Strategic Culture – Dec 22, 2023
American President Joe Biden likes to talk about “inflexion points” when he is lecturing about world affairs and the supposed superiority of the United States. This year is indeed an inflexion point.
It was the year that the entire world saw the truly hideous and criminal nature of U.S. power.
Washington’s fuelling of the futile conflict in Ukraine and the despicable slaughter in Gaza is a wake-up call for the entire world. The United States stands barefaced and grotesque as the primary purveyor of war. There can be no doubt about that. For many it is shocking, scandalous and frightening.
Tragically, it seems, for the world, every year’s end is an occasion to witness and lament conflicts, wars and suffering over the preceding 12 months. Often the causes of wars and suffering are seemingly unfathomable.
However, this year seems to be unique. The year ends with a horrendous massacre in Gaza that is unprecedented and perpetrated by Israel with the full support of the United States. The scale of deliberate mass killing in Gaza makes it a genocide. The fact that this abomination is occurring at Christmas time when the world is supposed to celebrate the divine birth of Jesus Christ – the Prince of Peace – in the very place where he was born some 2,000 years ago makes the abomination all the more profane and damning.
What is particularly wretched is that the heinous destruction of children is happening in full view of the world. There is no remorse or pretence. It is full-blown premeditated murder done with cruelty and sickening impunity.
Virtually the whole world is horrified by the devastating, relentless violence and absolute violation of international law. The butchery by the Israeli regime cannot in any way be rationalized by the previous attack on Israel by Palestinian militants on October 7. Those killings by Hamas have been cynically used as a pretext for the subsequent and ongoing annihilation of Palestinian civilians.
This genocide could not happen without the crucial support of the United States for the Israeli regime. Financially, militarily and diplomatically, Washington is sponsoring the horror in Gaza as well as the Occupied West Bank.
This week saw the U.S. once again obstructing calls at the United Nations for a ceasefire and the urgent supply of humanitarian aid to more than two million people. The World Food Program has declared a catastrophic famine in the coastal enclave after more than 70 days of bombing and blockade by the Israeli regime. More than 20,000 people – mainly women and children – have been slaughtered with up to 7,000 more missing, presumably dead. Israeli troops are carrying out mass executions of terrified and traumatized human beings, according to UN rights monitors.
The United States is arming Israel to the hilt and enabling it. U.S. President Joe Biden has pointedly refused to join international demands for a ceasefire. The United Nations has voted by an overwhelming majority for a cessation of the violence. Washington has repeatedly rejected the world’s pleas because the Biden administration is obscenely amplifying Israeli lies and distortions. “Unwavering, unshakable support” is how the White House arrogantly boasts about it without a hint of shame that it is self-indicting.
Tens of thousands of tonnes of munitions have been flown to Israel to carry out “indiscriminate bombing” (Biden’s own admission). One-tonne bunker-buster bombs have been dropped deliberately on refugee camps and hospitals. And still, the Pentagon shamelessly refuses to impose any red lines on the use of its munitions.
This genocide has Israeli fingers on the triggers but it is ultimately an American-sponsored genocide. Based on Nuremberg principles, Joe Biden and Benjamin Netanyahu would be both in the dock, accompanied by Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Lloyd Austin and their counterparts in Tel Aviv.
If there were previous international doubts about Washington’s systematic criminality, the whole world knows for certain now.
Significantly, too, American citizens are also repulsed by the barbarity and the fact that their government is an accomplice in a historic crime against humanity. Polls show that Biden is one of the most unpopular presidents ever, and his culpability for the genocide in Gaza is a primary reason for the widespread disgust, especially among younger Americans.
As things stand, there is a fair chance that 81-year-old incumbent Democrat will lose the presidential election in 2024 – less than 11 months away. Not that any of the Republican contenders are qualitatively better. American politics are in a crisis of chaos.
But this is not just about Biden or other individual U.S. politicians. The United States government and much of the corporate-controlled media stand full square behind Israel’s crimes. That has always been the case since the Israeli state was formed in 1948 through Washington’s skulduggery at the newly established United Nations, together with the old colonial power, Britain – the author of the infamous and treacherous Balfour Declaration that instigated Zionist dispossession of the indigenous people in the Holy Land, or what London called its Palestinian Mandate.
