trump-clinton-2

Looking at the election system of the US and the US Power Elite one can have great doubts whether there´s true Democracy in the world´s most powerful country. Apart from the fact that in many US States „the winner takes all“ and how this can lead to a real misrepresentation of the majority, the Electoral_College is a very problematic institution, since it could theoretically suspend voter´s will.

The 2016 elections in the US were actually outstanding concerning the rejection both main candidates experienced (not without reasons). It was almost a choice between Small_Pox_and_Cholera. But it resulted – according to existing rules and regulations – in Donald Trump. The man, really an odd choice in a number of aspects, has the advantage of being more linked to old isolationist traditions and thus is not such a threat to World Peace as are Clinton and her backers (addicted to “Regime Change” wars). This the more as Trump has already announced his will to come to better terms with Russia!

Strange enough is in fact that supporters of the Neocon darling Clinton parade under the name “Leftaction“. This possibly even might make Clinton laugh. The complications of the Presidential Elections are quite well described by „The_Atlantic„. Nevertheless the paper likes to do the common Trump bashing while sparing Clinton from being exposed as what she is: a dangerous warmonger!

But „The Atlantic“ is quite well aware of what might happen, if the Electoral College elects Clinton instaed of Trump:

Were the electors to meet on December 19 and decide that Donald Trump is unfit to be president, all hell would break loose. Trump’s supporters, and even some who opposed him, would say the election had been stolen. Their worst fears about America’s “rigged” system of government would be confirmed. The president who the electors chose—even if it were Hillary Clinton, who beat Trump by over a million votes—would lack legitimacy in the eyes of much of the public. It’s unclear whether such a president could effectively govern. Violence might break out. Moreover, once the precedent was set, future electors would become more likely to act independently again. The process of choosing them would grow fraught. America’s entire system of presidential elections would grow unstable.“

If the resulting violence (in which rightist groups might play a considerable role) would go beyond a certain limit it could finally lead to „Martial_Law“.

A good analysis of what all could happen is given by globalresearch showing the war between different factions of the US Power Elite about strategic issues. It appears that at the center of that struggle is the question of whom to attack first: Iran, China or Russia. And so one thing is clear: this isn´t really a battle between „left“ and „right“, it is a battle within that very Power Elite, and various factions try to use the various sections of the people with all their understandable anger for their respective course, at the same time driving divisions further. That also follows the concept „divide and rule“.

It appears very realistic to predict: this is going to be a HOT WINTER!

trump-obama-2

The US Elections are over and the medial public seems puzzled. A political outsider has won, Trump is President elect. No doubt, the former candidate has given an „odd sight“ at many occasions and has made some infuriating remarks. Mainstream media in the US and much more so in Europe have dwelled especially on those incidents.

Critical analysts on the other side have stressed his much more moderate positions on the relations between the US and Russia in particular. Those moderate positions if applied in reality might save us from WW III! Moreover some of his economic designs are much more in favour of US re-industrialization after a decades long policy of stripping the US off its industrial potential in favour of finance capitalism. This left many people jobless and hopeless. His victory may have been much more based on those designs instead of his rude remarks against minorities. And to be clear, there was quite a number of Trump voters and even supporters among those minorities.

What was rarely mentioned in the mainstream: Clinton is in deed the Neocons spearhead in the Democratic Party and had the full Neocon support (which she „earned“ for example by her blood thirsty help to destroy Libya). In deed Clinton brought Victoria Nuland into the Obama Administration. Nuland is the wife of Robert Kagan. He was co-founder of the „Project for the New American Century“, which issued the paper „Rebuilding America´s Defenses“ in September 2000. If one wants to know what is in the Neocon „pipe“, one should read that paper. On page 60 you find the announcement of Fascist atrocities! It reads:

And advanced forms of biological warfare that can “target” specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool.“

https://de.scribd.com/doc/9651/Rebuilding-Americas-Defenses-PNAC

Surely it should not target white Anglo Saxon Protestants (WASPs)! In fact those positions are the declaration of readiness for „Biological Race War“, leaving Trump´s chauvinism far behind.

