If you provoke the entire world, something may happen

Andre Vltchek

The United States believes that it is so invincible, exceptional and so frightening that no one would ever dare to protest, let alone defend its people against constant humiliation, economic embargos and military threats.

It used to be like this for quite some time. In the past, the West used to bully the world before and after each well-planned assault. Also, well-crafted propaganda used to be applied.

It was declared that things are done ‘legally’ and rationally. There were certain stages to colonialist and imperialist attacks: “define your goals”, “identify your victim”, “plan”, “brainwash your own citizens and people all over the world”, and then, only then, “bomb some unfortunate country back to the stone ages”.

Now, things are slightly different. “The leader of the free world” wakes up in the middle of the night, and he tweets. What comes from his computer, tablet or phone, (or whatever he uses), is spontaneous, unpolished and incredibly dangerous. Similar in substance to what made him wake up in the middle of the night, in a first place.

He does not seem to plan; he shoots off from the hip. Today, as I am writing this essay, he has declared that he has “five strategies for Venezuela”. Go figure. Bravo!

Earlier, as he was about to land outside London, he embarked on insulting the Mayor of the British capital, calling him names. A bit like we used to do to each other, when we were five years old, in the neighborhood playground.

He has been regularly offending Mexico, and of course Iran, China and Russia.

He basically tells the leader of the most populous nation on earth – China – to “be there”, at the G20 Summit, or else.

Whenever he and his lieutenants are in the mood, they get busy antagonizing everyone: Cuba and Nicaragua, DPRK and Venezuela, Bolivia and Syria.

Of course, the main “culprits” are always the ‘biggest bad boys’, Russia and China.

Anyone, at any time, could easily land on the proverbial hit list of President Trump, and hawks of his United States of A. It could be India (which, during ‘good submissive times’ is called by the West the “biggest democracy”, or perhaps Turkey (militarily the second mightiest NATO country). The world had been converted into an entity which appears to be run by a bloodthirsty and unpredictable dictatorship. The world is an entity where everyone is terrified of being purged, imprisoned, starved to death, or directly attacked, even liquidated.

It was always like this, at least in the modern history of the planet. Colonialism, neo-colonialism, imperialism: they have many different faces but one common root. Root that has been often hidden deep under the surface.

But this time it is all in the open, raw and brutally honest.

*

Both George W. Bush and Donald Trump have one thing in common: they are honest.

Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama were both ‘suave’ presidents. They were loved in Europe, as they knew how to speak politely, how to dine elegantly, and how to commit mass murder in a ‘rational, righteous way’; ‘old-fashioned, European-style’.

The brutal, vulgar ways of W. Bush and Donald Trump, have been consistently shocking all those individuals who are pleased when things are done ‘stylishly’ and ‘politically correctly’; be it a coup or the starvation to death of millions through embargos. Or be it invasions or ‘smart’ bombing (practically, ‘smart’ meaning very far from the inquisitive eyes).

But it is not only the ‘offended sensibilities’ of predominantly European population, that matter.

The danger is that someone might take Donald Trump seriously, and respond accordingly.

In the past, verbal insults similar to those unleashed now by the US President, could easily have led to a war, or at least to the breaking up of diplomatic relationships.

And now?

In case Westerners have not realized it, yet – people all over the world are indignant. I talk to Libyans, Afghans, Iraqis, Venezuelans, Cubans, Iranians: they hate what comes from Washington; hate it with passion. They know that what is being done to them is terrorism, thuggery. But for now, they do not know how to defend themselves. Not yet, but they are thinking.

The entire world now resembles a brutal ghetto, or a slum, where a heavily armed gang controls the streets, and in fact every corner and alley.

At least in the past, subjugated people were able to hide behind decorative words and ideological pirouettes. They were able to ‘save their face’. They were sodomized in the name of ‘freedom’, ‘democracy’ and ‘human rights’. Now, a horrible reality is flying directly into all directions: “You will do as you are told!” “It is us who will decide.” “Obey, because we said so”. Entire proud nations are being reduced into states of slaves or even worse – lap dogs.

*

As everyone is well aware, even lackeys and slaves often hold grudges. And abused dogs can bite.

Throughout history, slaves rebelled. True heroes came from rebellious and enslaved nations.

This, what we have now on our planet, is not good, not a healthy situation.

The more countries that are being intimidated, the higher the chances are that somewhere, soon, things will let go; collapse.

Only terrible fear, so far, assures that if a Syrian or a Libyan or an Afghan city is leveled to the ground, there is no real retaliation: urban areas in the USA stay intact.

Only incredible patience of the Russian or Chinese leaders guarantees that, so far, even as their economies are being battered by ridiculous sanctions, the two powerful nations do not retaliate and ruin the US financial system (which is only a paper tiger).

Trump dares. He tortures and humiliates more than half of the world, then looks straight ahead and laughs: “So what are you going to do now?”

So far, the world is doing nothing.

Even the proud and mighty Iran is not ‘crossing the line’. As millions of its people are suffering because of insane sanctions, the Iranian navy is not yet engaging the US battleships that are sailing very near its shores.

Even as more and more US bases are being built right next to both Russia and China’s borders, so far there are no substantial military bases being erected by Moscow or Beijing in places such as Nicaragua, Cuba or Venezuela.

*

All this may change, soon.

And the so much dreaded (by Washington) “domino effect” may actually take place.

Non-Western leaders have also their ‘bad days’ and terrible nights. They also wake up in the middle of the night, and think, want to communicate and to act.

Imagine an Iranian leader, waking up at 2AM, and suddenly feeling overwhelmed by wrath, because Iranian men, women and children are suffering, for no reason, as a result of the perverse sadism being regurgitated by the West. What if he Tweets an insult, too? What if he just orders, on a spur of the moment, to have all those obsolete US aircraft carriers and destroyers that are floating in the vicinity, be sunk? Iran can do it: everyone knows that it can! Technically, militarily, it is easy: those ships are just sitting ducks.

Then what? Will Washington nuke Iran?

Someone may say: The West is killing millions every year, anyway. Better to fight it, in order to stop it, once and for all. Others may join. And then, then what? Will Trump give orders to kill tens of millions, just to maintain control over the world?

What if the US navy vessels bump into a Russian or a Chinese ship, as they almost did in the South China Sea, recently? What if a Russian or Chinese ship sinks, dozens of sailors die. And there is a retaliation? Then what?

What if Syria has enough and begins shooting down Israeli military jets that are bombing it, and attacking North American and European ‘special forces’ that are still located, illegally, on its territory?

The US is engaged all over the world. France and the UK, too. And if you talk to the people in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, you very soon realize what the real feelings towards Washington are!

If you provoke the entire world, something very terrible may happen!

Now, there is an entire coalition of powerful nations, ready to defend themselves, and also defend each other. Militarily, economically, and ideologically.

The world is not a slave of the West, or the United States. It is not a latrine.

