U.S. military spending resembles massive financial black holes sucking up $trillions and causing tragic loss of life. More terrifying weapons are now being planned by the Biden administration. A new nuclear weapon will be the length of a bowling lane and will be able to travel some 6,000 miles, carrying a warhead more than 20 times more powerful than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. It will be able to kill hundreds of thousands of people in a single shot. The US Air Force plans to order more than 600. 

Perhaps few Americans are old enough to remember the terror tactics used by the CIA/MI6 in the theft of Iran’s oil in 1953 and the overthrow of their democracy which morphed into the present-day theocracy. The 1953-coup resulted in $trillions of lost revenues to the Iranian people. 

Fast forward to 18 May 2018, when then President Trump in an effort to ingratiate himself with Israel and then Prime Minister Netanyahu, withdrew America from the 2015 nuclear agreement and then followed by imposing crippling sanctions causing enormous hardship to the Iranian people already suffering from the Covid pandemic. Iran countered by accelerating its bomb making material previously kept under tight control by UN inspections. Assassinations of Iran’s Nuclear scientists by Israel ushered in a hard line government which has moved their country closer to China and Russia, - a massive strategic failure of US foreign policy.
