Paul Craig Roberts: "Insouciance Rules The West"
Submitted by Paul Craig Roberts,
Europe is being overrun by refugees from Washington’s, and Israel’s, hegemonic policies in the Middle East and North Africa that are resulting in the slaughter of massive numbers of civilians. The inflows are so heavy that European governments are squabbling among themselves about who is to take the refugees. Hungary is considering constructing a fence, like the US and Israel, to keep out the undesirables. Everywhere in the Western media there are reports deploring the influx of migrants; yet nowhere is there any reference to the cause of the problem.
The European governments and their insouciant populations are themselves responsible for their immigrant problems. For 14 years Europe has supported Washington’s aggressive militarism that has murdered and dislocated millions of peoples who never lifted a finger against Washington. The destruction of entire countries such as Iraq, Libya, and Afghanistan, and now Syria and Yemen, and the continuing US slaughter of Pakistani civilians with the full complicity of the corrupt and traitorous Pakistani government, produced a refugee problem that the moronic Europeans brought upon themselves.
Europe deserves the problem, but it is not enough punishment for their crimes against humanity in support of Washington’s world hegemony.
In the Western world insouciance rules governments as well as peoples, and most likely also everywhere else in the world. It remains to be seen whether Russia and China have any clearer grasp of the reality that confronts them.
Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, Director of the US Defense Intelligence Agency until his retirement in August 2014, has confirmed that the Obama regime disregarded his advice and made a willful decision to support the jihadists who now comprise ISIS. ( https://medium.com/insurge-intelligence/officials-islamic-state-arose-from-us-support-for-al-qaeda-in-iraq-a37c9a60be4 ) Here we have an American government so insouciant, and with nothing but tunnel vision, empowering the various elements that comprise Washington’s excuse for the “war on terror” and the destruction of several countries. Just as the idiot Europeans produce their own refugee problems, the idiot Americans produce their own terrorist problems. It is mindless. And there is no end to it.
Consider the insanity of the Obama regime’s policy toward the Soviet Union. Kissinger and Brzezinski, two of the left-wing’s most hated bogymen, are astonished at the total unawareness of Washington and the EU of the consequences of their aggression and false accusations toward Russia. Kissinger says that America’s foreign policy is in the hands of “ahistorical people,” who do not comprehend that “we should not engage in international conflicts if, at the beginning, we cannot describe an end.” Kissinger criticizes Washington and the EU for their misconception that the West could act in Ukraine in ways inconsistent with Russian interests and receive a pass from the Russian government.
As for the Idiotic claim that Putin is responsible for the Ukrainian tragedy, Kissinger says:
“It is not conceivable that Putin spends sixty billion euros on turning a summer resort into a winter Olympic village in order to start a military crisis the week after a concluding Olympic ceremony that depicted Russia as a part of Western civilization.” ( http://sputniknews.com/world/20150819/1025918194/us-russia-policy-history-kissinger.html )
Don’t expect the low-grade morons who comprise the Western media to notice anything as obvious as the meaning Kissinger’s observation.
Brzezinski has joined Kissinger in stating unequivocally that “Russia must be reassured that Ukraine will never become a NATO member.” ( http://sputniknews.com/politics/20150630/1024022244.html )
Kissinger is correct that Americans and their leaders are ahistorical. The US operates on the basis of a priori theories that justify American preconceptions and desires. This is a prescription for war, disaster, and the demise of humanity.
Even American commentators whom one would consider to be intelligent are ahistorical. Writing on OpEdNews (8-18-15) William Bike says that Ronald Reagan advocated the destruction of the Soviet Union. Reagan did no such thing. Reagan was respectful of the Soviet leadership and worked with Gorbachev to end the Cold War. Reagan never spoke about winning the Cold War, only about bringing it to an end. The Soviet Union collapsed as a consequence of Gorbachev being arrested by hardline communists, opposed to Gorbachev’s policies, who launched a coup. The coup failed, but it took down the Soviet government. Reagan had nothing to do with it and was no longer in office.
Some ahistorical Americans cannot tell the difference between the war criminals Clinton, Bush, Cheney, and Obama, and Jimmy Carter, who spent his life doing, and trying to do, good deeds. No sooner do we hear that the 90-year old former president has cancer than Matt Peppe regals us on CounterPunch about “Jimmy Carter’s Blood-Drenched Legacy” (8-18-15). Peppe describes Carter as just another hypocrite who professed human rights but had a “penchant for bloodshed.” What Peppe means is that Carter did not stop bloodshed initiated by foreigners abroad. In other words Carter failed as a global policeman. Peppe’s criticism of Carter, of course, is the stale and false neoconservative criticism of Carter.
Peppe, like so many others, shows an astonishing ignorance of the constraints existing policies institutionalized in government exercise over presidents. In American politics, interest groups are more powerful than the elected politicians. Look around you. The federal agencies created to oversea the wellbeing of the national forests, public lands, air and water are staffed with the executives of the very polluting and clear-cutting industries that the agencies are supposed to be regulating. Read CounterPunch editor Jeffrey St. Clair’s book, Born Under A Bad Sky, to understand that those who are supposed to be regulated are in fact doing the regulating, and in their interests. The public interest is nowhere in the picture.
Look away from the environment to economic policy. The same financial executives who caused the ongoing financial crisis resulting in enormous ongoing public subsidies to the private banking system, now into the eight year, are the ones who run the US Treasury and Federal Reserve.
Without a strong movement behind him, from whose ranks a president can staff an administration committed to major changes, the president is in effect a captive of the private interests who finance political campaigns. Reagan is the only president of our time who had even a semblance of a movement behind him, and the “Reaganites” in his administration were counterbalanced by the Bush Establishment Republicans.
During the 1930s, President Franklin D. Roosevelt had a movement behind him consisting of New Dealers. Consequently, Roosevelt was able to achieve a number of overdue reforms such as Social Security.
Nevertheless, Roosevelt did not see himself as being in charge. In The Age of Acquiescence (2015), Steve Fraser quotes President Roosevelt telling Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau at the end of 1934 that “the people I have called the ‘money changers in the Temple’ are still in absolute control. It will take many years and possibly several revolutions to eliminate them.”
Eight decades later as Nomi Prins has made clear in All The Presidents’ Bankers (2014), the money changers are still in control. Nothing less than fire and the sword can dislodge them.
Yet, and it will forever be the case, America has commentators who really believe that a president can change things but refuses to do so because he prefers the way that they are.
Unless there is a major disaster, such as the Great Depression, or a lessor challenge, such as stagflation for which solutions were scarce, a president without a movement is outgunned by powerful private interest groups, and sometimes even if he has a movement.
Private interests were empowered by the Republican Supreme Court’s decision that the purchase of the US government by corporate money is the constitutionally protected exercise of free speech.
To be completely clear, the US Supreme Court has ruled that organized interest groups have the right to control the US government.
Under this Supreme Court ruling, how can the United States pretend to be a democracy?
How can Washington justify its genocidal murders as “bringing democracy” to the decimated?

