thinking like the crazy master.......

America has been in 19 wars since World War II, but we will list the death toll from three of the bloodiest conflicts: The Korean War, The Vietnam War and wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The total death toll of people killed by American troops in all these wars put together is over 12 million. 

Each of these three conflicts have something in common: they were wars fought in the name of making the world "safe for democracy." 

A particular horror was the largest use of chemical weapons against civilians since World War II, the massive use of Agent Orange against Indochina where it continues to poison people today.  It may take Vietnam and Laos thousands of years to recover.  In the case of Iraq, American spy satellites helped Saddam Hussein use use poison gas against the troops of Iran.

We are not condemning all aspects of these wars.  Nor do we suggest that a lot of American enemies are wonderful people.  However, we need to take a hard look at the horrors that were unleashed.   Was it really necessary to invade places like Vietnam and Iraq and kill millions in these wars?   We are not convinced that the answer is yes.

Update: In a new report, the estimate of people killed in conflicts after 9/11 has increased to 4.5 million.

THINKING LIKE THE MASTER IDIOT….

 

Just for the exercise, I am going to push a VERY controversial concept… But first we have to answer a few questions:

 

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED FROM AMERICAN MILITARY INTERVENTION?

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED FROM AMERICAN POLITICAL MANIPULATIONS?

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DISPLACED FROM AMERICAN MILITARY INTERVENTION?

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DISPLACED FROM AMERICAN POLITICAL MANIPULATIONS?

 

ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS WILL PROVIDE A BASIS FOR BEING BLUNT LIKE MAD TRUMP ON GAZA…

 

Millions of people have been killed by direct war violence in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan. The number of people who have been wounded or have fallen ill as a result of the conflicts is far higher, as is the number of civilians who have died indirectly as a result of the destruction of hospitals and infrastructure and environmental contamination, among other war-related problems.

Thousands of United States service members have died in combat, as have thousands of civilian contractors. Many have died later on from injuries and illnesses sustained in the war zones. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and contractors have been wounded and are living with disabilities and war-related illnesses. Allied security forces have also suffered significant casualties, as have opposition forces.

Far more of the people killed have been civilians. 

 

Millions of people living in the war zones have also been displaced by war. (4 million REFUGEES in TURKEY, one million REFUGEES in JORDAN, etc.).The U.S. post-9/11 wars have forcibly displaced at least 38 million people in and from Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, the Philippines, Libya and Syria. This number exceeds the total displaced by every war since 1900, except World War II.

The U.S. could have pursued several nonmilitary alternatives to holding accountable those responsible for perpetrating the 9/11 attacks. These alternatives would have been far less costly in human lives. For example, the U.S. invasion of Iraq turned the country into a laboratory in which militant groups such as Islamic State have been able to hone their techniques of recruitment and violence. The formation of Islamist militant groups spreading throughout the region counts among the many human costs of that war.

UNHCR most recently estimated that, by the middle of 2023, for the first time in recorded history, the number of people forcibly displaced is now over 110 million, with over 36.4 million refugees.

 As of January 2025, more than 6.8 million people have fled Ukraine as refugees, and over 3.5 million people are displaced within the country. The war in Ukraine [PROVOKED BY THE AMERICAN EMPIRE/NATO] has caused a humanitarian crisis, with millions of people needing aid and protection. 

Nearly 1.3 million Ukrainian refugees were in Russia [BY CHOICE] as of December 31, 2023, where the UNHCR has expressed concerns regarding their legal status, rights, and access to services within the country. More than 1 million are in Germany, and around 2.5 million in Western Europe, with notable differences between countries.

 

DEATH TOLL FROM MODERN AMERICAN WARS KILLED IN THE NAME OF "FREEDOM"

ACCORDING TO SOME EXTENSIVE RESEARCH, ABOUT 120 MILLION PEOPLE (CIVILIANS) HAVE DIED DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY FROM AMERICAN INTERVENTION (WARS).

