How Biosecurity Is Enabling Digital Neo-Feudalism — Strategic Culture

Italian master thinker Giorgio Agamben has been on the – controversial – forefront examining what new paradigm may be emerging out of our current pandemic distress.

He recently called attention to an extraordinary book published seven years ago that already laid it all out.

In Tempetes Microbiennes, Patrick Zylberman, a professor of History of Health in Paris, detailed the complex process through which health security, so far at the margins of political strategies, was sneaking into center stage in the early 2000s. The WHO had already set the precedent in 2005, warning about “50 million deaths” around the world caused by the incoming swine flu. In the worst-case scenario projected for a pandemic, Zylberman predicted that “sanitary terror” would be used as an instrument of governance.

That worst-case scenario has been revamped as we speak. The notion of a generalized obligatory confinement is not warranted by any medical justification, or leading epidemiological research, when it comes to fighting a pandemic. Still, that was enshrined as the hegemonic policy – with the inevitable corollary of countless masses plunged into unemployment. All that based on failed, delirious mathematical models of the Imperial College kind, imposed by powerful pressure groups ranging from the World Economic Forum (WEF) to the Munich Security Conference.

Enter Dr. Richard Hatchett, a former member of the National Security Council during the first Bush Jr. administration, who was already recommending obligatory confinement of the whole population way back in 2001. Hatchett now directs the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), a very powerful entity coordinating global vaccine investment, and very cozy with Big Pharma. CEPI happens to be a brainchild of the WEF in conjunction with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Crucially, Hatchett regards the fight against Covid-19 as a “war”. The terminology – adopted by everyone from President Trump to President Macron – gives away the game. It harks back to – what else – the global war on terror (GWOT), as solemnly announced in September 2001 by Donald “Known Unknowns” Rumsfeld himself.

Rumsfeld, crucially, had been the chairman of biotech giant Gilead. After 9/11, at the Pentagon, he got busy aiming to blur the distinction between civilians and the military when it came to GWOT. That’s when “generalized obligatory confinement” was conceptualized, with Hatchett among the key players.

As much as this was a militarized Big Pharma spin-off concept, it had nothing to do with public health. What mattered was the militarization of American society to be adopted in response to bioterror – at the time automatically attributed to a squalid, tech-deprived al-Qaeda.

The current version of this project – we are at “war” and every civilian must stay at home – takes the form of what Alexander Dugin has defined as a medical-military dictatorship.

Hatchett is very much part of the group, alongside ubiquitous Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), very close to WHO, WEF and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Robert Redfield, director of the U.S. chapter of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Further applications inbuilt in the project will include all-around digital surveillance, sold as health monitoring. Already implemented in the current narrative is the non-stop demonization of China, “guilty” of all things Covid-19-related. That is inherited from another tried and tested war game – the Red Dawn scheme.

Show me your fragility

Agamben did square the circle: it’s not that citizens across the West have the right to health safety; now they are juridically forced (italics mine) to be healthy. That, in a nutshell, is what biosecurity is all about.

So no wonder biosecurity is an ultra-efficient governance paradigm. Citizens had it administered down their throats with no political debate whatsoever. And the enforcement, writes Agamben, kills “any political activity and any social relation as the maximum example of civic participation.”

What we are already experiencing is social distancing as a political model (italics mine) – with a digital matrix replacing human interaction, which by definition from now on will be regarded as fundamentally suspicious and politically “contagious”.

Agamben has to be appalled by this “concept for the destiny of human society that in many aspects seems to have borrowed from religions in decline the apocalyptic idea of the end of the world”. Economics had already replaced politics – as in everything subjected to the diktats of financial capitalism. Now the economy is being absorbed by “the new biosecurity paradigm to which every other imperative must be sacrificed.”

How to fight against it? Conceptual weaponry is available, such as the courses on biopolitics taught by Michel Foucault at the College de France between 1972 and 1984. They may now be consulted via a decentralized platform set up by a collective which delightfully describes itself as “the crayfish”, who “advance laterally”: a concept that does justice to great rhizomatic master Gilles Deleuze.

Nassim Taleb’s concept of Antifragile is also quite helpful. As he explains, “Antifragile is the antidote to Black Swans.” Well, Covid-19 was a Black Swan of sorts: after all deciding elites knew something like it was inevitably coming – even as lowly Western politicians, especially, were caught totally unprepared.

Antifragile contends that because of fear (very much in evidence now) or a “thirst for order” (natural to any political power) “some human systems, by disrupting the invisible or not so visible logic of things, tend to be exposed to harm from Black Swans and almost never get any benefit. You get pseudo-order when you seek order; you only get a measure of order and control when you embrace randomness.”

The conclusion is that “in the black swan world, optimization isn’t possible. The best you can achieve is a reduction in fragility and greater robustness.”

There’s no evidence, so far, that a “reduction in fragility” in the current world-system will necessarily lead towards “greater robustness.” The system has never proved to be so fragile. What we do have is plenty of indications that the system collapse is being refitted, at breakneck speed, as digital neo-feudalism.

Lost in a biopolitical quarantine

Byung-Chul Han, the South Korean philosopher who teaches in Berlin, has attempted to lay it all out. The problem is he’s too much of a hostage of an idealized vision of Western liberalism.

Byung-Chul Han is correct when he notes that Asia fought Covid-19 with rigor and discipline inconceivable in the West – something that I have followed closely. But then he evokes the Chinese social credit system to mount an attack on China’s society of digital discipline. The system unquestionably allows for biopolitical surveillance. But it’s all about nuance.

The social credit system is like the formula “socialism with Chinese characteristics”; a hybrid that is effective only when responding to China’s complex specificities.

The maze of facial recognition surveillance cameras; the absence of restriction to data exchanged between internet providers and the central power; the QR code that tells whether you’re “red” or “green” in terms of infection; all these instruments were applied – successfully – in China to the benefit of public health.

Byung-Chul Han is forced to admit that does not take place only in China; South Korea – a Western-style democracy – is even considering that people in quarantine should wear a digital bracelet. If we talk about the different Asian models used to fight Covid-19, nuance is the norm.

The Asian-wide collectivist spirit and discipline – especially in Confucianist-influenced societies – works irrespective of the political system. At least Byung-Chul Han admits, “all these Asian particularities are systemic advantages to contain the epidemic.”

The point is not that Asian disciplinary society should be seen as a model for the West. We already live in a digital global Panopticum (where’s Foucault when we need him?) Social network vigilance – and censorship – deployed by the Silicon Valley behemoths has already been internalized. All our data as citizens is trafficked and instantly marketized for private profit. So yes; digital neo-feudalism was already in effect even before Covid-19.

Call it surveillance turbo-neoliberalism. Where there’s no inbuilt “freedom”, and it’s all accomplished by voluntary servitude.

Biopolitical surveillance is just a further layer, the last frontier, because now, as Foucault taught us, this paradigm controls our own bodies. “Liberalism” has been reduced to road kill a long time ago. The point is not that China may be the model for the West. The point is we may have been set up for an endless biopolitical quarantine without even noticing it.

Cults and Bioterrorism: A Toxic Duo — Strategic Culture

Far right-wingers in the United States and other countries are pushing the propaganda line that China was somehow involved in the creation or spread of the Covid-19 virus, formally known as SARS [Severe acute respiratory syndrome]-CoV-2, to the rest of the world either deliberately or from an accidental release from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Although nation-states have, over the decades, conducted research on and produced biological warfare weapons, there is no recent documented proof of a government being engaged in the widespread release of a biological warfare agent to cause maximum deaths. The 1972 Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons and on their Destruction, the short name of which is the Biological Warfare Convention, bans the production or release of bio-weapons as well as mandates the destruction of existing stockpiles.

The People’s Republic of China acceded to the Biological Warfare Convention on November 15, 1984. China has experienced a horrifying history of being victimized by biological warfare. The Imperial Japanese Army’s Unit 731 was responsible for spawning bubonic plague among the Chinese population by spreading plague-infected fleas over Chinese cities from low-flying aircraft. Typhoid and paratyphoid was spread throughout the city of Nanking by Unit 731 by introducing typhus germs into well water and food. A Japanese bio-war attack on Changda infected more than 10,000 people with cholera. Unit 731 also introduced smallpox, botulism, dysentery, and anthrax on to unsuspecting Chinese civilian populations. Those who now accuse the Chinese government of developing Covid-19 as a weapon have neither an appreciation for recent Chinese history nor an understanding of how China was victimized by biological warfare during World War II.

Although there is no recent history of nation-states propagating a biological warfare attack – the allegations by U.S. and British intelligence about Saddam Hussein possessing a bio-warfare capability turned out to be bogus – there is a history of dangerous religious cults being involved in preparing for or carrying out biological warfare attacks.

Since the 1970s, there have been several cases of religious cults either dabbling in biological warfare research or engaged in deploying it. The cults involved include the Japanese Aum Shinrikyo movement, the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh cult, the “People’s Temple” of Reverend Jim Jones, and the one that requires a much closer investigation after the spread of Covid-19, the Chinese Falun Gong.

At the center of the current propaganda war being waged on China is Falun Gong, a shadowy religious cult that has ties to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. The cult’s newspaper, “The Epoch Times,” has been accredited by the Donald Trump White House and its propaganda has been championed by such Trump allies as Republican Senators Tom Cotton of Arkansas and Ted Cruz of Texas, as well as former Trump ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and right-wing radio commentator Rush Limbaugh. Trump’s personal attorney, Rudolph Giuliani, whose main responsibility for Trump appears to be the proffering of far-out and discredited conspiracy theories, has accused China of creating Covid-19 as a “bio-weapon.” “The Epoch Times” has championed many bogus stories being advanced by Giuliani. Being enticed into the world of Falun Gong is not Giuliani’s only entanglement with a cult. His support of the Iranian cult, the Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), has turned the former New York mayor into a favorite for anyone wanting unsubstantiated allegations and propaganda to reach the ears of Donald Trump.

Falun Gong propaganda is also creeping into the pronouncements of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and America’s diplomatic circles. Increasingly, Falun Gong propaganda is creeping into official press releases from the State Department with accusations that Covid-19 development was a project of the “Chinese Communist Party.” Similar propaganda has also found its way into the broadcasts of Radio Free Asia, part of the U.S. government propaganda operation that is under the auspices of the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG). The attempt to revive a Cold War with China has also been emboldened by the Republican Attorneys General of Missouri and Mississippi, who have both filed lawsuits against the government of China for damages from Covid-19.

The State Department and White House war on the World Health Organization (WHO), including the Trump administration’s freeze on funds to the international organization, has relied on Falun Gong propaganda that claim the WHO is a “China-centric” body. The cult, which practices the same sort of character assassination campaigns witnessed by several other right-wing organizations, has targeted the top three officials of WHO — Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesuas, Assistant Director-General Dr. Bruce Aylward, and Executive Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program Dr. Michael Ryan — as “Chinese Communist” agents-of-influence. The rhetoric is torn right out of the Cold War history pages of the 1950s.

Falun Gong’s “spiritual leader,” Li Hongzhi, is a textbook case of a cult leader. The Jilin, China-born Li, who lives in New York City and a permanent resident of the United States, claims that he acquired “supernatural powers” at the age of eight in China. These powers include the ability to walk through walls and levitate. Li claims that extraterrestrials have invaded the minds of humans and it has led to a reliance on computers overseen by massive corruption.

