Nazi war crimes

Your not going to be able to paper over America's responsibility for Nazi war crimes in Ukraine. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 11:56, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Excuse me, I will bring to your attention this: [[Essay: Russian war crimes in Ukraine|Russian war crimes in Ukraine]].

In addition, there is this matter: Russia defector reveals 'majority' of people inside Kremlin unhappy with war in Ukraine, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, June 2023 and Russia defector reveals 'majority' of people inside Kremlin unhappy with war in Ukraine, ABC News video, July 2023, video.

So you are in no position right now to complain relative to this complaint. Conservative (talk) 17:35, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

If America is to remain the leading power, it cannot do it by funding, arming, and training Nazis and jihadis to fight its wars. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 11:58, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Ukraine has not played a big role in the history of the USA. America played a big role in defeating the Nazi Germany. And the War in Ukraine could very well be a blip on the radar of the history of the USA. During a period of recession/stagflation, Americans could easily tire of funding Ukrainians. And a cold winter without lots of Russian gas/oil could dampen Europeans desire to help the Ukrainians. Conservative (talk) 12:46, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

That's what you think. You're brainwashed by Western/CIA media. That's not what 88% of the planet knows and thinks. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 12:46, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Ukraine is not an influential country - except for its wheat/agricultural production. It's GNP is not that big. And militarily it could not have fended off the Russians without the help of NATO countries. Furthermore, it is a corrupt country. Conservative (talk) 12:52, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Nazis and jihadis have been disgraced and defeated. Since the U.S. withdrawal from Iraq under Obama, the U.S. has depended on Jihadis and Nazis to fight its wars and maintain its global power, cause the U.S. lacks the Machismo to do it itself with its woke military. Do you really think the rest of the planet does not see this RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 12:55, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Americans tired of funding South Vietnam after the Vietnam War. It could tire of funding the Ukrainians. I am already seeing signs of "War in Ukraine fatigue" in the USA/Europe. Conservative (talk) 12:59, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

You didn't read the CIA operatives talking points I posted on Main Page talk:

"And so there will probably be changes because the Republican majority is probably still largely in support of Ukraine because a lot of them still understand that this is not regional war between Ukraine and Russia. This is more a Russian attempt to challenge the status quo and status quo of America in the world. And so there. Is that clear?"

So you're not even of that group. You think it's a regional war. Nobody in America but the most naive of either party believe that. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:02, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

You think this is some far away conflict like in Myanmar or Rwanda that doesn't affect you. You should just refrain from discussing it, cause you haven't the faintest idea of the issues involved. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:07, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Americans are tired of endless wars. The politicians may have to bow to public pressure. Conservative (talk) 13:10, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

The bottom line is that I don't think the War in Ukraine is going to prevent the USA from being the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future due to some of its strengths and due to various weaknesses of China and Russia. Conservative (talk) 13:12, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

The U.S. is fighting to remain the leading power, and is losing badly. You should just shut up about it til you understand more. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:14, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

The United States will not be the first gigantic military power that broke itself to maintain that military power while destroying its own social, political, and economic underpinnings. That's what Rome was. That's what Germany was. That's what the USSR was, and countless other examples. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:17, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

All empires/countries eventually fade in power, fall or break up. The essay is not titled "The United States will be the leading power in the world forever" nor is it titled "The United States will be the leading power in the world until Jesus returns". Conservative (talk) 13:22, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

In population, Ukraine is about 1/10 the size of the U.S. They have lost 500 a day killed for the last two months. Imagine the U.S. losing 5,000 a day for two months, or 300.000 soldiers. And only because the U.S. government and taxpayer wanted that to happen. Do you seriously believe there are no consequences for that behavior? RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:23, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

So you think America can just ignore its murderous behavior, pick up the pieces, and move on. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:27, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Why do we criticize the murderers, Obama and Biden, who created this mess? Are we just barking up the wrong trees over nothing? RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:29, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

RobS, the Roman Empire lasted about 1,400 years and there was a lot of bloodshed involved. The world isn't always fair Rob. The Bible says "the god of this world" is Satan. There is still a lot of evil in the world. Conservative (talk) 13:30, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Why do we try to warn people of the danger of psychotics like Obama and Biden, then when the consequences of their actions and the people who voted for them is before our face, we ignore and deny it? Do we owe Obama & Biden voters an apology?

Obama brought the Ukrainian Nazi regime to power. Biden started the war with Russia. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:33, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

RobS, I am not an idealist nor am I a political ideologue. I am a realist. If a meteorologist predicts a hurricane, do you call him up and say "How can you have the nerve to predict a hurricane? Don't you realize all the people who are going to be hurt?"

I gave my strengths and weaknesses of the USA, China and Russia and I stand by my prediction. As Martin Luther said, "Here I stand. I can do no other." Conservative (talk) 13:42, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

[Criticism: If you're going to make the claim of being a realist, don't immediately follow it up with an imaginary metaphor. It does not make logical sense.]

