Ex-US soldier gets consecutive life sentences for killing couple to fund Venezuela mercenary fighting plans

Dubya hired Cheney who lied us into two wars by killing thousands of American civilians on home soil and deleting a landmark from the landscape.

I'd say Trump has now out Bushed the Bushes.

Not with wars. Maybe he killed more of us with the jab.

How many Iraqis did Dubya kill before even attempting to get Congressional authorization?

Don't know, and you don't either. When you've killed several thousand Americans to get that vote, what difference does that make? Did he get Congressional approval to declare war on Lower Manhattan?

I'm not saying she a saint by any stretch of ther imagination. But at this moment in time she is better than Lindsey Graham or the right wing nut merc who just killed two people to fund his own private war with Venezuela.

Nobody is better than anybody in this situation. Clinton, Graham and anybody else who wants war with Venezuela are all on the same equal footing. There’s no reason to believe Clinton is being honest and truthful in opposition to this particular war. If she wants people to believe her then maybe she shouldn’t have spent her whole career being a warhawk.

I sincerely doubt he had any clue of what happened on 9/11.

I didn't say she was being truthful. Donald Trump lies when he says he's against gun control. But gun control is a left-wing position and pro war is a right wing position. Ask yourself this question. Where you are more likely to find commentators who are pro war? On Democracy Now or on Newsmax? But I get it. This is a right leaning forum and threads about left wingers talking about killing people are far more popular than threads about right wingers actually killing people.

... which worked hard since '08 to create an antiwar faction in the GOP. Even as the antiwar faction of the Democrats was disappearing.

And sometime in 2016 that project started being abandoned in favor of backing a former Democrat who passed himself off as a semi-antiwar Republican and has now morphed into someone who's making up his own definition of WMD in order to justify war. I'm sure Dubya would have loved that trick if he'd thought of it. "Those sand dunes are WMDs!" The current more dangerous trend is the "Leftists are really trying to kill us" trend. Some? Maybe. But there are pyschopaths on both sides. I happen to believe that a merc who's so gung ho to fight in Trump's next war that he's willing to kill strangers he doesn't know to fund it is most likely right wing even if he, like Lindsey Graham, supported Biden's war as well. But maybe you think he's somehow antifa. I dunno.

"Both" sides? I happen to know there are more than two sides, because ever since "both" sides went pro war, I've been on a different side from "either" one.

A mercenary is a mercenary. He goes where the killing is. Some of them go because that's the only place they can kill people without going to jail. Few care about politics at all as long as one or two countries have a war somewhere.

And don't laugh at one country having a war all by itself. We created ISIS and sent it to Syria. Israel created Hamas.

Great! But at this point I'm more concerned about the sides that want to kill each other over here, while pretending it's just the "other guy", than I am those who want to drag us to war over there. It's much easier to avoid going to war in someone else's country than it is to avoid war in our own.