This is the new world. Considering the horrors that were spread by the West, for many long years and centuries, Asia, Africa, “Latin America”, the Middle East and Oceania, are unbelievably patient and forgiving. But the USA and Europe should not take this tolerance for granted. They should not provoke its former and present victims.

Now, we (the people from the previously ruined part of the world) are beginning to speak up: about what is being done to us – to China and Russia, to South America and Africa, and the Middle East. With awareness comes courage. With courage comes pride.

Do not misinterpret our kindness. It is not a weakness. Not anymore. Think twice before you speak (or Tweet). Think a thousand times, before you act!

The United States of America has already provoked the wrong guy back before Bear Stearns was murdered so that Lehman Brothers would fall as it did. Controlled Demolition works wonders in Finance too post-911 Controlled Demolition of WTC 1, 2, & Building 7.

08 ushered in the controlled demolition of the Western Banking empire & the wholesale demise of Fractional Reserve Banking & Corporate America. Soon America will be a necropolis of dead cities & towns that hold only memories instead of people.

Wall Street ethos is ‘kill or be killed’ whereby America itself was killed in 08 but somehow Trump failed to read the Financial Times and likely still thinks that main street USA is as financially illiterate as he undoubtedly is.

Well, we have clearly reached the stage of asking the right questions at last.
I never thought of YouTube as the friend of the educated, or the resource of scholars, but if Trump and his lunatic government ever accidentally hit upon YouTube, they can hardly fail to be struck by how much of its readership has really, really, really had enough of American exceptionalism, hubris and bullying, as well as U.S. readiness to torch the whole world and utterly ignore its own population in the service of Israel’s greed.

Couldn’t agree with you more. The trillions the United States has spent on maintaining the Empire while whole regions are literally screwed, with the infrastructure collapsing; West Virginia, Camden NJ, Philadelphia, rural areas in states like Alabama and Arkansas, Flint Michigan, etc etc. How many homeless are there now? I had customers who visited Los Angeles recently, and they were dumbfounded at the numbers of homeless they spotted there. The whole ethos of ‘I’ve got mine, I’m all right Jack’ – the whole social darwinian nature of Neoliberalism, with the psychopaths at the top raking it in….

I saw this comment recently and it seems fitting…..Because America is where the empire has centralized most of its military firepower and billionaires, Americans are the most propagandized people on earth. There are thousands of people whose whole entire job is to convince Americans that it is good and desirable to keep trillions of dollars in military hardware moving around the planet and killing complete strangers who pose no threat to any American.

True, and also immensely sad and tragic coz I would lay money that a lot of those being crushed by Neoliberalism, those in Walmart or working in a Diner in Huntsville AL, or a janitor in Tulsa, etc are those who believe the ‘american dream’ the most, and all the jingoism that goes with it, even while they’re living paycheck to paycheck, and can barely pay their utilities bill.

Homeless – I think the official figure is 500,000. Which means nothing, except it’s more than 500,000.

According to “official figures” there are 2,000 rough sleepers in the UK. I’ve seen more than that on a trip into town.

‘official figures’ (cough) mean nothing on anything. As I’ve mentioned, sell The Big Issue mag, tho am lucky enough to have a roof over my head and quite a lot of regular customers (for now). All over this city, even in the outer suburbs, more people begging, more people sleeping in parks, even in ‘middle class’ suburbs where I sell, more empty shops and a myriad of others having ‘closing down sales’, its sort of like a slow motion implosion, aye. I also see a lot of very deluded people who are oblivious to the approaching shitstorm.

Yes, yes, Andre: the Western militarised global economic model is broken …so you keep telling us. And the Eastern sustainable trade-based global economic model is vastly superior …so you keep either implying or telling us. But you are not the only one to notice.

A broken ‘Western’ weaponised economic model it is: global militarised imperialism has led to a near global pushback …and rightly so. And the shift to an ‘Eastern’ financialised global trade in goods and services; based on the latest AI-fintech infrastructure and the multilateral embrace of technological advancement – egalitarianly and humanitarianly globally implemented (the ‘Eurasian Information Infrastructure’; CPEC; BRICS=>BRICS+=>BRICS++) …to pull everyone out poverty; whilst effecting deep decarbonisation of the global economy …implementing the UN’s SDG Agenda 2030 low carbon ‘sustainable growth’ model …”in the spirit of harmonious coexistence between people and nature” (the Tianxia ‘Ecological Civilisation’) …etc, etc, etc …

What you won’t say (because perhaps you do not know?): and the world is slow to recognise …is that it is the same global economic model – “Globalisation 4.0: Shaping a Global Architecture in the Age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution” …and its main shadow architects are the ultracapitalist libertarian fascists and neo-Nazi supremacists that don’t give a flying fuck about humanitarianism or environmentalism …they just want to convince enough people that they do for the sole purpose of either complacency or consent.

When Koch and Soros team up to set up an institution for ‘responsible statecraft’ – to end the imperialism they have been funding for decades …alarm bells start ringing. If they set up an institute for a ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution ‘Green New Deal” people would realise straight away what they were up to …so they mobilise the children to do it …the Sunrise Movement; the Climate Strikers; and for the adults …XR Rebellion.

You need a good advertorial narrative if you want to convince the world to go into SDG Agenda 2030 deep decarbonisation ‘climate emergency’ mode. How about the fairy tale of a little girl who made her own way to Davos; camped out in sub-zero conditions; so committed was she to tell the global ruling class to act as though the “house was on fire”. And the duly chastised globalists all agreed, and decided to change their wicked ways …”Once upon a time, in NeverNever Land …”

And the theme this year at Davos? …“Globalisation 4.0: Shaping a Global Architecture in the Age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution”.

This has been gestating for decades. American ‘Western’ globalisation (‘First’ and ‘Second’ Wave globalisation) has been rejected; the ’emerging market economies’ (EMEs; BRIC; BRICS=>BRICS+ model) has stalled (‘Third’ Wave globalisation); welcome to the new epochal Fourth Wave of greenwashed neoliberalism …’Globalisation 4.0′.

Well, not new, actually. It has been around in the shadows for at least 40 years. It’s gestation is in part the answer to the question: “What did Gorbachev do next?” …after he intentionally (or so it increasingly looks) collapsed the Former Soviet Union.

So how do I know this, and why should you trust what I am saying? And what’s with all the acronyms? I read the policy papers the WEF and globalist think-tanks put out. They are not shy about policies often brain-stormed multi-decades in advance …and gestated for the right moment to implement.

So why now? Why is Trump suddenly the anti-globalisation pariah and VVP and Xi the ‘Eastern’; ‘Eurasian Sovereigntist’; ‘Eurasian Information Infrastructure’; Eurasian Integration (into the EAEU/BRI/CPEC ‘supercontinent’) world leaders in technocracy and globalisation? Because capitalism is imploding and needs to reproduce and reinvent itself. Welcome to the Fourth Industrial Revolution and contingent march of an Eastern technocracy rising …character masked as an Ecological Civilisation.