This is the woke generation's war. They started it. They have to fight it. Us people of an older generation can only advise the younger generation. But they are the ones who have to fight.

My advice: Don't get Nazis and radical Islamic fundamentalists to fight your wars for you.

And if you really believe LGBT rights are worth fighting and dying for, God bless you. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 13:53, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

What war crimes were these. The one when Russian soldiers tied civilians arms behind their back and shot them by the dozen? Perhaps the one when Russian soldiers/airmen shelled shopping malls/rail stations and hospitals? can you please clarify?--176.251.208.208 14:38, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Read the Amnesty International report(s). Don't worry, the Russian Investigatory Committee is compiling evidence for the upcoming Nazi War Crimes Tribunal. You'll have to tear yourself away from your crap-filled trough of MSM fake news and look for it cause of Western "democratic" censorship. RobS^{Ich bin ein breakfast taco} 15:49, August 21, 2022 (EDT)

Have you read [https://www.conservapedia.com/User:Conservative%27s_essays#China all my essays on China and Russia]? These countries don't come close to the USA as far as being nice places to live. More people are leaving these countries than emigrating to them. The verdict is in from the "people vote with their feet" jury. Conservative (talk) 09:38, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

The title actually is correct

The Book of Revelation says:

What is the second beast of Revelation? None other than the United States. It rises right as the first beast, evidently being Papal Rome, receives a deadly wound (late 1700s, when General Berthier took Pope Pius VI captive), is Lamb-like (the U.S. was founded on respecting separation of church and state unlike European theocracies), and becomes a global superpower (since it's deemed a "beast"). So the U.S. will eventually spearhead Papal Rome's agenda of enforcing an apostate Sunday law, which will be the mark of the beast, and in that sense, indeed will be a "the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future." Unfortunately, not in a positive sense though. —LT ^{(Mark 8:36)} Sunday, 21:39, January 14, 2023 (EST)

I thought the EU was the beast when it was called the Common Market and had only 10 horns. Now it's up to 29. RobS^{Give Peace a chance} 22:48, January 14, 2023 (EST)

Council on Foreign Relations

Oh, so now you have [https://www.conservapedia.com/Essay:_The_United_States_will_be_the_leading_power_in_the_world_for_the_foreseeable_future#The_Myth_of_Multipolarity:_American_Power.E2.80.99s_Staying_Power ''Foreign Affairs'' magazine, the official publication of] the Council on Foreign Relations, as a source for your assertions. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 22:27, July 28, 2023 (EDT)

More nonsense: "Mearsheimer and Bildt agree that our current multipolar world", followed up by "The Myth of Multipolarity".

As I've said dozens of times, you do not listen to Mearsheimer and you are speaking out of both sides of your mouth when you say "I agree with Mearsheimer." RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:03, July 29, 2023 (EDT)

No, you can't wing it. When you're in a hole, stop digging. He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:49, July 29, 2023 (EDT)

In Essay writing, you need to have your thoughts organized before you begin the Essay; you can't wing it and make up your views in real time as you are writing - particularly when your sole motivation for writing is vindictiveness against a particular person. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:52, July 29, 2023 (EDT)

I pity anyone who stumbles across this Essay, it not only generates confusion about the subject matter, it detracts from the credibility the author built up elsewhere on other subject matter, creating more confusion. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 10:05, July 29, 2023 (EDT)

Feel free to create the essay: Essay: The United States will NOT be the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future. I very much doubt that you will given your preference for contentious disputing rather than actually making well-thought-out, sound arguments.

And unfortunately, given your penchant for rudely creating templates which coverup up civil discussions/debates, your use of logical fallacies and your use of stubbornly asserting things without providing any proof, we will not be having a discussion on this matter.

RobS, read Conservapedia's article Genetic fallacy.

In addition, I look at a variety of news sources from a variety of political perspectives. I also look at non-news sources for information. Conservative (talk) 09:01, August 9, 2023 (EDT)

Nah. I'm not interested at all in learning about the debating skills you learned from David Gerard at Rationalwiki. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:14, August 9, 2023 (EDT)

And you do a poor job of pantomiming Gerard since you've adopted his debating technique. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:19, August 9, 2023 (EDT)

I learned about logic via my Logic course in college and via self-study post college. And there are a number of websites that focus on the topic of logic that offer better information about logical fallacies and related information than RationalWiki.

You should try being logical for a while and see if you like it. You would think far more clearly and make better arguments/content. Conservative (talk) 09:21, August 9, 2023 (EDT)

bla bla bla...I've seen Gerard hand your head back to you in his hands too many times, making you speechless. It doesn't work with me. I use the nobsian method. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:23, August 9, 2023 (EDT)

Deny that the USA has a much bigger GNP than Russia and lose all credibility! Conservative (talk) 09:04, August 20, 2023 (EDT)

Bad sources

You're still using bad sources. The Moscow Times, published in Brussels, Belgium, is a CIA outfit.

