USUK Seeks Wider War with Iran via Yemen

US-British Strikes on Yemen Seek to Provoke Wider War with Iran
🔹US-British strikes on Yemen have predictably only escalated regional tensions;
🔹Yemen has been targeted for years not only by US-British backed Saudi air and missile strikes, but also a multi-year, Saudi-led ground invasion, neither of which impacted Ansar Allah’s military capabilities;
🔹US-British strikes on Yemen have only made passage through the Red Sea more dangerous, delaying by many months the possibility of commercial shipping returning to the route;
🔹US policy papers have laid out the ultimate objective for the region is removing Iran as a competitor through regime change using covert action within Iran while undermining Iranian allies across the region;
🔹Rather than attempting to de-escalate and stabilize the region, it is clear the US is determined to do exactly the opposite, ultimately hoping to draw Iran into a direct confrontation;

With respect I have to disagree with Brian Berletic’s automatic assumption that USA/UK are somehow in control of if or when to escalate the situation in the Asia West region. It is blindingly obvious that since the October 7 attack on Israel that the Empire is being systematically drawn deeper… Read more »

With Turkey approving Sweden’s accession to NATO we can’t really blame the ‘Sultan of Swing’ for this shocker – apparently, the legislators voted 287 for 55 against and 5 abs! Re Hungary (Jan 24 Reuters) – the word is that Orban has told the lunatic Stoltenberg that he will continue… Read more »

Friend emersonreturn, personally I don’t worry. This degree of brinkmanship is standard for people who are split from their true nature – running in front of the headache, as my very wise wife used to say. This is not escalation, this is “proceed, then collapse back”, in every theater and… Read more »

Grieved; An excellent comment. Thank you, and my regards to your “very wise wife.” I have been reflecting on just how mechanical and subhuman are the responses of empire. Your analogy of the automaton of a house cleaning robot completes the picture. Brinkmanship and back away when faced with sanity… Read more »

I thought I had filed your info on Marx’s doctoral thesis, but cannot find it. Could you post again please.
Thank you.

Hi Steve:  Yes this quotation is pure gold alright, and it cuts to the heart of how deeply Marx is underestimated as a philosopher.  Reason being his world view has been mistakenly interpreted as a materialist ontology.  That is pure 19th century bourgeois ideology.  Marx called his materialism a tautology. Huge difference.  Not to confuse… Read more »

Many thanks Snowy, that’s excellent. Also found this in the Preface, “Philosophy makes no secret of it. The confession of Prometheus: In simple words, I hate the pack of gods [Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound] is its own confession, its own aphorism against all heavenly and earthly gods who do not acknowledge human self-consciousness… Read more »

We are making rich music here Steve. Your quote from Marx details the essence of his vision. Supersede religious formulations that oblige separation from self and rise to a level of socialized self actualization. It is truly a Promethean challenge in the field of political understandings. Isn’t that why Marxism… Read more »

“Isn’t that why Marxism scares so many people so intensely?”

Exactly. Many fear their intellectual superiors. Many fear that which they do not understand.

“…tune into my own inner work more.”
Snowy, I’ve been at it for over fifty years and there’s still work to be done!

Cheers

That makes us about the same age, and “flying in formation.” Any way we can get each other’s email addresses?

Not that I can think of with safety. We need to ask a 10 year old! I used to contribute to a science site that had a process in place for that — the email went to the site, was forwarded by the site and the recipient could choose to… Read more »