WE CAN ASSUME THAT THE AMERICA EMPIRE AFFECTED ABOUT 10 PEOPLE AROUND THESE DEATHS — ADDED TO THE 3 PERSONS RATIO TO DEADS, ALSO INJURED/MAIMED.

IT CAN BE EXTRAPOLATED THAT AT ANY ONE TIME MORE THAN HALF THE HUMAN POPULATION OF THE PLANET — ABOUT 2.5 BILLION BY END OF WW2, TILL NOW 8.4 BILLION — HAS BEEN AFFECTED BY THE AMERICAN EMPIRE WHICH CONTROLS MOST OF THE SURFACE OF THE GLOBE WITH ITS NAVY, AIRFORCE AND TROOPS…

SO, why get upset about a Donald Trump idea of ‘IMPROVING” Gaza by moving its population of 1.9 million, refurbishing the place and bringing THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO COME BACK back WITH SOME BENEFITS FOR THEM (they can even help for quids IN THE RECONSTRUCTION) AND for THE REST OF THE WORLD? IS THIS CRAZY OR NOT?…

OF COURSE, THIS IS CRAZY... MAY AS WELL LET ISRAHELL KILL OFF ALL THE PALESTINIANS — AS THE CRAZY ISRAELIS INTEND TO DO, ONCE THE EXCHANGE OF "HOSTAGES" HAS BEEN COMPLETED... WHILE WE CARRY COMPLAINING ABOUT ISRAHELL AND DO NOTHING MORE THAN SUPPLY MORE BOMBS?

THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT ALL THE PREVIOUS AMERICAN ADMINISTRATIONS HAVE DONE CRAZIER THINGS THAN WHAT TRUMP IS PROPOSING, BUT THESE ADMINISTRATION HID THEIR NEFARIOUS HYPOCRITICAL WORK, WHILE TRUMP BLUNTLY EXPOSES A POSSIBLE CRAZY DEAL WHICH COULD BRING A "BETTER PEACE"....

WEIRD… CRAZY... CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!

Trump's Gaza Proposal Revives 'Colonial Legacy' - Middle East Experts

 

Donald Trump said the US would take over war-ravaged Gaza and turn it into the "Riviera of the Middle East" after resettling Palestinians elsewhere.

US President Donald Trump's idea is "irresponsible and inhumane," Dr Tamer Qarmout, an associate professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, tells Sputnik.

The people of Gaza expected that after all the atrocities the US would chart a political path to ending the conflict and helping Gaza’s recovery and reconstruction, the pundit notes.

"It's like you revive colonial legacies and high imperialism where some countries decide the fate of other countries, of other people," Qarmout warns. "This is shocking. And it's very, very dangerous."

Palestinians reject US President Donald Trump's plan to resettle them from the Gaza Strip to Jordan and Egypt, which are incapable of absorbing such a huge number of refugees, Ayman Yousef, a professor at the Arab-American University in Palestine, tells Sputnik.

Washington and Tel Aviv are using the Fatah-Hamas discord to push ahead with their agenda, the professor says.

"At the Palestinian level we have to bridge this gap between Fatah and Hamas and we have to go for more concrete project of [national] reconciliation," Yousef stresses.

Trump could help if he "impose[s] more restrictions over Israel in order to contain Israeli future military actions in Gaza," the pundit says.

What Does Trump Mean That the US Will "Own Gaza"?

BY ANDREW ANGLIN

 

From the time it became obvious that Donald Trump was going to win the 2024 election, I said that this whole thing was going to be about Israel. We’d be lucky to get a few things from him, but it would be the Israel administration.

However, when he came in, he made a point to push for a ceasefire in Gaza and an Israeli pullout of the Palestinian territory, which couldn’t really be framed as a good thing for Bibi Netanyahu and his war effort, as it was effectively a surrender to Hamas.

