VS moordmachine weer in handen van 'volwassen en bekwame leiding'

Nu het wel zeker is dat Biden de VS presidentsverkiezingen heeft gewonnen, zullen de Democraten met geen letter meer reppen dat Rusland de presidentsverkiezingen heeft gemanipuleerd, zoals de Democraten en de regulere (massa-) media 4 jaar lang hebben geschreeuwd en dat gesteund door een groot deel van andere westerse politici en de media in die landen...….. Nog maar een paar maanden geleden liet Kamala Harris, de nieuwe vicepresident van de VS, op CNN weten dat Russische bemoeienis Biden de verkiezingen zou kunnen kosten..... Zonder enig bewijs deed Harris haar uitlatingen, maar zoals Aaron Maté in een Twitterbericht opmerkte: wie wil de details nog kennen? Nu Biden heeft gewonnen zullen we met geen letter meer horen over Russische manipulaties, zo vervolgde Maté...... (in mijn woorden, maar daar komt het wel op neer)

CaitlinJohnstone, de schrijver van het hieronder opgenomen artikel, stelt dat elke Russische agent in de VS, elke trol in Sint Petersburg, elke Russische hacker die het met z'n allen de klokrond hadden voorzien op de zogenaamde democratie in de VS, 'poef' plotseling niet meer bestaan...... Russiagate werd in de lucht gehouden en dat in weerzin van alle bewijzen dat dit een opgeklopte leugen was...... Een leugen waarmee Hillary Clinton haar misadige handelen wilde verdoezelen >> het op een smerige (beter gezegd: misdadige) manier stelen van de voorverkiezingen in 2016 ten koste van Bernie Sanders.....)

Als de Russen werkelijk de verkiezingen zouden hebben gemanipuleerd, zoals het VS volk (en ook ons) 4 jaar lang werd voorgehouden door politici en media en waar dit in de VS zelfs als een oorlogsdaad werd bestempeld, vergelijkbaar met 9/11 en Pearl Harbor, zou het niet uit hebben moeten maken wie de verkiezingen had gewonnen, een dergelijke grote en grove inmenging in binnenlandse politiek van de VS (en andere landen*) zou een grote zaak blijven, echter nu Biden heeft gewonnen hoor je zelfs geen piep meer die daarnaar verwijst, zo vervolgt Caitlin volkomen terecht......

Wel is Chinagate nu in opkomst en wacht maar, als Trump eindelijk zal toegeven de verkiezingen te hebben verloren, zal hij China de schuld geven, zoals een aantal van de Republikeinen nu al doen...... Benieuwd of Ollongren, de AIVD en de MIVD binnenkort ook komen met China als nieuwe manipulator van de Nederlandse verkiezingen, al maken ze zichzelf dan nogmaals volkomen belachelijk niet alleen omdat het een leugen is, maar vanwege een al eerder geuite beschuldiging aan het adres van Rusland dat de Nederlandse verkiezingen in maart volgend jaar al zou manipuleren...... ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! Hoe gek moet je zijn om met dergelijke onzin het volk te manipuleren, want dat is het, i.p.v. de Russen die onze verkiezingen manipuleren, zijn het juist de roepers van die valse boodschap die met hun leugens plus hun angst- en haatzaaierij de boel manipuleren, iets waar de reguliere media hier maar al te graag aan aan meedoen........ (als Rusland hier werkelijk de boel manipuleert, zouden het ook de Russen moeten zijn die van de disfunctionerende VVD leugenaar en premier Rutte een held hebben gemaakt [althans dat is hij volgens de zogenaamd onafhankelijke media], ofwel Rutte is een Russische agent!! ha! ha! ha! ha!)

Met het verlies van Trump wordt er nu gesteld dat de kinderen het Witte Huis zullen verlaten en volwassenen die plek weer zullen innemen.... Caitlin is het eens met deze uitspraak en stelt (heerlijk sarcastisch) dat het nu gelukkig volwassenen zullen zijn die oorlogen beginnen tegen landen waar de VS niets te zoeken heeft..... Vergeet de woorden van Biden niet die Trump zwakte verweet in het optreden tegen landen als Venezuela en Iran...... Biden heeft dan ook beloofd dat hij een meer assertieve (lees: agressieve) buitenlandpolitiek zal voeren tegen de twee genoemde landen, uiteraard weer in totaal andere bewoordingen dan ik hier gebruik...... Waaruit je kan concluderen dat een nog agressievere aanpak van Iran en Venezuela maar één ding kan betekenen: weer twee illegale oorlogen van de VS tegen landen waar deze terreurentiteit, ofwel het Vierde Rijk, niets te zoeken heeft........

