The Reason The Elite Hate Trump So Much: He Is Opposed To The One World Agenda Of The Globalists
Summarised from the work of Joachim Hagopian / Global Research and Michael Snyder / The End of The American Dream blog
We have all wondered why the elite hate Donald Trump so much. We see it incessantly every day and every night. There have certainly been many politicians throughout the years that have been disliked, but with Trump there is a hatred that is so intense that it almost seems tangible at times. During the campaign, they went to extraordinary lengths to destroy him, but it didn’t work. And now that he is President, the attacks against him have been absolutely relentless. So why is there so much animosity toward Trump? Is it just because he is not a member of their club?
The truth, of course, is that it runs much deeper than that. Ultimately, the elite hate Trump because he is opposed to their demonic one world agenda. Many among the elite are referred to as “globalists” because their eventual goal is to unite the whole world under a single planetary system. These globalists truly believe that they know better than all the rest of us, and they want to impose their way of doing things on every man, woman and child on the entire planet.
So they get angry when Donald Trump talks of “building a wall” or establishing a travel ban from certain countries because they eventually want a world without any borders at all.
And they get really angry when Donald Trump says that he wants to pull the United States out of international trade deals, because the elite were using those international trade deals to slowly integrate all nations into a single one world economy.
And they get really really angry when Donald Trump criticizes Islam, because Islam is going to be a key component of their plan to establish the NWO.
For quite a while the globalists were on a roll, but recently they have experienced some tremendous setbacks. Britain’s vote to leave the EU and the election of Donald Trump were not supposed to happen, and this has left many globalists searching for answers.
At one time you would have been considered a “conspiracy theorist” if you spoke of “globalists”, but at this point the elite are not even trying to put up a facade any longer.
And of course Donald Trump made opposition to globalism one of the central themes of his campaign, and it really struck a chord all across America. As Dr. Jim Garlow noted in an article that went viral just before the election, Trump’s opposition to globalism was one of the key things that set him apart from Hillary Clinton.
The reason why the threat of globalism is so serious is because if a single global system is ever established there will be no escape from it.
Just think about it – where could you go to escape a government that literally rules the entire world?
These globalists are completely convinced that if they could just get control of everyone and everything that they could establish some sort of environmentally-friendly socialist utopia where war and poverty are eradicated. But in order to do that, they would need to be in a position to micro-manage the lives of every single person on the planet.
In their minds it would not be tyranny, but for those of us that love freedom that is precisely what it would be.
The global elite have already had a tremendous amount of success in promoting values, systems and laws that are “anti-Christian” (in the fundamental moral sense of the term) around the globe.
Forget all the labels – Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Liberal, Left, Right. In 21st century politics, they’re all totally non-relevant, meaningless sleight of hand, divide and rule weapons used by a handful of controlling agents who’ve owned this planet – with Europe’s Rothschilds and America’s Rockefellers most readily coming to mind.
These ideological tags and labels have been an extremely effective means of neutralizing any and all potential political threats from ever uniting to challenge or oppose the status quo power monopoly. The opposing factions have identical objectives. During the Great Depression nearly a century ago the globalist bankster J.P. Morgan boasted:
- When through a process of law the common people have lost their homes, they will be more tractable and more easily governed by the strong arm of the law applied by the central power of leading financiers. People without homes will not quarrel with their leaders. This is well known among our principle men now engaged in forming an imperialism of [crony] capitalism to govern the world. By dividing the people we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance to us.
Like the Democrats and Republicans forever squabbling to get nothing done in Congress that barely passes as legislation – when does this actually benefit the American people and not the special interests they’re beholden to? Or when are the American people actually in a position to decide on the really important matters that affect their lives?
Since the US Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision six years ago, every powerful lobby group like AIPAC or every billionaire globalist can legally bribe politicians with unlimited campaign donations to vote according to their personal interests rather than the interests of the voting constituents.
The Princeton-Northwestern study a couple of years ago made it official, confirming that the United States federal government operates as an oligarchy, no longer the democratic republic historically taught in Civics 101.
The last US president that seriously threatened the ruling elite’s status quo was John F. Kennedy and it is a widely-held belief that Washington insiders within the shadowy government elite assassinated him and his brother – and ever since have been firmly in control of the United States.
