Twilight of US Power

Pompeo and other US regime lackeys have been running around lately accusing China and Russia of all sorts of nonsense.

From accusing China of trying to ‘take over the world’ to Russia paying the Taliban to kill US soldiers, it’s been a non-stop bullshit-fest in Washington lately.

The UK has also joined in on the fun by issuing its own fact and evidence-free report about ‘Russian influence’ and meddling in Brexit, and even the Scottish independence referendum in 2014.

But interestingly, since Brexit benefits the UK establishment, Russia was let off-the-hook. However, Russia was said to have interfered in the Scottish referendum, since Scottish independence is not in the UK establishment’s interests.

It’s cherry-picking season in the UK.

Maybe this will be the standard operating procedure for the failing UK regimes from now on: blame all problems, and anything that happens that you don’t like, on Russia.

The UK is actually calling Russia nihilistic and paranoid; that Russia will do anything to anyone for political reasons, and that Russia has a zero-sum foreign policy where anything goes, as long as it benefits Russian interests.

This is a clear case of the UK projecting its own mentality and actions onto Russia.

Because for the last 30 years (at least), it is the US, UK that have been the most principal nihilists of all. These two have trampled over anyone and anything to stay on top. In Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yugoslavia, supporting Islamist fanatics in Syria just to undermine a leader they don’t like regardless of how much death and destruction it sows, killing Iranian scientists, engaging in sabotage, worldwide cyber-spying against both foes and vassals-all this is as nihilistic, paranoid and zero-sum as it gets.

Faced with its own internal troubles caused by Brexit, the coronavirus pandemic, and economic problems, the UK establishment is following the bad example of the US and has turned to scapegoat foreigners for its problems. But this has not worked for the US, and won’t work for the UK.

Brexit may have freed the UK from EU control. Now, the UK needs a YANKEXIT to free it from a much worse dependency.

The US is also broke, and in trouble. Record coronavirus cases and deaths, economic problems, skyrocketing unemployment, social unrest, serious divisions, governmental incompetence. All this is leading its inept regime to desperation and scapegoating. This is the strategy of losers.

The problem the US has, is that the only countries left with anything valuable are too strong to be attacked and robbed. The US cannot do it without suffering serious losses and defeat. This is what frustrates them. This is why Pompey has been running around making up nonsense about China. It is all driven by anger, jealousy, resentment, and frustration at having been bested by others.

If, and when the pandemic ends, the US will never again be like it was. It will be a weaker, and a more weary country. This is a turning point in its history, and it will lose more of its influence and power. The US is having problems financing its empire, and is trying to force others to finance it for them. But this won’t work.
 

The US regimes, past and present, have always tried to get a whole lot of something for nothing. This is their Modus Operandi. But people have had enough of being scammed by the evil US empire.

The stale-old propaganda of a ‘democratic and free US’ has worn thin.

For all the democracy promotion, the fact is that all political systems and governments, whether they are elected, self-appointed, or an oligarchy, have pretty much the same internal decision-making processes. Not even a dictator or strongman can just govern by themselves.

If there was so much of a difference between democracies and dictatorships, then there would be very little or no relations between democracies and authoritarian countries and leaders. Democracies would avoid dictatorships like the plague.

But the US does brisk business with 70% of the world’s dictatorships where there is not even a pretense of democracy. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Israel, are just a few of such countries where democracy, human rights, and the rule of law hardly apply, or not at all.

In the same breath, if all these accusations against Russia and China were true, then the US and its lackeys would immediately cut ties with these countries, recall their ambassadors, and would not talk with anyone in Russia and China. If Huawei was really using its equipment to spy on anyone, that equipment would be tossed out immediately, not in 2027-as is the plan currently.

All this just goes to show that the US and the west don’t like a successful competitor that does anything better, especially a non-western one.

The US regime is now at war with its own people. Federal troops are being rushed to cities to quell protests using violence. This will not end well.

We must look at the recent false accusations, lies and threats against Russia, China, Iran and others by the US regime in this context. It is all a dishonest and feeble attempt to distract the US populace from their real problems, and redirect their ire from the real scumbags who are responsible for their plight, and onto a convenient, foreign ‘other.’

Most people in the US don't really know what's going on. They tell themselves lies to feel better about living in a messed up country that is failing left and right. Instead of blaming other countries for their own incompetence, they should maybe learn about other countries and see what they're doing right and adopt some of their ideas? But no, US citizens rather stick their head in the sand, and pretend they're the best. It's all about pretending in the US.

Because as things stand, all the US regimes accusations of foreign meddling all come down to online English-language news articles published by Russian, Chinese and Iranian media outlets that criticize US policies and actions, and air out the USA’s dirty laundry in public. This undermines US propaganda. And that’s what irks the US so much, not any election interference or spying.

As for all the protests, the population of the US cannot count on the US constitution for legal protection. The rights that it guarantees are open to interpretation by the establishment. Any ‘right’ can be nullified under one pretext or another, no matter how flimsy and contradictory.

That’s how the protesters in the US today are being lumped in with violent mobs and labeled as extremists. Once this is done, all rights disappear.

In 1861, a bunch of US citizens wanted to secede from the union because they felt their property rights were being challenged and threatened. But they quickly found out that the right to secede was only on-paper, and was not allowed.

The twilight of the US is here.

The recent behavior of the US regimes is proof that this is so. Strong, confident nations sure of themselves and their future don't act in such unhinged, dishonest, reckless and self-destructive ways.

Welcome to the end, USA!

I Hate My Neighbor!

I hate my neighbor. He’s an asshole.

