Anders Fogh Rasmussen is a person we don’t want to get our hands dirty with. Not since Jens Otto Krag has this unhappy country had a bigger ninny in the post of Prime Minister. He is the typical democratic politician who has never had the country’s welfare in mind, but only his own “career”.
When, by the stupidity of the voters and for lack of better, he was re-elected a third time, according to press reports, he instructed his officials to find him an international position so that he could advance in his ‘career’. A man of any decent character would have been honored by the unprecedented trust placed in him by the electorate and would have made every effort not to disappoint them. A leader would have been passionate about his idea and delighted to see it realized. But Anders Fogh Rasmussen is not a leader, he is a self-serving careerist, and he scrapped his original, not unreasonable ideas of a limited government without a second thought because he didn’t think they had enough votes. The easiest path to power was the one Anders took, and since he had far greater goals than the prime ministership of this apparently, in his opinion, ridiculously small country that was far too small to accommodate his ambitions, he took the path of war early on behalf of his great role model, the USA.
He deceived the public and led the country into a war of aggression against nations with whom we had no quarrel and who were no threat to us. This resulted in numerous soldiers killed and even more maimed in body and soul. This whole adventure has cost many billions, not to mention civilian aid for the hopeless attempt to turn Afghanistan into a civilized country. It’s a project that has failed by everyone who has tried it. Fogh Rasmussen became Secretary General of NATO as a thank you, and his son was granted American citizenship, which the father said he was proud of – proud that his son has also been able to officially shake off this disgusting Danishness and can call himself an American. Proud that his son became part of a people with no real culture and no roots, a people with a false patriotism that hangs and floats in the air, as it lacks the historical prerequisites that a true love of country requires.
Now Anders is working on a book in which, according to press reviews, he expresses his fervent desire for America to lead the world and act as its policeman. Maybe there could also be a job in it for Fogh Rasmussen. We would suggest dog catcher in one of the colonies. Rasmussen currently supplements his ample pension funds as an advisor on political affairs, currently for the Ukrainian government, which might make some people fear for the country’s future. A brain – if you can call it that – that cannot produce better political analysis should probably refrain from advising on political issues.
America’s unfortunate role in European history is covered elsewhere. America’s interference in Europe during World War I is responsible for the continent’s destruction and the deaths of more than 50 million people. But America didn’t stop there. It forced Britain and France to dismantle their colonial empires, leaving hundreds of millions of people at the mercy of the resulting absolute chaos, which in the following decades turned orderly societies into failed states plagued by hunger, misery, violence, death, destruction and, not least, overpopulation. In this context, the wars in Korea and Vietnam can only be described as minor, unfortunate episodes.
Today, America’s deadly role can be seen throughout the Middle East, where civilized states have been transformed into civil war-torn and lawless territories, where people fear for their lives every day and where law no longer prevails. Iraq was one of the bright spots of the Middle East, a state where women and Christians could live in freedom and participate in society on an equal footing with Muslim men, a state where healthcare, schooling and education were free for all and where there was peace and order, in short, a country that was far ahead of the USA, where an education costs a fortune and you have to die if you cannot pay for your hospital stay. It was a Western-oriented state, but it supported the Palestinians morally and financially, which was a thorn in the side of Israel and its American vassal. Sure, Saddam Hussein may have been a buffoon, but experience has clearly shown that force is the only way to hold the country together, because it is an artificial state created by Britain, where too many groups are forced to live together with nothing deeper in common – a prime example of the blessings of multiculturalism. You knew you had to keep your mouth shut, but you have to here too if you want to exist in society. Rebellion was not tolerated and it would not be tolerated here either. Under no circumstances, however, is this the business of other states. That is something every country has to find out for itself.
This country the United States destroyed twice, so that life in the once thriving Iraq is now a living hell, where you risk being killed by gunshots or car bombs at any moment. There will hardly ever be peace unless a new strongman succeeds in taking power and restoring calm with a firm hand. The alternative is a fragmentation of the state so that the different population groups have their own state or, for the smaller groups, at least their own autonomous area. This solution is also opposed by the United States, partly because it would necessarily lead to the creation of a Kurdish state, which Turkey would not accept willingly.
The same scenario can be found in Libya. There is no denying that Gadaffi had become a somewhat eccentric figure. Nor that he had already earned the right to have his head shortened by the bombing of the Pan Am plane over Lockerbie. But there was nothing to replace him. Today, Libya has collapsed and is one of the homes of the Islamic State, whose emergence, incidentally, is entirely due to the US’s clumsy intervention in things the US doesn’t have the slightest clue about. The Islamic State is also Israel’s nemesis. There is no doubt about Israel’s active interest in destroying the Arab world, but should IS take power in Syria or Iraq, for example, it would undeniably put Israel in a very dangerous situation – to say the least.
Now the same story is repeating itself in Syria. Syria, like Iraq, was a well-ordered state. Incited by the West (read Israel), opposition forces started an armed uprising with weapons supplied by America. What do you expect in that situation? The rebellion is crushed, which is not a pretty sight, but a logical consequence. The same would happen in the US if someone started an armed uprising there. There is a lot of talk about an international legal order, but this requires that you stay out of other countries’ internal affairs and that you do not support a rebellion against the country’s legal government, which you recognize. This is an act of war, but the Syrian Government does not really have any practical way of fighting back. If it survives, which is to be hoped, the US influence in the country is likely to be very, very limited.
From the point of view of the US and Israel, it is an added bonus that the chaos in the Middle East has intensified the immigration pressure on Europe and thus promoted the continent’s downfall. The majority of these asylum-seeking hordes are not refugees from Syria or Iraq, as one would think from the “refugee stories” in the mainstream press, but creatures from far more distant lands, using the lawless space created by the US to penetrate Europe’s undefended perimeter. Quite simply, the United States is the greatest evil the history of the world has ever known!
The nature of the rebels the US is supporting can be seen in a video showing the killing of a little boy accused of being a spy. Allah is truly great! This is not a video from Islamic State, but from one of the rebel forces that is actively supported with weapons from the US, which probably also supplied the knife used to cut off the boy’s head. This is the world order that Anders Fogh Rasmussen wants. Enjoy your meal!
