US Politics, Russia, China and Europe, Madness and Strategies

The Presidents of the two militarily most powerful – and antagonistic- countries, together holding about ninety percent of world´s nuclear armament, meet and US politicians as well as European politicians are going wild instead of jubilating that the dangers of a “nuclear Armageddon” are getting reduced. In the US the President is blamed for not being loyal to its secret services, which try to smear him with absurd “Russia-Gate” accusations including accusations_of_treason (it should not be forgotten into how many elections_abroad_the_US_have_interfered) One might presume that loyalty has to go the other way round. A German “political analyst”, Elmar Thevesen, is even calling_for_coup against Trump. Permanent fire against a US President from domestic political circles as well as from close allies of this intensity the world has hardly ever seen. Is this only “Bowling for Madness”, or is there more behind?

Digging a bit deeper

The demand that the President should be loyal to his secret services which provided US Presidents many a times with false information expose the fact that a US President is far from being “the most powerful man on Earth”, but is supposed to be a puppet of the “Deep_State”. Strange enough (or not really) is that Trump is not accused of “Israel Gate”, though real “Israel_Firsters” like Sheldon_Adelson led Trump to collusions that allowed Netanyahu to boast that he_made_Trump_dump_the_Iran_Deal (leaving aside that Trump´s son in law is close to Netanyahu)!

Actually Trump (leaving also aside his pimp like character and hypertrophic ego) started his campaign with three important points, which even attracted left leaning people (who were aware of Clinton´s snake like character). Point one was his declared desire for détente with Russia, point two was his announced desire to get away from Regime-Change wars. Point three was the aim of reconstructing the industrial basis of the US.

All this wasn´t really based on any altruistic trait, but he was with all his ignorance clever enough to see that it is not desirable to survive a nuclear war (risked by the Neocons´ war games) in a bunker to find a destroyed world afterwards. He saw also how expensive the permanent wars are getting for the US society and those ones who might vote for him. Well, as for point three, it included putting the “Free Trade Religion” into question. The last aspect would have been more important for the Southern Hemisphere, since the ruling class of the US profits a lot from Free Trade (and wanted to force TTIP on the EU).

But he realized soon that he´d face a deadly danger from the side of the Neocons and the Deep State. So he became fully determined to slip under Israel´s and MOSSAD´s protection by making Israel´s regional agenda his own. That might also have strengthened his plan for détente with Russia since Israel´s power elite harbors some dreams of getting Russia on its side concerning the limitation of Iran´s influence in Syria (which_might_be_really_unrealistic).

Strange that many European_politicians_got_wild first over his plan to include Russia again into the G7 to become again G8. But, maybe they are very well aware that the real power is still held by the Neocons! But, maybe the whole affair is more complicated, maybe Trump could in the end become the US Power Elite´s “Plan_B”? Or are there more fractions within the US Power Elite and he might have some higher ranking support additional to the “Israel connection”? We might have to even dig deeper.

Digging to the Ground

The late German Professor Krysmanski_drew_a_fitting_picture of the Power Elite having gone from the general “Capitalist Class” to a super concentrated tiny number of the “Super Rich” (in money and power) forming almost feudalist circles. Since the days of Eisenhower already warning of the “Military_Industrial_Complex” this process has even gone further. That “Super Class” (not in number but in power) is united in the desire for world control. But they still have different revenues and prefer different strategies and tactics to that end.

Also the Super Rich need “intellectual servants” which might even be more important than the “functional Elite”. There are the “Think Tanks” being of great importance. They formed two different schools, the openly brutal “Neoconservatives” (members of them ironically originally coming from more left leaning circles), for example the “Project_For_The_New_American_Century”, and the more manipulative school of “Soft Power”. They liked to have “things done by others”, counting more on economic force and political infiltration.

Under Obama´s Presidency there was almost a hidden war_about_the_option_of_an_Iran_war. During the last years the Neocons gained more and more power, partly taking over the Democratic Party (formerly more associated with the “Soft Power”) especially through their “spear_head” Hillary Clinton.

Now, there might still be a third though smaller faction within the US Power Elite coming more from the classical industrial sector and from “Real Estate”. In part of that section more “realistic” conceptions about the need for an industrial basis for the US and some old tendencies from US “Isolationism” might have survived. No doubt that that section is also connected to older (dangerous) concepts of the US society and might have links to “near fascist” and racist anti-left mobsters. But there might well be some support from that side for Trump (despite strong tendencies among them for “Anti-Judaism”). Anyway, that section might find it easier to have an own view of a presently more multi-polar world (which doesn´t mean they would reject the chance for total world domination – in the end!).

Different Factions of the US Power Elite Concerning Strategy and Tactics – One Night Mare

The “real_nightmare” of almost all of the US Power Elite – which is following the concepts of the British geographer Halford_Mackinder and his “Heartland_Theory” – is the chance of the “Eurasian Cooperation” pushed by China and Russia, manifested in the “Iron Silk Road”, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the efforts especially on the side of the BRICS states to break away from the oil-dollar connection. This project of the Eurasian Cooperation is of no little attraction also to parts of European Capital. That is why the US is also somehow “waging war against the EU”. The “Ring of Fire” around Europe from Libya through Africa and Middle East into the Ukraine is also meant as a barrier against European participation in the Eurasian Cooperation.

The biggest part of the US Power Elite is dreaming of a repetition. That is the repetition of the way the US forced the Soviet Union to its knees by arms race. They want to do this with Russia and China – including all risks of WW III and a nuclear Armageddon.

Maybe Trump´s Backers Want to Revive Another old Concept

Maybe Trump really first and foremost sees the deadly dangers from a military confrontation with Russia (endangering his and his family´s life as well). But maybe his backers might include people having a real geo-strategic thinking who really have a strategy directed towards that nightmare of a Eurasian Cooperation. No doubt, generally unprincipled Trump could be directed by advisers without himself even seeing the full picture. That section of his backers could try to really make him “Plan_B” and then “sell” it also to more of the US Power Elite.