In a couple of recent articles in The Epoch Times, Falun Gong appears to be taking credit for launching Covid-19, which runs counter to the anti-Beijing propaganda emanating from Pompeo, White House trade official Peter Navarro, and leading congressional Republicans. On March 11 and April 26, 2020, The Epoch Times ran two editorials suggesting that Covid-19 was not a virus caused by the Chinese government, but one intended to destroy the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its international supporters. The articles states:

“The spreading of the virus shows a clear pattern, which is, it is selectively targeting the CCP and is aimed at eliminating the CCP and those who are pro-communist or who have close ties with the CCP. All regions that are hard-hit by the virus outside China are those having intimate ties with the CCP, those who have supported the CCP in terms of trade, investment, or helping the CCP improve its international image. Likewise, individuals who have been the CCP’s supporters often find themselves vulnerable to the CCP virus.” The article suggests that New York City became a hot zone for the virus because of its financial links to the Chinese government and the presence of the United Nations and Wall Street, the latter accused of being a “behind the curtains financier helping the Chinese Communist regime prolong its life.”

The Falun Gong articles also contain a stark warning for New York City: “the priority is to start cleansing the CCP infiltration from New York.” Does “cleansing” include carrying out a mass casualty event by a cult that also targeted Wall Street, including three targets — MSCI (Morgan Stanley Capital International), FTSE Russell, Bloomberg Index — and JP Morgan, the United Nations headquarters, and New York City’s “economy, finance, commerce, media, culture, education, [and] Chinese-American community?”

The Epoch Times articles offer a Covid-19 cure: “Staying away from the CCP, condemning the CCP, not supporting the CCP can help any individual, organization, and country alleviate or even avoid the attacks of the CCP virus. They will then embrace a wonderful future.”

Such a manifesto would normally attract the interest of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Department of Homeland Security. However, with both organizations under the thumbs of Trump loyalists, such a direct threat against New York by Falun Gong has gone unnoticed. The Epoch Media Group has become part and parcel of the Trump re-election campaign. The Group’s New Tang Dynasty Television (NTDT) and Sound of Hope Radio Network are virtual propaganda arms of the White House and engage in echoing back and forth the same unfounded claims found in other pro-Trump media operations, including One America News Network (OANN), based in San Diego; and The Washington Times, the publication of yet another Asian-founded religious cult, the Unification Church of the late Korean Reverend Sun Myung Moon.

If Covid-19 has a non-natural origin, such statements place Falun Gong squarely as a major suspect in unleashing and propagating the virus. Cults have a history of committing acts of bio-chemical terrorism, including the Japanese Aum Shinrikyo movement, which launched a sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway system on March 20, 1995, killing 13 people and injuring thousands of others. The Japanese group was also found to be in possession of the Ebola virus that was procured from Zaire in 1992. The mass suicidal People’s Temple of the CIA-linked Reverend Jim Jones was discovered to be dabbling in bio-war research at it Jonestown, Guyana compound. There were links between Jones and the Chemical and Biological Warfare Research at Dugway Proving Grounds, Utah and the CIA-connected research being conducted at the St. George’s University Medical School in Grenada. In 1984, the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh cult, an Indian mystic movement, purposefully contaminated salad bars at ten restaurants in The Dalles, Oregon with Salmonella typhi, sending 751 people to the hospital. Both Al Qaeda and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) were also discovered to be pursuing bio-war weapons. An Al Qaeda affiliate, Ansar al-Islam, was reported to have conducted bio-terrorism experiments in northeastern Iraq using nerve gas, aflatoxin, and ricin. An ISIL offshoot, Boko Haram, reportedly poisoned well and rivers in northeastern Nigeria with biological agents.

Falun Gong’s threat against New York City is even more alarming when considering the conclusion found in a February 10, 2014 “UK Secret UK Eyes Only” report from the Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) in Porton Down, England. The report warned that NSAs (non-state actors) could try to weaponize viruses like the deadly Ebola. It should be noted that Falun Gong falls into the category of a non-state actor

Editorial: There Is a Cure for the Chinese Communist Party Pneumonia—Say No to the CCP

Editorial: There Is a Cure for the Chinese Communist Party Pneumonia—Say No to the CCP

This year, the CCP virus (commonly known as the Wuhan virus or the novel coronavirus) spread rapidly while the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) concealed the real situation in China, causing incalculable losses to the world.
The plague seems to be unpredictable, but the way it spreads indicates the virus has a goal and a purpose: It is seeking out the CCP in order to eliminate it and the factors associated with it.

So far, the CCP virus has spread to most countries in the world, with more than 2.6 million people infected and 205,000 dead—assuming one takes at face value the official Chinese death toll of 4,642. In fact, many Chinese believe the real number is at least 10 times that.


Facing a huge loss of lives and economic devastation, the governments and peoples of various countries urgently need to reflect on the relationship between the plague and the Communist Party, and what individuals and countries should do to avoid the epidemic and save themselves.

The Communist Party’s dark history is intertwined with war, famine, plague, and death. The Epoch Times editorial series “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party” points out that “the essence of communism is an evil specter” whose ultimate goal is to destroy mankind. The CCP is the last representative of the evil specter of communism in the world.
The CCP’s 70-year tyranny has killed 80 million Chinese people and destroyed traditional Chinese culture and morality. In the past 30 years, from the Tiananmen Square massacre of pro-democracy students in 1989, to the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, which began in 1999, to the current suppression and bullying of Chinese people on a larger scale, the CCP’s violence and lies have brought catastrophes to China and the world.
For nearly 40 years, the CCP has used the bait of economic incentives to infiltrate and corrupt other countries. Under the cover of globalization, Confucius Institutes, and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and through various channels such as politics, economics, culture, education, science and technology, and so on, the CCP has sought to spread communist ideology, luring people away from the path set by the divine and leading them to betray the divine. It thus achieves its ultimate goal of destroying people.

When those countries and regions lured by economic interests increased their engagement with the CCP and endorsed it, they didn’t know that bad fortune tagged along. The path of the CCP virus as it has spread around the world goes through the countries, cities, organizations, and individuals that are closely related to the CCP.

New York City the Hotspot

As of April 27, according to data from the Johns Hopkins University statistics website, there were more than 967,000 confirmed cases and 55,000 deaths in the United States. The number of confirmed cases in New York state accounts for one-third of the national total, and the number of deaths accounts for nearly half.

Ever since President Richard Nixon’s visit to China in 1972, the United States has provided critical support to the CCP in various forms in the fields of politics, military affairs, diplomacy, economics, finance, education, and science and technology. Later, when the United States helped China to become a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), it gave the CCP access to the international community and caused huge amounts of Western wealth to be transferred to China, making it the “world’s factory.”

American political circles and think tanks believe that the United States has built China up and enriched the CCP. The reevaluation of which stance to take toward the CCP and subsequent policy changes have only happened in the past few years.
Without the help of the United States, and without the support of so many multinational companies, high-tech giants, and large financial groups, the CCP could not have quickly developed from a regime on the verge of economic collapse to an emerging hegemon capable of challenging the United States.

As the world’s No. 1 metropolis, New York City is the global center for the economy, finance, commerce, and media. It is also the location of the United Nations headquarters and has a great influence on global politics, education, and entertainment. In view of its special status and influence, the city of New York has played a major role in helping the CCP to achieve its agendas and advance its interests.

Wall Street, which represents American financial capital, has “transfused blood” to the CCP for many years and has become the behind-the-curtain financier helping the Chinese Communist regime prolong its life.

By infiltrating New York’s economy, finance, commerce, media, culture, education, Chinese-American community, and other fields, the CCP has channeled wealth and technology back to China. While exporting its ideology and abuse of human rights to the world, it has attempted to seize world leadership and challenge the United States.

These factors have made New York a major target of attack by the CCP virus.

Devastating Situation in Iran

The CCP considers Iran an intimate comrade-in-arms. While the official epidemic figures from Iran aren’t as high as those from some other countries, analysts believe Iran’s figures of confirmed cases and death toll must be greatly underreported. Similar to the CCP, Iran’s authoritarian regime has likely concealed the true scale in an attempt to “maintain social order.”

Many high-ranking Iranian officials have been infected, and many have died as a result, including Iran’s first vice president and the deputy health minister.

The CCP has been supporting Iran for years, offering economic aid and weapons. It has even provided key nuclear weapons technology to Iran in order to threaten and constrain democratic countries.

In the past 10 years, the CCP also made huge investments in Iran, becoming Iran’s largest trading partner. The CCP openly violated sanctions on Iran and imported a large amount of oil from it.

For the BRI, which the CCP launched in 2013 to export communist hegemony, Iran is an important geographical and strategic hub from which the CCP can penetrate Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Countries in Europe

Aside from China and Iran, out of nations with higher numbers of cases (5,000 or more), Spain has the highest relative number (466 per 100,000 people), with more than 225,000 cases and 23,000 deaths. Three close relatives of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and the deputy prime minister have been infected.

The severe epidemic sent a strong warning to Spain that the government’s pro-communist policies have brought misfortune to the country.

Spain was the first EU country to make friendly gestures toward the CCP after the Tiananmen Square massacre on June 4, 1989.

Sánchez chose to build closer relationships with the CCP after taking office in 2018. Not only did he reconfirm Spain’s “strategic partnership” with the Chinese regime, but he also praised the BRI. When the CCP was criticized by various countries for concealing the epidemic, Sánchez still repeatedly expressed support for it.

Italy is the hardest-hit area in Europe. The root cause of its being hit hard by the CCP virus is due to the intimate relationship between the Italian government and the CCP.

Italy is a member of the G-7 and a developed and democratic country. Despite the opposition of its allies, it formed an alliance with the CCP in March 2019 to “strengthen a comprehensive strategic partnership.” Italy is also the first EU country to sign onto the BRI.
Italy has 74 sister-city relationships with communist China, including the Lombardy region, which has the highest number of infections and deaths, and cities such as Milan, Venice, and Bergamo.

Major European countries such as the United Kingdom, France, and Germany are now also caught up in the CCP virus pandemic. People have suffered huge losses, and even the British prime minister has been infected.

One thing these countries have in common is that they have been “close to” the CCP in recent years. For instance, the CCP wants to use Huawei’s 5G technology to infiltrate the world, but the United Kingdom, France, and Germany have ignored U.S. warnings and given the company the green light.

The areas with the worst outbreaks in these countries—London in the UK, Oise in France, and North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany—have also forged friendly relations with the Chinese Communist Party.

When the pandemic hit the world, the experiences of European countries sounded the alarm to the world.

Severity in China’s Neighboring Countries Varies

Compared with European and American countries, the situations in the areas near mainland China more clearly illustrate the relationship between the epidemic and the CCP.

Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan are all close neighbors of mainland China. The numbers of people infected in Hong Kong and Taiwan are far lower than those in Japan and South Korea. The key difference is in these countries’ attitudes toward the CCP.

Currently, Japan and South Korea each have more than 10,000 confirmed infections. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, which have closer trade and economic relations with mainland China, the number of confirmed cases is only 1,037 and 429, respectively. Among them, the early cases in Hong Kong were imported from the mainland, and later infected persons included riot police and pro-government personnel. The vast majority of cases in Taiwan were imported from abroad.

Since establishing diplomatic relations with the CCP regime in 1992, South Korea has gradually strengthened its economic and trade relations with the CCP. After the current government came to power, it has moved closer to the CCP and has increased bilateral investment.

Although the relationship between the Japanese government and the CCP is not close, a large number of Japanese companies have invested in China, thereby relying on the CCP and transferring vital resources to it. Japan and the CCP have formed 256 ties of friendly provincial and municipal relations. Among them, Hokkaido, Tokyo, Aichi Prefecture, Kochi Prefecture, and other areas are experiencing serious outbreaks of the CCP virus.

