The world has gone crazy: PCR warns of dire consequences if Washington attacks Assad's forces. Why does the U.S. persist in this crazy idea, how can they be so mad, they must be completely divorced from the real world, being run by crazed Neocons. This is the last half of PCR's article. KV.
On top of Cheney’s coup against accountable government, we have in America today another coup, organized by former CIA director John Brennan, former FBI director Comey, deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein, the Democratic National Committee, the departed Republican senator John McCain, a coup fully supported by the entirety of the US presstitute media. This coup is against the democratically elected President of the United States for the sole reason that he threatens the power and profit of the entrenched military/security complex, about which President Eisenhower warned us 57 years ago, by wanting to normalize relations with Russia, the world’s premier nuclear power.
The question is unavoidable: Why do the American people put up with this? Are they so insouciant that they have no realization that, if a president can be driven from office because he wants peace with Russia, the removed president’s successor will have to stand against Russia or also be driven from office. Trust and negotiation between the nuclear powers becomes impossible. Why do Americans support conflict with a nuclear power that can completely destroy America?
During the entirety of the Cold War, in which I was a participant, the emphasis was on reducing tensions and creating trust. Today Washington’s interest is piling provocation after provocation on a country that can wipe us off the face of the earth. The liberal/progressive/left, the Democratic National Committee, the CIA and the rest of the covert state, and the media whores all share this same commitment to the reckless and irresponsible provocation of a powerful nuclear power. As the US military itself acknowledges, Russia’s weapons are far beyond America’s defenses.
So what is going on? Is it the liberal/progressive/left’s desire that evil America be destroyed? Is this desired destruction of evil America the reason the left has allied itself so tightly with the warmongers in Washington? Is this the reason that the left and the Democrats and a handful of Republicans want to impeach President Trump for attempting to make peace with Russia?
How can these crazed immoral people present themselves as some sort of moral arbiter when they are locked on a trajectory that will destroy Earth?
This destruction might be closer than anyone thinks. Here is the situation in Syria:
Russia and Syria, in cooperation with Iran and Turkey, have begun the assult on Iblid province, the last stronghold of Washington’s proxy army consisting of Al Qaeda, Al Nursra, and ISIS mercenaries hired by Washington.
According to reports, which might or might not be true considering the lack of veracity that is the defining characteristic of the Western media, the US and UK have troops among the mercenary forces, hoping apparently that this presence will deter the attack. As the attack has already begun, this is a false hope.
The Russians discovered Washington’s plot to explode a chemical weapon in Iblid province and exposed Washington’s plot to the UN. Washington had it set up that once its proxies created the appearance of a chemical weapon explosion, Washington would send Tomahawk missiles upon the Syrian forces, thus protecting its proxy army that it sent to overthrow Assad for Israel. The Russian exposure of Washington’s conspiracy has denied Washington UN support. Moreover, Russia has sent a naval force armed with the new Russian hypersonic missiles to Syria and has announced that its aircraft in the area are also armed with these missiles. As the US Navy and Air Force have no defense whatsoever against these missiles, if the US attacks the Syrian/Russian forces, it will be Putin’s decision whether any US ship or military aircraft in the area exists as anything but a smoldering ruin.
In other words, the entire power in the area lies in Russian hands. If Washington had any sense—and it doesn’t, Washington has hubris and arrogance in the place of sense—Washington would be nowhere close to Syria.
The question is this: Will the hotheads in Washington conclude that the Russian announcements and marshalling of forces is “just another Putin bluff.” So far Putin has been loaded up with never-ending insults and provocation— blame for the crash of the Malaysian airliner, blame for poisoning a variety of people in England, blame for invading Ukraine, blame for interfering in US elections, blame for supporting the “dictator” Assad, a person democratically elected by a large vote who obviously has the support of the Syrian people as he liberates Syria from the forces Washington sent to put the country into the same chaos that exists in Iraq and Libya.
Have we reached the situation about which I have been worried, worries shared with my readers, in which Washington makes the miscalculation, based on the incorrect understanding of Russia’s resolve, to launch an attack on the Syrian/Russian forces that have begun the final liberation of Syria from Washington’s paid mercenaries? Yesterday the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity sent a letter to President Trump advising him of the war danger that the Trump administration has created by its continued illegal interference in Syria’s internal affairs.https://www.globalresearch.ca/moscow-has-upped-the-ante-in-syria/5653571
The Russian government cannot accept Washington’s military intervention in behalf of Al Qaeda, Al Nursa, and ISIS without completely losing all credibility, not only in the world, but inside Russia itself.
A realistic alternative to military action would be for Washington to stand aside as Syria reconstitutes itself and use a propaganda war to blame Syria and Russia for civilian deaths and for destroying “democratic rebels” who rose against a “dictator.” The fear could be expanded to the Baltics and Ukraine by reviving the propaganda that Putin intends to reconstruct the Soviet Empire.
Washington has long used an expertly manufactured fear of Russia to control Europe. Fear can keep Europe in line, whereas military action against Russia could scare Europe into taking refuge in a revival of its sovereignty.