Lees het artikel van Caitlin en zie wie de volgende president van de VS werkelijk is, een uiterst gevaarlijke man, die af en toe bijna dementerend bezig is, een man die straks achter de grote knop van een kernoorlog zit.......

US Murder Machine Now Under Competent Management

by Caitlin Johnstone

ha! ha! ha! Met die maskers (zonder afstand te houden en zelfs met vastpakken van handen) lijken de twee wel boeven die net succesvol een bank hebben beroofd.

Joe Biden's inauguration as the 46th president of the United States is now all but certain.

In order to have any chance of successfully advancing his legal narrative of electoral shenanigans President Trump would have to both (A) really want to remain president and (B) have the backing of sufficiently large power structures, neither of which appear to be the case. When you're a Republican president and Murdoch is actively fighting against you, it doesn't matter what the facts are. The narrative war is lost. Trump is done.

Two months ago, Kamala told CNN that Russian interference -- undefined, of course, because who needs details? -- could cost Biden the election. Since Biden won, expect us to now hear zilch about "Russian interference." It's outlived its partisan utility. 

Embedded video

[Forrest Gump voice:] And just like that, the Russians were gone.

Every Kremlin agent hiding under every bed, every Saint Petersburg troll lurking around every corner, every Russian hacker we've been told was working around the clock to destroy America's imaginary democracy--poof! We're not hearing a word about them anymore.

If the Russians had really been trying to influence this election, as we've been told for years they most definitely would, and if foreign election interference really is an act of war comparable to 9/11 and Pearl Harbor, as we've been told for years that it is, then it should be just as big a deal regardless of which candidate win. Yet we're not hearing a peep on the subject from the blue-checkmarked commentariat who've been shrieking about the Russian menace for four years.

We have, oh so very predictably, been hearing a fair bit about China though.

The Chinese Communist Party is celebrating.

Because they interfered in this election and think they’ve won. https://twitter.com/chenweihua/status/1324686280366690307

President Trump puts America first.

If Biden Wins, Russiagate Will Magically Morph Into Chinagate

"Ohhh god. It’s happening again."https://caityjohnstone.medium.com/if-biden-wins-russiagate-will-magically-morph-into-chinagate-bbb7484c58d6 

Liberals are heaving a sigh of relief around the country, not because their actual lives have gotten much worse as a result of Trump's presidency (they have not), but because it means at long last they'll stop being psychologically abused by the mass media who've been screaming hysterical nonsense in their faces and making them feel crazy.

Bit by bit cautious celebrations are beginning to erupt from coast to coast (okay maybe just the coasts) as Biden's January inauguration becomes less of a possibility and more of a certainty. It's not the thunderous rejoicing it will be when they make it official, but little expressions of glee are popping up everywhere. Kids are being hugged. Parents are being called. Bold tie choices are being made.

When Trump was elected, I decided I’d only wear black ties. It was a personal and private act of mourning. I didn’t say anything about it. And almost no one noticed over these past four years.

Today....

"At long last there will be adults in the White House again!" goes the common refrain.

And I couldn't agree more! I think we're all breathing a lot easier knowing that the US government will now be run by grown-ups who murder people instead of emotionally stunted children who murder people. We'll all sleep so much better knowing that there are adults in the room who murder people, and that the insatiable US murder monster is under competent management once more.

And make no mistake, murdering people is what the Biden administration will be doing.

This will in fact be the only president in recent memory who actually campaigned on being more interventionist and attacking his opponent for not being hawkish enough. Trump ran on a platform of scaling back US interventionism, as did Obama, as did even Bush, but Biden did the opposite. He is beginning from a much more hawkish position than he predecessors right off the bat.