Although Hong Kong and Taiwan have extremely close economic and trade relations with the mainland, the people of Hong Kong and Taiwan haven’t been blinded by their financial interests. In 2019, the people of Hong Kong launched large-scale protests against the CCP’s control and even risked their lives to stand up to it.
The brutal suppression of the Hong Kong protests lay bare the true face of the CCP and awakened the Taiwanese people. Voting this January for a pro-free world president showed the determination of the people of Taiwan to keep their distance from the CCP. The results of the presidential election saved Taiwan.

In Taiwan today, people aren’t quarantined at home and the economy hasn’t been suspended, yet the number of infections and deaths remains among the lowest in the world. The key to Taiwan’s anti-epidemic success lies in its distrust of the CCP and its refusal to blindly follow the World Health Organization (WHO), which is being controlled by the CCP.

The epidemic situation in Hong Kong and Taiwan reveals the secret of the success of prevention and self-help during the CCP virus pandemic: Only by rejecting the CCP can we resist the CCP virus.

An Effective Cure for the CCP Virus

Major plagues always come on suddenly and then, at a certain point, disappear without a trace. Historical records show that every plague had a clear target.

The bubonic plague at the end of the Ming Dynasty was a typical example. The transition from the Ming to the Qing dynasties, also known as the Manchu conquest of China, was a decadeslong period of battles between the Ming army, the Qing army (established by the Manchu clan in Northeast China), and the Li Zicheng army, a rebel peasant force.
The bubonic plague in this period of time pointed at the Ming army only, leaving the Qing and Li Zicheng armies unaffected.

It can be seen that the arrival of a plague is not accidental. The CCP virus epidemic was triggered by the CCP’s evil crimes, and it spread globally due to the CCP’s concealment. The spread of the virus shows a clear pattern: It is selectively targeting the CCP and is aimed at eliminating the CCP and those who are pro-communist or who have close ties with the CCP.

All regions that are hard-hit by the virus outside China are those having intimate ties with the CCP, those who have supported the CCP in terms of trade, investment, or helping the CCP improve its international image. Likewise, individuals who have been the CCP’s supporters often find themselves vulnerable to the CCP virus.

In fact, this spreading pattern helps to point out a life-saving path for all nations and people all over the world. It is a path that directly connects to the spiritual side of all beings.

Recently, there were several cases of people recovering from the CCP pneumonia miraculously after they condemned the CCP. Some cases can be found in media reports.

In March, three key politicians of the Vox party, Spain’s third-largest party, contracted the virus. They are Santiago Abascal, president of Vox; Javier Ortega Smith, secretary-general and the second most prominent position in the party; and Macarena Olona, member of the congress of deputies for Vox.
Amazingly, all three recovered from the CCP pneumonia shortly after they strongly condemned the CCP.

At an EU meeting, Vox proposed a resolution against the CCP and WHO. At a domestic parliament session, Vox requested an international investigation into the culpability of the Chinese communist regime.

In February, Connie Brix, a Danish woman, was infected with the CCP virus while traveling in Spain. Her condition worsened in March. After Brix learned about the CCP’s cover-up of the outbreak, she berated the CCP angrily for wreaking havoc on the entire world. Two days later, Connie’s symptoms disappeared and she, too, recovered miraculously.

In mainland China, after a patient was diagnosed with the CCP pneumonia, he denounced the CCP for concealing the epidemic and other evildoings. He then recovered, with all symptoms disappearing completely.

However, he was then deceived by the CCP ’s brainwashing propaganda and thought the CCP’s medical system was his savior, having provided an effective cure. He even felt thankful for the CCP. As a result, the CCP virus returned—he had a relapse and tested positive again.

These true stories tell us that one’s understanding of and attitude toward the CCP will determine whether he or she is immune to the virus. Rejecting and condemning the CCP is an effective cure for the virus.
Conversely, supporting the CCP, endorsing the CCP, or establishing a close partnership with the CCP, will likely invite the virus. Some may even experience a relapse if they choose to side with the CCP.

Everyone longs for peace and health amid a global pandemic. Facing this sudden disaster, the limitations of modern technology and management methods become obvious. Please keep in mind that the divine has been caring for humanity for thousands of years.

Look up at heaven, uphold your inner goodness, reflect on your actions, and reject the CCP—the representative of the greatest evil. By doing so, you will be protected by the divine. This is the most fundamental protection for mankind.

If someone is unfortunately infected with the CCP virus, we suggest that he or she sincerely says “down with the CCP.” Maybe a miracle will happen.

Staying away from the CCP and condemning the CCP can help any individual, organization, or country alleviate or even avoid attacks of the CCP virus. They may then embrace a wonderful future.

The pandemic occurred because of the CCP, and the situation will change when people change their attitudes toward the CCP. For various reasons, some people are reluctant to accept and believe this statement. They are also reluctant to face this serious issue.
Out of concern for the health of mankind and out of a sense of responsibility, we intend to reveal the truth and let more people benefit from it so that they can be free from the virus. We hope all kind-hearted people will get through this catastrophe as soon as possible.

Usa-Iran, scoppia la guerra delle petroliere - Shipmag

Teheran – “Gli Stati Uniti cercano di indebolire l’ordine mondiale e promuovere l’anarchia internazionale”. È l’accusa del portavoce del ministero degli Esteri iraniano Abbas Mousavi, in risposta alla notizia dello schieramento di quattro navi da guerra americane nei Caraibi per impedire possibili consegne di petrolio di Teheran al Venezuela. “Il trasferimento di carburante dell’Iran in Venezuela avviene nell’ambito del libero scambio e, se se gli americani compiono qualsiasi azione illegale, dovranno affrontare la risposta iraniana. Abbiamo dato il necessario avvertimento agli americani tramite l’ambasciatore svizzero a Teheran Markus Leitner – ha spiegato il portavoce della Repubblica islamica – e anche con una lettera del ministro degli Esteri Mohammad Javad Zarif al segretario generale dell’Onu Antonio Guterres. Speriamo che non si rendano protagonisti di azioni stupide“.

Yes we Can...Yes we Can....Yes we can die!!! the american dream but fuck.... there are homeless people dying on the street.

Coronavirus is revealing how broken America’s economy really is | Coronavirus outbreak | The Guardian

Coronavirus is revealing how broken America’s economy really is

We are told by everyone from the United Nations to Donald Trump that the US is a ‘developed’ economy. The statistics suggest otherwise

When Susan Finley developed flu-like symptoms, she didn’t go to the doctor because she was frightened about the cost. Finley’s grandparents later found her dead in her apartment. She was 53.

Finley did not die as a result of Covid-19. She died in 2016 as a result of America’s healthcare system – a system that led her to avoid treatment for the common flu in order to avoid debt. It is that same system that is currently creaking under the pressure of a pandemic that experts warned was coming but governments failed to prepare for. It is a system that does not qualify for the term “developed”.

The United States of America, we are told by everyone from the president to the United Nations, is a developed economy. That term, “developed economy”, sounds like an endpoint, like the man standing upright after a series of hunched and hairy iterations. It’s the contrast that makes the definition – developed economies can only really exist if they are compared to their poorer “developing” counterparts. Covid-19 has merely shown the cracks in a very successful marketing campaign about which category the US falls into.

There are 2.9 hospital beds for every 1,000 people in the United States. That’s fewer than Turkmenistan (7.4 beds per 1,000), Mongolia (7.0), Argentina (5.0) and Libya (3.7). In fact, the US ranks 69th out of 182 countries analyzed by the World Health Organization. This lack of hospital beds is forcing doctors across the country to ration care under Covid-19, pushing up the number of preventable deaths.

America’s numbers are similarly unimpressive when it comes to medical doctors. The United States has 2.6 doctors per 1,000 people, placing it behind Trinidad & Tobago (2.7), and Russia (4.0 doctors per 1,000, for a country that is described as being “in transition”). Life expectancies at birth are lower in the US than they are in Chile or China. The US has a higher maternal mortality rate than Iran or Saudi Arabia.

It’s not just health. Access to the internet is better in Bahrain and Brunei (two countries the UN does not consider developed economies) than it is in the US. Inequality scores are higher in America than they are in Mali and Yemen. A closer country to America in inequality is Israel, a country which functions as an apartheid state.

And the US ranks 81st in the world in terms of women’s political representation. So, you’ve got a better chance of making it into office as a woman if you live in Vietnam, or Albania. Sub-Saharan Africa is most comparable to America – 24% of seats in the region’s parliaments are held by women, the same figure as in the US.

In the United States, 83% of students graduate high school. That figure is higher in Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Barbados, Armenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Montenegro. None of those countries are considered “developed economies” by the United Nations.

So why does the United Nations consider the US as a developed economy when its own statistics so clearly suggest otherwise? One might argue that it’s about simple wealth, or gross domestic product (GDP), the broadest measure of the economy, per capita.

But if that were the measure of development then European countries such as Romania, Hungary and Slovakia should not qualify for the term “developed economy” while Bermuda, Qatar, Singapore and China should all make the list. Besides, GDP per capita is no reliable measure of wellbeing in a country like the US where the richest 5% of people own two-thirds of the national wealth.

The facts are as exhaustive as they are exhausting. There’s one simple conclusion from all of this. We’ve been tricked. We’ve been told that America, like most other majority-white countries, deserves the title “developed economy”. It does not. You cannot charge a woman $39.95 to hold the baby that she has just given birth to. You cannot constantly operate hospitals at close to capacity in order to maximize profits. The pursuit of private money in systems built for public good has not worked ethically or practically.

Why does it matter whether a country is defined as developing or not? Because it means that policymakers here can distract voters into thinking that crises are constantly diplomatic, military or trade based when actually the problems that America needs to fix most urgently are right here – they’re the crises of health and education. Had those problems been better addressed, the nation would not be struggling as desperately as it is right now.

Il Giappone sposta la produzione fuori dalla Cina pagando le sue aziende

Chiamare Alleanza storica quella tra giappone e america dopo che quest'ultimi gli hanno piantato una bomba atomica causando più di 150k morti fa pietà !!!

Hanno sempre avuto, gli americani, una non-alleanza con i nipponici riguardante la situazione geopolitica delle risorse naturali nel pacifico occidentale nelle più basse acque a largo delle coste australiane e neozelandesi per procacciarsi le risorse naturali di gas e petrolio. Come dimostra la Storia, esattamente nei primi anni del '900 con la War Plan Orange, dove il giappone si stava espandendo in oriente.

Oggi siccome gli amerikioni sono alla canna del gas cercano un modo per non foto.ers.i da soli e hanno preso la possibilità di una alleanza americana-giapponese. Ma in questo caso è il giappone che si fot.t.e con le proprie mani.

Il Giappone sposta la produzione fuori dalla Cina stanziando 2,2 miliardi di dollari per aiutare le proprie imprese. Favorevoli gli Stati Uniti

Lo scorso aprile il Giappone ha stanziato 2,2 miliardi di dollari per aiutare le proprie aziende a spostare la produzione fuori dalla Cina. Il motivo – o il pretesto, secondo alcuni analisti – è la crisi del coronavirus, che ha causato un blocco alla catena di approvvigionamento. Le industrie giapponesi sono infatti fortemente dipendenti dalla Cina per l’importazione di componenti e materie prime necessarie alla produzione. Più in generale, Pechino è il principale partner commerciale di Tokyo.

Con questa mossa, insomma, il Giappone punta a “sganciarsi” dalla Cina per rafforzare – diversificandola – la propria filiera manifatturiera, riportando parte della produzione in patria e trasferendo il resto in Paesi del sud-est asiatico. Non è un progetto semplice da realizzare, considerata l’importanza della Cina e del suo mercato, ma che – secondo un’analisi di The Diplomat – potrebbe avere successo, anche per ragioni geografiche.

