Has the neocons purposely destroyed our military?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I saw the above article and begin to really think about what has been done. The neocon agenda is to have one military power under the UN. In order for that to happen the American military would have to go away, like the armies of Europe. That means the bankers would be in full control of the world. They already have a replacement army, blackwater, who they are equipping to the hilt. Europe was dupped into believing the American army would be their saving grace, but who will protect them and us, once the American army is gone? Who will protect the world from the bankers? Our fight was not overseas! our fight was here at home, against the bankers!It is a fact that this country is vunerable to attack and take over? Did the leadership of both parties do this purposely? If so that is treason!

Where are you seeing the destruction?

The amreican military is not getting that money. My family is military and they are not getting paid anymore, they are going back to war zones 3-4 times. But Blackwater is an international group,it's doing very well. They have the best equipment and are paid as contractors 4-5 times what the American military is receiving. I'm saying I know the military budget and war costs are high, but what military is being built up? Is there an American military to protect America or is it being converted to an international military to protect UN/one world government interests? Where's the money really going?I'm going back to look up what Ron Paul has been saying about our military being spread thin and not being able to defend America. Is this what he has been saying?

So Blackwater is being built up militarily huh? I was told
that they actually started buying fighter jets. I've not
confirmed this though... do you know anything about this?

I agree with the OP about the destruction and demoralization
of our military with these nonsensical wars. They are being
pushed to the point of fatigue.

Is Blackwater going to be the "foreign" military force that
will be used to invade the US and force NAU or even NWO?
Speculation... but interesting facts to consider: You can't
argue that our military is being wasted away while Blackwater
is building up.

See, that's what I'm asking. Is the American military being pushed to the brink of extermination, while another more powerful world army is being built by the money we are spending? Where's the money going? The militaries of Europe are all but gone, since the EU took over. Is that happening now by stretching our AMERICAN military so thin? By funding this war, are we actually funding another military, that would be used to control us?

Truthwarrrior do you know of any charts that might show payroll? But, it just doesn't seem to me, that if soldiers are going back several times to war zones, that the military could be growing. So, what's happening with the money?

Just did a google search: check this out!

It's for certain we are funding this group. Why is this group needed instead of our current military? The money we are spending on this group, why are we not spending on our american military?

Contract corporate services are under NO government limitations, the military is.

Here's another article about military short falls

This was very interesting. Where's all the money going?

This was very interesting. Where's all the money going? If it's not going to the troops, why do we kept being fed this line of crap, support the troops with more money. Support the troops? They are being supported if the money's not getting to them.

The risk to the nation is serious and deepening, senior officers warn, because the U.S. military now lacks a large strategic reserve of ground troops ready to respond quickly and decisively to potential foreign crises, whether the internal collapse of Pakistan, a conflict with Iran or an outbreak of war on the Korean Peninsula. Air and naval power can only go so far in compensating for infantry, artillery and other land forces, they said. An immediate concern is that critical Army overseas equipment stocks for use in another conflict have been depleted by the recent troop increases in Iraq, they said.

When McCain swings his banner "Support the troops" what troops is he talking about?

Wonder if it is NATO...

Concerning equipment: I've seen plenty of these in my area lately being transported on trucks and trains. It's not rare for me to see at least 5-10 in a weeks time for the past month. My cousin's husband and my uncle both work for ForceProtection. The last time I spoke to either one of them they said the factory has been on overdrive.

Force Protection Rolls Out First Ridgback Vehicles for the British Ministry of Defence
Publisher: Force Protection, Inc.
Date: 08/05/2008

Ladson, S.C. (August 5, 2008) – Representatives of Force Protection Industries, Inc., (NASDAQ:FRPT), the U.S. Government and the British Ministry of Defence gathered today as Force Protection rolled out the first five new Ridgback vehicles developed specifically for the British Ministry of Defence (MOD). The Ridgback is comparable to Force Protection’s Cougar 4x4 vehicle.

“The delivery today of the first five Ridgback vehicles represents an important step in our continuing efforts to provide critical protection for the British forces. Through the efforts of many people within Force Protection, we are able to deliver these first Ridgback vehicles one month ahead of schedule,” said Michael Moody, chief executive officer.

The British Ministry of Defence has ordered 157 Ridgback vehicles for a total cost of approximately $94 million. Although the British Ministry of Defence has used the Cougar 6x6 (Mastiff) since late 2006, this is the first Ridgback delivery to the United Kingdom.

Isn't this tinfoil hat conspiracy stuff? I believe that the US Military is being misused and that there has been some "wear and tear" because of the needless wars in the middle east, but I don't believe in an overarching conspiracy or a major weakness in the US military. We need our military to be applied constitutionally and not to function as a UN Peacekeeping force or a nation building force or anything else like that.

Our military is strong. What's being driven home is the message that soldiers are expendable.
