THE TOTALITARIAN AMBITIONS OF WESTERN ELITES

If western elites had their way there would be no alternative media, no independent voices on social media and certainly no critical voices on mainstream media regarding their rule or contrived narratives.

If they had their way there would be radio silence except for their Orwellian transmissions faithfully transmitted by a compliant mainstream.

Those who dared rebut, criticize or question official narratives would be quickly cancelled by one means or another. They would be framed as nutballs, extremists, traitors and/or agents of a foreign power.

If you have read George Orwell’s ‘1984‘ you will know what kind of thing they perceive as the ideal, an absence of alternative narratives or at the very least branding them as ‘fake news’, ‘conspiracy theories’ or ‘Russian propaganda’... perhaps this approach already sounds somewhat familiar?

Have you heard much self-criticism from western elites any time recently? Any talk of the lies that caused over one hundred thousand deaths in Iraq? The bombing of Libya into a state of chaos and lawlessness that now features a thriving slave trade and warring militias fighting to the death? Or have you only heard the voices of those in high places across the world of politics and media who point at others somewhere ‘over there’ who are abusing some kind of right or other? No mention of the right to life then? No sign of contrition (not even going so far as guilt) for bringing the entire Middle East into a fragmented hotbed of imminent violence and never-ending strife? Nothing to do with them, right?

The programming goes on as usual. The facade of western probity, the assertion of purity of intent and the never-wavering belief in preemptive attacks based on dubious assertions. The judge, jury and executioner status of the USA and UK are inviolate, unquestionable and defended to the death, the literal death of others.

To keep the conditioning of their populations active and all-pervasive there has to be a constant very convincing charade of utmost sanctity. This means that murder must be sanitized, attacks on sovereign nations whether covert or overt must have a patina of supreme justification so the sheep-like populace are kept fast asleep.

Voices pointing out that these emperors have no clothes on and have not a leg to stand on in regard to justifying their murderous activities are required to be silenced by one means or another. Of course while the constant cacophony of authorized narratives are still avidly tuned into through state-compliant outlets such as CNN and BBC doubts can be assuaged as they arise, a hypnotic flow of nuanced conditioning will lull most brains to sleep.

But the rising minority who are waking from their slumbers and recognizing the lies coming down from on high and their inescapable crimes against humanity, war crimes and legalized mass murder on a grand scale is becoming an issue that the elites committing these crimes are growing increasingly aware of.

These elites after all are the perpetrators of the ‘Something must be done’ memes that precede every mass murder event they wish to initiate, therefore they are good at spotting activities that may just get in the way of the next one, be it Cuba, Iran or Russia. They are expert in the field of psychological operations and the myriad techniques involved with quietly snuffing out opposition via the CIA or MI5 at home just as they are in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan or elsewhere.

Anyone who becomes popular enough pointing out inconvenient truths who pop their head above certain parapets will have a file created somewhere in the depths of C.I.A. Langley, Virginia or at MI5/G.C.H.Q.

If popularity continues to grow (it doesn’t matter who they are, a virtual unknown or such as Tulsi Gabbard or Jeremy Corbyn) then the PsyOps people will receive a memo or two. Consultations will be held, meetings will be arranged, agendas set and campaigns will be formulated to nip such people in the bud.

All will be done on a need to know basis of course with the top brass, ministers, senators and all others kept at a deniability arm’s length informed via the most confidential level possible.

The West is supposed to be democratic. If you believe that you must be blind, deaf and very dumb. Did you engage in the protest marches of millions to tell western nations such as the USA and UK not to attack and invade Iraq? How did that work out for you? Was there a response indicating in any shape or form that your voice meant something, that there was a democratic process involved at any level?

An army of politicians at the highest level in both the U.S. and UK lied to their little hearts’ content and we all knew it, didn’t we? Who went to jail for the mass murder that then took place?

Precisely no one, that’s who. Democracy? The rule of law? Yeah, right.

The dictatorship of western elites where a four-yearly farce takes place is hardly what the ancient Greeks thought democracy should look like.

But no one is supposed to notice. The sheep are meant to keep their heads down in the consumer and entertainment troughs and not worry their woolly little heads about such things.

And those who do? They are increasingly to be flagged up, targeted and canceled.

It can never be those who killed hundreds of thousands based on a pack of lies that are dangerous, never those who laid waste to entire cities and nations. Oh no... it can never be said that THEY are dangerous.

Those who are dangerous are of course those who POINT OUT their lies, crimes and perpetration of serial mass murder.

Welcome to our melange of '1984', 'Brave New World’ & 'Alice in Wonderland’ where all logic and proportion is twisted, reversed and used against us... just as Orwell predicted.

All to align with the totalitarian ambitions of those designer-suited, perfectly respectable mass murdering “democratic” elites of the western world.


 

IS GLOBAL HARMONY SO IMPOSSIBLE?

It is a relatively small planet and together we have reached a reasonably high level of technical achievement and efficiency.

The coverage of higher levels of life sustainability remains patchy of course and in many rain poor areas this is unlikely to change radically even with the best will in the world. In these areas of resource poverty we certainly find negative behaviors being generated in the fight for survival though the conflicts do tend to stay local.

The most prominent problem continent is Africa with Latin America following a close second. India, which might be expected to generate similar phenomena appears largely exempt except in times of an internal flare up of tension between the Hindu and Muslim populations.

In terms of nation against nation conflicts that between India and Pakistan is one of the most prominent. Perhaps the most prominent of all however are the multiple stresses within the Middle East where religious facts also feature highly. Saudi Arabia and Iran have been adversaries for many years with the Sunni Muslims are in conflict with Shi’ite Muslims. Israel with its Jewish majority is aligned with Saudi Arabia while the Alawite minority in power in Syria sides with Iran. These fracture lines create a constant tension which underlies daily acts of aggression by one side or another by either word or deed.

