Dead man’s switch

I’ve been watching this video:

The first thing that crosses my mind is that Americans can’t seem to stop personalizing politics, which is incredibly weird in their own situation, since it’s obvious that the hidden men behind the curtain actually run the system, and the men on the stage are merely puppets; the similarity between foreign policies of Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama and Trump are such, that if you ignored the media circus (Republicans evil, senile and stupid, Democrats nice, charming geniuses) and only watched the actual events and actions, you couldn’t see a difference in government to save your life. So, the assumption that one senile man caused all this, and the system is fine otherwise, is as deluded as the Democrats blaming all kinds of Obama policies on Trump. No; one man, especially the senile dotard Biden, can’t decide or do anything on his own over there. Their system is designed to inhibit people who want to go rogue; we saw that in the Trump administration, where the president was completely blocked from making any decisions other than those pre-approved for him. American presidents are lame ducks by design. No, it’s not Biden the Senile who made this mess; everything was designed and planned by the same men behind the curtain who hindered Trump. Call it deep state, call it the intelligence community, I don’t care, but don’t tell me that the president runs America because you’ll make me laugh so hard I’ll snort my coffee all over my keyboard, which is going to be unfortunate because I just got a new one and I really like it.

The second thing that I found remarkable is that Shapiro cites facts that make it blatantly obvious that America designed the entire system of armament and logistics of the Afghan army to be completely dependent on America, to the point where they literally can’t use anything without a constant, continuous American line of support, in a very literal sense where they would need to have American mechanics and other specialists constantly maintaining the helicopters and other aircrafts or the stuff won’t work. It’s a dead man’s switch – if a dependent country goes “rogue”, basically if it tries to have an independent policy in any way or form, or tries to change allies, their entire military becomes inoperative after a very short period of time, intentionally designed into the equipment by introducing short maintenance cycles, replacement parts that are made only in America and are probably difficult, impossible or uneconomical to produce locally, and I’m not even talking about likely software issues, where things would need manufacturer approved diagnostic/service tools to be plugged into the hardware in order to make it work after it presumably shut down “to protect itself” after the expiration of an intentionally short duty cycle. Essentially, if you’re an American ally and you can’t produce your own weapons, absolutely count on the fact that the weapons you bought from America, and for good money, will stop working instantly if you decide to go against American “interests” in any way. Basically, buy American, be a slave; because that’s what the “freedom” they so loudly advertise actually means. It means compliance with American wishes, or your world ends. Or they just leave when it’s no longer in their interest to stay, and your world ends.
