A “Color
Revolution” Is Under Way in the United States

- A Russian joke goes like this: “Question:
why can there be no color revolution in the United
States? Answer: because there are no US Embassies in the
United States.”
Funny, maybe, but factually wrong: I believe that a
color revolution is being attempted in the USA right
now.
Politico seems to feel the same way. See
their recent cover:
While I did predict that “The
USA is about to face the worst crisis of its history”
as far back as October of last year, a month before the
elections, I have to admit that I am surprised and
amazed at the magnitude of the struggle which we see
taking place before our eyes. It is now clear that
the Neocons did declare war on Trump and some, like
Paul Craig Roberts, believe that
Trump has now returned them the favor. I sure hope
that he is right.
Let’s look at one telling example:
US intelligence agencies are now investigating their
own boss! Yes,
according to recent reports, the FBI, CIA, National
Security Agency and Treasury Department are now
investigating the telephone conversations between
General Flynn and the Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyk.
According to Wikipedia, General Flynn is the former
- Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency
- Joint Functional Component Command for
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
- Chair of the Military Intelligence Board
- Assistant Director of National Intelligence
- Senior intelligence officer for the Joint
Special Operations Command.
He is also Trump’s National Security Advisor. In
other words, his security clearance is stratospherically
high and he will soon become the boss of all the US
intelligence services. And yet, these very same
intelligence services are investigating him for his
contacts with the Russian Ambassador. That is absolutely
amazing. Even in the bad old Soviet Union, the
putatively almighty KGB did not have the right to
investigate a member of the Communist Party Central
Committee without a special authorization of the
Politburo (a big mistake, in my opinion, but never mind
that). That roughly means that the top 500 members of
the Soviet state could not be investigated by the KGB at
all. Furthermore, such was the subordination of the KGB
to the Party that for common criminal matters the KGB
was barred from investigating any member of the entire
Soviet
Nomenklatura, roughly 3 million people (and even
bigger mistake!).
But in the case of Flynn, several US security
agencies can decide to investigate a man who by all
standards ought to be considered at least in the top 5
US officials and who clearly has the trust of the new
President. And that does not elicit any outrage,
apparently.
By the same logic, the three letter agencies might as
well investigate Trump for his telephone conversations
with Vladimir Putin.
Which, come to think of it, they might well do it
soon…
This is all absolutely crazy because this is evidence
that the US intelligence community has gone rogue and is
now taking its orders from the Neocons and their deep
state and not from the President and that these agencies
are now acting against the interests of the new
President.
In the meantime, the Soros crowd has already chosen a
color: pink. We now are witnessing the “pussyhat
revolution” as explained on this website. And
if you think that this is just a small fringe of lunatic
feminists, you would be quite wrong. For the truly
lunatic feminists the “subtle” hint about their “pussyhat
revolution” is too subtle, so they prefer making
their statement less ambiguous as the image on the right
shows.
This would all be rather funny, in a nauseating way I
suppose, if it wasn’t for the fact that the media,
Congress and Hollywood are fully behind this “100 days
of Resistance to Trump” which began by a, quote, “queer
dance party” at Mike Pence’s house.
This would be rather hilarious, if it was not for all
gravitas with which the corporate media is treating
these otherwise rather pathetic “protests”.
Watch how MCNBS’s talking head blissfully reporting
this event:
Listen carefully to what Moore says at 2:00. He says
that they will “celebrate the fact that Obama is still
the President of the United States” and the presstitute
replies to him, “yes he is” not once, but twice.
What are they talking about?! The fact
that Obama is still the President?!
How is it that Homeland Security and the FBI are not
investigating MCNBC and Moore for
rebellion and
sedition?
So far, the protests have not been too large, but
they did occur in various US cities and they were well
covered by the media:
Make no mistake, such protests are no more spontaneous
than the ones in the Ukraine. Somebody is paying for all
this, somebody is organizing it all. And they are using
their full bag of tricks. One more example:
Remember the
pretty face of
Nayirah, the Kuwaiti nurse who told Congress that
she had witnessed Iraqi soldiers tossing our babies from
Kuwaiti incubators (and who later turned out to be the
daughter of Saud Al-Sabah, the Kuwaiti ambassador to the
United States)? Do you remember the pretty face of
Neda, who “died
on TV” in Iran? Well, let me introduce you to Bana
Alabe, who
wrote a letter to President Trump and, of course,
the media got hold of the latter and now she is the
“face of the Syrian children”.
Want even more
proof?
Okay, click
here and take a look at a sampling of anti-Trump
caricatures and cartoons compiled by the excellent
Colonel Cassad. Some of them are quite remarkable. From
this nauseating collection, I will select just two:
The first one
clearly accuses Trump of being in the hands of Putin.
The second one make Trump the heir to Adolf Hitler and
strongly suggests that Trump might want to restart
Auschwitz. Translated into plain English this sends a
double message: Trump is not the legitimate President of
the USA and Trump is the ultimate Evil.
