Pentagon chief revealed ‘military secret’ – ex-Russian president

Via RT

The Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin has apparently revealed the true goal of his country’s enduring support for Ukraine and it has nothing to do with defending “democracy” or even battling Russia, but boils down to the modernization of the US military-industrial complex, ex-Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has said.

Medvedev, who currently serves as the deputy chairman of the country’s National Security Council, took to social media platform X on Sunday, commenting on a speech made by Austin at the Reagan National Defense Forum in the US.

“We’ve launched what the Army calls ‘the most ambitious modernization effort in nearly 40 years’ for our defense industrial base,” the Pentagon boss said during the event.

Some $50 billion of our supplemental budget request would flow through our defense industrial base. And that will create or support tens of thousands of good American jobs in more than 30 states. That includes making missiles in Arizona; vehicles in Wisconsin and Indiana; and artillery shells in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Texas.

The remarks by the secretary of defense, himself a retired general, effectively amount to an admission of the true goals of Washington, Medvedev said, suggesting that a “sincere” Austin might have inadvertently revealed a genuine “military secret” of the US.

A straightforward and simple-minded person, the general unhesitatingly stated the reason for the US involvement in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

The US is not driven by a desire to help stop Ukraine from “disappearing from the world map” or by an intent to fight “for democracy against tyranny,” he said. Moreover, the US is apparently not even motivated by its repeatedly proclaimed goal of “even confronting Russia to diminish its defense capacity,” the ex-president suggested.

“It turns out, it’s all about defense goods commissioning to increase military production output and create jobs. And, possibly, about the enormous profit that the companies close to the Biden administration get from it,” Medvedev wrote.

They will modernize the military by painting gay flags on everything and by hosting a new degenerate art called Beastiality Story Time for children living on base. What I hear from my son is most everyone in military is counting down days to get the hell out.

Fucking clowns at the DoD. Deadly clowns too as they were primary driver for Covid vaxx bioweapons forced upon western world so to depopulate it and make it vulnerable to invasion by hoards of brown people with 72 IQs.

And beware, they’ll be at it again as unrealized banking losses pile up to point they can’t be unrealized anymore. No more LIBOR to manipulate so rates will go parabolic and BOOM! We get another pandemic to stop all consumption while the money printing goes into overdrive to backfill the realized unrealized banking losses and the Fed desperately tries to only create a teensy weency bit of hyperinflation that they can certainly get back under control with the right propaganda program and even more vigorous censorship.

What a clusterfuck the whole thing has become what our ancestors built and bequeathed to us. We had to go and let the bankers in. The time is nearly upon us to set it all right again.

I’m a little confused as how MIC jobs are going to help the working man. Doesn’t the MIC get most of their money from government? Doesn’t that just add to the downward economic spiral? I’m not very good at financial/economic stuff, so if somebody can help me out here, I’m listening.

No, I think you got it perfectly right. It doesn’t do shit for the working man. The only one who cares about the American Working Man is … crickets… MAYBE his woman if she’s a good one. I’m not even a “working man” by any honest estimation, but I can tell who this country hates.

The GOV doesn’t HAVE any money. That’s the working Man’s money. Don’t you DARE EVER lose sight of this fact.

In light of that fact, what you are witnessing is the Snake eating it’s own tail.

The MIC, just as the GOV, is totally dependent upon the working man. They produce nothing without us. They CONTROL NOTHING WITHOUT US.

And now they have declared WAR ON US.

It’s an insane situation. Our dangerous servant has become an uncontrollable conflagration and it will go as it will.

One of the great lessons I learned from HSF is, “Physiognomy is your friend.”
It makes it so much clearer when you see General Immortan Joe in his dumb mask-contraption and all those scrawny weirdo leftists and angry shrew women and pink-haired Gollum-looking trannies running around making demands.

Keep posting pics of this guy, it’s an awesome way to rub people’s noses in the epochal retardation that is Amerikwa.

Look at that face. Tell me, seriously without lying to yourself, does it look like it conceals even an average intellect behind it? That look of bafflement is what fast food workers must gaze upon hundreds of thousands if not millions of times every day when their customer tries to figure out if the meal deal is cheaper than ala carte.

The Peter Prinnciple doesn’t do this guy justice. Every night when he gets ready for bed he must be flummoxed by the reality of his current position. And then he eats another Nutty Buddy.

Yep but not the ‘military’ as we think of it and we are the enemy not some government or terrorist organization etc. We are not ‘stakeholders’.
That’s what wars are, as we should all now realize.

they are not building an army of defense. they are building an army of occupation. that is why they allow deviants/perverts/stupids in and not true future warriors who are willing to defend us.