Add to this the bloodthirsty ghouls who appear likely to wind up in Biden's cabinet and the hawkish rhetoric of his foreign policy advisors, and you're likely looking at a president who will serve as an empty vessel for whatever the US war machine wants to pour into him. Mass murders are being planned, and it's going to get ugly.

Vote Biden, for a Competent Imperialism. https://twitter.com/brhodes/status/1318180765000060928 

It's odd, you know. US political leaders are so revered by the media and so normalized on our screens that it's easy to forget how many children they've killed. You see the doddering old man eating ice cream enough times and it becomes difficult to marry him in your mind with the butcher who played a crucial leading role in advancing the Iraq invasion which killed a million people and ushered in an unprecedented new age of military expansionism.

But the important thing is that he won't be making rude tweets and bungling coup attempts in the Global South. He will be a Competent Grown-Up, like the daddy we always wanted. He will pilot the insatiable death machine with grace and decency, right into the homes of the world's most vulnerable.

* De Russen zouden immers, om er een paar te noemen, ook de Brexit, het Oekraïne referendum in ons land en het onafhankelijkheidsreferendum in Catalonië hebben gemanipuleerd..... Als je alles op een rijtje zet en daarbij voor wat Nederland betreft de woorden van D66 minister en volksoplichter Ollongren, de AIVD en de MIVD weer leest en beluistert, moet je oppassen niet in een lachstuip van een uur te belanden, wat een immense flauwe kul!!

Zie ook: 'Joe Biden president, echter de peperdure campagne was zo slecht dat de senaat in handen blijft van de Republikeinen.......'

'Joe Biden de nieuwe president van de VS'

Democratische Conventie: niet één woord over Russiagate domweg omdat het een leugen is

Tijdens de gehele Democratische Conventie van 17 t/m 20 augustus, viel letterlijk niet één keer het woord 'Russiagate', terwijl de Democraten het de laatste 4 jaar wel 1.000 keer werd uitgespuugd door de hypocriete politici van die partij. Logisch dat men er nu maar mee is gestopt, immers het is bewezen flauwekul en alleen door de partij in stelling gebracht om Hillary Clinton uit de wind te houden, die op een smerige manier de voorverkiezingen van de Democraten in 2016 heeft gewonnen, ofwel: zij heeft destijds de voorverkiezingen gestolen ten koste van Bernie Sanders......

Een lid van Clintons verkiezingsteam, Seth Rich was zo pissig over de handelswijze van Clinton en de top van dat team, dat hij een enorme stapel mails van Clinton doorspeelde naar Wikileaks...... Een paar weken later werd Rich vermoord op straat gevonden, volgens de politie een roofmoord, hoe vreemd dan dat er werkelijk niets was gestolen van Rich, terwijl hij ook opzichtig dure sieraden droeg....... (bovendien waarom zou je iemand 2 maal in de rug schieten als je deze wilt ontdoen van diens kostbaarheden en geld??)

Nee, i.p.v. een Russische agent, bleek Trump de figuur die een enorme legermacht heeft samengetrokken langs delen van de Russische westgrens, waarbij hij nu ook nog de beschikking heeft over een raketschild 'tegen Iran' maar waarvan de raketten in een mum van tijd kunnen worden voorzien van meerdere kernkoppen en dat op raketten die tot 5.000 kilometer kunnen vliegen, waardoor steden als Moskou en Sint-Petersburg vanaf de voordeur van Rusland kunnen worden geraakt met kernraketten.... 

Met dat schild heeft de Trump administratie het INF-verdrag geschonden, iets waarvan de VS en haar oorlogshond NAVO Rusland volkomen ten onrechte beschuldigden....... (Rusland zou nieuwe raketten hebben die volgens de VS onder dat verdrag vallen, echter op meerdere uitnodigingen van het Kremlin om te komen inspecteren ging de VS niet in, daar de duivelse Trump administratie dondersgoed wist en weet dat Rusland de waarheid sprak......)