Re: " Unless the world wakes up and realizes that total evil has the reins in the West, humanity has no future."
The world has woken up, but the means to channel the alarm are controlled by whore media on behalf of their pimp overlords.
So, yes, we are quite fucked.
Mmm Insouciance. So continental. So French. Like wiping my butt with silk.
Insouciance rules the west?
I dunno.
Unless this is the queen's english for sex, drugs, and rock n roll?
Functional drunks rule the west. Eux, ils se soucient quand meme tres peu de PCR.
"Insoucuance" appears to be PCR's favorite word. And it is a nice word. But I do wish that he wouldn't use it in every piece he writes. It gets boring and there are many other similar words he could use to describe the same thing?
"insouciance" doesn't describe it anyway, "Sheeple" is much closer. I would probably say "Stupified".
Isouciance ? It looks more like impotent (incompetent ?) stupor...
It's really not insouciance that rules the world, it is cold-hearted and self-serving greed. Insouciance just shrugs and ignores it.
Can't stop being a neocon for even one f#ckin' minute.
Rien a cire de tes conneries, va!
Down arrows because they can't wax bullshit? Most on here do.
No we aren't...it's always darkest right before the dawn.
P.S. PCR, may GOD bless and preserve you...from one Georgia boy to another'n, much love & respect, Mr. Roberts.

bravo to PCR for calling out the real criminals. i was previously disappointed with his otherwise very accurate and insightful commentary on geopolitics because he refused to mention the moneychangers and failed to call the "neocons" by their real name: zionists. as far as i know this is his first real mention of the true evil in the world. as you said janus, may god bless and preserve PCR, identifying the devils who have so well concealed themselves by their true name is a dangerous game.
No, it isnt darkest right before dawn. Jesus aren't their any real men left? Human males are hunters, and lots of yummy species are best hunted around dawn, when it isnt quite as dark, duh, as in the middle of the fucking night.

In my experience, it is always coldest before the dawn.
Gobble, gobble.gobble........chrrrrrp.
I'll second that, though I'm from France, not Georgia.
DeVelioc - Alright, I guess I found one Frenchman I can do business with. I just made a comment that the French are the only culture I couldnt do business with. But times do change and so does a nation. Sometimes better sometimes worse.
If I may be so bold to say that, it was the French (de Lafayette) who delivered the knockout punch to the British during the American Revolution, for their own purposes, of course. The gift of the Statue of Liberty has served as a reminder, I suppose, of French involvement of that period. If you notice, too, American media have no compunctions about knocking the French. And do you notice the lack of organized complaint, insisting upon retractments? Of course not. The French love Americans, but not necessarily its elected government or captured media.
DeKevelioc - Oh I am aware of that history. My experiences were not media influenced, when i was active in the Higher Education market for lead generation, there were three French companies invested I met with.
Two of three deals they tanked even though there counterpart executives reviewed the numbers as sound. Not like it was rocket science. It seemed like there was no reason.
Maybe I was just too aggressive and snap, snap get it done was the only thing I could think of. Your a good representation of your culture. Perhaps it is time I reconsidered.
It's also darkest just before the human race goes extinct.
Mutual deterrance will only lead to our inevitable annhialtion.
Yes, the sun will still rise after the cities burn... but humanity may not.
The truth is, we have not advanced our humanity as much as we have our technology. Now we have the ability to destroy most (if not all) life on Earth. But we have not done anything to live in balance with the planet, to end war, to end corruption, to end poverty. In fact ALL OF THOSE THINGS have gotten worse.
Humanity is on a collision course with itself. And until something changes, our destruction is all but certain.
Yes indeed. It has always amazed me how, before almost every major sporting event, the military is paraded out before the public. It appears that, to Americans, the biggest insult is to question the necessity of military conflict. Americans seem to be proud that their military drones innocents abroad, finances terrorist organizations, and creates havoc around the world.
To foreigners, it appears, based on the spectacle, that Americans truly believe they have a God given right to make you the enemy, and to kill your children. The media glorifies it, and the public goes along. The biggest sin in America is to be contemptuous toward the MIC.
Just like it as in Nazi Germany
Notice that when Obomber or others speak its not just ONE US flag behind them. Its a WHOLE ROW wth the Star of David in between,
Americns are really stupid if they don't see it.

