Do you have a problem reading regular ASCII text, ref <official U.S. policy>

<a military college publish a novel about derring-do in the middle of
the 1980's by a character with a questionable C.V. who then went on to great commercial success publishing
multiple best-sellers consisting of nothing but propaganda for the military-industrial complex. I speak of Tom
Clancy, of course. One of the most loved creations of the C.I.A. and DoD of the last 50 years.>

or just a regular personal joy of quacking around, maybe within and under the brotherhood??

DOUBLETHINK AT ITS ESSENCE:

Re: The American military answers to the President. The President is elected by the people. There is a Congress, a Senate, a Supreme Court, and a free press that govern the actions of the President.

The exact reverse of this is reality. Your version is the Orwellian doublethink deception. Perhaps you can fool others. Good luck. Though, Ilmarinen sums you up beautifully.
