Wasn't even a dive, just seeing what he has in his header. I wanted to see if he was a 'back the blue' bootlicker upset that the fruitless sacrifices of servicemen was made light of, or if he was a kike apologist upset at the insinuation that the US is a vassal state to jewish interests. A little of the former, but mostly the latter.
Asked him the obvious question in a slightly less agro way then the other people in the thread
"Then explain any war since the fucking Mexican American war did anything for the folks back home?"

I read a phenomenal book by a high-ranking Navy official that he wrote as his dissertation at the U.S. Naval War College. It was specifically about how the Spanish-American war (1898) was the first U.S.-led false flag operation in modern history.
*Yes, I know!*
I have to find the book. It's over 20-years-old now, but it was a fascinating, candid read, especially from such a high-ranking military official. I know that he had his dissertation available online as a PDF.

The Spanish-American war took place in Cuba. There was a massive concerted propaganda effort. Theodore Roosevelt loved the war; he'd be promoted to colonel. Thomas Edison made home movies with actors impersonating Spanish soldiers "kidnapping" White women.
These reels were played at cinemas and presented as news. There were news reports of Spanish galleons raiding cruse ships on the Mississippi River. Think about that ... *Spanish galleons navigating the shallow Mississippi River?* The public was in a frenzy and there was genuine belief that Spain was going to invade America. Support for the war was through the roof. Young men volunteered from all over.
Of course, it was all a lie. The USS Maine -- with American sailors sleeping aboard -- was bown up and sunk by America itself.
A big part of it was that the Civil War had just ended 30 years prior, and there was still a strong lingering resentment between North and South. The Spanish-American war helped "unify" the nation by presenting an exterior "boogieman" to rally everyone together; hence soldiers from North and South were fighting together for the first time as a unified army. There were even units for negro soldiers. Everyone was supposed to feel involved, even the women, and they were all fighting as "United Americans."
The other side of the war, which thankfully failed, was America's desire to steal Cuba and then Jamaica. It was part of the growing sentiment/ doctrine of Manifest Destiny. America failed to take Cuba, but it soon reorganized (with Roosevelt leading much of the charge) to conquer the American West. Overall, however, the goal of this whole PsyOp was to force the nation to "get over" the Civil War and come together as one people, at least politically, and expand West.
... and it was all kicked off on a false flag lie!
Ukraine simp, 'femboy', location: Jerusalem.
I didn't bother to dive into his profile because it's obvious he's a Kool-Aid drinker.
