No doubt, but to who's benefit? Don't forget "follow the money".

^ Always this.

Just because the "bad other party which supports child-castration" did lots of fraud and corruption, it does not absolutely follow that the "good party which opposes child-castration" is acting in the best interests of anyone but themselves and their close circle of patrons and allies.

China lost their oil sources and mineral sources, arms trading partners, and much of their ability to influence the Middle East as well as South America. The U.S. now has control over the waterways, oil, mineral deposits, and behind the scenes is chasing down the banks that have been channeling the oil money for Iran and Venezuela.

And while BRICS is all but dead, there's a line of oil tankers heading to the Gulf of America to fill up, rather than Iran. China's push to end the dollar internationally has been stopped in the most spectacular way.

Maybe the funniest/saddest thing to happen is that the UK is having trouble sending even a couple dinghies to the Gulf because their navy has been gutted. NATO has been exposed as a bunch of posers. I fully expect us to pull back from NATO, which means--HOPEFULLY--that we'll see a peace windfall by spending less on NATO and the bases in Europe.

Interesting take. Was the "Gulf of America" renamed last year knowing that the current events would happen?
Now imagine if we had the Keystone Pipeline...

Question: do you think trying to steal a national election is "noose-worthy?"

Absolutely. We need to have some severe consequences for these illegal acts. One noose would stop a lot of it.

Somehow I really hate to circle back to this, yet it seems like it's kinda important since MILLIONS of people died. Go to the 9 minute mark, and then watch to the end which is only at 11:19.

Which time? Which nation? We have been stealing elections and overthrowing duly elected leaders of other countries for decades. It's our policy.