The Middle East is the epicenter of mutual discord where violence is never far from the surface. The lack of any lasting stability and the wide distances between the various powers involved make for a powder keg situation that looks impossible to make safe. Greater powers on the fringes of the region such as Turkey and Russia, and some farther flung such as the USA lend their input with variable results. The USA is engaged in a covert war against Syria because Syria is aligned with Iran. Russia assists Syria against its internal dissident forces and the proxies of the USA, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and other regional states along with combatants from a wide variety of other nations.

While the Middle East remains an intractable problem there is an overarching conflict of interests that lies above and beyond it but which also intermittently and tangentially plays a part within it.

The USA is endeavoring to assert (or it could be said to reassert) its status as the world’s preeminent superpower. It has a historical claim predating any recent events to this title in coordination with others such as the UK and much of Europe, but its desire to maintain, bolster and renew this status in recent years stems from the most grievous wound it ever received as a nation state, that which occurred on September 11th 2001.

While the U.S. poured resources and energy into the surge of internal and external response to 9/11 in an attempt to heal and protect itself by closing down all possible dangers to it, it arrived in an era that was already several decades old where significant other nations were fast rising in terms of economic, technological power and the extent of their diplomatic reach and influence.

The goal of the USA post-9/11 was to make the world safe for America. To do this required neutralizing all threats and eliminating them if at all possible. This was to be done using myriad means with both soft and hard power. Initially there was a perceived need to demonstrate strength through a hard power alone. This began to be phased out after the expenditure of much blood and treasure with dubious and arguably extremely counterproductive results. Increasingly, U.S. soft power has taken over from hard with an ever-growing use of technology, a strategy of instigating disruptive covert forces within targets alongside an almost comprehensive ability to deliver media manipulation internally and among its allies.

The creation of an almost watertight media environment where governmental narratives on foreign policy issues are reflected without significant deviation has become the foundation on which to allay home fears among the majority population. This allows the manipulations externally to be carried out without fear of any internal backlash.

The Middle East is producing the most obvious heated exchanges both verbal and physical. This is where the most volcanic eruptions are likely to take place in future as they have done in the past. Current hot spots are Yemen where the Saudis, aided by western nations are fighting a proxy war against Iran. The Israelis are never far from mounting violent attacks on Palestinian targets and within Syria the innumerable forces in operation constantly vie for power in a great many localities where an expansion of hostilities could occur at any time.

The overarching ambitions of the USA and its allies are expressed meanwhile in lesser terms, the most significant fracture point where violence is seen on a daily basis is in eastern Ukraine where the USA is in a proxy war with the Russian Federation. This is the location of a hot war in Europe seldom reported these days but a highly significant source of both tension and bloodshed. The conflict over Crimea is also heating up with the Ukrainian regime attempting to deny the people there water. They have dammed the source of 85% of the water the people on Crimea need to survive in an act of potential genocide.

In eastern Ukraine and Crimea then we have another seemingly intractable conflict but this time not in the far flung Middle east but within Europe. This conflict has the potential to generate a wider war reflecting a crucial aspect of the overarching conflict between the USA and one of those it considers an obstacle to its post-9/11 goals, Russia.

Then we come to the most significant conflict which resides at the highest level of all in terms of having the largest global effect, that between the USA and China. All else pales into insignificance compared to this battle of the world’s two most economically powerful behemoths. This is the battleground where the ultimate fate of the entire world is being fought. It is being fought using economic weapons... and will be a fight to the death.

The elites of the USA see themselves as being in a condition of waging a war to maintain the existence of the values they hold most dear and to protect, and expand if at all possible, its national interests and that of its allies. They perceive China as an existential threat to these values and interests. Rather than find any cooperative arrangement whereby a balance could be achieved in solely economic terms U.S. elites feel they are justified in acting aggressively due to the very different economic rules by which China is governed. The conflict can be likened to the gladiatorial fights seen in Rome’s coliseum in ancient days when two gladiators were given very different weapons to fight each other with, perhaps a spear and shield on one side and a helmet and net on the other.

Only one or the other in this contest of superpowers can win. The elites of the USA are convinced they must win so as not to be vulnerable to attack as they were on 9/11. The Chinese elites are not working under the burden of such a project however but a more simpler goal, to achieve as beneficial a lifestyle to their population as humanly possible. This is the overarching conflict that we are seeing played out now via myriad political and economic tactics on one side where a wrecking ball policy has been decided upon...while the other gets busy with laying down the necessary infrastructure to generate ever growing trade networks and means to create ever more partnerships.

Only when one or the other of these behemoths gains a certain level of dominance over the other will some semblance of stability arise and the possibility of increasing cooperation emerge. Until then, conflict of one kind or another, but not violent conflict, appears to be the order of the day.

But on the day of reconciliation which follows the acknowledgement of the loser that he has lost, new avenues will emerge from the mist of conflict that lead to ever greater cooperative power by every major power to resolve all powder keg situations that fester elsewhere.

I believe these circumstances as described above are the only real hope for the global harmony that we seem so very far from achieving currently.

IT’S THE FOREVER WAR... UNTIL IT ISN’T

Those of you who still retain some notion that western politicians are going to see sense and stop walking the road to war can let that drop now. We have already been at war for at least fourteen years since Vladimir Putin’s address at the Munich Security Conference in the year 2007.

From February of that year western elites were daggers drawn concerning Vladimir Putin and his closest allies in the Kremlin. There can be no doubt about that.

If you run a search and look at articles about and photographs of Putin before 2007 you will find nothing negative, you’ll find heartfelt praise from George W. Bush and photographs of Putin and his wife with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. Look for the same after February of 2007 when he addressed the West’s elites and said Russia would work with them but not be subservient to them and you will find almost endless attacks, insinuations and outright accusations of wrongdoing.