US Power Elite still divided over strategic issues

Let´s face the facts: The association Neocons=Republicans and „Soft Power“=Democrats is invalid. The Neocons have taken over large parts of the Democratic Party and still hold parts of the Republican Party, whereas the party apparatus of the GOP is furious to have been left by the strong Neocon faction of the Power Elite in favour of the Democrats. Fact is also: the real Power Elite consists of maybe 100 people, the Super Rich linked to the „Military Industrial Complex“ and to Finance Capitalism together with those industries controling the „Cyber World“. They have at their disposal the „Deep_State“ with the „Intelligence“ apparatus. But there are still strong splits within that tiny Power Elite over strategy and tactics. The Neocons are ready to take any risk in the confrontation with Russia and China, whereas the other parts of the Power Elite are more cautious about their own survival. Those other parts are made up by the „Soft Power“ faction (they want to strangulate opponents by economic means), the older parts tending to „Isolationism“ and some other splinters. Those parts are favouring Trumps more moderate stand towards especially Russia.

The various factions were at_war_among_themselves especially over the Iran question and it seems the internal war is going on. It appears that Trump could only have won because of the section within the Elite opposing the overall risky games of the Neocons. Thus Paul Craig Roberts might be wrong assuming that the whole Oligarchy is behind the obviously coordinated Anti-Trump protests. Anyway, the impression is there that the Neocons try to launch_an_America_Purple_Revolution against Trump. But both sides are familiar with „dirty tricks“ and the „Anti-Neocon faction“ of the Power Elite might know „how_to_steal_elections“ in favour of their cause as well. If they would have done so that could also backfire if becoming public. It is a sad sight anyway to see now how the poor sections of the population, namely of minorities and poor whites are directed against each other (what the rich ones always like). It could finally lead to a situation favouring the Neocon designs as we might see.

Things to possibly come

The future is far from being clear. As stated here on this blog several times, the „lone weird shooter“ might still be waiting for Trump around the corner. The „Deep State“ of the Neocons might produce fake „proofs“ of a Russian intervention into the elections to declare them null and void. A „less rude“ way of the Neocons could be a strong influence on the Electoral_College to bypass the vote for Trump and still elect Clinton to be President. Together with the stirring of violent pro and counter protests an escalating situation especially in the three named cases could lead to declaration of the „State of Emergency“ and „Martial Law“ in favour of a respective Neocon directed regime. I can hardly believe the Neocons will easily give up, if not the whole affair is already running according to a well planned design by the Neocons. „Conspiracy Theory“? Well, US Politics is so full of conspiracies that theories are not the worst things. I take it to be possible that before Trumps inauguration things could happen which will lead to an „astonishment“ of the media (especially in Europe) exceeding the astonishment about Trumps election by far. Things could still become very, very nasty, much more nasty than some of Trump´s „qualities“ definitely are. Well, it can also not be totally ruled out that he will just be „tamed“ by some internal hints from the Neocon side. Rudy_Giuliani having close connections with the Neocons is near his ear.

samir-amin

I´m very sorry I lost his writings and analysis a bit out of sight, but last week I had the pleasure to hear and meet this great Analyst, Samir_Amin, in Berlin, on two occasions. One occasion was a meeting organized by the left party, DIE LINKE. The other occasion was an event by the International_Peace_Bureau on Friday, the 30th of September. For a long time I suffered from senseless talks celebrating the mere existence of the organization for more than hundred years. Talks without substance, not at all naming the real culprits, the US Power Elite. But then Samir Amin, being the last speaker, saved my evening, he put things right! He made it clear that the US and its Western allies including Japan stand for more than 75 percent of world´s armament and other countries are armed not to be crushed by the West. The US Power Elite is trying always to crush every country not dancing to the tune of “the Master”! And he told the assembly – though in a friendly way – that the presentations lacked substance!

His writings should be much more read!

