  17. Modern day fxxking pirates. The USA goes around the world stealing natural resources from black and brown countries. We are stealing Syrian oil right now Trump stole it and Jim Crow Joe kept it. Tried to assassinate Nicholas Maduro to steal their dirty crude oil they have 250 year supply and trillions in minerals we failed miserably now CIA puppet Juan Guiado gets beaten in the streets.
    We tried to overthrow Bolivia and steal their lithium.Elon musk bragged about stealing it.
    We are in the horn of Africa trying to stop a coup d'etat by the Niger military that ousted the wests puppet leader. Niger wants the West gone France has been robbing them they supply France with their uranium they need for electricity they are dependent on Nigers uranium and they aren't going to let them use their own natural resources for their own people. A counter coup d'etat will be happening.
    We are in the horn of Africa plotting to steal Ugandas $13 trillion in gold they found this year.
    We are suing Mexico for nationalizing their lithium to take care of their own people our government wants a few rich mother fxxkers to get a piece of that pie or else. Now all of the sudden Mexico is a threat the cartels are a threat what Americans don't know is the The Zeta's founder's of the ultra violent Mexican Cartel were trained at The School of The Americas aka School of The Assassin's in Ft Benning Georgia these are the mother fxxkers that chop off peoples heads leave them in plies on the streets to terrorize citizens all with the blessings of the USA. El Chapo was a CIA asset so were The Quintero Brothers same men who killed DEA agent KiKi Camerana. We've been in bed with the Mexican cartels for a long fxxking time they do what we allow them to do!! America is just a criminal organization now the most evil brutal corrupt racist criminal organization in human history.πŸ‘πŸ˜΄πŸ‘πŸ˜΄πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…πŸ€£

  19. It should of already been done. America needs to stop being a vagina and start showing strength

  20. Oil companies should hire their own security hell the make tens of millions off of each trip. Don't put sending troops that are paid by our tax dollars. Make the rich oil companies pay for their own security

  21. There aren’t enough marines for this. They only have 2 divisions!!!

  22. How much money do these oil companies pay in taxes,we should not provide security for soverign corporations
