientist. He was recruited as a torture and intelligence expert. He was sent by the US to South America where he taught torture, helped engineer a coup, and may have helped track down Che Guevara – presumably using torture. Most scientists were not war criminals and did not need to be smuggled out of Europe.”
The top ten recipients of U.S. foreign assistance this year all practice torture and are responsible for major human rights abuses, according to Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and other leading human rights organisations.
Financial support for these regimes could stand in violation of existing U.S. law, which requires that little or no aid be provided to a country which “engages in a consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights, including torture.”
A report released by the Congressional Research Service lists the following countries as the largest beneficiaries of U.S. government-provided aid planned for 2014:
1. Israel – $3.1bn
2. Afghanistan – $2.2bn
3. Egypt – $1.6bn
4. Pakistan – $1.2bn
5. Nigeria – $693m
6. Jordan – $671m
7. Iraq – $573m
8. Kenya – $564m
9. Tanzania – $553m
10. Uganda -$456m
In 1963, JFK ordered a complete withdrawal from Vietnam.
“(3) On October 11, the White House issued NSAM 263, which states:
The President approved the military recommendations contained in section I B (1-3) of the report, but directed that no formal announcement be made of the implementation of plans to withdraw 1,000 U.S. military personnel by the end of 1963.”
Notably, Noam Chomsky is exposed in this article as pushing the official story, for decades now, minimizing the meaning of this Viet Nam withdrawal. Chomsky has openly spun the facts for questionable motives for a long, long time. His verbal contortions on the 9/11 attacks parallel his approach to the Kennedy assassination.
