Trump’s promise to chair warfare. He greeted the opposite opinion
It is difficult now, but Donald Trump has once promised to be a president to combat war. “I will not start the war,” He said when he won his re -election. “I will stop wars.”
Instead, wars under Trump became more deadly and expanding. Trump continues to arm Israel and Defending the Prime Minister Despite the country The well -documented genocide in Gaza. Russia’s war with Ukraine – Trump He said again and again It will end within “24 hours” of taking office – he was bloody as it was always.

The first is the escalation of US military operations in the Middle East and East Africa. The first country to be bombed When Trump returned to the White House, Somalia was, and Washington bombed East Africa over and over since then. The Pentagon carried out what he boasted “The largest air strike” In history in the country in May.
Trump also bombed Yemen earlier this year – only to Enter heterogeneously When it was clear that the United States was Failure in its military targets. Of course, the United States joined Iran’s uncomfortable bombing of 12 days this summer-which led to the fantasies of falcons and new conservatives in Washington, Trump.
Second, Trump uses the “war on terror” framework to bring a new era from American militarization to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean.
The Caribbean Sea region was part of the “war on terror” from the beginning. Starting in 2001, the United States began to benefit from its military base in the Gulf of Guantanamo, Cuba – which was at that point in Washington’s possession for more than a century – as a bad imprisonment for torture and detention without charge. This farce continues, despite the repeated Cuban demands to return the land.
The United States is kidnapped for Muslims all over the world Their detention and torture in Guantanamo The global floor for people’s treatment has been reduced in detention. An inhuman name for these men as “terrorists” – though this One conviction Anyone is held in the history of the entire Bay of Guantanamo – was essential in his poor treatment.
Others-especially Nayb Boucil, noted the President of El Salvador and “the most wonderful dictator in the world.”
Bukele built one of the largest prisons on the ground and described it as the terrorist detention center. After I moved away from arbitrary detention and a period that is not specified in the name of targeting gangs and combating “terrorism”, a agent imprisoned the enthusiasm of immigrants. Trump was deported from the United States without due legal proceduresOften in horrific circumstances.
Like Bukele, Trump nominates with a tactic to put signs of individuals and forces as “terrorists” to justify military violence against them. for him hiring Of Mexican drug gangs and technical and al -Salvadorian gangs as “terrorist organizations” that enables the US government to enact a set of measures against groups – including the implementation of military attacks. Trump also announced A similar designation For hallway gangs.
Finally, Trump expands the local aspects of the “war on terror” strongly.
The budget bill that was approved in Trump increases the ICE budget From a dollar9.3 Billionaire last year With an annual average of $ 37.5 billion – sugar from The entire military budgets for most countries on the face of the earth. After the deployment of the National Guard and the Marine Corps to Los Angeles to take strict measures against the protests that challenge deportations, the White House Then it was approved Publishing 700 other maritime infantry on three other states to help ICE.
Recently, Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard in the streets of Washington, DC, is supposed to be in the name of repression on the crime. Low violent crime rates in the capital and Other cities He suggested that sending the forces has a greater relationship with the elastic authoritarian muscles and forcing the homeless to get out of view rather than solving a problem.
That is, Trump will bring a new era of reduced wars that are destroyed through the opposite brutal reality. With Trump’s policies resisting in all fields – from immigration raids to Amana network discountsIt is important to challenge militarization. Our demands for justice must include in the future as we end these wars once and forever.