It couldn’t be clearer.

It’s not all that’s going on but that’s basically it regarding the continual animosity towards Vladimir Putin and it is certainly showing no sign of ending.

So, what else is going on?

As there is before and after Putin’s speech there is also before and after 9/11.

Before 9/11 the elites of the USA were certainly arrogant, felt they and their nation were unquestioningly exceptional and had a tendency to throw their weight around whenever and wherever they wished. Only a cursory look at the coups and assassinations in Latin America alone show us this. The level of belligerence and bullying was high. What the U.S. wanted it generally got, one way or another. Either with or without allies.

Then came 9/11.

9/11 was a shock of such proportions to the elite superstructure of the USA and indeed to those of the western world that it cannot be described in mere words. This was never meant to happen and the reactions were twofold; we have let ourselves be vulnerable to attack and it can never be allowed to happen again and, we have to demonstrate unequivocally to the world that we remain strong and that we will no longer put up with anyone or any nation being against us. We need strength in depth and we need to project our power globally.

(You will be able to tell from the last paragraph that I do not believe for an instant that 9/11 was an inside job as some claim. For a great many reasons I do not give that theory any credence whatsoever. I’m not going into the ins and outs of why I feel this so strongly here save to say I have looked at this and have come to the decision that the essential elements we know as the standard analysis are factual.)

The meetings directly after 9/11 have not been publicized except for the one leak provided by General Wesley Clark which I am sure everyone reading will have heard of, the memo stating that the USA will seek regime change in seven specified nations.


These immediate period after 9/11 was when the forever war was formulated. There was to be no leeway given on any goal set out with the aim of ensuring the future safety of the USA. No tool, method, policy or weapon would be excluded from the arsenal of weapons with which to accomplish every goal delineated and that the ‘War on Terror’ so called would remain open-ended and continuous until every “enemy” had been vanquished and every “hostile” nation subdued and subject to elite western control and influence.

This is the forever war. We are in it now. It will not end until the USA has achieved the goals set out above. There will be no true diplomacy, no dialogue, no debate and no detente leading to agreements which bring opposing parties together. There will only be U.S. and western demands until those being demanded relent, submit and obey. Debating and having dialogue indicate that there will be some give and take. There can be none as the U.S./western elite side want their demands met to conform with the goals above. They are non-negotiable. Any relenting on those goals leaves the U.S. at risk to the percentage that the full demands are unmet and the goals are unattained. This was what was agreed after 9/11. These goals MUST be met. Nothing less. Not 1% less. Not 0.0001% less.

This is the forever war. A war that demands TOTAL victory and not one iota of relenting can take place at any time whatsoever. This is why the U.S. elites will not give up in in Venezuela, in Cuba, Nicaragua, Syria, Ukraine, or Iraq. Nor will they give up in their desire to humble any and all other nations that are not made safe by being brought to the feet of western elites such as Iran, Russia and China.

The war is only intended to have one destination and to be carried on with no turning back until that destination is achieved to ensure the continued, complete and perennial safety of the USA until the end of time. The overarching goal that incorporates both goals stated above is the achievement of full spectrum dominance by the USA and hence all her allies. In short to make this a prison planet controlled by and for the sake of America and its allies.

That is the future of humanity if this war is taken to its final conclusion with the West winning in a conclusive and final victory over all opposition.

So, why do I title this text, ‘IT’S THE FOREVER WAR... UNTIL IT ISN’T’?

Because the West is NOT going to win. It is already clear that it is impossible for it to win.

This is not because Vladimir Putin with the considerable weight of Russian power behind him can stop the elites of the West in their determined quest. Certainly he is a major figurehead and though Russia has a well-trained military and he can without doubt get the majority of Russians behind him to oppose the West. But with an economy approximately the size of South Korea Russia simply has not the economic or military power of the Soviet Union. Besides, there can be no military solution to this conflict. The war will be won through a far greater economic power than Russia can ever become. That power and the end of all western hopes for victory can only come from China.

In short, China has been rising fast for thirty years now. China has its own system of governance and by all polls is a very popular one by its citizens. The Chinese economy is fast overtaking that of the USA and has already overtaken the USA as the biggest trading nation with Europe. This can only build to ever greater heights once China’s incredible investment, the ‘Belt and Road’ initiative is complete. The amount of influence China has in Europe, Africa and elsewhere is set to soar. This acts directly against U.S. plans for global full spectrum dominance. This is at the root of U.S. economic policy which desperately seeks to hold back China in any way it can. But this is in vain, China will not be held back and is already almost fully recovered from the Covid-19 pandemic and her economy is beginning a renewed surge. The latest figure on Chinese economic growth is 3.5%, an incredible performance showing the resilience of the Chinese economy. And this is only the start.

Meanwhile the U.S. economy and that of its allies has declined and will decline further. Economic power equates to military power and the power of political influence. The rise of China and the descent of the USA and the West in general makes for obvious conclusions.

The goal of full spectrum dominance over land, sea, air and space that is at the cornerstone of post-9/11 thinking and determination in the USA and West in general is doomed to failure and a total and abject failure at that.

Sooner or later... and it will be later due to the obstinacy and group-thought myopia on the side of the USA and its allies, there will come a time of acknowledgement that it’s over, that there is no possible way that the goals set after 9/11 can be achieved. At that point we have to hope questioning, pragmatic and rational minds are available within the general “Yessir!" blindness that constitutes U.S. geopolitical thought. We have to hope that some semblance of broad awareness prevails at that moment and that those advocating the most desperate of military solutions do not prevail. For there will be those who cannot reconcile themselves to failure in the mission, who are so absolutely certain that it is all or nothing, victory or death that they will advocate strategic nuclear strikes in their desperation.