Wow! "Israel"! He used the word! Pretty soon, he may even mention "the Jews."
"Consider the insanity of the Obama regime’s policy toward the Soviet Union"
I've considered the first 7 words of that sentence and it makes me puke
Well go ahead and puke the whole thing out, clean it out all the way to your bunghole.
Putin resurrected the Soviet Union?
No, Obummer did (actually the neocons in charge).
Zerohead - Give the guy a break. He is very old. This piece was superb and took some time writing. He literally is giving his last breaths to serve the public one last time.
Didn't know FDR said that about the 'Money changers in temple' and how Central Bankers now control the government.
The churches today unlike FDR's time teach only a partial portion of why Christ tipped over the merchant tables in the temple.
The tables were money changers. The Jews believed it sacriledge to offer temple donations with Ceasar's face on them. So the priests of there day (Saducees and Pharisees) would charge an exhorbitent price to have an alchemist melt them down in temple chambers, think it was 300% if I remember correctly.
Then they would add lead to the coins which devalued them. This was such a collosal rip off of what was holy intent (whether you believe or not) Christ got violently angry and tipped them all over. He got murdered by the priests by causing a riot so Pilo had no choice but to execute him, even though Pilot argued against the priests and crowd.
Imagine that? The guy who is literally trying to prevent you from getting robbed has been convinced by priests running a racket that it was Christ for being the trouble maker.
What devaluation amounts to is theft of your labor, your time. Time is the only commodity that can't be bought so literally the same group and model then and now are stealing a portion of your life.
The Federal Reserve owns the government as FDR and other politicians have stated. Senator Durbin said "the banks own the place in 2009. The Federal Reserve is like a McDonalds franchisee with the BIS being corporate headquarters. The 'Fed' is a private corporation.
The answer is to nationalize them and turn banking into a public utility. Private lenders should be permitted but once the Central Bank controls the currency for any length of time it is eventually game over, they own the government. PCR is correct about the limited options a President has. JFK died trying to get rid of them but he wasn't the first or last to catch bullets trying.
The founder of the model was a brilliant sociopath named Mayer Rothschild. It wasnt even the guys real last name, he changed it to mean red shield, like my avatar if you look closely.
He stated nearly three hundred years ago that he didn't care who made the laws if he controlled the currency.
All said and done government has the guns and with enough support as PCR suggests end the skimming of lives by building enough supporters in Washington. As they are advanced in sending wrong signals for profit, attempting to end them will likely attempt for them to start WW3.
Also if your are the global reserve currency (now a rotating torch amidst nations) then it is your nations job of being global policeman. This is absolute power and it corrupts absolutely.
PCR is right about Russia and our current foreign policy. Even Kissinger is alarmed at pushing up into there borders and shitting on there $60B euros for the Sochi Olympics. I was embarrased to call myself an American.
This seemed tit for tat for Russia breaking up some nasty business supported by the US in Ossetia/Georgia. The Russians are encircled. The Chinese will go where the money is when pushed. The Russians have shown amazing restraint. $60B euros for the Russians is like us spending $400B (enough investment in infrastructure and innovation to heal our economy).
From a risk vs. reward perspective alone, this is where you give the Russians more time to catch up to the world in how the West modernized. Detente would be a good thing right now and healing our own nation.
Of course saying this gov personell will pop up and state we're just Putin dick lickers. No, we just realize the pressure to push the big red button is growing. Defense of there culture is baked into tehre genetics and they view themselves as now having a responsibility to repel the invaders as a God given quest.
In that regard, the Bear may indeed 'chastise' the world but don't think I am going to be cheering for them if Russian nukes are going off over my head.
Unless the world wakes up and realizes that total evil has the reins in the West, humanity has no future.
The West is controlled by its warmongering neocon rulers in Washington. The land of the free is a fascist, police state masquerading as a democracy. And the press, completely owned by the CIA, does a fine job of covering that up:
Who rules America?
The secret collaboration of the military, the intelligence and national security agencies, and gigantic corporations in the systematic and illegal surveillance of the American people reveals the true wielders of power in the United States. Telecommunications giants such as AT&T, Verizon and Sprint, and Internet companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Twitter, provide the military and the FBI and CIA with access to data on hundreds of millions of people that these state agencies have no legal right to possess.
Congress and both of the major political parties serve as rubber stamps for the confluence of the military, the intelligence apparatus and Wall Street that really runs the country. The so-called “Fourth Estate”—the mass media—functions shamelessly as an arm of this ruling troika.

Teeth - I think simpler. We think in 3D patterns. Think a pyramid and geometry. Both are tools that reflect our thoughts.
666 is geometry. So is 333. Troika is an old term for the same thing at the end of the day. It is a three legged stool, triangulation as yuk yuk Bill Clinton loved to yak about as if 10,000 year old understanding makes the Mason's geniuses.

I don't blame some folks for never reading it. I couldn't go to church any more when I realized how far of the teachings were from from actuallly reading it myself cover to cover.
A few of those thinkers were pretty close to modern physics in projections and timelines. So is the Hindu teachings but try telling that to someone at church and see what happens.