For the first part of the Cold War the US were confronted with an alliance between the Soviet Union and China. This alliance was surely burdened by the contradictions over who should lead the “Socialist Bloc” to victory. Should it be Russia (which had colonized great parts of East Asia) or China with its thousands of years old culture, having again come to its feet by massive support from the Soviet Union (also damaging Chinese pride). Ideological splits came with Khrushchew´s policy of “De-Stalinization” and SU´s policy of “peaceful coexistence”, thus by different treatment on the side of the US other than the US-treatment of China those days. All lead to the dramatic “Sino-Soviet_split”. There were a number of crisis and even military confrontations in 1969. But the US might have had a covert hand also in firing contradictions.

Anyway, Nixon then saw the chance to make the split final by approaching China and leaving the SU aside. And Milton_Friedman did a lot to “infect” China with Capitalism in a way making it more “revisionist” than China had accused the SU of being previously. Possibly part of Trump´s backers dream of that repetition, but instead of turning now to China (now the economically stronger part of the Russia-China alliance and world´s second biggest economy) turning to Russia in a more “constructive way” (as the split between China and Russia started those days) trying to alienate Russia from China. They could likewise be dreaming to put Europe (where the governments were too much of vassals to take the chance of more closeness with Russia in time) under more “psychological” pressure and busy Europe even more with itself than “Brexit” did already.

Now Trump´s backers might see the chance to make him the real “Plan B” of greater parts of the US Power Elite. But Trump will have to compromise especially with the Neocons in many other ways, possibly including a war against Iran which might as well lead to a much more “extended war theatre” that could lead to an even greater conflict.

Strategy: “Fragmentation” of the “Old World”

European Politics in Disarray

It appears that the dominant factions of the US Power Elite have such a strong grip on the European Elites that those ones are not even able to follow national (Capitalist) interest, much less the interest of the “normal people” in peace and a more just society. The “Deep State” of the US extends into the deep state of European countries, particular Germany. The history of the “Gladio Network” should be well known by now. And there might be efforts to create more conflicts not only between European states, but also government crisis and social conflicts within the various European countries. It should be noticed that former Trump advisor Steve Bannon (surely belonging to the more strategically oriented Trump backer circles) will try to create more far_right_wing_movements in Europe. We might see more clashes between Soros inspired pseudo-Green circles (calling for “open borders for all”) and rightist (or fascist) movements, together being a cover up for the fundamental problems.

What “common” People have to know

We´re living in the age of “psychological_fragmentation”. Wild gone globalized US lead neoliberal “Super-Capitalism” is about to drive humanity at least to part extinction. Anyone who wants a better world for the majority of mankind has to know: we have to wage a three front struggle against this.

One front is the peace-question, the second front is the front for socio-economic justice and the third front is the ecological question (including climate). All these problems are closely interconnected. As long as the various forces in this struggle are fragmented (and been played one against the other) there is zero chance. The highly industrialized countries have a key role in the global development. Uprising against the capitalist forces in this world region is most important.

As long as people struggling for humanity just count on “Western Democracy”, their struggle is designed to fail. We´re no more living in a Democracy, but rather in a “Demoncracy”. Extended social upheaval is necessary and organizing independently from the existing political parties. At present the peace struggle is central but has to include the two other fronts.

For Europe it is important to have as a first step a “Revolution_against_US-dominace” and come to sound terms with Russia and China. The US has to be prevented from creating more fire in Europe´s surrounding. Likewise France and Britain have to be confronted for their strong participation in that “Ring of Fire” (especially_France_being_deeply_involved_into_the_plunder_of_Africa). If this “game” goes on the masses suffering from that onslaught in Europe´s surrounding will not be prevented from coming to the “eye of the hurricane” (Europe), dreaming of being more safe there, but possibly unwillingly creating open Fascism there.

Irrespective whether Trump survives the plans of his backers or whether he´ll be substituted by Vice President Pence or any other puppet of this or that faction of the US Power Elite, Capitalism has reached a stage, where humanity´s survival is massively at stake.

Are the US Empire and Israel working on WW III?

To be precise: I can not really imagine that the US Power Elite – the Deep_State – or Israel´s Power Elite are purposely trying to bring about a full scale World War including nuclear Armaggedon. But the continental European governments of 1914 did surely also not want what then really happened. It was their self overestimation that made them bring it about.

Does the US Empire use Israel to provoke Russia with impunity?

Already on the 9^th of April a missile_strike_at_Syria_t4_airbase took place, leaving seven members of Iran`s Revolutionary Guards dead. Remark in between: Iranians like Rusians are in Syria with the consent the Syrian government! 0bviously the attack on the base was carried out by Israel. Astonishingly this violation of International Law (like the US/GB/French attack following the “Douma_False_Flag”) was left without a strong answer by Russia, being Syria´s protector, puzzling also Paul_Craig_Roberts as well. Now they did it again! On the 29^th of April they hit even harder, according to Haaretz the pro-Syrian alliance reported 11 Iranians dead and 200 missiles destroyed. No doubt that this is a war of aggression. And no strong answer by Russia to be heard yet!

At whom is this provocation aiming?

Probably it was a multifunctional provocation. Is it only a provocation by Israel or are the Neocons and possibly Trump involved too? Israel seems to try getting_Iran_to_retaliate as to finally achieve war against Iran which it longs for so long. Russia has been put to a dilemma as well. Does it leave that ruthless action unanswered Russia looses face as Syria´s protecting power. Would it retaliate against Israel, the US will unite their European vassals in an uproar: „Israel in danger of being destroyed!“ and all such nonsense.

Playing with Fire

Anyway, the only way Russia can stop this effort to „turn the tide“ in Syria on the side of Israel and the West, is to threaten (and in case fulfill it) for the next time to hit Israel´s facilities from where the attack may be launched again. If Russia let go the destruction of Syria will continue. Stupid European governments should know that if the destruction goes on they´ll be confronted with numbers of refugees they´ve never dreamt of in their nightmares.

As for the Iran case it seems that the European governments see the danger and want to stick to the treaty made with Iran. But the question is whether they are clear enough to signal Israel that it can not count on Europe in case of escalation with Iran and Russia.

No absurdity is too weird!