If we manage as a species to move past this point then a new pathway can tentatively and very gradually be created where the possibility of engagement in diversity emerges and the wall of fear built on dogma and paranoia begins a process leading eventually over time to its being totally dismantled.  

And at that point the forever war will be well and truly over.


 

MISDIRECTION, MANIPULATION & DEMONIZATION

The games that the devious play are many and far from a modern phenomenon. The dirty tricks brigade have a long and infamous history where attention is pointed away from their crimes and towards the non-existent or lesser crimes of others. They use the tricks of the sociopath to confuse, divide and denigrate, always with an eye to the main chance in order to further their own interests.

Prior to the Iraq war we saw innumerable attempts to manipulate western audiences into sanctioning ultra-violence by demonizing a chosen enemy and simultaneously instigating fear of ‘the other’.

They say the first victim of war is the truth. But it is more accurate to say that truth dies when one nation wishes to make war against another. The lies begin in the preparation for that war to dissolve any barriers or public relations issues in committing the planned crimes.
Western elites make their plans then seek to create a pathway to realizing them. Their populations are seen stupid beasts who have to be treated as having an ignorant herd mentality. What do these plebs know? We have all the data needed to make a decision. Why should some crazy notion of democracy interrupt our carefully laid plans?

The general public is treated to generalizations rather than genuine information. A case in point is what Tony Blair told Britain as compared to what was in the report compiled on Iraq when Blair’s only purpose was to get Britain to back the USA in the war it lusted after. Every qualifying term such as ‘possibly’, ‘we think’, ‘in our estimation’ and so forth was removed by him and instead he delivered bald statements of asserted fact to the UK parliament.

“Iraq has weapons of mass destruction which can be readied to fire at 45 minutes notice.”

This was the very kind of generalized, fear-mongering statement designed to instill greatest fear in the mind of the British populace that is a classic of its kind. It is a statement of blatant manipulation based on a completely unwarranted assertion. No ‘if’, ‘buts’ or whens’. No possiblies, maybes or any qualifier at all. A bald statement of a lie.  And it worked. This was the headline next day as it was calculated to be as Blair and his cohorts worked on his speech. And the supposition in many rather uninformed minds was that this meant the missiles could hit Britain, exclamation mark. Those fully aware of how far away Iraq is knew this was not the case... but no clarification was given of course.

Ultimately Iraq was found to have no weapons of mass destruction whatsoever of course. That over one hundred thousand had died due to a pack of lies and an overriding enthusiasm for going to war created hardly a ripple. An inquiry came and went... with a tiny blip of expressed worry about this and that and was soon forgotten by most and ignored by those who had instigated the war. No one went to jail. No one apologized. Indeed, Tony Blair simply kept saying “We did the right thing.” And they have been doing the “right” thing ever since. Libya was next. Then the proxy war in Syria.

Each leader the West wants to depose gets the same treatment. Demonization. Even when there are pictures of western leaders shaking hands with and/or hugging them them in previous times this doesn’t stop the overnight transformation from divine to demon.

This sort of thing has a long history. When King Richard the Lionheart of England was marching his army across Europe on the crusades he sought to add forces to it as he went along. As he arrived at outposts along the way he or his people would spread a certain story among the people and to the local knights. The tale was told that the Arabs in Jerusalem enjoyed drinking the fresh warm blood of Christian babies of an evening. You can imagine the response of the god-fearing folk, knowing little to nothing about what went on in such far-flung locations and naively believing what they were told. The necessary blood-lust was created which would serve The Lionheart well.

Misdirection is a related subject, sometimes called fake news these days. False stories designed to create an emotional response which will forward the plans of those creating it.
Take the naming of Greenland and Iceland for instance. It has been said that the person naming these two wished to misdirect the attention of would be speculators. He named the greenest island Iceland to dissuade speculators from looking there. Greenland is almost totally covered in ice and that’s where he desired to misdirect their attention.

In the field of geopolitics we find propaganda and the seeding of believable lies.
It has been admitted by Paul Wolfowitz, one of the most active neoconservatives urging multiple regime change wars that this was what was needed to create the influence to initiate a surge of support for the wars they wanted to wage. In their manifesto, ‘The New American Century’ the Neocons stated that what America needed was a new Pearl Harbor’ event to motivate people to desire war. They got 9/11.

When the U.S. needed a good enough reason to greatly escalate involvement in Vietnam the ‘Gulf of Tonkin Incident was used as a convenient excuse:

‘The Gulf of Tonkin incident was presented to the U.S. Congress on August 5, 1964, as two unprovoked attacks by North Vietnamese torpedo boats on the destroyers Maddox and Turner Joy of the U.S. Seventh Fleet and that led to the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which allowed President Lyndon B. Johnson to greatly escalate U.S. military involvement in the Vietnam War.’ (Encyclopedia Britannica)

‘In 2005, an internal National Security Agency historical study was declassified; it concluded that Maddox had engaged the North Vietnamese Navy on August 2, but that there were no North Vietnamese naval vessels present during the incident of August 4. The report stated, regarding the first incident on August 2:

‘At 1500G, Captain Herrick ordered Ogier's gun crews to open fire if the boats approached within ten thousand yards (9,150 m). At about 1505G, Maddox fired three rounds to warn off the communist [North Vietnamese] boats. This initial action was never reported by the Johnson administration, which insisted that the Vietnamese boats fired first.’ (Wikipedia)

Regarding Libya the excuse was a non-existent threat to kill 6,000 non-existent rebels fleeing to the city of Benghazi:

'The war against Libya is built on fraud. The United Nations Security Council passed two resolutions against Libya on the basis of unproven claims, specifically that Colonel Muammar Qaddafi was killing his own people in Benghazi. The claim in its exact form was that Qaddafi had ordered Libyan forces to kill 6,000 people in Benghazi. These claims were widely disseminated, but always vaguely explained. It was on the basis of this claim that Libya was referred to the U.N. Security Council at U.N Headquarters in New York City and kicked out of the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva.

