US Hawks
From Eurasia and Multipolarity
What the “hawks” of the Republicans advise Trump to do for a complete reformatting of world politics and the return of the United States to the status of a global leader:
1. Reducing the role of NATO and creating an alternative alliance – a new, more exclusive alliance only for those countries that support US global priorities.
2. Complete abolition or radical change of the UN – Trump could withdraw the United States from the UN and declare it ineffective, proposing to create a new organization where the United States would be the only arbiter.
3. Recognition of the independence of a number of disputed territories around the world: Taiwan, Kurdistan, etc. which would cause a chain reaction and a crisis of legitimacy of international borders.
4. The bet on the use of “PMCs” and the expansion of the role of private military companies in American foreign policy missions, which would lead to an increase in their influence on world politics.
5. Withdrawal from all global environmental agreements and stimulation of “mega-productions” in the US – Trump could abandon environmental agreements and urge other countries to follow the example of the United States and return to the West the main production facilities which were brought mainly in Asia over the last few decades.
6. Withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) – A complete rejection of WHO and the launch of a US-led medical organization.
7. Conducting military interventions against Mexico (“to secure the border”), Venezuela (return to the Monroe doctrine and to seize the oil), Iran (gift to Israel, likely a bombing campaign rather than an invasion), Libya (as a way to regain access to cheap resources in Africa) and Yemen (to secure the Red Sea trade route).
Recalling Zappa> “I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Politics Is the Entertainment Branch of Industry. C-SPAN’s coverage of governmental proceedings is wonderful. Caution! Buffoons on the Hill! Wallowing in blabber and spew, regiments of ex-lawyers and used-car salesmen attempt to distract us from the naughty little surprises… Read more »
Good time to remember Ben Norton’s dissection:
Donald Trump is NOT a ‘threat to the deep state’. Here is his warmongering record

Wait, I have two more things to say. What do US administrations do without fail when they are found to do things that are just wrong? Invariably they blame the other guy. Trump blames the neocons for his previous mistakes. I just don’t know how anyone can fall for pre-election… Read more »
This assemblage of neocon wet dreams is exactly why Trump has no neocons advising him. Many claim it, but the reality is he intends to negotiate America back to global influence and he intends no wars of any kind or size.
What is the source of these seven ‘hopes’?
The only Trump stump that I watched was the discussion with Joe Rogan. You know, the one where he says Pompeo is such a good guy and the moustached one is an idiot but he took him along just so he could scare others with swift and sure war. The… Read more »
You nailed it Amarynth – especially in the last paragraph – for crying out loud, the buffoon is only marginally literate. IMO, the only thing more tragic than the appalling quality of both candidates, is this clinging to a belief that either would be even remotely capable of rescuing the… Read more »
Thanks Colin, yes, I saw the replies but you had said it all, so for a change I kept quiet lol.
Caitlin Johnstone… Dec 2023 Caitlin nailed it then – I was going to say nothing much has changed – but I believe almost 4 years on, he has become even more unhinged and archetypically narcissist. https://caityjohnstone.medium.com/everyone-was-wrong-about-trump-79faface949c After four years everyone — left, right and center — has been proven wrong… Read more »
…and… https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2023/06/23/elections-are-like-a-toy-steering-wheel-for-babies-notes-from-the-edge-of-the-narrative-matrix/? “Trump’s recent comments about taking Venezuela’s oil are another good illustration of the real reason major factions of the imperial blob dislike Trump. It’s not because he’s “anti-war” or “fighting the Deep State” (he isn’t) — it’s because he’s a sloppy empire manager who makes the machine look… Read more »
” negotiating America back to global influence” using the style and approach and mindset of Blinken/Burns in West Asia or Sully & Lord Raytheon in 404 is precisely a prescription for worsening wars, if not Armageddon. I really do not get the lasting nostalgia for Trump, quite disproven by facts… Read more »
You certainly don’t miss much, AHH!… Senator @LindseyGrahamSC is a good friend and strong voice for the people of South Carolina. He’s helped us confirm GREAT Judges, rebuild the Military, and keep our Country SAFE. Strong on Life and our Vets. Lindsey has my Complete and Total Endorsement! https://t.co/UzEJ5jjnNX —… Read more »
“Recognition of the independence of a number of disputed territories around the world: Taiwan, Kurdistan, etc. which would cause a chain reaction and a crisis of legitimacy of international borders.” America itself is an Anglo colonizer nation based on the theft of a continent, As such, the USA will reap… Read more »
