Failed Strategies

The US is the only nation that has deployed nuclear weapons against civilian targets (WWII). Should anyone be surprised that a nation that has lost its ability to compete in today’s world would resort to the one last area in which it perceives itself to have an advantage? Military technology incorporating nuclear options is the last trump card of a failing nation; there is no doubt regarding future utilisation of nuclear weapons by the US, that intention should now be clear to all.
A nation that has lost, squandered or otherwise been out-competed has forfeited most of its options. As a consequence of limited available options, it clings to the mistaken belief its final option (military power) is able to guarantee its future as a leading superpower; however, the strategy/plan upon which that dream (PNAC) is based is flawed and has been from the start. The nation is being led to ruination and possibly total destruction by the insane adherence to a flawed plan that finds its roots in the ultra-right ideology of Leo Strauss and his two most influential pupils, Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle. [Allowing the present US administration to pursue its insane plan would possibly be the most regrettable inaction of modern history.]
The New World will not be dominated by military might or economic strength, it will be dominated by the will of the people – all people everywhere acting in the interests of each other and the planet that sustains them. Analysts are highly paid to determine future directions; recent social history has laid bare the most likely outcome. The recent capitulation of the government to the will of the people in France; the demonstration of six hundred thousand Hispanics in LA, the success of the people against their corrupt leader in Thailand. All these events in very close succession signal with clarity the world ‘government’ of tomorrow.
Israel, America’s most staunch ally (in violence) has been cultivating relations with China for some time and has recently supplied sensitive US military technology to China. Is this a symptom of the madness of ‘King David’, or the result of a failed strategy (by US Zionists) to make America the dominant world power? Are the machinations of Israel an expression of a duplicitous and self-serving nation seeking an insurance policy or could they simply be pragmatic manoeuvres in the hard world of today’s international politics? Whatever theory is offered for the ‘friends’ of America abandoning the nation in times of need, one thing is undeniable, the negative impact American Capitalism has had on the nation and its people. The weakening of the national and social character spells final defeat for the USA regardless of the particular circumstances involved in that demise.
[The ‘smart money’ is moving offshore as fast as the wire will carry it!]
The neo-con leadership of the US is oblivious to the reality that surrounds them; they clutch at their delusions with religious fervour and proceed on the road to destruction with vigour! There is absolutely nothing other than the removal of Bush and the neo-cons (by the people) that would prevent the leadership pursuing its course to ruination. The lunatics that advise the clown are actually convinced that a display of nuclear weaponry in Iran will once again earn them the respect of nations – nothing could be further from the truth. Any nation that deploys nuclear weapons today will earn the condemnation of all people everywhere; furthermore, such an insane act may possibly provoke a (similar) retaliatory response. [Relish the thought, say the neo-cons, it would give them license and reason to continue on their pathological path. They may even orchestrate the counter attack themselves; remember the cry of the alliance, “desperate times require desperate measures.” The conservatives have never been more desperate than at present.]
The tenability of life on earth depends on decisive immediate action; it would be advisable to act sooner rather than later.
Never forget there is nothing that could prevent the people restoring sanity to the world.
Your life your planet and your future.
Peace.