Decades of duplicity and dissembling as a peace broker in the Middle East have been blown away by the horrendous massacre that has culminated at the end of 2023. Israel is carrying out a Final Solution that is comparable to the atrocities of Nazi Germany. The Zionist regime has cynically used the Holocaust against Jews as a cover for its genocide against Palestinians. And many decent Jews around the world, including Holocaust survivors, are rightly mortified by the depraved association exploited by the Zionist regime.
What is happening in Gaza may be seen as a shocking revelation for the world of historic proportions. It is an eye-opener of the violence and lawlessness that the U.S. emperor has been systematically engaged in since it became the dominant world power almost a century ago. Following the Second World War and the defeat of European fascism – largely by the Soviet Union – the United States has taken up the fascist mantle, albeit unspoken and disguised with pretensions claims of democratic virtue. No other nation has waged as many wars and conflicts over the past eight decades as the U.S. The death toll from American imperialism runs to tens of millions of people with victims on every continent.
The conflict that erupted in Ukraine in February 2022 is another manifestation of Washington’s imperialist machinations. That war is approaching its third year and shows no sign of ending because the U.S. continues to weaponize the Neo-Nazi regime in Kiev, a regime that Washington and its European NATO allies installed in 2014 through a coup d’état. The hostilities in Ukraine – the biggest in Europe since the Second World War – were fomented by the United States as a proxy war to defeat Russia. The war could have been avoided if the U.S. and its European vassals had negotiated a diplomatic solution to NATO’s expansionist threat to Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin did not want a war in Ukraine. Respected American commentators like John Mearsheimer, Jeffrey Sachs and Scott Ritter have all confirmed with extensive analysis that Washington and its European allies are primarily responsible for creating the conflict – one that has cost the lives of as many as 400,000 Ukrainian soldiers and the displacement of 10 million civilians across Europe. Nearly $200 billion in Western public money has been wasted so far. Biden and the European Union want to donate another $100 billion to prolong this futile war.
America’s wars were always officially rationalized with some seeming plausible cause or mission. In the early decades of the Cold War, Washington claimed to be defending the “Free World” against Communist aggression in Korea, Vietnam, Africa and Latin America. When the Cold War supposedly ended in 1990-91 after the collapse of the Soviet Union due to its internal political problems, we then saw a spate of U.S. wars around the world against drugs, terrorism, weapons of mass destruction and – most absurdly – defense of human rights.
The latest war in Ukraine is purportedly to defend democracy and sovereignty (of a Nazi Waffen SS-adulating regime in Kiev installed by the CIA!).
Nonetheless, the genocide in Gaza is the culmination, the final act. This is where all the history of U.S. crimes and fraudulence as a “noble exceptional democratic leader” finally comes unstuck.
It is an infernal climax for a global power, arguably the world’s first and last imperialist global hegemon. The whole of humanity can now see that all the American rhetoric and vanity is nothing but an ugly lie. The emperor is naked in all his crimes. The blood of children on his hands, his mouth drooling with lies. It was always so, but now universally evident.
One might ask, where do we go from here? Despite the abominable cruelty, suffering and misery, one can still hope that humanity will eventually find a way to live in peaceful coexistence. By respecting all those who abide by international law and basic moral precepts. Arguably, most of humanity is willing and capable of living in peace.
But to achieve that peace there must be no illusions and lies. There must be accountability and genuine atonement.
U.S. imperial power is damned. There’s no going back or reform. The capitalist economic system – evolved as oligarchic fascism and its two-party puppet show – driving imperialist barbarism must be called out and overturned. Biden is doomed, and Trump and so on are just more false prophets.
Seeing the naked truth is usually the first step before we can go on to realize the truth of beauty and decency. We might hope – for the sake of peace and ending much of the suffering – that the world is taking that first step.
“This genocide could not happen without the crucial support of the United States for the Israeli regime.”