I know; I've written him several times concerning this. He's 76-years-old and has more energy than I have (in my early 50's). He's truly an amazing individual. And the guilt I have for not contributing financially to his blog lingers. I'm afraid to use my debt card through the Internet and don't have PayPal or such a service. Do I have to get a money order and mail it, from SE Asia? Okay. Please contribute to Paul's site.
Dekevioc - To your point, I wrote PRC when he had a post about donations being surprised he wasnt getting them that fear was preventing some of that happening. Just don't bitch if he takes on ads like ZH. You'll have to use as blocking or just eat the banner spam and like it.
You have a far, far larger chance of having a gas station or inside job employees stealing your money than the tech PCR uses. As for fear of getting in trouble there is plenty of dissenting opinion in Washington. Yiur probably the last thing on intelligence agencies mind.
If a larger war breaks out that is the time where dissenting opinions tend to be prosecuted if a journalisy gets big enough. If that happens as said, time to take your ball and go home. If your too afraid to donate at least republish his work and follow his example of personal sacrifice at the local level. Lots of people need a helping and a snippet of info to go along with a meal.
Well stated.
Epicurious - Hey man. Just because you have dissenting opinion from current or former politician or bureaucrats (even CIA) doesn't mean they get 'offed'. Or that bloggers are going to get jailed next week.
If that really does start to happen then its time to really take your ball and go home and shedup. Its like being at a marriage "speak now or forever hold your peace."
You have quite a bit of recognition for years now in government we're off the rails now.
Insouciant:
I learned a new word today. Never heard it before.
Maybe I've just been insouciant about expanding my vocabulary.
yeah, talk about using the hell out of a word barely in usage among the average 'Murican (m'self included)...I wonder if he subscribes to Word a Day?
If you have a few hundred books on your bookshelf beside your desk like PCR, or myself, one likes to take the words out for a bit of exercise, and fresh air, every now and then. It helps justify dusting the bookshelf off once in a while, and it helps to justify buying the furniture polish too.
NOTE: All 'learneds' like to exercise their vocabulary when they lecture.
For those too lazy to google
in·sou·ci·ance in?so?os??ns,?aNso?o?syäNs/ noun noun: insouciance casual lack of concern; indifference.Thanks, I was thinking about googling it but something was holding me back.. like a force? I think it was the realization that once I had looked for the meaning I would not remember the word or how to spell it at some future date. My lack of action could only be described as insouciance to the matter.
People applaud the use of an unfamiliar word, but hammer me when I insist upon proper spelling. Words must be spelled correctly to show your intellect. If you can't spell then shut the fuck up. See, I use all words in the dictionary when appropriate, it is spelled correctly, and I bet you didn't need to look it up either.
Kudos to you SS for looking it up......BTW........so did I.
Buster - Yeah he made me look it up too haha. I'll wager that was his intent.
I see articles like this still attract instant low ratings from the troll bots prowling ZH.
Say what we will about the neocons (cough...shitbags) they are organized and focused.
Unless you truly understand the word "sociopath", you will have no defense against their nonsense. You can find enough good information on the web that you really don't need to buy books like "The Mask of Sanity," "Snakes In Suits," "The Sociopath Next Door," etc. etc. Then go back and read Genesis, and you'll understand why a good man pointed out that "the truth will set you free" to certain people, and why they crucified him. Too bad that others had to deify the man, just for a few dollars more.
GRD - Yep. They called Christ 'teacher'. He said if you love me you'll listen to my sayings, or advice in other words. No reason to roll around the floor.
Not to detract from your point but Moses wrote Genesis. When he was near death Moses gatherer all the people and told them his advice received by God and codified in the ten commandments and other simple laws were a matter of life and death for an individual and the new forming nation.
What I like about Genesis it starts immediately outlining the evolutionary sequence of life on earth, 3,500 years before Darwin. I never saw any bible authors hung up on evolution.
I agree with Robert's assessment of the US government's egregious foreign policies. The wanton death and destruction is incalculable.
That said, the author's take on domestic considerations is on far shakier grounds. He considered FDR's Social Security program to be long overdue? PCR is supposed to be an economist. Has he not figured out by now that it's underfunded by tens of trillions? It's a Ponzi scheme. How can any rational human being assess the fiscal and moral disaster of Social Security and deem it to be "overdue"? Please.
On a more pedantic note, the post is rife with typographical errors. It's embarrassing. Get an editor, Mr. Roberts.
The SS system is only under funded because the funds funded the MIC. Those funds were never placed in an actual trust with actual earnings to compound. Look at Chile where they actually implemented a system that would have been ours had it not been hijacked.
I don't believe in government-sanctioned forced savings programs. For Uncle Sam to be administering such a system, given that it is the most indebted entity in world history, is more than a little ironic.
That said, the Chilean individual savings program is far superior to the SS scam we endure. Each person in Chile has his own account. It is invested (how well is another matter). Absent a financial implosion, they'll at least enjoy the principal, if not the compounded interest. The savings is theirs to enjoy.
Contrast that with FDR's nightmare: the wealth is pooled, transferred by Congress to spend on today's boondoggles, and replaced with IOUs. After a few decades, the accumulated pile of worthless bonds begins to gain attention. The percentage each worker must "contribute" goes up, and they eventually raise the age requirements to compensate for the enormous underfunding.
Inevitably, they'll resort to means-testing, monetary inflation, and outright default, because the math doesn't add up. In other words, stealing from a younger generation to pay for the promises of politicians long deceased is the hallmark of a pyramid scheme. Bernie Madoff went to jail for it. Congress runs a far larger scheme and none of these a-holes is willing to admit the obvious. This is the program Paul Craig Roberts is defending. I think it is deplorable, and he ought to know better.
SS is an somewhat necessary outgrowth of complex society, or would we prefer to be stepping over old people in the street?
Mini Me - That comment has a lot of merit but if gov wants your money they will just take it.
The seeds of hijacking were sown long before SS. We could point to Lincolns usurping the Constitution for the right of States to secede or the establishment of the Fed in 1913. These two examples may very well not be the earliest if someone is more of a history buff than I. I know your speaking specifically to the functioning of SS but it's all part of the same brew.
From the birth of the nation there were two dominant factions pulling at the national fabric. On one side you had the federalists who wished to concentrate power in the hands of the federal government giving the power to rule to a hand full of oligarchs situated at the top of the pyramid. This faction was initially led by Washington and Hamilton. On the other side you had the antifederalist who wished for a decentralized government with the ultimate power to govern residing in the hands of individual citizen. The champions of this view were Jefferson and Madison.
The federalists wrote the Constitution pretty much to the exclusion of the antifederalists concerns over individual sovereignty. The document was only about five thousand words in length and it was published in almost all of the nation’s newspapers. It was read by the general populace. It was not immediately well liked and it was cussed and discussed in every meeting place common at the time.
The primary objection held by the antifederalists was that there were no limits to the growth of federal power within the system designed by the federalist. It became readily apparent to anyone with political sense that to get the thing ratified required the inclusion of a bill of rights as demanded by the antifederalists.
A gentlemen’s agreement was reached and a social contract was agreed upon and the Constitution was ratified by the states.
The first usurpation of power by the federalists came in the form of an excise tax on liquor. It was understood by Hamilton that this tax would be impossible to collect and that it would be defied by the frontiersmen. The soul and express purpose of this tax was to give occasion for the federal government to call out the troops as a show of force against the general populace. No one aside from George Washington could successfully lead this show of force without meeting resistance from the very same frontiersman who had defeated the British. No farmer was going to shoot the father of the nation. The recalcitrant tax evaders were convicted and then pardoned.
With the show of force completed and the populace properly coward, the federal forces withdrew. The Rise of the American Nation, Harcourt, Brace, 1966, p. 206