And for the West: the kids and millennials (on the cusp of being the next biggest voting class as us ‘Baby Boomers’ die out …). And in Africa …the kids. And in South America …the kids. Once you read the policy: you can see its global implementation …for the kids.

One man you should definitely follow is Lord Jim ‘BRIC’ O’Neill – Chairman of Chatham House. Who has recently been saying things like: “the global economy is “definitely” slowing down. While this alone might not be indicative of a recession, he says a global shock of some sort could elevate the risk of an economic contraction. Particularly if something went “really, really badly wrong in China.”

https://www.cnbc.com/video/2019/06/07/jim-oneill-on-the-world-economy.html

What could prevent that is another wave of financialised expansion: assuming ‘green’ credentials for the sake of humanity and the environment …for the kids. Allied to disarming the broken Western militarised global economic model …just as he predicted in 2001:

”In order globalisation to advance, it had to be accepted by more people …but not by imposing the dominant American social and philosophical beliefs and structures …”

There has been a techtonic shift in the globalisation model. A key date was SPIEF 2019. Globalisation is now Eastern and green, sustainable, and humanitarian. The globalists are doing it for the kids: because they care that much. They did it because Greta showed them the error of their ways …”Once upon a time, in NeverNever Land …”

It’s Chuck Mangione & Esther Satterfield in the “Land of Make Believe” all over again, coz’ the it’s easy to distract the kids today, from what has really been causing all the climate change and the reality of Geo-engineering of the weather for corporate & military strategic gain & pain, with the derivative fund investments on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange …

When the models & programming for Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. Weather Risk Management** with Intel Inside & their Galway based Harmony & HarmoniEPS programmers are all so compartmentalised, away from the Hirlam & Aladin Consortium & HAC’s HARP programme as opposed to the other HAARP programmers of old, all of whom feed the British Met. & French Météo offices, with a short term near weather prognosis, tuned to hectometres, with a focus on the severe weather they have been creating secretly, outside the aforementioned parameters and with zero consideration & focus on the Jet Streams or Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancements like STEVE the purple streaker, the kids could be excused for being confused, coz’ even their parents don’t ‘get it’ and still haven’t connected the dots and followed the chains of connectivity at contractual levels & promises of services, in denial of any legal liability … !

In fact the liability has become so huge on weather modification programmes that my searches for A.E.R. inc. Weather Risk Assessment & services offered to governments are becoming more & more relegated to the realms of more increasingly ‘difficult to find’ , daily and Aer Lingus is now top of the list, despite quite specific full stops after each capital letter typed & inc. incorporated … riddle me that !

** “Atmospheric and Environmental Research scientists and engineers help governments and businesses solve the world’s biggest climate issues. We prepare agencies like NOAA, NASA and the Department of Defense, along with large insurance, investment and energy companies to anticipate, manage, react to and profit from weather and climate related risk.”

Do they fuck … ? Noses to grindstones and should the kids look up, make sure the first thing they see is R.Kelly and MJ’s Neverland Hollywood news, not Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell’s sealed indictments opened in NYC this week, coz’ there’s a full scale media blackout going down from our Zionist Media ‘friends’, that relates to all the old Eastern Block connectivity to organised crime bosses throughout Western Societal & Political History … Bunga Bunga Berlusconi is back & Ghislaine’s been arrested, but there’s a total MSM blackout.

“Maxwell’s criminal activities began early in his career, culminating when the collapse of the Eastern Bloc set the stage for a feeding frenzy of fraud, deceit and theft of state assets. KGB and other Eastern Bloc intelligence agents—with whom Maxwell already had established contacts—moved into the business world following the breakup of the Soviet empire, and became the sharks that devoured the assets of state resources for their own ends. The underworld flourished, and Maxwell was there to help himself to a hefty 15 to 20 percent cut as he laundered their money through Bulgaria and Western banks. Soon, Maxwell had links to criminals who dealt in illegal arms, prostitution, money laundering, drugs, and contract killings—all of whom used Maxwell to launder their profits.
Probably the most audacious illegal business project with which Maxwell involved himself was Bulgaria’s Neva network. The concept was simple: plunder Western technology through secret agents, produce the same technology in Eastern Bloc nations, particularly Bulgaria, then sell the goods to the Eastern markets. Maxwell set up the companies to carry out the work, then laundered the profits through his network of banks. At its inception, Maxwell did not envision that Neva would grow into one of the most powerful crime syndicates in the world, embracing the Russian mafia, the crime families of Bulgaria, as well as those in New York, Hong Kong and Japan. All the companies Maxwell formed eventually would come under one name—Multi-Group—which controlled a significant percentage of global profits from gas, telecommunications, oil, gambling, and money laundering”

Now the Multigroup bosses of today like Iliya Pavlov and the one time MEP Delyan Peevski for the BG Freedom & Rights party (DPC), who should have been arrested by Interpol by now, whilst investigating our PM Borisov & CIA Pawn Tsvetanov of BG S.S. and the CEZ electricity scammers of Czech Origins, is just such a tangled web of continuous complex Mainstream Media deceit of old, including Murdoch & Maxwell &&& it gets tiring recalling all the RAMifications and my random active memory is exhausted from storing all the Omissions of the EU & Interpol & the MSM and STEVE & NASA’s role in all this, with Intel inside at every step i take, phew, like you said “Once upon a time in NeverNever land in the land of make believe’ that AOC & the GND & Greta are way better than the ole’ simple CND… now armed with a purple streaker, a Three Thousand Degrees Hot Gas cloud above us, thrown in casually by the Guardian, has nobody noticed the radical increase in Extreme Severe Weather change or the fact that that 15 mile wide Cloud travelling at 13,420 MPH and 3,000º C hotter than the air that surrounds it at 186 miles above us, could actually be having an effect on our climate … (tim yawns, bigly) … nothing seems to stick and nothing is binding, legally!

Night Night BigB & sweet dreams … for our kids, if nothing else.

”In order globalisation to advance, it had to be accepted by more people …but not by imposing the dominant American social and philosophical beliefs and structures …”

But is this possible? It would be surprising if some of the movers and shakers of the global system are getting a little uncomfortable with the way things are going. Can the whole thing be slammed into reverse without a complete disintegration? And what will emerge? Well that is anybody’s guess. What is certain is that we are headed for the biggest crack-up in this history of mankind. It seems doubtful to me that the ruling elites have either the brains or imagination to bring about fundamental changes in their system. They are like the Bourbons, ‘learned nothing, forgotten nothing.’ As Lenin once put it:

”It goes without saying that if capitalism could develop agriculture, which today is lagging terribly behind industry, if it could raise living standards of the masses, who in spite of amazing technical progress, are everywhere half-starved and poverty stricken, there could be no question of a surplus capital. This ‘argument’ is very often advanced by the petty bourgeois critics of capitalism. But if capitalism did these things it would not be capitalism.

”Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism.

