Is America the Bad Guy? Yes, and it’s worse than you think.

America is the Bad Guy

As a USMC infantryman and patriot at heart, this was a difficult realization to come to terms with. We are not the beacon of freedom we were told we are. We do not fight for liberty and freedom. Ironically, we are ground zero for establishment takeover of the Western world, and we, or more accurately, the U.S. government, is the bad guy because most of our wars were either false flags, setups, or lies to benefit American elites.

Days after September 11th, General Wesley Clark’s colleague informed him about the Department of Defense’s plan to topple seven Middle Eastern countries, most having no connection to the terrorist attack, but nobody in the Pentagon knew why. It was an establishment ploy to get our military involved in the Middle East. 

Americans are slowly coming to this realization en masse, likely due to the internet decentralizing the flow of information and people like General Clark coming forward. But whatever the reason may be, the veil hiding the fact that our military and our citizen’s patriotism was, and is, taken advantage of for shallow, false virtue-based imperialism now has giant holes in it.

Iraq & Afghanistan

Due to the recency of this war, this is by far the most difficult act of treachery to stomach. The federal government killed 3,000 of its citizens to justify a 20-year war.

9/11, which coincidentally, at the time of writing, happened 22 years ago today, galvanized the country to make the people responsible for it pay in blood. Not widely known, however, is the fact that Alex Jones predicted the event four months prior and in its entirety.

Alex Jones not only predicted a terrorist attack, but he also accurately named the target, relative timing, and the scapegoat.

We fought this nation’s longest war to initially get Bin Laden in Afghanistan and rid Iraq of its weapons of mass destruction, which we all know is bullshit now. The checks companies like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Raytheon were getting were just too high to let a thing like peace get in the way.

Now, what did the rest of us get? It certainly was not unimaginable wealth, American liberty, middle eastern freedom, or whatever other bullshit reason they used to justify the conflict. The common man, the hard-charging grunt on the ground who endured the gore and hardship, got death. We got death. We got mangled limbs and destroyed psyches. The American elite was willing to sacrifice our bodies, minds, families, and futures for their wallets.

The final cost of their war: 

  • A broken Iraq for the next hundred years 
  • A Taliban controlled Afghanistan
  • An unerasable stain on our nation’s history 
  • Tens of thousands of wounded Americans
  • 7,057 American KIAs
  • 30,177 post 9/11 veteran suicides
  • 4.5 million deaths worldwide. 

This despicable act of treason alone is enough to justify a French style Revolution, but this is only the beginning. Most, if not all American Wars were lies. 

The Gulf War

In August 1990, Iraq invaded its neighbor Kuwait. The establishment never misses the opportunity to take advantage of a crisis. Initially, the war was marketed as a righteous war to help poor little Kuwait regain its freedom. We all know the real reason now. Indeed, it was oil and the control of it, but the government hid this fact for years.

While the cost in American blood was relatively low, with 219 deaths, it would set the stage for American Middle Eastern involvement for decades. Iraqi KIAs are estimated to be between 8,000-50,000. Keep in mind the Gulf War, from start to finish, lasted 43 days.

Vietnam

The federal government justified U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War by the Gulf of Tonkin incident.

The Vietnam War is interesting to examine because it was the first large-scale American war after they killed JFK, and I believe, the first war in which the establishment was fully in control. They splattered JFK’s brain over the Dallas pavement in 1963, and in 1965, LBJ ordered 3,500 Marines to go ashore at Da Nang, which began U.S. involvement in Vietnam.

On August 2, 1964, North Vietnamese torpedo boats attacked the USS Maddox while it was conducting covert surveillance and intelligence missions near the coasts of Vietnam. Its mission was to intercept intelligence from the North Vietnamese and send that intel to the South Vietnamese, who were already at war with the North.

On August 4, 1664, the Commander of the Maddox task Force, Captain John Herrick, reported another attack. This attack occurred in international waters in the Gulf of Tonkin at 2040, shortly after the USS Maddox began tracking unidentified vessels. But the attack and Washington’s subsequent response have been shrouded by confusion, mystery, and deceit. The attack was entirely imaginary. It never happened. 

