From commenters at MoonOfAlabama on June 7. As quoted by Karl Sanchez at his blog, bevin says things I've been saying a bit more forcefully and (hopefully) hopefully, replying to a previous comment by too scents@82:
"...The underlying cause of the Ukrainian conflict has not yet been identified, yet alone addressed..." too scents@82
The underlying cause of this-and every other conflict of the kind- is the US government's commitment to Full Spectrum Dominance.
It really is as simple as that- the US government is the global equivalent of Organised Crime. And everywhere that it goes, from south east Asia to Europe, to Africa and Latin America, it recruits and trains the criminally inclined to work with it and for its objective which is to produce a Hell on Earth, in which a small class of exploiters devour the substance which humanity, in harmony with nature, produces.
The war in Ukraine, where victory is critical to humanity's future, is nevertheless little more than a sideshow in world wide struggle between imperialism, no longer masked as anything more than a criminal project, and life. Life demands balance, justice and love and abhors cannibalism which is the very essence of the criminality of Empire- a greedy minority surrounded by the bones and the shortened, blighted lives of those whom they have devoured.
What Biden is telling us, and those like him have been telling us with increasing confidence for eighty years, is that obvious breaches of law and morality no longer matter because the domination that the ruling class has over the world includes control of information and opinion, which means that the criminals have the ability to re-write the law to ensure that they cannot be identified as breaking it.
The US government has been breaking every rule in the book, reneging on every agreement it ever made and betraying both the letter and spirit of every law it runs into-domestically and internationally- since people started paying attention to its actions. And long before it sealed its independence in the C18th. It has always been a criminal conspiracy. But since 1945 it has ceased to pretend otherwise. And it's government has been taken over by the CIA, an institution which is not only out of but beyond control- it runs all three branches of government, the entire law enforcement system, the media, the internet, all means of communication and education. And is rapidly taking over every other government- it owns the UN for example. Its agents fill the legislatures across Europe- they command the armed forces of most of the world's military, and they are constantly beavering away, gnawing at the roots of the few power centres that it does not already control.
But there is hope, yet, in those countries which have hasd, over the centuries enough of imperialism-as its colonised objects- to teach them that there is one imperative in politics today, one precondition to the solution of mankind's many problems, and that is the defeat of the Empire and the re-education of the millions that it has corrupted.
This last will not be hard- the basis of imperialism is the belief that it is the winning side, once that is dealt with in the form of a comprehensive defeat, the Empire will expire with the whimpering of bullies and time servers learning that might is not right and that justice, the foundation of all physics and philosophy, will triumph or life will end.
Sanchez reports on the teleconference between Putin and the Security Council.
And then he links to an editorial at Strategic Culture which reinforces what Bevin said.