Here are some:

Short Addition to the Post

Since the grip of the US Empire on the „Old World“  is dwindeling the Empire seems to be more determined than ever to get hold of the whole American Double Continent: „America to the Yankees!“ The „Roll Back“ of the leftist tendency in Latin America is on. Present main target: Venezuela!

Original Post

I´ve written a lot about the US Power Elite and their internal divisions (http://tinyurl.com/zv32w7m), though they might only count about 100 people today. It appears that finally the Neocon faction of the Power Elite has taken control, especially since they took over the Democratic Party (http://tinyurl.com/zy4t6er), clearly signaled by the spearhead of the Neocons in that party: Hillary Clinton!

Nightmare One:

The Southern Hemisphere – the „Non-White World“ – Getting Independent

The US Power Elite (predominantly WASP, White Anglo-Saxon Protestants) would be rightfully called the „Deep State“ of the USA (http://tinyurl.com/ho2nz87). And this Deep State has become more and more ruthless over the time. They have brought nightmares over the Southern Hemisphere by installing brutal dictatorships (http://tinyurl.com/kkpvcf7) in their interest and waging bloody colonial wars, in the last one and a half decades especially with their „War on Terror“ (http://tinyurl.com/nrxxej5). One of their aims is to prevent countries of Africa, Latin America, Near and Middle East and Southern Asia from choosing their trade partners freely and from making use of their resources and industrialize, since that would mean a division of resources and allowing them their part of „consuming ecologic Earth capacity“. To fight this the US Power Elite is even ready to resort to Bio warfare:

US Power Elite Declared Bio War on the Southern Hemisphere, East Asia

and all Non-Western Countries in September 2000”: https://wipokuli.wordpress.com/2016/03/13/us-power-elite-declared-war-on-the-southern-hemisphere-east-asia-and-all-non-western-countries-in-september-2000/

There is quite a number of people – among myself – who suspect that the „Deep State“ of the US could be behind some outbreaks of epidemics Africa (http://tinyurl.com/mwgjhoo) and Latin America (http://tinyurl.com/hfxvkq6). Furthermore it becomes more and more obvious that US „Intelligence“ was (and is) deeply involved in pushing fanatic Islamism (http://tinyurl.com/h7s3y7e) in order to counter the Socialist block (formerly) but more so to counter progressive Arab/Islamic nationalism that could develop their own regions full of resources (http://tinyurl.com/nu3zv9n). Unfortunately the US strategy seems to be relatively „successful“ in the desire to keep the South under control.

In fact the US lead Western policy has established a „Ring of Fire“ around Europe (http://tinyurl.com/gp48dhw) and European governments have been so stupid for a long time to lend a helping hand to „Big Brother“ in doing so. In fact this ring of fire stretches from Libya throughout Africa (http://tinyurl.com/le2hlpx) over Near and Middle East, the Balkans up to the Ukraine. Actually one gets the impression that the fire burns into Europe with Terror (http://tinyurl.com/zrwrk3k) adding also together with the refugee crisis to the financial problems threatening to blow even the EU up. Is the US having a hand also in this dramatic development? Absurd? Weakening their allies/vassals? We have to have a look at further geo-political challenges the US Power Elite is facing.

The Role of the European Union and the Changes in it

In the perception of many people at the core of the European Union´s history stands the French German relationship, and not without reason. Long Nazi-German occupation during WW II has humiliated France (and saw a lot of collaboration on the French side). The more it might astonish how relatively fast France and the Western part of Germany (Federal Republic of Germany) developed some sort of neighborly closeness and somehow friendship in post war times under De Gaulle and Adenauer.

Not only the war tired youth gave additional impulses but a strong part did the hysteria about the (not real) danger of a Soviet invasion and the cold war. France was soon stripped off his official colonial empire (as happened to the Germans with theirs after WW I) though keeping (a disastrous) dominance in many of its former colonies. The war torn countries saw a close cooperation (also with other smaller countries) in basic industrial fields as favorable (German: „Montan Union“). The members of this European Coal and Steel Community ‚ECSC‘ (“ the six“: Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and West Germany) joined the EEC, the competing body  in Europe became the “European Free Trade Association” ( EFTA). As much as European powers (and the US) wanted the BRD to be enshrined in supranational structures France was resisting to be too much absorbed by such developments. Likewise France was member of NATO (French: OTAN) but did not integrate into the military structures and built its own “Force de frappe”.

