Let’s Make 2020 The Year Of Waging Peace

Please note that I was working on this piece before the assassination of an Iranian general and violation of Iraqi sovereignty ever occurred.

If you want to make New Years resolutions, make at least one that counts far beyond yourself.

Personally, I am already a strong antiwar activist. However, this year I am going to go fully on the offensive and be pushing the concept of being against war more than ever.

I genuinely find many Fauxgressives to be warmongers by default. In fact, they are capitalists interested only in their own profit motive. Why? Because if your antiwar stance focuses solely on how much is spent on warfare, you don’t really care about war. You care about how much you are spending on it.

Yes, I have written a number of articles which detail how warfare costs far more than the alleged profits derived from it. How the “defense” budget is false to begin with and does not include many expenses which should be included in the calculations if we want a true picture of “defense” spending. CIA, NSA, ICE, FBI and VA funding should ALL be included when discussing “defense” spending. When all of those are combined, we spend more on defense than every other nation on earth combined.

Yet even that is not enough. You have probably seen the reports stating that the Pentagon was unable to account for $21 TRILLION in spending over 12 years. Those years do not even include the most recent 8 years.