La dipendenza del Giappone dalla Cina si è fatta sentire anche sul versante sanitario: il Giappone ha avuto difficoltà ad aumentare la produzione di mascherine e materiale medico per far fronte alla maggiore richiesta causata dall’epidemia. La settimana scorsa il Presidente americano Donald Trump ha telefonato al Primo Ministro giapponese Shinzo Abe proprio per rassicurarlo sul fatto che gli Stati Uniti sono pronti a inviare respiratori “in qualsiasi momento”.eh già! sono proprio dei benefattori questi leader occidentali....

La guerra tecnologica
La decisione di Abe di “allontanarsi” dalla Cina è stata accolta molto bene negli Stati Uniti, dove Trump ha peraltro dichiarato che potrebbe tagliare del tutto le relazioni con Pechino. Va specificato, a proposito, che il distacco giapponese dalla Cina potrebbe riguardare anche un aspetto centrale dello scontro tra Washington e Pechino: la tecnologia.

Venerdì l’amministrazione Trump ha imposto nuove restrizioni nei confronti di Huawei – la grossa azienda di telecomunicazioni cinese da tempo nel mirino nella Casa Bianca – con l’intento di bloccarne l’accesso ai semiconduttori: l’industria cinese dei semiconduttori non è molto sviluppata e la Cina ha bisogno di importarli dall’estero. Visto che il coordinamento tra Stati Uniti e Giappone è piuttosto stretto, è possibile che anche Tokyo possa limitare l’esportazione di chip verso la Cina.

I rapporti tra Giappone e Cina
La mossa di Tokyo è giunta però in un momento molto delicato per i rapporti con la Cina. A simboleggiare la nuova amicizia tra le due nazioni, ad aprile il Presidente cinese Xi Jinping avrebbe dovuto compiere la sua prima visita in Giappone.

Negli ultimi anni Shinzo Abe ha portato avanti un tentativo di riavvicinamento diplomatico con la Cina, senza per questo rinunciare all’alleanza storica con gli Stati Uniti. Tra Tokyo e Pechino ci sono comunque delle tensioni, soprattutto marittime: ad esempio, è ancora viva la disputa territoriale sulle isole Senkaku (o Diaoyu, per i cinesi) nel Mar cinese orientale, un’area ricca di risorse naturali. Proprio pochi giorni fa il Giappone ha protestato contro la Cina per un “incidente” tra un peschereccio giapponese e una nave della Guardia costiera cinese nelle acque intorno alle isole in questione.

Se gli Usa continueranno questa loro politica fallimentare non ne rimarrà altro che cenere di loro.

Stanno sanzionando nazioni d'oriente per impedire il Nuovo Mondo (vecchio continente) filo-eurasiatico di cui loro stanno in tutti i modi cercando di sopprime la sua venuta.

gli stati uniti stanno andando verso il loro declino con la dollarizzazione e la povertà che sussiste nella loro nazione. stanno cercando di arrampicarsi sugli specchi con la loro politica espansionistica ma stanno letteralmente fallendo la loro mansione giudaica-massonica.



Saying Goodbye to the Dollar

The widening gap between the current state of the US economy and the role of the dollar is nearing a tipping point. As America’s economic power relative to that of other countries and regions is shrinking, this means that the dollar will hold less and less of a privileged position.

Until recently, the dollar had such an unrivaled dominance that more than 60% of all foreign exchange reserves in central banks around the world were held in US dollars. More than a third of the world’s GDP is generated by countries that use the dollar as their official currency (e.g. Ecuador) or as a parallel currency (e.g. Panama). At least half of the world’s cross-border trade invoices are issued in dollars, which is five times America’s share of import trade worldwide and three times the country’s share of global exports.

The United States came out of both World War I and World War II as the world’s leading creditor, but they destroyed the economies of other countries that had fought in them. This pattern repeated itself after the Cold War. Washington has actively exploited this upper hand to strengthen the dollar, including its position as the “world’s reserve currency”, which has been remarkably stable over the past 75 years. This is even despite the constantly growing US federal budget deficit, which has already reached $ 24 trillion, exceeding the country’s annual GDP by 17%. And this national debt is growing at a rate of $ 4 trillion a year. The US has $ 200 trillion in unfunded liabilities, and the Federal Reserve holds nearly $ 7 trillion in increasingly risky and shadier assets. According to many experts, the galloping pace at which the US federal deficit is growing and the uncontrolled printing of US dollars could lead to economic implosion by the end of the year. This will not only deal the US economy a ****, but it will also affect the economies of countries that have invested in US stocks.

In a last-ditch attempt to push back the date of the impending financial apocalypse, the United States has printed massive amounts of money, which the American daily newsletter Bonner & Partners warns will inevitably lead to an economic disaster that will in many ways dwarf the Great Depression of 1929–1946. According to well-known American speculator Doug Casey who is the founder and chairman of Casey Research, Washington’s reckless policies have produced trillions in malinvestment that will inevitably be liquidated.

CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc. Peter Schiff correctly predicted the impending crisis back in 2006, pointing out that the imminent collapse of the dollar will be a doomsday for the entire American economy, which he referred to as a “sinking Titanic”. The very serious economic and financial consequences that await the United States, made even worse due to the coronavirus epidemic, have also been acknowledged by President Trump’s inner circle, and one of them is senior White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett, who has already projected that the United States is in for the “biggest negative shock to the jobs market that we’ve seen since World War II.”

Nevertheless, by maintaining America’s expansionist policy in international trade and using whatever means necessary to keep the dollar from falling, the current White House administration is continuing to use the dollar’s reserve currency status as a weapon to impose sanctions against its enemies, especially by cutting off their access to the global dollar-clearing system. In 2017 for instance, US Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin warned China that it could be prevented from accessing the dollar clearing system if it does not follow the United Nations sanctions approved on North Korea. In 2018, the US Treasury Department imposed penalties totaling approximately $1.3 billion on French bank Société Générale for violating US trade sanctions against Cuba. In the same year, the US Treasury imposed sanctions on Russian company RUSAL, the world’s second largest aluminum producer, to prevent the aluminum giant from freely using the dollar financial system, which experts say had a devastating effect. On January 10, Washington announced measures aimed at halting support for the Iranian regime according to Treasury Secretary Mnuchin. In the same week, the State Department said that Iraq could have its government accounts at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shut down, which would limit Iraq’s ability to use oil sale revenue, leading to a cash crunch that could deal the country’s economy a detrimental ****.

There are many other similar examples of threats from Washington and sanctions it has levied against Iran, Russia, China, and even EU countries that refused to toe the line as dictated by the US The United States currently has more than 30 active financial and trade sanctions programs.

It is therefore only natural that a growing number of countries which have recently become aware of the danger of dollar dependence and are either already being targeted by dollar sanctions or could soon be targeted have begun voicing their rejection of this policy, which uses the dollar to discipline, blackmail and dictate them.

The Economist highlights that using the dollar to expand the scope of American law and policy has become President Trump’s mantra in “America first!”. Many countries understandably view this as an abuse of power. These countries not only include China and Russia, but also America’s closest, such as Britain and France. The Economist notes that this could ultimately lead to the dollar being dethroned, as other countries are already looking for an alternative to America’s powerful currency. The new age of international monetary experimentation features the de-dollarization of assets, trade workarounds using local currencies and swaps, and new bank-to-bank payment mechanisms and digital currencies. In June the Chinese and Russian Presidents said they would expand settlement of bilateral trade in their own currencies. More and more countries have joined them recently, trading in local currencies. On the sidelines of a recent summit, leaders from Iran, Malaysia, Turkey and Qatar proposed using cryptocurrencies, national currencies, gold and barter for trade. Director Tom Keatinge of the Centre for Financial Crime and Security Studies at the RUSI think tank rightly notes that all of this would suggest we are nearing a “tipping point”. Countries used to stop at just expressing their dissatisfaction with America’s clout as the predominant financial power, but now they are beginning to go to the lengths to resist it.

Experts note that now not only do America’s geopolitical rivals want to avoid dollar dominance, so do many US allies. In her manifesto for 2019-24, Ursula von der Leyen, the new President of the European Commission, said: “I want to strengthen the international role of the euro.” Her predecessor Jean-Claude Juncker has called the dollar’s dominance in European energy trade an “aberration”. As a result, the European Commission is now working on a new action plan, part of which involves encouraging EU countries to eliminate “undue reference” to the dollar in payments and trade.

Another red flag which could have contributed to an accelerated de-dollarization that many countries have reacted to was outlined in an article published in the Washington Post about US government officials beginning to map out a strategy for seeking retaliatory measures to cancel part of its debt obligations to China. In response, the South China Morning Post warns that China could sell part of the US national debt and thereby trigger a crash in the US dollar.

It follows that the end of the dollar era is drawing closer with each day Washington continues to pursue its failed policy.


Saying Goodbye to the Dollar | New Eastern Outlook

E tempo che il Giappone diventi uno Stato indipendente – Aurora

Mentre il mondo intero subisce le tragiche conseguenze della pandemia di coronavirus, gli ultimi scandali anti-americani guadagnano slancio in Giappone. L’agenzia di stampa Kyodo fu la prima a riferire l’annuncio del Ministro della Difesa giapponese Taro Kono, il 17 aprile, secondo cui un’indagine congiunta sarebbe stata condotta dalle forze armate giapponesi e statunitensi su una fuoriuscita di sostanze organiche cancerogene (schiuma antincendio) presso l’US Marine Corps Air Station di Futenma sull’isola di Okinawa. Tuttavia, il ministro giapponese non fornì dettagli sulla natura dell’indagine. L’articolo menziona brevemente che prima di questo annuncio, il Vicegovernatore della Prefettura di Okinawa, Kiichiro Jahana, aveva incontrato l’ammiraglio comandante della base aerea nordamericana per protestare su questa fuoriuscita. L’incidente avvenne il 10 aprile, quando circa 143mila litri di schiuma antincendio fuoriuscirono presso la stazione aerea, e contenente PFOS, sospettata di essere cancerogena. In termini di area, il 70% delle strutture militari nordamericane in Giappone si trova su quest’isola. Ogni tipo di incidenti si verificarono regolarmente nella base militare di Futenma.

Le autorità di Okinawa chiedono da tempo la chiusura della base aerea di Futenma, che si trova nell’area urbana densamente popolata della città di Ginowan. L’incidente ebbe luogo il 10 aprile intensificando le richieste avanzate dai residenti di Okinawa e dall’Assemblea Prefetturale di Okinawa per far chiudere le operazioni presso la base aerea Futenma, ma gli Stati Uniti non intrapresero alcuna azione in risposta a queste richieste, né fecero nulla per impedire tali incidenti indesiderati.

Un altro scandalo che guadagna slancio riguarda l’alleanza militare e politica tra Stati Uniti e Giappone. Come notato nella rivista Shuukan Gendai, il Giappone è caduto nella trappola degli USA, e ne è ora effettivamente il fedele piccolo “Stato vassallo”,causa delle nuove disgrazie che colpivano il Giappone. La pubblicazione sottolinea che gli USA sono responsabile del caos in cui il Medio Oriente fu a lungo impantanato, e ora sembra che il Giappone debba rispondere alle azioni degli USA. Tuttavia, l’alleanza con essi vale tutto questo? Questa è la domanda posta da Shuukan Gendai, che pubblicò informazioni sulla difficile situazione che le forze di autodifesa giapponesi stazionate in Medio Oriente soffrivano, che furono praticamente lasciate sulle navi, mentre affrontavano la pandemia di coronavirus. Per arrivare al fondo dei problemi che il Giappone vive, Shuukan Gendai ricorda ai lettori un piano speciale adottato dal Gabinetto di Abe nel dicembre 2019, senza aver ricevuto l’approvazione preventiva dalla Dieta.

