I know you're doing a good job because just about everything you write scares the shit out of me.

This is what happens when you misdiagnose the problem. It's "Iran backed", not Iran led. If we weren't messing around with these countries, plausibly they wouldn't be running to Iran for help. The real real problem is that the US wants to rule the world and we haven't figured out that ruling the world is like herding cats. Good luck with that.

And yet the interest payment on the National debt is even higher than our defense budget!

Our defense budget is one of the two main drivers of that debt!

It'll be big when some Congress critter truly goes after this blob. There's a huge opportunity for an honest legislator to jam a stick in the spokes of the war machine and demand the DoD pass the audit it never has prior to releasing its funding. They're all scared of being called sissies but after the fact all these violence adventures are termed failures. Someone needs to get bold.

Also, Ken, I totally endorse this windmill to battle!