False claims about African mercenary armies in Libya and about jet attacks on civilians were also used in a broad media campaign against Libya. These two claims have been sidelined and have become more and more murky. The massacre claims, however, were used in a legal, diplomatic, and military framework to justify NATO’s war on the Libyans.’ (Wikispooks)
These techniques follow the same pattern time after time.

Look here.
Be shocked.
Support us.
Support war.

As Noam Chomsky wrote, it’s all about manufacturing consent.

The elites want certain things. They know most people are ill-informed at best and mostly completely uninformed. They also know that mainstream media will act as a stenographic service to transmit the required message. Therefore attention is directed where it is wanted. The required consent is gained and the elites effect their plans.

Once the war is begun a one-sided report system takes effect. Activists, for instance in Ukraine, Syria, Russia, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Venezuela or wherever get to work creating the “news” that will be faithfully channeled to western audiences. Western politicians will pick them up and repeat them and so a wall-to-wall matrix of conditioning permeates every ear, eye and brain with an incessant narrative that spreads the wished for concept that we are fighting evil and that all possible means are required. Radio silence is the approach to those who the western elites wage war against. George Orwell’s vision of a totalitarian society where news is permanently altered to suit the needs of those in control is very accurately reflected in current western society when it comes to regime change.

The White Helmets in Syria is one of the most notorious and obvious examples of a regime change support mechanism. The entity is quite ingenious and incorporates multiple elements that are very effective in duping the somewhat uninformed by pressing their emotional buttons. Apparently heroic rescue squads save little children from the devastated homes bombed by the sadistically evil Syrian and Russian army. What could be better? Supply them with top class video equipment, the finances and logistics and connections to western mainstream media and you have an incredibly potent weapon for sustaining support for the war in Syria. Meanwhile block all communication from the other side with every means possible.

The tactics of misdirection, manipulation and demonization are many. Look to any conflict where western elites have an interest and you will find them. The CIA with its psychological teams creating counterfeit documents and stories to feed willing and/or unsuspecting “journalists”, MI6 doing the same, a plethora of NGOs such as the ‘National Endowment for Democracy (NED)’ that funnels $millions to activists worldwide including in Hong Kong, Xinjiang, and anywhere that subversion of regime change targets needs a helping hand. There are tens of thousands of staffers across the western world and also seeded within target nations who work night and day using whatever means are deemed necessary without any reference to what is moral or ethical.

These are the agents of chaos you see at work now.

You wonder why there is no diplomacy any more? Why dialogue and attempts to find agreements to thorny problems are a thing of the past? Why all the elites of the West do is assert blame, attack and threaten rather than seek discourse and a means to reach some compromise?

The peacemakers and diplomats of the West were either sacked, demoted, discarded or simply gave up the ghost after 9/11.

The West has been at war ever since, remains at war now and will remain at war until quarantined by the collapse of their economies and the rise of others.

Until then expect ever more misdirection, manipulation and demonization as this war reaches its ultimate and inevitable climax.

THE WESTERN GAME PLAN AGAINST RUSSIA

Western elites have honed reliable tactics over the years which have been most effective in undermining the governance of nations they wish to disrupt and control.

The tactics hardly differ from nation to nation and many of them were developed as far back as during World War Two and certainly during the Cold War. They say there is nothing new under the sun and in terms of espionage and the subversion of native states this is especially true.

The USA and UK are the most prolific nations when it comes to interference in the affairs of sovereign states at all levels and though it is not much spoken about they are quite unashamed about it.

Why is that?

The justification for why they can do what they do with impunity and other nations are labeled heinously criminal when accused of doing anything similar is quite easy to explain and understand.

No matter what accusation anyone may throw at western elites going back to every underhanded act of espionage, subversion, misinformation, assassination, coup or outright military attack stretching back 75 years it hardly ever appears to reaches its target.

Why is this?

The reason is a blanket meme that provides a complete gloss of immunity to western elites which is accepted by all the most powerful media organizations on the planet while being accepted also by every national government that are allies to the USA and all powers within its orbit.

What is the message of this meme?

The message of this all-pervasive  meme is that the West is the epitome of good governance with an almost sacred duty to discipline all lesser individuals, group and nations. This status automatically puts it above all other modes of good governance including international law.

Just as a judge presiding over a court case has unquestionable authority western elites constantly refresh the meme through all media forms that states their intentions never waver from being for the universal good of all and that questioning this status is clearly utterly inappropriate.

You won’t find western mainstream media doubting this meme or the good intentions of western elites when they go to war. Never. Ever. Not in the way that other nations’ intentions can be and are doubted. No matter how many civilian casualties may be incurred in any western war of choice you will never hear any outright condemnation. But during the height of the fighting in Syria, Russia was directly accused of attacking schools and hospitals with malice aforethought and no one so much as batted an eyelid. Only the West’s “enemies" can be judged so, condemned and made to pay a price. This is the West as judge and jury... and legally authorized executioner.

Western elites regard themselves as the most noble souls on the planet who unfortunately find they must do some largely unmentionable things to wrongdoers. This notion they ensure becomes a sub-consciously accepted truth and everything they do is imbued with this concept and channeled through every announcement, speech and western geopolitical news item as a given. It is purveyed universally as an accepted fact across the entire mainstream.

This “fact” has been delivered into every western brain with hypnotic regularity for decade after decade since the end of WWII. It is conveyed through every nuanced level and intimation of deference via each and every interview, speech and announcement. The conditioning of western audiences via this meme has been second to second and year to year in wraparound style from every quarter and the vast majority of westerners have accepted it as constituting everyday normality. Unquestioningly so.

