The U.S. and Europe — the Brits specifically — are uncontrolled and flouting worldwide legislation as they perform army strikes in Yemen, Syria and Iraq. The West claims it’s an act of self-defense, however as an alternative of killing or arresting particular people liable for assaults, it’s engaged in collective punishment. I feel we’re coming to a degree the place anger towards the West goes to boil over and the U.S. and Europe could get a style of their very own medication. All of this was avoidable, however the U.S. and Britain have satisfied their residents that assaults on overseas nations with out the backing of the UN is completely acceptable. It’s not. These actions shred worldwide help for the U.S.-proclaimed “rules-based worldwide order.”
The most recent incident to spark outrage is a hellfire missile strike in Baghdad.
In accordance with CENTCOM, Abu al-Saadi was the one goal of the assassination in Baghdad. Acording to them, he was liable for assaults towards American bases.
In accordance with a pro-resistance supply near the PMU, al-Saadi was assassinated alone in a automotive with out every other companions being assassinated, opposite to the preliminary reviews of a second particular person.
[Other] Studies state that the focused assassination hit the automobiles of Kataib Hezbollah commanders, particularly Abu Baqir al-Saadi and Hajj Arkan al-Alaywi.
America ostensibly has pleasant relations with the Authorities of Iraq. The conventional process below the “rules-based worldwide order” requires america to subject an indictment towards the alleged perpetrators of Tower 22 bombing after which current that to the Authorities of Iraq and request arrest and extradition. Quite than comply with a diplomatic route, america carried out an act of battle on the sovereign territory of Iraq. This act provides Iraq — once more below the “rules-based worldwide order” proclaimed as sacrosanct by america — the correct to strike again towards U.S. targets.
Within the rapid aftermath of the assassination, Iraqis took to the streets of Baghdad chanting ,”God is Nice, America is the Nice Devil”.
I might not need to be a U.S. diplomat or CIA officer in Baghdad. They will be focused and I might not be shocked if they’re attacked. The sort of motion doesn’t diminish the keenness for attacking U.S. bases and personnel in Iraq. Just the opposite.
BREAKING: With Harakat Hizbullah al-Nujaba main the way in which in solidarity with Kata’ib Hizbullah, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has simply struck the unlawful US ZOG base on Al-Omar oilfield in Syria’s Deir Ezzor! Suicide drones have triggered HUGE explosions!
Don’t consider this alone because the strikeback for Hajj Abou Baqir al-Saadi (https://t.me/Cultures_of_Resistance/25916?single) (R.A.)! No, occupiers! That is however the starting!
I imagine the approaching days will see a major enhance in assaults on U.S. bases and personnel within the area. This most definitely will result in additional assaults by U.S. forces on targets inside Iraq, which is just going to enrage the Iraqi individuals and pressure the Authorities of Iraq to demand that the U.S. withdraw its forces. Worst case, Iraq breaks relations with Washington.
Iraq will not be the one one pissed off at Washington’s antics. Biden’s Nationwide Safety mouthpiece, John Kirby, did some critical harm over the previous twenty 4 hours with this silly remark:
On-the-Record Press Gaggle by NSC Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby – White Home, Feb 6 2024
Q Hey, Kirby. Thanks a lot for doing this. When America is speaking a couple of hostages deal, is it a part of a much bigger deal of normalization with Saudi Arabia, or are we speaking about two completely different paths right here?
MR. KIRBY: No, these are two various things. […]
…
On the identical time, we have been, earlier than the seventh of October, and are nonetheless now having discussions with our counterparts within the area, Israel and Saudi Arabia — clearly, the 2 key ones — about making an attempt to maneuver ahead with a normalization association between Israel and Saudi Arabia.So these discussions are ongoing as effectively. We definitely acquired constructive suggestions from either side that they’re prepared to proceed to have these discussions. However that could be a separate observe and never associated particularly to making an attempt to get this prolonged humanitarian pause in place. Each are actually vital although.
The Saudis wasted no time in issuing a blistering denunciation:
This letter is diplomatic converse for calling america a bald-faced liar. The Biden workforce has did not be taught that you simply can not make palatable chocolate mousse out of cow manure.
The trend towards the West will not be confined to the Center East. A video was posted tonight exhibiting a few Russian gents confronting British diplomats at a restaurant in Moscow. The anger is actual and rising.
If the shoe was on the opposite foot and a overseas authorities carried out an assault in Washington or London, would the U.S. or the Brits sit again and do nothing? After all not. America has grown accustomed to wantonly utilizing army pressure with out a clear strategic goal. This isn’t one thing distinctive to Biden. Obama did it, George W. Bush did it and Invoice Clinton did it. America bought away with it prior to now with out struggling any vital blowback that threw into query the effectiveness and competence of its army energy.
We are actually witnessing a turning level. The U.S. use of army proxies in Ukraine and Syria actually is blowing up in its face. Ditto in Yemen. The U.S. will proceed bombing and the Houthis will proceed to launch anti-ship missiles and drones. That is headed in direction of an escalation that the U.S. can not afford to combat, particularly in an election 12 months. Individuals are usually not psychologically ready to lose. That was the message of George Patton.
But, if america continues on its current course of making an attempt to bomb its approach to peace it’ll fail and fail spectacularly. Each in Ukraine and within the Center East. When that occurs, America will likely be turned the other way up. I’m not saying america is incapable of profitable a army victory in concept, however pursuing that plan of action would require america to endure a large mobilization and a restructuring of the economic system as a way to re-create a reliable industrial base that would help and maintain such an effort. That ain’t going to occur. The present U.S. army campaigns usually tend to destroy American affect abroad and spark home unrest that can create chaos throughout the breadth of America. The individuals of the United Staes are going to be taught a tough lesson — there are limits to what may be achieved with standard army energy.