But the turning point for the elite actually arrived exactly a half century earlier in 1913 with the passing of the Federal Reserve Act, followed eight years later by the creation of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the raw power driving the aggressive US foreign policy.
Virtually every president over the last century has either been a blue blood Anglo-elitist CFR man, a Yale Skull and Bones-er or high degree Freemason, and if the president wasn’t any of the above, you can bet the vast majority of his key cabinet posts were filled with these elitist members especially heading the Defense, the Treasury and State Departments.
The globalists control through this the mainstream media, Hollywood, the education system and they control most of the American politicians.
Donald Trump single-handedly threatens to create such havoc within the existing global order – that those at the top of the power pyramid will literally stop at nothing to remove him from wrecking their long plotted prize of a one world government.
Results from a revealing poll released in early 2016 found that for the second year in a row, Americans view their own federal government as their biggest problem, not the flatlined economy, unemployment, immigration or terrorism. Four out of five Americans feels “angry or frustrated” toward their government that increasingly views its own citizens as potential terrorists and extremist threats in its lockdown of their Constitutional freedoms.
Two decades ago most US citizens saw the Feds as a friend, not an enemy. But as we move deeper into the twenty-first century, those numbers have largely reversed, especially amongst Independents and Republicans. Over 76% of Americans accurately believe that Washington’s run by a few big special interests strictly out for themselves rather than for the benefit of all people.
In other words, Abraham Lincoln’s “of the people, by the people, for the people” long embedded as a defining principle of US democracy, did in fact “perish from the Earth” right after the inside job of 9/11.
Trump’s populist policies and clear promise of making America great again has brought more people to register and vote in the state primaries than any other candidate in modern times.
His appeal comes from tapping into the deepening divide between citizens and their oppressive, dishonest and secretive government. Working class white males are his prototypical supporters, angry over feeling pushed around and disenfranchised by a government that doesn’t give a s~~~ about them.
Trump calling the broken political system as beholden to special interests – mirrors the anger of a growing number of Americans who believe Obama and Clinton have sold America out to foreign interests and the ruling elite.
Trump has declared himself a nationalist vehemently opposed to all the globalist trade agreements like NAFTA and the latest TPP and TTIP that are the final nail in the coffin to America’s national sovereignty. He played ‘the countless American jobs taken away card’ and has promised to undo them all. How accurate this is may be questionable – but no less a truth to those that have believed it to be.
For the moment only – the momentum toward a one world system has been temporarily halted. The very-needed change away from this rests on the whims of a billionaire who has been elected to redeem the faith of a disillusioned nation – and who may be the only chance America has against a spiral into anarchy.
Even now – especially now – the globalists will not stop trying. Just because Trump won the election does not mean that they are going to roll over and die. They have come too far and done too much to turn back.
Is it any wonder now that the Soros-sponsored left has almost daily staged violent protests and legal challanges?
Is it a shock then that MSM false news ratchets up the tension? Not one MSM media outlet is supporting him.
Is it any surprise the courts are at this point solidly against Trump on any issue? Even his own AG tried to railroad him in not defending his legal position.
Is it unexpected that the CIA is now spying on its ex-boss just because he works for the President?
Expect the elites to use all resources at their disposal – legal or otherwise – to try to destroy Trump, even if that means creating a tremendous amount of chaos. This has always been their true strength – that in any crisis all it takes for them to win is for others to do nothing.
Indeed leaders from a host of colluding nations around the world have also expressed their upset toward the President for what they regard as his racist views on immigration and trade – among them Canada, Ireland, Britain, Germany, France, Turkey, Israel and Saudi Arabia. Of course these Trump critics are members of the same governments that per their globalists’ “multiculturalism” agenda are welcoming over a million refugees that are now in the process of destroying Europe as we know it.
Germany and France have for decades been the EU henchmen for the globalists. Their treatment of other less fortunate members of the Union and their obedience to the Rothschild empire and NATO is well known. Britain, Canada and Ireland – well – their parliaments are filled up with leftists and more Islamic nuts every day so they can’t be trusted either.
