According to The Unz Review, the US political establishment have left Russia’s choice, assigning it an enemy of America.
The national Convention of the Democratic party in 2016 reminded me of the famous Leni Riefenstahl film”triumph of the will” fire it “four-star General marine corps (retired) Allen, ready to kick ass Russian, waving the flags rhythmically repeated hysterical cries of “Yu-es-Hey!” unbridled aggression, militaristic pomp and outshining all around posture of exceptionalism – “America is great because America is good”, and the US is indispensable for world power – a deadly mixture”, uberalles” and “manifest destiny” [a popular expression used to justify American expansionism], which reminded him about the meeting of partinello in the German Nuremberg in 1934
But the similarity ends: the version of the democratic party as a whole serves the bankers and opposes the workers, while the Nazis called themselves the “party workers” and denounced financial capital. The Nazis claimed that they represent the interests of the family and most of the people, while the Democrats say they do not need the votes of workers, as have a sufficient number of votes of feminists of gomoseksualistov.
The presidential candidates decided on their opponents.Carl Schmitt, the great political philosopher of the last century, said that the choice of enemy is the most important political choice to be more important than the choice of a friend. And the Congress party, the Democrats have made their choice. While for Trampararam are unemployment, outsourcing, immigration, foreign wars, the neocons and unthinking allies, Clintonite chose, or rather confirmed that their enemies are Russian.
According to Jeffrey Sachs, “Hillary is the candidate of wall street. But even more dangerous is that she is the candidate of the military-industrial complex that supports all the wars that led the United States in the interests of the military and the CIA.” Today, she and her party is targeting Russia.
The Russian had no choice: their officially appointed to the high office of the chief enemies of the Empire, and the appointment requires the consent of the victim.
Why did you choose Russian? And who still meet the necessary requirements? Military machine the US needs an enemy, and the world is not so great. Europe is conquered and occupied, China is too big, India is too soft, the Arabs are too weak. Japan was good in the role of the enemy in the early 1990s, but quickly gave up. Putin knew that the US military machine is busy looking for the enemy when offered to Americans in Consumersto with Russia to fight Islamic state (organization banned in Russia). Of course, sooner or later these vile ISIS will do, but the role is more serious opponent, able to justify the huge military expenditure, best suited Russia.
Russia has an additional advantage: it is the successor to the USSR, which for a long time was the designated enemy of the West. Thus, Russia’s traditional enemy. At the time Hillary was a member of komanduri Goldwater, one of the most hate Russia candidates in us presidents. Apparently, she still remembers the thrill. The status of enemy of Russia was justified by the satanic nature of atheistic communism, but this explanation is long covered with darkness of oblivion and is a rhetorical technique. The real reason for the need of having the enemy appear to be a need to increase the military budget and to maintain the usual lifestyle to the generals and weapons manufacturers.
The liberal interventionists are surprisingly well able to explain why mankind must fight the enemy, those chosen military machine. They are so successful in demonizing the enemy, save the world seems truly impossible. For them, every adversary who does not fall in front of them down fast enough is the new Hitler. Today in his role Russia and Putin.
Russians often wonder what can be done to avoid American anger. The answer is: nothing. And this is not the Crimea, given that before him there were other reasons: lack of subservience to the gays, a ban on the export of Russian children abroad, same-sex “families”. Before called is the reason that Putin is a dictator. Before him was corruption, the Russian mafia, and unjust possession of the rich resources that should belong to humanity (us corporations), as claimed Madeleine Albright. There is no point in trying to explain what is happening, because Russian does not affect the cause: the needs of the military machine of the United States in the enemy.
Americans must decide whether they want to continue the fight against the new Hitlers, enriching the generals, bankers and vladislavci. If they want to do, Clinton will be all right. When you start listening to people like her, America on a regular basis is embroiled in a war. But there is still another choice.
Donald trump – “no lesser evil”, he is a fearless man who intends to change the paradigm of the US addiction to war, to the peaceful cultivation of their own garden. I’m amazed at the power of the spirit trump the story of a dead officer-a Muslim man and his family. The story is simple: this man died for the interests of the military machine of the United States in the war of aggression that killed and continues to kill millions of Muslims and Christians in the middle East. His father gross took advantage of his death to support her son’s killer. Trump pretty soft spoken on this occasion, that he immediately came under attack by his enemies within the GOP and beyond.
