 Lessons from WARFARE n MILITARY STATE ! who put, controls or eliminates a puppet - well written in summary 
RFK Jr: “My uncle spent the 1,000 days of his administration battling his military apparatus and intelligence agencies to keep the country out of war”

“On October 22, 1963 … he signed National Security Order 263 ordering all military personnel home from Vietnam.

30 days after that, he was killed.

And a week after that, LBJ, his successor, remanded that order and sent 250,000 troops in, then Nixon came in and sent 560,000.

56,000 Americans never came home, including my cousin George Skakel, who died in the Tet Offensive. 
 Then came the Nixon Shock 1971 as a result of war n excessive spending ... then $36Trillion DEBT in next 55 yrs accelerating near $3T/yr spending ... 
 War is evil. Fiat = war
