I remember one evening in distant 1991, I was sitting with a few friends in the SAIS cafeteria discussing the future of the United States with a few very smart students, including a Pakistani Army Colonel, a US captain who served on aircraft carriers and a Spanish diplomat: we all agreed that \u201cthe system\u201d was perfect, so to speak, and that the US would only collapse if a strong external shock would hit it hard. We all agreed that the combination of the best propaganda machine in history, the stupidification resulting from many daily hours of watching the Idiot Tube and, finally, a very effective repression apparatus made for a quasi perfect dictatorship: the one which only gives the illusion of democracy and people power.<\/span><\/p>\n

Years later, in 2017, I read by J.M. Greer\u2019s brilliant book \u201cTwilight\u2019s Last Gleaming<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u201d which I later reviewed here<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. I would say that this book is one of the best one written on the topic of a future US collapse, even though this is a (very well written) fiction book because it brilliantly illustrates the kind of mindset which can get a supposed superpower in a very bad situation.<\/span><\/p>\n

To me, this all made perfect sense, but only because I, and my SAIS friends, never even considered the possibility that the US Nomenklatura<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a> would commit national suicide and, in the process, bring down the AngloZionist Empire.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet this is exactly what happened.<\/span><\/p>\n

So when did all this begin?<\/span><\/p>\n

There are many possible answers to this question. Some say with the murder of Kennedy. Others point to Clinton, whose Presidency inaugurated a policy of armed imperialism all over the planet; this administration was also the first one to witness a major \u201ccoming out\u201d of the Neocons (many of which had already infiltrated the GOP during Reagan). Then there is 9\/11 with the subsequent GWOT<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. As I said, these are all valid candidates, and there are many more.<\/span><\/p>\n

My personal view is that the main initiation of collapse was under Barack Obama, a truly exceptionally weak President who would have made an absolutely terrific used cars salesman, but who as a President lost control of his own country and even his own administration. It was under Obama that we saw the vacuum at the top resulting in various agencies (DoS, DoD, CIA, Pentagon, etc.) all developing their own \u201cforeign policies\u201d which resulted in total chaos on the foreign policy front. Needless to say, having harpies such as Hillary Clinton or Susan Rice or Samantha Power involved did not help!<\/span><\/p>\n

What is it with western women which makes them become even more bellicose than men when they reach a position of power?! Looking at women like Thatcher or Hillary, I wonder if these women are not carefully selected precisely for their nasty character and need to prove themselves as \u201cequal\u201d to men by being even more nasty and murderous than male politicians\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Since his election, it has become very popular to blame Donald Trump for everything which went wrong under his Presidency and, indeed, there is much which ought to be blamed on him. But what so many people overlook is that almost everything which went wrong under Trump began with Obama! When Trumps says that he inherited an awful mess, he is absolutely correct. Not that this absolves him from his own contribution to chaos and collapse!<\/span><\/p>\n

And, in truth, the biggest difference between Obama and Trump, is that Trump did not start any real wars. Yes, he did threaten a lot of countries with military attacks (itself a crime under international law), but he never actually gave the go ahead to meaningfully attack (he only tried some highly symbolic and totally ineffective strikes in Syria). I repeat \u2013 the man was one of the very few US Presidents who did not commit the crime of aggression, the highest possible crime under international law, above crimes against humanity or even genocide, because the crime of aggression \u201ccontains within itself the accumulated evil<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>, to use the words words of the chief US prosecutor at Nuremberg and Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, Robert H. Jackson<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. I submit that just for this reason alone any decent person should choose him over Biden (who himself is just a front for \u201cPresident\u201d Harris and a puppet of the Clinton gang). Either that, or don\u2019t vote at all if your conscience does not allow you to vote for Trump. But voting Biden is unthinkable for any honest person, at least in my humble opinion.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the Trump years something absolutely amazing happened: while Trump and his administration were busy destroying the Empire externally, the Dems put all the energy and resources into destroying Trump. However, to paraphrase a quote by the Russian author Zinoviev<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, \u201cthey targeted at Trump but they hit the United States\u201d (Zinoviev\u2019s quote was about the putative anti-Soviets: \u201c\u041c\u0435\u0442\u0438\u043b\u0438 \u0432 \u043a\u043e\u043c\u043c\u0443\u043d\u0438\u0437\u043c, \u0430 \u043f\u043e\u043f\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u0432 \u0420\u043e\u0441\u0441\u0438\u044e<\/em>\u201d which can be translated as \u201cthey were aiming at Communism, but they hit Russia<\/em>\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

What took place next was precisely what my SAIS friends and I could never have imagined: the US ruling elites committed collective suicide.<\/span><\/p>\n

Suicide is typically executed in three phases: decision to commit suicide, the act of suicide itself, and then death. If we accept that the decision to engage in behavior which can only be described as suicidal was taken sometime during the Obama years, then this begs the question of where we are now. In other words, has the Empire already died or is it still only in agony?<\/span><\/p>\n

I was asking myself that question the other day when I suddenly realized that I might have determined the exact moment when the Empire collapsed: 8 January 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

What happened that day? Following the murder of Major General Qasem Soleimani in a US drone attack (on the 3 of January 2020) the Iranians retaliated by using missiles to attack several US bases in Iraq. According to the US side, there were only minor injuries, which is very likely since the Iranians warned the US by several backdoor channels what they were planning on doing. This argument was used by Trump and his supporters to say that the Iranian reaction was lame, ineffective and could be completely ignored.<\/span><\/p>\n

In my opinion, the moment when the Trump Administration made this statement is when the death certificate of the Empire was signed. Why?<\/span><\/p>\n