Let’s see why this is wrong:
“This genocide is ONLY happening because the Israeli hand in the US glove is making ALL the moves. The USA is a shell. Israel animates its every move.”
Fixed it for you.
Getting warm…
“It was the year that the entire world saw the truly hideous and criminal nature of U.S. power.”
Clearly not up to speed just yet.
No name that I could see.
The NWO is a Satanic Nazi sect.
The anti-White Israelis are hampered by being considered White, in the politics they have created since about 1910. Now is when they reap some of what they sowed
The Jew S is a corporation run by the Rothschild’s private Fiefdom located in Illegally, Criminally, Militarily occupied Palestine.
Americans are the new Palestinians.
What does a man do when he finds himself worthless, lazy, apathetic, unwilling to learn, unable to muster any kind of passion for ANYTHING, and now DESPERATE for cash ? . . . He JOINS THE MOB.
The Bidens are pure garbage, snarky arrogant dumb oxen with rotten teeth, one dimensional minds, the distinct inability to do any kind of critical thinking, empty, deadpan, purposeless soulless, godless fucks who knew way in advance that they were never going anywhere in life if they didn’t subscribe to THEFT, and so now they think themselves successful . . . SO LONG AS THEY MAKE MONEY FOR THEIR BOSSES.
The Bidens are exactly what Trump calls many people he knows the truth about . . . LOSERS.
The survival of Israel is in the hands of America, or is it the other way round.
Can’t possibly end well if Israel is in need of American support, or America is in need of Israeli/Jewish support.
I wonder if there exists some honour between these two murdering thieves…
“It was the year that the entire world saw the truly hideous and criminal nature of U.S. power.” … Oh sure, it was just THIS year that the criminal and evil nature of the power of the Jewnited States has been on full display. Other than the past, oh I don’t know, 60 f*cking years, which certainly escalated dramatically with the mass murder and treason of 9/11, which was perpetrated by a clawful of Jew-S-A deep state depraved demonic scum and a bunch of satanic Jews. The “entire world saw the truly hideous and criminal nature of U.S. power” with the criminally insane wars of aggression and destruction on Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Palestine, and then the (former) citizens of the Jewnited States with the Covid-1984 war, the National Defense Authorization Act, and the “migrant” invasion due to borders left purposely unprotected.
Hell, you could go back to WWI and WWII when the Jewnited States, transformed from being the United States in 1913, fought for the wrong f*cking side in both of those massive conflicts.
2023 was just another year in a string of far too many in which the “hideous and criminal nature”, and outright evil, of the criminal cartel calling the shots in the Jewnited States has been on full, grotesque, depraved display. We are not on the way to Destination: F*cked, for we have already arrived there some time ago, shortly after international Jews got control of the cuntry’s system of credit and currency.
So many lies and so much missing – I had to stop reading this.
Excellent piece of truthful journalism, though it made me almost physically sick reading it. Biden and Netanyahu can now be firmly embedded in that great pantheon of powerful and pitiless monsters who have plagued human history, from Atilla the Hun to Pol Pot. The blood of Palestinian infants has soaked the floors of every bombed hospital in the Gaza-KZ and yet this unspeakable atrocity is gleefully celebrated by many in Tel Aviv? They’re beyond shaming, but shame on them anyway. And shame on you too, the once-great country we called America.
Dear Santa, Please bring me these gifts for Xmas.
End the Gaza War.
Reinstate the Palestinians to their homeland.
Remove the occupying population and send them to a place with fewer neighbors to be hated.
Free Julian Assange.
End the Fed.
End fiat money.
Return our military forces to the US
Free all Jan 6 prisoners.
Close the southern border NOW. .
Give me back my friends Jeff and Tommy who died of COVID.
Wow – excellent comments. But no one mentioned the real cause of all this power mongering – is belief is the holy books – belief in god – belief in the state – all created by the belief in the one true god – monotheism – Amenhotep’s creation. When my god became the one true god all hell was brought to earth.