The other side of the story is that the EU and its predecessors were also a means to keep the (West)-European allies/vassals under extended US control (http://tinyurl.com/zhocuew). And especially by the close French-German relationship the French with their desire for „independence“ as well as Germany could be better controlled being „bound together“ (not to forget that the German „Intelligence“ agencies were via old Nazis under full US control)

The EU has also become a means of US-lead Western expansion into East Europe and the former domain of the Soviet Union and later Russia, culminating in the Ukraine Crisis.

But there are changes in the US-European relationship. After World War II the roles were clear: the United States of America being the „Workbench of the World“ (http://tinyurl.com/pqp2mpp), creating more than half of World´s GDP, were the master, the war stricken West European countries the „clients“. With the vast de-industrialization of the US (and the UK) in the last decades and the turning to mostly finance-capitalist activities the European Union has become an enormous industrial power, quite ahead of the US. As problematic as the construction of the Euro is, it has become a dangerous competing currency for the Dollar.

And now we should look at the second nightmare of the US Power Elite, probably for them even much more frightening than the first one.

Nightmare Two, Most Troublesome:

The Iron Silk Road, the AIIB and the Eurasian Cooperation

China is actually supposed to bypass the US economically by 2018 (http://tinyurl.com/gr8z842), if one takes into consideration that many of the processes within the USA contributing to the GDP are somehow of „virtual“ nature, China´s real economic power might already be greater. Russia has to a certain extend recovered from the catastrophes linked to the collapse of the USSR. Both countries are in the BRICS „club“ (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). China and Russia are eager to strengthen the Eurasian economic cooperation. This is also manifested in the Iron Silk Road, the railway connection from China to West Europe, now only used for goods (http://tinyurl.com/hpz6cra). In connection to this and moreover important is the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which is also threatening to compete with the World bank. This is probably the greatest nightmare for the US Power Elite.

A look at the map showing the countries participating in it makes the US anger and fear understandable. In fact European industrial capital could benefit a lot from such an intensified cooperation developing the center of the Eurasian double continent. It opens a very peaceful mutual cooperation. Now one must know that the US Power Elite has taken over – with some regional modification – the ideas of Sir Halford John Mackinder, a British Geographer and political analyst having formulated the „Heartland Theory”. Quote:

Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland; Who rules the Heartland commands the World Island; Who rules the World Island commands the World.

http://www.indrastra.com/2016/06/PAPER-Heartland-Theory-of-Mackinder-Relevancy-in-Central-Asia-Geopolitics-002-06-2016-0043.html

How far this goes shows a view on the way the US Military High Commands for the various regions of this World are organized:

us-military-commands

In fact the US High Command for the region in the center of the old tri-continent Asia, Europe, Africa, is called US CENTCOM, Central US Military High Command, (http://tinyurl.com/jjowlkc). Under normal circumstances one would expect a big power – if so arrogant anyway to divide the World into sections for “colonial” military organization – to name the region of their own country as “CENTCOM”.

The concept of the Eurasian cooperation and the Iron Silk Road with the AIIB stands directly in opposition of the US Power Elite´s will to control the World by controlling the “Heartland”. Even the United Kingdom like many European countries is participating (http://tinyurl.com/zkk8746) in the AIIB. Also the old US ally Turkey has dared to join the Silk Road project and the AIIB. Could that have been a reason for a “US hand” in the coup attempt against Erdogan (http://tinyurl.com/gpp5fch)? And most of Europe, practically all of the EU involved in the Eurasian project, reason enough for US politics to take action?!

As one of the last attempts to get the EU “in line” is to be seen in the US efforts to get the EU into the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). As the US Ambassador with the EU has bluntly stated: “We need this deal to help solidify further the transatlantic alliance, to provide an economic equivalent to NATO “ (http://tinyurl.com/zoo9owg).

