The coming collapse of NATO

 In a damaged world, at the end of World War II, only two great powers remained standing, capitalist America and communist Soviet Union. Naturally they were rivals, and both sought to undermine the other in the pursuit of the goal of becoming and remaining the sole superpower. The Americans came up with a proposal to the war devastated countries, that chose to follow America. The USA would support countries to rebuild their nations,  provide massive financing, technology, manpower and material resources. Totally open up the American market to these countries to freely sell their goods and services in America. The only condition was America would write and control their security policy and in turn America would guarantee their security. To implement this plan three security organisations were set up SEATO, CENTO and NATO. SEATO (The SouthEast Asia Treaty Organisation) formed as an anti Communist organisation in 1954. Its members were Australia, France, New Zealand, Pakistan, t...

Lèse-majesté

  Lèse-majesté is a French term 'to do wrong to majesty'. It is a millennia old concept that one cannot offend the sovereign of a state. Even in democracies many elected officials unleash the harshest of reactions should they or their ideas be questioned, let alone criticised. Over a four hundred year period (1500 - 1920) Europe though sheer ruthlessness, deceit, cunning, and industry had colonised large parts controlling at its peak 84% of the world to became rulers of the world. The tragedy is after two world wars and loss of their colonies and reduced to 18% of the world, they still consider themselves as the rulers of the entire world except allies like Japan, Australia, Canada etc. Rulers consider themselves above the principles, laws and practices they themselves espouse for others to follow. They do pretty much what they want and their own populace and others across the world must meekly submit. After world war II America became the emperor and Europe became kingdoms ...

The war in Ukraine, is not even about Ukraine

The world stands on the brink of a World War.  The conflict in Ukraine is not even about Ukraine. It's about great power rivalry. The American led West against the Russian led powers of the East. Both groups dragging many other nations across the globe into seemingly an insane but in reality a sinister conflict. As a result the war is not just claiming lives and property as much as it is destroying souls and damaging humanity. Why is this happening? The world was ruled for 400 years by European empires like Britain, France, Spain, Germany, the Dutch, Portugal, etc.  Unrestrained arrogance and greed of European rulers, leaders and business interests led to numerous conflicts and culmination in two World Wars. This greatly weakened Europe and their empires. A shrewd America used her vast natural resources and industrial power to supply almost half the weapons, ammunition, and goods used in these wars and subsequent reconstruction to both the warring sides. As a result America em...

War Propaganda - 10 Commandments

We do not want War. The opposite party alone is guilty of war. The enemy is the face of the devil. We defend a noble cause, not our own interest. The enemy systematically commits cruelties: our mishaps are involuntary. The enemy uses forbidden weapons. We suffer small losses, those of the enemy are enormous. Artists and intellectuals back our cause Our cause is sacred All those who doubt our propaganda are traitors ~ Arthur Ponsonby _____________________________________________   Does this sound familiar? Should be. Because it is the propaganda message that we are being bombarded with night and day by the Western (America, Europe etc.) led media and their governments in collusion with their partners in insanity, the current Ukrainian government and their propaganda machinery. Before the first world war UK, France and Germany were the great powers of the world. Then vested political, business interests in pursuit of expanding Liberal Imperialism clamoured for war, which Arthur Pons...