Col pretesto del peggioramento della situazione politica e militare “tra crescenti tensioni tra Stati Uniti ed Iran”, due aerei da pattugliamento antisommergibile P-3C con oltre 100 voli e personale tecnico furono dispiegati nella regione per “la raccolta di informazioni” all’inizio del 2020, nonché il cacciatorpediniere lanciamissili Takanami, che operava nel Golfo dell’Oman, dove alcuna forza della coalizione forniva sostegno al Giappone. La base delle forze di autodifesa giapponese si trova a Gibuti. Va notato che anche se gli Stati Uniti avevano invitato più di 60 Paesi a partecipare alla coalizione anti-iraniana (formalmente creata da Washington nel novembre 2019), solo 6 Paesi aderivano alla coalizione navale del Golfo Persico guidata dagli Stati Uniti. Oltre agli USA, vi sono Regno Unito, Australia, Bahrayn, Arabia Saudita, Emirati Arabi Uniti ed Albania. Alla coalizione si unì la Lituania in una fase successiva. Il Giappone non è ufficialmente membro della coalizione, ma l’esercito giapponese afferma che se le sue truppe si ritirassero dalla regione, si creerebbe un divario, lasciando la coalizione vulnerabile.

Da marzo, la probabilità che le forze di autodifesa giapponesi rimangano fu seriamente compromessa dalla pandemia di coronavirus nel mondo. Ciò era dovuto principalmente alle restrizioni sui 200 membri dell’equipaggio del cacciatorpediniere Takanami, che si astengono dal lasciare la nave per evitare di essere infettati da Covid-19, e anche alla chiusura dei confini di Gibuti, che non consente si sostituire equipaggi e personale della manutenzione dei due aerei di pattugliamento antisommergibile P-3C.

Dato che i marinai non possono lasciare la nave, vivono in condizioni anguste e le forze di autodifesa giapponesi furono dispiegate in Medio Oriente senza i necessari kit di test, senza avere abbastanza riposo e soffrendo di gravi stress. Data questa situazione, Shuukan Gendai si domandava se valga la pena rischiare la vita dell’equipaggio per ripulire il caos creato dagli Stati Uniti, le cui azioni scatenavano il caos nella regione.

Allo stesso tempo, la stampa giapponese ricordava una dichiarazione del Ministro della Difesa Taro Kono a gennaio dopo aver tenuto colloqui col capo del Pentagono Mark Esper, secondo cui il Giappone non avrebbe partecipato alle operazioni statunitensi per proteggere il Golfo Persico da possibili attacchi dall’Iran. Persino il Mainichi Shimbun, quotidiano conservatore notava che la completa dipendenza dagli Stati Uniti portava il Giappone a seguire “alla cieca” la politica estera nordamericana, e la decisione deal Gabinetto di Abe di dispiegare una piccola unità delle forze di autodifesa del Giappone in Medio Oriente ne fosse una chiara prova . Il controverso piano per costruire una nuova base militare nordamericana a Henoko ne era un’ulteriore prova.

Il giornale notava che il governo giapponese aveva torto a reprimere le proteste dei residenti locali contro la costruzione di tale nuova base. Il governo deve anche agire con urgenza per far fronte alle numerose violazioni dei diritti civili e della sicurezza che i cittadini subiscono ad Okinawa per mano dell’esercito nordamericano. Ciò erodeva la fiducia tra le parti del Trattato di mutua cooperazione e sicurezza tra Stati Uniti e Giappone, indebolendola.

Un tema comune attraversa l’articolo del quotidiano liberale Asahi Shimbun, che la convinzione che da quando il presidente Trump fu eletto con lo slogan “America first!”, le sue decisioni militari e politiche miopi abbiano messo a rischio il Trattato di mutua cooperazione e Sicurezza tra Stati Uniti e Giappone.

La domanda su come il Giappone debba cooperare cogli USA è attualmente un vero problema, poiché gli Stati Uniti passavano dall’essere il “guardiano” dell’attuale ordine mondiale all’istigatore di disordine e caos. L’Hokkaido Shimbun ricordava quotidianamente le proteste di massa scoppiate in Giappone quando fu firmato il Trattato di mutua cooperazione e sicurezza nel 1960, nonché il fatto che la sua approvazione da parte della Dieta fu praticamente imposta. Il giornale Akahata richiamava in particolare l’attenzione sul fatto che numerosi allegati segreti furono inclusi quando fu firmato il trattato, secondo cui l’esercito nordamericano può schierare armi nucleari sulle isole giapponesi e condurre operazioni militari senza avvisare il Giappone, e questo non solo in Estremo Oriente, ma in qualsiasi parte del mondo. Gli Stati Uniti già utilizzavano il territorio giapponese per lanciare attacchi a Vietnam, Afghanistan e Iraq.

Finora, il Giappone rimane uno dei partner più stretti degli USA in Asia orientale. Questa situazione è certamente un paradosso, date quante volte azioni intraprese dagli Stati Uniti furono ostili nei confronti del Giappone e dei cittadini giapponesi. Un esempio fu l’internamento degli americo-giapponesi il 17 marzo 1942, quando 120 mila residenti statunitensi di etnia giapponese o di origine giapponese furono ricollocati e incarcerati nei campi di concentramento, anche se erano cittadini nordamericani che avevano solo un antenato, bisnonna o bisnonno di nazionalità giapponese. Ciò che accadde ai giapponesi sul territorio degli Stati Uniti al tempo era puramente alimentato dal razzismo e non vi fu alcuna giustificazione militare. Quindi, nella notte del 9-10 marzo 1945, avvenne il bombardamento di Tokyo, considerato come il più distruttivo bombardamento nella storia umana, ancor più dei bombardamenti atomici di Hiroshima e Nagasaki. Più e più volte nei 60 anni trascorsi dalla firma del Trattato di mutua cooperazione e sicurezza, il Giappone ha dovuto subire atti illegali commessi dalle forze d’occupazione nordamericane. Non sorprende quindi che, sebbene tra i circoli del governo giapponese di oggi vi sia il desiderio di dimostrare la volontà praticamente servile di seguire le orme di Washington, il pubblico giapponese scenda in piazza a manifestare piuttosto frequentemente chiaramente cercando di esprimere il rifiuto delle politiche ed azioni statunitensi, in Giappone e altrove nel mondo

Bruno Guigue, geopolitologue, sur l’hostilite antichinoise montante en Occident : <<Pour de nombreux pays, Pekin represente une alternative credible a une hegemonie occidentale defaillante>> | REPORTERS ALGERIE

Reporters : Aux invectives devenues habituelles de Donald Trump s’ajoute une méfiance croissante des Européens quant aux origines et à la gestion de la crise sanitaire par Pékin. Comment expliquer la montée de l’agressivité envers la Chine dans les discours des gouvernements occidentaux en plein épidémie du Covid-19 relayés méthodiquement par les grands médias ?

Bruno Guigue : L’avalanche de propagande contre la Chine a pris pour prétexte la crise sanitaire actuelle, mais elle figure sur l’agenda occidental depuis longtemps, et au moins depuis le deuxième mandat d’Obama. Trump a radicalisé cette hostilité, mais elle existait à l’état latent depuis une bonne décennie. Mais, aujourd’hui, la dénonciation de la Chine n’est plus seulement une posture, c’est devenu une politique. Quand on dit que la Chine est un ennemi systémique, inutile de faire un dessin.

Durant cette pandémie du Covid, la Chine s’est illustrée par une posture positive en aidant les pays amis et même certains pays européens en difficulté. La Chine, qui a géré efficacement la pandémie chez elle, a-t-elle gagné des points sur le plan géopolitique ?

Oui, bien sûr. La principale raison de l’hostilité occidentale, précisément, c’est que la coopération avec Pékin, pour de nombreux pays, représente une alternative crédible à une hégémonie occidentale défaillante. Le problème n’est pas que la Chine veut dominer le monde, ni qu’elle veut exporter son modèle. C’est faux dans les deux cas. Le problème, du moins pour l’Occident, c’est qu’elle est à la fois plus performante et moins intrusive que les Occidentaux. Cette situation était antérieure à la crise actuelle, mais celle-ci l’a exacerbée. Quand Pékin envoie une équipe médicale en Italie, la démonstration est faite que l’UE ne vaut strictement rien. Quand la Chine livre des médicaments au Venezuela, elle fait un bras d’honneur à Washington. Ce retour de la puissance chinoise dans l’arène internationale, après des décennies de discrétion, est un évènement majeur qui coïncide avec le formidable développement du pays sous l’égide du parti communiste. Le paradoxe, c’est que l’inconséquence occidentale est largement à l’origine de cette renaissance de la politique chinoise, comme si un système de vases communicants transfusait l’énergie d’un Occident délabré vers la puissance montante. De ce point de vue, la crise du Covid-19 accélère le basculement du monde.

Cette crise sanitaire mondiale exacerbée pourrait-elle aller jusqu’à provoquer une confrontation militaire entre les Etats-Unis et la Chine ?

Je ne crois pas à un affrontement militaire de grande ampleur entre les États-Unis et la Chine, pour la simple raison qu’aucun des deux n’est assuré de vaincre, et que la seule chose certaine, c’est la destruction mutuelle. Les USA adorent la guerre, mais ils la pratiquent contre plus faible qu’eux. Et même dans ce cas, ils trouvent le moyen de la perdre. Vous voyez vraiment le Pentagone se lancer à l’assaut de la Chine ? C’est risible.

Le sentiment anti-chinois dans le monde n’a jamais été aussi fort estime un rapport de l’Institut chinois des relations internationales contemporaines révélé par Reuters. Y a-t-il réellement selon vous une désaffection envers la Chine et si ça se trouve est-elle réelle ou sciemment entretenue ?

La désaffection à l’égard de la Chine est entretenue par des médias occidentaux serviles et falsificateurs, et malheureusement les calomnies dont elle fait l’objet répandent leurs fruits empoisonnés. Mais ne prenons pas l’Occident pour le centre du monde. 80 pays coopèrent avec Pékin dans le cadre des nouvelles routes de la soie. Les peuples ne sont pas aveugles. En Asie, en Afrique, en Amérique latine, chacun peut voir ce que fait la Chine, la juger sur pièce, la critiquer si nécessaire, mais je doute que, globalement, son image soit plus négative que celle des puissances occidentales.

Ce séisme sanitaire mondial donnera-t-il selon vous naissance à de nouveaux équilibres dans les relations internationales ?

Sans doute, car la Chine a une longueur d’avance sur les autres pays. Elle a géré la crise sanitaire de façon magistrale, sans même se poser la question de la priorité à donner à la santé publique. Elle a accepté de payer le prix d’une brève contraction de son économie pour juguler la propagation du virus, et cette politique a porté ses fruits.
La mobilisation des moyens, sous l’égide d’un État fort, a impressionné l’opinion mondiale, et elle représente à cet égard un exemple à méditer. Le paradoxe, c’est que la pandémie semble venir de la Chine, du moins jusqu’à preuve du contraire, et on a de moins en moins de certitudes à ce sujet, et c’est la Chine qui semble tirer les marrons du feu, car elle a su imposer son propre tempo au phénomène viral sur son propre territoire en utilisant toutes les ressources de l’action publique. Le deuxième aspect de la question, c’est le redémarrage économique, qui semble aujourd’hui acquis en Chine, alors que le monde occidental s’enfonce dans un marasme sans précédent. Ce contraste entre un Occident incapable de faire face au défi de la pandémie et une Chine, et au-delà de la Chine, une Asie orientale qui réalise une performance remarquable du point de vue de la gestion publique, doit être sérieusement médité. Quand on voit la situation lamentable des États-Unis, manifestement aggravée par l’irresponsabilité de son administration, on se demande comment certains peuvent encore voir dans cette puissance, dont l’arrogance progresse au même rythme que sa déliquescence, un leader crédible pour l’Occident tout entier.