On Tuesday, Bibi became the first foreign leader to visit the White House under the new Trump administration, and during a press conference they held together, Trump announced that the US – not Israel, but the US – is going to “own” Gaza, and all of the people living there now will be removed.

“The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too,” Trump told reporters.

He said that “if necessary,” he would deploy US troops to the territory. It’s not clear how there could be a situation where that would not be necessary.

“I do see a long-term ownership position and I see it bringing great stability to that part of the Middle East,” he said, adding that Gaza would become the “Riviera of the Middle East.”

He said that the Palestinians living in Gaza would be moved to Egypt and Jordan.

These are incredibly shocking statements, which do not even seem to make sense.

What exactly is he talking about doing? Sending in the US military to do a complete ethnic cleansing of the area, and then making it a US colony? What else could this mean?

It lines up with statements made by Trump’s Jewish son-in-law Jared Kushner last year, who called for removal of the population and developing the real estate of Gaza.

However, at that time, you would have assumed he was talking about Israel doing the development (at least the Israeli state managing it, while most of the money would likely come from American-Jew investors). Calling for it to be turned into a US territory is something no one had even thought of. I had not thought of it. This is very extreme. It is more extreme than helping the Jews to take it over.

As the Jews found out over the past year and a half, it is not easy to remove Hamas. If you then add the mission of removing nearly two million people who do not want to leave, this becomes a massive military operation that will take years.

The rest of the Middle East is also going to rise up against this. Most concerningly, it will trigger a US war with Iran.

No one in the Trump base wants another major Middle Eastern war, other than maybe some evangelical cultists. This is a total Jew thing. The US has zero interest in Gaza, and there is no possible way that the other states in the region can be convinced to go along with this.

It appears that Trump came in with this barrage of executive orders targeting immigrants, trannies, and others for the purpose of hyping up the base so he could drop this Jewish insanity bomb on them.

If this is really the plan, this is going to define the entirety of the four years to come, and many years after that. There is not any quick solution to subduing the entire Middle East, and war with Iran will be much worse than the very long war with Iraq.

This appeared to be an official announcement by Donald Trump of a plan he has formed with the Israelis. But nothing was explained. The reporters did not take the opportunity to get him to elaborate in any meaningful way. I’m sure he’ll be questioned further in the future, but as of right now, this does not make any clear sense.

Obviously, we still need to take anything good we can get from Donald Trump. But this is an unveiling of the direction the administration is going to go in, which is exactly what we expected, given the amount of money Trump recieved from the Jews, and given that the US electoral system is fake and the only way Trump was able to win was that the Jews wanted him to win.

Again, we don’t understand what this means yet, but if it means what it sounds like it means, this is a war that could require a military draft. Iran is a very big country, and there is just going to be violence everywhere in the Middle East when there is video seen everywhere of US troops going in and forcibly marching people out of Gaza.

This is happening at the same time that Israel is making bigger moves in the West Bank, and if you’re going to remove the people of Gaza, there is no reason not to remove the people of the West Bank as well.

After Trump’s statements, Saudi Arabia quickly issued a statement saying that this would make normalization with Israel impossible. If it is actually US troops on the ground forcing out the Palestinians, which is what Trump apparently just said was going to happen, it would cause a total fallout of US relations with Saudi and others in the Gulf.

China issued a statement demanding this doesn’t happen, and the US implement a two-state solution. That is obviously their position, as the Chinese have always defended Palestine, but the reality of the situation is that if the US gets bogged down in a massive war in the Middle East, they are not going to present any threat to China.

The war that Trump is apparently proposing would be the last gasp of the US empire. It would drain it of all remaining resources, and turn whatever remaining support it has around the world into hatred. That’s a good thing.

Everything is going according to plan.

People should read the article I published Sunday if they missed it. It’s about trying to get jobs in the Trump administration. When this empire comes crashing down, we are going to need people inside of the government, with credibility, to reshape a new government, and now is the time for right-wing people to get into these institutions.

It’s going to be a wild ride.
