The US is a battlefield. The military knows how to conduct war.
Controlling the politics of gov't and population is a delicate task. Defeat has never been an option since that policy was embedded in the war of 1812. Even Reagan knew that. When bs politics affected warfare he installed Bill Casey in charge of the CIA for a specific task discussed only among "gentlemen".
The current problem is that the military was never designed as nation builders and a common NATO structured force for the task has never been built.
Bush hating advocates need something to believe in. That's good to a certain extent. [Politics is a waste of time to have any sort of beliefs in imo.] Whatever floats your boat but they'll never land any fish. Politics to them is one big self circle jerk with a big imagination. Real orgies have more action imo.
What I worry about is that they could screw up international trade. That's the silent long term monster in waiting imo.
