Bellicose Trump locked Sun Tzu out of the house — now what?

Instigating chaos requires no brain?

 

Geopolitical wisdom, and a Sun Tzu to guide it, are nowhere to be found on American soil.

 

With America's attack on Yemen and our ramped up warmongering regarding Iran — it is as if US leadership's Zionism-blinded idiots have settled on the merits of eventual self-destruction by blowing up the Middle East on expansionist Israel's behalf.

 

 

What is especially telling . . .

 

. . . is the geopolitical ignorance of the Americans in charge of fueling this coming war.

 

The Trump administration's arrogance and its abysmal ignorance of pertinent history, including notably recent events, is on display regarding both Ukraine and Iran.

 

 

Alistair Crooke gave Judge Andrew Napolitano a good look . . .

 

. . . at why these negative American qualities are likely to box Russia and Iran into geopolitical corners that will eventually make the world situation even more dangerous than it already is:

What I find particularly telling . . .

 

. . .  is the massive degree to which Americans believe their own propaganda.

 

Ambassador Crooke thinks that American leadership has bought into the idea that Iran will collapse, just as Syria has. And further that Iranian air defenses and Iran's ability to significantly 'missile' Israel, have both magically disappeared.

 

Crooke astutely points out that the United States noticed Israel's successful decapitation of Hezbollah's leadership via exploding pagers. Perhaps we plan to do the same, using another means, to Iran's leaders.

 

Overlooked, is the question of what Russia will have to do to protect its interests, when we set Iran ablaze.

 

Shortsightedness is a quintessentially American characteristic.

 

Notice, for instance, that American Gaza ceasefire negotiator — Steve Witkoff — is an overt Zionist.

 

That's American 'diplomacy' for you. A barrel of cretinous, but unbiased, monkeys could probably do better.

 

 

No prospective peace agreements, then?

 

In view of the fact that it was the United States that provoked the Ukraine War, why would Russia indulge a bellicose Trump — regarding Ukraine or anywhere else — especially when the US has again upped the level of its anti-Russian economic sanctions?

 

Notice that the United States, Europe and Ukraine serially broke previous peace accords regarding the Ukraine War.

 

So, what motivation do Russians, Iranians and Chinese have to believe a word that American leadership has to say about anything?

 

 

The moral? —  The United States is, it seems, about to ignite a potentially significant world conflict

 

The outcome is not likely to be pleasant. Unless Iran, Yemen and Russia completely abandon self-respect:

 

 

The Houthis, culturally courageous and honor-bound as they are, probably will not.

 

The other two are questionable. Overly cautious dithering, which only invites further West-originated attacks, has been one of their demonstrated characteristics.

 

 

American neocons smell blood in the water. That's what keeps the chaos going.

 

China, take note.
