U.S. imperialism is commonly called \u201cneoconservatism,\u201d but it is basically the same as other imperialistic regimes throughout history \u2014 it is controlled by the given invading nation\u2019s aristocracy, which deceives in its propaganda regarding the reasons why \u201cregime change\u201d is supposedly needed in the targeted countries. By means of these lies, the nation\u2019s public are made willing to fund these invasions in their taxes and can even think that it is their patriotic duty, instead of being a massively criminal enterprise that they\u2019ve been fooled into supporting with their dollars and sometimes with their very bodies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">First here will be essential historical background, in order for a reader to be able to understand typical U.S.-and-allied propaganda; and, then, will come a typical example which displays the results of that history and which thereby exposes the crucially implicit lies in that propaganda, and which cause it to be <em>effective<\/em> propaganda \u2014 the sort of deceits that fool most of the public into favoring these invasions and other international aggressions, which aggressions routinely produce mass-murders, benefitting only the aggressor-nation\u2019s aristocracy and the aristocracies that are allied with them. This is the way that wealth in the U.S. has come to be so extremely narrowly held, so that, for example, a January 2018 study done for Deutsche Bank, <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.db.com\/newsroom_news\/Inequality_Jan2018.pdf\">\u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>US Income and Wealth Inequality<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>, reported (p. 9) that \u201cUS: Top 0.1% owns as many assets as the bottom 90%\u201d, and (p. 11) that, out of all the 34 OECD nations, America has the most unequal incomes \u2014 <em>the most extreme inequality, of them all<\/em>. The billionaires and their agents say that this is okay because, as the wealthy economist Lawrence Summers once put it, <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/why-inequality-is-rising-under-obama-2012-11\">\u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>we should accept inequality of results, recognizing that those who earn more are in a better position to contribute more to support society<\/strong><\/span>.\u201d<\/a> (In other words: poor people are less worthy than rich people are. Rich people tend to believe that, and to reward economists such as Summer for teaching that. It\u2019s essential to their propaganda \u2014 and they fool especially themselves into believing it.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The example to be dissected here will be from Wall Street\u2019s Michael Bloomberg. Though he doesn\u2019t deceive the public more than other billionaires do, he is running to become America\u2019s President in order to replace another deceptive billionaire, Donald Trump, and so his \u2018news\u2019-operation provides a typical example of the mendacity of America\u2019s mainstream (that\u2019s to say, its billionaire-controlled) \u2018journalism\u2019 (virtually everything concerning international relations in U.S.-and-allied \u2018journalism\u2019 is propaganda: written so as to deceive). In Bloomberg\u2019s case, the medium isn\u2019t merely billionaire-controlled; it is billionaire-owned, just like Jeff Bezos\u2019s <em>Washington Post<\/em>is. Washington DC and NYC both get their \u2018news\u2019 from such highly compromised, billionaires-owned-and-controlled, \u2018news\u2019-media, as these. America\u2019s broadcast media then spread that \u2018news\u2019, nationally, and internationally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The individuals who report \u2018news\u2019 at a \u2018news\u2019-medium such as Bloomberg \u2018News\u2019, do what the operation\u2019s owners and its advertisers want them to do, which is to propagandize for their aristocracy \u2014 their own and allied billionaires\u2019 corporations\u2019 expansion so as to extend their empire into more countries and push aside the local aristocracy there, and, in this way, to concentrate the world\u2019s wealth into their own and allied corporations. An expansionist or \u201cimperialistic\u201d aristocracy\u2019s goals are analogous to gangland operations, except that <strong>an aristocracy writes and enforces the laws, instead of merely <\/strong><em><strong>violates<\/strong><\/em><strong> the laws (as gangland-operations do)<\/strong>. It creates laws within its own nation, and it creates laws also internationally via alliances and treaties, and it uses alliances and treaties against \u2018enemies\u2019, such as the military alliance and treaty organization NATO, in order to pump increased sales of their own nation\u2019s corporations\u2019 weaponry (such as from Raytheon Corporation), and it also uses those international laws via sanctions and secondary sanctions, which can become the preliminary phase of an outright military invasion of the targeted country after finally declaring the nation to <em>be<\/em> an \u2018enemy\u2019 and thus \u2018acceptable\u2019 to invade and take over, for \u2018us\u2019 against \u2018them\u2019. (For example: Trump is outright refusing the demand by Iraq\u2019s sovereign Government for all U.S. forces to leave.) Mere gangsters cannot do any such things, and so they are much more under the gun than \u201cbanksters\u201d (aristocrats and their agents) are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Controlling the \u2018news\u2019-media is essential to any expansionist aristocracy\u2019s operations. No empire can be achieved or maintained without deceiving the nation\u2019s public, who must pay the taxes and sometimes supply the corpses to build and increase the aristocracy\u2019s empire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">This is the difference between imperialistic operations versus organized-crime operations. Organized crime is lower-class because it doesn\u2019t control the government, but, when the <em>anti<\/em>-organized-crime Kennedy brothers were briefly in power in the U.S., organized crime did at least provide crucial assistance to <em>eliminating<\/em> the Kennedys; and, in that sense, organized crime was itself part of America\u2019s Establishment, at least at that time. Furthermore, as Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair documented in their classic 1998 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Whiteout-Drugs-Press-Alexander-Cockburn-ebook\/dp\/B00PP2ZWG0\"><em>WHITEOUT: The CIA, Drugs and the Press<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/span> (p. 134), \u201cFrom the moment of its inception, the CIA held to the same policies of its progenitors in keeping gangster organizations in business. By 1947 the Agency was backing heroin producers in Marseilles, Burma, Lebanon, and western Sicily.