Lenin was right. Yes, there have been ‘amazing technical progress, in technology and productivity, BUT the trend is toward an increasing polarization of wealth and poverty. The notion that this can be reversed by enlightened elites is delusional since their existence is predicated on the continuation of the system as it currently exists.

We shall see.

Fully agree Francis, and like you, and most commenters here and elsewhere, I see big black clouds looming on the horizon. I’m not very literate on economic terminology, but my gut feeling is we are heading for a massive meltdown that will make 2008 look like a sunday school picnic. No one will escape the consequences of it.

Is it possible for capitalism to advance as per Lord Jim’s quote: no. The American elitist Enlightenment philosophy is the logic of globalisation. Not among entire populations: but among the ruling classes. Russia is not neoliberal: but institutionally and constitutionally it is at an elite level. Russian economists were either trained in the West, or at home, by the ‘Harvard Boys’. PCR and Michael Hudson have written plenty about this – they consider neoliberalism America’s ‘Fifth Column’:

https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2018/05/25/americas-fifth-column-will-destroy-russia/

Just as Russian elites are privately educated in London and Oxbridge – so are China’s in Harvard and the Ivy League hall’s of cognitive elitism. It’s anecdotal, but when David Harvey and Michael Hudson were in Beijing for a an International Marxism conference – they were regaled by students asking “When can we have a free market”?

So with cognitive elitism globally. It is privately educated, academically apartheid and quasi-exclusionary. It may appear to be “open to all” (meritocratic): but you have to have the right intelligence quotient (cognitive elitism). As Jordan Peterson is always banging on about: intelligence is the dominant of the ‘Big Five’ (psychological profiling) that determines success in the corporate business model.

It can be inferred strongly from this that the corporate business model is an intensifier and extremiser of cognitive elitism. It is an intellectual socio-Darwinian and Skinnerian ‘reward and punishment’ market of the optimisation of individuation (‘me, me’) and objectivism (focused ‘task-and-goal’ quarterly shareholder economic logic) …(‘me, me – for short-term profit’.) With a winner takes almost all monopoly moral absolutisation (post-colonial imperialism and globalisations 1.0-3.0).

The Anglo-American Enlightenment philosophy – epitomised as Randian Objectivism; and mathematicised formalised logical posivitism – is the philosophy of globalisation. It’s individuated economic rational is neo-Austrian NCE (as instigated from the Lipmann Colloqium; and gestated by the Mount Pelerin Society).

You won’t get very far in the trans-national corporate model with a subjectivised idealism and relativist notions of truth. That’s for the plebs. Or is it? Globalisation: having enriched and empowered the most intellectual, skillful, and psychopathic manipulators of all time is not about to change its core business model of exponential capital accumulation for the ruling cognitive elitists (a form of neo-Platonic combined ‘noocracy’ and plutocracy). Or will it?

The shadow sovereign ‘noocrats’ don’t wait around for social change and respond to it: they create the change they want us to make …and they do it by convincing us that we are leading the change from a grassroots level. Because we led the change: we pre-consent to the change. It is a circular rationale where the social leaders are in fact the led (try to introduce a true anti-capitalist ethos and see how far it gets?)

Gone are the days when authentic grassroots social movements emerge – like the Civil Rights, Feminist, and Anti-Apartheid movements – before being recuperated. Now: social change is recuperated and controlled BEFORE it emerges. Consent and behaviour change are manufactured and policy is ‘front-run’ (policy determines reality and not vice-versa). This is the essence of the Baudillardian “4th Order Simulacra” …”the map precedes the territory”.

This is not just philosophy: Cenk Uygur’s (he’s since resigned) Justice Democrats PAC and ‘Brand New Congress’ make a perfect case study. If you don’t like the old ossified ‘Clintonian’ democrats: replace them with a bunch of young people …mobilise ‘grassroots’ support years in advance – et voila …authentic grassroots congressional candidates that are leading social change – like AOC, Ro Khanna and Ilal Omar. Ones that you selected, own and control.

Capitalism is not monolithic and unresponsive to change: it is self-reproductive by creating the its own schedules of change. This is where study of the WEF comes in handy. They are shit scared of us: they are paranoically shit scared of us. Hence the trillions in bottomless budgets – not to just monitor, but to modify our consciousness of consent …in advance.

The cognitive elitist ‘noocrats’ are shit scared of populism, nationalism, and demagoguery …of populous leadership they cannot necessarily control. So they do change over time: by leading the reproductive change. The violence of the ‘American’ imperialist system was too brutal …it was really staring to piss people off, unsurprisingly. And austerity was likewise a brutal violence on the squeezed middle classes whose consent they need to reproduce. As was the trail of pelagic plastic and environmental destruction that neoliberalisms 1.0-3.0 left in their trail. And so the new greenwashed, humanitarian, environmental, sustainable, and technological capitalism emerges from a multi-decadal larval gestation – the ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ and ‘Green New Deal’ for Nature is neoliberalism 4.0.

Cynically, neoliberalism has not changed – it has changed us …by perception management, applied psychological, and behaviour modification means …pre-determining the very consciousness it needs for consent …then manufacturing it from the astroturfed grassroots.

As far as the masses concerned: this is the change they have been campaiging for decades for. Finally, the ruling classes have taken climate change seriously – after decades of failed protocols and COP out after COP out (COP 24 in Katowice is where they ‘copped in’).

Now, we can all relax: carry on capitalism; look forward to a return to full employment – building the ‘new climate economy’ that will “enrich us all”; watch the economy progress technologically and prosper socio-economically – ending austerity; whilst unimpeding consumer consumption or constraining the freedoms of commodified lifestyle habits; effecting deep decarbonisation, transitioning to renewables, and reaching clean carbon ‘net zero’ natural harmonisation and climactic equilibrium …all without any extra effort or change from us.

Except the behavioural change that has already occurred in the capitalisation of consciousness …that can be further manipulated by ‘extend and pretend’ pseudo-green advertorial narratives. Ones that soften the perception of the objectivist libertarian fascism – Anglo-American Enlightenment ‘noocratic’ plutocracy – at the zenith of capitalist accumulation …green or not green is a character masking advertorial consumer consent narrative construction. The dissent to which seems to be non-existent …which shows what a good job they have done over the years.

It is globalised cognitive elitist ‘Americanism’ or globalised cognitive elite ‘Americanism’ …with or without the big guns. The ruling elites are not monolithic: there are those who cling to the more vicious and rapacious former globalisations (hence, Trump becoming the ‘anti-globalist’ pariah). But ‘Globalisation 4.0’ is arguably MORE dangerous for its apparent switch from violent conquest to ‘trade-based’ environmentalism and humanitarianism.

It’s the same model of primitive and ‘accumulation by dispossession’ with a sovereigntist and humanitarian narrative consent ethic (which might arguably be called ‘Duginism’?). But there are hundreds of think-tanks. Chatham House and Katehon and the Valdai Club and the WEF and …there is a remarkable consistency of thought. Not exactly the same, but very similar in ethos …’Americanist’ objectivism shorn of the outward expressions of violence. Globalisation with humanist, environmentalist, and sovereigntist regionalised characteristics …Meh!