But resistance against TTIP and CETA (the Canadian-European equivalent) in Europe is growing rapidly, especially also in France. It looks as if it might (hopefully) not happen.

So, what if the US Power Elite has come to the conclusion: it´s time to blow up what we´ve built to control Europe better, since it has developed a dynamics which is now an obstacle to our world dominating strategy? A Europe pushed into complicated conflicts among the various states as well as within the respective societies might also be easier prevented from slipping into a Eurasian cooperation and they might always call „Big Brother“ to mediate in their quarrels. And also to this perspective fits the US strategy (in which stupid European governments have helped again and again) to create a „Ring of Fire“ around Europe from Libya through Africa and Near & Middle East to the Ukraine, moving millions of people (miserable poor victims of the warmongers) into Europe and creating enormous problems and conflicts between European states as well as within the European societies. As far as this aspect is concerned, this is my suspicion since quite some time.

So it might be that the “Deep State” of the US has come to the conclusion: what we can not control, we have to destroy! Thus the “European Project” might have died for the US.

And we have a „Neocon“ “crown witness” to this strategic concept, George Friedman, founder of Stratfor (retired from it 2015), presenting a speech at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeLu_yyz3tc

After all the „Deep State“ within the USA (http://tinyurl.com/ho2nz87) is famous for „False Flag attacks“, often perpetrated by Operation Gladio. A famous blueprint is Operation Northwoods, a project from the early 60ties for terror attacks on US targets outside and inside the US to be blamed on Cuba as a pretext for a full scale invasion of the hated country. It was stopped by Kennedy, which he didn´t survive long (http://tinyurl.com/ndzt8ho). After all the most famous False Flag is the event which the Genius James Corbett presented in five Minutes:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgrunnLcG9Q

Maybe US politics takes a last measure to frighten especially France and Germany by Terror „to order“. That´s why one should think into „all directions“ when it comes to the tragic terror attacks and otherwise tragic or painful events hitting the two countries:

terror

Zur Zeit rast eine Welle des Terrors durch Teile Europas, insbesonder Frankreich und Deutschland sind betroffen (http://tinyurl.com/hgozysb). Eine tiefe Analyse zeigt die plausible Möglichkeit, dass zwar fanatische Islamisten und verwirrte und verzweifelte „Einzeltäter“ eine Rolle spielen, aber vielleicht auch manipuliert und gesteuert werden könnten. „Üblicher Verdächtiger“: der „Tiefe Staat“ der USA. (West)-Europa als lange Gemeinschaft von „Verbündeten“ – nicht wenige Analytiker sagen Vasallen – im Visier der einzigen verblieben (militärischen) Supermacht? Da schüttelt manch Eine/r ungläubig den Kopf.

In der Tat sind die verschiedenen europäischen Vereinigungen wie EWG, EG und EU nicht zuletzt auch auf Betreiben der USA in der konkreten Form entstanden, um die Verbündeten/Vasallen besser beieinanderhalten und kontrollieren zu können (und, wenn möglich, auch die Demokratie und Souveränität auszuhebeln). Wenn die „Angst vorm Kommunismus“ nicht ausreichte, gab es auch andere Mittel, wie die „NATO-Geheimarmeen“, nach der italienischen Variante „Gladio genannt. Lange hat das gut funktioniert, flankiert durch die Einbindung in die NATO, die wie die EU fleißig nach Osten ausgedehnt wurde, dem „Russischen Bären“ ordentlich auf den Pelz rückend. Aber, die EU ist eine hochindustrialisierte Wirtschaftmacht mit eigenen Interessen – natürlich auch der einzelnen Länder – und (die gewünschte Einhegung der deutschen Wirtschafts- und Finanzkraft funktionierte nicht ganz wie gewünscht) einer dem Dollar nicht ganz ungefährlichen Konkurrenzwährung.

