An intervention intended to crown the US imperial project ended up "losing" Russia instead
Understanding the present-day events in Ukraine is impossible unless you study what happened in 1999 with Serbia. There is a Hegelian thread that runs directly from NATO’s ostensible “humanitarian intervention” to the Russian “special military operation,” linking Belgrade to Belgorod – and everything in-between.
When the first NATO jets dropped their bombs on the capital of then-Yugoslavia, on March 24, 1999, it was supposed to be the crowning achievement of a project described at the time as “benevolent global hegemony.” More commonly known today as the “rules-based international order,” it would be unipolar; the US would make all the rules and the rest of the globe would fall into two camps: allies and future targets.
The US, with NATO as its enforcement arm, had already managed to sideline the UN during the first half of the decade. UN peacekeepers were simply shoved aside during a US-backed Croatian onslaught against Serbs, followed by the NATO bombing of Serbs in Bosnia and a peace agreement negotiated in the shadow of US bombers at an airbase near Dayton, Ohio.
By February 1998, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was describing the US as “the indispensable nation,” willing and able to use force “to sacrifice for freedom, democracy and the American way of life.” Little wonder, then, that Albright was one of the main drivers of the 1999 NATO assault on Yugoslavia, with champions and critics alike dubbing it “Madeleine’s War.” RT
The above is posted in RT and explained what “rules-based international order,” is all about. It is the law and order of the world's number one terrorist state. The Americans write the rules and everyone must obey. Anyone believes that this is good for the world, to live under the terror of the Americans?
In recent years, under this terrorist order, the Americans have invaded Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Pakistan, Yugoslavia, Serbia, Kosovo and got away with it with no condemnation from the UN or the rest of the world, because there was no country strong enough to stop the world's number terrorists from terrorising these countries. And they talked about peace, bringing peace to the world, that they are protecting freedom, democracy and human rights...and China are Russia are the aggressive and expansionist nations, the threat to peace. And many fools believe in this American sinister lie and want the world to accept the evil Empires' “rules-based international order”.
Can you believe it? And the terrorists are still preaching this order and preaching peace everyday and smearing China and Russia as the threat to world peace, NOT the terrorists, NOT the American evil Empire?
Need to explain further? Anyone still cannot see the hypocrisy and still wants to believe in this American lie and hypocrisy?
The Americans are the threat to world peace. Period.
PS. The Americans only know one type of warfare, confrontation and use of military force. Their one sided self made rules are only for themselves and can only be enforced by their use of military force.
China would fight the Americans in other areas, especially in economics and trade. The most direct fight would be dedollarisation. Mao's strategy is the enemy fight their wars, we fight our own wars. The Americans want a military war by daily provocations and sailing of warships into Chinese waters. China disregard them as a waste of fuel, time and resources. China is winning and getting stronger everyday without a war. China is going after what really hurts, to kill the dollar without fighting.
Russia, BRICS and SCO are all working on this, to cut down dollar hegemony and to cripple the American Empire for good.
Anyone open mouth, close mouth uttering about rules based order, China is assertive, China is aggressive, China is expansionist, genocide in Xinjiang, freedom of navigation, debt trap, Wuhan virus etc etc, all American fabricated catchphrases, is a giveaway that they are unthinking, silly American stooges.
ReplyDeleteAll these phrases fit the Americans like a glove. They are Americans' own mirror images.
Read and listen to the silly reporters or journalists in the main media and Channel News America, you will know who they are and where they are coming from.
Many people don't realize what "rules based order" means. It means USA sets all the RULES and ORDERS everyone around
ReplyDeleteIt means all the rules and laws are made by the Americans ie American Laws like what they are making everyday. An example is to interfere and defend Taiwan, a part of China.
ReplyDeleteRules based order is not about international laws or UN Laws. And it is enforced by the Americans not by the UN.
The Swiss government is trying to prevent a significant decrease in the size of its armed forces
ReplyDeleteMilitary service may become mandatory for women in Switzerland due to a shortage of army personnel, the country’s ATS news agency reported on Wednesday.
Currently, female volunteers make up less than 1% of the Swiss Army, while the overall number of troops is projected to significantly decrease in the coming years.
The Swiss government has submitted a report on the shortage of personnel in its armed forces and in civil protection to the national parliament’s upper chamber.
Ministers have proposed two options to address the matter:
1. The first is to make service compulsory for Swiss women, which would make it possible to double the numbers.
This idea, as the Swiss government explained in March, was inspired by Norway, which introduced gender-neutral conscription in 2013.
2. Another option offered by the Federal Council is a merger of the civil service and civil protection into a new organization, dealing with “disaster protection.” In this scenario, women would be recruited on a voluntary basis, as it is happening now.
The government suggests that the Army would still have priority in the recruiting process over the new organization.
Sad to said, sinkies elite love this Amercunt "rule" to protect their $$|asset
ReplyDeleteSwitzerland is going to be roasted after declaring sanction against Russia and joining the American camp instead of being neutral.
ReplyDeleteSeems like the USA's 'Rules Based International Order' is really a 'Rules Based Terrorism Order'.
ReplyDeleteAnd all that self declared hubris is led by the No. 1 Terrorist of the world. The wars they created, the regime changes they instigated in order to gain control of the legitimate Governments, the destablisation of countries and regions they desire to control, the subterfuge against legitimate Governments using NGOs, the seizure of assets as they like. What good things have the No. 1 Terrorist brought to countries around the world? Nothing about alleviating poverty, nothing about infrastructure developments and everything about destruction and countering China and Russia day in and day out.
The Ukraine War was all instigated by the USA to extend NATO to the doorstep of Russia. Ukraine was arm twisted by the USA and UK to sideline the Minks Agreement. That Agreement had called for the ceasing of Ukraine's genocide against Donetsk and Luhanks, among others. Sidelining the Agreement meant the genocide attempts continued, forcing Russia to liberate the two major Russian speaking republics against further harrassment by Ukraine on the behest of the USA, UK and NATO.
In fact, early negotiations were successful in ending the War in April, but the USA, using UK, sabotaged all that by forcing Ukraine not to seek a negotiated settlement with Russia. They wanted the war to continue, hoping to destroy Russia. Instead, the USA is destroying the EU and NATO.
The EU had banked on the USA being able to step in to replace their energy needs, after assurances by Biden, and readily jumped on the sanctions bandwagon to stop importing Russian energy, supposedly at their own timeline. Well, Putin gave them a much better deal by cutting oil and gas supplies to the EU to a minimum right away, which by December 5th will be total, but already with only a trickle left. With the USA now appearing in no position to provide an alternative source of energy supply to the EU, everything is going haywire and in panic mode right now.
And who is benefiting from all this? Saudi Arabia is buying discounted oil from Russia for their own domestic consumption, while selling their own oil and making huge profits from it all. Now, why would they not make hay while the sun shines. China and India are probably also profiting from buying Russian oil and gas and reselling it to Europe at huge profits as well.
And to add insult to injury, Russia is itself reaping in more revenues per month at US$22 billion on energy exports, far more than in 2021. And to add further salt to the wound, OPEC+ has decided to reduce oil production by 100,000 barrels per day. Biden must be fuming, after making a trip to beg Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Prince, to increase production instead, and obviously getting a slap on his dementia face. Maybe, he has forgotten all that by now, due to dementia.