It is noteworthy that the most militant Senator-respublikamizda McCain condemned trump for speaking out against the fallen soldier and his family. This is the same McCain who betrayed his colleagues in a Vietnamese prisoner. Ron Oz convincingly, McCain gave false testimony against prisoners of war American soldiers, condemning them to death in a foreign land. Despite this horrible crime, he became a Senator and a representative of the military machine. McCain blessed the “Islamic state”, taking photos with monsters busy cutting off heads in Iraq and Syria. He called for supplying weapons to Ukraine. One of the first course of positive actions trump was his refusal this month to support the re-election of this old criminal. I hope the good people of Arizona send McCain back to hell where he belongs.
The enemy can be used in different ways. When Wikileaksопубликовало the hacked correspondence of the National Committee of the Democratic party, demonstrating that staranimolinar committed massive fraud with millions of votes cast for Sanders, Hillary’s position has been shaken, so she accused Russian hacker attack, Wikileaks was called a tool of Russia, and trump Putin’s puppet.
Amazed cries of indignation about the Russian cyber espionage for U.S. citizens. Do the debunkers have not figured out that Anbody tracking of phone calls and Internet activity of virtually everyone, everywhere? American intelligence agencies are regularly in the most shameless way controlled communications of Angela Merkel, the Pope, the UN Secretary-General. From the documents provided by Snowden, we know that the U.S. follow the Russian lines almost on a regular basis. The state Department is proud of its intervention in the elections in other countries, including in Russia.
So, even if this is true, and that hacking had indeed taken place, it is not something out of the ordinary in terms of modern realities. In this case, I would like to thank the Kremlin for help to those forces in the USA who advocate peace with Russia and democracy in America.
Russian do not wish to be enemies, they prefer to be friends or at least partners with the United States and European countries. They do not want soritsya, not to mention the fact to start a war. Today they are busy with their own problems: the reconstruction of Moscow, turns into a shining European metropolis, and the broader fight against corruption. Putin is making the fifth Hercules, clearing the “Augean stables” he has left since presidentschallenge.
For this reason, I believe that Donald trump has a chance to change the future of the world. He can stop the war machine, to return the money and make them work for the benefit of ordinary Americans. Instead of spending trillions of dollars on new nuclear weapons, the trump will restore the country’s infrastructure, bring jobs home and improve America. He is able to achieve this, because man in which Hillary Clinton sees the enemy – Vladimir Putin prefers friendship and partnership.
QUOTES:
The 2016 DNC reminded me The Triumph of the Will, the paradigmatic film of Leni Riefenstahl. The fiery oration of “four-star general of the Marine Corps General (retired) Allen, ready to kick ass of the Russkies, flag-waving, hysterical rhythmical shouts Uoo-eS-Ay, runaway aggressiveness, military pomp and above all of exceptionalism “America is great because America is good”; the United States as an “indispensable, transformational power in the world,” the poisonous mix of Uber Alles and Manifest Destiny fits like a glove to the matrix established at the 1934 Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, Germany.
There similarity ends: the Demo version is all for the bankers and against the workers, while the Nazis called themselves “the workers party” and spoke against financial capital. The Nazis said they were for the family and the majority, the Dems say they do not care for workers’ votes, as they have enough votes from feminists and queers.
The presidential candidates announced their choice of the enemy. Carl Schmitt, a great political philosopher of the last century, said the choice of an enemy is the most important political choice, more important than the choice of a friend: this choice was sealed at the DNC. While the Enemy according to Trump is unemployment, outsourcing, immigration, wars abroad, neocons and free-wheeling allies, the Clintonites chose, or rather confirmed, the Russians as the Enemy.
In the words of Jeffrey Sachs, “Hillary is the candidate of Wall Street. Even more dangerous, though, is that she is the candidate of the military-industrial complex supporting every war demanded by the US deep security state run by the military and the CIA.” And now she and her party set their sights on Russia.
The Russians have no say in this decision: they were formally appointed to the high post of The Enemy of the Empire, and this appointment requires no agreement of the victim.
Why were the Russians chosen? Who else fits the bill? The US war machine needs an enemy, and the world is not that large. Europe is subdued and occupied. China is too big, India is too soft, the Arabs are too small. Japan was fitted for an enemy in the early Nineties, but surrendered. Putin perfectly understood the US war machine’s search for an enemy when he proposed to Americans at the UN they fight the Islamic State together with Russia. This nefarious Islamic State remains a possibility that will have to do meanwhile, but for a greater and more serious enemy, able to attract nice budgets, suits Russia best.
Russia has an additional charm: it is a successor state to the USSR, that was the designated enemy for the West for a long time, until 1991. Thus it is a traditional enemy. Hillary as a Goldwater Girl supported the most warlike Russia-hating candidate, and apparently she still remembers the thrill. It is true that Russia’s enemy status had been explained by the satanic nature of godless communism, and this explanation is as dead as a dodo, but explanations are not reasons, they are secondary rhetorical devices. The reason is the need for an enemy so the war budget will grow nicely and keep generals and weapon manufacturers in the lifestyle they are accustomed to.