\u201d Organized crime is often essential to the CIA\u2019s \u201cSpecial Operations.\u201d Organizations such as the Mafia are valuable assets of the CIA. They are experts at getting things done secretly. And such operations are less likely than any other to ever be exposed as having <em>been<\/em> CIA operations. Organized crime is thus a terrific asset to international intelligence agencies \u2014 especially to America\u2019s CIA, which promotes itself as representing a \u2018democracy\u2019, even though it represents, instead, a fascist-imperialist regime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Two years before the CIA got into protecting the heroin trade, U.S. President Harry S. Truman was, on <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.is\/sKLQr#selection-861.0-861.12\">26 July 1945<\/a>, persuaded by his top general, Dwight David Eisenhower (hypocritical inventor of the PR phrase he used against the Establishment \u2014 which he actually always <em>supported<\/em> \u2014 \u201cmilitary-industrial complex\u201d) that if the United States wouldn\u2019t conquer the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union would conquer the United States, and so the suckered-by-Eisenhower Truman launched the Cold War on that date; and, on that basis, he turned America\u2019s most essential WW II ally, the Soviet Union, into an enemy, and <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.is\/MWj49\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>the Cold War secretly remains U.S. policy till this very day<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.

Though Truman was pressing for the secret operations<\/em> [Special Operations]<em>, his signature was on no compromising document. The authority for the operations was given by the National Security Council. There was no congressional appropriation, so funding came from private sources inside the U.S., through a network of proprietary front organizations, millionaires, and criminal enterprises<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">That was how the \u201cThe Buck Stops Here\u201d President, Truman, actually functioned. (Similarly, Hitler\u2019s \u201csignature was on no compromising document\u201d about the Holocaust, but, as I documented in my own 2000 <em>WHY the Holocaust Happened<\/em>, Hitler was the individual who ordered it \u2014 that was an executive action from the very top. It wasn\u2019t any truer that Truman was a \u2018weak dictator\u2019 than that Hitler, whom some Hitler-supporters label with that phrase, was. However, there were important differences between them: Truman\u2019s impact turned out to shape subsequent history even more than Hitler\u2019s impact did. And, whereas Truman\u2019s vastly harmful impact resulted from his being the Deep State\u2019s fool and thus his starting the Cold War on 26 July 1945, Hitler\u2019s vastly harmful impact was from his own, very private and longstanding, personal and always secret obsession against \u201cblood-poisoning\u201d of pureblooded Christians or \u201cAryans,\u201d by Jews, which had started obsessing him in him in 1919, twenty years before the war to impose this exterminationist goal upon the the entire world became publicly unveiled \u2014 a war that he partly lost when WW II ended, whereas Truman\u2019s war already partly won in 1991, and continues on even now, with the U.S. regime still planning to go in for the final kill, if and when it ever can.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em>WHITEOUT<\/em> also noted (p. 138) that,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em>CIA officer Miles Copeland wrote twenty-five years later that had it not been for the Mafia the Communists would have been in control of Italy, so crucial had the criminal organization been in murdering labor organizers and terrorizing the political process. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Furthermore,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em>The CIA\u2019s financing mechanisms for these abuses of its charter came in the form of large subventions from American businessmen among whom Allen Dulles and Forrestal passed the hat at New York\u2019s Brook Club, getting contributions from fearful millionaires such as \u2026<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">And (p. 225),<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em>General Phao had been made director of Thailand\u2019s national police after the CIA-backed coup of 1948 led by Major General Phin Choohannan. Phao\u2019s 40,000-member police force, the Police Knights, immediately engaged in a campaign of assassinations of Phin and Phao\u2019s political enemies. These troops also assumed control of Thailand\u2019s lucrative opium trade. \u2026 Phao\u2019s control of the opium trade was directly abetted by the CIA, which had funnelled him $35 million in aid. Thailand would thereafter become the CIA\u2019s main base of operations in the region.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em>In the 1950s the CIA backed General Phao in a struggle with another Thai general for monopoly of control of Thailand\u2019s opium and heroin trade\u2026Backed by squads of CIA advisers, Phao set about the task of turning Thailand into a police state. The country\u2019s leading dissidents and academics were jailed. \u2026 Phao also cornered the country\u2019s gold market, played a leading role on the top twenty corporate boards in the country, charged leading executives and businessmen protection fees and ran prostitution houses and gambling dens.