Der Albtraum der US-Machtelite

Es drohen aber aus der Sicht der USA noch ganz andere Gefahren: insbesondere das kontinentaleuropäische Kapital hätte enorme Entfaltungsmöglichkeiten im Zusammenhang mit einer eurasischen Zusammenarbeit, wie sowohl China als auch Russland sie anstreben. Im Gegensatz zu den USA (und dem vereinigten Königreich) hat Kontinentaleuropa nicht in diesem Maße auf De-Industrialisierung und Finanzkapitalismus gesetzt. Das kontinentaleuropäische Kapital könnte ungeheuer von dem Eurasischen Projekt profitieren. Für dieses Projet steht insbeondere die „Eiserne Seidenstrasse“ von China nach Europa (http://tinyurl.com/zkkpyjc & http://tinyurl.com/juf4bqa). Ein wichtiges Instrument bei den Bemühungen um diese Zusammenarbeit ist auch die von China organisierte „Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank“ (AIIB, http://tinyurl.com/zlmfolq), der viele (west)-europäische Länder schon beigetreten sind (so auch das vereinigte Königreich, http://tinyurl.com/zkk8746). Dies ist der geopolitische Albtraum der US-Machtelite. Wütend versuchen sie Europa in TTIP als „Wirtschafts-NATO“ zu manipulieren, was keineswegs im europäischen Interesse wäre, wie selbst die recht USA-gläubige Springer-Zeitung „Die Welt“ registriert (http://tinyurl.com/zffdmq6). Der Widerstand gegen TTIP wächst, auch in Deutschland und gerade in Frankreich, wie auch in Belgien (http://tinyurl.com/hquscjf).

aiib

Da könnte es durchaus sein, dass zwei Optionen vor der US-Machtelite erscheinen: entweder die EU in die Luft zu sprengen (http://tinyurl.com/ju3ao3a) oder mit brachialen Mitteln „zur Ordnung“ zu rufen. Die erste Möglichkeit deutet sich auch an in einem nicht für die breite Öffentlichkeit gedachten Vortrag vor dem Chicago Council on Foreign Affairs, den der Gründer des privaten Think Tanks Stratfor, George Friedman, hielt:

Die zweite Möglichkeit (ein letzter Versuch, bevor die „Sprengung“ endgültig eingeleitet werden „müsste“), nämlich die große Zahl der europäischen Länder, insbeondere Frankreich und Deutschland „auf Linie“ zu bringen (die sie bei den Bemühungen mit Russland um das Minsk II Abkommen in den Augen der USA verlassen hatten) würde auf ein sattsam eingeübtes Verfahren zurückgreifen.

Die „Schock-Strategie“ 2.0

schock-strategie-nk

Die brachialen Methoden, Ländern den Willen der US-Machtelite aufzuzwingen, ist in einem wichtigen Buch der kanadischen Autorin Naomi Klein eindringlich beschrieben: „Die Schock-Strategie“:

http://www.fischerverlage.de/buch/die_schock-strategie/9783596174072

Dieses Buch beschreibt ausführlich die Entwicklung des Neoliberalismus´ als US-gesteuerte völlige Entfesslung des Kapitalismus´ in der südlichen Hemisphäre mit Hilfe von Militärputschen und in anderen Teilen der Welt unter Benutzung von IWF und WTO. Die Autorin legt akribisch dar, wie ganze Staaten und Gesellschaften in „Schockstarre“ und absolute Wehrlosigkeit versetzt werden.

Es liegt absolut nahe, in der Terrorwelle, die durch Frankreich und Deutschland rast (http://tinyurl.com/hgozysb), eine (nicht ganz) neue Form der Schock-Strategie zu erkennen, sozusagen die Schock-Strategie 2.0!

Breaking News; Brexit, Great Britain (the United Kingdom) out!“ https://wipokuli.wordpress.com/2016/06/24/breaking-news-great-britain-the-united-kingdom-out-der-knall-die-briten-das-vereinigte-koenigreich-draussen/

Only a Subjektive Impression?

