OUR WAR ON YEMEN

Biden has evidently launched hundreds of Tomahawk missiles at “essential” targets in Yemen. Probably some caves, wedding parties and playgrounds. Each Tomahawk missile costs over $2 million. Biden has spent over $200 million of your money to pulverize a country that has already been pulverized by Saudi Arabia (with our missiles) for the last five years. Nikki Haley wants 1,000 Tomahawks launched.

Meanwhile, our new enemy du jour has been rolling out their new weapons system. If ever the concept of war being a racket could be made any clearer, this is it. The order for replacement missiles has already been placed to Raytheon and this will be captured in the government GDP calculation as a factor in GDP going higher. So it goes.

The US has been funding Saudi Arabia in their war with Yemen, since obama. Thousands of innocent people dead directly or indirectly.

Now this country is getting even more involved. I fucking hate the creatures in charge of governments and the war machine.

Maybe WWIII and this Fourth Turning will be an extinction event, if it is, we deserve it.

Remember that old trick where the magician pulls the table cloth off a table that is fully set with fine China and the China remains undisturbed on the table?
That’s what’s about to happen, only in this analogy the US is the table setting and the magician is a drunk imbecilic Joe Buyden. And the entire US is going to crash and splinter on the floor. And it will probably occur n the next 10 months.
And yes, we, the macroeconomic we, definitely deserve it.

I Am the People, the Mob
BY CARL SANDBURG

I am the people—the mob—the crowd—the mass.
Do you know that all the great work of the world is done through me?
I am the workingman, the inventor, the maker of the world’s food and clothes.
I am the audience that witnesses history. The Napoleons come from me and the Lincolns. They die. And then I send forth more Napoleons and Lincolns.
I am the seed ground. I am a prairie that will stand for much plowing. Terrible storms pass over me. I forget. The best of me is sucked out and wasted. I forget. Everything but Death comes to me and makes me work and give up what I have. And I forget.
Sometimes I growl, shake myself and spatter a few red drops for history to remember. Then—I forget.
When I, the People, learn to remember, when I, the People, use the lessons of yesterday and no longer forget who robbed me last year, who played me for a fool—then there will be no speaker in all the world say the name: “The People,” with any fleck of a sneer in his voice or any far-off smile of derision.
The mob—the crowd—the mass—will arrive then.

Grass
BY CARL SANDBURG

Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo.
Shovel them under and let me work—
I am the grass; I cover all.

And pile them high at Gettysburg
And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun.
Shovel them under and let me work.
Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?
Where are we now?

I am the grass.
Let me work.

Sandberg presents agrarian metaphors and agencies as elements of war and life and death in both poems. It’s an interesting way to consider what would more commonly be looked at as brutish, animal nature.

In Flanders Fields
BY JOHN MCCRAE

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Europe’s big powers back out of US-led bombing campaign of Yemen

Rome, Paris, and Madrid have refused to participate in Washington and London’s latest war in West Asia

The US-UK strikes were supported by Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Korea, and Bahrain, who all signed a joint statement backing the bombing.

However, Europe’s major powers, France, Italy, and Spain, refused to take part in the strikes and declined to sign the statement in support of them.