What did happen, however, is Congress, on August 7 and with near unanimity, approved the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which authorized President Johnson to “take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression.” Revealingly, the Resolution allowed the federal government to use military force without formally declaring war, evading the oversight or approval of Congress, and bypassing the system of checks and balances put in place to ensure military accountability.

American soldiers died in the sweltering jungles of Vietnam for establishment political aspirations and military-industrial complex financial opportunities.

The total cost of their war:

  • An American defeat
  • 303,644 American WIAs
  • 58,220 American KIAs
  • Vietnamese deaths, both military & civilian, estimated 966,000–3,010,000

Korean War

America’s Forgotten War was the first war after World War 2, and the first war–followed soon by Vietnam– justified by the domino theory, which argued that communism would spread around the world one country at a time if not stopped. Did the establishment war hawks legitimately believe it? Probably not, but that was the excuse, and the American public bought it.

The total cost of their war:

  • 92,134 American WIAs
  • 33,000 American KIAs
  • And the precedent to needlessly intervene in foreign conflicts

Word War 2

FDR and our federal government sacrificed 2,400 service members’ lives and another 1,143 wounded to get the U.S. involved in WW2.

Yes, even America’s favorite war is bullshit. Contrary to popular belief, we did not declare a righteous war on Germany to save Western Europe from dominion and the Jews from eradication. And Pearl Harbor was not the surprise attack it was marketed as.

The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, but it was neither a surprise nor unprovoked. Japan relied on the U.S. for oil, and the U.S. cut off its supply, crippling the would-be empire’s war machine. Our redaction of oil served a couple of purposes. Firstly, to limit Japan’s ability for conquest, and secondly, to provoke them into attacking the U.S. so we could get involved in the war with public support.

Naval records prove that from November 17 to 25, the U.S. Navy intercepted 83 messages the Japanese Admiral Yamamoto sent his carriers. One of which read, “ …the task force, keeping its movements strictly secret and maintaining close guard against submarines and aircraft, shall advance into Hawaiian waters, and upon the very opening of hostilities shall attack the main force of the United States fleet in Hawaii and deal it a mortal blow…” The federal government and FDR knew about the impending attack and sacrificed the sailors, soldiers, and Marines at Pearl Harbor. 

Famously, when the first bombs started dropping on the unprepared American fleet docked at Pearl Harbor, all 3 of the American carriers were safely sailing the open seas for training exercises. Carriers were and are the most important ships in a fleet, and they are expensive in both time and money to replace. Their importance in the Pacific War, with its millions of miles of open ocean, cannot be overstated. 

On Sunday morning, Nov. 30, 1941, U.S. Army Private Paul Brown was in a military hospital seeking treatment for his injuries. When the wheelchair-confined soldier heard a commotion at the front desk, he rolled over to investigate. The local paper, The Honolulu Advertiser, was just delivered, but they were ripping the front page off the papers before being delivered. When he inquired about it, he was told it was orders “from the top brass.”

Private Brown secured a copy of the newspaper from one of the medics. The headline on The Honolulu Advertiser read, “Japanese May Strike Over Weekend.”

His copy survived the war and his mother’s records for decades. There are two known copies that survived, one in Honolulu and Private Brown’s copy, which currently hangs in the Military Heritage Museum in Punta Gorda, Florida.

The cost of their war:

  • 670,846 WIAs
  • 407,000 KIAs

World War 1

The U.S. participated in a foreign imperial war because of British deceit and the ambitions of American political elites. 

The war to end all wars did not need American involvement. In fact, most Americans had favorable sentiments towards the Germans and definitely did not want American intervention in a European war.

Positive American sentiment toward the Germans turned negative after the sinking of the RMS Lusitania, a British luxury passenger liner turned military munition transport. Her sinking is typically the catalyst credited with beginning U.S. involvement in WW1.