My reasons for hating him are superficial, but who cares, right? They’re my reasons, and I don't care if you agree with them or not!


Well, I’m going to get him back!

I’m going to block his garage so he can’t drive anywhere. I will place rocks, blocks, and razor wire in his driveway to prevent him from leaving.

I will use sabotage to make his life miserable. I will sneak into his yard at night to cut and tear out his TV and electrical wiring and components. I will spill noxious substances on his house and destroy his patio furniture.

I will cut his car tires, stick potatoes up the exhaust, and spray brake fluid all over his cars.

I will find out where he lives and tell his boss a bunch of lies so my neighbor loses his job and livelihood.

I will post nasty, horrible lies about him on facebook, You Tube, and other social media about him.

I will tell everyone that I talk to lies about my neighbor so they hate him.

I also make an anonymous phone call to his bank and tell them that my neighbor is involved in illegal activities so that his accounts get flagged and blocked.

I will also call the police and accuse him of all sorts of stuff to keep him busy. I will also have others call the police to do the same. The more people I have backing up my lies, the more effective  my strategy to mess up the life of my neighbor will be.

I will even vandalize my own home and blame it on him.

I will convince my other neighbors to join in. I will bribe them to do so, and threaten those who are hesitant until they agree to go along with me.

I will turn the entire neighborhood, and town, against my rotten neighbor and make his life miserable.

I will attend town council meetings and post notices all over town to demonize him and the horrible things he is doing to me, and my neighbors.

If he tries to retaliate, or defend himself in any way, I will accuse him of terrorism and attempted murder. I will drag him through the courts and have all other neighbors label him a security threat and a criminal.

I will sue him, and garnish his wages so that he goes broke and can’t take care of himself.

I will keep this up until he does what I want.

If he still refuses, I will start messing with his friends and family members. I will do the same things to them!

 

The above text is a parable about what the US is doing to Iran.

Iran is the neighbor, and US is the I.

Upside-Down History

Faced with serious failures and embarrassments within their own midst, the US establishment has been busy coming up with new lies and accusations against others to escape culpability and scrutiny.

Recently, it has been turning history upside-down by accusing Russia of paying money to the Taliban to kill US forces. It has also been trying to accuse Russian President Vladimir Putin of ‘rehabilitating’ the image of Joseph Stalin.

It is a pathetic and ignorant attempt to superimpose the image of Stalinist Russia onto Russia today. This is done to paint Russia as evil, and justify acts of sedition, and justify foreign interference and regime change.

The exposure of US failures and its own distasteful past, as well as Russia’s recent constitutional referendum which saw a US-imposed constitution annulled and replaced by an all-Russian version, free of foreign-imposed limitations, certainly could have something to do with these recent false accusations.

Both these absurd claims are done from spite and desperation.

Since May, the US has been racked with protests which have shown the ugly face of US society, and its bloody and abhorrent history.

Numerous monuments to slave traders, imperialists, colonizers and other persons of dubious merit have been toppled. This has exposed those so-called ‘heroes’ for what they really were, and undermined a sacrosanct niche of the US propaganda myth. People all over the world are noticing and asking questions.

Faced with embarrassment, the desperate US establishment is countering with lies and false accusations against others.

The evidence-free accusation that Russia is paying the Taliban to kill US soldiers rings particularly hollow and hypocritical when one takes into account the sordid history of the US in backing the Taliban movement since the late 1970s.


Ronald Reagan meeting with the Afghan Taliban in the White House

It was the US, together with its Pakistani, Saudi, Israeli, and assorted European buddies that supported, armed, trained, encouraged and PAID the Afghan Mujahideen - who later made up the nucleus of the Taliban and Al Qaeda – to kill Soviet troops in the 1980s.

It was the US and its buddies who, after the Soviets withdrew, allowed the Taliban to fester and gain strength.

It was the US who gave billions of dollars in 'aid' to the Pakistani ISI to fight terrorism, but the money ended up supporting the Taliban and pro-Taliban sympathizers in Pakistani intelligence and the military.
 

It was the US that invaded Afghanistan in 2001 and put its troops in harm’s way. 

It is the US that insists on keeping them there, making them a daily target.

No. It wasn’t the Russians who paid the Taliban to kill US troops.

It was the US who paid the Taliban to kill US troops, and still does! And no one deserves this blame more than the US itself!

As for accusing Russia and Putin of rehabilitating Stalin, read this article, especially the last paragraph:

So, what is Russia’s situation today? Well, NATO has expanded its membership to include every former member state of the Warsaw Pact, not to mention former republics of the USSR, promised membership to Ukraine and Georgia, and conducted almost daily military exercises in the Baltic and Black Seas. The United States has walked away from the Anti-Ballistic Missiles, Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces and Open Skies treaties. And there is a constant barrage of anti-Russian propaganda emanating from many Western capitals. With all that in mind, perhaps it isn’t surprising that Russians, while they certainly don’t want Stalin back, look with admiration and respect upon a leader who protected them from foreign aggressors.1

So, yes. Not only is the US ultimately responsible for the Taliban killing US soldiers in Afghanistan, but because of its anti-Russian antics the US is also responsible for any sympathy for Stalin within Russia today.

The US has been turning history, reality and facts upside down for years. It has also been projecting its own sins and crimes onto others.

The US has been the best agent of its own destruction.

But turning history upside-down is not going to exonerate anyone in the US regime, past and present.

The jig is up. The US will now have to answer for its historical faults and lies, and it is being exposed by its own public.

And the more lies it pushes, the more it will be hated.
