Considering how big our military is and how much of NATO we are, yeah, unironically it is a redistribution of US wealth to protect a huge portion of the world. The good kind of redistribution involves missiles I guess?
If by “protect” you mean extract resources and concession from a huge portion of the world and redistribution from US tax payers to Military contractors.
No. I mean use them as forward operating bases. We subsidize the defense of a huge portion of the world, particularly NATO members, because they're strategically important.
I've been anti-war for over 20 years. Don't get pissed at me because you haven't bothered to understand your opponents.
Christ all the ignorant fucks that keep assuming ridiculous things are frustrating.
Out of respect for the instance I'm gonna stop and wish you a fine day.
Read what I've said. I described the US's strategic plans. I didn't say I agree with them. Calm down. Read. Stop assuming insanely stupid shit.
