Only We Can Bomb It
The U.S. Empire, Thrashing and Lashing Out as It Declines
President Donald Trump has promised to bomb Yemen for a “long time.” Trump is a real president now. Presidents become “real” when they bomb something. Remember how Trump was praised by the U.S. mainstream media when he launched missiles against Syria in 2017?
Back in 2017, I wrote this: The launch of 59 expensive cruise missiles against a Syrian airfield did little to change the actions of the Assad government. Nor did it knockout the airfield. Yet it was spun by Trump as a remarkable victory. In his words, “We’ve just fired 59 missiles, all of which hit, by the way, unbelievable, from, you know, hundreds of miles away, all of which hit, amazing. It’s so incredible. It’s brilliant. It’s genius. Our technology, our equipment, is better than anybody by a factor of five. I mean look, we have, in terms of technology, nobody can even come close to competing.”
"Only we can bomb it" should replace "In God we trust" as the U.S. national motto.
America’s best and brightest (who were never quite that) have become the worst and dimmest. And that’s true whether the president is blue or red, Biden or Trump. The problem is our “leaders” have no moral principles. No integrity. No sense of right and wrong. They’re all about power and sending “messages” through bombing. Or sending tons and tons of bombs to Israel so that the Zionists can send “messages” to the Palestinians. The main message: begone or be dead.
Even as our “leaders” do this, they seek to solidify a mythic history of the U.S. (see video above) where America is exceptional in its rightness and where they (the leaders) are the ones who grant us our rights (such as freedom of speech) when these rights are inalienable. Indeed, rather than protecting our rights, they want to control them, limit them, and make them obedient and subservient to power.
Rulers’ ideas rule. And our rulers’ ideas are increasingly toxic.
With democracy already deeply compromised in America, we’re witnessing and experiencing the thrashing and lashing out of a declining American empire, not only externally but in the “homeland.”
Readers, what do you make of all this?
I fear the decline of the U.S. empire is accelerating brought on by two things.
First, the Zionist project to begin a war with Iran is coming. No matter what his supporters say, Trump will do what Miriam Adelson wants - and even if he resisted, events will move out of his control. (The fool surrounded himself with Zionist hardliners).
Second, the oligarchs know they have their final chance to take everything capitalism has left before it collapses of its own weight. Anything left standing will be privatized with the oligarchs collecting a toll.
If you have the time, read Stephen Kinzer's book "Brothers" about the two men most responsible for turning the US into a criminal republic, John and Allen Dulles. It is astounding how much of what is wrong with America now can be traced back to those two psychopaths. And now that we know that Oswald was part of Operation Redcap (another Dulles debacle) we know for certain that Dulles was behind the assassination. What is also apparent is that the top news organizations and the big financiers were in cahoots with the CIA right from its inception. As George Carlin said, it's a big club, and you're not in it.