If you want to see in charts and graphs what the impact upon Russia has been from Putin\u2019s treating as criminals the most-corrupt of those Russian billionaires and his trying to get them to pay the taxes that they had avoided and hid abroad, click <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.is\/0MJ3W\">here<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, to see those charts and graphs. As is shown there, Russia\u2019s economy approximately halved between 1990-2000 when Putin became President, who turned this around so that Russia has thrived under his leadership. Bershidsky wants to restore the pre-Putin type of leadership \u2014 near-starvation to the Russian masses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><em><strong>\u2026 multiple players \u2014 Putin the ambitious authoritarian, his situational allies such as Erdogan and Xi, his adversaries such as the U.S., his reluctant partners such as the EU and his victims such as Ukraine \u2014 can combine efforts to build something worthwhile.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Whereas Bloomberg \u2018News\u2019 pumps the lie about Putin\u2019s \u201cvictims such as Ukraine,\u201d the clear and incontestable reality is that <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.is\/KxJ2v\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Barack Obama destroyed Ukraine in 2014<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, and that <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europereloaded.com\/the-obama-regimes-plan-to-seize-the-russian-naval-base-in-crimea\/\">\u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>The Obama Regime\u2019s Plan to Seize the Russian Naval Base in Crimea<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a> started being implemented by the Obama Administration by no later than June 2013 \u2014 well before his coup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The U.S. was backing an outright racist-fascist, or nazi, operation in Ukraine, as is clearly shown <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/crimesofempire.com\/2015\/05\/02\/odessa-massacre-the-day-the-kiev-junta-dropped-the-mask\/\">here<\/a> and <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.is\/DGIny\">here<\/a>. No one can reasonably assert that today\u2019s America isn\u2019t at least fascist, if not outright nazi (though predominantly anti-Russian instead of anti-Semitic, but <em>any<\/em> form of racist fascism is nazi ideology, and Obama\u2019s was a form of that: anti-Russian).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">So: anyone who places any trust whatsoever in American billionaires\u2019 \u2018news\u2019-media is either ignorant or else stupid, because the facts are conclusively the exact opposite, and those media \u2014 as is exemplified well in this article from Bloomberg\u2019s Leonid Bershidsky \u2014 base their international-\u2018news\u2019 reporting, and analysis, on what is of benefit to America\u2019s billionaires, instead of to their victims, either at home or abroad. What type of fascists would produce such fascist propaganda? How is it <em>not<\/em> extreme?

Their function is to publish criticism of billionaires and of the Government, but nothing that would encourage any sort of revolution to eliminate the dictators (including their agents) and to replace them by a different system. In the United States, where <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commondreams.org\/views\/2014\/04\/24\/rightwing-supreme-court-wrong-original-intent-constitution-was-progressive\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>the existing Constitution is democratic and the Government simply violates it routinely and the corrupt judges after 1970 have employed lies to label these clear violations \u2018constitutional\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, a revolution would need to eliminate the dictators but not the Constitution. In some other dictatorships, it would need to replace both, and replacing the system would thus have to be more drastic than merely replacing the existing rulers. Fortunately, that\u2019s not necessary in the United States; so, a bloodless revolution could restore America to democracy, though all post-1970 Constitutional rulings would need to be then reviewed by completely changed personnel in the U.S. Supreme Court, for possible reversal. In a bloodless revolution, changing all members would take decades; so, that process would have to start only after all other stages of such a revolution are already completed. It\u2019s possible, but unlikely. America will therefore probably remain a dictatorship by its richest. Though America\u2019s Founders sought not only to eliminate the British aristocracy here, but any subsequent aristocracy from ruling (even an American one) in the United States, America\u2019s richest did rise, after WW-II, to become America\u2019s aristocracy (now called America\u2019s <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/theduran.com\/understanding-the-deep-states-propaganda\">\u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Deep State<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>), and the U.S. Constitution will probably remain, and increasingly become, a dead letter here \u2014 increasingly lied-about by America\u2019s top Court as it establishes more and more fraudulent precedents, which insult the consensus-intentions of the great men who wrote and signed the Constitution and each one of its Amendments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">America\u2019s Founders warred against not only the British empire but actually against <em>any<\/em> empire.

But this Doctrine subsequently became \u2018interpreted\u2019 by rising U.S. aristocrats to be instead an authorization for the U.S. government to replace European governments as imperial rulers in other countries of this Hemisphere \u2014 yet <em>another<\/em> historical lie by the aristocracy. American fascism (especially of the imperialistic sort, which is commonly called now \u201cneoconservatism\u201d) is <em><strong>not<\/strong><\/em> rooted in the U.S. Constitution; it <em><strong>violates<\/strong><\/em> the U.S. Constitution.