Try making CP an educational source, not a globalist mouthpiece. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 10:40, August 15, 2023 (EDT)

Given the crazy sources you cite at this wiki like Caitlin Johnstone at [[Talk:Essay: The rising rule of communist idiocracy in China]], you are hardly in a position to quibble about my sources.

What a joke

[[File:USA GNP growth from january 1947 to January 2023.jpg|300px|thumbnail|center|Chart of the growth of U.S. GNP from January 1947 to January 2023. <br /> <br /> A great strength of the United States is its very consistent grow [sic] of its GNP over decades and its quick recovery the few times its GNP has gone down.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4eIbWdfdZk Should You Be Bullish on America?] ]]

"A great strength of the United States is its very consistent grow [sic] of its GNP over decades and its quick recovery the few times its GNP has gone down."

The only reason there is "consistent growth" is because the US has a fiat currency and is off the gold standard. Keynesianism, deficit spending, inflation, and piling on the national debt is the cause of its alleged "great strength" to grow consistently over decades. Every time we get into trouble we just raise the national debt and print more money. And that's how you get a GNP chart that looks like this. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 02:14, August 21, 2023 (EDT)

Not a very conservative view, no matter what propaganda terminology and flawed sources you use. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!}

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness - Ez. 16:49. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 09:56, August 21, 2023 (EDT)

Lot fled Sodom. Move to Russia. If Russia was so great, you would move there.

Also, the USA has federalism/state rights. So if a corrupt loser like Putin/Biden gets in office, they can only do so much damage. And people can move to good states. Also, the USA has a separation of powers and checks and balances. Furthermore, the USA has many natural resources and great geography. Many countries do have all the various positives the USA has. But you already know this. That is why you have not moved to Russia. Conservative (talk) 11:47, August 21, 2023 (EDT)

"Keynesian Economics ...is associated with the ideas of the incompetent British economist and pedophile John Maynard Keynes", and here you are defending deficit spending and a huge national debt as "America's great strength." RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:49, August 21, 2023 (EDT)

Until you move to Russia, I am a skeptic of your prattle. You prefer the USA and that is why you live in the USA. As James said, "Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith... Faith without works is dead". Conservative (talk) 11:57, August 21, 2023 (EDT)

According to the chart America's GNP stood at 26.6 trillion measured in fiat dollars in January 2023, while its accumulated national debt over the same period time stands at stands at 32. 7 trillion dollars, thanks to the incompetent pedophile John Maynard Keynes.

• "Meanwhile, if you have any doubts that the United States is the number one country in the World for military “interventions” just take a look at this report from the U.S. Congressional Research Service, Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad 1798 – 2023. Since 1991, the United States has launched more than 200 military operations in foreign countries. Russia and China combined have been involved in less than 20 such activities. Just think about those numbers the next time you hear some American politician bloviate about the imperial ambitions of Russia and China. To paraphrase comedian Jeff Foxworthy, “If you launch an average of 9 foreign invasions a year you might be an Imperialist.” [3]

You can bet the Trump team has read this same report. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 01:50, September 21, 2023 (EDT)

I am not an interventionalist. My article advocates spending less on the military and not more. I wrote in this article: "I believe the USA should make some cut to its defense budget and focus more on cutting its federal debt."

If you have a good case that my article is errant, then please write the article Essay: The United States will NOT be the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future. But I don't believe that you have a good case so I do not expect you to write such an article. Instead, you want to waste my time with a lot of pointless rhetoric instead of building a good case and then making it. Well, I am not going to participate. Conservative (talk) 11:42, September 21, 2023 (EDT)

Look at the economics of it: the US can't remain an Empire if China, Saudi Arabia, and now even the EU stop buying US Treasuries to finance its military aggression. So Congress can go on printing money, but nobody else wants it. That means massive perpetual inflation at home. How long will the American people put up with that to finance its wars? (one every six weeks since 1991). RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:58, September 21, 2023 (EDT

"American greatness"

Yeah, American certainly has a greatly terrible record on moral issues, having enabled the mass murder of millions of unborn children for decades. That's not even mentioning its long history of war crimes across the world for the purpose of its own power, since it "speaks like a dragon."

It's all in the title. User:Conservative claims to be opposed to Americans excess military spending and interventionism. So that leaves only Social Darwinism to explain his views. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 12:54, September 21, 2023 (EDT)

RWA Samizdat

• No Boots in Ukraine: Diplomacy and Conspiracy through Griboedov and Alex Jones:

"Effectively, the Sha must amass a massive harem in order to project strength to his underlings, lest they try to seize power from him. The greater the harem, the more secure his position appears. In order to provide from this harem, he imposes heavier taxes, which are ultimately paid by the people of the kingdom. Even if the Sha wanted to lower taxes by reducing the harem, he would be seen as weak and would be replaced. I believe America is in a similar situation. America has created a vast network of countries that are little more than vassals. Germany sacrificed a staggering amount of their already abysmal military gear, just for the whims of the US. Prices are increasing everywhere in Europe, and there is little doubt that Australia will be endangered by increasing US provocation of China. Canada has recently defied American designs by quarrelling with India, one of the few countries with the economic power to be an international player, so we’ll see how long Trudeau is able to hold on to power.