Israel (with no international credibility) and Saudi Arabia (as the very home of Wahhabi terrorism) are nations refusing to take in any refugees – and the biggest supporters for both terrorism and the wars that created a migration crises in the Middle East. Turkey provides terrorists with safe havens and training grounds. So in view of the harm that their policies have caused, none of them should have anything to say about Trump.
Even the globalist Pope Francis who is pushing the climate change and global governance agenda slammed Trump – insinuating he was “not Christian” for Trump’s tough talk on immigration and wall building. Pope Francis supports the globalist agenda of mass migration regardless of consequences in Europe and the wedging of a racial-religious divide that betrays his Christian faith.
Trump has responded it’s disgraceful a ‘religious leader’ would make such a comment, quickly pointing out the hypocrisy that the Vatican City has a wall around it built to keep the Muslims out. A day later the Vatican spokesman became the pope’s apologist – ‘clarifying’ that the pope was not personally attacking Trump but was simply reacting to what he’d been told. Trump tweeted that while Francis was visiting Mexico he’d been unduly influenced by Trump-bashing for his “let’s build a wall” tit for tat. Religion is merely another tool for the globalists when it becomes available (and so it seems is the Pope).
The US government-sponsored cronies are also out in force. Let there be no doubt who Washington really works for.
As a example – NSA director Michael Hayden (who just happened to let 9/11 occur under his watch and whom many view as a 9/11 collaborator) also signed the ‘attack Trump’ letter and is now raking in big profits and peddling (of all things) a security consultant business. Hayden told the press that the CIA director could ignore Trump’s torture statement because “it’s against the law.”
Back when General Hayden was CIA director (2006-2009) under the Bush regime, it was against the law then too. Hayden and his CIA torturers walked free (released by whistleblower John Kiriakou) but the practice continued after Obama’s signing of an executive order making it unlawful.
Kiriakou did two-and-a-half years in a federal prison. These anti-Trump ‘experts’ have yet to be held accountable for their well-known criminal actions, much less possessing a smidgen of credibility.
But here’s Donald’s response to General Hayden’s swipe:
- I’ll tell you how good our military is doing under Michael Hayden and people such as this. We’ve been fighting wars in the Middle East for 15 years, 18 years… for four or five trillion dollars, we don’t know what we’re doing, we don’t know who we’re fighting, we’re arming people that we want on our side, we don’t know who they are. When they take over a country they’re worse than people they depose. Give me a break!
There are numerous examples – but you get the idea.
If you study the globalists, you will quickly discover that one of their favorite tactics is to create chaos in the hope they can take advantage of the ensuing power vacuum So in the months ahead it is quite likely that we may see quite a bit of chaos as the globalists attempt to get their program back on track.
But if we understand what they are doing, we will be able to see through their games. So let’s keep shining a light on these globalists, because they always prefer to operate in the darkness.

I have noticed many MGTOW think that they’ve ‘won’ a battle by trump winning. That trump will mark the beginning of a change in society that will help men. But I learnt from my experiences in the market, interactions with women, veteran MGTOWs and strategists like Machiavelli that you are the most vulnerable when you are confident. Some MGTOW that are into politics seem to be one blowjob away from joining the plantation; or rather one law change away. If the laws put in by feminists are changed then we can all go back to being happy families; so you should support Trump! This line of thinking displays a lack of understanding of MGTOW.
Even if the family court is fixed, feminist laws are reversed, SJWs are removed from education, male-female relationships will still be the same. Female sovereignty is directly at odds with male sovereignty; traditional gender roles are antithetical to male freedom. Women have NOTHING to offer me except their vagina, I don’t need a woman to cook for me, to clean for me and I don’t want kids so even that part of woman is useless to me. The juice is not worth the squeeze.
More importantly; when it comes to following my dreams and aspirations; women will ALWAYS try to shift my time and effort away from my passion towards them, my final relationship ended because she didn’t like that I spent so much time in my work. Trump might change the harassment laws so women aren’t as c~~~ish in the office; but that doesn’t change the fact that you are a wage slave to a corporation when working in the office. Trump might make feminist women change their tune; but this doesn’t change the fact that women view you as an ATM or walking dildo. If all it takes is a few law changes and women being nicer for you to make amends then you are not a MGTOW you are an opportunist.