On the side the the US and Israel the smearing of Iran is in full swing. No absurdity is too weird not to be thrown into the game. Now a US judge demands Iran_to_pay_6_billion for victim families of the Nine Eleven attacks! One must bear in mind that the official narrative blames Al Qaeda for the attacks (which were definitely_an_Inside_Job). Al Qaeda is a (US created) Sunni organization, totally hostile to Iran´s Shia regime.

Netanyahu presents an absurd show that is supposed to “proof” Iran is still working on a nuclear bomb just like Powell gave “proof” Sadam Hussein working on “weapons of mass destruction”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4zar3AuRv0

But hear the Iranian Foreign Minister on the case:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYOnXL6R-B8&feature=youtu.be

Obviously Trump who wanted to fight the Power Elite is now fully encircled by exactly those people (the Neocons) whom he wanted to control and by the Zionists (with the help of his son in law). There is nothing anymore about detente with Russia and abandoning regime change wars. Where Obama was cautious not to get driven by those people into_an_Iran_war, Trump is (self) trapped. And Macron was almost made Trump´s poodle.

The US Power Elite together with their British allies have organized a media war against Russia based not only on the absurd allegation “Russia hacked the US elections” but also on the “Skripal_Setup”.

The Obscene Dreams of Israel´s Power Elite

After all it seems Israel´s Power Elite is dreaming of the big war in the region in order to expand (blueprint: Golan Heights), since they “have to protect their existence”. And also it seems they know Saudi Arabia on their side, also indicated by strange_remarks_of_Saudi_Crown_Prince_Bin_Salman. So they might speculate to occupy all territory held by Shiite forces in course of such a war. What a deadly dangerous speculation on their side! And there are efforts to get Israel a seat in the UN Security Council, making it more of an Insecurity Council than it already is.

The Geo-political Implications

Since 2001 the US (Neocon) Power Elite wants to “take care” of “seven_countries”, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran, as revealed by former General Wesley Clarke (only his remarks about Africa are born of ignorance). They are far behind the time table, but still on it. In the final analysis it´s the nightmare_of_the_US_Power_Elite, the efforts on the side oft China and Russia for a Eurasian Cooperation which is driving US politics. Since the US are economically too weak they can only apply the strategy to turn Near and Middle East into a region of chaos to serve as a barrier against this cooperation. The turmoil they´ve created in Ukraine is serving the same purpose.

Israel as been said is dreaming of a big war in the region as an alibi for further territorial expansion. What makes the development more dangerous is the blackmail_power_Israel_has_over_the_USA especially gained by Israel´s insight into the Inside Job Nine Eleven.

What is a half official reason for Israel´s interventions is the Iranian presence in Syria. But the Iranians were drawn in because of the efforts by the US and their vassals including Saudi Arabia to destroy Syria.

Now Israel´s delusional so called “Defence Minister” has even dared_to_threaten_Russia_not_to_protect_Syria against Israel´s attacks. With Paul Craig Roberts I ask myself whether Russia_knows_what_the_US_are!

Europeans should get aware that their vassal behavior towards the US is not the only deadly danger but the same attitude towards Israel is likewise a terrible danger too. I think Paul Craig Roberts is really right with his article “What_can_be_done” saying: “If Europe breaks away from Washington’s control, there is hope for life. If not, we are as good as dead.”

G20 Africa Partnership Conference: Some Questions, also concerning Paul Kagame

On the 12^th of May in connection with the G20 meeting in Hamburg there was the G20 Africa Partnership Conference taking place in Berlin. A whole number of African Presidents attending, a lot was talked about partnership and development.

What Kind of Partnership?

Western soldiers roaming all over Africa, a whole number of them under the umbrella of US_AFRICOM (violating the spirit of African liberation and African_Unity) European soldiers as well, a lot of them French. The West is pretending to make Africa “safe”. Safe for what? There are many indications that they´re just trying to make Africa safe for Western plunder or, where their plunder isn´t yet actual, to destabilize and de-state as a preparation for more future plunder. Is that a “wicked” suspicion?

What about the financial colonialism of the French in Africa? That alone is a sound proof that “Colonialism_is_alive”. What happened when Gaddafi tried to bring an African gold currency on the way? Clinton_emails_reveal_the_true_motive for the “intervention” in Libya, where the French cooperated closely with the US. From the repercussions of the Libyan drama came turmoil in Mali, giving the French more chances. Make Africa “safe” from IS? One has to know West_created_the_Islamic_State for its own ends! Make Africa “safe for Democracy”? Maybe with uranium_coated_amunition? And to have a Democracy as rotten as in the US? Be sure, as long as the US Power Elite has the leading hand in the “West´s partnership with Africa” there will be no such thing as true Democracy created by them!

Paul Kagame, the “symbolic figure” of Western Partnership with Africa

The real symbol of that deadly partnership, which is in deed the new_scramble_for_Africa is the Rwandan President Kagame, who delivered a speech at the conference, more or less praising Neoliberalism. This man has been celebrated throughout the West and throughout the years since 1994 as the “savior of Rwanda and of the Tutsis”, which was rather less than “half_of_the_truth_but_a_whole_lie”. In reality Kagame and his RPF waged a murderous war of aggression (according to Nuremberg principles the utmost crime) against Rwanda, which he did from Uganda, with heavy support from the US and many Western countries. Following almost a million died in Rwanda, but many more, possibly over eight million people lost their lives in DR_Congo., in fact as many as have died during the time Congo was the “private” Colony of Belgian King Leopold II. This was tolerated based on the pretext that the Rwandan tragedy would have been an organized Genocide attempt by the Hutu majority against the Tutsi. With this deformed story the RPF legitimized the invasion of Congo (together with Uganda), pretending to get hold of the “genocidaires”. What was the real aim?