Yesterday the Wall Street Journal reported: “President Bashar al-Assad of Syria has approved the use of chlorine gas in an offensive against the country’s last major rebel stronghold, U.S. officials said, raising the prospects for another retaliatory U.S. military strike as thousands try to escape what could be a decisive battle in the seven-year-old war.” According to the Wall Street Journal, the US strikes could target Russian and Iranian forces as well as Syrian forces.
It is difficult to believe that Washington thinks attacks on Russian forces would go unanswered. Such a reckless and irresponsible act could initiate Armageddon.
The claim that Assad has approved the use of chlorine gas in the liberation of Iblid is propagandistic nonsense put out by Washington as an excuse for Washington’s effort to protect its proxy army in Syria with military strikes. All Syrian chemical weapons were removed by Russia and turned over to the US during the Obama regime. Moreover, Russia would not permit Assad to use chemical weapons if he had them.
Life on earth is faced with a situation in which Washington is so determined to overthrow Assad and to leave Syria in the same chaos as Libya and Iraq that Washington is willing to risk war with Russia. Never before have irrationality and immorality had such a firm hold on a government. The world should be scared to death of the recklessness and irresponsibility of the US government.
“During the entirety of the Cold War, in which I was a participant, the emphasis was on reducing tensions and creating trust.”
ReplyDeletePaul Craig Roberts is dreaming. The USA stationed nuclear-tipped missiles in Turkey, plus other areas that bordered the USSR. Eventually the USSR responded by putting missiles in Cuba, which led to the Cuban missile crisis. How did this involve “reducing tensions and creating trust”?
What about the infamous “Red Scare” after both world wars? What about the “duck and cover” drills that American schoolchildren did for many years? What about the mania for building fallout shelters? What about U.S. military aircraft carrying live nuclear weapons when they did practice drills from the mid-1940s to the mid-1960s? How did all this involve “reducing tensions and creating trust”?
What about the sheer idiocy of a population that obeys the U.S. government’s orders to regard the USSR as “evil,” and then “good,” and then “evil” again?
U.S. society is insane, but when has it not been? The U.S. government deliberately sacrificed 2,403 American lives at Pearl Harbor, plus 2,996 American lives on 9-11. Obama destroyed Libya, and declared that the U.S. government has the right to assassinate any U.S. citizen, anywhere, any time, for any reason. Slavery. Japanese internment. Native American extermination. Ghastly medical experiments on helpless victims (including children). When has U.S. society not been insane?
Paul Craig Roberts: “The liberal/progressive/left, the Democratic National Committee, the CIA and the rest of the covert state, and the media whores all share this same commitment to the reckless and irresponsible provocation of a powerful nuclear power.”
It is sad to see so-called “leftists” howl for nuclear war -- but what else can we we expect? Eighty percent of Americans are hopelessly stupid. If you doubt this, then check the reader comments on "leftist" blogs. Most “leftists” believe whatever the media and politicians tell them. If the U.S. government calls someone a “dictator,” then for most “leftists” he is a “dictator.” For most “leftists,” Maduro, Putin, Assad, and Kim Jong-un are all “dictators.”
I was dismayed at Sam Seder for attacking Jimmy Dore. Jimmy Dore is the best thing to come out of the progressive left, but Sam Seder hates him and so do all the Sam Seder followers. They say he is the Alex Jones of the left, by Jimmy Dore's shows are extremely well out together, well thought out, very concise, and have no ranting, unlike Alex Jones who rabbits for hours.
ReplyDeleteI started arguing with Sam Seder followers on his YouTube channel and i was dismayed at the crap his followers were coming up with. They really think Killary would have been good and that she was on the Left. One guy Acknowledged i was a lefty but said it was just right wing B.S. i was regurgitating about Hilary. So i responded with a by putting out a link to the video where she says, We came, he saw, he died, hah! Hah! Hah!. Now tell me she isn't a monster, I said, there wasn't a war she did not support? But I never got a reply.
I understand PCR. He makes up his own reality to some extent because he really wants to believe that there was good in the world. He wants to believe they there is a better place that existed once and that we can get back to it. His intentions are good. He's a nice guy.
ReplyDeleteBut i agree with you, Konrad, there is something not right about American culture. When I was young, I loved American films, Singing in the Rain, Danny Kay, all those Hollywood classics. But then the films became violent, and comedies and some cartoons even had violence in. That to me wasn't ethical. Cops with guns, criminals with guns, drug addicts with guns, street gangs with guns, ordinary law abiding Christians wuth guns. I vowed never to go to America.
Now I find out that the cia out the guns and drugs into black areas to turn them into gettos which would frighten white folk into voting Republican. The CIA's intention was to stop black people from doing well, becoming middle class, starting up their own businesses, etc. What The CIA wanted was drug and crime filled gangster rap. What sort of democracy is that? That isn't a democracy. That's evil.
Anyway, have you seen this documentary, Konrad, is terrifying if true, and probably is. American and Germans work together after WW2 to create the ultimate terror. Evil off the planet.