MGTOW is about male liberation; I am not pro-trump or anti-trump; I am pro-ME. While many MGTOW are creaming their pants over travel-bans and firing of US attorney generals I am still waiting for anything concrete that will contribute towards male liberation. I understand the enthusiasm some have on here for Trump, but I have come to understand that politics does very little to solve your problems, the only thing that will solve your problems is YOU.
If Trump contributes towards male liberations then I will be pleasantly surprised and happy, but for now I will remain on guard and keep doing my thing.
Topic: My uncle Arthur: A tribute
In the build up to International MGTOW day, I thought I would share a heart-warming tale about my old uncle Arthur.
Arthur was a simple man. Like many men of his generation, he went straight from school to work in the foundry. He met Joan at a local dance and after a brief courtship they married. In the typical style of the day (this was the UK just after WWII) they quickly settled down to family life. Soon, it was observed that whenever callers came round, Arthur would be seated in front of his brand new black and white TV while Joan raced around the house, cleaning, cooking and generally working very hard while Arthur put his feet up and watched the TV.
Relatives and friends alike agreed that Joan did the all work and that Arthur was very lucky to have her. Of course they forgot about his job in the foundry and what he did in WWII, the money he made every day, the burns on his arms, and the risks involved in handling liquid steel. Despite having a weak heart, Joan kept busy well into her sixties, by which time of course, feminism was in full spate and everyone began to bitch to Arthur about his apparent idleness.
No one bitched to Joan that she had started to receive a state pension 5 years earlier than Arthur because of her gender. No one complained that Joan wasn’t drafted in WWII but Arthur was sent to fight in Italy. Joan would scrub and cook all day and buy his food and wash his clothes, and Arthur continued – apparently – to do nothing around the house. Joan drove them everywhere. She reminded him of all the places he needed to go, arranging all his doctor’s, dentist’s and hairdressing appointments for him, diligently writing them all down because “he could never remember them”.
Arthur “wasn’t sociable”; Joan was the one who kept in contact with their children and who organised the family get-togethers. He “never invited” anyone to their house – Joan “had to make sure” they kept in touch with all their friends. Everyone could see the impact it was having on her health, the pressure of doing everything for him.
Then one day, sadly, it was too much. Joan’s weak heart finally gave out. At her funeral, everyone agreed that Arthur would not last more than a few weeks without her. He had no idea how to cook for himself. He couldn’t work the washing machine or the vacuum cleaner. He hadn’t cleaned the bathroom in his life.
How could this socially inept, insular man avoid retreating into himself without the woman who was the key to his entire social life? How could this selfish, lazy misogynist survive without the woman who was his servant and his mentor, who remembered all the things he couldn’t, who did everything for him?
A strange thing happened.
Without Joan, Arthur thrived.
It took him a couple of weeks to learn how to work the washing machine. When the bathroom needed cleaning, he took a cloth and gave it a scrub. Cooking took a while longer and his repertoire was limited to a few standard dishes. But if he wanted anything different, he went to the local pub or splashed out in the local restaurant. He had a good pension (he’d worked his arse off all his life for it). Without the domineering Joan brushing aside his conversations and overriding his wishes, he saw more of his children when he wanted to see them, inviting his own choice of friends around regularly, and rekindling friendships that had lain dormant for years.
He suddenly revealed a talent for booking and remembering his own doctors, dentists and hairdresser’s appointments. Without Joan, he began to drive everywhere himself, even holidaying in Italy – in a much more relaxed time – to sample all the great works of art he didn’t have a chance to enjoy before.
And he began to dabble in the stock market. Just a little at first.
Without the domineering Joan dictating how his money should be spent, Arthur made steady profits. He sold high and bought low. He avoided Black Wednesday (largely by luck, he confessed), and caught the internet boom of the late nineties, although he got a little singed in the subsequent crash. His new persona – which was in fact, the old one that Joan had stamped down and controlled for so long – astonished his brothers and Joan’s family. He even organised a Gilbert and Sullivan group and put on a couple of productions. His social life blossomed.
Arthur outlived the woman who had been his “everything” by 17 years. He died not a rich man, but very comfortably off. He never showed any desire at all to remarry, preferring instead to watch his cricket in peace, and nurse a pint in the local pub every Sunday afternoon. He told me he liked to watch the sun shine.
