Sunday Schmooze around the bar – Update
We’ve been publishing this slogan for months now, and so far, it has been as accurate as a slogans can be:
✅The strategy of empire going forward will be one of denial of world development through chaos creation
Up to now, this was accurate. I only need to reference a string of names: Panama Canal, Greenland, Canada, Ukraine SMO, India – Pakistan, West Asia specifically now in Syria, and then Gaza, West Bank, so-called negotiations on Iran, Aircraft carriers in the Red Sea aimed at Yemen, Ukraine again, the rare earth minerals so-called deal.
✅While the approach has shifted, imperialist aspirations endure.
We know this because the Trump Boyz say so, interview after interview.
✅The fragile veil of a pretense of peace lies irrevocably torn asunder, its remnants eclipsed by the unrelenting tide of violence that now reigns.
Again a string of names confirm this: Peace president, now confirmed in Papal guise, India – Pakistan, West Asia specifically now in Syria, and then Gaza, West Bank, so-called negotiations on Iran, Aircraft carriers in the Red Sea aimed at Yemen and Israel following or setting the trend. There is no law.
✅The strategy is beginning to unravel both internally in the US and in international affairs, as the world is saying a resounding NO”.
The Peace president’s ratings are tumbling and the world is saying a resounding NO on Tariffs. Even Japan grumbles, can you believe it. But they have just signed the first of what will prove to be a new deal even though they’ve signed it with those that do not have the legal standing to sign it. There is a principle being demonstrated here.
✅The enemy is the system that needs an enemy.
It is in this part of the slogan that a very clear old, but new empirical war is beginning to show itself.
There are few that pick this up, so, let’s talk. What could the new empirical strategy be?
This post is intended to be a discussion and I will ask a list of questions.
First, let us note the language change: ‘Deal’ and ‘rare earth minerals’ have now replaced the word ‘democracy. Law has been forgotten. This is easy to see as Israel has just attacked an aid ship in international waters and are shooting whatever they want to. There is no international law in those hands and the US loves it. We also change the concept of ’empire’ where the heart of strategy is currently at home in what we call the USofA.
Questions:
In terms of ‘rare earth minerals’, what has the US just accomplished in the Ukraine? There is a reason, a principle for this ‘deal’ that is far beyond minerals.
We can ask the same question in terms of Greenland, and strangely, the USofA is trying to negotiate with the Taliban currently, for ‘rare earth minerals’.
What is the objective in the Sahel States where we see comments being made to attempt to break the social cohesion that Traoré accomplished, specifically with the memories of African leaders, all killed, being revived now? Why are they rubbishing Ebrahim Traoré.
What is happening in the Phillipines? Where are the ‘feet’, and why?
Why is Africa being seeded with Type ISIS, right down into Mozambique?
What is the objective of Trump continually wanting to ‘help’ Mexico with controlling the cartels? What do they want?
Why is Southcom making formal comments in Guatemala, accusing China of stealing Guatemala data with no word from Guatemala. (Compare with Traoré, where they say he is misusing the country’s gold).
Did you know that a new supermax prison, another penal colony, is being built in Equador?
Why can South Korea not bring a government together?
Is the US fighting with Europe? Why is there a clear support for Germany’s AfD and Britian’s Farage, but none for France’s Marine Le Pen?
Why has NED gone dark, while there are reports that CIA operatives will be fired? Attempts to pose as “dismantling” the NED, USAID, and other increasingly exposed US tools of political interference simply served as cover for streamlining and concealing them better – Berletic.
There are a host of examples of this nature. We all know that the world is being shaken down now to pay the US of A to become rich again. But how? This principle goes much further than tariffs.
Update: Just perfect, just now, and makes the point! Trump OPEN to ‘civilian energy’ nuclear program with Iran — but with a caveat. ‘Civilian energy, it’s called. But you know, civilian energy often leads to military wars. And we don’t want to have them have a nuclear weapon. It’s a very simple deal’
Finally:
What is empire really very good at? What do they do best? And how can they make what they do best, with innocent optics? Bear in mind the military budget has just been increased. What are the rats doing? How will they cut their new deal? The answer stares us in the face if we take a look at where they want to put ‘feet’ and under what pretext. Buy now and pay later is the bedrock.
Let’s craft and adjust our slogan to lay bare the real strategy that is now crawling out of the rabbit hole.

And then we have RT, which we now can call RfT yes? Russians for Trump or MAGA Light.