Proxy Colonialism, but Kagame might be Exchanged one Day

The aim of this (ongoing) invasion is the riches of DR Congo. Congo is full of Minerals. With the computer age the mineral Coltan has reached overall importance for mobile phones, computers and that like (of which the public should have more_knowledge). Already in 2002 the amount of stolen_goods_was_monumental, no matter that 2011 in a lousy little theater show Rwanda_repatriated_90_tons_of_Congolese-minerals having been “smuggled” into Rwanda. But in the end US_companies_are_exploiting_the_Congo. Actually DR Congo is on top of all deadly hells of this Earth, its fate somehow mirrored by West_Papua being plundered by Indonesia in favor of the West.

To broaden the power basis for his grip on Congo, Kagame even seems_meddling_in_neighbouring_Burundi. Obviously the aim was to create a situation, which could be presented to the world as reason for a Rwandan intervention in order to “save the Burundian Tutsi”, possibly even to unite the two countries under RPF leadership.  But the US Empire seems now not too much in favour of such developments, especially in the present situation of conflicts within the US Power Elite.

Anyway, it is more and more difficult for Kagame and his regime to hide the crimes and atrocities in Congo, partly reflected in the UN_Project_Mapping_on_DR_Congo, though a leaked_first_draft was later on softened (due to US pressure). Very delicate is that Kagame fights growing Western critics by the confession that he joined the West in corruption to plunder Congo in an interesting speech (at 6:26), really remarkable:

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

But, in the end even it will not be his crimes, not even because of a murder_possibly_commited_on_a_BBC_journalist in London by his murder_inc, for which the US Power Elite will drop him one day. It might be for his “arrogant” belief that the henchman can do without his master! The fact that a Canadian company helps to build a first_coltan_Processing_plant in Rwanda (paid_for_by_the_genocide_inCongo) doesn´t really mean it will please his US master. Also the Chinese involvement into the East-African_standard_gauge_network including Rwanda might also possibly make his master´s eyebrow raise. Mobutu wasn´t really rewarded for little flirts with China and North-Korea. But, if it comes to that point, the US Power Elite will have Kagame toppled with “love for Democracy” on their lips!

One thing is clear, Africa has long struggles_for_freedom_and_social_justice ahead! In these strugglesalso for genuine development and industrialization the natural allies will surely be other African countries and in general the BRICS states. The Western countries as dominated by the US and Neoliberalism with its “freetrade religion” would only be partners for eternal dependency and resource slavery!

Colonialism Alive and Well, Better Say as Bad as Ever! Part 1 – Der Kolonialismus lebt und feiert fröhliche Urständ! Teil 1

Deutsche Version unten

3 faces exchanged in meantime! – 3 Gesichter sind inzwischen ausgetauscht!

Colonialism Alive!

Naive people talk about “Post-Colonialism”, everyone really going into the topic will laugh bitterly. NATO soldiers all over Africa, “fighting Terrorism” for example against IS (which is sponsored by US & Al). US_AFRICOM expanding like cancer and being portrayed with US allies (better called vassals) as the “fire_brigade”. An outstanding role among the European US vassals is played by France. France´s colonialism was for a long time relatively independent, so to speak “in its own right”, but the country is today mostly “in line” with the US strategy. As a reward for its compliance it profits from US protection and is allowed to suck from its former Subsaharan colonies.

Listen to the open words by Sarkozy:

„France can not allow its former colonies to create their own currency to have total control over their central banks . If this happens, it would be a catastrophe for the public treasury that will lead France to the rank of 20th world economic power. There is no question, therefore, of letting the French colonies of Africa have their own currencies.“

https://off-guardian.org/2017/05/25/nicolas-sarkozy-no-way-to-let-the-french-colonies-of-africa-have-their-own-currencies/

& http://www.mirastnews.com/2016/01/nicolas-sarkozy-pas-question-de-laisser-les-colonies-francaises-d-afrique-avoir-leurs-propres-monnaies.html

One important reason for France to be very “helpful” in the US-lead destruction of Libya was the Libyan effort to create a gold currency for Africa. By the way, it was Clinton who made Obama order Libya´s destruction. “We came, we saw, he died! Hahahah!”, were her laughing_words afterwards.

And actually it should be mentioned that she had full support in her campaign by people (like Robert Kagan and Paul Wolfowitz) who were contemplating in the paper “Rebuilding America´s Defenses” about “biological_race_war”. Who is aware of those concepts might shiver when getting across the Ebola-outbreak!

And not to forget, Clinton´s husband had a leading hand in the destruction of Rwanda_and_Congo!

Colonialism dead? No, going stronger than ever! And at the core of it is Globalized Capitalism. Long_struggles ahead of Africa!

Deutsche Version

Der Kolonialismus lebt und feiert fröhliche Urständ! Teil 1

Naive Menschen reden vom “nachkolonialen Zeitalter”, aber jeder, der sich intensiv mit der Sache befasst, kann darüber nur bitter lachen! US_AFRICOM breitet sich krakenartig in Afrika aus, unter US-Führung kämpft die NATO gegen “den Terror”, der insbesondere vom “Islamischen Staat” kommt, den die US und Verbündete geschaffen haben und weiter sponsorn. Überall präsentieren die USA und ihre Verbündeten (besser Vasallen) sich als “Feuerwehr_in_Afrika”.

Eine besondere Rolle dabei spielt Frankreich, das lange Zeit einen eigenständigen (Neo)-Kolonialismus betrieb, sich aber nun weitgehend in die US-Strategie eingefügt hat. Zum “Dank” dafür darf es seine ehemaligen Kolonien weiter aussaugen. Dies geschieht durch das CFA_Franc System, das das Finanzsystem dieser Länder völlig in Frankreichs Hände legt.

Man lese die Worte des ehemaligen französischen Staatspräsidenten Sarkozy:

„Frankreich kann seinen früheren Kolonien nicht erlauben, ihre eigene Währung zu schaffen, um die totale Kontrolle über ihre Zentralbanken zu haben. Sollte das geschehen, wäre es eine Katastrophe für das (französische) Finanzsystem, die Frankreich auf Platz 20 in der Weltwirtschaft verweisen würde. Daher kommt es nicht infrage, dass Frankreich seine (ehemaligen) Kolonien in Afrika ihre eigene Währung haben lässt.“

Daher hat Frankreich tatkräftig den USA geholfen, die Libyen_kaputtgemacht haben, denn von Libyen ging der Versuch aus, Afrika eine Goldwährung zu geben. Eine Aktion, zu der Clinton Obama gebracht hat. Ihre Worte nach der Untat waren: “Wir kamen, wir sahen, er starb! Hahaha!”