George Soros Wants You to Believe Russia Is a Danger to World Peace, Turkey’s Erdogan an Angel - American Herald Tribune

George Soros is a billionaire Hungarian-born investor who is extremely controversial due to his promotion of what he chooses to define as democracy and free-trade movements, primarily conducted through the Open Society Foundations, which he founded and has funded with $32 billion, according to one estimate. He contributed to the campaigns of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, which has in part led to conservative politicians in the United States and elsewhere frequently citing Soros when complaining about politically motivated interference in support of a progressive agenda for the United States and also globally. At least they used to do so until Soros’s allies began to fire back with accusations of anti-Semitism, which had the effect of muting the complaints.

Soros moved from Europe to the United States in 1956 and is now an American citizen. The sources of at least some of his wealth are somewhat controversial. He made over $1 billion in 1992 by selling short $10 billion in British pounds sterling, leading to the media dubbing him “the man who broke the bank of England.” He has been accused of similar currency manipulation in both Europe and Asia. In 1999, New York Times economist Paul Krugman was highly critical of Soros’s interference in financial markets, writing, “Nobody who has read a business magazine in the last few years can be unaware that these days there really are investors who not only move money in anticipation of a currency crisis, but actually do their best to trigger that crisis for fun and profit. These new actors on the scene do not yet have a standard name; my proposed term is ‘Soroi.’ ”

Soros was heavily involved with the restructuring of former communist regimes in eastern Europe and had a hand in the so-called Rose Revolution in Georgia in 2003 and the Maidan Revolution in Ukraine in 2014, both of which were supported by the U.S. government. But in March 2017, six conservative U.S. senators sent a letter to then-Secretary of State Rex Tillerson asking him to look into several grants that the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) had given to groups connected to Soros, most particularly in Macedonia. Soros’s projects are particularly targeted by conservatives and nationalists, as they are transnational in nature, and, indeed, some critics have noted that the well-funded and broadly supported Open Society is the most effective and visible weapon in the arsenal of the progressive dominated globalist movement.

Soros has been linked to a number of theories that see him as a puppet-master pulling the strings on a worldwide conspiracy to control key elements of the world economy as well as leading politicians. His critics are generally conservatives who are opposed to the progressive causes that he promotes. Soros has been in the news recently for his financial support of a Washington-based think tank called the Quincy Institute, which is also funded by the libertarian Koch family. The institute claims to be a non-partisan organization that promotes a “restrained” foreign policy using diplomacy as a means to resolve international disputes rather than threats followed up by warfare, which has become the preferred option for successive U.S. presidents and their administrations.

Soros’s motives in suddenly embracing diplomacy and non-intervention might well be questioned. On March 4, the Financial Times published an op-ed (unfortunately behind a paywall) by Soros entitled “Europe Must Stand With Turkey Over Putin’s War Crimes in Syria.” It had the subtitle “Focusing on the Refugee Crisis Russia Has Created Addresses Symptoms Not the Cause.” In it, he let loose a sharp attack on both the Kremlin and President Vladimir Putin.
The Soros op-ed is full of errors of fact and is basically a call for aggression against Russia. It starts with, “Since the beginning of its intervention in Syria in September 2015, Russia has not only sought to keep in place its most faithful Arab ally, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. It has also wanted to regain the regional and global influence that it lost since the fall of the Soviet Union.” First of all, Russia did not “intervene” in Syria. It was invited there by the country’s legitimate government to provide assistance against various groups, some of which were linked to al Qaeda and the Islamic State, that were seeking to overthrow President al-Assad.

And apart from Soros, few actual experts on Russia would claim that it is seeking to recreate the “influence” of the Soviet Union. Moscow does not have the resources to do so and has evinced no desire to pursue the sort of global agenda that was characteristic of the Soviet state.

There then follows a complete flight into hyperbole with: “Vladimir Putin has sought to use the turmoil in the Middle East to erase international norms and advances in international humanitarian law made since the second world war. In fact, creating the humanitarian disaster that has turned almost 6 million Syrians into refugees has not been a byproduct of the Russian president’s strategy in Syria. It has been one of his central goals.” None of Soros’s assertions are supported by fact. The U.S. and Israel are the two top flaunters of international norms and law, not Russia, and there is no evidence whatsoever that Moscow sought to create the “humanitarian disaster” in Syria. That was the work of the U.S. and its “allies” in the region who were supporting both separatists and terrorists.

Soros states his belief that “Assad is the most barbarous ruler that the world has seen since Joseph Stalin. When his own people rose up against him, he developed a military strategy designed to inflict the greatest possible harm on his civilian opponents. He deliberately targeted hospitals, schools and kindergartens, trying to kill or maim caregivers. He has used poison gas and chemical attacks over the course of a conflict that has left more than half a million dead.”(NOTARE LA PSYOP DEI MAINSTREAM) None of the assertions are true and a lot of the “evidence” comes from propagandists for the terrorist groups, to include the notorious White Helmets. The lies advanced about the use of chemical weapons have recently been exposed.

Soros goes on to describe how Russia has “deliberately targeted” and bombed schools and hospitals, claims that largely derive from sources hostile to al-Assad and Putin that are impossible to check. Soros also asserts that, “The only government that has put up military forces to defend the civilians trapped in Idlib by Mr. Assad and its Russian ally is Turkey.”8CANE AL GUINZAGLIO DEI AMERIKIONI) It is a claim that is perhaps the biggest lie of all, as Ankara is involved in Syria in support of its own completely selfish irredentist objectives and its desire to crush the Kurdish militias operating in the north and east of the country. Back in October, Turkey’s President Recep Erdogan issued an emotional call to Jihad to his supporters, saying, “Inshallah, God has promised us in Syria victory from Allah and an imminent conquest; and give good tidings to the believers. We see it is happening right now.”

The Soros op-ed also included a bit of reminiscence, describing how, “In 2014, I urged Europe to wake up to the threat that Russia was posing to its strategic interests, albeit in a different context and geography. Russia had invaded Ukraine knowing that Europe would seek to avoid any confrontation with Moscow. Yet what is happening in Idlib now is following the same pattern: Europe is evading a confrontation with Russia over its Syria policy when it should be standing up to it . . . with respect to Syria at least, Turkey deserves Europe’s support. Europe should therefore seek to bolster Turkish President Erdogan’s negotiating position. . . . I hope that this would also put Mr. Putin’s war crimes at the center of the European conversation.”VORREBBERO FARCI DIVENTARE SCHIAVI LORO CONFONDENDOCI LE IDEE TRAMITE I MAINSTREAM CONTROLLATI DA LORO.

The op-ed is neither conciliatory nor “diplomatic” and is a clear sign that Soros picks his enemies based on ideological considerations that also drive his choices on how to frame his ventures. He is a billionaire who has chosen to use his money to remake the world in an image that he is comfortable with. MONDO DEGRADATO, CONFUSO E SPIRITUALMENTE ANNIENTATO. Unfortunately, there is a lot of that kind of thinking going around—that having lots of money ipso facto equates to some kind of superior wisdom. And the whole process is facilitated by the fact that politicians as well as space on editorial pages of leading newspapers can easily be bought. Soros would have Europe and the United States taking on Russia over what he perceives to be going on in Syria, where they have no genuine interests. It is a formula that we have seen played out repeatedly in the past 20 years and can only lead to disaster.

(UN)HOLY ALLIANCE: UK's BAE Systems Sold Almost $20bln in Weapons to Saudi Arabia During Their Aggression on Yemen - Fort Russ

LONDON/RIYADH – United Kingdom’s leading arms manufacturer is found to have sold more than £15 billion ($18.9) worth of arms to Saudi Arabia since the Wahhabi kingdom started a brutal war of aggression against Yemen, the Arab world’s most impoverished nation.

The Guardian carried a news article last Tuesday, citing data obtained from the BAE (British Aerospace) Systems’ most recent annual report that has also been newly analyzed by Britain’s Campaign Against the Arms Trade (CAAT). The sum includes £2.5 billion in revenues that the company received from Saudi arms sales in 2019.

The sales came despite a ruling by Britain’s Court of Appeal in June last year that all British arms exports that could be used against Yemen were to be halted.

Andrew Smith of the CAAT, meanwhile, said, “The last five years have seen a brutal humanitarian crisis for the people of Yemen, but for BAE it’s been business as usual. The war has only been possible because of arms companies and complicit governments willing to support it.”

The data further showed that the true value of the UK’s arms sales to Saudi Arabia is far greater than the £5.3bln total value of the country’s export licenses since March 2015, when Riyadh and a coalition of its allies launched the military campaign.

The gap has been due to the fact that arms have also been sold to the Saudi kingdom under open licenses, which authorize the sales without recording the cost under the official export total.

“These figures expose the cozy relationship between the Saudi regime and BAE. But they also imply that the value of UK arms sales is far greater than government figures show,” Smith added.

Riyadh is BAE’s third-biggest buyer. The company maintains and supplies Tornado warplanes to the kingdom and provides “operational capability” to its Air Force and Navy.

Saudi Arabia and its allies have been staging indiscriminate attacks against Yemen since March 2015 to put the country’s former Saudi-allied officials back in the saddle. The war — which has the support of the UK, the US and other Western states — has killed tens of thousands of Yemenis and rendered at least 80 percent of Yemen’s 28-million-strong population dependent on aid for survival.

The UK government has been under fire for keeping up arms sales to the Saudi regime despite widespread reports that the weapons are being used against Yemeni civilians and non-military infrastructure. Last week, the invaders claimed they were halting military operations in support of United Nations peace efforts and to avoid further spread of the new coronavirus in Yemen.

The Yemeni army, however, reported days afterwards that it had been forced to repel several Saudi-led assaults on various fronts in just one day. The Houthi Ansarullah movement — which runs Yemen and leads its armed forces — said the Western-backed coalition had even ramped up its acts of aggression since announcing the so-called truce.

Palestina recede da tutti accordi con Usa, Israele - Abbas - Sputnik Italia

Lo ha annunciato il presidente dell'Autorità Nazionale Palestinese, Mahmoud Abbas, martedì sul canale Al-Jazeera.
I palestinesi hanno deciso di porre fine a tutti gli accordi con l'Israele e gli Stati Uniti tra le intenzioni dello stato ebraico di estendere la propria sovranità sulle "terre palestinesi", ha dichiarato martedì il capo dell'Autorità palestinese Mahmoud Abbas in un discorso alla leadership del Paese.

"L'Organizzazione per la liberazione della Palestina e lo stato palestinese da oggi stanno recedendo da tutti gli obblighi previsti da tutti gli accordi con i governi degli Stati Uniti e di Israele, compresi quelli relativi alla sicurezza", ha affermato Abbas.

Il leader palestinese ha chiesto a Israele di assumersi la piena responsabilità nei confronti della comunità internazionale come "forza occupante nel territorio occupato della Palestina".

