What the military needs after Afghanistan
John Spencer and Steve Leonard
 
After 20 long years, the war in Afghanistan is coming to a close. Yet what does the next chapter for the U.S. military look like?

One projection involves an F-35 pilot shot down by Iran and a U.S. naval destroyer sunk by Beijing in the South China Sea. That is the fictional premise behind a new buzzed-about book, “2034.”

Book excerpt: ’2034: A Novel of the Next World War’

From two former military officers and award-winning authors, a chillingly authentic geopolitical thriller that imagines a naval clash between the U.S. and China in the South China Sea in 2034 — and the path from there to a nightmarish global conflagration.

The dismal prospects of how the U.S. military might fare in a future war, whether against China, Iran, or some other enemy, has Pentagon planners, defense manufacturers, and service chiefs bracing for a future that will not be kind to the defense budget. Besides ballooning national deficits, non-traditional national security priorities, and pushback against pricey yet unproven fighters like the F-35, the impact of COVID on the U.S. economy, two separate COVID relief packages, and the proposed “American Jobs Plan” could result in one of the biggest defense budget cuts in modern history.

This is easy.  The military needs to make sure women are reimbursed for hair rollers, lipstick, and eye liner.  That there are sufficient numbers world wide of rooms where people who are "triggered" can go and get themselves together.  They need to get out and forcefully recruit gays and trannies.  Stop recruiting whites, except gays and trannies.  Allow the troops to have their appearance any way they want.  Oh sure, all have the same uniforms, but things such as facial hair, body jewelry,l hair style, etc. left to the discretion of the individual.  Stop boot camp or make sure what DIs say isn't offensive to recruits or might hurt their feelings.  Give the troops an option of engaging in risky missions to make sure if they think it is too dangerous or they might be scared, they can go to the self reflection room instead.