Lees het volgende artikel van Caitlin Johnstone die dieper op deze zaak ingaat en onder andere de stelling van Max Blumenthal steunt dat Russiagate een manier was om Trump zo onder druk te zetten dat hij wapens leverde aan Oekraïne (ben het daar deels mee eens, zeker daar ook wordt gesteld dat Obama Oekraïne niet wilde bewapenen, terwijl zijn minister van BuZa Joe Biden dat land onder druk zette het strafrechtelijk onderzoek tegen zijn corrupte zoon te stoppen, daar men anders een levering van wapens uit de VS kon vergeten):   

Dem Convention Made No Mention Of Russiagate Or Impeachment, Because They Were Fake

Caitlin Johnstone <donotreply@wordpress.com>


The only interesting thing about either of the conventions held by America's two mainstream political parties this month was not anything that was said by the interminable parade of vapid speakers, but rather what those speakers did not say.

Despite their dominating mainstream news cycles for years on end, at no time during the four-day Democratic National Convention was the word "impeachment" ever uttered, nor was any mention made of the Mueller investigation into allegations of collusion between Trump and the Russian government.
Politico reports:
Eight months after Democrats mounted a historic effort to remove Donald Trump from office, not a single speaker uttered the word “impeachment” during their four-day convention.
...
For Democrats to completely omit impeachment from their convention was once unthinkable. Democrats had mounted a case that Trump had abused his power to blackmail Ukraine into investigating his political adversaries, including Biden. And they made an existential argument that without removing him from office, Trump’s behavior would get worse and democracy itself would be at risk.
...
Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia — which Democrats once thought could topple Trump for obstruction of justice — also went unmentioned, even as it was a defining feature of Trump’s nearly four years in office.
  
At DNC, "the word 'impeachment' [was] entirely left out over the course of the 4-night event. Mueller’s investigation of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia... also went unmentioned, even as it was a defining feature of Trump’s nearly 4 years in office." https://t.co/Dgt9WQ3LeA pic.twitter.com/q8EvEthwZq
Aaron Maté (@aaronjmate) August 28, 2020

"The fact that Democrats couldn't bring themselves to even mention Russiagate or Ukrainegate (the first-ever sequel to a flop?) at their convention should maybe hasten some reflection for those who made these issues the 'defining feature of Trump's nearly four years in office,'" quipped incisive Russiagate skeptic Aaron Maté of the omission on Twitter.

"Next on Unsolved Mysteries: Democrats and media allies accused Donald Trump of being a Russian agent for four years," Maté added. "They chanted 'All Roads Lead to Putin' and 'The Walls Are Closing In.' But at their political convention, they forgot all about it. Did Russia give them amnesia?"

"I personally feel like if the President of the US seeking re-election is beholden to and controlled by an adversarial foreign power, the opposition party should find a few seconds to squeeze in a mention of it if, you know, it wasn't utter bullshit," tweeted The Intercept's Glenn Greenwald.

And, of course, it was utter bullshit. And that is indeed why the Democrats saw no need to mention it at their own four-day convention despite dominating news cycles with it for years. Russiagate and Ukrainegate were never the cataclysmic scandals that the Democrats and their allied media factions portrayed them as. They weren't even actually about getting rid of Trump.




In an extremely strange and confounding development, the Democrats *never once* mentioned what this NYT columnist calls "the biggest lie in American politics" at their Convention.

In fairness, they only had 4 full nights so maybe they couldn't squeeze in any mention of it. https://twitter.com/michelleinbklyn/status/1295743070672162821

Anyone with an ear to the ground knew that Russiagate would fizzle, and anyone capable of counting Senate seats knew impeachment would fail to remove Trump. The drivers of these attention-monopolizing narratives knew this also.

If there'd been any solid evidence to find that the Kremlin was blackmailing Trump, or that his campaign had conspired with the Russian government to steal the 2016 election, the US intelligence community would have found some of it and leaked it to The Washington Post long before Trump took office. The Russiagate narrative has been completely dismantled from the very beginning by journalists like the late Robert Parry, and then Maté after Parry's death. There was never any real evidence for it, and the people pushing Russiagate from the beginning knew there was never any real evidence for it.

All you really need to know about Russiagate was that it was started by unsubstantiated claims by the US intelligence community, and in the end it facilitated pre-existing plans by the US intelligence community. Everything else in between those two points is just empty narrative fluff.