This is the starting point at which the West proceeds to seek the undermining of other nations’ systems of governance, that the starting point is that nothing they do can possibly be wrong, immoral or unethical. It is all done for the common good of humanity. This is why the USA has not signed up to be subject to the International Criminal Court... for how could anyone else possibly deign to ever judge the USA? It can admit to “mistakes”, yes. But it can never allow itself to be found guilty.

When you consider you have a God-given duty to correct the rest of the world, a holy mission to look perpetually down from on high (from a shining Christian city on the hill) at the rascals, malcontents and reprehensible rogue elements below you then your task becomes clear. Elevating yourselves to that impossibly high status brings with it such great responsibilities where you can justify almost anything you do. Mere laws and the usual moral or ethical norms don't apply to you you believe and cannot be allowed to get in the way of your task or hinder you in the least.

Therefore, using terrorist proxies can be deemed necessary and therefore permissible. Telling any compellingly believable convenient lie also. Spreading misinformation becomes a valuable tool using a vast network of Reuters, BBC and other network staffers who are readily at your beck and call. Locating, training and funding dissidents inside target nations to create maximum chaos becomes a “good” deed to “fine” ends. The use of sanctions to undermine economies is another “good” deed designed to attain laudable goals. Slandering leaders and getting your allies to join in the chorus is seen as beneficial and worthwhile, something to be dressed up as a laudable act of solidarity.

And all this can be done under the universal western umbrella of a sanctified, universally blessed purity of purpose.

These or very similar tactics have been going on for thousands of years of course. Every time an enemy of some state or group of aligned states was identified the same disruption machine of total negativity was cranked up against them. From the top come the narratives for public consumption that keep the population stirred up, hate-fueled and in fear of the devils ‘over there’. Whenever possible dissident or plain greedy agents within the target nations or forces are used to create the maximum chaos and supplied with munitions to instigate sabotage. Anything and everything is deployed to weaken, and if possible, destroy the enemy. Bar none.

Western elites have been at war with Russia since at least 2007 when Vladimir Putin revealed that he saw a multi-polar world as democratic and a uni-polar world as dictatorial. It was unarguable. After the collapse of the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact the elites of the West, particularly those of the USA assumed the mantle of Global Governance. This was after all the abiding meme that had been lovingly nurtured and broadcast since the end of WWII, the West is Best and it maintains the lawful governance of the world and all within it as a sacred duty. No nation was welcome within that all-encompassing and self-asserting nobility of purpose unless it was fully subservient. The acknowledgement of your superiors had to be fulsome and sincere, fully acknowledging who was the boss and who served the wishes of the boss.

When Russia suffered a collapse unimaginable in scale every elite across the entire western world breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the prospect of an eternally weak Russia forever beholden to western experts and elites and the enormous influence they would have.

Putin said no. We’re not signing up to that future. We have a long and noble history. The Russian nation will be proud, noble and powerful once again. We won’t be lectured to as a wayward child, made to bow and scrape before any tyrant with a stick to beat us with if we are unruly. We will work together and gladly with other nations within a multi-polar world. But we will never be treated as an underling requiring to be obedient to any other nation’s random whim. This cannot in good conscience ever be contemplated as the future for Russia.

For this he became Public Enemy Number One in the West. A target for subversion and elimination. So Putin and Russia joined the long list of nations and individuals who were targets for regime change and subject to every dirty trick in the playbook long designed for that very purpose.

AMERICA’S INSTITUTIONAL INSANITIES

The elite political infrastructure of the USA along with its intelligence agencies, security analysts, national defense think tanks and those within the U.S. military industrial complex form a self-perpetuating fear machine that’s very lucrative for everyone involved. For the rest of the world, especially those nations in the regime change sights of all of the above, it creates a potential hell on Earth.

There is precious little real thinking involved when America’s insane elites consider questions of foreign policy, there is only a predictable knee-jerk reaction. Every rival economy or different system of governance is seen in terms of a military threat requiring an aggressive, perhaps military solution. This mindset appears totally fixed within the institutions involved and wholly impermeable to change.

Several factors feed into the nexus of fear, paranoia, threat and cold hard cash that fuel the process.

The overarching myth is of course the permanent concept within the USA of a God-given and highly exceptional national status that raises America up to the highest possible level of sanctity at which point it has the self-awarded right to judge all others. Any deviation from the American model is seen as an anomaly to be fixed, a rogue element requiring disciplining, a blot on the global landscape, a defect needing fixed and a potentially highly dangerous threat to the glorious purity and exalted status of the USA.

The inevitable institutional fascism and racism this engenders is surely obvious.

In Thirties America Hitler and the Nazi Party of Germany were hugely popular. So much so that 20,000 Americans gathered in Madison Square Garden on Monday, February 20, 1939, many of them dressed in Nazi uniforms to hear speeches lauding Der Fuhrer and denigrating his racist targets. This was only one of many indicators that deep levels of racism and fascism are fundamental characteristics within the American psyche.

‘After a procession of flag bearers to a stage decorated with swastika-adorned pennants, U.S. flags, and a portrait of George Washington, a German-accented man leads the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance. Kuhn steps up to the podium and casually remarks about how he is depicted as a "creature with horns, a cloven hoof, and long tail" by "the Jewish-controlled press." ... He begins to outline a program calling for a "socially-just, white, Gentile-controlled United States" and "Gentile-controlled labor unions, free from Jewish Moscow-directed domination." (Wikipedia: ‘A Night at the Garden’)

The early history of the USA set the scene for all that was to come in the context of inherent racism and fascism. The genocide perpetrated upon the original inhabitants were seen as lesser beings, dangerous non-Christian savages having no right to the land they had lived on for generations. Not long thereafter came the second indicator of what would eventuate into the fascistic and racist U.S. state of today, slavery. There can surely be no two more shameful foundation blocks for any nation. And yet the attitudes of that time which caused so much death, destruction and human misery still prevail as institutional modes of thinking among U.S. elites and much of the U.S. population today.