"If America were to simply allow Russia to absorb the Ukraine it might make people think the empire is on the decline. For that reason, America has to intervene in The Ukraine, in Syria, across Africa, because like the Sha, once that power is in doubt, new players will start to wrestle away some control. Imagine an AFD Germany with real power, or a Japanese military who starts to truly test its military might, unfettered by American interference. So, the US wants to interfere, because it must interfere. If the Sha’s wives don’t wear diamonds, if the CIA doesn’t attempt colour revolutions, people begin to realize power is waning."

How many innocent people have to die before you and Biden are happy? RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:57, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

I am not sure if you notice this matter, but Vladimir Putin launched a special military operation in February of 2020 that has caused a lot of people to lose their lives.

And it appears as though there are a lot of people in the Kremlin who are not happy about the matter as can be seen below:

• Russia defector reveals 'majority' of people inside Kremlin unhappy with war in Ukraine, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, June 2023

• Russia defector reveals 'majority' of people inside Kremlin unhappy with war in Ukraine, ABC News video, July 2023

In fact, it appears as if there are also a LOT of unhappy people in Russia (See: [[Essay: Are the Russians as unhappy as they claim they are?|Are the Russians as unhappy as they claim they are?]]).

I trust this clarifies this matter. Conservative (talk) 12:17, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

The CIA has been murdering Russians in Russia and Ukraine since 2014.

I trust this clarifies matters. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:59, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

No it doesn't. Donald Trump recognizes that Putin is a killer. Putin kills his own countrymen. Twenty years of ruthlessness: how Russia has silenced Putin’s opponents and List of journalists killed in Russia under Putin.

Furthermore, [[Essay: Vladimir Putin is a corrupt kleptocrat and an authoritarian|Vladimir Putin is a corrupt kleptocrat and an authoritarian]] Conservative (talk) 19:16, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

Guess what? Donald Trump is a killer. So is Mahatma Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, Queen Elizabeth, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan and Franklin Roosevelt. It's part of the job. I thought you were a "realist". RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:43, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

You know that when I said that I was a realist it was in the context of embracing reality and not in the sense of embracing a school of international relations. And while I agree with some of the things that John Mearsheimer says, I also disagree with some of the things he says. Conservative (talk) 22:40, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

Look, I've been following your writings since you first got ahold of Mearsheimer's "End of the Liberal World Order" video, which impressed me at the time that you didn't understand Mearsheimer's use of the term "liberal". All you have done since is write in defense of the Liberal World Order. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 00:06, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

At the time, I wanted to suggest to you that you may be overlooking some meanings in Mearsheimer's use of the term "liberal", but I feared you'd get offended at a hint of criticism, since you consider yourself an expert. Your subsequent reactions to my writings - which actually carry forward Mearsheimer's criticism of the Liberal World Order, proved my hunch correct. But it's too late to go back now. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 00:15, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

As you are aware, I never said I was an international relations expert. This is merely a strawman argument that you are fond of employing. I did indicate that you are not on par with the international relations expert Professor John Mearsheimer when it comes to knowledge of international relations which enraged you (This is absurd since he is an old man whose expertise is international relations).

Also, in your upside-down and wrongheaded world, the following is true or likely true: the Russians haven't significantly engaged in war crimes in Ukraine; Russia is a great place to live where happiness abounds; Vladimir Putin is a Christian man and a family man; Russia doesn't face a huge problem when it comes to their demographic crisis, the Russians are deeply religious; the ruble falling in value is not a significant problem for the Russians; China doesn't face very big economic problems, and China/Russia have excellent leaders. And unfortunately for you, none of these things are true (See: [https://www.conservapedia.com/User:Conservative#Russia User: Conservative's essays on Russia] and [https://www.conservapedia.com/User:Conservative#China User: Conservative's essays on China]).

As a result of the above, having a discussion with you is rather pointless. Conservative (talk) 06:40, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

I think there's a disconnect somewhere between text as it appears on paper or the screen and the way it gets translated in your brain.

For example, because I do not echo MSM talking points about Russia, that get's translated in your brain as me saying "Russia is a great place to live." RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 11:20, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

Really? Is Russia a great place to live? Yes? No? Conservative (talk) 11:44, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

I don't know. I've never been there. But I don't have a racist attitude about it, either. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 12:05, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

Does Russia have a demographic crisis? Conservative (talk) 12:26, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

I don't know. That's God's business.

Bottomline: And I'll restate it again: All of this, all of it, is nothing but a defense of the Liberal World Order. You yourself just said you disagree with much Mearsheimer says, and your disagreements come out in your defense of the Liberal World Order in the corpus of all your Essays.

