PREFATORY NOTE BY THE EDITOR
PREFATORY NOTE The cause, notes Garland, is that reality cannot be denied with impunity. At the end of the day, artillery rounds are always more persuasive than mere tweets; propaganda eventually cannot win wars, it can't assure victories in the battleground against a disciplined, highly capable and extremely well-armed and motivated enemy. As defeats that cannot be easily hidden or excused accumulate, the Neocons' ability to penetrate all key spheres of Anglo-American power may shrink, although this does not signify that these characters will actually suffer any kind of penalty, especially banishment from such precincts. The key to their resilience lies in the congruency of Neocon goals with the broader US imperialist agendas, objectives widely shared among the US ruling class. This simple fact has permitted them to benefit from easy access to the establishment's media, funding sources, think-tanks and academia, as well as the US open and secret "security" industry, both inside and outside the government (which in the US is really a continuum), not to mention the political class (where they have influential representation). So like "uber exceptionalists" the Neocons have pushed their deranged warmongering and Russophobia to the fullest, usually avoiding personal consequences. Yet, by doing this, by riding America's immense hubris and deeply embedded exceptionalism, the Neocons, with plenty of encouragement from the MICIMATT (Military-Industrial-Counter-Intelligence-Media-Academia-Think Tank complex), have acted as historical "accelerants" to the policy of "reality denialism" —a form of national blindness—that is finally catching up with the US after this country offshored most of its industrial power, and degraded its onetime solid military base, both errors flowing from America's virulent capitalist culture ("The business of America is business"). As history records it, this myopic posture always privileges profits and greed over human or even national strategic needs. It is also the road to massive criminality in foreign policy. That's why the anglos had no compunction in blowing up the NordStream pipelines. Decoupling Germany permanently from Eurasia is a prime American goal. But guess what, folks, as Garland warns, even in the rotten, pusillanimous German leadership personified by Herr Scholtz, there's a glimmer of hope. Some nationalist forces, finally seeing where America is going with the de-industrialisation of Germany and evisceration of her sovereignty, are apparently pushing back. So, just for the time being, and to the chagrin of the sociopathic Neocons, Herr Scholtz is saying "No". Stay tuned. History is accelerating. But it also can pack more disagreeable surprises. —PG

^3000US citizens have no real political representation.
We don't live in a democracy. And our freedom is disappearing fast.
I don't want to be ruled by hypocrites, whores, and war criminals.
What about you? Time to push back against the corporate oligarchy.
And its multitude of minions and lackeys.