Quiet from the peanut gallery. Why don't you volunteer your editing service then?
Those with an agenda calculated the amount SS would need to pay out in so many decades ahead and threw that number out to scare people. What they did not do is calculate how much tax would be collected in that time period. Pure kool aid and many fell for it. Using their tactics as of today you personally have millions in unfunded liabilities if you live a long life. According to SS with current projections of payouts and collections they will be able to fund full payouts until the early 2030's then switch to reduced benefits unless changes are made to the program. Such as means testing and raising the tax cap.
Mini Me - I agree that SS was a good program. Until the funds got looted and capital flight, trade imbalances and wars made sure it couldnt be funded.
PCR needs an editor? I agree. Email him at his blog and volunteer then.
The obsequious are meandering by insouciance.
The rulers are purposeful by corruption.
PCR doesn't see the difference?Just fucking great... now I've got to look up obsequious too...
Got it... bag lickers.

That seems to be his favorite word, insouciance. PCR uses it in almost all his articles lately. It's a good word but I had to look it up 4 months ago when I went to his website. I don't feel stoopid now that I see others did too.
I upvoted you, but all of us that didn't know the word are a bit stoopid.
Sure, but what if you held a steady gaze, nodded ever so slightly and then pursed your lips as in full understanding? A good fake in the USSA is as worthwhile as comprehension otherwise we could not accept Elizabeth Warren as being injun, Oblome as president of the Harvard Law Review or Shillery being named after Sir Edmund. A complete list would be fantastic and could produce a whole new meaning of the word stoopid, something akin to a societal condition.

Freedom of speech, just watch what you say!
PCR speaks the anti Ebonics...

I took the reins from 'evil in the West' March 10th 2008, Dr. Roberts. The future of humanity is safe with me, but we have many Banksters to hang, and bury, before we progress with humanity.
We shall fight them on Wall Street, we shall fight them on the beaches, we shall fight them on the seas, & oceans, we shall never surrender!
"Banksters to hang, and bury"? The bury part shows too much respect. They (banksters) would not bury you. You would be left to rot until the birds were no longer interested. Why would you show them any more consideration?
Because I am a Christian that has not lost my sense of humanity or ethics. Moreover, I would rather not smell the stench of dead Banksters after I have lived with their economic stench for most of my life.
NOTE: Two wrongs don't make a right.
I don't know if karl marx's system was set up to support the direct consumption of goods by the people. I know his argument, his other sociological ones have been proven wrong by us. If we are insouciant (lights on but no ones home), what does that say about the people? I mean, morals and values wise. What paul isn't talking about is the after-depression, basically that the increase in human capital due to willingness to work will allow the ship to tip back over just enough so we can continue to feed our country. That's prosperity and efficiency. But, though I'm buying gold, I'm longing ammo.
Marx didnt "have" or proposed a system.
Under this Supreme Court ruling, how can the United States pretend to be a democracy?
Because if they didn't then have to admit to truth. And then the fraudulent show wouldn't go on any more. Everyone has been led to believe that they are a citizen of a country. But this has been done through purposeful and fraudulent misrepresentation since almost every individual in the "United States" is unaware that they are one of 3 things legally identified in the link below, most being "a Federal corporation" citizen.
Which is one reason why at every border checkpoint within 100 miles inside inside the United States you are asked the seemingly innocuous and ridiculous question of whether or not you are a U.S. Citizen. Once you say YES you are technically under their jurisdiction until you regain jurisdiction for yourself. I say technically because through a combination thing but especially through deception but also ignorance most have been purposely defrauded. But at the same time are also partly responsible through ignorance. Try asserting what you have been led to believe are your "United States" Constitutional rights at a checkpoint and see what happens.

And if government told the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about what is really going on then the whole abject ponzi scheme of legalized fraud, robbery and slavery really would unravel in an instant. And everyone would really be more than angry. They can't have that until the theft of everything is complete.
All the recent attempts to use shootings and race riots are for a variety of reasons. Test out how everyone will react. Use it as a means to incite further violence. Use it as an opportunity to practice how to handle the planned larger scale violence when they finish the theft and collapse the economy. Use them to create new legislation to limit or eliminate rights.
United States being defined in the legal code below. First everyone is fraudulently deceived and then become willing or unwilling participants through a combination every imaginable means such as; distraction, ignorance, complicity, corruption, cooperation, threats, coercion and violence into going along with the "legal" slavery by the "evil" Paul mentions below. Which is not limited to West or East or anywhere else. It is global just with different levels of it right now.

