American Liberty Teetering on Edge of Abyss

by Paul Craig Roberts
In a new book that will infuriate the fake conservatives who inhabit the
Republican Party, Patrick J. Buchanan do***ents how British
self-righteousness, delusion and hubris destroyed both the British Empire
and
Western ascendancy in two unnecessary wars launched by a small cabal of
morons
that ruled Britain.
Churchill, Hitler, and the Unnecessary War shows that the two world wars
that
destroyed European civilization began when England declared war on
Germany,
thus dragging in the Empire, Commonwealth and United States. This was a
strategic blunder unparalleled in history. Mighty Britain emerged from
World
War II as an American dependency.
Buchanan cites such British notables as F.J.P. Veale, B.H. Liddell Hart
and
C.P. Snow to do***ent that it was Winston Churchill who committed, in
Veale’s
words, “the first deliberate breach of the fundamental rule of civilized
warfare that hostilities must only be waged against the enemy combatant
forces.” It was Churchill, not Hitler, who first targeted civilian
populations
in World War II and caused the structure of civilized warfare to collapse
in
ruins.
The Americans quickly adopted Churchill’s criminal policy of attacking
civilians, culminating in the outrageous use of nuclear weapons against
two
Japanese cities, the slaughter of Vietnamese civilians, and the ongoing
slaughter of Afghan and Iraqi civilians.
A popular American myth is that “the greatest generation” saved the world
from
Nazi tyranny. As Buchanan points out, the fact of the matter is that the
Normandy invasion in June 1944 played little, if any, role in Germany’s
defeat. By the end of 1942, Hitler had lost World War II at Stalingrad,
long
before any American troops appeared on the scene. What the Normandy
invasion
achieved 18 months later was to keep the Red Army from overrunning all of
Europe.
Although Buchanan’s book is about how the British destroyed themselves,
Buchanan is clearly thinking about America. In the closing pages, Buchanan
shows how the Bush regime has broken from the sound policy of President
Reagan
and is replicating the British folly of self-destruction. “There is hardly
a
blunder of the British Empire we have not replicated,” laments Buchanan.
The distinct American hubris that we are “the indispensable nation” and
the
braggadocio that we are an “omnipower” have us overcommitted in alliances
that
we cannot fulfill. Despite 25 percent of the Iraqi population killed,
injured
or displaced, the “world’s only superpower” cannot even control Baghdad.
To deal with the pointless war we started in Afghanistan, we have had to
sucker our NATO allies into a conflict that is no concern of theirs.
Militarily overextended and with a faltering economy and collapsing
currency,
the cabal of morons that rules America still hopes to attack Iran and
Syria,
and to drive Hezbollah from Lebanon.
American idiots in think tanks are busy at work drawing up plans about how
the
United States is going to check China and prevent her emergence as a power
beyond U.S. control. The Republican presidential candidate has boasted
that he
will challenge Russia and bring Vladimir Putin to heel.
Amazing. The world’s greatest debtor is going to take on the two powerful
countries with the largest trade surpluses. According to the World
Factbook,
an annual publication of the CIA, Russia’s 2007 current account surplus is
$465 billion and China’s is $363 billion. In contrast, the U.S. current
account deficit is $987 billion—an amount larger that the total deficits
of
all other countries in the world combined.
The out-of-pocket and already incurred future cost of Bush’s wars of
aggression is between $3 trillion and $5 trillion, every dollar of which
must
be borrowed. That comes on top of the unfunded liabilities of the U.S.
government totaling $53 trillion. By any account, the United States is the
world’s worst credit risk. The “mighty” United States relies on foreigners
to
finance its consumption, its wars and the daily operations of its
government.
