He defends imperialism in what way? I'm not sure we're talking about the same person at this point

He supports the current military budget and joined to kill people serving four tours and then serving as a mercenary for the excitement of killing people. He argues for massive shipbuilding buildup to "combat china", he supports extended benefits for military members to increase recruitment and on and on. He is not quiet about this his main problem with the current military isn't its action but what he views as waster and bad spending.
