The foreign policy of the United States is in the hands of the least capable, most uninformed, and most reckless morons the American education system has yet produced, and their successors, if any, will be worse.
American aggression toward the world is hidden under a euphemism: “national defense.” In past years before euphemisms took over from reality, the Secretary of Defense was known as the Secretary of War.
Washington conducted wars against Mexico. Against the Confederate States of America. Against the native American Indians. Against Spain from whom Washington seized Cuba and the Philippines. Against varied Central and South American countries–remember US Marine Commander Smedley Butler, twice decorated with America’s highest honor, who said that he and his US Marines were the enforcement squad in Latin America for the United Fruit Company and the New York Banks who were exploiting Latin America to the hilt, backed up by the bayonets of the US Marine Corps.
The name of the War Department changed, but we went on to wars in Korea, Vietnam, the Caribbean, overthrowing various countries in central and South America. Then in Africa where leaders and governments were overthrown. Then in Yugoslavia. Then in the Middle East where Washington eliminated Israel’s opponents for Israel. Then in South Ossetia against Russia. Then in Ukraine again against Russia. And now the US has wars pending against Iran and China, while continuing the one against Russia by shifting the burden to Europe.
In no way is this “national defense.”
We are witnessing the continuation of Washington’s policy of hegemony. Washington negotiates with Russia, China, Iran, for one purpose only. To present them with “peace agreements” that they cannot possibly accept in order for Washington to say it tried for peace, but Russia, China, and Iran refused the peace offers.
The “peace offers” amount to the surrender of sovereignty of Russia, China, and Iran. They have to conform their policies to Washington’s instructions. Iran has to dismantle its national defense and destroy its conventional missiles. Iran can’t sell any oil to China or anyone else. Iran can’t enrich uranium for peaceful purposes. Russia can’t have all of its conquests of the Russian territories in Ukraine. Ukraine won’t be demilitarized. Russia will be punished with more sanctions if Putin doesn’t agree to a ceasefire before he knows what the deal is. Ukraine can have de facto NATO membership with a mutual security clause with the West. China can’t continue succeeding economically more than America. Far from renouncing the Paul Wolfowitz Doctrine of American Hegemony, President Trump espouses it.
America is not as strong as Washington thinks it is. Actually, America is very weak, as is every Western country, not merely militarily, but also emotionally, spiritually. Generations of denunciation of Western Civilization by Western universities have created populations unsure of who they are. The damage universities have done to the belief system is extensive. In America’s coming wars with China, Iran, and Russia, what are the American youths dying for except Israel and the profits of the armaments industries?
Why should Americans die for Ukraine and Israel and the profits of armaments industries? No one asks or answers this question.
…
How can an American believe in himself when he is endlessly told that he is the source of all evil, all oppression? The indoctrination of white kids against their race begins in early education with critical race theory and aversive racism. Can Washington’s war propagandists create larger monsters out of Putin, Xi, and Iran than Western Universities have created out of white people?
So, here is the situation: On the one hand the neoconservatives and the America First Liberals tell Americans that they are ordained for rule. On the other hand the Democrats and the left tell Americans that they are hopeless racists who have to be displaced.
The Trump regime is creating a war scenario that America cannot win. Let’s just consider one of the many possible developments. Washington withdraws from the war in Ukraine, leaving it to Europe, but before Washington can engage China, Netanyahu sics his American puppet on Iran. Iran, unlike Putin, decides to fight. There go the American aircraft carriers in the region. There go the American bases in the Middle East. Iran’s Russian supplied air defense systems eliminates a large percentage of the American Air Force. America is handed a resounding military defeat. Out come the nuclear weapons.
Putin’s inability to make decisions is aiding and abetting Washington’s self destruction. Putin says that Russia stands alone against the West which is attempting to finish off Russia by breaking the Federation into a number of smaller countries, as Washington did to the Soviet Union, creating Ukraine for the first time in its history as an independent state, one now only 30 years old, a Washington creation.
Does Putin understand that the peace negotiations are a fraud intentionally designed to fail? What is actually going on is that America’s intended wars with Russia and China are being sequenced, because the US lacks the strength to take on all its chosen opponents simultaneously.
Washington’s war against Russia in Ukraine is being turned over to Europe under the pretense of a US/EU split. As neither Zelensky nor Putin can accept Trump’s terms, Trump can extract America from the conflict by walking away, leaving the continuation of the conflict to the EU. The American establishment will continue to make money from this conflict by selling the weapons to the Europeans and make more money by ramping up war with China.
The conditions Trump requires of Iran are so unrealistic as to indicate a total lack of seriousness. They amount to stripping Iran of all possibility of existence as a sovereign nation. Trumps’ announcement of US sanctions on every country that buys oil from Iran is mindless. Washington is trying to cut China off from oil like FDR did Japan, thus leading to the war that FDR wanted. Trump has either made a deal with the American establishment or his government has.
Look at the picture with a clear eye.
What and how is Russia endangering the West that justifies war to suppress the threat? Russia has threatened no Western country and has done nothing but to plead for a mutual security agreement with the West, which the West has refused.
What actions have Iran taken against the West? None. Iran is in the crosshairs because Iran supports Israel’s last remaining enemies, the small group of Houthis in small Yemen and the decapitated Hezbollah militia in small Lebanon. Washington eliminated for Israel at the cost of American lives and money Israel’s enemies in Iraq, Libya, and Syria. The Arab world is no more. America wiped it out for Israel.
As Norman Podhoretz made clear in the Jewish journal Commentary, the purpose of America’s 21st century’s wars in the Middle East is to overthrow Arab states in the way of Greater Israel. And Washington complied. Today the only remaining Arab state is Saudi Arabia, and not long ago an Israeli minister added half of Saudi Arabia to the map of Greater Israel. Israel now occupies part of Syria and says it is there to stay. This week Israel announced that the total conquest of Palestine was under way.
The first quarter of the 21st Century has been Israel’s. Israel’s American puppet has destroyed for Israel, at the expense of American lives and money, Israel’s Arab enemies. Now Netanyahu is going to sic his dumbshit puppets in Washington on Iran.