I have repeatedly attempted to warn you about the path you were walking down, but you only reverted or deleted my warnings and complained to owner of the website about me posting on your talk pages.

Now, you can marginalize yourself further by creating a new series of Essays attacking the Liberal World Order, contradicting and refuting the body of your earlier work, which is probably the path you'll pursue. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 14:03, October 27, 2023 (EDT)

Larry Johnson update

"Biden keeps repeating the nonsense that “America is great and can do anything.” Yeah, right. America cannot even keep Ukraine supplied with a sufficient number of 155 mm artillery shells because the U.S. industrial capability has been hollowed out. The world is witnessing the unraveling of America as the dominant hegemon.". RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 01:10, October 20, 2023 (EDT)

The USA has more self-correction ability than the corrupt and authoritarian countries of Russia and China who have inept leaders clinging to power. Right now, the political betting markets say Biden's reelection is more unlikely than it is likely. And the impeachment inquiry is fairly recent and more evidence could be uncovered. Even if Trump is jailed, which would be unprecented in presidential history, the political blowback will be considerable for Democrats.

In addition, the US governmental structure gives a significant amount of power to the 50 states. And if a state is dysfunctional, people can move to a better state (so there is diversification of risk). This puts pressure on states to be more competitive/efficient and citizen oriented.

USS Eisenhower driven out of Persian Gulf

Don't forget this:

• US Warship forced to leave Strait of Hormuz
• USS Eisenhower exits Persian Gulf

Who are those Muslim pantywaists who think they can kick the US around? And how long will the Eisenhower Supercarrier last in the face of an Iranian hypersonic missile (which the US doesn't have nor have a defense against)?

In war or other conflicts, there is often a change of strategy/tactics in response to the opponents measures and this has been true for thousands of years.

“He who can modify his tactics in relation to his opponent and thereby succeed in winning, may be called a heaven-born captain.” - Sun Tzu.

I don't know how easy it is to find a carrier out in the ocean, but I recall that is can be difficult. Regardless countries change their miltary tactics/strategies over time. And if I am not mistaken, China is building more carriers.

Comment: (a) the Eisenhower isn't out in the open ocean; (b) You evidently aren't familiar with ISR, satellite surveillance, the concept of "intelligence sharing", guided missiles, etc (yah, it makes sense to build a hypersonic missile with no guidance system to the target, according to User:Conservative). You're over your head on any of these subjects. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 14:34, December 19, 2023 (EST)

What do you actually think and believe?

Also, the GOP is becoming more isolationist and many Americans are more tired of forever wars.

John Mearsheimer says: "I am not an isolationist, but the logic underpinning this grand strategy is not easy to dismiss. Quite the contrary, as President Franklin Roosevelt discovered in the early 1940s, when he had great difficulty countering the isolationists. It is commonplace today to dismiss those isolationists as fools or even crackpots. But that would be a mistake. They were wrong to think the United States could sit out World War II, but they made a serious case for staying on the sidelines…If the case for isolationism was powerful before Pearl Harbor, it is even more compelling today."[5]

And with the baby boomers being an increasing expense as they age and growing problems with the USA's sovereign debt load, the USA might trim back on its defense spending.

At this point, in terms of international politics, I would rather wait and see the dust settle more in terms of China's economy, how the USA handles its debt, whether China makes the bad mistake of attacking Taiwan, etc. But I do think the USA is best positioned for the future compared to other countries (Like relatively speaking). Conservative (talk) 01:48, December 18, 2023 (EST)

Here's video of Iran's simulated training of destruction of a Supercarrier with speedboats (before hypersonic technology) from 2015 (they've been at this a long time). A Supercarrier won't make it to Hawaii from San Diego Naval Station to "defend" Taiwan before it's hit with a hypersonic (which the US doesn't have, nor can defend against). But the US will "remain the leading power for the foreseeable future", despite those envious sheepherders and rice eaters who can nuke us if we don't start showing some respect.

Now we can send a bunch of gay tranny wokesters to fight these ragtops, rice eaters, and snow n*ggers, but we'd have to implement a Ukrainian-style draft to drag away 16,000 gay tranny Gen Z wokesters for the meatgrinder in the first few months just to fill recruiting quotas.

Countries eventually change their diplomacy tactics/strategies and alliances as well and the USA can do the same. For example, China found its "wolf warrier" diplomacy was causing backlash. Now China might be resuming "panda diplomacy" again with the USA.[6]

The world is constantly changing. I am changing. Like I said, in terms of international politics, I prefer to wait and see how the dust settles as far as how some major world developments/trends work out. So I will not be following politics as closely for awhile. For now. I prefer to live less vicariously and be less of a spectator. With various skills I have, I can make various positive changes in the world and I will pray that God takes care of the rest. Conservative (talk) 02:12, December 18, 2023 (EST)

A quick note: People have freedom of association as far as whom they have discussions with. So if someone engages in spurious name-calling (racist, Nazi, etc.) or engages in ill-mannered speech (ragtops, rice eaters, etc.) sooner or later, most people will disengage as far as having future discussions with that person and will have discussions with more friendly and cordial people instead. Rudeness/coarseness in general is a turn-off to most people.