Fundamentalist Christians are hugely guilty of this – they say if you don’t believe in their phony Christ you will go to hell for all eternity – a pretty stiff punishment for not believing in an unproved invisible thing. For Christians the only way to heaven is by this one Jew man god. If you don’t believe, well you are going to hell, and if there is a war – they would be glad to send you there early. Monotheism is the original source of fascism – all must align like the fasces to the will of the one ruler – and look who rules – madmen like Netanyahu and Biden – and Trump will be no better.
Jews represent this mad all powerful god, and when Hamas attacked Israel it made this all powerful god mad with rage. The real god all these Christians worship is Jewish supremacist ego – and you dare not oppose it or you get carpet bombed. Christians love to say – all knees will bend to their Lord. That is Jewish supremacist ego all the way – and these dopes also will dispute that claim. Well Virginia, if you are a Christian you are an honorary Jew. Early Christians were so anxious to be Jewish, the cut their foreskins also.
The world is full of retards – like all the morons who think Baptism is a good thing. When Baptized – you are telling the whole world you are saved and they are damned. No one can figure it out – but that is what it is about. It is your ego saying F_CK YOU to everyone. I’m saved and you’re going to hell.
That my friends is the madness driving the slaughter in Gaza. Unbridled ego run rampant.
What you are seeing in Gaza is what happens when Jewish power has corrupted all the world leaders – and no one stops the madness – no bombers over Tel Aviv, no drone attacks on IDF airbases – no one does anything except the anarchist rebels like Hezbollah and Houthis.
Perhaps one morning we awake and D.C. and Tel Aviv and London and NYC vaporized. That is what it will take to stop this madness. All Rothschilds and their underlings must all be hunted down and executed on the spot. No arrests and no plea bargains, etc. That is what a sane world will do, but won’t because they were quite clever to make sure any threat was in their pocket.
All of this could be stopped if even one state droned Netanyahu or Biden. And they certainly deserve such an ignoble death, and they did it to many world leaders so f-ck them.
What is driving this madness is faith and belief in the words in the Holy Bible. That book is the evil consuming us – and most people just love that book.
Here is the true evil driving the world to utter madness:
Jesus died for MY sins.
1. There is no such thing as sin in the real world, it is ONLY a theological construct.
2. Jesus is literary fiction.
3. There is zero evidence anyone can magically take away your sins. Even if there was a god and sin, you still would not know.
4. Since sin can not be observed or measured, how do you know your sins are absolved? Has about as much credibility that invisible CO2 molecules are causing the earth to boil. Claims about invisible and undetectable things should be cause for disbelief, not fearful neurosis.
5. Obsession with purity to get with god is another BIG superstition. This started with Jews in the temple, were royalty and priests got all clean in public baths and wore the finest colored robes to fool the unlearned dirty peasants. Jewish priests would not allow those with deformed penises into the temple. Back then is was much warmer and most people were naked.
6. No religion can survive these two words “PROVE IT”.
7. All the evil in Gaza is being caused by this intersection of the 3 Abrahamic faiths, all fighting over Jerusalem – a home place of the gods – the space aliens who were on earth one time – they made us – and the Abrahamic hell religions are all Anunnaki cargo cults. The gods are gone, we went feral on the planet’s surface and now we fight over some spot they randomly chose when they landed here. Jerusalem is of no special significance, just a rock outcropping stained by thousands of slain in all the wars like the Crusades. More people were gutted in Jerusalem than any other spot on earth – such a holy place.
What I propose is we nuke Jerusalem for the sane reason to end all these Abrahamic hell religions – since all their prophecies revolve around that one spot, if we turn the Dome of the Rock into a Crater of Glass then it would all end just like that. Could you imagine the looks on all the faithful faces if “Jew ruse salem” was a smoking radioactive hole? That would be priceless.
Belief in the Holy Bible is the mind virus taking the world to hell. It is that book that is causing hell – and humans are such fools they take it’s name in reverance and call it scriptures – when it is the greatest literary hoax of all time.
Palestinians are true Semites.
Khazars are not Semites, they are invaders from other continent.
Is it enough to understand this 75 years long genocide?
