One of the biggest
problems in failing to learn from history is people like the leaders
of the US and the Neocons lead the nation into yet another fiasco,
failure and more death, destruction and economic harm. If I had to
sum up all I know and reduce it to two sentences it would be these.
America has a major public relations problem due to failed leadership
and a defective business plan. Additionally, regardless of what
Washington DC thinks they are not qualified to lead even America,
much less the rest of the world.
That is their
underlying agenda they hide behind all of the double-speak, weasel
words, photo ops and contrived policies... and worst of all the
outright premeditated lies. All for the Glory of the American
Empire and it has failed and is entering its final death throes live
on international TV and every media outlet regardless of form.
High-minded DC
phrases like ‘The Grand Chessboard’ or ‘geostrategic
imperatives’ are reduced down to meaningless drivel when this
simple fact is looked at for what it is. The US agenda is not about
democracy or freedom; it is about subjugation and control on who gets
to line their pockets at the expense of everyone else. The
corporatization of government is by its very definition fascism; not
democracy, not freedom or liberty.
I am not looking
forward to hearing all of the whining, histrionics and finger
pointing of blame that will emanate out of Washington DC as they
attempt to do the Post Game Show and pretend it is not the
Post-Mortem Autopsy of how they killed America. That having to face
a rightfully angry US citizenry might totally redefine the
psychological clinical diagnosis of transference to avoid being
recognized as the doers that killed America due to greed, malfeasance
and wall-to-wall nitwits in Congress and the White House.
One of the mottos I
have used during my professional career can best be cited as a quote
from the bestseller book “Megatrends” by John Naisbitt in the
early 1980’s.
“It
is impossible to have strategic planning in the absence of strategic
vision.”
America has one
broken record agenda and it is a failed business plan with no
strategic vision that is honorable. They have no worthy strategic
vision or even a functional business plan. Once the fear of
communism evaporated they busily went to work to create the next
boogeyman as Islamism and vilifying an entire religion that possessed
vast reserves of oil and natural gas in other non-Christian nations.
That dovetailed so
well into the Zionist Israel desires that even the Christians forgot
what ‘thou shalt not kill’ means and just blindly followed the
evil.
They prove that
every day in Washington DC and mix it up with so many lies and
intentional misstatements of fact that the average American
mistakenly thinks it is just the routine bipartisan bickering of Left
versus Right, Democrat versus Republican. As they proved in
Afghanistan everything has to be a secret. As they proved in Iraq
they are not averse to just making things up and falsifying facts and
intelligence to start a completely contrived Unjust War of
aggression.
I wish that Left –
Right bickering is all there was to it but… it is a cloak for a
much darker agenda that has also failed and has wrecked what once was
a great nation worthy of being looked up to as a beacon of freedom
and liberty. In current form, America is evolving to be one of the
least free nations on the face of this planet and there is a reason
that is so.
The Neocons, the
Zionists, the Fascists that have seized power want it that way and
they frankly could not care less about your life, health, financial
security, liberty or freedom. They broke the engines of progress and
job creation to chase after an unattainable goal.
They forgot that in
this post-USSR world there are now multipolar factions including EU,
South America, China, Russia and India. This is no longer a unipolar
world where the USA has the right to pretend to be the Boy Scout that
offers to protect everyone else from communism. The USA is no
longer the sole Superpower and their lack of progress as such in
Afghanistan and Iraq raises the question if it ever was a Superpower
worthy of such designation.
They have plenty of
firepower in the form of agendas and political lies, but the military
Shock & Awe and trillions of dollars blown on nothing leaves a
lot open to question about the sanity or lack thereof in Washington
DC. I wonder at times if any of them can even read a map or have
even the foggiest clue what the words failure and bankrupt mean.
They just re-labeled
the enemy and kept pushing in the wrong direction.
Einstein is credited
with the quote that “insanity is doing the same thing over and over
again expecting different results.” According to that genius and
quote it is reasonable to deduce that Washington DC is truly insane
because they do the same things over and over again and get the same
result of failure.
For all of this talk
about democracy, self-determination, rule of law and freedom being
American values, the USA really does not stand for any of those lofty
ideals any more. The moral compass of America wanders around just
about everywhere except True North and is nothing to hold upon high
or emulate.
I hear plenty of ‘DC
Speak’ about corruption in foreign lands, but barely any looking
into the mirror to come to grips with the corruption right there in
DC, Wall Street, major corporations, etc.
There is no threat
to America in Ukraine, South China Sea, and the Caspian Basin or
anywhere else that DC deems it needs to stick their nose and opinions
into the matter. There is no nationally strategic interest
whatsoever in most of the areas the US stirs things up because it
cannot get its way.
The US tries to
control the conversation to the point that merely saying ‘no’ as
a God given right gets a nation or person labeled a terrorists by
these terrorists in Washington DC.
The late Will Rogers
made many funny and cute remarks about Washington DC. It was from
watching and paying attention that he became such an astute observer
of the fallacy and folly that is Washington DC. It has reached the
point that even the corniest of Carnival Shows is high level
entertainment compared to what DC pretends is leadership.
It is legitimate and
in fact a right of citizenship to question whether this person in the
Oval Office and the 535 over on Capitol Hill can even lead hungry
animals to food.