Also, although most people in my life consider me to be a polite person, currently I am doing various things to hone my interpersonal/diplomacy skills such as reading excellent works, being around noble people and reading material related to this matter such as material on listening skills, negotiation skills, persuasion skills, conflict resolution, etc.

I am not against having civil discussions with people who disagree with me. For example, although User: SamHB and User: ConwayIII are on the left side of the political aisle, I have had civil discussions with them.

This ought to be simple enough to see: the US exploits the world's resources by printing dollars.

Think about what just happened: in 1980, Jimmy Carter issued the Carter Doctrine, declaring the Persian Gulf as a vital national strategic interest of the United States.

trade and currency flows

I have a question for you. Given the amount of cargo that the Chinese bring through the Suez Canal, this disruption of the canal for cargo ships would appear to hurt the Chinese the most. So why don't the Chinese use their diplomatic connections (including their friends with no limits Russia's connections) and their navy to resolve this matter?

Money is confidence - confidence that the worthless toilet paper you receive in exchange for manufactured goods and/or services can be exchanged for something of equal value to the toil and labor you put into a manufactured good or service - and not stolen or looted by the country issuing the worthless toilet paper currency.^[1] The United States, through its actions, coups, blackmail, bullying (for example, destruction of the Nordstream pipeline), and proxy wars has in recent decades destroyed the trust and confidence other nations once put into the United States after 1945.

Now you have been raging about the "growth of right-wing populism in Europe" for years. After the deliberate destruction of the Nordstream pipeline by the United States, "right-wing populist movements in Europe" no longer wish to be enslaved to US dollar hegemony - the requirement that all international banking transactions be conducted in dollars (see SWIFT network) and to leftwing globalist neo-liberalism, neo-fascism, and the Liberal World Order.

Destruction of a US naval ship or Supercarrier (which has more bark than bite) through a proxy like the Houthis or Iran, or even Russia, serves China's interests and objectives of reuniting Taiwan with the Mainland - peacefully. IOWs, they don't have to destroy a Supercarrier themselves. And it puts to rest for the remainder of this century, or the next 30 years, or "the foreseeable future" the issue of global payments transactions through the SWIFT banking network, US blackmail to get its way, the dollar as a reserve currency, etc.

See, when Russian oligarchs started having their bank accounts and yachts seized because of US & EU sanctions, oligarchs worldwide started dumping dollars and getting away from US blackmail with the death grip the United States has on global financial transactions through its control of the global financial system.

So, how in practical terms does this work, as it relates to the military situation in Yemen or the Red Sea? Troops ashore in Yemen won't work, for a variety of reasons. Countering launching sites in Yemen will likewise fail, for a variety of reasons. Shooting down drone swarms won't work, for several reasons. Ships from countries that defy US sanctions will be granted passage; ships from countries that uphold US sanctions will not be granted passage, until those countries reject US hegemony.

But given the stupidity of US military and political leaders, as we've seen in Ukraine, US 'strategic thinkers' will keep banging their heads against the wall in what was a hopeless cause from the start, until they quit from exhaustion, and in defeat.

digression on stupidity

Nothing that is happening now, or has occurred in recent years, is random. This has all been carefully planned and mapped out, with contingencies. And I am not speaking about the idiot war planners in the Pentagon or NATO.

All of it has been carefully planned and mapped out with contingencies and agreements on what actions to pursue in response to US actions, which are entirely predictable.

Military academies the world over have studied carefully the Second World War. In that war, the so-called "allies" - the US, UK, USSR, and Kuomintang China worked together, coordinated actions. The Axis Powers, Germany, Japan, and Italy did not. Each of the Axis parties acted on their own, and moreless gave praise and encouragement to each other's successes after the fact, while continuing trade (for example, Mussolini's invasion of Albania and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor came as much as a surprise to Hitler and the Germans as it was to the rest of the planet). So the countries now leading the challenge to US hegemony - Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, et al understand that the side that coordinates and works together has the advantage over those who pursue selfish interests, and have long coordinated plans, actions, and contingencies (together with their proxies which they control like Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, etc). What's the common thread that binds them together? They are all under (or are the "targets" or "victims of") US sanctions.

Meanwhile, 'strategic thinkers' in the US & NATO think they're still fighting an uncoordinated Axis like in WWII, while at the same time making the same mistakes Hitler, Mussolini, and Tojo made - not consulting and coordinating with their allies. For example, Victoria Nuland's famous "F the EU" statement - the EU & NATO were going to be dragged into this conflict with Russia, without consultation and coordination, whether they liked it or not. They don't have a say in the matter. Follow that example with the attack on the Nordstream pipeline. The US dictates. It's allies blindly have to follow.