Unless the world wakes up and realizes that total evil has the reins in the West, humanity has no future.
Correction, "evil has the reins" everywhere until it is exposed, confronted and stopped.
Let me demonstrate the current global state of affairs through an appropriate single interaction and fictional quote.
Gino: "I thought America was the answer to my dream..my dreams..a nightmare..".
John: "It isn't America Gino. You're talking about tyrants. Tyranny is a state of mind not a nationality. And if you don't stand up against tyranny it'll beat you every time".
Tyranny is just one form of what Paul calls "evil" and currently temporarily "has the reins" globally.
“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.” - Mark Twain
I am a citizen of the United States. I am not a citizen of the Federal Government Incorporated. So which government is the question directed to?
There are two governments operating in this country:
the United States of America is the Republic government created by the states, for the states, created by the people, for the people
and there is the US government, which is a corporate government, or corporation. This federal government, should be called the United States of America, Incorporated.
Corporations are not allowed by law to become politically charged in terms of their controls over the masses of a region.
Sorry but I haven't met anything more disgusting and unreasonable than an American. Can't work with that (sic), period. It's not about some idea or concept ("tyranny"), your leaders or the bankers.
It's about the whole fucking lot of YOU.
You must go.
Americans are not compatible with human beings.
Maestro - I dunno. The only culture I can't do business with is the French. Maybe they are more ass-holish than we are. Doesn't mean I want even one Frenchman dead though...
Any plan that involves "the world" waking up is not a plan. Mostly because it relies on a big externality not under your control (the waking up of the world). Its not operational. I see this all the time on zerohedge and on causal talk online and IRL, vague calls for society to do something, proposed as a solution to some imagined social ill.
Its better when a plan can be described as a series of actions to be undertaken by a single person, with predictable outcomes.
Here are a few additional thoughts and comments based on the replies.
1. I'm still searching for the legal definition of American. Even if I find one we would both undoubtedly benefit greatly from getting the opinion of First Nations and Native Americans.
2. I don't like generalizations. Each individual is unique. This is one reason I quoted the word "evil" and used it only as a quoted reference from Paul and did not use it as a word of choice myself.
3. Often it is elected or paid leaders of groups and special interests that seek to divide or incite instead of unite in order to meet their agenda. I do my best to be reasonable and am always open to work towards unity. Especially a financial one that benefits everyone. But tyrants typically aren't known as reasonable or wanting to unite when it comes to relinquishing power, control or finances. And if they are not only unreasonable but willing to recklessly endangering others how do you get them to come to reason without force?
Since the current path is planned financial destruction and the beneficiaries are seemingly unwilling to be reasoned with then they have chosen to place everyone, including themselves, in maximum danger. And everyone will lose. If everyone wants a chance to succeed then every leader will need to come together and identify someone that doesn't have any of their individual or group interests as their primary goal or agenda. Someone or group that is able to contribute to a new vision, see beyond all of the individual and group interests and create a new plan and path that could be implemented to benefit everyone. Hard enough on its own without also having to stop tyrants from implementing a planned disaster.
4. There is actual chaos and controlled chaos. Tyrants often believe they can control chaos and gain the benefit for themselves in the end. Even if you are able to reason with them they will frequently try to repeatedly manipulate, control and position themselves to gain the upper hand for their benefit at the end.
Tyrants in a very simplistic sense remind me of a schoolyard bully I had to deal with as a child. He was relentless. He would never stop no matter how much I reasoned with him. Since he wouldn't listen to reason it finally came down to either fighting him or having it continue until I got seriously hurt or killed based on how he was escalating it. Don't even ask where any adult was during all this. I fought him the next day in a knock down drag out fight fight and won. And I chose to be merciful and didn't force him to confess to the principal. He stopped bullying me or anyone else after that day.
If the various global leaders and their resources can't come together quickly and decisively enough to stop the tyrants, prevent this current planned financial outcome and worse, create a new global vision and implement it, then it will be left up to the rest of us that don't want the planned outcome to do make it happen. Notice I didn't mention failure. That's because in the end I'll do my best to contribute to a financial victory for everyone. And even if I ever surrender I know now I'll be doing it tripping over joy my dear tyrants.
Tyrants, you and your resources believe you have the upper hand. And you also believe you have the most to lose. Unfortunately you apparently continue to not realize you also have the most to gain by assisting in creating the alternate path and outcome. And based on my detailed analyses of some of the highest level of tyrants and their messengers they are fully aware, just like I am, that they will not succeed. So until the tyrants force their hand they always have the opportunity to step back, reconsider and change their position.
Even if the leadership mistakenly decides to commit to disaster each individual still has their own opportunity to contribute to the eventual failure of that plan. And for those of you that would choose to take or switch sides and be with the tyrants who are knowingly and willingly planning on leading you to disaster you have made a serious error in judgement. Because not only do they know they will not succeed they will also gladly sacrifice you and your families in order to protect and save themselves.
p.c.r..
i hear that.
Insouciance rules the west just as insouciance ruled the German towns where the death camps were in WW2. Why? The reason is the same. Better to live in a world where "casual lack of concern; indifference" is the rule of thumb than face the horror of reality. That is what is happening now and worse yet to the horror that is yet to come. Insouciance. A beautiful word for a not so beautiful situation.
Heres another beautiful word. Blowback.
There were no death camps - only work camps and transit camps. Don't buy into the Holohoax Matrix.
Ricker; A very good analysis! #1 To you!
Thank You. Whether it is greed in the marketplace or human genocide those who do not learn from past atrocities are doomed indeed to repeat them. If you are evil as in many cases you perfect the crime against your fellow man as Hitler studied and learned from the Armenian genocide by the Ottomans in WWI to further his agenda. What has the bankers, FED and the IMF learned from past crashes and monetary deflation or inflation or unlimited printing? Not a damn thing!!!!! Soooo HERE WE GO AGAIN...
insouciance (n.) Look up insouciance at Dictionary.com
1799, from French insouciant "carelessness, thoughtlessness, heedlessness," from in- "not" (see in- (1)) + se soucier "to care," from Latin sollicitare "to agitate" (see solicit).

This is PCR in pretty much full scale nutbar mode. Insouciance, really, has that become a sin?
You disinfo agents lack spirit
They lack brains
Heywood - I downvoted. I disagree. Don't mistake towing the line or political theatre for intelligence of those driving the bus.

