Signs of a dying empire that becomes dangerous

Ridiculous accusations and terror

globinfo freexchange

More evidence that the US imperialistic empire declines, after the ridiculous claims by US officials that the Syrian government buys oil from the Daesh terrorists. In fact, this is an adoption of Erdogan's claims that Assad is buying oil from the Islamic State. The "empire" not only fails to impose discipline on one of its allies, but, furthermore, adopts its ridiculous claims. The US behaves more like a nervous medium power rather than a superpower.

From PressTV:

The US accusation against the Syrian government that it buys oil from the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group is “mindboggling” that shows the corrupt American empire is in its death throes, a writer and political analyst in Boston says.

These false statements by US officials about Syria shows how bankrupt and unbelievable the US government has become, Daniel Patrick Welch told Press TV on Friday.

The United States has accused the Syrian government of buying oil from Daesh, following reports that Turkey is engaged in oil trade with the terrorist group.

Speaking at Chatham House in London on Thursday, senior US Treasury official Adam Szubin said that Daesh is earning some $40 million a month from oil trade, Reuters reported.

Szubin, the acting undersecretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence with the Treasury, said "ISIL is selling a great deal of oil” to the Assad government, without citing any evidence to support his claims.

Welch added characteristically that “I think what is interesting is that the game really is up. This is like a dying empire that is flailing, and is saying and doing literally anything, anything they can to keep the game going. The trouble is it's still the biggest military in the world. It's very dangerous; it's like a cornered, rabid dog.

Indeed, as we wrote in previous article: “What is new, and probably shows that the US empire declines, is that the latest round of imperialist intervention both in Latin America and Middle East, is a result of a nervous reaction by the empire against the geopolitical and economic expansion of its major opponents in the global arena. While in the past the global spheres of influence were more or less unofficially determined by all major powers, today's fierce antagonism for global dominance leaves no room for 'silent agreements'. But the declining empire is more dangerous than ever, and will use all means to retain its dominance.

But terror has become also the key tool by the "empire" to prevail against its opponents in the global arena. False flags, armies of mercenaries and proxy wars show a saturated and tired from the dead-end wars superpower that tries hardly to maintain its dominance.

As the American scholar and political analyst Dennis Etler, told at PressTV:

It can legitimately be asked, ‘who benefits from these attacks and the hysteria they generate?’ The clear answer is those in the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia, the other [Persian] Gulf States and Turkey who want to see the defeat and destruction of anti-imperialist nations, be they secularly or religiously motivated, they are the chief beneficiaries of the chaos that has engulfed the Middle East and other regions of the world.

The US wants to maintain its position of global hegemony and counter the rise of a multi-polar world led by Russia and China. One way of doing this is to fan the flames of war and instability on their borders, hoping that the destabilizing effects will spill over and threaten them at home,

[...]

Turkey under the leadership of the Pan-Turkic Erdogan wants to use the ‘War on Terrorism’ to expand its influence into Turkic lands in Central Asia, including China's Xinjiang. Saudi Arabia and the [Persian] Gulf states wish to use their Salafist clients in order to extend their influence throughout the Middle Eat in contention with Iran and its allies.

[...]

It thus matters little as to whether the terrorists are willing pawns of the imperialists, their dupes or autonomous actors with their own agenda. It doesn't make one whit of difference as to whether the terrorist attacks on civilians are ‘false flag operations,’ ‘set-up jobs,’ or simply attacks motivated by a malignant ideology. In any case the attacks serve the interests of the cabal of imperialists commanded by the US which includes a motley assortment of Zionists, Salafists, and Panturkists. Homeland terrorist attacks play into the hands of those who want to continue to wage war against those who are the primary victims of the terrorists that the US and its allies train, fund and supply directly and indirectly. It is the perfect example of a thief yelling 'Catch the thief,’” the scholar concluded.

But we should not forget the elites behind the scenes who pull the strings of the political puppets. It's all about power and money. And the best proof is that even the leaderships in the most "religiously" fanatic regimes are doing business for profit upon the Middle East chaos. Many related accusations have come to surface lately about the involvement of the Erdogan family, while we know that the regime in Saudi Arabia enjoys the super-profits form oil, when people are suffering from this brutal regime.

The "empire" is only the tool through which the elites try to maintain a system which secures their global dominance in every level and field. When the "empire" shows signs of degradation, it means that this system suffers from high instability, which makes it more dangerous than ever.

