— As the only Senate candidate proposing to change the catastrophic US foreign policy and spending insanity,
Solis-Mullen will request support from local Democrats, Republicans, and independent voters of all faiths –
DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI – August 26, 2024 – At 6:00pm, September 12, Joseph Solis-Mullen will address concerns of local Muslims, Christians, Jews, and non-believers at the Golden Mirage located at 5640 N. Telegraph Rd., Dearborn Heights, MI 48127. Specifically, he will show why both Republican and Democratic voters must abandon the nearly identical major-party Senate candidates. He issued the following summary in advance of his appearance.
The Republican and Democrat candidates for US Senate from Michigan are serving up identical tax-stuffed, failed, freedom-destroying foreign and domestic policies. In Dearborn Heights, I will focus on their love affair with forever-wars waged against the interests of struggling US citizens. The forever-war regime in Washington, D.C., has sponsored dozens of violent coups, secret operations, and open warfare for decades – all in violation of the US Constitution. Don’t waste your vote on the Bobbsey-Twin deep-state kissin’-cousins, Elissa Slotkin and Mike Rogers. The stack of corpses, mangled bodies, blowback terrorism here in the US, and systematic betrayal of our freedoms must end now. It has left Americans broke and flattened under the boot of dozens of spying, intelligence, military, and law-enforcement bureaucracies that treat us as domestic enemies.
Here’s a trip down memory lane to review the horror shows of the Slotkin/Rogers policies:
- 1979 – President Carter authorizes the CIA to secretly assist Afghan mujahideen to provoke the Soviet Union to invade Afghanistan. Reagan continues this into the 80s – training, arming, and financing thousands of fighters who eventually formed al Qaeda.
- 1980-1988 – US supports Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Iran (Iran-Iraq War); 500,000 killed, 1 to 2 million casualties.
- 1990-1992 – US-trained jihadis assassinate rabbi Meir Kahane in NYC (1990) and target US marines in a botched Yemen bomb attack (1992).
- 1991 – US launches Gulf War against Saddam Hussein (Iraq) for invading Kuwait to stop Kuwaiti slant-drilling into Iraqi oil fields, which made it difficult for Iraq to repay debts owed to Kuwait incurred during the Iran-Iraq War. Saddam previously received assurances from US Ambassador April Glaspie that the US was not concerned.
- 1993 – On February 1993, terrorists explode a van beneath the WTC in NYC, killing six and intending to topple the WTC. The CIA assisted the organizer, “blind Sheikh” Omar Abdel Rahman, to enter the US as an old friend from Afghanistan. An undercover FBI agent assisted the plot, but he dropped out just before he was supposed to provide fake explosive in this FBI sting-operation-gone-bad.
- 1992-2001 – President Clinton’s sanctions and continuous bombing of Iraq kill over 500,000 children by 1996. During a 1996 interview on TV show 60 Minutes, Leslie Stahl asked UN Ambassador Madeleine Albright, about these deaths. She responded, “We think the price was worth it.”
- 1998 – Osama Bin Laden warns the US in a religious statement, called a fatwah, citing three US policies that require a response: (1) occupation of Islamic lands, such as the holy places in Arabia, (2) the 1 million civilian deaths in Iraq caused by President Clinton’s sanctions, (3) support of Israel against native Palestinians.
- 2001-2021 – The War in Afghanistan displaced 8 million refugees, killed 50,000 to 170,000 civilians, and injured hundreds of thousands more.
- 2003-2011 – The Iraq War overthrew Saddam Hussein’s Sunni-minority government and led to a takeover by the Shia majority. This strengthened ties to Iran (Shia), which the US claims is its enemy. The conflict spread to Syria and other countries. The death toll was between 100,000 and 1 million, with even more casualties.
- 2001-2017 – In the 800-plus terrorism cases prosecuted from 2001 to 2017, no terrorist ever attacked the US because of “freedom in the US.” The motivation was always resentment of US-sponsored violence overseas.
- 2011 – President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and the CIA conduct a regime change in Libya. Why? The 2011 Arab Spring revolts in the Middle East unseated unpopular US-supported dictators in Tunesia and Egypt. This harmed the US “image,” so the US concocts a PR stunt to “change the image of the United States overnight,” creating a story that Prime Minister Muammar Gaddafi planned to murder all civilians in the city of Benghazi. They arm rebels to provoke a civil war there. The result? The assassination of Gaddafi in October 2011 triggers a civil war that slaughters tens of thousands of Libyans and re-opens slave markets in Libya. Quite an accomplishment for America’s first black president.
- 2011-present – US foments civil war in Syria to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad. The US supports al Qaeda veterans, the Muslim Brotherhood, and rebels with arms funneled through Benghazi (Libya) and elsewhere.
- 2012 – Benghazi disaster: while the US supplied weapons to al Qaeda jihadis in Benghazi (to attack in Syria), relatives of former CIA torture victims urge the rebels to take revenge on the “US crusaders.” So, in September, these US-supported al Qaeda veterans kill US Ambassador Stevens and three other US citizens. Americans are not told how the rebels acquired these weapons or why. Yet another regime-change operation gone bad.
- 2014 – The US sponsors the Maidan coup in Ukraine, unseating democratically elected President Yanukovych to install an anti-Russian government. Why? Because Russia supported Assad in Syria, who asked Russia to help.
- 2016 – Two opposing militia factions, both funded by US taxpayers, fight each other near Aleppo, Syria. The CIA sponsored Fursan al Haq (Knights of Righteousness) while the Pentagon backed the Syrian Democratic Forces.
- 2020 – The FBI supplies undercover agents to instigate a plot to kidnap Governor Whitmer of Michigan. This entrapment case resulted in innocent verdicts and convictions that are now under appeal.
- 2022 – The US-sponsored expansion of NATO into 14 countries (now 16) surrounding Russia – despite agreeing not to do this as the price of re-uniting East and West Germany – provokes Russia to invade Ukraine.
- 2024 – US provides financial and military support for Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian civilians trapped in Gaza.
- Following the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Ukraine, the US now threatens China, Russia, and Iran while supporting armed conflicts in numerous countries in Africa and the Middle East.
The Republican and Democrat Senate candidates support perpetual interventionism abroad:
- On one side there’s the Democrat’s deep-state CIA candidate, Elissa Slotkin, who is Mike Rogers wearing a dress.
- On the other, there’s Republican deep-state FBI candidate, Mike Rogers, who is Slotkin without the dress.
Both candidates are devoted to the forever-war policy of the entrenched bureaucracy in Washington, D.C., supported by arms-industry lobbyists, Israel, Israel’s AIPAC lobbyists, and numerous companies that hold contracts with the Pentagon and Defense Department to supply everything from food to clothing and other supplies for troops located in 750 bases in foreign countries. As tax-cattle, Americans pay the price in poverty, fear of foreign blowback terrorism, a loss of liberty, and persecution by our own government, its judiciary, and law-enforcement agencies – federal and state.
Only Libertarian Party Senate candidate, Joseph Solis-Mullen offers an alternative to this perpetual atrocity.
