 this write makes a case for intentional disruption by the empire as its only remaining potentially successful tactic as its other attempts at control are obviously failing;


The mainstream media are divided between two ways of interpreting the fall of Kabul. For some, the Democrats are cowards and the departure from Afghanistan discourages the allies. For others, they have played well and placed a thorn in the side of the Russians and the Chinese. These two views correspond to the traditional paradigm of the American Empire. But for Thierry Meyssan, Washington is, since September 11, 2001, in the hands of the followers of the Rumsfeld/Cebrowski doctrine. The United States is now behaving like a racketeer.

Russian, Chinese and European companies who wish to do so will be able to mine in Afghanistan, but only if they entrust their security to the US forces. Those who refuse this protection will be eliminated.69.3% of US voters disapprove of the way President Biden is conducting military operations in Afghanistan. Poll: Trafalgar Group

The fall of Kabul is leading to terrible scenes of flight and despair.

What we are seeing is a debacle that should make us lose faith in the power of ’America’.

 51% of Americans disapprove of President Joe Biden’s foreign policy.

63% say the war was not worth fighting [1].
Almost all Americans who fought in Iraq are very shocked.

Yet, at worst, it is clear that Washington knew perfectly well that the Afghan army would not stand up to the Taliban, who were theoretically three times less numerous and much less well equipped. The West Point CTC published a study in January to predict this catastrophe [2]. The question was not whether the Taliban would win, but when President Biden would let them win...........read more.........