In face of the Brexit Vote´s result I had to reassess the whole case and came to the conclusion that the US Power Elite might have a strong interest in getting the UK out of the EU and creating trouble for both (see the two mentioned articles above), especially with the aim of Wallstreet getting rid off the City of London´s dominance.

boris-johnson

Boris Johnson

Observing the two leading figures of the successful Brexit campaign, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, leaving the front of the political arena after their „victory“ with the mentioned political implications some sinister speculations come to my mind: Mission accomplished? Such a behavior one might expect from people who are acting on orders.

Is it purely an incident that Johnson – who appears like the „British Trump“ – had dual citizenship, UK and US (being born to English parents in the City of New York), notwithstanding the fact that in February 2015 he announced the will to give the US citizenship up? Is it only coincidental that his father Stanley Johnson is a former employee of World Bank on which the US has a strong grip? Is it only an incident that his stepfather was the US Historian Nicholas Wahl?

nigel-farage-2

Nigel Farage

Well, also details of Nigel Farages´s life make me ponder too. It´s not so much the fact that he was 2014 to be seen in an advertisement the bookmaker Paddy Power, but rather the fact that his book “The Purple Revolution: The Year That Changed Everything“ (the US are by the way “Master of Colored Revolutions) was published by Biteback Publishing, who´s co owner is Michael Ashcroft. Lord Ashcroft is a former deputy chairman of the Conservative Party and the 74th richest person in the UK, which isn´t that much important in this context, but what could make one ponder again is the fact that he is closely linked to ADT Security Services which is the largest security company in the US and Canada!

Now Farage, stepping back as head of UKIP, has announced, that he “wants his life back”! He´s claiming that he´s got death threats:

http://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/686146/Strain-family-life-death-threats-Nigel-Farage-Ukip-leader-resignation

But that doesn´t prevent him from enjoying a comfortable existence on the funds of the European Parliament! Job not yet fully done?

Anyway, let me make it clear, those are only speculations, but on basis of irrefutable connections. When it comes to Russia, in the Western media all kind of unproven speculations are “allowed”, I allow myself these speculations declaring them to be: speculations!

And to put this straight again: there are very good and honorable reasons to be against the EU and its antidemocratic elements, there is a great need for another way of having European countries cooperate for peace and progress. But this seems also clear: as bad as the condition of the EU is, the US Power Elite has obviously its own reasons to blow it up!

Andreas Schlüter

My articles on the USA: https://wipokuli.wordpress.com/2014/02/13/list-of-my-articles-on-the-usa/

As I have written a few days ago I was highly astonished that the US Empire, truly spoken the US Power Elite, „allowed“ the outcome of the Brexit-Vote (http://tinyurl.com/zkk8746). I had to reassess the case. I had simply thought that the grip of the US Power Elite on the UK is almost total, as one could think seeing the UK often acting as the prolonged arm of the US in the European Union. And moreover the US has done a lot to make the EU a vassal union for their interest. This lead to my analytical mistake about a strong US interest to prevent the Brexit.

paul-craig-roberts

Paul Craig Roberts

Obviously Paul Craig Roberts is still on that line.

He is convinced that this previous US strategy of the EU for better control by „Big Brother“ is continuing till today and believes that would mean that Washington opposes the Brexit,

http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2016/06/22/brexit-what-is-it-about-paul-craig-roberts/:

Opposition to Brexit is based on two powerful interests of Washington.

One is the interests of the New York banks and Wall Street to eliminate the UK as a financial center competitor. This blatant fact has escaped the notice of the City and the Bank of England.“

And this was also the fact that escaped me. But Roberts is convinced that the US Power Elite and Wallstreet trust on the pressure by the EU on the UK to adopt the Euro:

In order to trick the UK into joining the EU, the British were given special privileges. However, these privileges cannot last forever. The EU process is one of political integration. As I reported years ago, Jean-Claude Trichet, at that time the president of the European Central Bank, said that to complete the political integration of Europe, the fiscal policies of member states would be centralized. It is impossible to centralize fiscal policies if the UK is an independent financial center with its own central bank and currency.“

It might quite well have been that Cameron thought there would be a narrow victory for the „stay inside“ option which would make sure to be saved from such pressure.

