The Neolibreal New Word Order





There were two good articles in Counterpunch very recently about Latin America. I say good, they were very disturbing. They showed the immense power that the western aristocracy has due to the fact that they own most of the World's wealth, and control most of the media which they use to spew out their endless propaganda. They are able to engineer recessions in any country, to cause food shortages, to mess about with its exchange rates, massively increase inflation, and they have ways to try to make the any government they don’t like look corrupt, incompetent and not up to the job to try make people vote them out.

 

The US, or Anglo US, has now started to turn its attention away from the Middle East and turn towards Russia and Latin America instead. The US has successfully severed the link of any closer ties that were forming between Russia and Europe by causing a civil war in the Ukraine, where their real aim was to close down Russia's gas supplies to Europe.

 

Now, behind the scenes they are trying to reverse all the democratic and socialist reforms that have occurred in Latin America over the past few years. The tactics used are frightening. Frightening because they have the power, and the means, the wealth, to destroy any democratic movement, or government, they wish, and to can make it look like it's the actually the enemy, and then get their own despotic government voted back in. It is also frightening because they have managed to topple many governments in the Middle East and the Ukraine through war while pretending to be the good guys which they have largely got away with it. And they can do this anywhere in the world wherever they wish. Europe, the UK, Canada, and Australia have long been US vassal states with their politicians corrupted by big money, their democracies a sham.  

 

The world has been turned up side down where the good guys are the really the bad guys and the so called ‘bad guys’ are often nowhere near as bad as they have been made to have been.

 

Is Putin a good guy or a bad guy?  Personally, I think he is nowhere near as bad as the west makes him out to be, but he isn't perfect, and one reason for this is that he has his own treacherous ruling class to keep an eye on, many of whom would love to have him removed from power with a US puppet put in his place Then they will work with the Western aristocracy to loot Russia again of everything it has while making themselves very wealthy indeed..

 

The European socialists are neoliberals who have also done much of the damage to Latin America and the Middle East. While horrendous crimes were being caused by US led wars, the UK Guardian, amongst others, focused on so the called 'pro democracy dissidents' that had been imprisoned by the some of the governments of Latin America because of the riots and espionage they had caused. But the history of Latin America was one of US trained brutal death squads and these so called ‘pro democracy groups’ are funded by Latin America's old guard, the very people who ran the dictatorships and were behind the most despicable war crimes and brutal murders which left whole villages totally destroyed. These massacres were orchestrated because ordinary civilians greatly outnumbered the ruling elite, so they used the most brutal oppression to utterly frighten the population into complete submission. Blowtorch Bob was a general who was infamous for his favorite torture method.

On another blog I visit some of the people there were saying that Putin was a dictator and that he murders his political opponents. Others were saying that he was a communist. So I asked them to tell me who told them this, and where did they get this information from? Was it from western media?  Whether Putin is a bad guy or a good guy one thing we can be certain of is that virtually everything we read about him here in the West is filled with propaganda and half truths. Saudi Arabia with its mass beheadings is hardly ever criticized by our leaders, and when it is mentioned in our press it never has the sinister overtones that get associated with Putin. I said to these people, can't you see that they are softening us up for a war with Russia, or at least getting us ready for his overthrow which might well cause a civil war there which could then spill over into the rest of the world. The Neocons are crazy to be taking these kinds of risks.  

 

You might think that Putin is completely safe, and that only a nuclear war could take him out. But Paul Craig Roberts and Michael Hudson both describe how the US is trying to break Russia up by funding Muslim extremist groups there, especially in Chechnya. They are also funding NGO'S who say they are campaigning for more 'democracy', but are they really just out to stir things up with these stories like, ‘Putin hates gays’, and ‘Putin imprisons young women of a punk band who were just having fun?’ More on this propaganda in another post. The neoconservatives aim is to break up Russia into smaller countries so they can control and corrupt them more easily. And millions of innocents could die in the resultant wars.

 

 

It is scary to see how the western ruling elite have the power to do all this, to be able topple democratic regimes, trigger endless wars, break up countries, and drive of the rest world into slavery, while calling it capitalism and freedom. And we in the west have been programmed to believe that while this capitalism might taste awful, it's a medicine that is good for us, and so we go along with the enslavement of the rest of the World and ourselves A world where only the markets rule, which our western aristocracy have complete control over, which means that all the world’s wealth flows towards the City of London and Wall Street. This is a fake capitalism, where no matter how hard many millions of people in the rest of the world may work, they always remain poor.

 

Latin America Has to Fight and Win!

 

The US is trying to bring the Death Squads back again.