Abbas ha accusato gli Stati Uniti di ingiustizia nei confronti del popolo palestinese e ha definito Washington il principale partner di Israele in tutte le decisioni ostili.

"Riteniamo gli Stati Uniti pienamente responsabili dell'ingiustizia nei confronti del popolo palestinese, li consideriamo il principale partner del governo israeliano occupante in tutte le sue decisioni ostili", ha affermato Abbas nel suo discorso.

Il leader palestinese ha inoltre affermato che l'Autorità Nazionale Palestinese "ribadisce la sua disponibilità a risolvere il conflitto con Israele sulla base della decisione di creare due Stati con la presenza di una terza parte ai confini tra i due Stati".

La Palestina insiste sul diritto di essere inclusa nelle organizzazioni internazionali, ha sottolineato Abbas.

"Oggi continuiamo a chiedere l'ingresso dello Stato di Palestina alle organizzazioni e istituzioni internazionali in cui non siamo ancora inclusi", ha detto Abbas in onda sul canale televisivo Al-Jazeera.

In precedenza Abbas ha ripetutamente avvertito Israele che strapperà qualsiasi accordo bilaterale se lo stato ebraico tenterà di estendere la sua sovranità su parti della Cisgiordania, che è ora possibile grazie al nuovo governo israeliano d'unità.

La fondazione Rockefeller sta progettando un piano d'azione nazionale per il contenimento e controllo del covid-19 con il titolo propagandistico "National covid-19 testing action plan. Pragmatic steps to reopen our workplace and our comunities".

Questo progetto di riorganizzazione della Nazione statunitense in senso verticistico e militarizzato, definiti negli anni orsono come colpi di Stato, servono per il controllo della popolazione.

Il Progetto crea al vertice un Consiglio di controllo della pandemia analogo al consiglio di produzione di guerra che gli Stati Uniti crearono durante la IIWW.

Il Consiglio è composto da bussiman, principalmente uomini della finanza e dell'economia, governo e da strutture accademiche di prestigio come Harvard, Yale e Hopkins (tutte università filo giudaiche-massoniche che addentro hanno la Skull and Bones, società segreta che funge, come disse Rick Fantasia da :"condotto verso la Corte Suprema, la CIA, gli studi legali e i consigli di amministrazione più prestigiosi del paese").

Il Consiglio ha poteri straordinari, che fanno capo alla legge per la produzione della difesa che conferisce al Presidente degli Stati Uniti di concentrare determinate produzioni nazionali e determinate trasformazioni dell'economia statunitense rapporto alle esigenze, ad esempio la difesa militare.

In altre parole questo Consiglio si avvalerà di Poteri che aspettano al Presidente.

Questo Consiglio ha come primo l'obbiettivo di raggiungere ed effettuare fino a tre mln di test covid-19 in un arco di una settimana e nell'arco dei prossimi sei mesi di effettuare 30 mln di test a settimana mentre vorrebbero raggiungere entro un arco di un anno i trenta milioni di test al giorno. Questi test hanno un costo unitario, valutato sul prezzo equo di mercato, di cento dollari.

In sostanza vorrebbero risanare il debito americano e incrementare l'entrare per la Difesa Nazionale con i soldi dei cittadini.

Come secondo obbiettivo, il Consiglio ha il progetto di creare garanzie di credito e stipulare contratti.

In altre parole, creare una sorta di "economia di covid-19".

In terzo luogo ha l'obbiettivo di costituire un corpo speciale definito " corpo di risposta alla pandemia".

Notare che il termine "corpo" viene utilizzato nell'esercito americano, come ad esempio il corpo dei marines.

Si può pensare, senza tanti dubbi, che la terminologia da loro utilizzata è strettamente correlata in senso militare.

Questo "corpo" di tipo militare dovrebbe essere composto tra 100k e 300k soldati con un consto medio annuo di 40k dollari.

In altre parole, la Foundation Rockefeller ha intenzioni di creare un esercito militarizzato che controlla la popolazione statunitense pagata da cittadini statunitensi.

Questa Fondazione ha un'altro l'obiettivo, ovvero, creare sistemi di tracciamento e identificazione digitale i cui dati andrebbero in una piattaforma congestita dallo Stato federale e da società private. Essi assicurano i cittadini americani dicendogli, che per quanto possibile, i dati dovrebbero essere protetti e convergere per stabile le procedure da seguire.

Trump: "Non chiuderemo il Paese in caso di seconda ondata Covid-19"
morti gli USA sono al primo posto tra i Paesi colpiti dalla pandemia del Covid-19.
Qualora nei prossimi mesi dovesse prodursi una seconda ondata epidemica di Covid-19, gli Stati Uniti d'America non attueranno un nuovo lockdown.

Ad affermarlo è il presidente Donald Trump durante un tour in una fabbrica della Ford Motor Company in Michigan riconvertita per la produzione di ventilatori polmonari.:

"Dicono che sia una possibilità molto concreta. E' normale. Terremo la situazione sotto controllo. Non chiuderemo il Paese. Terremo la situazione sotto controllo", ha riferito Trump.

A dispetto degli avvertimenti su una probabile seconda ondata di Covid-19 da parte dell'infettivologo Anthony La Fauci e dell'OMS, tutti i 50 stati facenti parti degli USA hanno annunciato la propria intenzione di rimuovere le misure restrittive imposte tra fine marzo ed inizio aprile.

Stando ai dati della Johns Hopkins University. sono almeno 1,5 milioni i casi conclamati di Covid-19 negli USA, a fronte di un bilancio delle vittime che ha superato quota 94.000.

Superati i 5 milioni di casi di contagio nel mondo

I casi accertati di infezioni da coronavirus nel mondo hanno raggiunto la cifra di 5 milioni secondo i dati della Johns Hopkins University, mentre il bilancio globale delle vittime di Covid-19 ammonta a oltre 329mila persone. Il numero di persone guarite è di oltre 1.900.000.

The Globalization of War - Global ResearchGlobal Research - Centre for Research on Globalization

The Globalization of War

The world is at the crossroads of the most serious crisis in modern history. The U.S. and its NATO allies have embarked on a military adventure, “a long war”, which threatens the future of humanity. This “war without borders” is intimately related to a worldwide process of economic restructuring, which has been conducive to the collapse of national economies and the impoverishment of large sectors of the World population.

The U.S. weapons producers are the recipients of U.S. Department of Defense multibillion dollar procurement contracts for advanced weapons systems. In turn, “The Battle for Oil” in the Middle East and Central Asia directly serves the interests of the Anglo-American oil giants. The U.S. and its allies are “Beating the Drums of War” at the height of a worldwide economic depression.

The military deployment of US-NATO forces coupled with “non-conventional warfare” –including covert intelligence operations, economic sanctions and the thrust of “regime change”– is occurring simultaneously in several regions of the world.

Central to an understanding of war, is the media campaign which grants it legitimacy in the eyes of public opinion. War has been provided with a humanitarian mandate under NATO’s “Responsibility to Protect” (R2P). The victims of U.S. led wars are presented as the perpetrators of war. Civilians in Ukraine, Syria and Iraq are responsible for their own deaths.

Meanwhile, the Commander in Chief of the largest military force on planet earth is presented as a global peace-maker. The granting of the Nobel “peace prize” in 2009 to President Barack Obama has become an integral part of the Pentagon’s propaganda machine. It provides a human face to the invaders, it demonizes those who oppose US military intervention.

The Nobel Committee says that President Obama has given the world “hope for a better future”. The prize is awarded for Obama’s “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. The Committee has attached special importance to Obama’s vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons.

…His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population. 1 (The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009: Barack H. Obama, Press Release, October 9, 2009) Eh vorrei vedere chi ha l'attitudine di fare sopprime le nazioni come gli accidentali

Realities are turned upside down. “War is Peace” said George Orwell. The media in chorus upholds war as a humanitarian endeavor. “Wars make us safer and richer” says the Washington Post.eh non sta funzionando a quanto pare

The Big Lie becomes The Truth. In turn, upholding The Truth –through careful documentation and investigative analysis of the horrors of U.S. led wars– is casually categorized as “conspiracy theory”.

While Washington wages a “Global War on Terrorism” (GWOT), those who forcefully oppose America’s wars of aggression are branded as terrorists. War becomes peace, a worthwhile “humanitarian undertaking”. Peaceful dissent becomes heresy.

With unfolding events in Ukraine and the Middle East, humanity is at a dangerous crossroads. At no time since the Cuban Missile Crisis has the World been closer to the unthinkable: a World War III scenario, a global military conflict involving the use of nuclear weapons.

The killing machine is deployed at a global level, within the framework of the unified combat command structure. It is routinely upheld by the institutions of government, the corporate media and the mandarins and intellectuals of The New World Order in Washington’s think tanks and strategic studies research institutes, as an unquestioned instrument of peace and global prosperity.

A culture of killing and violence has become imbedded in human consciousness.

War is broadly accepted as part of a societal process: The Homeland needs to be “defended” and protected.

“Legitimized violence” and extrajudicial killings directed against “terrorists” are upheld in western democracies, as necessary instruments of national security.

A “humanitarian war” is upheld by the so-called international community. It is not condemned as a criminal act. Its main architects are rewarded for their contribution to world peace.

Nuclear weapons are heralded by the US government as instruments of peace. The pre-emptive use of nuclear weapons is categorized as an act of “self-defense” which contributes to an illusive concept of “global security”. (see Chapter II).

The so-called “missile defense shield” or “Star Wars” initiative involving the first strike use of nuclear weapons has been developed globally in different regions of the world. The missile shield is largely directed against Russia, China, Iran and North Korea.

Meanwhile, in the context of unfolding events in Syria and Ukraine, there has been a breakdown of international diplomacy. Whereas a Neo-Nazi regime directly supported by the West has been installed in Kiev, the Russian Federation is now threatened by US-NATO with military action on its Western frontier. (See Chapter IX).

New Cold War?

While this renewed East-West confrontation has mistakenly been labelled a “New Cold War”, none of the safeguards of The Cold War era prevail. Russia has been excluded from the Group of Eight (G-8), which has reverted to the G-7 (Group of Seven Nations). Diplomacy has collapsed. There is no Cold War East-West dialogue between competing superpowers geared towards avoiding military confrontation. In turn, the United Nations Security Council has become a de facto mouthpiece of the U.S. State Department.

Moreover, nuclear weapons are no longer considered a “weapon of last resort” under The Cold War doctrine of “Mutual Assured Destruction” (MAD). Nuclear weapons are heralded by the Pentagon as “harmless to the surrounding civilian population because the explosion is underground”. In 2002, the U.S. Senate gave the green light for the use of nuclear weapons in the conventional war theater. Nukes are part of the “military toolbox” to be used alongside conventional weapons.

The “Communist threat” of The Cold War era has been replaced by the worldwide threat of “Islamic terrorism”. Whereas Russia and China have become capitalist “free market” economies, a first strike pre-emptive nuclear attack is nonetheless contemplated.

China and Russia are no longer considered to be “a threat to capitalism”. Quite the opposite. What is at stake is economic and financial rivalry between competing capitalist powers. The China-Russia alliance under the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) constitutes a “competing capitalist block” which undermines U.S. economic hegemony.

In Asia, the U.S. has contributed under its “Pivot to Asia” to encouraging its Asia-Pacific allies including Japan, Australia, South Korea, The Philippines and Vietnam to threaten and isolate China as part of a process of “military encirclement” of China, which gained impetus in the late 1990s.

Meanwhile, war propaganda has become increasingly pervasive. War is upheld as a peace-making operation.