Where I think Roberts goes totally wrong is the belief that the US Power Elite wants to keep the EU „safe“:

The other powerful interest is the interest of Washington to prevent one country’s exit from leading to the exit of other countries. As CIA documents found in the US National Archives make clear, the EU was a CIA initiative, the purpose of which is to make it easy for Washington to exercise political control over Europe. It is much easier for Washington to control the EU than 28 separate countries. Moreover, if the EU unravels, so likely would NATO, which is the necessary cover for Washington’s aggression.“

As true as the fact is, that those days the CIA had a strong hand in the European unification, combined with this is Roberts´ belief that the erosion of the EU would lead to the failing of NATO and thus reduce the danger of a big US lead war. In deed the crumbling of NATO would be an advantage for mankind and a step to peace. But it is questionable whether those things are really linked. We shouldn´t forget that Turkey and Greece were both NATO members even at a time when there were enormous tensions between them (on which the US capitalized).

With this expectation he is surely right,

http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2016/06/24/the-brexit-vote-paul-craig-roberts/:

Here is what the British can likely expect: The Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan, and George Soros will conspire to attack the British pound, driving it down and terrorizing the British economy.“

It must have slipped him that this is made easy by the Brexit-Vote´s outcome, weakening the City of London. Moreover the breaking away of Scotland from the UK is getting more likely which would convert Great Britain into „Small Britain“.

And also seemingly Roberts is not fully aware of this: with the large scale deindustrialization of the US as well as the UK continental Europe is still a strong center of Industry, having a natural tendency to follow its own interest in a Eurasian cooperation on the long run. And the Brits had done something quite ugly (in the eyes of the US Power Elite) they joined the China-backed Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) which is also connected to the monumental project of the „Iron Silk Road“, meant to deepen cooperation between China, Russia and Europe:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/11476533/Joining-Chinas-World-Bank-is-in-UKs-national-interest-depsite-Washington-anger.html

And likewise important, the Euro – true, if the UK would be forced into would possibly weaken the City of London, but only if – has developed into a great „burden“ to the US being a really competing currency.

So, what if the US Power Elite has come to the conclusion: it´s time to blow up what we´ve built to control Europe better, since it has developed a dynamics which is now an obstacle to our world dominating strategy? A Europe pushed into complicated conflicts among the various states might also be easier prevented from slipping into a Eurasian cooperation and they might always call „Big Brother“ to mediate in their quarrels. And to this perspective fits the US strategy (in which stupid European governments have helped again and again) to create a „Ring of Fire“ around Europe from Libya through Africa and Near & Middle East to the Ukraine, moving millions of people (miserable poor victims of the warmongers) into Europe and creating enormous problems and conflicts between European states as well as within the European societies. As far as this aspect is concerned, this is my suspicion since quite some time.

And we have a „Neocon Crown Witness“ to this strategic concept, George Friedman, founder of Stratfor (retired from it 2015), presenting a speech at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeLu_yyz3tc

george-friedman

George Friedman

That man is presenting the essence of his book „Flashpoints Europe“ (http://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/219860/flashpoints-by-george-friedman/9780307951137/). In the book as well as in his speech at the Chicago Council he outlines „future developments“ in Europe in a way as if this would come out of Europe itself, but in deed he´s presenting what the US Power Elite has „in the pipe“ for Europe. Besides he dwells on the fact that his Jewish family survived the terrible Nazi occupation of East Europe to attribute more moral authority to his presentation but deflates that totally by showing a cynic that exposes the complete absence of moral consequences from that sad history. This is demonstrated especially by praising Reagan´s concept of making countries (like Iran and Iraq) fighting and people kill each other (hear him at the Chicago Council).

So, if you hear this staunch Neocon Friedman, you know at which point the US Power Elite (now clearly dominated by the Neocons, even in the Democratic Party – demonstrated by their spearhead Hillary Clinton, http://tinyurl.com/zy4t6er) has reached: Blow the EU up!

So, I fear this great Analyst Paul Craig Roberts might still go very wrong in his assessment of US politics towards Brexit and towards US strategy for Europe!