Empirical reality has come home to roost and there is nothing the so-called ‘globalists’ can do about it because the ‘globalists’ lost complete control over the now defunct global economy as they got drunk on the souls of the poor and fell asleep at the wheel of global Finance to whereby the global economy ran off the rails like a runaway freight train with no engineer to apply the breaks.

The usual troll strategy is to pinpoint some type of human rights issue – true or otherwise – in a target country as part of the build-up to a regime change project. Note that the belligerent power has absolutely no interest whatsoever regarding human rights in the target country; this is simply a pretext. The target country having committed the grievous and unspeakable sin of not being told what to do by the Anglo-Zionist empire should now be brought to its knees by military and non-military means ( sanctions, cyber-war and so forth). And so the non-stop hysteria listing the so-called human rights abuses goes into overdrive with an army of paid propagandists enlisted for this purpose.

Of course the belligerent power is assumed to be as pure as the driven snow and its sole intention is to put the world to rights. This is taken as axiomatic by the imperial power and its paid apologists. But no-one who is capable of honesty and integrity can swallow this.

Let’s just take the colonial settler states.

When Columbus landed in the western hemisphere there were probably 80 to 100 million people with advanced civilization – forward the clock of history and 95% of this population had gone. In what is now the territory of the United States there were 10 million of so Native Americans, but by according to the 1900 census there were 200,000 left. Then there was the little matter of black slavery where boatloads of black people were packed into ships which left Liverpool and Bristol taking their cargoes to the New World. Many died on the journey and were simply tipped over the side as shark meat; the rest became plantation slaves. That was just the internal massacre. But the US, having got the taste, developed a penchant for massacring foreigners also, particularly in south east asia and the middle east. The exact figures will never be known but we can rest assured that there will be more to come.

The Anglo-Saxon offshoots of England (including Israel) the US, Canada, Australia didn’t just rule the natives, they eliminated them. They took over their land and settlements and virtually exterminated them in most cases. We don’t think about them – did it really happen? We don’t ask about what happened to these unpeople in the past. We deny it in fact.

I am always surprised, shocked even, at the level of hypocrisy exhibited by these defenders of ‘freedom’ ‘democracy’ and ‘human rights.’ It takes a special type of intellectual and emotional agility (doublethink) to achieve this state of mind and a complete absence of human empathy.

I would say absence of subhuman empathy because the Brutish for the most part thought blacks were not human. If you think that is an exaggeration, see the entry under ‘Negro’ in the very mainstream Encyclopedia Brittanica ninth edition 1888 approx. and this was only part of a general theme. Having inaugurated biological warfare in Canada by purposely giving smallpox to the Indians, they invented concentration camps in the Boer war and succeeded in causing the deaths of 30k women and children.
Their descendants in the US had no problem with Native American genocide, as it made it easier for them to break their land treaties, not a single one of which they kept anyway.

The racist behaviour was not just limited to the British, look at the behaviour of Belgium in the Congo, Italy in Ethiopia, France in Northern Africa, the Dutch in South Africa.
In the modern era, the US has been at war for 80 years, has military bases in around 70 countries and is constantly employing regime change to maintain hegemony in various regions.
In the 2016 US election, 55.7% turned out to vote. 62,984,828 people voted for Trump, 3 million more voted for Clinton.
110 million people decided not to vote at all.

That’s very true. Tiny Belgium was one of the worst genociders. They turned the whole of Central Africa into a charnel house. From 1890-1910 in the first years of colonial rule, 10 million were slaughtered, half the population. This outmatches by far conventional accounts of the 1940s “holocaust,” though of course the victims there were “white”, so naturally they are more important and there are holocaust museums on every street corner and every other day is a holocaust memorial day, while you don’t see very many Spielberg epics about the Congo Holocaust. Italy butchered three quarters of a million in Libya in the 1920s, half the small population there. Well over 100 million native Americans were deliberately exterminated by half a dozen European countries. France had a policy of genocide in Algeria. Germany had extermination policies in East and South West Africa. The Dutch and the Portuguese rampaged across Asia committing genocides in India and Indonesia. A uniformly grin catalogue of slaughter, enslavement and racism over 500 years.

Thanks for the election figures. I thought it was slightly higher, with 120 million, 48%, not bothering to vote.

The Liberal Party of CANADA led Trudeau administration has been looking into Canadian aboriginal human rights abuses & genocide for over twenty years to date. This year was the first year that the Government of Canada has admitted the word ‘genocide’ into the discourse that is publically disclosed by government. The Trudeau Liberal legacy will now indicate that it has only been the Liberal Party of Canada under a Trudeau led government that has even had the intelligence to admit fault and attempt reparations with First Nations Canada. The Conservative Party of Canada would never have had the wisdom of the Liberal Party to even hazard an apology to aboriginal Canadians let alone even mention the word genocide in any of their discourse. The Green Party of Canada has never mentioned aboriginal Canada aside from mentioning them in the environmental debates surrounding pipelines. The New Democratic Party has also demonstrated many times over that aboriginal First Nations people in Canada are indeed being genocided still to this day via the potable water conundrum on most First Nations reserves throughout Northern Ontario.

Canada recognizes First Nations people and respects them dearly but past governance has been lackluster in terms of helping aboriginal Canadians we all now admit are being subject to forms of genocide that we must all now address as quickly as possible.

Canadians know what right & wrong is even if past governance did not. Government is attempting to fix past mistakes & wrongs and they are not merely sweeping things under the carpet like American administrations do as they run roughshod over the American population.

Vitchek imagines that we in the rest of the world fear the Imperialist States of Amerikastan (and its Brutish and French slaves and lackeys). We do not. We hate them, true; I, personally, have long since realised that one can never trust an Amerikastani for a millisecond. But we do not fear them. Not after watching turbaned Afghan farmers and Iraqi slum teenagers with fifty year old rifles and homemade landmines fight the vaunted Amerikastani war criminal regime and its NATO slaves to a standstill. The Brutish are headed for a long welcome collapse and disintegration of their utterly evil nation, with the concomitant economic and social breakdown that will accompany it. That is excellent (there’s no need to have anything but Schadenfreude for the Brutish who suffer as a result), but it’s only the beginning. The Amerikastani Empire’s economy, based on the toilet paper known as the dollar, will go down the tubes as soon as major countries (not all, just major, countries) around the globe stop pretending it’s anything but toilet paper. Russia and China have already stopped doing so. What will the Empire of Evil then do? Shamble away into the night or try to destroy everything in a Hitlerite Götterdämmerüng? It’s obvious from the attempts by Russia and China to bolster their military forces (excluding the ridiculous and incompetent Russian Navy, which is a bad joke) that both these nations have decided that the Amerikastani Empire will try to take down everything with it. In that case, the retribution Amerikastanis have so long deserved will finally be brought down on their heads. If that means human extinction, well, we weren’t all that good for this planet anyway.

