Of course the US can. It's so infuriating that it has the money and resources to spend in whatever it wants and instead it's using it to finance death.

Of course, I think she's probably saying this at the GOP more than as a personal interest in war, as we've been hearing people talk about America doesn't have the resources, which even if true isn't something you would say if you "love america".

"We can afford anything when it comes to protecting our international position and pursuing national interests."

Unfortunately, international relations has never really cared about poors - if you study diplomatic relations they literally teach you that "human rights" wasn't even a concept to foreign relations between nation-states until the 20th century.

It’s so infuriating that [the US] has the money and resources to spend in whatever it wants and instead it’s using it to finance death.

As far as the burger regime is concerned, those are the same thing.
