\"\"Right now, most Governments do things that are commonly said to be evil when perpetrated by an \u2018enemy\u2019 country but which are simultaneously considered to be okay when one\u2019s own Government does it. For example, the U.S. Government invaded Iraq in 2003 on the basis of\u00a0purely lies (for which no one was held to account, and which lies were themselves subsequently lied-about by saying they had been only \u2018intelligence failures\u2019 though they weren\u2019t at all that)<\/span><\/a>, but this same U.S. Government is now pouring the most vicious terms of condemnation upon today\u2019s Russian Government for invading Ukraine after the U.S. anti-Russian military alliance NATO had announced unanimously on January 7th that Ukraine\u2019s application to join that anti-Russian military alliance on Russia\u2019s very border and thus to allow the U.S. Government to position its nuclear missiles in Ukraine within only a five-minute striking-distance from Russia\u2019s central command in Moscow, was going to be accepted.<\/p>\n

If Russia fails to win control over enough of Ukraine so as to block that from ever happening, then the very real prospect will exist that the time-window for a U.S. blitz nuclear annihilation of Russia\u2019s central command in Moscow will become far shorter than the half-hour time-frame for the Soviet Union to annihilate America\u2019s central command in Washington DC was when JFK threatened Khrushchev with World War III if the Soviet Government were to place its missiles in Cuba. Obviously, that\u2019s unacceptable for\u00a0any<\/i>\u00a0country; it was unacceptable for Americans during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, and it would be even more unacceptable for Russians today, because, whereas Cuba is\u00a01,131 miles<\/span><\/a>\u00a0from DC, Ukraine is (at its nearest point to Moscow) only\u00a0353 miles<\/span><\/a>\u00a0from The Kremlin \u2014 and missiles today are far faster than they were in 1962.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

America\u2019s voters don\u2019t want to acknowledge that they were fooled, by lying Presidents and by their stenographic \u2018free press\u2019 transmitting Governmental lies \u2014 they were thus deceived into invading and destroying Iraq in 2003, and Libya in 2011-, and\u00a0Syria in 2011-<\/span><\/a>. U.S. is globally the most frequently mentioned nation as being\u00a0\u201cthe greatest threat to peace in the world today.\u201d<\/span><\/a>\u00a0The biggest threat to peace isn\u2019t Iran, and isn\u2019t Russia, and isn\u2019t China, and isn\u2019t Venezuela, but it is, in fact, their mutually shared and actually aggressive enemy, the United States of America, which wants to dictate to them all \u2014 this imperialistic dictatorship demands to impose its\u00a0\u2018democracy\u2019<\/span><\/a>\u00a0throughout the world, as it has tried to do in hundreds of\u00a0coups<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0invasions<\/span><\/a>. It destroyed Iran\u2019s democracy in 1953. It destroyed Guatemala\u2019s democracy in 1954. It destroyed Chile\u2019s democracy in 1973. And there are many other such instances, less well-known \u2014 including many even after the\u00a0so-called \u2018ideological\u2019<\/span><\/a>\u00a0Cold War ended in 1991. But the American people obviously don\u2019t\u00a0want<\/i>\u00a0to know, and don\u2019t even care, about the ugliness of the Government that they allegedly \u2018elect\u2019 (but\u00a0really do not<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u2014 and they don\u2019t want to know\u00a0that<\/i>, either). Americans aren\u2019t physical slaves, but are\u00a0mental<\/i>\u00a0slaves \u2014 they don\u2019t even\u00a0want<\/i>\u00a0to know the reality, of the regime that rules them.<\/p>\n

As A.B. Abrams\u2019s 2021\u00a0World War in Syria: Global Conflict on Middle Eastern Battlefields<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0stated in its Chapter 1, regarding what was actually an obsession by the U.S. regime to take control over Syria as soon as the French imperial regime lost Syria in the wake of WW II,\u00a0\u201cThe first\u00a0<\/i>[coup in Syria, the CIA\u2019s actually second coup, the one in Thailand in 1948 having been its first-ever<\/i>\u00a0coup]\u00a0was engineered by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) against the government of President Shukri Al Quwatli.11 The\u00a0<\/i>[Al Quwatli]\u00a0administration was targeted primarily due to its lack of enthusiasm for\u00a0<\/i>[actually its opposition to]\u00a0a major American project, the Trans-Arabian Pipeline, which was intended to transport Saudi Arabian oil to Europe through Syrian territory. Quwatli\u2019s replacement, a general with a \u2018strong pro-French orientation\u2019 named Husni Al Zaim, ran what Pentagon cables described as an \u2018army supported dictatorship\u2019 with a \u2019strong anti-Soviet attitude.<\/i>\u201912 His government approved the pipeline in its first week in power, but was overthrown five months later by colonel Sami Al Hinnawi whose short-lived administration was itself toppled by another colonel, Adib Shishakli, in December\u00a0<\/i>[1949]. Shishakli\u2019s pro-Western government lasted four years before a coup deposed it and restored national elections. Al Quwatli was then re-elected in 1955, and his administration distanced itself from the West as a result of the CIA\u2019s involvement in the original March 1949 coup<\/i>.\u201d This bit of history alone is sufficient to show that at the start of the CIA by U.S. President Truman in 1947, Truman\u2019s Government was fixated upon robbing the peoples of other countries \u2014 which Governments it would label as being \u2018communist\u2019 though they were not and were ONLY trying to establish or continue democracy, which the U.S. regime would NOT allow \u2014 in order to enrich America\u2019s own and allied billionaires, such as the Saudi royal family, and, of course, the U.S.-and-European billionaires who would ALSO get a cut into the marketing and distribution of the Saud family\u2019s oil sales. Clearly, therefore, that bit of history constitutes virtually a proof that as soon as FDR died and WW II was over, Truman turned the U.S. Government into the U.S. regime that we know today, a hegemonic imperialistic-capitalist, or fascist, dictatorship by America\u2019s super-rich as now constituting America\u2019s aristocracy controlling the entire then-nascent growing U.S. empire \u2014 grab, grab, grab, all the way. For example: as was documented by the link at the opening here, the U.S. regime\u2019s invasion of Iraq in 2003 was no mere\u00a0fluke<\/i>\u00a0or \u2018intelligence error\u2019 (such as the billionaires\u2019 media portray it) but instead it was just another part of the entire post-FDR U.S. global dictatorship, which constantly lies through its teeth in order to further enrich its insatiably grasping billionaires and their foreign business-partners, all being an international-gangland operation that they have the nerve to call \u2018democracy\u2019 (and, so, to insult that noble term).<\/p>\n

Americans prefer to remain deceived, and to blame-the-victims \u2014 Iran, Russia, China, Syria, Venezuela, etc. \u2014 even as our Government imposes entirely unjustified and unjustifiable strangulating economic blockades (\u201csanctions\u201d) against countries that America\u2019s voracious and vicious megacorporate aristocracy (America\u2019s billionaires) want to control, so as for those lands to become additional parts of the U.S. regime\u2019s global dictatorship, and for those super-rich vampires to suck dry even of their independence.<\/p>\n