Operation Mindfuck: The origins of the Illuminati conspiracy fraud and how it became popular in our times

From the new documentary Can 't Get You Out of My Head by Adam Curtis   globinfo freexchange   The first settlers had come from Europe to America to flee from the corruption of power in the Old World. But although they had got away from the old power, they hadn't got away from their suspicious minds, and alone, out in the vast wilderness of the new America, that led them to imagining dark, hidden conspiracies in their own government, far away in Washington.    One of the first of these, in the early 19th century, said that a secret group from Europe, called the Bavarian Illuminati, were running a giant conspiracy in America to destroy the new democracy. In reality, the Illuminati had been a utopian movement who wanted to replace religion with reason. But instead, they now became the first of a series of frightening suspicions that fed off the isolation of the settlers in the New World.    One night (in 1958, somewhere in the vicinity of Whittier, Califo...

US Warships Under Fire: Iran Hits Back & Blasts UAE

MintPress News  "PROJECT FREEDOM." Trump calls it humanitarian aid. We call it what he already admitted it is: piracy. On Friday, Trump boasted that US forces seizing Iranian ships and oil were "sort of like pirates, but we are not playing games."  By Sunday, he had rebranded the blockade as "Project Freedom"—a military escort operation to guide ships through the Strait of Hormuz. Today, that operation went live: 15,000 US troops, guided-missile destroyers, and over 100 aircraft are enforcing American "freedom" at gunpoint. Let's be clear: Washington didn't enter the Strait to defend commerce. It entered to monopolize commerce—to maintain imperial control over the world's oil arteries and strangle Iran's economy.  Iran knows this. That's why closing the Strait and establishing its own transit protocols remains its strongest card in the fight for self-determination. When Trump confessed to piracy, he wasn't joking. He was c...

“Russia & China Preparing For War With The US!”

The Jimmy Dore Show   Colonel Douglas Macgregor explains that as a result of recent military conflicts, Russia, China, and Iran have become allies, and that Beijing and Moscow have concluded that "if we let Iran fail, we're next on the menu" from what he describes as a "rogue state led by a rogue personality," meaning they will intervene to prevent Iran's collapse if the US threatens it. He tells Jimmy Dore that Putin called Trump for an hour and a half to make it clear that a military campaign in Iran would not succeed and would make the situation much worse, offering to store Iran's enriched uranium as a diplomatic gesture. Macgregor warns that if the US restarts the war, China could send 40 or 50 surface combatants and submarines to the Indian Ocean, and Russia could fly MiG-31s into Iranian airspace — not to provoke a direct confrontation but to "make a point." He concludes that the British Empire overreached and overextended with World War...

How Western societies lost their faith in Vision

Why people don't rise up massively today? Why there are no real revolutions? How we tolerate all things that have been imposed to us? These questions come up in people's minds more and more often today in Greece and abroad, due to the economic crisis. Some theories are circulated as an answer, among these, explanations which include, for example, the psychosynthesis of modern Greeks, but the truth is that there is something more fundamental behind this passive behaviour and concerns not only Greece, but the entire Western world. by system failure Prior to the beginning of the 20th century, Friedrich Nietzsche declares God's death and Western world will put all its hopes in science. Laplace's Determinism leads to the almighty man, who through science, can find all the answers for the world. Technology, which naturally comes from scientific discoveries, promises prosperity and a better life for the majority. Science becomes the central "pylon...

Iranian Women Resist Invasion, Hospitals Targeted & Petrodollar Collapse

MintPress News   MintPress News founder Mnar Adley, this essential interview with University of Tehran professor Dr. Setareh Sadeghi reveals the devastating reality of US-Israeli aggression against Iran that corporate media refuses to report. With over 307 medical facilities destroyed in one month, schools bombed, and universities targeted, Iran faces what officials describe as a genocidal campaign. Dr. Sadeghi exposes: • How BBC journalists calling for Iran to be "nuked" are tied to CIA-backed regime change networks • Why Iranian women are leading mass rallies in defense of their nation—not against it • The collapse of Western propaganda as independent Iranian creators go viral worldwide • How Iran's regulation of the Strait of Hormuz is accelerating the petrodollar's decline • UAE's covert complicity in war crimes while positioning itself as a neutral party • Why Russia and China are aligning with Iran against unipolar imperial domination As Trump threatens to ...

Stephen Hawking confirms: The problem is Capitalism, not robots!

globinfo freexchange According to world famous physicist Stephen Hawking, the rising use of automated machines may mean the end of human rights – not just jobs. But he’s not talking about robots with artificial intelligence taking over the world, he’s talking about the current capitalist political system and its major players. On Reddit, Hawking said that the economic gap between the rich and the poor will continue to grow as more jobs are automated by machines, and the owners of said machines hoard them to create more wealth for themselves. The insatiable thirst for capitalist accumulation bestowed upon humans by years of lies and terrible economic policy has affected technology in such a way that one of its major goals has become to replace human jobs. If we do not take this warning seriously, we may face unfathomable corporate domination. If we let the same people who buy and sell our political system and resources maintain control of automated technology, the...