The Jeff Epstein case should be perused by all here. It provides insight into how things work in the US at the highest levels. In the Westminster pedophile scandal involving “Lord” Janner, it was possible to have ignored all the poor complainants, sodomised by Janner and his pals by simply asking the police to do so. Similarly Epstein and his friends recruited the poor, the vulnerable, the unparented and parentless children from shopping malls and passed them around their circle.Robert Maxwell’s daughter was a prominent recruiter. When they went to the police, it took several years before there was any prosecution and not a little shaming and cajoling.

In a country where a black man can get life for robbing a convenience store to feed his family, Epstein got a year of “jail” where he could leave for work all day. But the embers of depravity smouldered and Bill Clinton’s name popped up on the manifest of Epstein’s private plane more than two dozen times. Watch the space for some explosive developments to come. But do not overlook the wonderful weasel words used by the New York Times, among others, where victims are described as “underage women”. Not children or girls but “underage women”. It is time for the NYT to cease operation, or stop masquerading as a newspaper and rename their motto “ all the pro 1% stories that we think we can get you to believe”. No, it won’t fit in that box.

How a country treats its most vulnerable is a mineshaft canary for its values. Not that the opinion of US values can easily be lowered from its present comingling with bottom-of-ocean whale excrement. The present exposure, long overdue, is owed entirely to the courageous Miami Herald which took on some of the most powerful people in the land in the interests of abused children. Maybe the gravity-defying US pendulum, having defied the laws of physics for decades will finally decelerate and swing back. We can only hope.

The UK Column had an interesting segment on this yesterday. Who is Jeffrey Epstein? Teacher to trader to limited partner in Bear Stearns in four years. He is either very good; or something else is going on.

Is Ghislaine Maxwell a procurer, or is Epstein a concierge for the ruling class? My ears pricked up because another man I know of went from a cabbie to having a $25 investment portfolio overnight. That man was Bill Browder.

Persistent rumours of a state backer won’t go away. Ann Coulter (not an author I would normally follow) raised the possibility again. But she also raised another cogent point: this isn’t for the kids …they are playing the Acosta angle to get at Trump.

Epstein is a protected asset – a CIA/Mossad ‘made-man’ perhaps? He is certainly teflon-coated. There is much more to this than meets the eye. That ‘much more’ will never see the light of day. It seems they are pursuing the illegality of the deal Acosta cut Dershowitz et al. Dershowitz: now where have I heard that name before!

Epstein had abundant video cameras on Pedophile Island in the Virgins (irony?). He was playing a dangerous game and the FBI are said to have raided the island and done lots of viewing and confiscating. Epstein had the powerful by the shorts and hell and earth were moved to accommodate him. Acosta was an ambitious accomplice. You get Epstein off, you get a cabinet post. Trump knew the pedophile well and has spoken about what a great guy he was but did point out he liked his women young, (umbilical cord severed, but only just). So now Trump will disclaim that Acosta’s hiring had anything to do with Epstein, as if.

I hope Clinton finally gets his just desserts. He denied being to Pedo Island but where did Epsteins plane take him? Thailand?

Talmudistan is the world centre of child trafficking, as it is of organ trafficking.

The Epstein organisation has all the hallmarks of a Mossad front.
You have the “billionaire” Epstein himself, who apparently doesn’t have much money, with his non existent hedge fund, who appears out of nowhere with his paedo organisation fully formed and ready for business.
Lavish properties that apparently belong to no one.
Ghislaine Maxwell as Procuress In Chief, daughter of the Mossad agent Robert Maxwell, whose funeral was attended by 6 present and former Mossad directors.
A Who’s Who of politicians, rich and famous as frequent flyers on the Lolita Express, Clinton, Prince Andrew, Branson, hundreds of others, all filmed and recorded in the Lolita Mansion for Mossad Central.
Epstein has had his easy time in Jew Jail Country Club already. He faces some really hard time now, after Weinstein and Metoo. Prince Andrew won’t be able to get him a short sentence like last time. But if Epstein goes full Deep Throat on all the VIP paedos to negotiate a soft sentence, he will be found dead in his jail cell. Or go Man Overboard on his yacht like Old Maxwell.

I think the Epstein case needs a deep dive by Offg some time soon.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just what is going on here?
Why has the case against Epstein been resurrected, and why now?
is this just a normal law enforcement case, motivated by a desire for justice?

My reading of this is that Trump was patiently biding his time until the Mueller/ Russiagate hoax collapsed under its own weight.

That time has come.
He is not disposed to forgive and forget.
Trump and his administration have been the victims of an outrageous, blatant attempted coup and smear campaign involving several foreign governments, principally the UK and Ukraine, but also several others, together with the Democrat establishment, MSM, and corrupt and politicised intelligence and law enforcement agencies. They tried to prevent his election, then to cripple his administration, and impeach him. But this has failed now. It is a busted flush, and it’s revenge time.
Their whole operation was pretty amateurish. It shows how arrogant they were to believe they could get away with it.
Trump has a new AG in Barr, someone with backbone, a vast improvement on the spineless Sessions, who recused himself.
This is Trump’s opportunity to inflict some real pain on all those who have crossed him.
Acosta said he was told to lay off Epstein, because Epstein was “Intelligence” and above his pay grade.
What better way to get back at the Spooks and the Dirty Cops than to blow the case wide open?
The same applies to the UK, the source of the Steele Dossier and a lot of the allegations against Trump’s underlings.
Trump knows this. He protests how much he loves Britain and how great Theresa May is. But over the past couple of years, he has never lost an opportunity to knife May and twist the knife over Brexit and other issues. Why not cause some real pain for the UK Establishment by dragging Prince Andrew, Branson and others into a sordid paedo case they all thought had been safely buried?

This should all be fairly entertaining, if nothing else.

Yo mark great comments , but I think you might find that Sessions recused himself as part of Trump’s plan to focus Sessions on the Epstein Investigation 😉 I was also surprised to read elsewhere, as well as this:-

“Maxwell’s criminal activities began early in his career, culminating when the collapse of the Eastern Bloc set the stage for a feeding frenzy of fraud, deceit and theft of state assets. KGB and other Eastern Bloc intelligence agents—with whom Maxwell already had established contacts—moved into the business world following the breakup of the Soviet empire, and became the sharks that devoured the assets of state resources for their own ends. The underworld flourished, and Maxwell was there to help himself to a hefty 15 to 20 percent cut as he laundered their money through Bulgaria and Western banks. Soon, Maxwell had links to criminals who dealt in illegal arms, prostitution, money laundering, drugs, and contract killings—all of whom used Maxwell to launder their profits.
Probably the most audacious illegal business project with which Maxwell involved himself was Bulgaria’s Neva network. The concept was simple: plunder Western technology through secret agents, produce the same technology in Eastern Bloc nations, particularly Bulgaria, then sell the goods to the Eastern markets. Maxwell set up the companies to carry out the work, then laundered the profits through his network of banks. At its inception, Maxwell did not envision that Neva would grow into one of the most powerful crime syndicates in the world, embracing the Russian mafia, the crime families of Bulgaria, as well as those in New York, Hong Kong and Japan. All the companies Maxwell formed eventually would come under one name—Multi-Group—which controlled a significant percentage of global profits from gas, telecommunications, oil, gambling, and money laundering”

