Middle East Failure
Middle East Failure
I keep hearing we must keep all of these illegal bases in the Middle East so we can keep things under control. Or should I say, under our control.
I ask you this though. Has our Middle East policy worked? I say it has not. And the extremist groups we are supposedly there to keep under control, were actually created because of our militaristic presense in the Middle East. ISIS for example is an offshoot of the Saddam Hussains Iraqi party, the Sunni, we overthrew when we invaded Iraq in 2003.
Now the Shia is in control in Iraq, which traditionally has been friendly with Iran.
Iraq does not even want us in their Country any more, and we are in Syria illegally, stealing their fuel.
The Kurds are our "Allies" but we treat them like red headed step children. We screw them over constantly.
And now with the Isael-Hammas conflict, the entire Arab population in the Middle East is up in Arms.
Even our supposed Allies like Sadi Arabia is running into the open arms of Russia and China, joining Bricks.
What is going to happen when ALL of these countries decide to dump a worthless Petro Dollar?
Now it has gotten to the point, we are making money only from Wars and conflicts. The only thing we are profiting from in the Middle East is from Wars, thus we build the weapons needed to maintain these Wars.
And that is a problem in itself. We are shooting down missiles every day that cost only a few thousand dollars to create. The missiles we use to shoot them down cost us millions of dollars a piece!
Our self created "enemies" know this.
I LOVE our Country and the legal citizens that live in it. But I do not Love the path our great Country has taken. It has turned into a disaster on all fronts.
