    Is it that you don’t know what “every country” means?

    Sigh....

    So we are "occupying" Japan? Germany? South Korea? The U.K. since we have troops there?

    We are illegally occupying dozens of countries.
    all of them.
    I can’t get any clearer. All of them.
    Then you know the billions of dollars we are spending do not benefit the men in uniform.

    No you can’t.

    Yes. We are not at war with them, and have no constitutional authority to be occupying them.

    The nature of warfare has change. The enemy has changed. How do you declare war on non nation state without giving it nation status? Many of our enemies do not have countries to declare war on how would to handle them? The Islamic terrorist grousp are just one example….

    them change the constitution.

    You don’t. A group of non military rebels are not a threat to the United States and we have no constitutional authority to attack them.

    Islamic terrorist groups can not attack the United States.

    You have little to no understanding of defense or military matters, current or historical. Lucky for you that other do and you can safely and freely live behind the wall they provide you.

    Enough of you for me.

    Of course I do. You know nothing at all about me. I’m sorry you don’t like the constitution but that won’t make it go away. Current military operations are nothing but a money making machine.

    Pick up your ball and go home pouting if you want.

    Just because something is in the U.S. Constitution doesn't make it sacred or beyond question.

    You want to slash the military by 30%??? Seems like an odd thing to say from a big Trump supporter.

    Prove it. You want me to list how many major defense contractors have disappeared over the last 30 years?

    They didn’t attack the United States. They murdered 3,000 people using a plane. Timothy mccveigh did something similar with a bomb.

    You suggested amending the Constitution. So obviously you don't respect it as written.

    I’ve already proven it. We outspend the next closest country by a factor of 4, AND WE ARENT AT WAR. We are in no danger of any country attacking the continental US.

    That is a completely insane interpretation of the events of 9-11 given that the Pentagon is the headquarters for the U.S. Dept. of Defense.

    It’s just reality. 12 people, not military combatants, killed a bunch of civilians. Timothy mccveigh did the same thing.

    IIRC on 9-11 dozens of U.S. military personnel were killed as well.