When his will was read, his children were surprised to find he wanted his ashes to be scattered in a local community garden rather than being buried next to Joan.
And that is where Arthur is now, fertilising the plants instead of taking up valuable real estate like his wife, who insisted – like everyone else – that he couldn’t live without her, and who, like everyone else, never realised that he could only begin to live when she was gone.

AnonymousTopic: Thanks Dad! [beer]
So I had a pretty nice vehicle that had no problems but was a little bit older model year. Some 24 yr old c~~~ rear ended me as I was turning into the driveway for work about a week before thanksgiving. the insurance company totaled it because the value wasn’t high enough vs. cost of repair. the dumb c~~~ was likely texting as her insurance company made no qualms about the incident. I’m a package delivery driver and from thanksgiving right up to xmas is 6 day weeks of f~~~ing hell. I got a nice rental for a couple weeks then had to rush to find another vehicle as work left me no time to search thoroughly enough to find one in as nice of shape as the c~~~ destroyed previous car.
I settled on a vehicle that’s in not too bad of shape. no rust, interior and exterior look good and all of the important working components are good. but it seems like a ton of little things keep cropping up which is super disappointing. the previous car had nothing wrong with it and overall was a nicer car with more luxury options and what not. i live in the great northeast US and the other day, the blower fan quit working which could almost sideline a vehicle with all of the snow and ice and what not. i knew it was either the blower motor or a fuse blew. it was a pretty simple operation, i had to remove a cover underneath the glove box to get to the motor, i tapped it and voila, it works. this is my solution for now until i buy a replacement.
so to bring it back around to my dad…he’s a master mechanic that’s worked on everything from grass trimmers to earth movers and k-loaders(cargo plane loading platform). “master” is no s~~~, he worked on the local military base and when G W Bush came for a visit, they made sure he was the one that checked over the stair truck that the president would walk down. it was him out of every one on an entire base with 4 battalions and what not.
he’s been there providing for me my whole life. i’m a pretty intelligent and high minded guy but am a working man through and through largely because i saw the honor of it through his example. i’m 30 yrs old now and my parents are still there to help when i occasionally get in tight spots (almost exclusively caused by impregnating two different c~~~s). but the point of this thread is to mention lessons and knowledge that he’s passed on to me as a man trying to grow and learn a boy into being another man.
i’m not a mechanic like him in the sense that i’m not an advanced troubleshooter, he would call me a “parts changer” which is someone who is handy enough to do most jobs but can’t diagnose difficult things. even still i have managed quite a bit and saved myself thousands of dollars working on my own s~~~. i’ve actually done some pretty advanced things like entire engine rebuilds and what not with his guidance but i figured i would mention a list of things i’ve managed all on my own thanks to him teaching me.
oil change
changing tires
brake jobs
replace master cylinder
wheel hub/bearing replacement
tune ups
shock/strut replacement
fuel level gauge replacement
tie rod bushing change
leaf spring change
valve cover gasket replacement
alternator replacement/serpentine belt change
starter replacement
coolant pump replacement/pump inline/outline replacement
coolant system/radiator flush
replace air lines for air/gas combo shocks
headlight/turn signal replacement
various sensor replacementsi don’t know, there’s a lot more that i can’t remember but I’ll describe a couple more examples in detail to close it out. One vehicle was throwing the check engine light on because of the EGR valve which for those who don’t know, mixes a certain amount of exhaust back in to the fuel mix to burn up more emissions. There was nothing physically wrong with the part.
I did a bit of research and figured it out. The problem was that the computer thought it was open when it wasn’t. 0 volts means closed, 5 volts means all the way open. But there can be a variance in voltage yet the computer can’t always make the adjustment. Using his diagnostic computer i figured out that there was a voltage reading that told the computer it was a touch open even though it was closed. the solution to reset the voltage range was to clear the malfunction code with the EGR valve sensor unplugged, plug it back in and start the car. fixed
the final example is a time he was helping me and finally realized how capable i am. not all of his lessons have been positive reinforcement but that’s ok. a large reason why i didn’t spend more time getting deeper into it was that when i was younger, he was impatient and always made the job about the job and not the lesson. if i was having a hard time doing something, he would just take over for the sake of finishing the job.