Liberal-interventionists are wonderfully good at explaining away why fighting an enemy chosen by the war machine is necessary and good for mankind. They are too good at it: they succeed in demonizing the enemy to such an extent that peace become impossible. For them, every adversary who did not duck fast enough is a new Hitler. Now it is Russia and Putin.
Russians often wonder what can be done to avoid American wrath. The answer is nothing. This is not Crimea, as Crimea before there were other explanations, notably the lack of gay adoration, a refusal to let Russian children be exported abroad for same sex “families”. Before that, there was Putin the dictator. Even earlier, there was corruption, Russian mafia and unfair ownership of abundant resources that should belong to mankind meaning to the US corporations, as per Madeleine Albright. It makes no sense to fight explanations, for the Russians can’t change the reason: the real need of the US war machine is to have an enemy.
Americans should decide whether they want to keep fighting new Hitlers and enrich the generals, bankers and mass media owners. If they want this, Clinton will do nicely. Listening to these guys brings America to war with fearsome regularity. But if they do not, they have a choice.
Donald Trump is not a “lesser evil” – he is a fearless man who intends to change the US paradigm from war to peaceful tending of its own garden. I am amazed by Trump’s fortitude in the affair of the dead Muslim officer and his family. The story is clear: this man died for the US war machine in a war of aggression that killed (and continues to kill) millions of Muslims and Christians in the Middle East. He died, in effect if not in intention, to bring the Islamic State to power. His father disgustingly used his son’s death to promote his son’s ultimate killer. Trump said something quite soft along these lines, and he was assaulted by his enemies in the Party and outside. I would cringe and collapse in face of such attack, but Trump did not give in an inch.
Notably, the most warlike Republican Senator John McCain condemned Trump for speaking against the fallen soldier and his family. This is the same McCain who betrayed his fellow soldiers in the captivity of Vietnam. Ron Unz convincingly proved that McCain was the man whose mendacious testimony doomed the POW and MIA American soldiers to remain forever and die in the foreign land. This horrible crime notwithstanding, he became a Senator and a spokesman for the war machine. He blessed the Islamic State, he arranged a photo-op with the head-chopping monsters in Syria and Iraq, he called for delivery of weapons to the Ukraine. One of the first deeply satisfying acts by Donald Trump was his refusal to the old criminal endorsements for re-election due this month. Hopefully the good people of Arizona will send him to hell where he belongs.
An enemy can be used in many ways. Clinton used Russia as a means of changing the subject. While Wikileaks published the hacked DNC correspondence showing that followers of Clinton committed massive fraud by discounting millions of votes for Sanders, and her position trembled, they accused the Russians of the hack, Wikileaks of being the Russian tool and Trump of being Putin’s stooge.
Our colleague in Counterpunch was astonished by “the howls of indignation at Russian hacking of U.S. citizens’ communications. Have whistle-blowers not made it known to us that the NSA maintains records on the phone calls and internet activity of virtually everybody, everywhere? That they routinely monitor the communications of Angela Merkel, the pope, the UN Secretary General etc. without any sense of shame?” We know from the Snowden files that the US surveillance of Russian communications is near total. The State Department is proud of its interfering in elections in other states, including Russia.
So even if true, such a hack would be a case of what goes around comes around. I would welcome the Kremlin helping those forces in the United States that stand for peace with Russia and for democracy in America. But it is not the case. The Russians aren’t involved in the DNC hack. The Intercept said that the NSA would know that, and the NSA did not confirm the hack.
In short, Russians were and are unwilling enemies. They prefer to be friends or at least partners with the US and European states. They do not want to quarrel, let alone fight a war. Now they are busy organising their life. They had spent a fortune doing a complete facelift of Moscow, turning this rather grim and rundown city into shining and comfortable European metropolis. They seriously fight corruption: It appears that Putin decided to undertake the fifth labour of Hercules: he is cleaning the Augean stables of Russia, undoing the criminal webs formed in the days of President Yeltsin.
For this reason I believe that Donald Trump has a chance to change the ways of the world. He can stop the war machine, and put the money to work for the benefit of the ordinary Americans. Instead of spending a cool trillion on new nuclear weapons he can repair the infrastructure, to bring industries back home and make the US great again. He will be able to do it because the person wants to have Clinton as the enemy, namely Vladimir Putin prefers friendship and partnership.
