Senator
Chuck Schumer (D, NY) says Tillerson’s firing indicates that the Trump
administration is disintegrating. I understand why Senator Schumer sees it that
way, expecially following all the other dismissals and resignations.
I
see it differently. The firing of Secretary of State Tillerson, the movement of
CIA Director Pompeo to Secretary of State, and the promotion of Gina Haspel,
who oversaw the secret CIA torture prisons in Thailand https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/02/us/politics/cia-deputy-director-gina-haspel-torture-thailand.html,
indicate that the military/security complex has closed its grip on the Trump
regime (just like they co-opted Reagan). There will be no more talk of normalizing relations with Russia.
The
combination of the Israel Lobby, the neoconservatives, and the
military/security complex have proven to be too powerful for peace to be
established between the two nuclear powers. If you look at Trump’s
administration, the above three forces are those in charge.
Israel
remains determined to use the US military to destabilize Syria and Iran in
order to isolate Hezbollah and cut off the milita’s support and supplies. The
neoconservatives both support Israel’s interest and their own desire for
Washington’s hegemony over the world. The military/security complex intends to
hold on to the “Russia threat” as a justification of its budget and power.
The
presstitutes are in complete harmony with the scheme. Although Russiagate has
been proven to be false charges orchestrated by the DNC, FBI, and CIA, the
presstitutes continue to repeat the charges as if evidence exists that proves
the charges to be true. The “stolen election” is fiction turned into fact.
Having
served in Washington for a quarter century and having known members of the
British government, I do not believe that any of them believe the Russiagate. What is happening is that an agenda has taken
precedence over truth.
This
is an extremely dangerous agenda. Washington and its vassals
persist in making violent and false charges and threats against Russia, Iran,
and on occasion China. Russia, Iran, and China know that these charges are
false. Confronting an endless string of false and hostile charges, they prepare
for war.
The
world is being driven to war, which would be nuclear, by a tiny minority: neoconservatives, and the US military/security complex. We
are witnessing the most reckless and irresponsible behavior in world history.
Where are the voices against it?
