THE WESTERN WORLD HAS BEEN IN THE CLUTCHES OF THE AMERICAN CONTROL SINCE AT LEAST 1917.

THE AMERICAN HEGEMONY EVOLVED FROM THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION OF 1776 REJECTION OF ENGLISH COLONIALISM, AND THROUGH MANY FLUCTUATIONS LIKE THE COLOURS ON A SOAP BUBBLE, AMERICA EVOLVED INTO A FULL-BLOWN CENTRIC MASTER OF THE WESTERN WORLD, LIKE AN ENGLISH COLONIALISM, WITH SOME NUANCES. 

WE HAVE FOLLOWED ALL THESE EVOLUTIONARY EVENTS INVOLVING MAINLY WARS AND DECREES, LIKE THE MONROE DOCTRINE, TO MAKE PEOPLE SUBMIT, WHICH LED TO TODAY’S AMERICAN DISINTEGRATION OF ITS UNIPOLARITY INTO OTHERS SEEKING MULTIPOLARITY — MAINLY THROUGH RUSSIA AND CHINA. 

THIS DISINTEGRATION IS RESENTED BY THE AMERICAN EMPIRE… THE AMERICAN HEGEMONY, A DAUGHTER OF THE ANGLOSAXON COLONIAL HEGEMONY, HAD BECOME AN EMPIRE — A MILITARY, A CULTURAL AND A FINANCIAL EMPIRE — NOW RESISTED BY NATIONS THAT HAVE THE DESIRE OF INDEPENDENCE…

MANY DECENT ANALYSTS SEE THE PRESENT UKRAINE “PROBLEM” AS THE MAIN TURNING POINT OF THE AMERICAN DEMISE, THOUGH THE AMERICAN EMPIRE IS TRYING ALL THE TRICKS IN THE BOOKS TO PREVAIL IN THIS CONFLICT, MAINLY THROUGH ITS PROPAGANDA AND PSYCHOLOGICAL MANIPULATION MACHINES — THAT COULD LEAD TO THE ULTIMATE MADNESS OF A NUCLEAR CONFLICT, IN WHICH EUROPE WOULD HAVE FRONT SEAT. 

THE EMPIRE HAD BEEN SUCCESSFUL TIL — ACCORDING TO “THE END OF HISTORY” PROFESSOR FRANCIS FUKUYAMA — THE FINANCIAL CRISIS OF 2007-09…

AS AN ASIDE, WE HAVE MADE THE OUTRAGEOUS SUGGESTION THAT CHINA HAD INSTIGATED THIS CRISIS AND WE STICK BY IT… WE THINK THAT WE ARE 99 PER CENT CORRECT. THIS WAS THE PINPRICK THAT BLEW UP THE AMERICAN BUBBLE, LIKE IN SLOW MOTION… IT STARTED THE DISINTEGRATION OF THE TRUST IN AMERICA — A TRUST CAREFULLY CULTIVATED WITH GUNS, CASH AND CULTURAL “CHEWING GUMS”, THAT APPEARED AS WHAT IT WAS: AN ARTFUL DECEPTION DESIGNED TO CONTROL — AND STEAL. THERE ARE STILL NATIONS READY TO FALL FOR THE TRICKS, WHILE OTHERS WANT TO JOIN THE OTHER SIDE — THE MORE DEMOCRATIC BRICS…

THE AMERICAN EMPIRE HAD BECOME FASCIST. NOT ONLY THIS, SINCE AFTER WW2, THE AMERICANS CULTIVATED THE NAZIS IN GERMANY, AND IN UKRAINE, TO DEFEAT “COMMUNISM”, I.E. RUSSIA. 

ANY DIRTY TRICKS WERE USED BY THE EMPIRE, WHILE SENDING AMERICAN TOURISTS IN SHORTS AND HAWAIIAN SHIRTS TO VISIT EUROPE LIKE LITTLE CAESARS SURVEYING A CONQUERED DECAYING CONTINENT.

