The Pentagon's long con

This article appears in The Nation.

 If true, which it probably is, then what is happening is shocking.

 Reading the article one is reminded of the 1988 Channel 4 'A Very British Coup' where a Labour prime minister attempts to remove nuclear warheads from the UK. A real and prophetic drama.

 As the article points out, we all know Trump is a con-man but the Pentagon is far more experienced and efficient in the dark art.