When war becomes peace, the world is turned upside down. Conceptualization is no longer possible. An inquisitorial social system emerges. (See Chapter X). The consensus is to wage war. People can longer think for themselves. They accept the authority and wisdom of the established social order.

An understanding of fundamental social and political events is replaced by a World of sheer fantasy, where “evil folks” are lurking. The objective of the “Global War on Terrorism” narrative –which has been fully endorsed by the US administration– has been to galvanize public support for a worldwide campaign against heresy.

Global Warfare

The Pentagon’s global military design is one of world conquest. The military deployment of US-NATO forces is occurring in several regions of the world simultaneously.

The concept of the “Long War” has characterized US military doctrine since the end of World War II. Worldwide militarization is part of a global economic agenda.

Militarization at the global level is instrumented through the U.S. military’s Unified Command structure: the entire planet is divided up into geographic Combatant Commands under the control of the Pentagon. U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) Headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska plays a central role in coordinating military operations.

While surrounding and confronting Russia and China, new U.S. military bases have been set up with a view to establishing U.S. spheres of influence in every region of the World. There has been a reinforcement of the six geographic commands including the creation in 2008 of United States Africa Command (AFRICOM).

As heralded by the Pentagon, AFRICOM becomes a “full-spectrum combatant command” responsible for what are described as “defense” and U.S. “national security” operations “through focused, sustained engagement with partners in support of our shared security objectives”. AFRICOM’s area of jurisdiction extends to the entire “African continent, its island nations, and surrounding waters”. 2 US Africa Command, “What We Do”,

This US militarization of Africa supports the concurrent economic conquest of the continent, the pillage of its natural resources, the acquisition of its extensive oil and gas reserves, etc.

AFRICOM is an instrument of a U.S. led neocolonial project in alliance with the United Kingdom which consists in expanding the Anglo-American sphere of influence specifically in Central Africa, Francophone West Africa and North Africa largely at the expense of France.

While the US has military bases and/or facilities in more than 150 countries, with 160,000 active-duty personnel, the construction of new military bases is envisaged in Latin America including Colombia on the immediate border of Venezuela.

Military aid to Israel has increased. The Obama presidency has expressed its unbending support for Israel and the Israeli military, which is slated to play a key role in US-NATO led wars in the Middle East. The unspoken agenda is outright elimination of Palestine and the instatement of “Greater Israel”.

Michel Chossudovsky: The Globalization of War

come si evince da quello che J. STOLTENBERG afferma sullo dispiegamento di forze statunitensi in merito alla questione Defender Europe 2020 è che, sia gli Usa che l'UE hanno bisogno di più cooperazione per fronteggiare in primo luogo:

1° la questione sul terrorismo islamico che mette preoccupazione in tutto il continente europeo e non e, che quindi bisogna indebolirlo fino alla sua estinzione;

2° dialogo con la Russia, sulle armi convenzionali, sul nucleare che sul terrorismo;

3° la questione sulla tecnologia proveniente dalla Cina.

Stoltenberg dice ripetutamente che il patto transatlantico è un bene e che la UE e gli Usa insieme alla Nato devono cooperare ancora di più se si vuole fronteggiare le questioni dette poco sopra. E si congratula con gli Stati europei per l'aumento economico in termini di difesa.

Non dimentichiamoci l'art.5 del patto transatlantico che afferma : che un "attacco armato" contro uno o piu' alleati della Nato si considera come un attacco contro ogni componente della Nato e quindi ognuno di essi puo', secondo il diritto all'autodifesa sancito dall'articolo 51 della carta dell'Onu, decidere le azioni che ritiene necessarie a "ristabilire e mantenere la sicurezza", compreso "l'uso delle forze armate".

Si capisce bene qual'è il fine ultimo, e del perché gli usa insieme alla nato vogliono più cooperazione.

Ipocrisia allo stato avanzato.

Il defender europe 2020 ha tutto l'obiettivo di mettere sotto scacco l'unione europea e farla dipendere ancora di più dalla Nato e dall'esercito americano.

i guerrafondai americani hanno bisogno di dominare il mondo con le guerre per campare e non trovarsi con le pezze nel cul.o. E' la loro natura!

Fanno di tutto per impedire la nascita del continente euroasiatico, intervenendo continuamente in medio-oriente destabilizzandolo.
Finanziano, traminete qatar e emeriti arabi uniti, sempre di più i terroristi islamici distruggendo i progetti dei gasdotti per via sia della destabilizzazione che delle sanzioni inflitte alla russia che alla cina.

Nell’Europa del virus i bombardieri Usa da attacco nucleare

A causa del Coronavirus American Airlines e altre compagnie aeree statunitensi hanno cancellato molti voli per l’Europa. C’è però una «compagnia» Usa che, viceversa, li ha aumentati: la US Air Force. In questi giorni essa ha «dispiegato in Europa una task force di bombardieri stealth B-2 Spirit».

Lo annuncia da Stoccarda lo US European Command, il Comando Europeo degli Stati Uniti. Esso è agli ordini di generale, attualmente Tod D. Wolters della US Air Force, che allo stesso tempo è a capo delle forze Nato quale Comandante Supremo Alleato in Europa. Lo US European Command precisa che la task force, composta da un numero imprecisato di bombardieri provenienti dalla base Whiteman in Missouri, «è arrivata il 9 marzo a Lajes Field nelle Azzorre, in Portogallo».

Il bombardiere strategico B-2 Spirit, l’aereo più caro del mondo il cui costo supera i 2 miliardi di dollari, è il più avanzato aereo Usa da attacco nucleare. Ciascun velivolo può trasportare 16 bombe termonucleari B-61 o B-83, con una potenza massima complessiva equivalente a oltre 1.200 bombe di Hiroshima. Per effetto della sua conformazione, del suo rivestimento e delle sue contromisure elettroniche, il B-2 Spirit è difficilmente rilevabile dai radar (per questo è detto «aereo invisibile»).

Anche se è già stato usato in guerra, ad esempio contro la Libia nel 2011, con bombe non-nucleari di grande potenza a guida satellitare (ne può trasportare 80), esso è progettato per penetrare attraverso le difese nemiche ed effettuare un attacco nucleare di sorpresa.

Questi bombardieri, precisa lo US European Command, «opereranno da varie installazioni militari nell’area di responsabilità del Comando Europeo degli Stati Uniti». Tale area comprende l’intera regione europea e tutta la Russia (inclusa la parte asiatica). Ciò significa che i più avanzati bombardieri Usa da attacco nucleare opereranno, da basi in Europa, a ridosso della Russia.

Capovolgendo lo scenario, è come se i più avanzati bombardieri russi da attacco nucleare operassero da basi a Cuba a ridosso degli Stati uniti.ESEMPIO FANTASTICO. SE FOSSE STATO IL CONTRARIO CHE COSA AVREBBERO FATTO GLI USA? È evidente lo scopo perseguito da Washington: accrescere la tensione con la Russia usando l’Europa quale prima linea del confronto.

Ciò permette a Washington di rafforzare la sua leadership sugli alleati europei e di orientare la politica estera e militare dell’Unione europea, nella quale 22 dei 27 membri appartengono alla Nato sotto comando Usa.

Tale strategia è facilitata dalla crisi provocata dal Coronavirus. Oggi più che mai, in una Europa in gran parte paralizzata dal virus, gli Usa possono fare ciò che vogliono.

Lo conferma il fatto che essi vi trasferiscono i loro più avanzati bombardieri da attacco nucleare con il consenso di tutti i governi e i parlamenti europei e della stessa Unione europea, con il complice silenzio di tutti i grandi media europei.

Lo stesso silenzio calato sulla Defender Europe 20, il più grande spiegamento di forze Usa in Europa dalla fine della Guerra Fredda, di cui i media hanno parlato solo quando lo US European Command ha comunicato che, a causa del Coronavirus, ridurrà i soldati Usa partecipanti all’esercitazione da 30.000 a un numero imprecisato, mantenendo comunque «i nostri obiettivi di più alta priorità».

Nel quadro di una vera e propria psy-op (operazione psicologica militare) vari organi di «informazione», anche in Italia, si sono subito scagliati contro «le bufale sull’esercitazione Defender Europe» (La Repubblica, 13 marzo) e, attraverso i social, si è diffusa la voce che l’esercitazione è stata praticamente cancellata.

Notizia tranquillizzante, rafforzata dall’assicurazione, data dallo US European Command, che «nostra principale preoccupazione è proteggere la salute delle nostre forze e quella dei nostri alleati».CERTO! SEMPRE DEI GRANDI CUORI HANNO QUESTI AMERIKIONI MASSONICI.

Appunto sostituendo in Europa un numero imprecisato di soldati Usa con un numero imprecisato di bombardieri Usa da attacco nucleare, ciascuno con una potenza distruttiva pari a oltre 1.200 bombe di Hiroshima.

"My Job Is To Make Syria A Quagmire For The Russians": CIA Doctrine Made Official Policy | Zero Hedge

Like with the disastrous Iraq quagmire years before the US war machine came to Syria under Obama, Washington's rationale and justification for occupying the Syrian Arab Republic has shifted and changed drastically multiple times over.

When ultimately what started as US covert regime change efforts targeting Assad failed (based ostensibly in "protecting civilians"), the official mission then conveniently switched to 'defeating terrorism' — though of course this meant turning on the very jihadists the US armed and trained in the first place. Then the Kurds became the proxy flavor of the month, which also happened to have control of all the major oil and gas fields in the country's east ("secure the oil!" - Trump has repeatedly echoed of late).

When the Islamic State collapsed and became just another underground insurgency like its al Qaeda cousin, the ever-hawkish national security state establishment argued that Trump must not pull troops out because of 'Iranian expansion'.

But now that the myth that somehow Assad and the Syrians just want to hand their sovereign country over to their allies the Iranians has also largely fallen away (remember that Baathist Syria is a secular Arab and multi-confessional state, while Iran is a hardline Shia Islamic theocracy), a new official - and it might be added, provocative - US administration rationale has been concocted.

Washington now says it's all about defeating the Russians. While it's not the first time this has been thrown around in policy circles (recall that a year after Russia's 2015 entry into Syria at Assad's invitation, former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morell admitted in a TV interview he views that the US should be in the business of "killing Russians and Iranians covertly").

And now the top US special envoy to region, James Jeffrey, has this to say on US troops in Syria:

“My job is to make it a quagmire for the Russians.”

Ironically, Jeffrey's official title has been Special Envoy for the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIL, but apparently the mission is now to essentially "give the Russians hell".

His comments were made Tuesday during a video conference hosted by the neocon Hudson Institute:

Asked why the American public should tolerate US involvement in Syria, Special Envoy James Jeffrey points out the small US footprint in the fight against ISIS. "This isn't Afghanistan. This isn't Vietnam. This isn't a quagmire. My job is to make it a quagmire for the Russians."

He also emphasized that the Syrian state would continue to be squeezed into submission as part of long-term US efforts (going back to at least 2011) to legitimize a Syria government in exile of sorts. This after the Trump administration recently piled new sanctions on Damascus.

As University of Oklahoma professor and expert on the region Joshua Landis summarized of Jeffrey's remarks: "He pledged that the United States will continue to deny Syria - international funding, reconstruction, oil, banking, agriculture & recognition of government."

But no doubt both Putin and Assad have understood Washington's real proxy war interests all along, which is why last year Russia delivered it's lethal S-300 into the hands of Assad (and amid constant Israeli attacks).

As for oil, currently Damascus is well supplied by the Iranians, eager to dump their stock in fuel-starved Syria amid the global glut. Trump has previously voiced that part of US troops "securing the oil fields" is to keep them out of the hands of Russia and Iran.
