Planetary Revolt against a morbidly savage Cop

In October of 1939, a month after the start of World War II, Winston Churchill was asked in a radio broadcast what he thought Russia will do. Churchill answered: “I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest”.

Almost 78 years later, Henry Kissinger, writing about North Korea, says this: “Military action by the U.S. would involve a risk of conflict with China. Beijing would not abide America determining outcomes at the very edge of China's heartland.” The question is this: What happened in 78 years that brought the world to this state?

The situation in East Asia is thoroughly described in the Kissinger article containing the above cited quotation. The article came under the title: “How to Resolve the North Korea Crisis” and the subtitle: “An understanding between the U.S. and Beijing is the essential prerequisite. Tokyo and Seoul also have key roles to play.” It was published on August 12, 2017 in the Wall Street Journal.

But having described the situation and the ramifications that flow from it, Kissinger offered no practical solution to the Korea issue except to say that the U.S. should work closely with China to find one. And the reason why Kissinger offered no solution is that he chose to avoid the history that's behind it all.

So here is that history in brief. It happened that Churchill was elected Prime Minister of Britain in 1940 and was defeated in his re-election bid of 1945. Instead of accepting his defeat and enjoying a well deserved retirement, he sought to influence the conduct of an empire that could become greater than the British Empire, which he knew was irretrievably declining. He called the new empire “the English-speaking world,” and properly guessed that its center of gravity will shift to America.

Churchill got himself invited there, and delivered a speech in the presence of the American President Harry Truman. That speech should rank as the most effective package of demagoguery ever uttered up to that time. In fact, Churchill accused the Soviet Union of pulling down an iron curtain to protect itself from outside influences while at the same time promoting the rise of fifth columns all over the nations of Europe to increase its own influence in those places. Thus, Churchill started the Cold War in which he enlisted the United States of America and made it lead combatant; a role that morphed to become policeman of the world.

Shortly thereafter, America began a policy of containment by encircling the Soviet Union with military bases that began to annoy not only the Soviets but other nations that used to be fond of America but started to lose that fondness ... one such nation being China. In fact, the US and China clashed in a bitter war over Korea more than six decades ago without Britain participating in the effort in any meaningful way. Eventually an armistice was declared, and a relative peace was maintained until now. As to the current verbal flare-up between America, China and North Korea; it can be interpreted as the latest chapter in the history of that unfolding story.

Churchill's steerage of America to where he wanted that country to be was a lesson that the French did not miss. They were having trouble keeping their Asian colonies in check, and the Churchill example gave them ideas. They called on the Americans to help them in Vietnam, and bolted out as soon as the Americans landed there. Like a duty-bound cop, the Americans gave it all they had, but like the saying goes: the rest is history with regard to the way that the ill-advised adventure ended.

Still, like the French would say: “Jamais deux sans trois,” which means never twice without a third time, a third player got the same idea. The latest to pull a fast one on America were the Jews who planned a massive operation that made the superpower drop everything it was doing for its people, and start working exclusively for the benefit of Israel. To accomplish this feat, the Jews had unleashed a demagogic Niagara Falls against their neighbors; one that made the Churchill demagoguery look like a small backwoods creek.

Even though Israel is located at the western side of Asia, whereas Korea sits at the eastern side of the continent, the two cases are related in that the implications which flow from the way America strokes different folks, has helped create a cause and effect situation.

Simply put, China and North Korea cannot stomach America's interference in their affairs when that country prides itself on having Israel's back every time the little thing says it has a nuclear arsenal it does not have. Worse, this is the same America which destroyed Iraq that never had nuclear weapons but was accused, without a shred of evidence, of having them.

Put all that together, and add what's happening in the Persian Gulf, and you have a planet that's up in arms telling a morbidly savage cop powered by Jewish depravity, he is not wanted in their neighborhood.

This is a time in history in which the world finds itself upside-down, a reality that must be making Winston Churchill roll in his grave just to remain right side up.
