I have become so jaded I wouldn't put it past this administration to have deliberately sacrificed/put those soldier's in harms way for a reason to instigate a conflict. They are that shady.

I totally agree, and it doesn't make a difference in terms of "right" or "left" - they all want to remain in their positions of control and all the ones on both side are part of the "war machine" which is extremely lucrative and they likely own stock in some area of the military/industrial complex. War = Money...

Like allowing a known, identified Jihadist to recon and then return to blow up a crowd ( of OUR Allies and supporters) at Bagram and killing and mangling our dedicated service people and then pretending to hit back by drone-smoking an innocent Afghani and his family, then commenting how well the operation went overall (as they hid behind their desks, podiums, and hired propagandist media dummies) ?

I've distrusted everyone in the US war agencies since I began studying WW1 and WW2. There will ALWAYS be people like Edward Bernays hired by President Wilson to do a propaganda job on Americans after "we" reelected Wilson on a platform to stay out of WW1 to get us into it with all sorts of inflammatory propaganda most of it bare faced lies. How convenient the 1913 Federal Reserve Act was passed just in time for the 1914 war kickoff which needed big bank loans to get going and the USA just so happened to enter the war when the WW1 Allies ran out of liquidity for any more war loans from USA banks.

Or how about FDR who knew for weeks thanks thanks to Navy radiomen on Guam that the Japanese had been doing daily and then hourly surveillance flights over that island where Navy contractors were scrambling to build the island's first deep water military port. Yet, no US noncombatant employees were evacuated, no reserves brought in, and instead they spent almost 4 years as POWs working as slave laborers for Japanese companies. When they got home the FBI told each one never to talk abut their POW experiences or they'd be put into Leavenworth prison for life. "There's a Cold War on! We need an occupation agreement signed with Japan the US populace will support!! We need Japan to rebuild fast to fight the boogymen Commies!!!!"

Shall we discuss the Vietnam war or 20+ years in Afghanistan?

Same old, same old. Don't fall for the propaganda lies by politicians and war business operatives who rarely put their own carcasses or those of their children on any battle fronts.

Why not Russia-Syria directly? or does Putin want a degree of separation? Assad is their boy and the entire mess of Syria has gone on too long, Biden talks about pulling out so why not a punch to the face to make the decision easier just like in Afghanistan? The doubters-conspiracy postulaters are only being consistent following the Nordstream sabotage narrative, the Afghanistan retreat narrative, the Southern US Border narrative, the CoVid19 origins narrative.....(I don't personally jump to that speculation quite yet myself but i understand the impulse).

I changed after reading Glenn Greenwald's book about Edward Snowden. I had originally bought into the media spin that he was a bad guy and traitor to the country. Not at all. He saw how the FBI and CIA ruin people's lives to clear their cases - he said they even laughed about it at happy hour. Reading about their elaborate set ups to take down someone innocent mind boggling. The movie about Richard Jewell was not a one off circumstance. Killing three soldiers to instigate a war? No problem.

It would totally not surprise me that it never happened. Our government (specifically the See Eye Aye) have created chaos, mayhem and death all over the world for decades to justify war. There is evidence that the attack in the Gulf of Tonkin never actually happened but it was used to get us into the Vietnam War. There are also declassified documents about Operation Northwoods where these f'ers wanted to create "false flags" to justify going to war with Cuba. These documents say they wanted to kill US troops and have false flag events around the country so they could invade Cuba (they were going to blame all of them on Cuba). It's pretty scary when you think about the implications of this. It is likely one of the reasons why JFK was murdered, but I digress.

Of COURSE, they did. What's 3 people to them? The 13 in Afghanistan meant nothing. Don't forget how they turned the government -sponsored and Fauci approved Covid Virus loose on us. That killed a million in our country alone, probably 15 - 20 million world-wide. Add to that the neither safe, nor effective "vaccine" which they are still pushing. And even though everyone knows everything about everything, the biolabs are still thriving! Everything the government is doing is designed to destroy us. The 150 plus food plants that have mysteriously blown up or burned to the ground. Pretty hard to convince me those were all accidents or acts of God. They want us to get weaker and dumber and less healthy. They know how to gain control. We showed them how easy it is. We turned on our own parents in our haste to lock down. They want to scare the hell out of us about our Catholic neighbors and they want us to turn on our grandmas. We did. We let grandma die alone in the nursing home. Yes, we showed them how easy that is, too.

The military brass allowed its own headquarters -- under the most heavily surveilled airspace in the world -- to get hit by something on a sunny Tuesday morning back in '01. Cheney, et al. were watching the thing come in toward the Pentagon and did 𝑒𝑥𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑙𝑦 nothing. There were military personnel in the Pentagon that morning that got "vaporized" along with the two 9-ton steel and titanium engines of the passenger airliner alleged to have hit the building.

Out of all the camera footage that covered the Pentagon, only one survives. I watched it and it was no plane. Could only have been a missile coming in a few feet off the ground. There were no plane parts at the Pentagon or at the Towers which clearly pancaked into their footprints as each floor was clearly seen in all video footage to be blown out from the inside. In a word, controlled demolition.

We have been under assault from our own Gov't in an actual kinetic war since at least 2001 and a military psy-ops that keeps us convinced it was foreign terrorism and a viral pandemic. Well, we are awake now.