This goes far
beyond the kind of satire previous Presidents have ever
been subjected to.
My purpose in
listing all the examples above is to suggest the
following: far from having accepted defeat, the Neocons
and the US deep state have decided, as they always do,
to double-down and they are now embarking on a
full-scale “color revolution” which will only end with
the impeachment, overthrowal or death of Donald Trump.
One of the most
amazing features of this color revolution against Trump
is the fact that those behind it don’t give a damn about
the damage that their war against Trump does to the
institution of the President of the United States and,
really, to the United States as a whole. That damage is,
indeed, immense and the bottom line is this: President
Trump is in immense danger of being overthrown and his
only hope for survival is to strike back hard and fast.
The other
amazing thing is the ugly role Britain plays in this
process: all the worst filth against Trump is always
eventually traced back right to the UK. How come?
Simple. Do you recall how, formally at least, the CIA
and NSA did not have the right to spy on US nationals
and the British MI6 and GCHQ had no right to spy on
British nationals. Both sides found an easy way out:
they simply traded services: the CIA and NSA spied on
Brits, the MI6 and GCHQ spied on Americans, and then
they simply traded the data between “partners” (it
appears that since Obama came to power all these
measures have now become outdated and everybody is free
to spy on whomever the hell they want, including their
own nationals). The US Neocons and the US deep state are
now using the British special services to produce a
stream of filth against Trump which they then report as
“intelligence” and which then can be used by Congress as
a basis for an investigation. Nice, simple and
effective.
The
bottom line is this: President Trump is in immense
danger of being overthrown and his only hope for
survival is to strike back hard and fast.
Can he do that?
Until now I
have suggested several times that Trump deal with the US
Neocons the way Putin dealt with the oligarchs in
Russia: get them on charges of tax evasion, corruption,
conspiracy, obstruction of justice, etc. All that good
stuff which the US deep state has been doing for years.
The Pentagon and the Three Letter Agencies are probably
the most corrupt entities on the planet and since they
have never been challenged, never mind punished, for
their corruption, they must have become fantastically
complacent about how they were doing things, essentially
counting on the White House to bail them out in case of
problems. The main weapons used by these circles are the
numerous secrecy laws which protect them from public and
Congressional scrutiny. But here Trump can use his most
powerful card: General Flynn who, as former director of
the DIA and current National Security Advisor to the
President will have total access. And if he doesn’t – he
can create it, if needed by sending special forces to
ensure “collaboration”.
However, I am
now beginning to think that this might not be enough.
Trump has a much more powerful weapon he can unleash
against the Neocon: 9/11.
Whether Trump
knew about it before or not, he is now advised by people
like Flynn who must have known for years that 9/11 was
in inside job. And if the actual number of people
directly implicated in the 9/11 operation itself was
relatively small, the number of people which put their
full moral and political credibility behind the 9/11
official narrative is immense. Let me put it this way:
while 9/11 was a US “deep state” operation (probably
subcontracted for execution to the Israelis), the entire
Washington “swamp” has been since “9/11 accomplice after
the fact” by helping to maintain the cover-up. If this
is brought into light, then thousands of political
careers are going to crash and burn into the scandal.
9/11 was a
collective crime par excellence. A few men
actually executed it, but then thousands, possibly tens
of thousands, have used their position to execute the
cover-up and to prevent any real investigation. They are
ALL guilty of obstruction of justice. By opening a new
investigation into 911, but one run by the Justice
Department and NOT by Congress, Trump could literally
place a “political handgun” next to the head of each
politician and threaten to pull the trigger if he does
not immediately give up on trying to overthrow Trump.
What Trump needs for that is a 100% trusted and 100%
faithful man as the director of the FBI, a man with “clean
hands, a cool head and a burning heart” (to use the
expression of the founder of the Soviet Secret Police,
Felix Dzerzhinsky). This man will immediately find
himself in physical danger so he will have to be a man
of great personal courage and determination. And, of
course, this “man” could be a woman (a US equivalent of
the Russian prosecutor, Natalia Poklonskaia).
I fully
understand that danger of what I am suggesting as any
use of the “9/11 weapon” will, of course, result in an
immense counter-attack by the Neocons and the deep
state. But here is the deal: the latter are already dead
set in impeaching, overthrowing or murdering Donald
Trump. And, as Putin once said in an interview, “if you
know that a fight is inevitable, then strike first!”.
You think that
all is this over the top? Consider what is at stake.
First, at the
very least, the Trump Presidency itself: the Neocons and
the US deep state will not let Trump implement his
campaign promises and program. Instead they will
sabotage, ridicule and misrepresent everything he does,
even if this is a big success.
Second, it
appears that Congress now has the pretext to open
several different congressional investigations into
Donald Trump. If that is the case, it will be easy for
Congress to blackmail Trump and constantly threaten him
with political retaliation if he does not “get with the
program”.
Third, the
rabid persecution of Trump by the Neocons and the deep
state is weakening the institution of the Presidency.
