    Pulling out of Syria and Afghanistan = “losing the Cold War.” Got that? No, it doesn’t have to make sense. Commitment to perpetual war, which is ubiquitous in the elite commentariat, produces an endless supply of loopy logical contortionshttps://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1076540395851575297 …

        I often wondered why we took so long to pull out of an obviously unwinnable war in Vietnam, and then instead get to see exactly why 40 years later.

        If the #CapitalClass paid for war (instead of the 99%) #CorporateMedia would be much less pro war.

        The food chain in DC is dependent on an expanding Federal government. Any objection is met with hysteria.

        But this DOES make sense to those Anglo-American geopoliticians, neocons and humanitarian interventionists who have worked for so long on their lunatic new world liberal order strategy to encircle Russia and China. Starting with their lugubriously lamented hero George H.W. Bush.

        Perhaps most absurd is Milbank's assertion that Mattis' resignation somehow reflects opposition to Trump's willingness to excuse MBS for the murder of Khashoggi.https://twitter.com/Horned_OwlJA/status/1076564623166451714 …

        I thought we won the Cold War against the #Kremlin back in 1989. Or was it 1991? Either way, there has never been a cold war since, unless the pro-corporate warmongers in our corrupt duopoly think it has resurfaced since 2015. The #WaPo is the biggest piece of garbage for news.

        Yes...but....they have been working SO HARD to reignite it, and now their dreams have been snuffed out and they only have 30 days to stoke those flames again....not much time. Have some compassion for the war machine!

        Exactly. We need to not refer to psychopathic warmongers as “us”, or “we” they are as much or more our opposition here in the USA. Unfortunately most don’t understand this.

        If the Cold War was partially fought to stop the spread of communism, then how does pulling support for the anarcho-communist Kurds square with the assertion that we are losing the Cold War?

        The Post as well as all of MSM are nothing more than mouth pieces for the CIA, the right hand of the military industrial complex.

        Judging by the deep states anonymous oped we haven't had a president in 30 years that wasnt defaulting to the bureaucracy for any and all policy positions. I haven't liked the trajectory of the past 30 years so let's openly defy them ala trump
