USA’s Terrible Overreach in This Our World From Biden’s Time

Ameen Izzadeen, in The Daily Mirror in Sri Lanka, 22 November 2024 …… where the title reads Biden’s legacy: Gaza genocide and now possible nuclear war in Europe” **

US Alternate Ambassador Robert Wood raises his hand to veto a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, during a United Nations Security Council meeting on Wednesday. AFP

Never has the world been so precariously on pins and needles as it is now, with Europe exposed to the threat of nuclear war, the West Asian region facing genocide, and the rest of the world uncertain about what to expect from the leadership change in the United States—a nation teetering on the brink of moral bankruptcy.

The Epitome of “EVIL” … Today’s Soulmates with Hitler

Brian Victoria

In an increasingly secular world, calling someone or something “evil” will seem to many as an anachronistic label, conjuring up as it does a reddish figure featuring a fiendish face and horns, pitchfork in hand, with wings and a tail. A truly dreadful and fearsome sight indeed!

Christians have traditionally viewed evil as a rebellion against God, embodied in the figure of “Satan” (aka Devil). Satan was identified as the cause of all suffering in the world.  Further, it was Satan’s fall from Heaven that illustrated the cosmic battle between good (God) and evil (Satan). As such, Satan existed as a malevolent force outside of ourselves, constantly attempting to entice us to accede to his wicked ways.

By comparison, in contemporary thought, evil is examined through psychological, social, and cultural lenses. Thus, evil can arise from one’s own psychological disorders, group dynamics or the sociopolitical/socioeconomic systems under which we live. No longer is it seen as a metaphysical or malevolent moral force lying outside of ourselves.

The “Deep State”– Threats to Democracy within Today’s Western States’its

Watch Alastair Crooke & Judge Napolitano in Serious Dialogue ….. on World Poltics & the Anti Democratic strands in Present Western States = https://www.youtube.com/live/mnm9Vzrpkrg

Judge Napolitano …. & …. Alastair Crooke

Reflections from “Observer in a Black Sea Port”

Why are democracies suddenly opposed to free speech and against democracy?

Very interesting argument about how Western democracies are attacking democracy,  shutting down free speech, attacking the first amendment of the US Constitution because the deep structures of the deep state are being challenged.

Totalizing “Control Rooms” in Every Western State …. Skewing ‘Democracy’

Observer in a Black Sea Port

At 6:02 Judge Napolitano asks Crooke “Is a wider war in the Middle East inevitable?”  ….. Crooke answers this question and then explains why.

He articulates the change that has taken place in Western politics, particularly in the democratic area which has become a “control room” that we don’t see, that is behind it. Even the President or the leader of any Western nation is just a figurehead and is not important any longer.  One figurehead can be removed and then another figurehead is elevated by the media and becomes the new figurehead.  But behind it lies “the control room” which is operating this in a new form of politics which Crooke calls “the whole of state politics” which means there has to be ideological alignment, not just across the party, but among NGOs, the financial world, all of the state apparatus,  the media — all of this has to be the same.

John Mearsheimer has provided the world with an insightful analysis on Israel, Netanyahu, and the US Rules Based Order.

SEE …. LISTEN … to Prof. John J. Mearsheimer: Netanyahu’s Grave Mistakes” … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4opzJiXAz0
Thus inspired …. THEODORE K’s THOUGHTS:  “Netanyahu has no interest in peace. His goal is genocide of the Palestinians, to make Gaza uninhabitable,  to expand Israel into Gaza and the West Bank, as the US cheer him on to the tune of the Rules Based Order – the “Rules Based International Order” Australia supports and keeps ranting on about.

 The National Endowment for Democracy exposed as a CIA Branch

C. K. Watt

 The National Endowment for Democracy has been exposed today in a cache of silly letters and emails released today.  If you want to better understand what a nefarious illegal corrupt outfit the NED is and the weird people working for them, and the extent they will go to conceal the fact that it is a CIA cutout, then it is worth spending a little time reading the emails and letters released today.
Read a collection of the NED files exclusively obtained by The Grayzone here, ……………………………………………………………………………..

SOME OTHER ASIDES:

* the Dalai Lama is a long time CIA asset. He’s on the CIA payroll.
* The NED headquarters is just a few blocks from the White House.

The Flawed Foundations of the West’s War Programme in the Ukraine

“Uatu” — A Nostradamus Today

When war for profit meets war for strategic defense! “Precision beats mass” and “one shot, one kill” vs precision, mass and industrial scale warfare. The U.S. military industrial complex is profit oriented; they manufacture what sells. Russia’s MIC is not; they manufacture what the military says it needs in accord with Russian military doctrine. What they manufacture must work.