anyhow, we were replacing an oxygen sensor in a vehicle and had to use a torch to get it out due to rust/corrosion. when it was heated up, i tried to loosen it but gave too much pressure and turned the threads out along with the sensor. we went to tap and recut the threads but couldn’t get it in. he got really f~~~ing p~~~ed imagining having to pull a whole other exhaust line out of the parts vehicle he had out back. meanwhile i remained calm and continued to try to tap and recut the threads deep enough to get the new sensor in there and i did. once i announced my job well done, he said “good job”, which was a really big deal believe it or not.
so now i have the knowledge and work ethic to pass on to my son the same way he did to me. and along with that, i’m trying to remember to always be a little more patient and to make the lesson about the lesson and not the job. in a way my father has helped to teach me to be a better or more complete man than himself, which i know is what he always intended.
so…thanks Dad, i love you! and i thank you for my life.
This body holding me is a reminder of my own mortality. Embrace this moment. Remember, we are eternal and all this pain is an illusion.
One of the philosophies of MGTOW is to “starve the system by not feeding it”. Thus you are a ghost in the system.
Ghosting takes time and planning. If you are just starting out finding your independence going down the mgtow road, you might want to look up the term “Grey Man”. Its the art of blending in and not being noticeable. Women spend their entire lives SCREAMING for attention. Its the beast they need to feed every f~~~ing minute of the day. Affirmation that their are noticed and matter. Men do not generally speaking crave attention to themselves but often garner attention because of their accomplishments in life.
If you google “grey man” you can find some decent articles on how to blend into society without having to conform.
First thing to consider is to not use the expression “mgtow” in public. If you have to use any term say you are just a bachelor enjoying some quiet time. If hens in the office push for personal info I just change the subject. All in all women behave like children. Easily distracted by fluffing their ego a bit and you can change the conversation to their favorite topic, talking about themselves.
Second, don’t stand out in clothes or appearance. I could strip that last 10lbs of fat off by reducing calories but if you have spent your time training it makes you stand out which attracts attention. Wear earth-tones for clothing. Nothing remarkable but whatever you wear make sure it blends in with the people around you only toned down. If everyone wears a suit, wear one as well. I do recommend a change of clothes in your car or better yet in your workplace stored in a bag, in case you need to change your appearance.
Why? Well lets say you are in a city and anarchists are paroling the streets. Happens now-a-days. You want to pop out on the street in your suit? Good way to attract attention. Change into common clothes.Third, don’t brag about anything. Women especially make mental notes to use anything you say against you in the future. Its their skill. Its how they manipulate to win arguments or provoke people.
Finally, The gray man is the person who moves around the periphery of our awareness without creating any stimulus. This makes that person invisible for all practical purposes. Being invisible will greatly reduce the risk of falling prey to the two legged predators who will make life so “interesting” when this thin veneer of society peels away and reveals the pure ugly evil that lies underneath.
Once you are at the Grey Man stage you can concentrate on not feeding this corrupt gynocentric beast that western civilization has degenerated into.
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning; it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.
Trump’s Iranian Gambit – The Saker
Today I bring you an extract on Iran from one of my favourite political and military heavyweights bar none- The Saker. He can be reached at “http://thesaker.is/”.
Expert in:
Military analysis, intelligence issues, Russian geopolitics, traditional Orthodoxy (Christian)Bio:
“The Saker” is a pseudonym for a top level American military analyst who lives in Florida, the author of the leading blog covering the Ukraine crisis, The Saker gets an astounding 50,000 page views per day. His articles are some of the most popular on Russia Insider.Of the many blogs covering the subject, his has shot far ahead of the others, due to his sharp analysis and insight. Readers thought it so important that volunteers have begun putting out French, German, Serbian, and Russian language versions. There is even a New Zealand edition. These editions add another 20,000 views per day to his global reach.
I disagree on one point only in this article – and that is the basis of confrontation is in essence a Zionist domination theory. My view is more that of a Neocon geopolitical move to control oil and currency in the region, with Israel as a convenient excuse to achieve these ends. However that dos not impact on the excellent strategic and tactical aspects of the Iranian Gambit put forward here.