Those different to them are observed with suspicion, as a potential threat and requiring a belligerent stance with a view to gaining power over them and manipulating them or destroying them.

This is the prevailing institutional criminal insanity we see among U.S. elites today and which has existed within every U.S. elite going back all the way to the founding of the nation itself.

Not that fine words were not spoken then just as they are now. But these fine words belie the psychosis beneath, they are used as a perpetual fig-leaf to hide the paranoia and determination to come out on top that for them justifies all acts deceivingly termed ‘self-protection’. The same shallow patina of civilization is claimed for the most barbaric nation on Earth named every year as the most dangerous country on the planet in a global poll.

This myth of being exceptional, of being the holiest nation, pure in soul and intent, elevated by only the purest of all attitudes, motivations and systems jars monumentally with the perpetration of genocide and racism described above.  

But this myth permeates all else below. It permeates every aspect of American political life and extends deep into the concepts Americans firmly hold onto as a psychological prop allowing them to look down on all others and conceive themselves to have an inalienable right to change them by whatever means they choose.

The Military Industrial Complex of the USA could not thrive as it does without this myth. It could not sell its plans for new, multi-billion dollar weapons systems to the government without the notion that it was protecting the most exceptional nation on Earth, a nation that must never be under any threat as it carries the hope of God Himself to mold us all to His image.

Rank upon rank of individuals in coordinated groups constantly shore up the secondary myth of a perpetual threat to the most precious nation on the planet. Serried ranks of intelligence operatives, security analysts, think tank wonks and an endless array of specialists in creating the necessary fear that brings in the endless big bucks.

It is a self-perpetuating system whereby on a continual basis ever more than enough threat is created to keep the entire gargantuan gravy train running. The system extends well beyond the boundaries of the United States of course. Through myriad institutional connections its influence is felt throughout both western and eastern Europe. NATO is a prime vehicle for spreading this “necessary” fear with constantly renewed threats being created to suit the need for a compliant sheep-like response from European elites and populations. And you can imagine the treats experienced by European elites for bringing their nations into the fold.

The USA has sought and continues to seek the wrapping of the whole world in its dubious embrace spinning whatever lies are conceived to be most effective while never straying far from the big stick it can use to beat us into accepting that embrace at any moment.

Thus it has been until recent times. Aided by its primary simpering ally Britain these elites have sought to dominate and subjugate all nations across the planet that its power can permeate, undermine and bring into line, to make subservient and obedient to its will.

But those times are ending.

Two nations in particular are rebelling and demonstrating that they have the will and the economic power to resist. Those nations are of course China and Russia and it will be primarily China that ends the long history of the hugely detrimental effects U.S. institutional racism and fascism have had on our planet.

The era of western supreme dominance is ending. The period when the western powers could write their own propaganda history of their achievements is ending with it. There will be no more disregarding of their crimes. Even as their media elites try to ban any discussion of them in a cancel culture reminiscent of all fascistic cultures global access to the internet means others will continue to relay the facts. All of us should think how in the dark we would have been kept if there had been no Russia Today, no Max Blumenthal or John Pilger and all the others who communicate the other side of the story. If they had all be expunged and removed by those needing us to be conditioned by their own narratives where would we be now?

The corrupt elites of the West are losing control not only of the narrative but of their sources of power, both economic and political. They are losing what is today loosely called their diplomatic reach. In truth they have no diplomacy within them any longer. Since 9/11 they have made only demands in a war they are waging to stay relevant, stay dominant and continue their push for a total global reach that is disintegrating before their eyes.

We exist on the cusp of a new time. The old western order is dying and with its death a new era is rising that will not be in any way reliant on the brutality inherent in the dying empire’s insane institutions. The slate will be wiped clean of the old empire’s self-perpetuating paranoia based as it was on both a racist and fascistic outlook of us and them, the pure and the unclean, the superior and the inferior. A civilization is in prospect where tolerance of diversity, not hate of it are key. Agreements will be paramount, not aggression. Dialogue will be the way forward, not demands. A new warmth among sovereign nations safe from arbitrary attack and invasion will emerge to replace the constant threat of western wars of choice.

And America’s institutional insanity of vile racism and fascistic criminality will be forced back to its impotent mental cages in quarantine where at last it can no longer savage our world.

WESTERN DEMOCRACY & CAPITALISM ARE FAILING FAST

Democracy we are told is the one-size-fits-all political system. In fact, for western elites it is the mandatory system which nations will accept, “or else”. This dictatorial viewpoint and demand composes the signature theme song of every last one of the West’s regime changer elites. You can have any color as long as it’s black. You WILL have democracy whether it suits your culture or wishes... or not.

Why if it works so well, are those nations priding themselves most in having this most wondrous of systems, so riven by turmoil, constantly divided by polarized views and drowning in debt? What are we to judge the merits of democracy upon if not the circumstances we can easily observe where these nations tend always to take one step forward before promptly taking two or more steps back?

You only have to look at what a basket case the USA has been over the last nine months or so. Is it the sign of a successful, democratic nation that its police kill scores of unarmed people on its street or in custody each and every year? And yet the elites of the USA raise their hands in horror at the policing in Hong Kong where similar rioting took place with the West’s approval and yet not one single person died.

Is it the sign of thriving democracy when one sovereign nation can wage war on another without that nation lifting a finger against it? And this not once but several times. What democratic mandate allowed the United States to attack Iraq, Libya and covertly attempt to undermine Syria? Before these there was Yugoslavia. There was no democratic mandate to attack any of these nations. The populations of western nations hit the streets in their millions to protest against the proposed attack on Iraq in particular. To no avail. They were ignored. The elites of their nations had decided and that was that. A hundred thousand and more died. It was only later that we found out that all the assurances which were faithfully passed down from western political elites via the mass media elites, were lies.

