Global War

 

"If we just let our vision of the world go forth, and we embrace it entirely, and don't try to piece together clever diplomacy but just wage a total war, out children will sing great songs about us years from now." (Richard Perle, influential neocon)


We have entered the third phase of World War III. The first phase was President Clinton's use of NATO as an out of area strike force to attack and dismember Yugoslavia. Up until that point NATO was ostensibly a defensive alliance of Western European nations plus the US. As such, with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact, NATO lost it justification and should have been dissolved. The reality, however, was that NATO was the organizational means by which the US controlled the Western European militaries and influenced their political economies to comport with imperial objectives. Clinton effectively redefined NATO's mission from a supposed defensive alliance to that of a US led imperial strike force. This was followed by a series of US fomented "color revolutions" in former Warsaw Block countries followed by NATO expansion eastward in violation of promises made to the USSR/Russia not to expand NATO eastward. Subsequently, the US used NATO to attack Libya and Syria. 


Phase two was the 2014 coup in the Ukraine turning the Ukraine into a neo-Nazi infested US/NATO vassal state, it's armed forces are armed and trained by US/NATO and culminating with the unrelenting military attack on the Russian speaking people in the Donbass region of Ukraine. Phase three is the Russia invasion of Ukraine to demilitarize and denazify this US/NATO vassal state, eliminating this existential threat to Russian security. Make no mistake, the current fighting represents an intensification of the empire's efforts to eliminate potential "threats" to imperial hegemony during the transition to a restructured global financial and production system (The Great Reset). The philosophy behind this increased imperial aggressiveness seems best articulated by those known as neocons. These are highly placed and influential militarists (Victoria Nuland, for example) who espouse ongoing warfare as necessary for US global hegemony in the 21st century. The dismemberment of Russia remains one of their goals. 


The notion that the American led empire seeks peace and justice anywhere is ludicrous. Imperialism is a vicious and brutal business usually characterized by ruthlessness and vindictiveness, the current empire no exception. Propagandistic appeals to international law, humanitarian intervention or the responsibility to protect in  order to camouflage naked aggression appeal only to those who wish to close their eyes to the ugly reality. The empire tramples on international law on a daily basis and has a long history of serial mass murder, hence, is in no position to posture as a champion of morality. The current Ukrainian conflict provoked by US/NATO utilizing Ukrainian proxy forces has already achieved significant imperial objectives. The Nordstream 2 gas pipeline which the empire adamantly opposed is now a dead issue along with the increased Russian/European cooperation and trade which would have logically followed. Instead, we have European vassal states subservient to US/NATO foreign policy diktats aligned against Russia in a form of hybrid war, a neocon's dream come true. Perhaps more significant are the draconian sanctions which will devastate Europe economically while contributing to the controlled demolition of the global economy as part of the global restructuring culminating in totalitarian neofeudalism. The plan is for the American led global empire to be the uncontested global hegemon. We are basically seeing the attempt to implement the neocon Project for a New American Century.


There will be no peace in the Ukraine, the Empire won't allow it. While the tank and artillery battles will come to an end, a US/NATO supported and directed "insurgency" will begin. Much like the US/NATO/Israel supported al Qaida offshoots committing destabilizing terror in the Middle East; Ukrainian, Polish and other neo-Nazis will engage in low level terror and destabilizng campaigns. This may lead to a full blown European war between US/NATO and Russia. As long as it can be contained and primarily involve Europe, it would be consistent with the neocon game plan. They are consummate warmongers. And this will be a global war including China. In my opinion, the export economy of China is more fragile than most realize and will be subject to attack. Sanctions will be used to restrict as much as possible those who align themselves with Russia. China's overseas investments, particularly in Africa, will be subject to seizure. Neither Russia nor China has significant long range force projection. Both are powerful regionally, however, neither can compete with the empire militarily on a global basis without resorting to nuclear weapons. Both know this. While China may appear to be an economic powerhouse, their economic might exists within the Western designed, maintained, administered and controlled global economic framework. Foreign investments can be frozen or seized and financial reserves made to dissappear. Russian and Chinese efforts to create an alternate to the imperial system are too little, too late. 


And then there are the biolabs in the Ukraine and around the globe encircling Russia and China and everyone else. Shortly after then 911 terror attacks, there were supposed terrorist originated biological attacks involving anthrax. Later it turned out that the anthrax had originated in a US biolab, however, at the time this provided the justification for a proliferation of US controlled biolabs globally, supposedly for defensive purposes. To preserve the illusion of peaceful intent, control was passed from the Pentagon to the NIH with Dr. Anthony Fauci in control of these "gain of function" projects. When a temporary halt to "gain of function" research was called in 2014, Dr. Fauci transferred this research to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the probable source of the COVID-19 outbreak. An associate of Dr. Fauci is Dr. Robert Kadlec, a bioweapons expert who believes that "Biological warfare's potential to create significant economic losses and consequent political instability, coupled with plausible deniability, exceeds the possibilities of any other human weapon." ("The Real Anthony Fauci," p381). The notion that the empire needs hundreds of biolabs worldwide to conduct what must be redundant research seems far fetched. More likely is that the global war we are now in will probably entail the use of highly infectious but only moderately lethal biological agents. Weapons of mass economic disruption. Russia and China are vulnerable to such an attack, the US is not. An attack which would be extremely difficult to prove conclusively, hence, deniable. Even to the extent of a lab origin versus zoonotic transfer.


The empire has instigated a global war in eastern Europe which will be extended to the entire planet. The sanctions already imposed will impact the entire global economy. Additionally, proxy forces will be employed to disrupt Chinese economic power so dependent upon trade and investment. Africa, South America, Asia, etc., will be subjected to anti-Chinese hybrid warfare. Syria will likely come under increased attack as a Russian ally. Israel may engage Iran in hybrid warfare. Cyber attacks may also proliferate. Biologic weaponry may also be used. Propaganda and domestic population control will be ubiquitous as global conditions deteriorate resulting in mass starvation and disease. We will likely enter a full scale global war for global hegemony stopping just short of nuclear war, if possible. The situation is dire, human survival uncertain. 


Apparently, the neocon game plan is to duplicate, to an extent, the outcome of World War II where the US emerged as the dominant great power after foes were destroyed and rivals weakened. There is a certain perverse logic to this as we are at the end of the hydrocarbon era and require global restructuring of the financial system and other aspects of the global political economy. The choice for the empire was to either maintain business as usual until the current global system collapsed into chaos in the near future (5 yr?, 10 yr?, 20 yr?) or to initiate a controlled demolition in order to maintain control and strongly influence the outcome in order to perpetuate Western elite rule, albeit under significantly changed circumstances.  One reason for the recent Western offshoring of manufacturing operations was/is to eliminate Western old style manufacturing operations to avoid the disruption when energy constraints make old style manufacturing societies obsolete. There is a method to what the uninformed view as madness. The current Ukraine conflict is but one phase of an elite initiated global war which is likely going to intensify and spread globally with the empire risking nuclear war and employing full spectrum dominance to smash any and all perceived threats to imperial elite plans for a new world order with them in charge. The seriousness of all of this is evident in the elite propaganda which is over the top war propaganda with a single purpose and where dissent equals treason. None of what I have written is even conceivable to those who go along to get along and whose world view is informed by the official narrative.
