“More intervention in Iraq avoids an American city in flames” – Lindsey Graham

By Sartre | BATR

Perceptive political watchers know all too well that foreign policy seldom changes from one administration to the next. Oh, the edges may soften and the emphasis may project modifications, but the core thrust of the State Department and the military-industrial-complex keeps on track their need to maintain the aggressive war deployments of the American Empire. The undisputable fact that underpins the post World War II era has seen an unending crisis of national character. How can a republic be waging permanent war and retain the essence of representative self-government?

The establishment has been all in for the perpetual warfare foreign policy. The consequences from this misguided mindset, places interventionism over legitimate defensive national security. The careerist political class is certainly in the pocket of foreign special interest.

Just look at the position statement from the crew of GOP RINO’s and from the Democrat stalking donkeys for the bellicose power elites. One the Issues publishes an extensive resource on the positions of the presidential candidates.

The always insightful Paul Craig Roberts writes in his article, All Republican Presidential Candidates Stand For War.

“There is not a peaceful person among the Republican candidates. Even the female is heartless. Carly Fiorina positioned herself alongside the macho men as a warmonger. She let the military/security complex know that she, too, was for sale. Send in the campaign donations, and she will see that the money flows back to the military/security complex in the buildup of fleets and armaments that will send the Russians a message.”

In order to fully understand the primal betrayal of genuine American interests, our society has to face the hard reality that the NeoCons and Zionist Israel-First fifth column that controls the bureaucracy of selective orthodox government is the enemy of our own people.

Illustrating this point, the debate statement from Carly Fiorina, Crackpot Warmonger, exposes the utter absurdity of subordinating our true interests to a rogue regime designed to cause chaos as the meanings to achieve regional dominance.

“On Day One in the Oval Office, I will make two phone calls, the first to my good friend Bibi Netanyahu to reassure him we will stand with the state of Israel.”

Standing with Israel is a primary reason for the demise of the American Republic. The alternative to the nihilism spread by the forces of internationalism are best combated by reinstituting an authentic America First philosophy with pragmatic policy changes.

The terminally ill former President Jimmy Carter may be willing to admit publically the reality that most are in denial to accept. He is quoted in the Washington Blog:

“The Rest of the World, Almost Unanimously, Looks At America As The No. 1 Warmonger. That We Revert To Armed Conflict Almost At The Drop Of A Hat — And Quite Often It’s Not Only Desired By The Leaders Of Our Country, But It’s Also Supported By The People Of America”

Essays written on this topic always incur extremely negative attacks. It comes as no astonishment that American Denial is the root cause why the crop of 2016 presidential candidates fails to articulate a total reputation of kosher militarism that has captured and imprisons our fundamental principles as a nation consistent with founding father visions.

The libertarians at Reason wrote on Rand Paul back in 2013, Rand Paul Mainstreams Non-Interventionism.

“Going by a pre-speech interview with The American Conservative’s Daniel Larison, Paul’s foreign policy vision will focus less on the “blowback” his father constantly warns about, and more on the “process” of restoring congressional participation in the constitutional balance of power over military affairs. Instead of getting to the immediate “no” on interventionism abroad, whether in Mali or Syria or Iran, this focus on congressional oversight allows Paul to work more slowly toward the same likely conclusion, while allowing for coalition building and stressing a certain epistemological humility.

“If you get to that, then you’ll get to the facts ultimately,” he told Larison. “It’s hard to always comment on every set of facts in the world, particularly if we’re not engaged in the debate.”

Some of Ron Paul’s biggest fans detect in such words a worrying openness to intervention, and willingness to play ball with the same neoconservative establishment Rand railed against in his first book. This suspicion is only heightened when he utters such crowd-pleasing silliness as “any attack on Israel will be treated as an attack on the United States.”

If you wonder why Rand Paul has sunk in the polls, it is not totally because of his calling out Donald Trump. No, this Paul is not his father. Such milquetoast pandering does not inspire confidence. If Rand Paul has forfeited the non-interventionist banner, what other candidate is in the race that can fill the void?

Justin Raimondo at Anti-war.com wrote the column, Bernie Sanders: The Ron Paul of the Left?

“Sanders fulsomely supported the Kosovo war: when shocked antiwar activists visited his Senate office in Burlington, Vermont, he called the cops on them. At a Montpelier public meeting featuring a debate on the war, Bernie argued passionately in favor of Bill Clinton’s “humanitarian” intervention, and pointedly told hecklers to leave if they didn’t like what he had to say.

Never mind all that highfalutin’ anti-militarist rhetoric – a politician’s job is to bring home the bacon. And that is what Sanders, and his fellow progressives (for the most part), have done. In Bernie’s case, the F-35 issue dramatizes the political dynamics of how the “anti-imperialist” radicals of yesteryear became the Establishment’s house progressives in 2015.”

Raimondo goes on to put the issue in the proper contest.

“No one currently running for the presidency is a consistent noninterventionist, although Sen. Rand Paul – who I’ve criticized pretty harshly, here and elsewhere – comes closest, albeit very far from close enough. The truth is that we still must depend on ourselves – not some politician in Washington – to ward off the War Party and prevent another major conflict from developing.”

Be honest with yourselves. This Presidential election does not have a true anti war candidate. The steamroller that select the next commander-in-chief tin horn dictator keeps marching along. What will change under a new administration? Odds are that the path to WWIII will be on a short bus driven by retards in service to the global cabal.

The good news is the resignation of Speaker John Boehner. Hail to the efforts and courage of the radical right. Breaking out the tea cups in celebration is well earned. However, the ability to navigate the waters of presidential ascendency cannot be achieved by a vote to vacate the chair.

The imperial emperors that contaminate the White House all are beholden to the same elites that acquiesce to international finance. Election 2016: Left, Right Or Center, All Major Candidates Toe The Line On Palestine adds an assessment on several of the candidates.

“To become president in the United States, a potential candidate must be at least 35 years of age, a natural-born citizen of the U.S., and a U.S. resident for at least the last 14 years. But judging by the field of candidates for the 2016 election, one could almost believe there is one other requirement: wholehearted support for Israel’s illegal occupation and oppression of Palestine.

Below is a survey of the three leading candidates from each party, based on a May 2015 Washington Post-ABC News poll, and their perspective on Palestine.”

Now many American could care less about the eternal conflict among Semite cousins. So what is the overwhelming and compelling justification for demanding that every aspiring politician must bow down to the dictates of the Talmud?

Even if you reject this argument, it is impossible to deny that Military Contractors Behind New Pressure Group Targeting Presidential Candidates.

“Former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers has formed a new pressure group, now active in Iowa and New Hampshire, to serve as the “premiere national security and foreign policy organization during the 2016 debate” and to “help elect a president who supports American engagement and a strong foreign policy.”

The war machine works in dovetail with and to further The State Department’s New World Order Agenda. The plan to destroy America has been a work in progress for decades. Defending National Sovereignty from the NWO is the duty of every citizen.

The dual loyalties that infest the State Department and every other agency that sucks the life blood from the cannon fodder sent to fight foreign campaigns must be removed from positions of authority.

This presidential cycle is most disappointing. The rationalization used after 911 to wage a war of terror on invented and imaginary enemies does not serve this country well. Those who benefit from An Empire of Drones and Robots are not patriots. Foreign policy topics are not being debated with sincerity by any of the candidates. Until the truth regarding Foreign Government Involvement in 9/11 Shouldn’t Stay Secret is made available, the compromised presidential candidates will never gain the guts to set into motion a true America First foreign policy.
