Why Does Trump Want U.S. Troops Back in Afghanistan?
Veteran: We Lied to You About What Happened in Afghanistan
Just over four years ago, the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan rapidly collapsed, marking the end of a two-decade effort to transform the country. The final days of U.S. involvement proved bizarrely emblematic of the tragedy that had unfolded up to that point. Afghans clinging to a U.S. airplane tumbled from the sky to their deaths. A suicide bomb left 13 U.S. service members and 170 Afghans dead. A U.S. drone killed seven children in what the U.S. military ineptly mischaracterized as a “righteous strike.” Good intentions and moral high ground gave way to national embarrassment.

Taiwan nears full deployment of US-made Abrams tanks
It’s almost like they never heard ‘never fight a land war in Asia.’ Napoleon tried Russia. Disaster. The British fumbled Afghanistan—twice. The U.S. waded into Vietnam—we all know how that ended. Then they gave Afghanistan a go, stuck around for two decades, and still left in chaos. But sure, let’s run it back one more time for fun. Maybe they should watch ‘The Princess Bride’—you know, for strategic guidance. 🤦🏼♀️

The Pale Horse: Death as a Consequence:
The pale horse, ridden by Death with Hades following, marks the culmination of the destructive cycle initiated by its predecessors. It represents the ultimate consequence of a society entrenched in imperialism, militarism, and economic exploitation—widespread death and decay. This horse serves as a stark reminder of the cost of complicity in systems of power and oppression, contrasting sharply with the life-giving path of Christ, who rejected earthly power for service and sacrifice.

The ‘Foreign Policy Consensus’ Is Alive and Well in Washington
The ‘Foreign Policy Consensus’ Is Alive and Well in Washington
by José Niño, Libertarian Institute
Brian Berletic, a former U.S. Marine now residing in Thailand, believes something bigger might be at play with Trump’s foreign policy agenda. The talk of foreign policy restraint vis-a-visa Russia is merely a facade. Berletic pointed out that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s “division of labor” framework during his February 2025 address in Brussels will only increase tensions with Russia.

The Latest on Colby’s Strategy of Denial
There’s little in Elbridge A. Colby’s past to suggest that President Trump’s most loyal and fierce allies would embrace him.
Mr. Colby, 45, has deep roots in the foreign policy establishment that Mr. Trump is trying to destroy. He is the grandson of the former C.I.A. director William Colby; a product of Groton, Harvard and Yale Law School; someone who has spent much of his career working across party lines on some of the most complex national security issues: nuclear weapons strategy, China’s military buildup, the commercialization of space.
