The US is not immune from the oversight and action of the rest of the world. [Even though We think We are]
The current US administration has again and again blocked the United Nations, The International Criminal Court, and its own US courts, as each of them try to stop the US extermination of a native group in the middle east. Ironically, we host the United Nations in the US, so it has been possible to refuse to let the Palestinians enter the US to attend meetings. This is awkward, because most of the nations of the world are accepting Palestine as a country, even though Israel has engulfed it's people, and now intends to kill all of them.
Israel is not just our ally. They are a satellite country of the US, and must do what we say. It is ridiculous to suggest that Israel is simply defending itself. Israel was founded in a strikingly similar way to the founding of the US. The Israelis were driven there as refugees. Both European Pilgrims and holocaust survivors gained a foothold in their new area, and then violently superimposed their 'country' right over the holdings of the native inhabitants.
In the early US and in early Israel, the natives were driven off the best land, and confined to ever-shrinking reservations/walled settlements. The US had famous wars with the Native Americans, and also tangled with the Mormons as they, in their own turn, were driven west by European expansion. But, over the decades and the centuries, both the Native Americans and the Mormons have been granted full citizenship. We stopped killing them!
The Israeli expansion has been different, because there was no loosely defended land that natives could move into when Israel occupied Palestine. The Palestinians were compacted or concentrated into unwanted areas within Israel, where they built low quality prison cities. In actuality, the 'Native Israelis' [If we can call the Palestinians that] are much more similar to their occupiers than Native Americans are similar to the typical European colonist. A White Europeans can easily be told from a Native American. But, Palestinians look like starved and frightened Jews. And Ex German Jews in Tel Aviv look like fat and relaxed Palestinians.
It is not good that this occupation has gone on since world war 2. There should have been enough time for the Palestinians to be fully integrated into the new country that had overlaid their own. It can not be said that the Native Americans have reached parity with their European occupiers. [It took 150 years for NAs to gain US citizenship.] Now, both NAs and LDS members hold land, vote, and have similar rights to other Americans. If some very bad crime happened on the Hopi reservation [I picked one of the most peace loving tribes for my silly example], we would not place the Navajos and Salt Lake city under siege, and bomb those areas until all buildings were rubble.
Enough time has elapsed, that we would not fight the LDS church, or the Navajo tribal police. There is no chance that we would encircle the Navajo reservation with a tall wall, and starve them to death while bombing their schools and hospitals and homes to complete destruction. We would use police, backed up by military, to root out those bad Hopis. We would not starve and bomb the civilian Hopis. We would understand that an armed criminal group can arise within a population. [It happened at the US capital!] It is not OK to murder all the civilians in a cultural group when a tiny faction of that group performs a terrorist act.
This is where we find ourselves. We Americans have funded and blocked the world from taking action against the siege and genocide of another countries displaced native population. The United Nations is likely to move out of the US because the country is no longer a good place for other nations to meet. We have begun a trade war with all nations including our long term allies. The trade war has forced our enemies and our former allies to be more friendly with one another. We have created sides for a world war. Our allies are the other far right wing dominated countries: Israel, Brazil, El Salvador, and several other countries that are currently ruled by corrupt rapists.
The US is being held by a far right minority, that has tricked the working class into paying for the ejection of millions of undocumented Americans. The US working class has lost health care and food assistance and education in order to build concentration camps and a large secret police force. If this sounds alarmist, please look on the news. For the first time in US history, the office of the president is ignoring the courts, and has actually pardoned thousands of people that tried to violently reverse a US election. For the very first time, the President has taken over the spending of tax money and the waging of war. The Senate and the House and the supreme court are all staffed with unqualified right wing flunkies who can be fired at a moments notice if they refuse a Trump order.
You can see other trends: California, Oregon and Washington have joined together to form a new health service that uses science and vaccines. How long will it be before these areas cease to pay taxes to an unfriendly federal government? A government that is currently sending troops from far right areas of the US [the new confederacy] to sanctuary cities [the new union]. This is a transparent and pathetic attempt to further divide the US population using simmering resentments left over from the US civil war.