Nicht unerwähnt sollte bleiben, dass Clinton tatsächlich die Speerspitze der Neocons (US Neokonservatismus) in der Demokratischen Partei ist. Clinton hat die Neocon Victoria Nuland („fuck the EU“) in die Obama-Administration gebracht. Nuland ist die Frau von Robert Kagan (der inzwischen öffentlich für Clinton wirbt). Kagan ist Mitbegründer des „Project for the New American Century“. Um die „Visionen“ dieser Neocons vom „Project“ zu begreifen, sollte man deren Papier „Rebuilding America´s Defenses“ vom September 2000 sehr genau studieren (Autor u. a. Paul Wolfowitz). Dort findet sich auf S. 60 eine besonders bedrohliche Passage zu möglichen Konzepten der US-Politik in Afrika (und Asien):

„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

Übersetzt heißt das: „Und fortgeschrittene Formen der biologischen Kriegsführung, die auf bestimmte Gentypen „zielen“ können, könnten die biologische Kriegsführung aus dem Reich des Terrors zu einem nützlichen politischen Instrument wandeln.“

Hier geht es sicher nicht um den Genotypus des weißen Angelsachsen, sondern Afrika und Asien sind im Visier! Dabei kann die spezifische „Angriffsfähigkeit“ natürlich auch durch eine „Anwendungs-Region“ ersetzt werden. Es handelt sich jedenfalls um die direkte Fortsetzung der Träume von der „schwarzen Bombe“ im „Project_Coast“ (geleitet von „Dr_Death“) des damaligen Apartheid-Regimes, um „biologischen Rassenkrieg“!

Ebenso muss erwähnt werden, dass Clintons Mann Bill Clinton eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Zerstörung von Ruanda_und_der_DR_Kongo spielte.

Viele europäische Regierungen spielen bei der Zerstörung Afrikas und der übrigen Umgebebung Europas immer wieder mit, ganz so, als könnte dieses Zerstörungswerk nicht auch zur „Sprengung_Europas“ führen! Solange die Destabilisierungs-Strategie gegen und Ausplünderung von Afrika weitergeht, werden auch die Flüchtlingströme nicht abreißen. Afrika hat jedenfalls noch einen langen Kampf um seine wirkliche Befeiung vor sich! Europa und Deutschland spielen dabei bisher eine sehr unrühmliche, um nicht zu sagen verbrecherische Rolle.

Der Kolonialismus beendet? Nein, er ist stärker denn je. Und der Kern der Katastrophe? Der globalisierte Kapitalismus!

Western Democracy or Demoncracy? – Westliche Demokratie oder Dämonen-Herrschaft?

Deutsche Version unten

We´ve seen US elections leaving the choice between “HIV_and_Ebola” to the voters, means between a proven warmonger, Wallstreet darling and Neocon puppet on one side and an egomaniac suprematist lunatic (who at least promised peace with Russia and end of regime change wars). Clinton lost (according to US laws and regulations), Trump, turning out to be the personification of Kissinger´s “Madman_theory”, won. Still we can not know whether this was an accident (since the real US Neocon Power Elite seemed to be boiling about Trump´s success) or whether the lunatic being now on the strings of the Power Elite is personified “Plan B”, or whether he´s slowly drugged to madness in order to have an impeachment leading to extended unrest allowing suspension of Democracy´s remains. Anyway, he seems “on_track” now.

In France voters will be faced with a similar dilemma, the choice between a frightening arch-nationalist woman, Marine_Le_Pen, endangering the ethnic peace in that important West European country, or a neo-liberal ex Rothchild banker, Emmanuel_Macron, who´d dismantle what remains of social security in France, being sold to the public as “left-liberal”! In less than a week we´ll know which face the disaster will wear.

In Germany the thing is somewhat “easier” to assess: the xenophobic “Alternative für Deutschland”, the AfD, most probably secretly pushed by “Big Brother” in various ways, will frighten the majority of people on one side, the defamation of the left, DIE_LINKE, and their positions on the other side will scare people too. And the mainstream media do everything to connect the rightist AfD as well as the left “DIE LINKE” to “bad, bad” Russia and Putin!

The result will be without doubt: continuation of the “Grand_Coalition”! With the grand coalition (no doubt that Merkel´s party will be the stronger partner) Germany will remain chained to the “Trans-Atlantic” bindings and will be an obedient vassal to NATO´s war policy though the majority of Germans is against military involvement into foreign battle fields. In fact even the German conservatives are not as obedient as they are out of real conviction. The interest of German capital (to which both big parties are closely linked) is rather looking at the chances from “Eurasian Cooperation”, but again and again they are scared to death by “Terror”. In fact the demons are ruling!

In all one must state: what is called “Democracy” has nothing to do with real decisions by the people for the people, but appears to the analyst as sort of a “well staged” theater play. The script is written, the actors know their parts. But the box at the front edge of the stage, where the prompter sits, is directed to the public signaling where to clap and where to “boo” That part is the part of the media! And, by the way, at times the play includes that the public will be directed to beat each other fiercely instead of entering the stage and chase the lousy actors to hell!

Deutsche Version

Westliche Demokratie oder Dämonen-Herrschaft?

Wir haben die US-Wahlen erlebt, die den Wählern die Wahl zwischen HIV_und_Ebola ließ, sprich, zwischen einer Kriegstreiberin, Wall Street-Puppe und Neocon-Marionette einerseits, und einem egozentrischen, tendenziell rassistischen und großmäuligen Irren (der immerhin Frieden mit Russland und ein Ende der Regime-Change-Kriege versprach) andererseits. Entsprechend den Regeln und Gesetzen der USA hat die Personifikation von Kissingers „Madman-Theorie“ gesiegt. Es ist nicht endgültig klar, ob dies ein schwerer Unfall war (die US-Machtelite hat immerhin deutlich geschäumt) oder ob Trump der „Plan B“ ist, vielleicht gar heimlich unter Drogen gesetzt wird, um mit seiner Entfernung aus dem Amt Unruhen auszulösen, die es „erlauben“, mit den Resten der US-Demokratie Schluss zu machen. Immerhin, er scheint doch nun ziemlich „auf_Linie“ der US-Machtelite zu sein.

