Hanging on to a crumbling Pax Americana

February 24, 25 and 26 are three remarkable days on the calendar of the year 2016.

On the first of those days, Benny Avni asked: “Does Obama want to give Gitmo to the Castros?” an article that was published in the New York Post. On the second of those days, Victor Davis Hanson lectured on “The Cost of Abandoning Messy Wars,” an article that was published in National Review Online. And on the third day, Elliott Abrams lamented: “Abandoning Human Rights in Egypt Will Not Produce Stability,” an article that was published on the website of the Council on Foreign Relations.

The three articles have one thing in common, which is that they decry the slow and steady abandonment of America's effort to try and implement the Judeo-Israeli agenda. The plan consists of the attempt to create a Middle Eastern modern-day Empire using the American military … and handing the bounty to the Jews of America and of Israel to do with it as they wish. As to America's role in the enterprise, it would have been to keep its military on high alert so as to continue standing like a sentinel protecting Israel and enforcing Jewish decrees by bludgeoning Arab and Muslim dissenters the way that Israel bludgeons the people of Palestine.

That plan was given the name Pax Americana by the so-called New Conservatives (Neocons) of America. They had modeled it after the ancient Roman Empire – of which Palestine was but a small colony – whereas the modern version fancies the transformation of today's occupied Palestine into the seat of Israeli and Jewish American power and dominance in the entire Middle Eastern region.

The trouble is that the history of the past half-century has not been kind to that sort of thinking. Indeed, America and some parts of the world were fooled into believing that the Jews of Israel had created a new world order that was here to stay. It was a delusion that began in 1967 when Israel unleashed a Pearl Harbor style attack on its unguarded neighbors and looked like the giant that was going to defend itself, and defend America, the world, civilization and everything good and worth preserving on this planet … if not the entire universe.

That's the image the Jewish propaganda machine has been describing to convince the American political class it should abandon working to safeguard the interests of the American people, and start working to feed the interests of “Israel, always Israel and no one but Israel.” The understanding being that every Jew, wherever he may be in the world, was a part of the deal since the Jews and Israel are one and the same.

Unfortunately, however, things began to go awry for the Americans and for the Jews. What happened was that the peaceful people of Palestine who never threw a stone at an Israeli tank or a soldier of occupation saw the gradual erosion of the influence they used to have over their children and grandchildren. And despite America's effort to keep those kids disarmed, dispirited and helpless, they learned on their own how to throw stones at the American-built tanks and the Jewish soldiers that were riding in them.

That's not all because at the same time as those events were developing in Palestine, the Americans who were expecting to see their twentieth century achievements crowned with the great honor of being named the ones who transformed the Middle East into a “democratic” nirvana – were beginning to see how the Jewish policies they had adopted were failing deplorably. It was happening, they said, because of “complex” reasons.

For one thing, the Americans were brainwashed into believing they were exceptional people because they freely chose to be subjugated by the Jews. In consequence of being so honored, they obeyed the command of their Jewish masters to go bomb the Arabs and the Muslims into the “Stone Age.” That's because the latter were deprived of the pleasure to choose the Jews as their masters, they explained. But after the exceptional bombed the deprived, it became obvious that the deprived were standing taller than the exceptional. Go figure.

With Israeli failures piling up in microcosmic Palestine and American failures piling up in macrocosmic Middle East, America had no choice but to retrench. That's why the Neocons are now asking questions, lecturing to the political class of America and lamenting the whole sordid mess.

Thus, you see Victor Davis Hanson counsel not to abandon the messy wars that America created. Meanwhile, Benny Avni wants to keep Gitmo open where prisoners will continue to be detained for an indefinite period of time. As to Elliott Abrams, he wants America to continue promoting the inalienable right of the Arabs and the Muslims to freely choose serving the Jews or being bombed into the Stone Age.