Again, lack of consultation with allies. This apparently is the "rules based order" - the US dictates, and others must follow (allies and adversaries alike). This is how the Soviet Union governed.

Now the exception to this is the UK; the US does consult and coordinate with the UK on most matters. Some say the US dictates and the UK does what it's told. But personally, I disagree with that assessment. The US too often bows to UK schemes, cause the US views the UK as a Senior partner it relies on for advice, mentoring, and guidance on how to rule the world based on the experiences of the British Empire. And the UK fully takes advantage of this 'special relationship' to manipulate the US to serve its own ends and interests that the UK is incapable of accomplishing itself.

More can be said. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 00:03, December 21, 2023 (EST)

Now let's say a word about free trade versus sanctions; what is the difference between "free trade" and communism? And what is the difference between laizez faire capitalism and economic sanctions? The United States spoke of, and promoted, "free trade" and capitalism for decades during the Cold War. That is why the European Union (a CIA creation, incidentally) was founded - to break down trade barriers between European nations. Does the US & EU promote "free trade" and capitalism today? or tyranny, totalitarianism, censorship, trade restrictions (sanctions), monopoly and oligopoly control, rigged elections and oppression?

I'm not going to contrast these observations of the US & EU with Russia, China, North Korea or Iran. It just seems like a matter of degree between all these parties on the scale of oppression, with no one having the upper hand. The point being, that "freedom, democracy, and capitalism" as preached by the US and the West is a bald faced lie. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 00:30, December 21, 2023 (EST)

Now if you say freedom means the constitutional God-given right to gay marriage and to force others to use your preferred pronouns, and the United States should use economic sanctions against human rights violators who don't respect these freedoms, there are probably residents of this planet outside the United States who disagree with you.

China's economy is based on semi-mercantilism because it needs to be at a higher level of development to have its domestic spending be stronger. It's navy is non-nuclear powered and designed to mainly protect its nation and potentially attack Taiwan. If the United States continues its path towards onshoring, derisking from China (like Mexico and other areas less vulnerable to terrorists, pirates, etc.) and increasing its domestic oil production that is bad news for China because it means that the USA has less and less of an incentive to use its navy to police the high seas.

This ought to be good for a few laughs: What is Chinese "domestic spending"?

Lemme guess: It's a buzz phrase you heard from Peter Zeihan that you have no idea what he was talking about (as Zeihan himself probably didn't know, either).

Question: When the United States passed $116 billion in Ukraine aid, and only $43 billion goes to Zelensky with the rest kickbacked to Raytheon and the military industrial complex, is the $116 billion Ukraine aid package foreign or domestic spending?

Furthermore, I have created the lion's share of the content on homosexuality at Conservapedia. And I do know that due to Russian young people being less conservative on the issue of homosexuality, recent data indicates that 36% of Russians have neutral/favorable attitudes towards homosexuality (See: Russian attitudes towards LGBT individuals).

The United States has very defendable geography thanks to the two huge oceans on its respective coasts and a friendly neighbor to the north. On its southern border, the GOP is finally playing hardball politics so that bad situation at the southern border will likely see some improvement.

The Chinese are building more aircraft carriers so I suspect your commentary on the defensibility of aircraft carriers is wanting. Plus, I talk about the other weakness of your argumentation regarding aircraft carriers at [https://www.conservapedia.com/Essay:_The_U.S._Navy_is_the_most_powerful_navy_in_the_world Essay: The U.S. Navy is the most powerful navy in the world].

I think we should agree to disagree on who started the great escalation of the war in Ukraine and what its likely consequences will be. Furthermore, while I believe that Biden Administration's diplomacy and foreign policy skills are weak, the USA system makes it easier to toss out a bad leader than in the Chinese/Russian systems. And it does appear that Biden's chance of being reelected looks weak.

Two oceans do not protect the US from an EMP attack or hypersonic nuclear missile travelling at 6 times the speed of sound.

Chinese carriers are just for show and not for much of any offensive capability beyond the nine-dash line. And that's still decades in advance. They are not designed to be China's forward base of advance, as American carriers were.

What you fail to realize is, even if the trillions of dollars the US spent on weapons actually did work, they still are no protection from idiot leaders and woke policies (like de-population) that have blundered the United Staes into a war we cannot win.

Coordination between (non-NATO) allies

• IF THE HOUTHIS CAN SHUT DOWN NAVAL TRAFFIC IN THE RED SEA, IRAN CAN CLOSE THE PERSIAN GULF.

So let's delve into this coordination between non-NATO allies.

The Germans and EU cut themselves off from Urals oil with Russian sanctions, making themselves more dependent on Persian Gulf oil (as you can see with the yellow line on the above map). Brilliant. Then lo-and-behold, out of nowhere, the USS Eisenhower gets kicked out of the Persian Gulf, and the Houthis take control of the Red Sea. What an amazing set of coincidences, coming randomly on the heels of NATO's defeat in Ukraine. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 00:40, December 22, 2023 (EST)

Pepe Escobar lays out that the Houthi action is part of a coordinated strategy: Yemen just changed EVERYTHING and Israel, Neocons are Stunned. Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, UAE and Ethiopia (all the Red Sea & Persian Gulf states) join BRICS next week (you know, "a bunch of "hoopla"). Yemen Ready to Stare Down a New Imperial Coalition.