Now the Multigroup bosses of today like Iliya Pavlov and the one time MEP Delyan Peevski for the BG Freedom & Rights party (DPC), who should have been arrested by Interpol by now, whilst investigating our PM Borisov & CIA Pawn Tsvetanov of BG S.S. and the CEZ electricity scammers of Czech Origins, is just such a tangled web of continuous complex Mainstream Media deceit of old, including Murdoch & Maxwell &&& it gets tiring recalling all the RAMifications and my random active memory is exhausted from storing all the Omissions of the EU & Interpol & the MSM and STEVE & NASA’s role in all this, with Intel inside at every step i take …

You know, Intel inside Israel now … 😉

They tried to keep Andrew’s name out of the Epstein scandal, and deflect the attention off him by throwing Cliff Richard to the wolves, led by the BBC. But this should not be allowed to lie hidden any longer. Why should they be above the law?

Here is Epstein’s little black book .
https://gawker.com/here-is-pedophile-billionaire-jeffrey-epsteins-little-b-1681383992

>>> Epstein’s former House Manager Alfredo Rodriguez tried to sell it in 2009. About 50 of the entries, including those of many of Epstein’s suspected victims and accomplices as well as Trump, Love, Barak, Dershowitz, and others, were circled by Rodriguez. (The existence of the book has been previously reported by the Daily Mail. Gawker is publishing it in full here for the first time; we have redacted addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses, and the last names of individuals who may have been underage victims.)
Rodriguez didn’t share it with the FBI or Palm Beach Police Department detectives investigating Epstein. Instead, he tried to make a $50,000 score by covertly peddling the black book to ‘one of the attorneys launching lawsuits at Epstein’ on behalf of his victims…
The plot backfired when the attorney ‘reported’ Rodriguez to the FBI, and he was promptly charged with obstruction of justice and arrested- (which could have indicated that the attorney was actually working FOR Epstein?)-but not before he had, according to the FBI affidavit laying out the crime, marked up the book and an accompanying notepad with “handwritten notes” that contained “information material to the underlying investigation that would have been extremely useful in investigating and prosecuting the case, including the names and contact information of material witnesses and additional victims.”
Rodriguez, who spent 18 months in prison, ”died in December after a long illness and never spoke out about the address book”…. so the precise significance of the names he circled remains fuzzy( or does it?) But the FBI’s case against him makes clear that Rodriguez regarded the address book as crucial to understanding Epstein’s crimes; during a conversation with an undercover FBI agent posing as a potential buyer, he “discussed in detail the information contained in the book, and identified important information” to the agent. <<<

“The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.”[Thucydides] So true, unfortunately for the US the weak are growing stronger by the day, here are a few examples, the US gave Germany two instructions 1/ Stop the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, the US Ambassador to Germany, over the heads of the German government, warned companies involved in the project directly in letters of the punitive sanctions they faced, so far the project continues, this is very important for Germany, cheap gas to heat German homes and to make German Industry even more competitive, and at the same time asserting its independence from an overbearing US diktat. 2/ Trump wants Germany to increase its NATO spending to 2% of GDP hoping to eventually reach 4%, bearing in mind Germany’s GDP is over 4 Trillion dollars these are fantastic sums, Germany refused, in fact its projected NATO defence spending is going to be much less than 2%.
The US is being outmanoeuvred in the Middle East, the ‘arc of resistance’ is growing stronger by the day, Iranian highly accurate missile production is in full swing [legally] and Iran’s friends are benefiting by surrounding Israel and Saudi Arabia. Hezbollah alone [120,000 missiles] could in theory flatten Tel Aviv] that is Israel’s Achilles heel, no strategic depth, 10 miles wide at its waist and dependent on its Air force which, in the event of war, may see all their airfields destroyed.
Turkey, India, Saudi Arabia, China and others buying the S400 and in many cases still buying Iranian oil, slowly but surely the US is being snubbed, and alliances are being formed against it, even in NATO, the US MIC want a monopoly on weapons sales to all NATO nations, Frank Nitty [the mob] had the same caper going in Chicago speakeasies way back when, “You buy my hooch or you sleep with the fishes” Trump has the same MO, unfortunately for him his bluff is being called by too many sanctioned and threatened nations, unless his threats are effective as the German and Middle East examples above prove are not, then US credibility is shot. The exceptional Nation will be seen as an impotent paper tiger. That would not be before time and a fitting example of overweening arrogance.

Bush and Trump have many things in common but “honesty” is not one of them. In some ways Trump expresses the ugly warped values from the US that have always been there, but you must have been being ironic. Public lies are served at every meal. Otherwise, I agree with nearly everything said. When I was a boy, angst about nuclear war was in every mind and now 60+ years later, it remains in mine. Arrested development, Made in the USA.

For all that Trump is a piss poor president, he hasn’t started a war (all his are inherited), what we are seeing is a negotiating strategy.

For all his bluster, I don’t think Trump will attack Iran, he isn’t particularly military minded.

“I don’t think Trump will attack Iran”
To be honest , he might not be war president but the main reason he will not attack Iran is his wanting another term as president .War ,which Americans don’t want , would certainly
seal his defeat in the next election . Although the electoral college which determines who is elected , in my opinion , is skewed part of what they call democracy .

I’m sure I wasn’t the only reader who was meandering through this diatribe, neither roused nor revolted until I got to

“Both George W. Bush and Donald Trump have one thing in common: they are honest.”

WTF!

Yeah, Clinton & Oblamblam are as crooked as they come – no argument there, but trying to describe either shrub, the orange moron or both, as honest, is being as deceitful and dishonest as they are. eg shrub knew damn well there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq just as he knew the only way he was gonna get the energy corps off his back for the tens of millions of bucks they gave him for his campaign, was to stick to the deal, invade Iraq then force the Iraqis to sign up to 30 year oil leases. The trouble was he and his helpers weren’t sharp enough and the Iranians gazumped them.

The trumpet is as racist as his Al Swearengen-esque grandad was (and as gutless to boot), yet he lacks the balls to own his prejudices, preferring to wimp around the edges with insinuations about rape or drug dealing and he is doing all sorts of shady private side deals for property in both Saudi and israel. Honest? ha, getthefuckouttahere b4 anyone questions your probity.

It cannot go on and the issue is widening, too. Turkey is taking delivery of Russian S 400 and must be sanctioned according to the law. Sanctioning a NATO country – interesting.
India seems set to also purchase the S 400 and will also be sanctioned.

America will sanction so many adversaries that she will be on her own, hopefully soon before more destruction.

