President Donald Trump made pointed remarks yesterday opposing “endless wars,” calling for bringing “our soldiers home,” and blasting the military-industrial complex for wanting to prolong wars. He spoke at a Labor Day press conference. The further, unspoken background to his charges, includes elements in military and civilian networks backing actual insurrection. This was addressed directly, and denounced, Sept. 5, by Col. Richard Black (ret.), at the Schiller Institute international conference (see separate slug).
Trump said to the reporters, “Biden … sent our youth off to fight in these crazy endless wars. It’s one of the reasons the military— I’m not saying the military is in love with me; the soldiers are. The top people in the Pentagon probably aren’t because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy. But we’re getting out of the endless wars.... And I said, ‘That’s good. Let’s bring our soldiers back home. Some people don’t like to come home. Some people like to continue to spend money.’ One cold-hearted globalist betrayal after another, and that’s what it was.”