AND CONQUERED EUROPE HAS BEEN, THROUGH THE EMPIRE MARSHALL PLAN AND INSTALLATION OF MILITARY BASES, EVERYWHERE — UNTIL THE GENERAL, GENERAL DE GAULLE, CHARLES, KICKED THE US OUT IN 1964… BUT THIS WAS AN ISOLATED CASE. THE FRENCH KNEW THAT THE AMERICAN FASCISM HAD REPLACED THE GERMAN FASCISM, WHILE THE REST OF EUROPE WAS MORE AFRAID (MADE TO BE BY THE AMERICAN PROPAGANDA AND PSYCHOLOGICAL MACHINES) OF THE RUSSIAN COMMUNISM… BY THE TIME OF THE SARKOZY PRESIDENCY, THE FRENCH HAD FORGOTTEN. PROPAGANDA IS POWERFUL. IT IS DESIGNED TO MAKE YOUR BELIEVE ESCARGOTS, BEEF BOURGUIGNON, Veau en papillote AND FROG-LEGS ARE INFERIOR TO MCDONALD’S…

MEANWHILE, ALL THE EUROPEAN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS WERE SLOWLY MODIFIED TO SUIT THE AMERICAN “MODEL” OF GREED. THE US DOLLAR HAD TO BE KING. THE US DOLLAR WAS FASCIST — A TOOL OF THE AMERICAN FASCISM. MEANWHILE THE PROPAGANDA, HEADQUARTERED IN THE PENTAGON AND ITS OFFICES IN HOLLYWOOD, WOULD GLORIFY THE EMPIRE AND GIVE YOU PATS ON THE BACK FOR BEING A GOOD DOG… SOMETIMES, IT WAS A BELLY RUB.

FOR AUSTRALIA, THIS BELLY RUB COMES AT A PRICE… AND PENNY WONG’S “FLATTITUDES” ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE OF THE PREVIOUS PRIME MINISTER, I FORGOT HIS NAME (AH YES IT WAS … SCOTTY MORRISON) IN REGARD TO INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS, APART FROM HER MONOTONOUS LOWKEY HUBRISTIC VOICE. 

WE’RE PAYING NOW FOR FUTURE DELIVERIES OF SUBS THAT MAY SINK (OR WILL BE OBSOLETE) THE DAY THEY LEAVE THEIR CONSTRUCTION SITES.

AS WELL, LIKE GERMANY, WE ARE HELD UP FOR RANSOM WITH AMERICAN MILITARY BASES, INCLUDING THE CONTROVERSIAL PINE GAP, WHICH WHITLAM WANTED TO EITHER CONTROL OR SHUT DOWN, POSSIBLY A STANCE THAT GOT HIM FIRED BY THE CIA — VIA THE LONDONIAN CROWN…

AUSTRALIA, LIKE AMERICA, IS A COUNTRY BASED ON CONQUERED LANDS — AND THAT’S THAT. THIS CONQUERING SPIRIT, DILUTED WITH ACTS OF BRAVERY FROM “OUR” SOLDIERS PLASTERED ON WAR MEMORIALS FOR USELESS WARS MAKE US FORGET THE UNDERLYING HISTORY. 

SO, HOW IS THE AMERICAN EMPIRE GOING TO COLLAPSE? IS THE AMERICAN EMPIRE GOING TO COLLAPSE, OR SHRINK TO A LITTLE SPACE OF WHITE MEN, NOW DRESSED IN RAINBOW COLOURS? OR FIGHT LIKE DEMON IN HEAVEN?

AMERICANS LOVE COMPETITION, BUT HATE COMPETITORS…

WHOEVER ORGANISED THE RETREAT FROM KABUL SHOULD HAVE BEEN COURT-MARSHALLED — OR SENT TO PRISON. NOT. THE GUY IN CHIEF WAS BIDEN AND HE IS HAILED AS A GOD DESPITE NOT BEING ABLE TO STAND UP AND UTTER TWO WORDS THAT MAKE SENSE. HE’S BEEN DECLARED AN OLD FOGGY WHO CAN’T REMEMBER ANYTHING…

LUCKILY, BIDEN DOES NOT RUN AMERICA… UNLUCKILY, THE PENTAGON DOES. AND THIS SPELLS MORE TROUBLES THAN PIRAÑAS IN A SWIMMING POOL.