In 2017 Parry documented how the original assessment that Russia meddled in the US election in the first place was put forward without proof by just a couple dozen officers from three intelligence agencies hand-picked by the notoriously Russophobic then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. Maté has documented that this allegation remains just as suspicious and porous as the day it was first made. Despite having sweeping investigative powers Mueller indicted not one single American for conspiracy with the Russian government. The recent evidence-free Senate Select Committee on Intelligence report did nothing to change the flimsy nature of the entire Russiagate narrative.


So the whole thing has been plainly bogus from the beginning, with the foundation laid by secretive and unaccountable intelligence agencies who have an extensive history of lying about exactly this sort of thing. And it just so happens to have paved the way for operations against a longtime geostrategic foe that were being unfolded well before Trump's arrival in 
the White House.

This is an excerpt from an article by legendary Australian journalist John Pilger from March 2016:
In the last eighteen months, the greatest build-up of military forces since World War Two -- led by the United States -- is taking place along Russia's western frontier.  Not since Hitler invaded the Soviet Union have foreign troops presented such a demonstrable threat to Russia.
Ukraine - once part of the Soviet Union -  has become a CIA theme park. Having orchestrated a coup in Kiev, Washington effectively controls a regime that is next door and hostile to Russia: a regime rotten with Nazis, literally. Prominent parliamentary figures in Ukraine are the political descendants of the notorious OUN and UPA fascists. They openly praise Hitler and call for the persecution and expulsion of the Russian speaking minority.
This is seldom news in the West, or it is inverted to suppress the truth.
In Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia -- next door to Russia - the US military is deploying combat troops, tanks, heavy weapons. This extreme provocation of the world's second nuclear power is met with silence in the West.

This was all happening during the Obama administration. But he was still more doveish than the spooks and cold warriors who drive US foreign policy would prefer, resisting for example loud calls from the warmongers to arm Ukraine against Moscow and forcibly install a no-fly zone in Russia's ally Syria.

The heir apparent to Obama's throne, Hillary Clinton, did not suffer from such peacenik scruples. She'd already been making people on both sides of the aisle nervous with her anti-Russia hawkishness, and supported both arming Ukraine and installing a no-fly zone in Syria.

So these escalations were already underway, and more were being prepared for.

Then what happened? Somehow a political neophyte who'd been talking about making nice with Russia got in instead.


We suddenly found ourselves bombarded with narratives from the US intelligence community and its mass media stenographers about Russian election meddling and Trump playing some mysterious role in it. These narratives were pushed with steadily increasing frequency and shrillness, with the help of a humiliated Democratic Party that stood everything to gain by participating, until those of us who expressed any skepticism of them at all were being accused on a daily basis by MSM-brainwashed dupes of running psyops for the Russian government.

We were never at any time presented with any proof of these claims which rose anywhere near the level required in a post-Iraq invasion world, but we were hammered with them anyway, day in and day out, year after year.

This ended up putting a lot of political pressure on Trump to keep existing sanctions and military tensions with Russia, and he ended up adding dozens more new cold war escalations including further sanctions, shredded nuclear treaties, NATO expansionism and more. He even armed Ukraine due to these pressures, just like the anointed queen was scheduled to do.




For years, neocons and arms industry darlings like @RepAdamSchiff have sought to re-arm Ukraine and escalate the conflict in Donbas. By stirring up Russiagate, they finally got their deadly deal. My latest: https://www.truthdig.com/articles/russiagate-helped-secure-dangerous-arms-deal/ 
The cold warriors wanted their escalations, and they got them. From beginning to the end, that's all this was ever about. They pushed the narratives, the media joined in because it was great for ratings, and the Democrats joined in because it took the focus off their 2016 scandals and gave them a kayfabe phantom to punch instead of pushing for actual progressive changes.

And now the slow motion third world war between the US-centralized power alliance and the loose collective of unabsorbed governments is right on schedule, with Biden all set and ready to carry the omnicidal torch forward. The 2016 scandals are well enough forgotten, no progressive changes have been made, and there is no need to talk about Russiagate or impeachment at the Democratic National Convention.

Because everyone already got what they wanted. Everyone except ordinary people, of course.