It is impossible to ignore the similarities between Trump and Hitler. Trump was born a year after Adolf died. Trump has staged an overthrow of the election process, but was forgiven when it failed. Hitler staged an overthrow that failed, but he had to spend time in prison. Both guys developed a private army, and usurped power normally invested elsewhere in government. Both chose flawed lieutenants, guilty of the corruption and rape that they find very forgivable. Both despots selected scapegoat groups, starting with unpopular splinter groups, but proceeding on to more mainstream minorities. Where Hitler started with the Gays and the Gypsies and the blacks, Trumps has started with Transsexuals, because the gay or gay friendly population has exploded since 1940. For his Gypsies, he selected the criminals among the undocumented community. But, it was too hard to find criminals, so he had to send the new secret police to home depot, bus stops, active wildfires, immigration courts, and other places where workers can easily be encircled. Unfortunately, we are rounding up the workers and the law abiding immigrants that are working legally, going to their court dates, and playing strictly by the rules. And for his blacks, Trump has stuck with the African Americans. He has accepted illegal white migration from South Africa, but has discouraged legal immigration of darker skinned folk into the US. He sent troops to black lives matter protests, and forgave whites who broke into the capital, or who shot or drove a car into crowds of peaceful protesters.
It is hard to imagine Trump stepping down willingly before his death. It is nearly impossible to imagine him telling the truth, or passing up a billion dollar bribe. From his behavior to date, it is most likely that he will continue down the path blazed by Hitler: More secret police and prison camps; A widening scapegoat hunt; and eventually, a world war. My father, who is 93, will get to see 2 world wars!
Gaze at the destruction in Gaza, and realize that this will happen to us in the United States. One does not require an angry God to experience an healthy serving of what one has done to others. This is a feature of the human mind. When the human mind is filled with hate and greed, It is not possible to make good decisions. Further, it is not possible to win a war. The classic example is Hitlers insane decision to attack his ally Russia while he was loosing the fight against Europe and the US.
I predict a very long world war, starting with conventional weapons. It will move to tactical nukes, and then to a full ICBM war with naval battles and boots on the ground. My prediction is that those boots will stomp US cities, which will come to look similar to present day Gaza. I expect the war to loosely resemble ww2, with the US as Germany and Israel as Japan. I expect some of our allies to turn against us as happened when Russia changed sides in ww2.
We are in a state where we can not be trusted. The world has watched as the US election process was violently attacked, and then, as the attacker was reelected as president. Our allies have seen us attack them, with disruptive tariffs and crazy military stunts like the naval encirclement of Venezuela and the pointless and ineffective bombing of Iran. And, of course, everyone who has a phone or a tv can watch us frantically rounding up undocumented workers and asylum seekers in a very brutal and cruel manner. The Hyundai raid just occurred. Trump forced south Korea to build electric cars and batteries here to avoid absurd tariffs, and then performed a military style raid on the South Korean company after they had complied. One wonders how much Trump was paid by oil and car companies to hamper electric car manufacturing, and to slow down the installation of solar panels and wind mills.
I do not recommend that foreign companies give in to Trumps bullying. Instead, I suggest that any country that does not like our funding of the Gaza war, or our brutal round up of their countries citizens, cease bargaining with this current administration. Anyone who meets with Trump will be harmed. He is that toxic. It would be best to accept the tariffs, match them, and start winding up your business in the US. Get your workers and factories out of the US, [before they are nationalized or attacked]. You don't need amazon or meta or google. These companies were set up to concentrate your money into just a few US pockets. These companies are predatory, and will not be controlled by the current government because they paid to have them elected.
You will notice that American movies are often little more than US military propaganda, or brutal stories about American's abusing one another. Viewing such movies and social media, and using a biased search engine like google will infect you with the Greed and Hatred that currently afflicts the US people. Also, these companies will rip you off in an organized way. The US institutions that once policed companies and improved world health have been shut down. Our economy is collapsing pretty quickly as is our health system. We are taking from our own poorest citizens to build a vast network of secret police and concentration camps. We have reduced food and health programs to create even more deadly weapons. Don't join with us in our war frenzy and national paranoia. If we continue with this behavior, we will start a world war that will make ww2 seem brief and not very damaging. There will eventually be war crimes trials like the Nuremberg event, only they will be held in occupied Washington DC, or some other rubble filled US city. If we win the war, it will be even worse. All countries will become second class satellites of the US. You will be forced to speak English, and your kids will learn the absurd lies that we currently tell our own students. You will experience apartheid.
So, in summary, I hope that humans outside the US will watch us carefully but stay away. Buy nothing American, and do not view our divisive propaganda. [It will make you mentally ill, as it has done to us!] Do not parrot our media because it is no longer independent or truthful. Make your own news reports that show us our own brutality and greed. Please, do not fall into the same traps. let all your people vote, police your companies to prevent cheating and monopolies, and elect bridge builders and humanitarians instead of rapists and cheats. Get ready to defend yourselves. As the US collapse continues, we will have no option but to attack, and take your stuff.
