Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Now that the Trump, May, and Macron regimes have proven beyond all doubt that they are lawless war criminal regimes, what is next?
Will the Russian president and foreign minister continue to speak of “our Western partners” and seek common ground with proven lawless war criminals? What would that common ground be?
How can other governments accept the US, UK, and French governments that intentionally lied about a Russian chemical attack on the Skripals and about a Syrian chemical attack on Douma, risking a third world war, and then themselves attacking Syria on the basis of a transparent lie unsupported by any evidence? How exactly do you conduct diplomatic relations with war criminals?
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended.

I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive.

You don’t. You put them on trial. Why aren’t Trump, May, and Macron on trial?
The reason is that the world has been conditioned, like Pavlov’s dogs, to expect and accept the West’s war crimes as ordinary common features of life. The West’s crimes are protected by precedents established by decades of failing to hold the West accountable. The West has squatters rights in committing unaccountable war crimes.
Stymied in the effort to overthrow Syria, Netanyahu is now focusing the Trump regime on renewing Washington’s conflict with Iran. Will Washington’s vassals continue to provide cover for Washington’s crimes, or are some of the Europeans beginning to understand that the risks they assume for Washington exceed the money that Washington pays them?
Where will Russia stand if Washington renews its assault on Iran?
Despite the air attacks carried out on its Syrian ally by the US, NATO, and Israel, the Russian government still has not found the decisiveness to sell Syria its S-300 air defense system. Syria intercepted 70% of the US missiles in the last attack using obsolete Soviet-era air defense systems. The S-300 would allow Syria to protect itself from air attack and thus reduce the chance of war resulting from Israeli and US attacks on Syria.
Russian indecisiveness combined with the rest of the world’s toleration of ongoing US war crimes suggests that more provocations will be orchestrated, that more lawless attacks will take place, and that eventually a fatal conflict will be brewed.
Think about it. The British are caught in the Skripal lie. Washington, the British, and the French are caught in the Douma chemical attack lie, and there are no consequences for those governments who orchestrated hoaxes and then used the hoaxes to justify their war crime.
How can it be that the American people are undisturbed by their government’s 17 years of wars based entirely on blatant lies? How can it be that the American people and the Evangelical churches are unmoved by the millions of innocent peoples in seven countries who have been murdered, maimed, orphaned, and displaced by the profit-driven US military/security complex and by the neoconservative ideology in service to Israel?
How can it be that the US media is as effective a propaganda ministry for Washington as the German press was for the Nazis?
How can it be that the European, Canadian, and Australian governments and the citizens of these countries are not ashamed of their participation in these never-ending crimes?
Where is India’s voice? China’s? South America’s?
Why is the world silent in the face of massive, long-term, ongoing war crimes?
Why does the Russian government think it can have a partnership with a war criminal regime? Why would Russia want such a shameful and demeaning association?
Where is Russia’s counterpart to NATO?
Where is there any determination to put a halt to the West’s criminality?
Why is the world content with Washington’s path to world war?

This is the locus of the problem. Israel is a cancer that may yet destroy the world. The world must unite against it or we are truly fucked.
PCR needs to move to a state with legal marijuana so he can smoke some everyday and calm down. Putin and Xi are playing the long game. They continue to express themselves as very reasonable leaders. They don’t bomb any nations or threaten them with sanctions. They just let the Merica continue to make fools of themselves.
We are going to destroy ourselves with absolutely no help needed from Russia or China.
Absolutely PERFECT answer!! Just “wait and watch” is the wisest possible choice by Russia and China.
I wonder how many leaders of countries actually like us?
I wonder how many people in countries actually like us?
I’m not even sure our so-called friends like us. When the shit does hit the fan I think it’s gonna be real ugly for Americans, especially for ex-pats.
They aren’t gonna “watch and wait” when American bombs falling on Iran fuck up their New Silk Road project.
That’s why my boat has no hailing port on the stern and a Maple Leaf just in case.
The Neocons survive by deception and tyranny; they obey the big liar their father the Devil, like the Nazis before them, and the Useful Idiots believe the Zionist. They need excuses to attack Syria even if they have to invent them. As another example, they claim a little CO2 can explain the heating of the Earth (ignore the fact that the Sun hit it’s Modern Grand Solar Maximum about 1960, the real source of the heat). They used that Big Lie to persuade Useful Idiots to destroy all coal fired plants and convert them to natural gas, thereby destroying the coal industry. When the New Madrid earthquake destroys all the pipelines to New England, gas energy is immediately cut whereas many months of coal would have been in piles and resupply would have been by rail. An analogy, Zionist claim they have naturally higher IQs than Goy (Zionist CO2 in brains) and that accounts for their huge success in America (ie, why 10% of Crony Capitalist own 50% of American wealth). Just ignore the Central Bank (the Sun) which produces the dollars (and cannot be audited by Congress). Also ignore Ft Knox which they claim holds 8,000 tons of US Treasury gold but Congress may not audit. The truth is that 330,000,000 Americans would produce 50 times more geniuses than the small number of American Zionist could produce and if success was really based on intelligence, the Jews would be working for a living like the rest of us.
It is simple, and PCR knows this. They are silent because they get a little taste of the cum. Who distributes the cum I can not say but the taste is enough to keep everyone happy, and silent.
What if God and Satan both inspired the men who wrote passages in the Tanakh. There are God’s Prophecies about the Messiah in verses like Is 50:6, Is 53, 61:1-2; Dan 9:25; Ps 2:7, 16:10, 22:1&17, 34:20; Zech 9:9, 11:12, 12:10, Zech 13 & 14; and others. But did Satan give the land from the Nile to the Euphrates, order the murders of women and children, gave them the Talmud, promise to forgive sins for roasted meat, urged they reject and murder the World’s Messiah, persecute Christians, and call Jews back to Palestine in ways to cause WWIII.
The rest of the world in not content with Western developed countries. Agree with Stuckmeister – a day will arrive when nations exact their long overdue revenge on the Imperialist killers. Sad; from pinnacle to the depths.
Shame? Please, it’s only about power and power = whatever your heart desires.

Endless information overload and dividing your own citizens against each other forever. That’s how.
“Why is the world content with Washington’s path to world war?”
———————-
I’m going to assume it’s because it’s easier to simply do nothing.
Must be that ‘American Exceptionalism’ thing.
I think what that really means is that America takes ‘exception’ to the same moral standards that they demand from nations they want to control.
Starting wars, murdering innocents, and lying about it is fine when we do it…

Trump is barely able to fight these people. What an I supposed to do, write to my dual citizen Senator or Congressman?
Does anyone have a definitive list of senators and congresscritters that have dual citizenship that is accurate and proven?