First, the low number of US casualties (probably higher than the official one, US troops were evacuated and treated in several countries) is due to only<\/strong> to the fact that Iranians are superb strategists: they realized that killing a lot of US soldiers would force Trump to strongly retaliate, so they chose not to kill them. Instead, they put a gun to their collective heads. How?<\/span><\/p>\n

Think about it: the Iranian counter-strike showed the entire world something which most people did not realize: Iranian missiles (ballistic and cruise) were much more accurate than previously thought. In fact, they clearly have some form of terminal guidance. Simply put, the Iranians have proven that they can very precisely, deliver a warhead of several hundred pounds of high explosives pretty much anywhere in the Middle East. To give you a visual idea of their current coverage check out this<\/a> page.<\/span><\/p>\n

This bears repeating: the Iranians have now proven that they can place several hundred pounds of high explosives anywhere in the Middle-East with a CEP<\/strong><\/span><\/a> of about 3-5 meters!<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember the Khobar Towers bombing<\/strong><\/span><\/a>? Yes, this was a truck bomb with much more explosives than a missile can carry (by at least an order of magnitude), but that truck was also parked far away from the towers! Yet just under 500 people died that day.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are plenty of similar US military installations in the Middle-East, many buildings housing hundreds of US servicemen. Just imagine what would have happened if the Iranians had decided to take out as many lives as possible and placed a couple of their missiles right on top of, say, 10 such facilities \u2013 just imagine the cost in lives!<\/span><\/p>\n

But the Iranians are smart, and they chose a much wiser course of action: they used their missiles essentially to kick Uncle Shmuel where it hurts, but they mainly demonstrated their ability to create thousands of US casualties in just a few minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Obviously, another, now undeniable, Iranian capability is the ability to instantly destroy any gas\/oil facility in the region: wells, processing facilities, terminals \u2013 you name it: if it is important and expensive, the Iranians can destroy it.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Iranians also have the ability to close down the Strait of Hormuz and even to attack USN ships, possibly including carriers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last, but certainly not least, this now proven Iranian capability puts every government building in danger, along with any crucial facility (Dimona anybody?).<\/span><\/p>\n

At this point of the conversation all the well-propagandized flag-waving morons will immediately stand up and declare something along these lines:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSo what?! If these sand-niggers cross the line they know that we can massively bomb them! Heck, we can even nuke them and send them back to the stone age! Let them try and they will see what the wrath of the most powerful nation on earth, with the most formidable military in history, can do to a bunch of semi-literate peasants, LOL! Let see if their \u201cAllah\u201d will save them!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Apart from all the ignorant cliches typically spewed by this crowd, there is a major analytical error underlying this \u201clogic\u201d (I use the term generously): the Iranians have lived with this threat since 1979 and they are used to it. Not only that, but they know for a fact that these are empty threats. Oh sure, the US can do to Iran what \u201cIsrael\u201d did to Lebanon in the course of the \u201cDivine Victory\u201d war of 2006, or what NATO has done to Serbia during the Kosovo war (1998-1999): kill civilians and destroy the country\u2019s infrastructure to punish these civilians for supporting the \u201cwrong\u201d (i.e. not US approved) government. But if Uncle Shmuel does to Iran what Israel did to Lebanon, the result will be the same: the Iranians will rebuild (they are very good at that) and they will bounce back twice as strong. As for their martyrs, the more there will be, the stronger the Iranian people\u2019s resistance (check this article<\/strong><\/span><\/a> written by an Iranian scholar in excellent English explaining the roots of the unique ethos of Shia Islam).<\/span><\/p>\n

Last, but also not least, the US Presidents and their aides are quite aware of the current state of the US military: it is a military which simply cannot win even simple conflicts, a military hopelessly gutted by insane liberal ideologies, a military whose entire surface fleet has been made obsolete by hypersonic missiles<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>(which the Iranians also seem to be working on!) and a military whose Air Force spent absolutely obscene amounts of money to create a supposedly \u201c5th generation\u201d fighter<\/a><\/strong><\/span> which in many ways is inferior to US 4th generation aircraft!<\/span><\/p>\n

This begs the question of what still works in the US military. In my opinion, the US submarine fleet is still very powerful, and the US nuclear deterrence posture is still solid. Other than that? Meh\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Bottom line: the arguments that the US did not retaliate because it did not care, or that it does not care because \u201cwe can nuke them\u201d are typically civilian nonsense which have no connection whatsoever to the real world (just imagine the political consequences for the already highly unpopular US following a nuclear strike, especially on a non-nuclear country!)<\/span><\/p>\n

Okay, but then why did the US not retaliate?<\/span><\/p>\n

Simply put, because Uncle Shmuel does not have what it takes to take on Iran. Heck, Uncle Shmuel can\u2019t even take on Venezuela (!), which is an extremely weakened country right on the US\u2019s door step. Frankly, if this or the next President decides that the US needs to \u201cpick up a crappy little country and throw it against a wall just to prove we are serious<\/em>\u201d then I recommend Grenada. I know, Grenada was basically undefended in 1983 (mainly by a few lightly armed Cuban engineers) and it took the 82nd airborne to rescue the totally defeated and clueless US special forces stuck under fire, but I think that since 1983 the Pentagon had the time to make a some \u201clessons learned\u201d exercises and that by now the US probably could re-invade this tiny island without repeating one of the worst disasters in military history.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Empire died on the day the Iranians hit these US facilities and the US did absolutely nothing<\/strong>. In fact, since that date, what have we seen:<\/span><\/p>\n
