When a protest is a 'sight to behold' even though it is
not a real war, it shows the mindset of the war mongers. Ask Nancy
Pelosi, the evil witch.
Now they know war and its destruction is
not going to avoid the USA. The missiles, the drones are not going to
avoid the USA. But for now, as long a war is not on USA soil, the USA
tells its allies and cronies that there is an iron-clad commitment that
they will help.
That iron-clad commitment did not last in
Vietnam, did it? It did not last, even after two decades in Afghanistan
as well. How long is Ukraine going to last with the iron-clad' promise
trotted out every day. How can the EU still be buying the USA 'iron
clad' commitment really boggles the mind?
And Taiwan is now
saying that the defense of Taiwan must depend on Taiwanese themselves.
Is this an indication that the USA is changing its 'iron clad'
commitment to Taiwan? Perhaps TSMC is now not worth protecting with
China closing the gap on high-end chip making? The Chip Alliance is
losing the chip war. Taiwan has little strategic value I suppose.

Countries with 'iron clad' commitments by the USA are more like being taken prisoners or hostages by the USA using its 'iron chains' to keep them obedient. But they are just stupidly thinking it is their safety at risk, without realizing that it is the USA enslaving them without their knowledge to hang on to its interest.
ReplyDeleteWhen the USA can unilaterally break away from treaties and agreements, what is there to guarantee that the USA will not break away from those commitments they made by word of mouth? Mikhail Gorbachev fell for the con and did Russia a big dis-service, that Putin is trying to salvage.
Trusting the USA is just like trusting a snake not to bite you. The USA has no morality, conscience nor commitment over anything. Where alliances are forged, it is always in the interest of protecting the USA itself. Just look at NATO, AUKUS, the QUAD, the five eyes, the Chips Alliance. Are such alliances to protect the members over and above the USA's interest? Only the naive and foolish would think so.
