The American Empire lie that no one believes in...and a mamasan in the brew

  The American are continuing to spread the lie that their 800 military bases around the world, with more than 100 in Japan alone, are there to protect these countries, protect their freedom and democracy. In their arrogance and lunacy, the Americans think that their colonies, allies and cronies are stupid, Trump is demanding Japan to double its annual payment of US$1.4b to support the American presence in Japan...to keep Japan as a permanent colony of the American Empire.

Trump is also demanding that all American allies and crony states must increase their defence budget, ie pay for American bases or to buy more American weapons, from 2% to 5%. Most of these countries are opposing this demand and dragging their feet. There is no need to wonder why these American allies, especially in Europe, Japan and South Korea are keeping their defence budget at only 2% or less. There seems to be a common understanding not to spend too much money for their 'defence'. What for, who is going to attack them? Their likely enemy is the Americans themselves. 

And the Americans are supposed to protect them, from who? To protect freedom and democracy? Really? These American allies, colonies and cronies know very well that all the money spent on defence is actually to protect the American Empire and its rule and control over them. As for Germany, Japan and South Korea, to keep them hostage as colonies of the American Empire.

With this understanding, who in his right mind would want to pay the Americans to guard over them and lord over them? The Americans still believe in this lie. The British knew that this lie cannot hold water and decided that it was best to withdraw their military forces back home, and let go of their control over their colonies, let them be independent countries or self ruled. The British could not afford to upkeep the huge military forces of the Empire if the colonies refused to pay up.

The Americans, especially Trump, still think everyone is stupid and would willingly pay the Americans and to be controlled and held hostage by the Americans as protectorates and cronies of the American Empire. By the way, the Japanese are likely to pay as demanded by Trump. They have no choice. Too many American bases and forces in Japan to keep them under a leash.

The Japanese have a bigger plan, to use Americans to fight the Chinese. The recent barrage of the Japanese woman PM against China is not a spurious no brainer act of a woman in power. It is well coordinated to provoke China to act and to drag the Americans in to defend Japan. The Japanese also read that they have to act now or China would be too power soon. This is the best time as Washington is infested with clowns, dimwits and warmongers and without a brain to tell them that it is dangerous to go to war with China. 

Japan will increase its provocation of China in the South China Sea, East China Sea and Taiwan. Once a conflict flares up, Japan would add fuel to the fire, join in the fray. Can the Americans not act? In an administration with saner and wiser men and women in charge, a war with China would not be easy. But you have lunatics like Trump, no brainer like Pete Hegseth, and a headless warhawk like Marco Rubio, the combination is deadly. And to add to this highly volatile crucible is a mamasan.

Not to worry. China, Russia and North Korea are all ready to meet the challenge.
