How did @SenSanders and @TulsiGabbard fool Americans into thinking they are anti-war? With the help of the mainstream media, obviously. This is what controlled opposition looks like.

It's worth reminding the @realDonaldTrump apologists who are saying that he's trying to avoid war (or at least stand up to the military-industrial-complex) that he's maintaining an interventionist foreign policy. Bring all troops home now! #NoWarWithIran
War is murder for profit. War on terror is fraud. It is time to end this! It's time to stand up and say we have had enough!

President of Iran: We just discovered that we have 1/3 more oil than we thought.
@realDonaldTrump: You want some freedom with that?
"Iran oil: New field with 53bn barrels found - Rouhani"

“The War on Terror is especially dangerous because it is based on an ever present hypothetical threat that can affect every aspect of our lives - giving governments an excuse to regulate every aspect of our lives.” - @adamkokesh
War is a racket! Always has been, always will be. @realdonaldtrump is just another swamp monster and a servant of the military-industrial-complex, just like every other President.

Contrary to rumor, I've never been this cool. That's not me in the video. Thanks anyway, @AsherLangton.

Hi @adamkokesh I'm wondering if you & other LP candidates like @RuffPhillips & the half-dozen I'm forgetting can help me today to spread this helpful URL.
I *think* we can all agree that @RonPaul was right over ~$1 TRILLION down the shitter ago.
Are the American people ready to overthrow the US imperialist regime? I sure hope so.

Now you know what fake anti-war candidates look like. Don't believe the mainstream media narrative. They are just as bought and paid for by the military-industrial-complex as Sanders and Gabbard. Of course, @realDonaldTrump is no better.
"Bernie Sanders’ record is not one of opposition to war and imperialism, since he has continually voted to provide the funds necessary to wage war."
"Gabbard won’t admit that, & as long as her supporters don’t press her on it, it’s doubtful that she ever will. Why would she? Her true believers have bought into the mythology so fully that they see an “anti-war” candidate in the reflection of a [pro-war] congresswoman."
"Sanders’ showed his continued support for imperialism by voting in favor of the mil budget in 2009, 2010, & 2013. He supported Obama’s actions against Libya, sanctions against Russia, a billion dollars in aid to the far right Ukrainian govt in 2014, & arming the Saudi monarchy.
"She followed up the next day with a tweet condemning President Obama and praising Putin: “Al-Qaeda attacked us on 9/11 and must be defeated. Obama won’t bomb them in Syria. Putin did.”"
"Sanders’ support for protecting Israel was not just in terms of words, but by votes to provide billions in military hardware and aid to the Apartheid state in 1997, 1999, 2004."
"When Russia launched its brutal bombing campaign on September 30, 2015, Gabbard tweeted her support for the bloody offensive, writing: “Bad enough U.S. has not been bombing al-Qaeda/al-Nusra in Syria. But it’s mind-boggling that we protest Russia’s bombing of these terrorists.””
"While Sanders has verbally opposed the Iraq War as illegal and wrong, this amounts to nothing but hot air since he regularly votes for military funding. If the war is illegal and wrong, then so is voting to fund it.”
"She has stated on numerous occasions that she supports expanding the use of drone strikes against military opponents, and, in 2014, refused to rule out the idea of using torture on suspected terrorists."
"He voted in favor of H.R. Res. 64, Auth for Use of Mil Force that provided a blank check to Pres Bush to utilize force against the terrorists responsible. ... the US launched mil actions against Afgh which over 18 yrs have led to thousands of deaths & devastated the country."
"In one of her first acts as a congresswoman, Gabbard broke with the Democratic Party to support a GOP funding bill because, as she explained at the time, “it provides important funds for our men and women serving overseas [and] our military-related jobs in Hawaii.”"
"However, the most notorious action of Sanders during the Clinton years was voting in favor of American bombing in Kosovo in 1999. When antiwar activists occupied Sanders’ office in 1999 due to his support for the war, he had them arrested."
"In May 2017, Gabbard announced on her website that she had recently stopped accepting money from several industries, including the defense sector — but by that point, she had already pocketed over $115,000 from arms dealers in just her first four years in Congress."
"In 1998, Sanders voted for the Iraq Liberation Act and another resolution that supported American measures to overthrow Saddam Hussein."
" ... as well as ... economic sanctions that may have killed as many as 500,000 Iraqi children."
"As Akbar Ahmed recently reported for HuffPost, Gabbard has accepted hefty donations from arms dealers like Lockheed Martin and Boeing, both of which ranked among the congresswoman’s top donors in the 2016 cycle. The defense industry was her third-largest source of funding."
"When peace activists planned to block the gate to the GE factory on June 20, 1983, Sanders refused to support them and had them arrested."
"Gabbard has situated herself as a peace advocate who isn’t afraid to stand up to the voices calling for “endless war” — but a look at her own record reveals that she has personally benefited from those who stand to gain the most from war."
"Bernie Sanders presents himself as an anti-war candidate. But he has voted in favor of almost every single U.S. military intervention in the last two decades."