Yemen is doing what the US and the west should be doing: fighting Israel.
If the west continues to support Israel, it will be annihilated in WW3.
Russia and China will use BRICS to destroy our economy totally and weaken us to the point that when they go in for the kill, we will not have the resources to fight. Look at the idiot we have for president, we don’t even have a mentally competent leader. He is cognitively challenged to such a degree we have essentially no leader at all.
I am sure that our enemies will also start a civil war before the election to keep that fool in office.
They will use their trojan horse weapon already here: the UN paid mercenaries armed and ready that Joe has helped them set up. The powers of darkness will sacrifice Israel to take down the entire Western powers.
The real target, whet they want to eliminate world wide is all white European christians.
We are all that stands between the forces of darkness implementing their CBDCs and the mark of the beast system.
We read the bible and were forewarned. Eliminate all of us white European Christians and it will be easy to force Transhumanism on the rest of the world.
I am disgusted that our military men, women, and gender confused, serve the forces of darkness in this world and are bombing Yemen. A nation destroyed with starving children just like in Gaza.
Abortion, transsexualism and sodomy rule as the new virtues of America.
It won’t end well.
Abandon God and you have no defense against the powers of darkness: the rulers of Hell.The Houthis are soldiers of God. God please help them.
America used to be one nation under God. See how a certain tribe divides and conquers.
They will sacrifice Israel to take down the west.
Then they can all move up to Ukraine which has been ethnically cleansed by them of all gentiles, and have the Big Israel there they have wanted it to become.
That is the real reason they did not want Ukraine to join NATO, once they all move to Ukraine, they will be on the winning side: not with the West, the losing side of ww3, but with BRICS, as Russia’s new friend and neighbor.
Very deceitful and tricky people that tribe.
With friends like Israel who needs enemies.
They are about to stab the US in the back and no one will even see the truth, that it was all an elaborate con from the holo-hoax to Gaza, in order to take down the entire White European Christian West.
The tribe only Hitler could have saved us from.
We sided with our worst enemy, and now it is the end of us all.
Those who have not abandoned God, will not be abandoned by God.
They will all meet again in Heaven, where there are no jews.

Not to worry … the same folks directing this against US have a century-long hatred for Russia and Germany, and have done all in their power to destroy them.

Remember what the piano player said: Ukraine will be a larger version of Israel … that’s been the plan all along …

We White Gentiles are their primary target … all of their actions for many years have been directed against us …

Been digging some more on this and found a couple things. -Goat

“Igor Berkut ukrainein zionist and millioner speaks about new heavenly Jerusalem to be located in Ukraine as a new home for jews from Israel.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUu1w_l4VYU\

And what I could find on him, though not verified yet, it is interesting, especially the part about being a Russian asset, which kind of leans towards Russia being in on it. -Goat

“In one of the interviews, Berkut noted that he had 12 passports of different countries “as a matter of duty”. Some Ukrainian journalists consider him to be an agent of “Russian special services, GRU, FSB”, while in the Russian Federation, as co-owner of JSC “Metrobank”, whose license was revoked by the Central Bank several years ago, he is suspected of loan fraud, and a criminal case was opened against him and his brother under the article “Fraud”.

“– Let’s return to Ukraine and here it is extremely curious why exactly this territory was chosen by the Jewish people for the “New Jerusalem”?
– First of all it was historically so. As you remember, it was on this territory 400 years existed Great Khazar Khaganate, 400 years on these lands existed the Jewish state. In addition, there is a historical continuity, a connection of times. As you know, from 1924 to 1944 the Soviet government was considering the establishment of the Jewish Soviet Republic in the Crimea. And that’s right next door. And as you know, only the conflict of the newly formed Israel with the USSR put a cross on this project, and so everything was going to the point that there would be a Jewish autonomy or Jewish Soviet Republic in Crimea.”

Reports by Igor Berkut, as well as other sources, on the Heavenly Jerusalem project in Ukraine

Nothing new here except the “insurgents” are now officially incorporated into the Yemeni Gov’t. So we’re executing a war against a state actor, rather than just carrying out military (and intelligence) operations in their country without their consent.

Yemen is one of those places where “stuff” just seems to always happen.
USS Cole bombing (2000)
Killing of 3x US citizens without legal due process in Anwar Al-Aulaqi strike (2011)
Dhahyan school bus strike killing 40+ children (2018)

No worries. SecDef Comatose and his 2nd, Beach Hiatus Hicks have this handled. Any day now, FJB will land on the USS Ford to a “Mission Accomplished” banner. So there’s noooo need to bother Congress about their required approval for Blinken’s plan to teepee nuclear tinder for an Iranian conflagration. They’ll all cheer the pump-up of their defense stocks and the ensuing campaign contributions.

History will assign the Gulf of Aden the same stature as the Gulf of Tonkin. A false flag designed to justify nuking Tehran and sparking a wider war that throws shade on the coincidental Harpquake in Ankara, triggered by Erdogan’s bidet.

Then, the curtain will rise again on the same old story. Turks, Arabs, Persians and Jews, all settling their ancient scores the hard way. Better than the “Shit and sit in it.” self-degradation of the USA, Europe and Australia, who are all in a very big hurry to flush their cash, culture and children into a jewish sewer.