A Saker is a very large falcon, native to Europe and Asia.)
This article was written for the Unz Review: http://www.unz.com/tsaker/trump-presidency-first-snafus-already/
It is a rare privilege to be able to criticize a politician for actually fulfilling his campaign promises but Donald Trump is a unique President and this week he offered us exactly this opportunity.
There was the absolutely terrible press conference by General Flynn which you can see here
So not only did Flynn put Iran “on notice” like a high-school principal would do to a rowdy teenager, but FOX TV is already speaking about “lines in the sand”. Wait – were “lines in the sand” not one of the dumbest features of the Obama Presidency? And now, just one week in the White House, we see Trump doing exactly the same?
This also begs the question of whether a very intelligent man like Flynn seriously and sincerely believes that he can bully or otherwise scare Iran. If he does – then we are all in a lot of trouble.
There is also the troubling aspect of the language chosen. Instead of speaking about “international concern” or the will of the UN Security Council, Flynn decided to use the kind of language typical of a wannabe World Hegemon. Again, been there – done that. Do they really think that this kind of imperial hubris will work better for them than it did for the Neocons?
I sure hope that this week is not a harbinger of what the rest of the Trump Presidency will look like.
Still, It is not too late to change course and return to reality-based politics.
The big problem right now is Iran. Well, not Iran itself, of course, but the stupid anti-Iranian rhetoric of the Trump campaign before the elections. My biggest fear is that while Trump and the people around him have apparently come to the (correct) conclusion that they cannot bully Russia into submission they have decided that they could do that with Iran. If that is really their plan, then they are headed for a major disaster.
For one thing, Iran has been living with the threat of a AngloZionst attack since 38 years, including 23 years of Neocon power in the USA. To think that right now they will be suddenly really frightening and will meekly comply with Uncle Shmuel’s demands is very naïve. The Iranians have been preparing for a war against the US and Israel for almost a quarter of a century – they are fine ready, both militarily and psychologically. Oh sure, the US can most definitely strike at Iran with cruise missile and air-strikes, but at what cost and what would that exactly achieve?
In terms of achievement, it would have a beneficial psychotherapeutic effect on those Americans who feel insecure about their military size and who want to feel big and powerful again. It will also kills plenty of Iranians and destroy some unknown amount of Iranian targets, including possibility missile technology or nuclear technology related ones. But it will not change Iranian policies by even a tiny amount, nor will it prevent Iran from further pursuing nuclear or missile technologies.
But this has never been about nuclear or missile technology, of course. That is all nonsense, “informational prolefeed” so to speak.
In reality this was always about only one thing: Israel wanted to be THE regional superpower in the Middle-East and Iran was to be prevented from threatening this monopoly status by any means. In other words, if an Islamic country is mismanaged and run by incompetent fanatics, this is great.
But when an Islamic country is run by an extremely capable leadership which cannot be overthrown due to the fact that it has popular support, then this Islamic country becomes an absolutely unacceptable precedent. And Iran, with its advanced technologies, powerful military, strong economy and generally successful political and social model is an immense affront to the delusions of the Zionist regime.
Add to this that Iran dares to *openly* defy the United States and you immediately will see the real reasons for all the saber-rattling and constant threats. The problem for Trump is exactly the same as the problem for Obama, Dubya or Clinton: the US cannot win a war against Iran. Why?
Because a war has to have some political objective, a definition of what “victory” means. In the case of Iran, there is no possible victory. Even of the US launches 1000-2000 missile strikes against Iran, and all of them are successful, this will not be a “victory”.
Many years ago I wrote an article entitled “Iran’s Asymmetrical Response Options”. It is dated now, a lot as happened since 2007, but the fundamental conclusions are still valid: the USA cannot win and Iran has plenty of asymmetrical options ranging from riding out the attack to attacking CENTCOM targets all over the Middle-East. But the biggest change since 2007 has been the civil war in Iraq and Syria and Trump’s promises to eradicate Daesh. This is crucial.
There is simply no way, none at all, to eradicate Daesh without putting boots on the ground. I think that we can all agree that these boots won’t be American. They won’t be Russian either. Obama’s approach was to use a mix of Iraqi, Kurdish and Turkish boots, with the threat of Saudi and other Gulf State’s boots thrown in for good measure. We all know how that worked: it didn’t. And it won’t. So here is the ugly secret that everybody knows or, at least, ought to know: the only boots on the ground to defeat Daesh have been, still are and will be, Iranian boots.