For example, the latest crazy notion
floated by some politicians is to “prohibit the
President of the United States from using nuclear
weapons without congressional authorization except when
the United States is under nuclear attack.” From a
technical point of view, this is nonsense, but what it
does is send the following signal to the rest of the
planet: “we, in Congress, believe that our Commander in
Chief cannot be trusted with nuclear weapons.” Never
mind that they would trust Hillary with the same nukes
and never mind that Trump could use only conventional
weapons to trigger a global nuclear war anyway (by, for
example, a conventional attack on the Kremlin), what
they are saying is that the US President is a lunatic
that cannot be trusted. How can they then expect him to
be take seriously on any topic?
Fourth, can you
just imagine what will happen if the anti-Trump forces
are successful?! Not only will democracy be totally and
terminally crushed inside the USA, but the risks of war,
including nuclear, will simply go through the roof.
There is much
more at stake here than just petty US politics.
Every time I
think of Trump and every time I look at the news I
always come back to the same anguished thought: will
Trump have the intelligence to realize the fact that he
is under attack and will he have the courage to strike
back hard enough?
I don’t know.
I have a great
deal of hopes for General Flynn. I am confident that he
understands the picture perfectly and knows exactly what
is going on. But I am not sure that he has enough pull
with the rest of the armed forces to keep them on the
right side should a crisis happen. Generally, “regular”
military types don’t like intelligence people. My hope
is that Flynn has loyal allies at SOCOM and JSOC as, at
the end of the day, they will have the last say as to
who occupies the White House. The good news here is that
unlike regular military types, special forces and
intelligence people are usually very close and used to
work together (regular military types also dislike
special forces). SOCOM and JSOC will also know how to
make sure that the CIA doesn’t go rogue.
Last but not
least, my biggest hope is that Trump will use the same
weapon Putin used against the Russian elites: the
support of the people. But for that task, Twitter is
simply not good enough. Trump needs to go the “RT route”
and open his own TV channel. Of course, this will be
very hard and time consuming, and he might have to begin
with an Internet-based only channel, but as long as
there is enough money there, he can make it happen. And,
just like RT, it needs to be multi-national, politically
diverse (including anti-Empire figures who do not
support Trump) and include celebrities.
One of the many
mistakes made by Yanukovich in the Ukraine was that he
did not dare to fully use the legal instruments of power
to stop the neo-Nazis. And to the degree that he used
them, it was a disaster (like when the riot cops beat up
student demonstrators). After listening to a few
interviews of Yanukovich and of people near him during
those crucial hours, it appears that Yanukovich simply
did not feel that he had a moral right to use violence
to suppress the street. We will never now if what truly
held him back are moral principles of basic cowardice,
but what is certain is that he betrayed his people and
his country when he refused to defend real democracy and
let the “street” take over replacing democracy with
ochlocracy (mob rule). Of course, real ochlocracy does
not exists, all mobs are always controlled by
behind-the-scenes forces who unleash them just long
enough to achieve their goals.
The forces
which are currently trying to impeach, overthrow or
murder President Trump are a clear and present danger to
the United States as a country and to the US Federal
Republic. They are, to use a Russian word, a type of
“non-system” opposition which does not want to accept
the outcome of the elections and which by rejecting this
outcome essentially oppose the entire political system.
I am not a US
citizen (I could, but I refuse that citizenship on
principle because I refuse to take the required oath of
allegiance) and the only loyalty I owe the USA is the
one of a guest: never to deliberately harm it in any way
and to obey its laws. And yet it turns my stomach to see
how easy it has been to turn millions of Americans
against their own country. I write a lot about
russophobia on this blog, but I also see a deep-seated
“Americanophobia” or “USophobia” in the words and
actions who today say that Trump is not their President.
To them, they micro-identity as a “liberal” or as a
“gay” or as “African-American” means more than the very
basic fundamental principles upon which this country has
been built. When I see these crowds of Trump-bashers I
see pure, seething hatred not of the AngloZionist
Empire, or of a plutocracy masquerading as a democracy,
but a hatred of what I would call the “simple America”
or the “daily America” – the simple people amongst whom
I have now lived for many years and learned to respect
and appreciate and whom the Clinton-bots only think of
as “deplorables”.
It amazes me to
see that the US pseudo-elites have as much hatred,
contempt and fear of the American masses as the Russian
pseudo-elites have hatred, contempt and fear of the
Russian masses (the Russian equivalent or Hillary’s
“deplorables” would be a hard to pronounce for English
speakers word “быдло“,
roughly “cattle”, “lumpen” or “rabble”). It amazes me to
see that the very same people which have demonized Putin
for years are now demonizing Trump using exactly the
same methods. And if their own country has to go down in
their struggle against the common people – so be it!
These self-declared elites will have no compunction
whatsoever to destroy the nation their have been
parasitizing and exploiting for their own class
interest. They did just that to Russia exactly 100 years
ago, in 1917. I sure hope that they will not get away
with that again in 2017.
