"The Department of Offense"

Great article by Major Danny Sjursen, whom I've posted on before, detailing the propaganda of empire and the curious title of Department of Defense. Let's look at some clever facts he cites:

U.S. troops are deployed in 70% of the world's countries

In the last few years the U.S. has been actively bombing seven nations

The U.S. has not followed the Constitution and actually declared war since 1942

The "Department of War" title was phased on in 1947, becoming the less threatening "Department of Defense"

Military speaks labels actions as counterinsurgency, stabilization operations, and police actions... rarely war

The U.S. has divided the entire planet into geographic military commands with generals overseeing every area

In the U.S. we live inside the belly of a military empire