That is a fact of life, sorry. The Turks are out, after the attempted coup against Erdogan and the subsequent purges the Turkish military is only a shadow of what it used to be. The Kurds have no desire whatsoever to be used as cannon fodder in a dangerous and difficult war against Daesh. The Saudis and the rest of them are a joke, barely capable of terrorizing civilians, but they will be instantly defeated by Daesh in the first skirmish. So unless the Canadians, the Brits, the Poles, the Lithuanians and, say, the Georgians want to lead the struggle against Daesh (just kidding!), the only country which can make Trump’s campaign promise happen is Iran (and Hezbollah, of course).
Furthermore, I submit that Iran is powerful enough to prevent *any* policy of being successful in the Middle-East unless Iran at least passively okays it. In a way, Iran’s position in the Middle-East is similar to the Russian position in the “near abroad” (the former Soviet Union): while Iran/Russia cannot impose anything against everybody, Iran/Russia can veto/prevent any policy or outcome it does not want.
The main consequence of this is that even if Iran decided to completely renounce any kind of retaliatory counter-attack against the US or Israel, Iran could *painfully* retaliate against such a strike by simply telling Trump “we will make darn sure that you fail everywhere, in Iraq, in Syria, in Pakistan, and Yemen and everywhere else in the Middle-East”. And that won’t be an empty threat: the Iranians absolutely can deliver on it.
A US attack on Iran is also going to send the US-Russian-China relationship into a tailspin. How much of a disaster this will be will depend on how bad the attack on Iran is, but while Russia will not militarily intervene in a US-Iranian conflict, Russia will not allow the US to get away with it either and the main political cost will be that an attack on Iran will further reinforce the Russian-Iranian-Chinese triangle.
Do I need to spell out here how an attack on Iran will be perceived in Beijing?
If it happens, the US attack on Iran will look very much like the 2006 Israel war on Hezbollah, and it will achieve the same results, only on a bigger scale. To put it simply – it will be a total disaster and it will mark the failure of the Trump presidency.
Right now Trump still has an immense political capital. It’s not like the world truly trusts him, it is way too early for that, but there is a lot of hope out there that Trump’s America will be a different one, a civilized one which will act as a responsible and rational international actor. Not like an Obama 2.0.
But listening to Flynn’s condescending and, worse, empty (not to mention wholly illegal) threats against Iran, I am left wondering whether the US can mend its ways and be meaningfully reformed or whether it will take a cataclysmic collapse (military or economic) to finally see the end of the wannabe World Hegemon.

PS: for whatever this is worth, the first statement by the US rep at the UNSC just reinforces my worst fears, see for yourself:
I’ve run some Chad (it pays to be a loser) tests before, but nothing even close to what I unleashed last night.
Bottom line: They want to f~~~ losers.
I was about 5 hours from my HQ last night, with plans to drive home in the morning so I figured I could pull it off for research purposes then bolt.
Went into a bar near the motel I stayed at. Slut rich environment as I walked in.
I was wearing a drop zone shirt with an image of a skydiver on it. It has a high clit magnet factor.
A slut started talking to me, said she wanted to go skydiving, I showed her a couple of my videos on my phone.
Then I said I had to leave. LOL. Because I had no more money for beer. I had already mentioned (lied) that I work during the week at a temp labor place and have been sleeping in my Jeep with my dog every night since I lost my apartment. LOL
In order to keep me there, she started buying me beers. Brought her slut squad over and seemed proud to introduce me as a ‘Skydiver!!’
I continued dropping two ton atom bombs on the situation, like I have a warrant out for missing a court date for an assault charge. Still owe my tattoo guy $400 for some more work he did last month (showed her a tat on my right shoulder that is five years old) LOL
Then when we were on the patio, she started making out with me. She was hot so I subjected myself to kissing the same mouth that multiple c~~~s had been in and to get final results from my Chad Test.
Which was confirmed when she said I could stay at her house.
I strategically extracted under the guise of needing to charge my phone in my Jeep.
