Clinton's National Security Strategy: Endless Wars of Aggression

Clinton's National Security Strategy: Endless Wars of Aggression

by Stephen Lendman

Her deplorable record speaks for itself, publicly supporting all US wars of choice, naked aggression against nonbelligerent states, raping them, responsible for mass slaughter, destruction and appalling human misery.

Don't let her deceptive rhetoric fool you. Urging escalated war on ISIS ignores its US creation along with likeminded terrorist groups - used as imperial foot soldiers.

America's phony war on terror is a pretext for state terror, targeting sovereign independent nations worldwide, justifying homeland repression, turning planet earth into a battleground, risking its destruction.

The possibility of a Clinton presidency should terrify everyone. She deplores peace and stability, wants America leading aggressively in waging global wars - not to "defeat ISIS" or "disrupt and dismantle the growing terrorist infrastructure…around the world."

To foster and facilitate it, help it spread, support it with US weapons, air power and ground forces, maintain a permanent state of war. 

Russia and China are her prime targets of choice, wanting regime change by whatever methods it takes, her recklessness risking nuclear war. Her madness threatens humanity.

She urges stepped US military action against Syria, unilaterally imposed no-fly zones over parts of the country on the phony pretext of creating safe areas, US-controlled puppet rule replacing Assad.

She's militantly pro-Israel/anti-Iranian, irresponsibly accusing its government of supporting terrorism, wanting its regional influence "counter(ed)," earlier saying "(w)e cannot view Iran and ISIS as separate challenges."

She urges Congress "swiftly pass an updated authorization to use military force…The time for delay is over."

She wants the nonexistent threat of homegrown terrorism addressed more aggressively, targeting "radical jihadism" and anyone opposing US imperial aims. 

She supports full-blown tyranny replacing what remains of constitutional protections on the phony pretext of protecting national security at a time America's only enemies are ones it invents.

Her disturbing response to Orlando shootings, saying "weapons of war have no place on our streets," ignores her advocacy for using them aggressively against one sovereign state after another.

A Clinton presidency assures the horror of four more years of war, waged on humanity at home and abroad - risking a third global conflict with super-weapons able to end life on earth.