Where is the democracy in a four year cyclical choose-the-clown hypocrisy, a lesser-of-two-evils farce with a knowledge that nothing will fundamentally change... except to get worse?

Corporate influencers with their parasitical lobby groups, racial and cultural influencers such as the Jewish Lobby and the revolving door political-corporate cartel of the military industrial complex decide things between them. There is no true democracy. There is only a sham piece of political theater, a circus of illusion and a propaganda sideshow where truth is the very first victim. And the everyday citizen should choose a way forward from that catalog of idiocy mixed with more than a dash of greedy ambition and eye to some personal advantage? Yeah, right.

Among the elites in question, those who have been sanctified by some version of “democracy”, everything is seen through the lens of their “perfection”. No self-criticism is required. They have set themselves up as the best of all possible systems and this group-thought filter is permanently attached in front of their mentality with not even a crack of independently ascertained reality allowed.

China has a system that works for its people and this is proven every time a survey is made of opinions there. Harvard did exhaustive research into Chinese attitudes to their government and came up with a 90% satisfied score for the communist administrators who plan for a better China each and every day that dawns. Change can come fast where it is perceived as vitally needed. Nothing need stand in the way. No endless bickering this way and that. And the satisfaction of the vast majority of Chinese is the indicator that they get things right most of the time.

Of course this doesn’t mean this system of government would work everywhere and in every culture. Which is why those running China have no intention to export their system anywhere and certainly not to force anyone to take it up. They are interested solely in making sure the Chinese people get the best service possible and have lifted 100 million Chinese out of abject poverty in doing so.

But the so-called democratically-elected elites of the West do indeed demand that all other nations must follow in their footsteps and that if they don’t then they will surely be infiltrated using covert campaigns against them where they are demonized and possible attacked militarily.

This is a sickness of the mind, the exceptional mentality of the a fascistic orientation. It is a race considering itself superior demanding obedience to their will and conformity with their wishes.

So we are left with the question, what is it to be a democratic state in the West? To encourage the people to exhibit obedience to their mass media in allowing it to coat their minds in the required narratives to allow their particular system to prevail and prevail over others? To set no limits on freedom within a confined space for conditioned populations where a limited anarchy can prevail to keep them occupied and confused while the fascistic elites above them are protected by their many arms of state?

China will rise to ever greater prominence as a trading nation with great influence within Europe both east and west. There can be no stopping this despite whatever new Cold War dinosaurs such as Trump’s Pompeo says or does. American influence in Europe and indeed round the world will wane as China’s increases. The net forward impulse will be toward tolerance of diverse cultures and respect for the sovereignty of nations. The western impulse to convert all divergent forms of governance to match their own will diminish and ultimately disappear completely. This will in majority be accomplished naturally and peacefully by the rise of China and will also be partially due to the continued economic rise and influence of the Russian Federation.

The so-called democratic system of western nations and those whose tradition has followed a similar path will undoubtedly remain. The Asian forms of political structures based as they are on a greater obedience to a recognized, respected and acknowledged authority will not transfer westward. Not unless outside forces of enormous threatening effect make them absolutely and recognizably necessary. In this respect I would ask you to imagine a situation even more dire than the effects of the present pandemic.

Only China with its central command structure, facility to plan, act and command counter measures quickly and effectively had any chance of dealing with it speedily enough to spare a protracted human and economic catastrophe.

If the effects of climate change begin to hit hard there will be a tendency to move toward this kind of economic and social structure merely to survive. The cost of maintaining the present western political and social systems which are completely unfit for purpose when it comes to such disasters as pandemics, let alone potentially catastrophic threats such as a long-term series of worldwide climate change catastrophes, should be obvious to all by now.

Whether you feel democracy is working will to a large extent be determined by where you stand in regard to the capitalist system and your social and economic status will most likely determine this. This gives western elites a natural incentive to support both whether they are in decline or failing or not. For them it is the system which has raised them to where they are now and like any such regime in power they will do almost anything to maintain it. This means fighting to weaken any emerging rival systems which we see them engaging in now against both China, Russia and nations not firmly aligned within the same framework as the western elites. This war to maintain patrician and economic power is being waged against all such rivals and potential rivals and their systems. Venezuela is one primary target as is Cuba. Nicaragua was waiting in the wings to be undermined at a later stage.

The game plan is a desperate one with the failing western nations within declining capitalist economies engage in a wrecking ball policy designed to create an undermining effect then takeover of resources to win more time against the primary rising power, China.

This game plan isn’t working. But it is all they have left. Their economies are running down, unable to sustain their massive debts, unable to increase their efficiency, relying more and more on technology and less and less on human input with the resulting social division and dissatisfaction. The suicidal answer is simply more of the same, less and less actual democracy, more and more coercion and an ever widening gap between the haves and the have nots which brings everyone into an ever increasing turmoil of dissidence, division and an inevitable and ongoing social chaos.

This is how things stand. The West is descending toward disunited societies tearing themselves apart. This while the East is gearing up to see life chances and standards of living rise without limit on as broad a scale across their largely unified communities as imaginable.

It’s easy to see which side of this increasingly divided world is losing and which is winning.

In the USA there was a promise made to each America, that if they worked hard they could achieve the American Dream. Most Americans now realize this is no longer the case. The chain letter Ponzi scheme that is the U.S. economy has run its course and the so-called democracy that was supposed to guarantee that dream for everyone has totally failed.

The western systems are now only working for those first recipients in what was a medium term hyper-capitalism Ponzi scam. These lucky participants reached the top of the golden tree first and, determined to stay there they’ve hauled the ladder they used to get there up with them. And it’s being hauled higher every single day now.

The hope of  a better life for all is shattering in a West where elite leaders cynically attempt to halt in their tracks nations where this hope is not only still alive but is well within sight.
