In Orwell\u2019s <\/strong>Nineteen Eighty-Four,<\/strong><\/em> the Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war and the Party\u2019s slogan is \u201cWar is Peace\u201d. Donald Trump and his team of warmongers are obviously keen students of Orwell.<\/strong><\/h5>\n

At the 75th anniversary this week of the Allied assault on Nazi-occupied France, US President Donald Trump and other NATO leaders issued a \u201cD-Day Proclamation.\u201d In it, they pledged never \u201cto repeat the horror of World War Two.\u201d The US and 15 other nations, including Britain, France, and Canada, also\u00a0declared<\/span><\/a>\u00a0their commitment to \u201c<\/strong>resolve international tensions peacefully.<\/strong><\/em>\u201d If the so-called\u00a0D-Day proclamation sounds like a load of PR twaddle, that\u2019s because it is.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI want peace on earth!\u201d<\/h3>\n
Evidently, it was hurriedly put together for some feel-good effect as Trump and others commemorated Operation Overlord to the strains an army brass band and Vera Lynn\u2019s wartime paean \u2018We\u2019ll Meet Again\u2019. The noble sacrifices of soldiers and civilians in the defeat of Nazi fascism would have to be given some token of decorum in the form of a peaceful proclamation, so it seems.<\/h5>\n
However, the\u00a0proclamation by Trump and his gang of NATO warmongers has to be seen as nothing but cynical lip-service.<\/h5>\n
While commemorating a past naval offensive \u201cfor peace,<\/em>\u201d the US has at the very same time deployed warships and nuclear-capable B-52 bombers in the Persian Gulf in a blatant show of aggression towards Iran. Washington is flagrantly using military force to subjugate Tehran to its geopolitical demands. So much for \u201cresolving international tensions peacefully.<\/em>\u201d<\/h5>\n
Trump this week told media that he did not want the stand-off with Iran to become an all-out military conflict. Yet he continues to threaten that the US is ready to deploy the military option against Iran. Last month, he cryptically warned about the \u201cofficial end of Iran<\/em>\u201d while also offering \u201ctalks<\/em>\u201d with Tehran. Trump\u2019s occasional words of peace are therefore meaningless.<\/h5>\n
Washington\u2019s apparent problem with Iran is based on claims that the latter is \u201csupporting regional terrorism<\/em>\u201d and has \u201cambitions to build nuclear weapons<\/em>.\u201d That amounts to paranoid hearsay, sourced from the Israelis and Saudis. It is hardly the grounds for justified military force. In reality, the US is simply using aggression \u2013 which is a war crime \u2013 in order to exert its political will on Iran.<\/h5>\n
LD: Meanwhile, Trump is himself quite happy to use nuclear weapons, asking naively: \u201cWhat\u2019s the point of having nukes unless we use them?\u201d [LD]<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another contemporary case that flies in the face of the D-Day\u00a0Proclamation is the Trump administration\u2019s threat to use military force against Venezuela.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
That threat is wielded because Washington doesn\u2019t want the elected socialist president Nicolas Maduro in power, and instead wants to replace him with their preferred pro-Washington opposition figure who has never been elected by the people. This is not even a case of \u201cresolving tensions peacefully<\/em>\u201d. It is a straight leap to militarism by the Trump administration towards a sovereign country whose internal affairs should be none of Washington\u2019s business.<\/h5>\n
If Britain, France, Germany, Canada and other members of the NATO military alliance were genuinely committed to this week\u2019s D-Day\u00a0Proclamation they would be forthrightly telling the US to halt its aggression towards Iran and Venezuela. But none of them have. The Europeans may have expressed concern about US tensions with Iran, owing to their selfish instincts for their own safety, but they have not been nearly as robust enough in censuring Washington to cease its criminal use of aggression. Their mealy-mouthed attitude is in effect a cowardly form of passive aggression.<\/h5>\n
No surprise there, however. Every illegal war and covert operation launched by the US has been supported by the NATO alliance ever since its formation in 1949. When did the bloc ever oppose any American military intervention, no matter how egregiously unlawful and destructive? It automatically issues a blank cheque of seeming \u201cmultilateralism<\/em>\u201d to cover for US war crimes, the most recent of which include the wars in former Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia and covertly in Syria, where the NATO powers covertly sponsored jihadist terror proxies in a bid for regime change against President Assad.<\/h5>\n
Some of the NATO minions go off on their own national adventures. France\u2019s President Emmanuel Macron, who likes to pontificate about \u201csaving the planet<\/em>\u201d, has currently ordered French troops to \u201cfight terrorism<\/em>\u201d in Mali, Niger, Cameroon and other former colonies in Africa.<\/h5>\n
Maybe if France stopped looting those countries with its\u00a0control<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0over their national finances through the colonial-era African Franc system whereby those countries are mandated to deposit their gold reserves in Paris, then many internal African \u201ctensions could be resolved peacefully<\/em>.\u201d As is it, the military option is the preferred one because it flatters the French national ego on the world stage and makes huge profits for France\u2019s weapons industry.<\/h5>\n
What NATO member has ever stood up and questioned the Washington-led policy of aggression towards Russia and China? All 29 members of this militarist club indulge the US ringmaster and its gung-ho strategy of encircling Russia and China with missile systems, encroaching bases, warships, and warplanes.<\/h5>\n