For all of their
pomp, pretense and circumstance they forgot two valuable lessons from
history. First, all glory is fleeting. Secondly, all empires
collapse when their subjects realize that the promise of peace and
freedom was a cruel hoax and at their expense as forfeiture of
liberty, progress and financial security.
The USSR learned
very fast when it was crumbling that there is no such thing as a
little bit of freedom. Apparently the citizens of America are going
to have to re-learn what freedom and liberty really mean for both are
absent in America right now.
These are but a few
of the many quotes Will Rogers is remembered for:
I found a post on an
arcane blog that defines the problem very well as to how to really
look at this nation named United States of America and thinks it is
the definition of democracy and freedom:
“People
around the world view the US as the greatest threat to peace;
voted three times more dangerous than any other country. The data
confirm this conclusion:
The
categories of crime for armed attacks outside US treaty limits of law
are:
Post-USSR,
I agree that the greatest threat to peace and prosperity on the face
of this planet is the United States of America as the agenda is put
forth by Washington DC. The business plan is that broken, that
failed, that futile to even keep up the lies any more pretending
otherwise.
How
do you feel about that America? That most of the rest of the world
considers that Washington DC is the biggest threat to peace and
prosperity on the face of this planet. Is that the national symbol,
opinion or legacy you wish now rather than the Statue of Liberty that
says on the main plaque written by the poet Emma Lazarus:
“Give me your
tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”
The days that those
words had real meaning have been dead for over 20 years. The past
 Presidents and every Congress during the same period sold out such values and morals, for their own gain and their elite political backers and insiders. There has been a coup d’etat and happened while Americans were sitting on butts and watching the TV.
Most of the 6
billion plus people on this planet prefer the freedom they have in
their own nation over the subjugation in the United States where it
seems Americans no longer know the difference between tyranny and
freedom / liberty. There is nothing about the ‘star spangled
freedom’ America advertises that is any better than the other
nations where freedom actually has more meaning now.
That is the simple
fact of the matter and one that Americans need to come to grips with
before it is too late.
Look
around you America and see the decay and decrease in the quality of
life for what it is. There is no outside threat to America that is
responsible for that demise. The greatest threat the USA has are
those enemies within our gates that perpetuate exactly what General
Douglas MacArthur warned us about long ago. He stated two things
that Americans need to pay very close attention to and recognize who
the true enemies are:
“I
am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much
because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious
forces working from within.” General Douglas MacArthur
“It
is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country
is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially
induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant
propaganda of fear.” General Douglas MacArthur
Next
time you see or hear the chest thumping about how great America is,
see the facts as they are, not as DC wants you to believe. America
is in very deep trouble due to the failures of Washington DC.
Afghanistan
is a lost war as is Iraq. And… no America, we did not win the
Vietnam War either. The petrodollar supremacy is ending and when
that becomes fact of life the US quality of life will take a huge
nose dive.
America
is not the greatest nation on Earth anymore. It is 36th
in math, 28th
in science, 24th
in literacy, leads the world in crime and percentage of people
incarcerated per capita, has the largest debts and largest trade
imbalances, and is producing less and less each year in terms of
manufactured goods.
What
America is definitely #1 in are debts, political lies, making up wars
and instability, terrorism, and spending more time meddling in the
affairs of other nations than fixing what is wrong with America.
The
petrodollar is collapsing as more and more nations choose their
sovereign right to trade in their own currencies. China has
announced it is not in their best interest to hold so much in dollars
and US Treasury bond debt with a nation that is fiscally
irresponsible.
Many
nations are now stock piling Euros and Chinese yuan and reducing
their exposure to the continuous decline of the US dollar. Russia
and China are trading direct in their own currencies as are India,
UAE and many other nations that now see that the dollar decline has
set in and nothing is going to change it until Washington DC changes.
And… I mean real change, not the lip service and 4th
rate theater DC calls leadership.
How
do I define change it would take? Clean out the White House, the US
Senate and US House. I do not think I would run out of fingers on my
two hands as to how many of the 100 in the Senate and 435 in the
House deserve a second chance. Wipe the slate clean, start over and
come up with a business plan that works. The DC business plan you
are looking at is a failure.
The
late rock star Frank Zappa summed up the problem in one memorable
quote:
“Politics
is the entertainment division of the military – industrial
complex.”
What
is missing is a real political discourse about how deep the hole is
and what it is going to take to fix what is wrong with America. I
for one am not holding my breath because even as the next major
election cycle is building up for another multi-billion dollar circus
the potential candidates are already making the same mistakes that
got America into this mess to begin with and already there is chest
puffing, thumping and rhetoric about who the US is going to attack
next.
The
only thing DC needs to attack is itself and fix the huge mess they
have made being such gutless wonders.
Get
this into your head America. What is attacking and destroying America
is the lack of leadership and its total disdain for the US
Constitution, rule of law, your freedom, your liberty and the rights
of peoples in other nations to choose what they want.
Most
of them take a close look at America and now realize they have better
ideas. The battle to fix America is within its 50 states, and
purging what the real problems are starting at 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue and Capitol Hill.