In Frankreich werden die Wähler nun vor die Wahl zwischen einer ziemlich rassistischen Ultra-Rechten, Marine_Le_Pen, die als Präsidentin den ethnischen Frieden in diesem wichtigen westeuropäischen Land ernsthaft gefährden könnte, und einem ex Rothschild-Banker, Emmanuel_Macron, der die Reste sozialer Sicherheit in Frankreich wegräumen würde, gestellt. Der Neoliberale Ex-Banker wird uns aber medial als „links-liberal“ verkauft. In weniger als einer Woche werden wir sehen, welche Maske die zukünftige französische Tragödie tragen wird.

In Deutschland ist das Situation für den Herbst relativ leicht einzuschätzen: die fremdenfeindliche „Alternative für Deutschgland“ verschreckt eine große Zahl von Menschen, die linke Alternative wird permanent diffamiert. Dabei wird medial viel getan, um gleichzeitig die AfD und DIE LINKE dicht an das „böse, böse“ Russland und den „schlimmen, schlimmen“ Putin zu rücken (der im Gegensatz zur „guten“ US-Machtelite immer woanders die Wahlen beeinflusst).

Es gehört nicht viel dazu, sich das Ergebnis auszurechnen. Kurze Zwischenfrage: wo ist „Super-Schulz“?! Es wird die große Koalition fortgesetzt werden, mit der SPD als Junior-Partner. Deutschland wird weiter an die „Transatlantische Partnerschaft“ gekettet bleiben, dazu verdammt auf die eine oder andere Weise an den NATO-Kriegsspielen beteiligt zu sein. Und das, obwohl die meisten Deutschen gegen Auslandseinsätze der Bundeswehr sind. Tatsächlich ist selbst das deutsche Kapital, dem beide große Parteien sehr verpflichtet sind, eher an einer „Eurasischen Kooperation“ interessiert, aber, der „Terror“ und die „Schock-Strategie“ lauern. Wird die Bundesregierung „aufmüpfig“, finden sich „Dinge zur Erinnerung“. Wieder einmal hat sich auch gezeigt, wie tief die „Gladio“ Strukturen in der Bundeswehr sitzen. Es regieren offenbar die Dämonen!

Alles in Allem muss man feststellen, das, was Demokratie genannt wird, ist nichts als ein wohlinszeniertes Theater. Das Skript ist geschrieben, die Schauspieler kennen ihre Rollen, nur die Muschel für die Souffleuse am vorderen Rand der Bühne ist nach vorne gerichtet. Von dort lassen die Medien das Publikum wissen, wann es zu klatschen und wann zu buhen hat. Ach, und nebenbei, hin und wieder ist auch das Publikum gehalten, gewalttätig übereinander herzufallen, anstatt die Bühne zu stürmen und die Schauspieler zum Teufel zu jagen!

Burkini: Are the Polititians in France Mad?

Bathing Costume 1890

France has a long history in colonialism and colonial and imperial wars, especially also in Near East (http://tinyurl.com/pznrayh). A different matter is that Frances´s secular traditions should be honoured despite of that. I also understand the ban of the burka if covering the face. I also agree that the extreme covering of women in some Muslim societies is a symbol of lacking freedom for women. Likewise the unnecessary uncovering of women in contrast to men in Western societies is also a symbol of degrading women to sex symbols.

Swim Suits around 1912

France´s Society going mad?!

France had – like Germany – a recent series of terror attacs. No matter who in the final analysis was behind it (http://tinyurl.com/zrwrk3k) it implicated young muslims who feel that their places of origin are degraded, occupied, war torn by the West. As much as they do in the final analysis the job Western Power Elites (particularly the US Power Elite) want them to do and as much as they should be warned of that (http://tinyurl.com/9bghg9n) it appears some people in France are very eager to provoke more of such stupid and cruel attacks (to have more reason for interventions?).

Europe shouldn´t be too proud of its „freedom“, around hundred years ago people in Europe were covered at bathing places in a similar way.

One can only warn the people of France: don´t tear your society more apart by some totally unnecessary symbolic acts of cultural Imperialism!

Geo-Politics: The Core of Crisis and Chaos, the Nightmares of the US Power Elite!

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.

& http://www.hangthebankers.com/united-states-facing-global-economic-isolation/

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:

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:

A Look at the French-German relation and cooperation

The fact that France and Germany share the same fate of being Terror stricken could be a reason to look at the relation between the two countries, which should be done here.

Coming (in case of Germany partly) from one mediaeval state, Charlemagne´s Empire, which was split after his son´s death, the relationship of the two countries saw many conflicts, which turned to be more complicated with the rise of Prussia which didn´t come from that common heritage.

The French Revolution was very ambivalent for the relation in as far as it raised democratic hopes in some German circles which were widely liquidated during French occupation of great parts of Germany by Napoleon. This again strengthened tendencies for German unity, which was finally the result of the Prussian led victory of German states against France in 1871, a triumph which left deep scares in France´s collective memory.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France%E2%80%93Germany_relations

Both World Wars left France against Germany victorious but only because of strong Anglo-Saxon support. 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 (Bundesrepublik Deutschland) 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 stripped off his official colonial empire (as happened to the Germans with theirs after WW I) though keeping (a disastrous) dominance in 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 within Europe became the “European Free Trade Association” ( EFTA). As much as European powers 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”. .

France tried to keep close control especially of its former African colonies, to part of them (especially Togo) and their colonial henchmen German conservatives like Franz Josef had close links, at times combined with economic interests of Strauß´s entourage.