Excellent article PCR! Like Reagan, Obama also has a following. Like Roosevelt though , it consists of those he is buying off with other peoples' money and those he is letting stream across the borders to get other peoples money for free. The bankers are also arden followers of the big fat income streams as are the military followers.
I have zero optimism about the USofA coming out of this without resorting to the "fire and the sword" as you say.
Revolution IS a part of our legacy and a duty we push off to later generations at our and their peril.
Take names kick ass and don't give a flip about the presidential glamour shows. They ARE the problem. hope and change HA!
Stop complying, stop paying. gather guns, grub and start building your local communities from the ground up.
I recall when being in the military years ago ''Report Fraud,Waste and Abuse''
If you do that now you might get the Michael Hastings treatment or spent the rest of your life in prison.
No one could ever accuse you of using toothpaste when you were in the military, Haywood. That was one regulation you got right. :o)
I'm a living case.
I'm not sure about Russia..
I'd say China got a glimpse of that reality last week in Tianjin
This son of a bitch, Ashton Carter just said that Russia poses a very serious threat to US National Security.
This is how they lie to you Americans every day 24/7 and most of you will eat it up.
BECAUSE your media is worse than any Soviet Pravda ever was.
Total LIARS and disinfo agents.
Scary times.
It's not our Media.
America is under a degenerate diabolical Marxist Apartheid.
But the descendants of the great people who founded this Nation have drank the koolaid and the great majority are entirely deceived.
Come on.. It's no damn secret. It's just like the article plainly states and anyone that has read and studied history knows.. America is a Jewish vassal state.. We are nothing but dying host for our Parasites.
Wake up to the PCR/Alex Jones ruse people. One world government anyone?
http://redefininggod.com
Equating PCR with Alex Jones is a huge insult to PCR.
Alex Jones is a loud mouth carnival barker who sucks Jew cock and idiots send them their money. Most of the idiots are unemployed morons.
I read this link. I suppose the prophet Daniel wrote a script 3,000 years ago about the reformation of Israel in 1947? When you read it you'll come to a part where you will need a calculator. A Junior High school student could figure this math out but it doesn't explain how Daniel could make such an accurate prediction at the quantum level.
I love data and research. I am a doubting Thomas type. To rebuff Daniel on reformation date for example would be a long article and would require me to list and explain several data points. Not scripture but correlations equating to probability of Daniel making such a prediction.
Or timelines of Christ saying "I am with you to the end of the age." That is Aeon. It is astrology which was understood then and today. The age of Pisces is actually a solar cycle that began just after Christ's death and ended in December of 2012. That is what that fish symbol means on Christians car but they don't know this.
There are so many data points in metaphysics and physics about the end of our evolution I would have to write a ten page article and that would be the very dry version of what Christ spoke of regarding his prophecy or advanced understanding.
My point is not to make converts for some agenda. For metaphysics, both India and Mayan people were very close to today's physics, less detail and more hyposis driven than today. However, very interesting when correlated with other scientific data now.
This is why I don't read Infowars. Maybe PCR feels any media is good media or he is trying to be a voice of reason for some really twacked (but for some legitimate reasoning) out folks. Doesn't mean they aren't sharp in some regards its just extreme dorm porn 'We're all gonna die!" content is too much and not supported by theory with several data points to have a high level of confidence.
Fuck you Americans.
You must be quarantined and sterilized - along with all your monstrous creations like ISIS and the EU - in order to save the human race.
You are an abomination.
You tortured and murdered millions of human beings in the name of democracy and freedom.
You will continue to do so unless the human race stops you.
That's the writing on the wall.
The Americans are the principal threat to the survival of the human race.
First step: STOP using US Dollars. That'll bring the Beast to its knees quick.
P.S. Paul Craig Roberts is one of the few intelligent human beings that I know of who also happens to be an American citizen. As such, he doesn't qualify as a bona fide American. In other words, he's a human being.
Well stated, I am EX American (renounced).
The USA is starting to make Nazi Germany look like choir boys.
Didnt you say you were a purebreed aryan dutch whos family had been in holland for 600 years?
Well stated, I am EX American (renounced).

Agreed. Still got family back there though...
I have one brother in the USA. We don't even speak anymore because he has swallowed the kool aid.
Very sad

Very sad
This is a long process so I don't expect you to agree but if you take the time you may see that Nazi Germany was/is villified because, first, the German government issued their own currency. They became enormously wealthy (production) almost overnight because they were not paying private central banksters interest for their fiat money. Germany's potential to compete with France and Great Britain was a threat to the Zionist banksters of each of these country's (Rothchilds). The anti German propaganda was initiated well before war was declared and continues to this day. So, when you use language implying that "Nazi" is the ultimate evil you should get a perspective as to why the labeling became what it is today.
Yes, very true. I guess ''Nazi'' is the wrong term. Frankly the USA is full blown FASCIST mode and is threatening ANY country that doesn't kiss their ass. No nation can be sovereign unless you support the USA.
bolshevik is near to the mark. Cultural deconstructiom
But as Adolf said:
"For the folk-community does not exist on the fictitious value of money but on the results of productive labour, which is what gives money its value."
At least should. Germany did work up unemployment to 6.5-7 million before NSDAP, a entire society in economic ruins. When they did come to power they halved the unemployment in not much more than a year. Rebuilt Germany in all kind of ways, not only rearmament. Unemployed from other European countries came in thousands to work in Germany. Not to recommend Nazis that for sure did have some unpleasant stuff going on. But an example how all kinds of economical political goals can be achieved if one break lose from the banksters and money masters.
After the war an extensive denazification was necessary, one can say it still is on going.
Maestro - So based on your logic I should still hate the Russians and Chinese for murdering millions?
Perhaps the EU and ISIS were set up basd on an older geopolitical situation and hedging against resurfacing and that is what foreign policy PCR states in the article regarding Russia. It isn't working whatever the reasoning.
If you promise power sharing, the parties had best deliver or at least pause and reconsider based on situations changing. Is this over your head? For some of you it isn't.
You are putting words in my mouth. I'm not advocating hating Americans. Just acknowledging the fact that you maim and kill human beings in large numbers because you like it. It is only logical to deduct from this that you must be disabled from doing so - preferably in the most peaceable and least harmful (for human beings and the environment - not for you) manner possible. For the good of the universe and human beings in particular.
I am not trying to convince anyone that shit (Americans) smells like shit (Americans).
The author provided strongest argument for boycott of 2016 so-called elections ever. We need to free ourselves from all those illusions of America.
We need an alternative perhaps like this:

An excerpt:
The voting in the current political system is nothing but morally corrupting tool that extorts from us an approval for the meaningless political puppets of the calcified regime, in a surrealistic act of utter futility aimed just to break us down, to break our the sense of dignity, our individual will and self-determination since no true choice is ever being offered.
90 percent of Americans brains are pickled by ZioMedia and they worship KIKES like that pseudo comedian Jon Stewart.
You can take the average American on the street and ask them to point to Iran or Ukraine on the map and they will be clueless.
Ask them what the 3 branches of US govt are and expect some ludicrous answers.
Most don't even know who the Vice President is.
Clueless fucktards but DANGEROUS ONES because they are easily led to HATE anyone the media tells them to hate.
i.e Russia, Iran, China.
Lots of those fucktards are posting here.
What you say is true but not to worry because THE DONALD is going to fix it all, just like Tsipras fixed it for Greece.
Hey!!
It's DutchBoy again!
People like you always like to trash others. It makes you feel intellectually superior without having to prove yourself. While name calling you never challenge yourself to come up with an idea better than what you are trashing. You sir are a mental midget. Yes the Progressives have tried and are still trying to destroy America but if you can't come up with a better design for a country than what our founders had I would shut the hell up!!
Ahistorical is closer to godliness than communist atheism...in the eyes of the "chosen".
"God wills it" had NO CONSIDERATION for history. Nor does "Allah o Akbar".
That is the binding trait between those two faces of Abrahamic culture : you belong to the family of God's chosen by your CHOICE of our religion and culture.
The third strain being even more adamant : chosen race! You were born to WIN !
History is for the sons of Aristotle and Thucydides; the unwashed and the unknown. Those who grew up believing in "free will" and acquisition of knowledge, based on Plato/Artistotle's ethics (prudence, courage, Justice, temperance), allows Man to achieve his destiny as mortal.
Of no importance to those who believe their rule is INTEMPORAL as the CHOSEN.
America's rulers truly believe in 3 things as the true CHOSEN:
1° Massive Military supremacy; aka a 300/1 kill count in its favour. Its non negotiable.
2° The USD (now provisionally petrodollar-- Saud better watch out!) is God's given gift to MAnkind; its non negotiable.
3° What gets decided under the WH roof is good for HUMANITY. Its non negotiable. Caesar rules in purple; not Primus inter Pares!
The rest is open to debate; "free" but Google/HFT type "cyberguided" Oligarchy markets oblige; just like Henry Ford said : buy a Model T and I'll make it the colour you like; aka 50 shades of black!
PCR is showing he is not a man who believes that AMerica is the land of the free and of the CHOSEN.
HE has doubts! He must be a Greek disguised as an American, a southerner who has lost faith in America's godly destiny.
Ahistorical is for the "patriots" of the land of the brave! Come what may!
And, as a consequence "elections" are of no importance as now the Constitution; just a piece of paper; is INTERPRETED by Potus to serve the three tenets of American exceptionalism expressed above!
Wasn't Brzezinski one of the chief architects of the "Arab Spring"...with a little miracle grow-help from Soros?
What's Next?
As IS was pushed out of the city, the battle moved to the Arab villages on the city's southern fringe, where YPG and YPJ infantry, supported by airstrikes, penetrated further south towards the south Hasakah desert and IS heartlands. The likely next target will be the strategic desert town of al-Hawl, straddling the M4 highway between IS's Syrian possessions and the long-stagnant Sinjar battlefront.
Beyond al-Hawl lies the city of Shaddadi, the IS military capital for Hasakah, a region of rich oil fields, and a stronghold of pro-IS sentiment among the local Arab tribes. Unless the YPG can draw deeper support from the region's Arab population, and perhaps inspire significant defections from regime forces, the Kurdish-led forces will find these desert Arab areas harder to rule than conquer, with any displacement of the local population providing fertile ground for accusations of ethnic cleansing.
Within the next few weeks and months, the YPG will likely reach the limit of their natural zone of expansion in northeast Syria. Until then, their proven ability as the coalition's only effective boots on the ground here will see their conquests backed by western air power as long as they remain useful to the Pentagon. What happens after that is yet to be seen, and will be decided in Washington and Ankara as much as on the ground in Syria.
Drones will double. ocnus
What's Next? Port was given to chinese in Yemen.
Dunno if it makes much difference, but:
RE: Supreme Court (which is greatly complicit in destroying America this whole decade).
Bernie Sanders will ask any potential nominee about his position on reinstating Glass-Steagall. If the answer is no, he will not nominate such an individual. Sanders also believes Citizens United was a catastrophe. And has been saying this for a very long time (unlike some others). He will act accordingly on any potential nominee's answer to this question as well. One thing for sure, there will NOT be any chance of a "movement" behind Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton.
This article is so full of shit and confusion... Nuland is a disciple of Brzezinski, she is simply continuing the strategy established by Brzezinski ages ago (think Afghanistan in the 80's). Thing is, he didn't invent it either.
Caesar was playing off gallic tribes against each other, and playing off germanic and gallic tribes against each other two millenia ago.
Nuland is just a new face, and this article is either misinformed, or a poor attempt at white-washing Kissinger and Brzezinski.
my thoughts exactly. wtf? kissinger is a known nwo scumbag...same with brez... "Grand chessboard" anyone.. yet.. all of a sudden now PCR looks to their sagely wisdom? wtf?
the entirety of the world is theater at this point. not obummer's , not putin's, no single entity...
Agreed.
If no better source of opinion than Kissinger is available to get closer to the truth, then we're otally ucked.
Fire and the sword. Over which they have control, and which they would cheerfully use on any real rebels.
Oh, they've seen to it that when they go down, their slaves will go down with them. The Soviet Union was never the target of all those nukes---we were.
Coming from a place of morality, justice and fairness, PCR is one of the greatest Americans and humanitarians alive today.