\"Just<\/a><\/p>\n

Just last month in an address to West Point graduates, Vice President Mike Pence \u201cpromised<\/em>\u201d that US soldiers would one day be on a battlefield \u201cfor America<\/em>\u201d. He said it was a \u201ccertainty<\/em>.\u201d Ominously, Pence mentioned China as a potential target because it has the audacity to \u201crival American power<\/em>.\u201d Again, so much for commitment to resolve tensions peacefully.<\/h5>\n
Here is the stupendous irony. NATO was formed in the ashes of World War Two, not because the US and Britain defeated Nazi Germany. It was the Soviet Union that largely destroyed the Nazi war machine. The overdue D-Day landings in June 1944 were finally ordered by American and British rulers because they feared the Soviets would conquer all of Germany singlehandedly. The Red Army at that stage in the war was rolling up the Third Reich, eventually taking Hitler\u2019s Berlin in May 1945.<\/h5>\n
Before the outbreak of the war, American and British capitalism had fostered the rise of Nazi Germany during the 1930s as a bulwark against the Soviet Union and the spread of socialism among their own working classes. Nazi Germany would not have become the fearsome force were it not for massive foreign investment from Wall Street and American corporations like Ford, General Motors, Du Pont, ITT and others, as\u00a0documented<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0by historian Jacques Pauwels. When the Nazi regime went rogue, Western powers were obliged to liquidate it, as they usually do, as seen with other client regimes down through history. Iraq\u2019s Saddam Hussein being a choice case.<\/h5>\n
The D-Day event is therefore not at all what it seems. There is no disputing the courage and conviction of ordinary American and British soldiers who went to war against fascism. But that principled motivation did not apply to their ruling classes. A concomitant of the ambiguity and contradictions is demonstrated in the way that NATO was promptly set up after the war, and for the primary purpose of confronting the West\u2019s supposed wartime ally, the Soviet Union.<\/h5>\n
Another concomitant is the way the US and NATO powers have in the decades after the war continued to use militarism and aggression as a matter of policy to achieve their geopolitical interests. The US and other Western powers never really had a problem with Nazi Germany based on political, legal or moral principle. The latter\u2019s termination came to be a matter of pragmatic urgency in order to safeguard Western geopolitical interests of stability and spheres of influence. The root problem for Western capitalist powers was always Russia as a power perceived to be in defiance of their objectives.<\/h5>\n
That\u2019s why the D-Day\u00a0Proclamation of peaceful intent issued by the US and its gang of NATO warmongers is a travesty. It\u2019s the exact opposite of their policy and practice of aggression.<\/h5>\n

LD: You can judge the calibre of this President by the team of Zionist warmongers he has around him at all times. Would he appoint such\u00a0 warmongers to high office if he was a \u201cman of peace\u201d? <\/strong><\/h5>\n
The smiling figure on the right, Gina Haspel, not only happens to be an ardent\u00a0 advocate of torture techniques<\/a><\/span>, including waterboarding, but has also been implicated in the destruction of 92 interrogation videotapes showing the torture of detainees in the black site she ran in Thailand on behalf of the \u201cpeace-loving\u201d American government. <\/strong><\/h5>\n
All these malefactors posing as model citizens have one thing in common: they are blindly besotted servitors of Israel. Dr Mahathir Mohamad, former Prime Minister of Malaysia, was spot-on right when he said in a speech to the Tenth Islamic Summit Conference on October 16, 2003: \u201cToday the Jews rule this world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them<\/span><\/a>.\u201d\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h5>\n

Judge for yourself how much Donald Trump is loved by Israeli Jews, the people for whom he is willing to sacrifice countless American lives in the future:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n