Germany and France had close military cooperation which was even directed at nuclear efforts (Strauß being Minister of Defense – 1956 to 1962 – was also very eager to get a nuclear option not purely based on the US, but were so in the end). By and large the German French relationship was complicated because of France being very skeptical about the US whereas Germany was depending on the US to a high degree.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France%E2%80%93United_States_relations

The end of the cold war and the collapse of the Soviet bloc confronted France with the reunion of the two German states which was only tolerated (with pains as well by Thatcher´s GB but supported by the US) with the perspective of Germany being enshrined in a new European currency: the Euro (which GB didn´t join).

1990 to 1994 saw a very different approach of France and Germany to an African topic. France (surely out of own interest and a strategy still independent from the US) helped 1990 to rebuke the terrorist attack of Kagame/Museveni´s US backed invasion attempt into Rwanda, German polititians were on the opposite helpful in preparing and covering the second invasion of the terrorist RPF into Rwanda and the horror which followed for the DR Congo by Uganda´s and Kagame-Rwanda´s invasions (http://tinyurl.com/kkpvcf7).

In the US invasion of 2003 into Iraq based on lies France and Germany acted together trying to keep them out of that act against international law.

Things turned almost fundamentally with Sarkozy coming to office. Whereas Germany´s capital interests (still mostly based on production and the US turning more and more to finance capitalism) differed so much from the US that some reservation towards the US are to be detected France being obviously sceptical of Germany´s growing economic power turned more towards the US. France turned back to the integrated NATO Command.

When Libya was attacked by the US and NATO, Germany didn´t support the „No Fly Zone“ in the UN whereas France together with GB were in total support. After Hollande came to office the integration into the US imperial designs continued which is very obvious in case of Syria and Mali. Possibly Germany has been scared into a more supportive position by obvious „False Flag“ manifested in the Bag with the not exploding bomb found at Bonn Main Station (2012). This was the reminder to the German government by the US: „Boys and Girl, think of how nicely German Governments were behaving when they were still sitting in Bonn!“ (https://wipokuli.wordpress.com/2012/12/16/usa-unser-groser-bruder-und-willst-du-nicht-mein-bruder-sein/).

It is obvious: the French German relationship can only be understood to the full extend in context of the triangle France-US-Germany and from the question whether French and German national interests contrasting to US interests had to manifest themselves. This played an important role also in the Ukrainian crisis coming from the aggressive expansion of NATO to the East.

The determination of France and Germany to join with Russia in the efforts to calm down the Ukraine conflict, resulted in the Minsk II agreement. The leaders of Belarus, Russia, Germany, France, and Ukraine had met from 11^th to 12^th February 2015 – without the US being invited! After that was finalized the British Prime Minister Cameron was to be seen in front of a camera almost foaming from anger and indicating the Anglo-American fury about those efforts. In deed France and Germany had come to the conclusion that the Ukraine conflict wasn´t in Europe´s best interest (after having helped the US to start the mess). How important the Ukraine „game“ is, see the Neocon Think Tank man George Friedman on the Ukraine:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ablI1v9PXpI

Don´t mind the German subtitles!

So seeing the reactions of Cameron I made the prediction: „nasty things will come to France and Germany!“

Staged „Prevented“ Terror Attacks – Staged Terror?

Preface: open Words by the New York Times

On June 7^th an article by Eric Lichtblau appeared in the New York Times (http://tinyurl.com/zj7onss) talking about uncountable incidents where „Terror attacks“ were staged to be just prevented in time, numbering such activities as two thirds of all such incidents:

„In recent investigations from Florida to California, agents have helped people suspected of being extremists acquire weapons, scope out bombing targets and find the best routes to Syria to join the Islamic State, records show.“

They go even as far as to implicate mentally ill people (which one should bear in mind):

„In Rochester, a paid informant went undercover and drove a man suspected of being an Islamic extremist, Emanuel Lutchman, to a Wal-Mart in December to buy a machete, ski masks, zip ties and other supplies for a would-be terrorist attack on New Year’s Eve. Because Mr. Lutchman, a mentally ill panhandler, had no money, the informant covered the $40 cost.“

Well, I´m not astonished about the facts as such but about the openness of the NYT! And the fact that it comes from NYT makes me believe that the percentage might even be much higher! 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 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

A Summer of Terror in France and Germany!

On the 14^th of July this year the Nice attack took place, leaving 84 dead, 303 injured. The supposed perpetrator seems to be quite a very dubious „strange case“ (http://tinyurl.com/jqw6vlc). More so is the treatment of the evidence on this case, as Paul Craig Roberts states (http://tinyurl.com/hgcq237).

And then terror turned on Germany: on 18^th of July the Wurzburg train attack took place. Inside a regional train a 17 year old Afghan unaccompanied child refugee attacked a family of four people from Hong Kong with a knife and a hatchet and injured them seriously. He jumped from the stopped train and injured another woman. When he tried to flee he was shot dead by Special Deployment Commandos mysteriously being nearby. One has to keep in mind that those forces are trained to stop people by shots without killing them.

Strange enough, witnesses describe the young man as friendly and relaxed (http://tinyurl.com/zhd46ts). Since a while he was living with a foster family. But it is said, an ISIS flag was “found” in his room, he should have “radicalized” himself unobserved within a short time. All very strange (http://tinyurl.com/j4mc7mt)!

Munich Attack

On Friday 22^th of July the Munich shooting took place. The 18 years old Iranian-German with dual nationality Ali David Sonboli is said to have killed nine people (all not Germans by origin) and injured 35 people. He was living with his family, had serious psychic problems and is said to have been obsessed with Shooter games and Amok stories (like Breivik´s).

Strange enough it was first said that three shooters with long guns were on their way (afterwards it was reported that police in civil clothes with arms led to that observation). Another strange aspect is that first reports said, he was found dead, later on it was reported that he shot himself in front of police.

Reutlingen

Two days later, on Sunday, the 24^th of July, the Reutlingen machete attack took place. A 21 years old Syrian Asylum seeker, known as violent and alcoholic, killed a pregnant woman with whom he had a relationship and wounded two other people. He was purposely knocked down by a car to stop him (which might have saved him whom being shot dead by police) and later on arrested by the police (http://tinyurl.com/jhpaw93, http://tinyurl.com/gt59zeo). Strange enough, on photos of the machete there´s no blood to be seen, as also Paul Craig Roberts states (http://tinyurl.com/hjpnntb).