Us few in Australia cannot do much against our rulers who always cave in to licking America’s behind. In September our PM Morrison goes to Washington for a State Dinner with his handler. It is quite distressing to see the rulers do the wrong thing and spend so much money on assisting in America’s addiction to destroy countries.

Yes, you are right. But you would think that those families who sent their innocent boys off to die in Afghanistan would care. Or has Australia succumbed to the US model of having the military at all sporting events, and to telling them they are all heroes, no matter how unemployable, how ignorant or how lacking in decency? And having their families actually believe it. It’s alright then?

I hope Australia hasn’t done that, although I don’t know much about the country at all.
It is perhaps relevant to mention here that a very good friend of mine said, several decades ago, “the real enemy (and oxymoron) is military thinking”.
Coming from a military family today isn’t the same as becoming a captain in the navy was two or three hundred years ago, and it must be difficult, as it always is, to question your very roots, when military thinking has been in the background of your entire life.
I suppose nobody imagines that THEIR offspring will perish in a non-cause which was totally invented by a neocon berserker a long time ago, and in somebody else’s country too, since that would be so unjust, right?

No, not yet but the glorification of the military is very, very widespread. The lies are, too, of course. I am a new Australian and it is all quite sickening because it is increasing.

I do not know how many people are honestly on that anti-China/anti-Russia/pro US juggernaut. The military is generally not popular and despite having been forced, the Vietnam returnees were spat at and got tomatoes in their faces. That has only changed marginally because returned soldiers hardly find work.

But they must be quite afraid because the establishment gets more intense all the time. They had a big recruiting campaign and only had 600 applications when they needed 2,400.

The money they spend on all military things is absolutely mind boggling, even including 500 million for an underground war museum in Canberra. The one thing in their favour is probably that nobody wants to be the one who sends the US packing because he/she’d be responsible for whatever may happen. Rupert’s free weekly ‘paper’, 85 % ads, seemed to include a military story per issue. They don’t seem to pay enough – haven’t seen the paper for weeks now.

50 billion for new submarines which, in all likelihood cannot be crewed (like with the current ones) and will be outdated when taking delivery. It is madness all around – my favourite sentence:

Don’t let them use you – don’t enlist.

I think 6 Collins class subs were built, I’m pretty sure there have never been more than 3 operational any given time. Repairs and lack of trained crews the main issues. I lived in Adelaide where they were built; despite being “top secret” anyone with a dinghy could motor down the Port River and see the arse end of a couple hanging out the back of the shed. What a fuckin joke. For certain none of those subs, part of the grossly misnamed “Australian Defence Force” have ever fired a shot in anger. It’s just part of the price we pay for the “protection” of the US. Many over here need to recall that the so called “Brisbane line”was a plan to concede Japanese conquest of Australia north of Brisbane.

Dear George,

You would certainly not want to be visiting Australia during the second half of April each year, when the media is full of Anzac stories and propaganda.

You also would want to avoid watching television and reading the newspapers – so-called “quality” and “tabloid” papers, they are all no different from one another in their glorification of the military and their deliberate conflation of sport and sport celebrities with faux military “virtues” – and to avoid the various football Grand Final events in September and the Melbourne Cup horse race in November each year.

Thanks Jen. Not surprised. American mores have seeped into Canada in this context. So baseball games in Toronto routinely have a public military presence with uniformed overfed officer preening in the adulation of the crowd, but at least there is no flyover by jets like has become customary in the US. It is sickening and embarrassing.

“Australia has become a US mini-me and risks being known forever as its little star struck servant. Cannot for the life of me understand it.”

Try reading these articles and you will see the problem in Australian federal and state politics that most of us Australians aren’t aware of.

“The religious minority seizing power in the Liberal Party”

“The Devil and Scott Morrison: What do we know about the prime minister’s Pentecostalism?”

“As Australia becomes less religious, our parliament becomes more so”

When politicians in Australia’s two main political parties are coming from more marginal evangelical Christian streams (even within the mainstream Christian denominations) at a time when most Australians are becoming more secular, that tells you the country is heading towards becoming some sort of theocratic oligarchy. This certainly has implications for Australia’s future foreign policy, especially with regard to the Middle East and dealing with China.

Interesting and remarkably similar to the US. “Onward Christian soldiers” was not meant to be about invading, plundering, murdering and breaking treaties and conventions.

The Orange One’s crime in the eyes of American and Western oligarchy is that he is such an obvious pathetic buffoon that he’s a really bad “look” for empire. It was so much easier for America and our Western “allies” to pretend dedication to our much talked about “humanitarian” values and concerns when we had ‘Slick Willie’ Clinton or Barack ‘Peace Prize’ Obomber doing their smooth charming engaging psychopathic jive for the camera, while they were bombing and killing of course.

One can’t look around the West at leadership anywhere, however, without being completely appalled. Western governments now constitute what amounts to a large interlocking global criminal enterprise involved in everything from extortion, drug trafficking, mass weapons sales and gun running, human trafficking, illegal wars, starving civilians, supporting terrorists to use in our “regime change” crimes, massive financial crimes – you name the criminal activity – Western governments are sure to be up to their neck in it.

And no, the U.K. and U.S. don’t have any monopoly on child sex trafficking rings involving Western politicians and oligarchs:

Maybe we actually need another war to smash the United Snakes and Talmudistan once and for all. Maybe that is just what it takes, and afterwards, if anything is left, when the Exceptional And Indispensable Folk and the Chosen Folk have been incinerated, it will be possible to rebuild something better.
Let the strutting little sawdust Caesars with their “big, beautiful weapons” have their war and see how much they like it.
When this subhuman filth are starving and freezing in the rubble of their ruined cities, like Germany in 1945, watching their children die in front of them for lack of food and basic medicine, they will finally appreciate what they have inflicted on so many hundreds of millions for so many years. And maybe finally begin to clean up their act. But that’s what it will take. And nothing before in human history will ever have been so richly deserved.

Thank you for that, Milo. Suddenly a lot becomes clear. Though I suspect that this particular troll army is just a drop in the ocean. I wonder how many more of those centres exist. I have noticed e.g. that most web sites acquire comments at the rate of perhaps – at most – a dozen a day. But Brietbart can publish an article and, within a matter of hours, gather a few thousand comments – and the number goes up even as I watch. I suspect that Brietbart has a squadron of hack commentors who each pose as ten or more identities and all they do is sit there pumping out comments.

People I know who were around then said September 1939 came as a relief.
They knew war was coming and had been continually living on their nerves for five years.
That mental strain seemed worse than war itself.
The Iranians have had to put up with this for 40 years, not five.
If I were the Iranians I would respond aggressively to every provocation.
They should have shot down the US plane as well as the drone.
Some people say this is falling into a trap but I don’t accept that.
Failure to react is just taken for weakness and leads to more provocations.
If the plane had been shot down as well, the tanker would not have been hijacked.
They should have seized a British ship the following day.
For the same reason I think they should have withdrawn completely from the JCPOA a year ago and left the NPT.
Draw a proverbial line in the sand, and say bring it on.
