Commentary: Outlaw US Empire So-called National Security Strategy

MoA pal Don Bacon alerted me that the newly revised version of what's not at all what it says it is (War Strategy not Security) was released to the public as a PDF. His brief note included a tiny bit that backed his observation:

“In it, there is a presentation of US-Russia relations that lacks veracity. (Not to say there aren't more such.)

p. 25

The United States, under successive administrations, made considerable efforts at multiple points to reach out to Russia to limit our rivalry and identify pragmatic areas of cooperation. President Putin spurned these efforts and it is now clear he will not change.

Readers of the many articles I've posted to my wall ought to immediately know that's a very gross lie. It's as if those who compile these documents just write whatever they think fits their false reality. I wrote this in reply to Don:

Thanks for posting that snippet. What can you expect from strategy papers when you insist on lying to yourself about import facts? I was just about to read Global Times editorial on the subject, "US’ new national security report lack of creativity, full of viciousness," and there's an accompanying article too, "Biden's national security strategy hypes 'China challenge,' full of outdated confrontational mentality". Here's the editorial's opening paragraph:

"The White House on Wednesday released its new National Security Strategy (NSS). This is a routine of every US government and an important document that reflects and guides the incumbent government's internal affairs and diplomacy. But after reading the 48-page document, the international community generally feels a strong sense of unease and concern. The 'national security' pursued by the US will come at the expense of the security of other countries. If the path and direction stated in the report is followed, the superpower of the US will sooner or later go to the opposite side of world peace and stability, and the consequences will be unimaginable." [My Emphasis]

The writer continues:

"The release of the strategy report was delayed for several months due to the Russia-Ukraine crisis, but we did not see from the report that the US had deeply reflected on the root cause of the conflict, let alone learned any lessons. Instead, it further strengthened the camp confrontation and binary opposition mindset that led to the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine." [My Emphasis]

The writer then concentrates on the portion devoted to confronting China. But from just this little bit we can surmise that it's more of the same old shit poured into a new can. However, it appears that the writer needs to learn something about the Outlaw US Empire for he believes the Cold War ended:

"It has been 31 years since the end of the Cold War, but the political elites in Washington still have not learned to coexist with other countries in a new way."

IMO, it's China's fault for failing to realize the Outlaw US Empire will never give up its goal to dominate the world, and to also see that goal was inherited--if not stolen from--the Empire's Colonial mother: England. Why is it that China and other nations fail to see what they ought to be seeing? Well, to be fair, the writer does see many things as this portion reveals:

"The new report is a mirror, reflecting the selfishness, ambition and the deepest fears of Washington's political elites. In all its national strategy reports, Washington emphasizes US' 'leadership.' There is nothing wrong with ambition, but what does the US want to do by 'leading' the world? The report shows that the US is still trying to rope in one group and fight another, creating division and confrontation in this world....

"In its quest to suppress and contain China, Washington has lost its mind." [My Emphasis]

The other article provided this summary regarding China:

"Chinese experts said that the Biden administration's national security strategy basically continues the Trump-era position on China and is more of a summary of US action and intention.

"The strategy suggested that the US basically has three goals it wants to achieve in the future: limit China's development in the high-tech field; limit Chinese influence, promote ideological alliances, and prevent the success of the Chinese system from being widely recognized around the world; and make further provocations over the Taiwan question to trap China, experts noted." [My Emphasis]

I'm curious to see just how the bolded goal above was described and how it's to be accomplished. Given the overall continuity, I doubt Biden had any direct input despite BigLie Media saying otherwise, as with this example:

"CNBC believes that the Strategy generally functions 'more as an aspirational expression of a president's values than as a blueprint for military plans.'"

If that's actually the case, then Biden wants to become a War President; but then, he is already.

I'm certain someone from Russia's MFA will write a response which I'll provide when it's done. But we already have several replies made by President Putin over the last several days, including today's speech. Protests in France are now nationwide; we shall see if they travel beyond France's borders where they must. The new initiative expanding Turk Stream and creating an energy hub in Turkey has the required support. My current opinion about the Nord Streams is that the undamaged segment should remain idle while the entire strings of NS1 ought to be salvaged and the equipment either used in some other application or scrapped. The remaining pipelines should be idled awaiting the required political sea-change. As for the Baltics and Poland, I very much doubt their anti-Russian attitudes will change for several generations; so, until they mature politically, they should be allowed to stew in their own mess.

The German situation I see as similar to the Baltics and Poland since it's now become clear Germany's capitalists are unwilling to directly challenge the government since they're willing to offshore their production facilities, thus proving they aren't really German. As for all those Germans thrown out of work with no prospects of anything better, they need to look at their French comrades and revolt since their bosses have no spines. They must understand that this Winter won't be as bad as the next several unless the political landscape is soon drastically altered—for this Winter, some Russian gas was stored, but there won't be any coming for next Winter and those that follow.