RMS Lusitania took a German torpedo to its hull because it was carrying American-provided munitions through an active war zone to resupply Great Britain. Also aboard the Lusitania were American citizens, 128 of whom died in the attack.

The dangers of traveling on British liners through a war zone were well known. The Imperial German government sponsored newspaper ads warning Americans against traveling on British liners; the standard notice ran directly under Cunard’s ad for the Lusitania, listing its May 1 departure.

The week before the Lusitania’s sinking, Winston Churchill, First Lord of the Admiralty, informed the President of the Board of Trade that it was “most important to attract neutral shipping to our shores, in the hope especially of embroiling the United States with Germany.” Foreign leaders wanted this tragedy and did everything possible for it to materialize.

RMS Lusitania sank in 1915, and the U.S. did not declare war on the Central powers until 1918, when the conflict was at a stalemate, and American intervention would all but seal victory for the Allied powers. 

The total cost of their war:

  • 204,000 WIAs
  • 63,000 non-combat related deaths (Mostly due to influenza)
  • 58,000 KIAs
  • 121,000 total American deaths

The Spanish-American War

The U.S. federal government blew up the USS Maine and killed 261 of its own sailors to justify war with Spain. 

In 1898, the Spanish Empire was crumbling, and its imperial possessions, most notably Cuba and the Philippines were probable war prizes to the country that found a way to beat the struggling country in a quick, decisive war. 

The U.S. was already supporting Cuban and Filipino rebels fighting against Spanish rule. War with Spain was the logical next step, and the Spanish now had the motive to attack the U.S. Enter the USS Maine.

The USS Maine was anchored in the deep black water of Havana harbor the night it exploded under unknown circumstances. The U.S. was quick to blame the Spanish and soon declared war.

The total cost of their war:

  • 1,662 WIAs
  • 385 KIAs
  • 2,061 non combat deaths
  • 2,446 total American deaths

The American Civil War

Ironically, the Civil War was the last time American men took up arms to fight for freedom, and they lost. 

The War Between the States is the most misunderstood and deliberately misconstrued conflict in American history. For the South, it was a war for independence initiated by the desire to preserve slavery. For the North, it was a war of subjugation, first justified by preserving the union, then later, once it was decided that it would prevent British intervention, ending slavery. 

We did not have to fight this war and it could have been avoided entirely. Lincoln could have recognized the will of a supposedly free people, and the nation could have split peacefully. 

Instead, Lincoln kept federal troops in military forts throughout the South despite constant Confederate demands for a withdrawal. Lincoln kept this charade going for months, attempting to force the South to fire the first shot. It worked. P.G.T. Beauregard ordered the bombardment of Fort Sumter, effectively beginning the U.S. Civil War. 

The total cost of their war:

642,427 Union casualties:

  • 110,100 killed in battle
  • 224,580 diseases
  • 275,174 wounded in action
  • 30,192 prisoners of war

483,026 Confederate casualties:

  • 94,000 killed in battle
  • 164,000 diseases
  • 194,026 wounded in action
  • 31,000 prisoners of war

Distinguished Civil War historian James McPherson has estimated that there were 50,000 civilian deaths during the war, overwhelmingly from the South, and has concluded that the overall mortality rate for the South exceeded that of any country in World War I and all but the region between the Rhine and the Volga in World War II.

Mexican-American War

President Polk instigated this war after Mexico refused to sell California, Oregon, and the American Southwest. Polk got his war by sending American troops deep inside disputed territory between the Rio Grande and Nueces River. Mexican troops eventually attacked the unit, killing about a dozen Americans. 

The total cost of their war:

  • 4,152 WIAs
  • 1,733 KIAs
  • 11,550 non combat deaths
  • 13,233 total American deaths

Time and time again, the American government has proven that it is willing to lie to, kill, and sacrifice its citizens and military members for the financial ambitions of the elite. Nothing has changed. The same type of people pulling the strings then are the same type pulling Biden’s now. America is the bad guy. It has been, is , and will continue to be the bad guy until good men have the courage to take our country back.

Our sons will continue dying in pointless establishment wars until we free ourselves from the elite who send them.
