In the world of addictions, power tops the list and it becomes more dangerous when coupled with imperialistic and colonial desires. That’s what the collective West has been enjoying for around three-centuries now. But like all the great, dictatorial, and power-hungry empires, the western empire’s fall was evident. And if not on paper, the fall of western domination and hegemony is apparent.
For centuries, the ‘Global North’ has dictated the terms for the ‘Global South’, their orders our obedience, their culture our manifestation, their bombs our lands, their bullets our people, their lies our minds, their banks our debts, their weapons and their control.
With their self-declaration of them being the ‘Global Moral Police’ who “want to secure or bring democracies to the third world where people are primitive, and cannot govern themselves,” they left no stone unturned in wreaking havoc over almost all the planet.
From the British Empire (Pax Britannica) to the American Empire (Pax Americana) their motives, strategies, and their actions have been similar to a great extent.
Creating wars to establish control, telling big lies to manipulate minds, lending money to enslave nations. And doing all this under the guise of “the only able people to govern and make the lives of humans better across the globe.”
And of course, with all the resources they had at their disposal, made their wishes successful. From controlling other countries’ internal matters to dictating their foreign policies, the West was happy until they were in control. But as the tides started to change, the big brother across the Atlantic Ocean started to shiver, the ground beneath his feet shaking, his throne trembling.
All the tricks in his books, from declaring non-whites as “uncivilised” to declaring “Muslims as terrorists”, from “Weapons of Mass Destruction” to “Global War on Terror”, from “China is a threat” to “Russia is an enemy” are done and dusted. They have been here and done that.
And now as their trickery book seems to have no pages, and as they feel their hegemony completely threatened, like a brat child who kicks and punches everything if he’s not given the toy he wants, the West is creating chaos everywhere possible.
From provoking Russia to such an extent that there was no option for Putin other than ordering a military operation, and then to support Ukraine financially, militarily, politically, and diplomatically. And then to support Israel’s actions in Palestine, West was able to create more wars as it edges to its dethronement.
These could be the last of wars the arrogant West has been able to orchestrate or worse-the armageddon can be their nail in the coffin.
With the mounting frustration of nations like India, Brazil, South Africa, Venezuela not toeing their line, the West is going all guns blazing to maintain their hegemony. But they need to revisit the history and read about empires that tried and failed.
The majority of the ‘Global South’ is freeing itself from the neo-colonialism of the West, but instead of accepting the newly written pages of history, the ‘Global North’ wants to continue with its own version. But history has a habit of placing dictators on the wrong side, and they seem to deliberately evade that fact.
Their frustration over China’s economic and diplomatic success, India’s independent foreign policy, Iran’s stern opposition, and Russia’s rise to power is well established by their campaigns of disinformation, their official statements, their diplomatic anxiety, and their reliance on military-industrial complexes.
No doubt, they stooped low a long time ago, but with each passing day they seem to break their own records and their attitude of ‘World can go to hell, we will do what we want to do.’
Saturday’s deadly terrorist attack that killed over 100 humans while injuring around 200 inside a concert hall in Russia’s capital Moscow left every human in shock, with most of the world leaders quick to condemn the attack in strong words.
But for the U.S.A, “there was no role of Ukraine in the attack” even when the attack was still going on and the people were falling to the bullets inside the hall.
What should have been used as an incident to mend ties with Russia, or just side with humanity and condemn the heinous attack by saying a word or two in the support of Russia, the American officials immediately gave a press conference to defend something which was not even talked about.
Contradicting their own selves, the officials of the White House initially said they ‘had no prior information about the attack nor do they presently have any intel’ while they kept ruling out any possibility of Ukrainian involvement.
It’s surprising that on the 7th of March 2024, the U.S Embassy in Russia warned the American citizens in the country to avoid large gatherings as they had inputs of terrorist attacks.
Here is the official statement of the embassy: Security Alert: Avoid Large Gatherings over the Next 48 Hours. Location: Moscow, Russia
“The Embassy is monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and U.S. citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours.”
This duplicitous attitude can play an important role in the coming weeks/months as more events unfold.
The attack has generated a serious reaction in Russia, with the country’s former Prime Minister and present Deputy Chairman of the country’s Security Council saying, “all those whose link to the attack is established including the Ukrainian state officials and their ideological mentors should be killed. Death for Death.”
Just some 30-minutes after the attack, many western officials were quick to blame ISIS for the attack. And not so surprisingly, the organisation claimed the attack out of thin air.
In recent months, the ISIS has only attacked countries supporting Palestinians, where the strongest American ally has been butchering unarmed civilians including infants and women mercilessly.
While this casts a shadow over who runs, or on whose directions the ISIS operates, it also tests the Russian abstain from declaring a full fledged war against the West and its allies. Be it anywhere, in any avatar across the world.
And mark my words, the modern war with Russia is not like the Cold War, this time the war with Russia will be completely different, and the West is fully aware of the fact.
This is why the West and its allies have stuck to using proxies to weaken Russia, a dream that was torn apart in the first few months of the Russia-Ukraine war.
It is important to note that all the four terrorists who massacred people inside the Crocus Hall in Moscow, Russia have been apprehended while they tried to escape towards the border with Ukraine.
In a series of videos released by Russian authorities, the apprehended terrorists have revealed almost everything, from who contacted them, who gave them the coordinates of the place to be attacked and who was going to receive them in Ukraine.
Addressing his nation, the Russian Premier Putin said, “the perpetrators cold-bloodedly and deliberately targeted our citizens, including our children, with the intent to kill them at close range. Like the Nazis who once carried out massacres in the occupied territories, they planned to stage a demonstrative execution, a bloody act of intimidation.”
“All perpetrators, organisers and masterminds of this crime will face fair and inevitable punishment, whoever they may be and whoever directed them. I emphasise once more: we will identify and bring to justice each and every individual who stands behind these terrorists, those who orchestrated this atrocity, this assault against Russia and our people,” the president said.
“We understand what the terrorist threat means. In this regard, we rely on cooperation with all states that sincerely share our pain and are ready to really join forces in the fight against a common enemy, international terrorism and all its manifestations,” Putin said, hinting at seriously aligning with the countries in a major war against the West.
And if the West stays reluctant on initiating peace, Russia would not deter from using military power to end the western dreams once and for all.
And that’s what the West wants, it wants someone from Russia, Iran, China to give the first blow of the nuclear war so it can then fire back and within no time, the 90% of the world could be up in flames.
As we wait for blank pages of history to be filled, we hope that the Nuclear War won’t make it to the books this soon, but as it is, the history waits for nobody, and the global power shifting is already making it to the drafts.