Spain, France, and Italy (NATO's three southern maritime vassal states on the Mediterranean), and Australia quit the "the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future's" coalition yesterday. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 02:34, December 24, 2023 (EST)

• AUTOMATIC TRACKING SYSTEM AND IRANIAN RADARS TARGET COMMERCIAL AND MILITARY SHIPS IN THE RED SEA AND INDIAN OCEAN. "There is no doubt that Iran and the Houthis are working together....Clearly the Houthi-Iran effort is not something ginned up on the spur of the moment. It seems the attack on both commercial ships and US warships is part of a highly planned and well coordinated effort."

Comment: Great play, Cons. You have thoroughly disrupted war reporting. Wishful thinking isn't going to counter national security threats. Now, when conservative readers need to be informed of facts, I can't waste another 6 months dealing with your trolling. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 13:37, December 24, 2023 (EST)

Empty quiver

As the sun sets here at the Winter Solstice of 2023, I would like to draw attention yet again to what, in my estimation, is one of the most strategically significant battlefield humiliations inflicted upon NATO over the course of the Ukraine War: the progressively comprehensive defeat of their precision-guided strike missile inventory — ATACMS, HARMS, JDAMS, GMLRS fired from HIMARS, cruise missiles (Storm Shadow and SCALP). The Russians have demonstrated that they can routinely shoot down ANY species of strike missile the US/NATO can field against them — not all of them all of the time, but most of them most of the time. And they get better and better at it as time goes on. Indeed, over the past few months it is increasingly becoming "all of them most of the time"...No other military on the planet has previously attested this level of capability. The US does not have it, and is at least a decade away from developing it....The significance of this battlefield development defies exaggeration. It alters the war-fighting calculus that has been assumed for many decades.

So go on with your jingoism, hubris, and false pride. You're only leading people to their own destruction. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 22:27, December 21, 2023 (EST)

Update: The US is now begging Japan for Patriot missiles systems, being that the 8 German systems donated to Kiev were destroyed the first night upon arrival, and the US doesn't have the manufacturing ability to produce more of these worthless pieces of junk.

There comes a time for decency and morality's sake to toss in the towel, rather than let your guy stand there and get the hell beat out of him. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 22:38, December 21, 2023 (EST)

Personally, I will never forget the immoral stance you took in the Russia-Ukraine war, and the reasons why. RobS^{Zelensky didn't kill himself} 22:39, December 21, 2023 (EST)

Representative Mike Gallagher (R-Wi), who is the chairman of a House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party...says that "Recent war games simulating conflict with China over Taiwan revealed that the U.S. would run out of long-range precision-guided bombs and missiles less than a week into the conflict." Bill Gertz reports that the Pentagon has a backlog of more than $2 billion worth of weapons that Taipei purchased, held up by defense industry delays. Taiwan currently is waiting on 400 Harpoon missiles and 100 Harpoon launchers that the Pentagon announced as a sale over three years ago and which may not reach the island until 2029. The key point is that it will take five more years (8 years total) to deliver Harpoon missiles to Taiwan. It is even worse for other war stocks, such as 155mm and 120mm ammunition...

US retreats

• Members of the Biden Administration alongside Allied Defense Officials are reportedly now discussing a possible Withdrawal of U.S. and Coalition Forces from Eastern Syria due to ongoing Attacks by Iranian-Backed Forces, alongside a Reconsideration of Military Priorities for the Middle East Region; this Withdrawal would likely be a Major Blow to Allied Kurdish Forces in Northeastern Syria as well as the continuation of Operation Inherent Resolve, the Fight against the Islamic State (IS).

I think it's great for the USA to be more isolationist when it comes to military intervention and/or nation building. Wars are very expensive and cost a nation dearly in treasure, talent and time. And there is some evidence that the USA is going to become more isolationist when it comes to military interventions and nation building (See: Essay: Isolationalism is growing in the United States. Is this a good thing?).

As currently postured, the U.S. military is at significant risk of not being able to defend America’s vital national interests...This is the inevitable result of years of prolonged deployments, underfunding, poorly defined priorities, wildly shifting security policies, exceedingly poor discipline in program execution, and a profound lack of seriousness across the national security establishment even as threats to U.S. interests have surged...In 2023, this has been compounded by the cost of U.S. support for Ukraine’s defense against Russia’s assault, which is further exacerbated by the limited willingness of allies in Europe to shoulder a greater share of the burden...The war has laid bare the limited inventories of equipment, munitions, and supplies of all supporting countries as well as the limitations of the industrial base that will be required to replenish them.
