These "foreign policy experts" are all Americans and their puppets right? And the policy they're expert in is their warmongering on the other side of the planet from their settler colony, right?

I know anything at all about American blood soaked history which makes me an expert in geopolitics.

Do you honestly think America wants WWIII with their #1 trading partner? The partner with, arguably, the 2nd most powerful military on the planet?

This isn't like the CIA taking over a banana republic in the 50's.
