As a UK academic, this is one of the most sensible honest articles I have ever read. The USA still holds onto a 19C frontiersman paradigm, viewing other countries as being of 'strategic interest' and fodder to feed an evolving territorialism, & empty profits; If countries kept to their own borders, wars needn't happen. USA may somehow believe they're the biggest & best in the world in everything, satisfying an ingrained sense of imagined superiority, but it imposes this also on the rest of lesser humanity by interfering constantly abroad, for ruthless exploitation. What one sows, one shall reap..

As a UK academic, you seem to be as badly uniformed as everybody else in that learned fraternity.

The "USA" is not a nation, looking at other nations, it is a corporation - registered in Costa Rica, I believe - looking at other corporations, and seeking to reduce their profitability whilst increasing its own. Brandon is simply a cipher, although he seems to be the CEO of the corporation; the real chief executives hang out in the City of London, and as the wife of the first member of the dynasty stated, "If my sons did not want wars, there would be no wars."

Wars are exceptionally profitable for the corporation, as both sides buy its weapons and borrow the fake money to do so, which they must then pay back with interest - or better, surrender ownership of national assets, which can then be used to exploit the captive slaves on the plantation. Additionally of course, millions can kill each other, which the "holy book" of these people state is the highest form of achievement and good.

The US Federal Government has been killing its own people for a long time, but certainly the last two years have been record breaking. It finally became a full on overt tyrannical state around 2007, and it is as much a danger to its own citizens as it is to the world. They stole from us, and they are continuing to do so. Ukraine has been a significant source of illicit revenue for these criminals, and that is an irrefutable fact. Biden is on record bragging about it, and pretty much his entire family should be in a penitentiary.

The regime will do anything to cover their tracks, and the tracks go all the way around the globe. McConnell is a key player in maintaining the criminal status quo in what is a one party two party system. He betrayed the president and helped bring Biden Regime (a reconstitution of Obama Regime) back to power. He is supposed to be the leader of the opposition, but he rarely presents opposition when it truly matters, and there is always a deal going down when he does present opposition. Kentucky should be deeply ashamed of this man.

There has never been a more evil empire than the one who brought us biowarfare against the entire world, and this was done by the US Federal Government, primarily to bring Biden Regime to power.

The only hope we have here is a breakup of the states.

A lot of America's hysterical reaction to Putin is because they know in their heart of hearts that they are losing their place as the global top dog. They are like we Brits in 1956 in the Suez crisis. We too thought we were still top dog and invaded Egypt to seize the Suez canal (I know right?). We were swiftly disabused. The whole world is sick of American bullying. Not just Putin, but China, India and Saudi too.

Again, this post shows the delusion that everybody seems to labour under, which is that there are such things as "nations" like Britain or the US.

Rather, there is a transnational cabal composed largely of ((( bankers ))) and all those whom their money buys, such as McConnell, and they have had this financial control, and thus supreme control in the affairs of all "nations" since 1913, when the "Fed" was created.

WW2 was not a conflict between nations, but rather, a conflict between two financial systems as to which would rule the world; one to enslave, and the other to liberate.

And as even the treasonite Churchill stated, "We slaughtered the wrong pig", and thus have to deal with the consequences of that wrongful action, whose effects are clearly visible to the trained eye in the affairs of today.

The empire uses war, the threat of war, or economic warfare to benefit the ultra-wealthy who crave only to exploit other country's resources. The empire cloaks its interventions in political terms, but the essential force behind everything our country does vis-a-vis foreign policy is economic exploitation. It's that simple, and has been that simple since at least the Spanish-American War, when we embarked on world domination and exploitation. Nothing has changed since then. The fact that TPTB find exorbitant profit in war, a profit they can't make anywhere else (until the clot shots, that is) guarantees that, as long as these oligarchs are calling the shots, war will continue in perpetuity. Who knew that a country that many see as the "shining light on the hill" is really the most prolific sponsor and perpetrator of global terrorism?

Vasko could you do an interview on this article on the ThinkingSlow YouTube channel - for good interviews (Professor Bhakdi) we have 200k+ views - even though YouTube is suppressing the search results. Please let me know via ThinkingSlow1@gmail.com

Many thanks - here is some material that we have already done on this subject.

Yet again, this writer is pushing a fake narrative and trying to gaslight his readers.

He has been told about doing this before; and not only he, but his favourite "geopolitical expert" whom yet again he is trying to make us subscribe to.

Let me be specific, and quote him,

"We saw what happened during the Cuban missile crisis when the Soviets were trying to bring military installations to Cuba. The United States threatened both Cuba and Russia and was ready to start a nuclear war if necessary to halt that undertaking. The United States was, of course, justified in its demands then."

The US was NOT "justified in its demands then."

This is because it had placed - as the writer acknowledges himself - its missiles in Turkey, thus directly threatening the USSR; and the soviet RESPONSE was to put missiles in Cuba as a quid pro quo.

The writer states that neither he nor his favourite professor "have time" to mention this vitally important CONTEXTUAL ASIDE, but it is increasingly looking like a gaslighting operation, as in the clear cold light of day, we would then see the truth, which Meirsheimer doesn't like either, as one of his famous books is called "The Noble Lie."

Lies are never noble, and in fact lying is explicitly forbidden by God.

You are misconstruing what this piece and prof Mearsheimer try to say. The US was justified in its demand that the Soviets do not place weapons in Cuba, and the Soviets were justified in demanding that the Americans remove the Jupiter missiles from Turkey. It is also true that the US provoked the by placing the missiles in Turkey. It is not possible or necessary to mention this in every piece. Not mentioning it does not impact the point of this essay. You seem to be over hung on this point.

I am not "overhung on this point", because it is extremely important to get the context right, and the context is that the US was not justified, but hypocritical, in its demands of the soviet leadership.

An entire historical genre has been constructed and sold around the idea that Kennedy was a hero for resisting what is sold as "soviet aggression," whereas the truth is exactly the opposite.

The fact that this crucially important contextual point is never, or rarely, made, when it is not difficult to do that, suggests that another agenda is being played out here, and that agenda relies upon gaslighting the readership, rather than illuminating them.

As I mentioned, Meirsheimer seems to be central in presenting this gaslit view of history, in line with his equally dangerous idea that there is such a thing as a "noble lie."
