The imperialist obsession with Iran, the brown country that refuses to kowtow to Zioconned Western injustice, colonization, ignorance and impoverishment.... To the white powers, there is no greater sin than a non-white, non-Christian nation like Iran thumbing its nose at all the hypocritical values that the West holds so dear....
Pity the West. After 500 years of undisputed hegemony, the end of that domination is nigh. The signs, of course, are everywhere; China playing the role of enabler to Amerika the obsessive-compulsive junkie, India siphoning jobs out of middle Wonderland, Japan, Taiwan and Korea being the sole provider of everything of manufactured value. But of all the symbols that proclaim doom, none compares in comic absurdity to the imperialist obsession with Iran, the brown country that refuses to kowtow to Western injustice, colonization and impoverishment. To the white powers, there is no greater sin than a non-white, non-Christian nation like Iran thumbing its nose at all the hypocritical values that the West holds so dear.
Monday saw the unveiling of yet another futile, impotent and irrelevant embargo, sanction or restriction on the Islamic Republic. This farcical ritual has become so commonplace that no one even musters a yawn anymore when some State Department blowhard pompously proclaims this or that denying to Iran of something the West thinks is a big deal. The fact is, nothing has worked. Neither the levers of finance or the rattling of swords will deny Iran their right to protect themselves from the capitalist-Zionists. One would think that the Wonder-landers would run out of things to attempt to coerce Iran with, yet every week comes some new and improved sanction to follow the hundreds of worthless sanctions that over 32 years have done nothing but embolden, anger and reinforce Iran's defiance.
The definition of insanity seems operative here, and the Looney Americans, Brits and NATO stooges will continue to whittle down their list of things left to embargo on Iran until all they'll have left is pistachio nuts (somehow very apropos). Maybe Washington will pepper Tehran with the shelled nuts, because that's as close as a bankrupt Pentagon will come to warring with the Persian state. What these white idiots don't realize is that these very acts of punitive futility enrich the ascendant East by allowing Asians to profit from supplying the Iranians with all those "embargoed" items, thus allowing Tehran to continue its nuclear program with nary a worry. They accept Iranian oil in payment without a concern over the easily evaded "restrictions" imposed on companies that trade with Iran. (Though don't doubt for a second that Western companies and politicians aren't profiting mightily also.)
All this means that the West can do nothing but grind their teeth in frustration that all the elements that have allowed them to subjugate the brown people of the planet for 500 years is now useless. They have been broken on the wheel of belligerent war, reckless finance and social injustice, and their so-called role models of democracy, capitalism and technology have been shown to be impotent portends of decline, decay and death....HC ; LOL
Russia is deploying warships at its base in Syria. The battle group includes aircraft carrying missile cruiser Admiral Kuznetsov. The deployment is being projected as pre-planned and having no relation to the current tensions in Syria, but it follows the US move to station the George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group with support vessels off Syria. Speculation is mounting about a western ‘humanitarian intervention’ in Syria.
US and Turkey have asked their nationals to leave Syria. Arab League is linking up with European Union on Syria. France is taking the leadership once again. Interestingly, Turkey has been invited specially to the
EU foreign ministers’ meeting in Brussels. The moves look strikingly similar to the Libyan intervention.
The Russian MFA spokesman said on Friday, “The human rights situation in a particular country may certainly be the subject of international concern, but human rights issues under no conditions should be used as a pretext for interfering in the internal affairs of states, in this case Syria. The Syrian people must decide their own fate, without ‘tips from outside.
We absolutely do not accept a scenario of military intervention in Syria.“
There have been unconfirmed reports that Russian military advisers may be helping Syria to set up advanced S-300 missiles, which will make it extremely risky for the West to impose a ‘no-fly zone’ as it did in Libya....
The big question is whether there could be a US-Russia showdown over Syria. For US, regime change in Syria opens the road to taking on Hamas and Hezbollah next, which would isolate Iran. The stakes are very high. For Russia, loss of the Tartus naval base will be a serious blow that will cripple its capability to operate in the Mediterranean region, apart from Syria being an old ally. A US-Russia showdown over Russia can have implications for a host of other issues - Afghan endgame, Iran nuclear problem, US-Pakistan tensions, etc.
Significantly, Kremlin is deputing Russia’s ambassador to NATO,
Dmitry Rogozin to Beijing and Tehran for consultations over the US/NATO missile defense system. Russia has been focusing on the ABM as a bilateral problem so far with US. Now, commonality of interests is being explored with China and Iran. The implications are profound for the regional security in Central and South Asia as well as the Far East.
To be sure, India’s ‘Act East’ policies - US-India-Japan ‘trilateral dialogue’ in particular - are in Russia’s sights too, as much as China’s. The ‘time-tested’ Russian-Indian cooperation seems to be heading for testy times even as India harmonizes with the US’s Asia-Pacific strategy. PM Manmohan Singh’s forthcoming Moscow summit will throw light on the Zioconned fault lines.... LOL