Ansbach

The very same day in the evening the suicidal Ansbach bombing happened. In this case an ISIS connection seems apparent, according to released information, as much trustworthy as the information might be:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/25/germany-bomb-blast-what-we-know-so-far-ansbach-attack

It is released that he was in communication with an unknown person even short time before the bomb exploded.

Back to France: Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray church attack

Terror came back to France on the 26^th July by the attack on a church in the Normandy during a mass. A priest and four hostages were taken, two of them nuns. The priest was killed, three hostages unharmed, one in a critical condition. The attackers were killed by police when leaving the church. Strange enough, one of the attackers was under police supervision (http://tinyurl.com/hxu3x4t), even wearing a supervision bracelet.

After all most of the perpetrators of all these attacks were very untypical as supposed Islamic extremists, most of them rather being either small gangsters or mentally disturbed or both. But on that later on.

I´d made a sad Prediction

I had to think again of a prediction I made after the efforts of France and Germany to join with Russia in the efforts to calm down the Ukraine conflict, resulting in the Minsk II agreement. The leaders of Belarus, Russia, Germany, France, and Ukraine had met from 11^th to 12^th February 2015 – without the US being invited! After that was finalized the British Prime Minister Cameron was to be seen in front of a camera almost foaming from anger and indicating the Anglo-American fury about those efforts. In deed France and Germany had come to the conclusion that the Ukraine conflict wasn´t in Europe´s best interest (after having helped the US to start the mess). How important the Ukraine „game“ is, see the Neocon Think Tank man George Friedman on the Ukraine:

Don´t mind the German subtitles!

So seeing this I made the prediction: „nasty things will come to France and Germany!“

A Strong Punishment or Just Accidents, Terror and Scandals?!

Already during the prelude of that agreement (which surely had started being negotiated quite some time before) Charlie Hebdo massacre happened on 7^th January 2015, leaving 11 dead, 11 wounded.

On the 14^th of February 2015 the French Ambassador in Denmark foolishly took part in a controversial event with the author of the Mohammed cartoons in Copenhagen and almost got into the line of the shooting that killed one person (http://tinyurl.com/ko37ny8).

On the 9^th of March that year two helicopters crashed in Argentina leaving eight French nationals – among three Sport Stars – and the two Argentinean pilots dead (http://tinyurl.com/za76qqm). Officially the incident is blamed on a „pilot error“ (http://tinyurl.com/zzh7a85), but watching the video one can hardly imagine a pilot to be that stupid, a remote control intervention appears to me not absurd.

On the 24^th March of 2015 another plane crash shocked Europe. Germanwings Flight 9525 crashed in the French Alps (http://tinyurl.com/mxyrs9v). The Co-Pilot was blamed for deliberately downing the plane in suicidal intent. One could have believed that if not very strange details would have been presented:

“Criminal investigators said Lubitz’s web searches on his tablet computer in the days leading up to the crash included „ways to commit suicide“ and „cockpit doors and their security provisions“.

It might already appear strange that an averagely intelligent person would search on the Internet for methods of suicide, the more since he was said to have chosen the way which was before him almost every day. But ok, let´s accept that. Totally unbelievable is that he would have informed himself in the internet about cockpit doors and their security provisions since he´d find twenty times more on that in his handbooks! One must also know that in the US experiments on remote control takeover of passenger planes are going on since the sixties (http://tinyurl.com/ljb9vs5).

On 9^th May 2015, an Airbus A400M Atlas cargo plane (http://tinyurl.com/jcgyw9q) crashed in Spain, leaving four crew members dead and two seriously wounded. After „technical problems“ with the black boxes the incident was blamed on software mistakes. One should bear in mind that Airbus is extremely loved by the US and Boeing!

On 21^st of August an attack took place on a French high speed Thalys train (http://tinyurl.com/hxgoao8). Mysteriously three US soldiers were present to stop the Moroccan perpetrator: you see, only „Big Brother“ can help?!

On the 18^th of September the Volkswagen Emission Scandal propped up (http://tinyurl.com/p65oxrz). All those car manufacturers might be rascals neglecting ecologic demands and cheating, but VW is a state owned German producer, a very painful affair (which I don´t want to defend at all).

On the 16^th of October the rumors about the „bought“ World Championship in Germany came up (http://tinyurl.com/z27s93g). No doubt, Soccer has become a very dirty business and I have no intention to defend the „honorable“ organizers, but mind the time line!

The 13^th of November 2015 saw the terrible Paris attacks (http://tinyurl.com/pb2bohv), in which 130 people died and 368 were injured, near to hundred seriously. All perpetrators who could clearly be identified were EU citizens. The attack was extremely professional and organized.

The year 2015 ended with the Cologne gang assault on women (http://tinyurl.com/golq9do), which in deed left many questions open, but created a lot of problems for the German government and it´s „Refugee Welcome“ policy.

But the New Year 2016 also saw grave events early: on the 7^th of January there was a strange attack on a Paris police station (http://tinyurl.com/ztm8gkz). The perpetrator wore a fake explosive vest and didn´t stop when so told. A very strange way to „commit suicide“!

And not to forget, before the July events this year in June (http://tinyurl.com/gnmyz8b) there was the stabbing attack on a Paris police officer in front of his house and the murder of his wife.

Well, one could say, as much as the West, especially France, helping the US with Colonial wars (as by the way the British do without having a comparable number of attacks) the occurrence of such attacks are not miraculous. But most of the perpetrators – leaving alone the incidents not being associated with „Terror“ – do not fit into the picture of committed followers of Islam, rather, as already stated, mentally instable or small criminals or both.

But we shouldn´t forget the New York Times Article, and more important, there was (most probably better: is) not only Operation Gladio but also the notorious MKULTRA! And by the way, nobody is talking at present about the war danger by NATO expansionism, nobody is talking about TTIP and CETA either!

All this said respectively written, it should be natural to contemplate into ALL directions trying to analyze the terrible events!