AMEN…

SO HERE ARE A FEW ARTICLES:

By Francis Fukuyama: senior fellow at Stanford University

The horrifying images of desperate Afghans trying to get out of Kabul after the Western-backed government collapsed in August seemed to signify a major juncture in world history, as America turned away from the world. Yet in truth, the end of the American era had come much earlier. The long-term sources of American weakness and decline are more domestic than international. The country will remain a great power for many years, but just how influential it will be depends on its ability to fix its internal problems, rather than its foreign policy.

The peak period of American hegemony lasted less than 20 years, from the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 to the financial crisis of 2007-09. The country was dominant in many domains of power—military, economic, political and cultural. The height of American hubris was the invasion of Iraq in 2003, when it hoped to remake not just Iraq and Afghanistan (invaded two years before), but the whole Middle East. America overestimated the effectiveness of military power to bring about deep political change, even as it underestimated the impact of its free-market economic model on global finance. The decade ended with its troops bogged down in two counterinsurgency wars, and a financial crisis that accentuated the inequalities American-led globalisation had brought about.

Part I. For many outside the US, news that America’s era of supremacy was over might produce more relief than regret.

As any recent poll will show you, the US reign of power has not been a popular one. America is more mistrusted and more reviled, in more places around the world, than it has ever been in its history.

But while it is clear that the international environment—especially in the Middle East—has shifted in ways that constrain US power today, I do not believe it is proper to call 2006 the year that America lost its supremacy in international affairs. In fact US supremacy was never as total, or as meaningful, as either its admirers or its enemies claimed. What has diminished over the past few years has not been US power itself, but rather our perceptions of that power and what it can do.

Nowhere have the limits of American hegemony been more clearly on display, and with more serious results, than in the Middle East over the past four years. Iraq is the area where the real limits of American hegemony are most evident. Since the US and its allies invaded Iraq and overthrew the government of Saddam Hussein, America’s position in the region has shifted from advantageous to disadvantaged, from nearly unstoppable to deeply restrained.

The decline in America’s ability to influence events in the Middle East has not come about because America’s military capabilities or economic capacity have declined. Rather, American influence in the region has been sapped by the failure of efforts at political reconstruction in Iraq, by war-weariness at home, by relative neglect of the Arab-Israeli peace process, and by the effect of US regional policies on the influence of Iran. The result of these developments is the emergence of a new fault line in the region.

In the Middle East today, we can see an emerging struggle for power between an Iranian-led bloc of mainly Shia actors, and a bloc of Sunni forces led by the Arab states of Saudi Arabia and Egypt. The sectarian killing in Iraq has fed, and been fed by, this broader regional contest. But the conflict is not as simple as the one described by US President George W. Bush in announcing his surge strategy for Iraq, which he called a conflict between radicals and moderates. Each bloc encompasses both moderates and extremists, severely complicating the effort to pursue a coherent US strategy to bolster moderates at the expense of extremists.

It took a war to expose this new sectarian fault line. For some time Arab leaders in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan had been warning that a “Shiite crescent” was spreading its influence across the region. Iraq’s descent into civil war and Iran’s defiant pursuit of nuclear weapons fed these Arab concerns. But it was only in 2006 that these leaders rang alarm bells: when Hezbollah provoked a confrontation with Israel in Lebanon, and when the Assad regime in Damascus blocked Egypt from organizing a prisoner exchange to calm tensions in the Gaza Strip.

I REPEAT:

DESPITE WHAT THE WESTERN BOFFINS CLAIM, PUTIN IS A MAN OF PEACE AND FAIRNESS, WHILE NAPOLEON WAS A MAN OF WAR AND LOOTING. BOTH HAVE HAD TO STRUGGLE AGAINST THE ENGLISH HEGEMONY... NAPOLEON FAILED. PUTIN IS WINNING AND WE (THE WEST) HATE HIM FOR THIS.... THINK ABOUT IT...

Meanwhile THE ANGLOSAXON/AMERICAN HEGEMONY DEFEATED NAPOLEON AND HITLER (THE RUSSIANS DID BOTH ACTUALLY), BUT THE AMERICAN EMPIRE SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DEFEAT THE RUSSIAN/CHINESE COMBO... THE AMERICAN EMPIRE WILL TRY HARD NONETHELESS — USING AUSTRALIA AS A BARKING DOG PROXY, FIRST....