The empire returns: The new global order for the new world
Why the 21st century might not be as post-imperial as we thought

Here is the new strategy, and we can see it most clearly with the Ukrainian agreement, in the Philippines, and in particular African countries, where two of these deals are being cemented now. In Rwanda, for example, a new deal for taking migrants is currently being discussed. But it is also apparent in the Panama Canal, Greenland, Taiwan, and most everywhere.
I must give credit to a good friend, who first put this into words.
The pattern Trump (Rubio) want to use is economic rights as wedge for military insertion to expand US hegemonic stake.
Let’s take a look at the Philippines. So now, there is economic activity on the atolls, ridges, and islands there. Slip in some military. Now, if China wants to kick out a vessel, suddenly they face US troops and not the Philippines.
Ukraine – again, economic activity (whether real or not), and now Russia is in a war on US terms.
Same with the Panama Canal, where troops must be slipped in and probably already are. Anybody who complains now deals with US troops.
Same with Mexico and the ‘help’ offered with the drug cartels. Now, the US has feet on the ground if it can convince Mexico.
This started some time ago, with agreements with Brazil to help ‘save’ the Rainforest, but the idea was still in the forming stage. For Argentina, the economic deal is that Argentina will stand as local US land for activity at the South Pole. That is what the latest IMF loan was all about, and Southcom has not left Argentina yet.
It is much more refined than just plopping down another US military base. Everyone is wise to this. This time, it is hidden under a legal-looking economic activity.
US Navy ships have paid a friendly visit to ports in western and eastern Libya for the first time in 56 years. According to US authorities, the goal was to demonstrate support for working with local partners. Later in the month, Washington plans to host the leaders of Libya’s conflicting parties.
Go through the list, and you will see this each and every time. The aim is China, and the method is to inculcate economic activity worldwide enough to get to Xi Jinping. They think the Ukrainian agreement deals with Russia.
This changes the paradigm. It alters strategic security in favor of the US. We must keep our eyes open regarding the economic activity agreed with Oman, which seemingly brokered a ceasefire with AnsarAllah.
“The pattern Trump (Rubio) want to use is economic rights as wedge for military insertion to expand US hegemonic stake.” Unfortunately, it’s not just Trump and Rubio. Economic threats (usually just competition) have been defined as threats to national security. It’s in their policy docs. It’s simply a justification for… Read more »
The current slogan still provides an answer to 90% of your questions. If you seek to adjust it, I’d propose you add something like: … whilst exerting control over its allies and always seeking ways to enrich itself at the cost of others, covertly when possible, and overtly when there’s… Read more »
There is a new tactic. What are they trying to do with the agreement with Ukraine? lol
I think it’s a pretty straightforward tactic of enriching the empire at the expense of another. Allies included.
I take into account that the empire is under the delusion that Russia wants a ceasefire and not achieve its maximalist objectives.
I’ll leave this up for a day or two, and then we will get to analysis.
RfT raises questions. If we accept that it is RfT then we ought to ask why… I credit the Ruski fellas with more subtle reasoning than the domestic US voters. I propose that the RT programming bias for Trump is calculated, not emotional…and pursues an agenda consonant with preventing global… Read more »
RT has been weird for ages, it attracts right wing yankees like ants to honey so one has to assume its part of the goal of their editorial, in the vein of all the Americans who love their idea of Russia because they think Putin is like Trump or that… Read more »
Your insight into the US right wingers is for me unbelievably deep.I myself cotton to communism (which I see as a very big tent), yet I pay attention to RT. My impression is that US “rightwingers” (whatever that means) pay zero attention to RT. I see no significant similarities ‘tween… Read more »
Thanks for your indepth reply Mr P 🙂 Yes i also notice many inconsistencies in RT and wonder what is the point. My comment stems from a combo of the headlines that are often skewed to support objectionable countries or people and reading the comments over the years, they are… Read more »
Mr P I forgot to add, yes I agree that Russian subtle or subterfuge is the likely reason for RT’s weirdness, yet it is true that it makes for an unreliable source for my purposes much of the time. I don’t think political subtlety explains it completely nor do i… Read more »
Post Imperial is simply fascist.
And that is also the answer to all of your questions Amarynth.
Its just because we wants it and we can still try to gets it.
Fascist yes, but after the war is settled the victors may hang the fascists…one fight at a time. We’ll see. My hunch is that the great industrialist enterprises will be brought to heel after their usefullness is spent. The richphucks that object may not live long. I’d expect a sort… Read more »
From above — “The enemy is the system that needs an enemy.”
Exactly.
But that can be more focused as “The enemy is the financial system that needs an enemy.”
