The Bumbling Joe Biden led U.S. intelligence community has so completely stuffed up in the Geo-strategic arena that it is hard to comprehend the enormity of the ramifications. Suffice to say that major changes are happening.
The salient points…
1 U.S. influence in the Middle East is finished. The Chinese/Russian brokered Iran/Saudi normalization of relations is a dramatic realignment. As was pointed out by Alexander Mercouris, an Iran agreement to cease chasing nuclear weapons was likely part of the agreement.
2 Israel will need to take stock of the situation. Is its survival still dependent upon the U.S.? Does it need to look elsewhere for a security guarantee?
3 The U.S. presence in Syria is doomed. Will they go out with a bang or a whimper?
4 The loss of the Ukraine proxy war was another stupendous loss of face for the U.S. Again, will they go out with a bang or a whimper?
5 The N.A.T.O. nations are being forced to reconsider their loyalties. Do they continue down the doomed path of threatening Russia and do even more damage to their economies? Even the Poles are unusually quiet at the moment.
6 The E.U. itself has never been more fractured. Hungary is on a path to withdrawal. Will others follow – what about Italy?
7 The U.S. military bluff has been exposed for all the world to see. It is clearly not the dominant force that it once was, and that had been assumed by almost all. How will it respond? A graceful withdrawal from the world stage seems unlikely with such delusional oddballs running the show. Where will they lash out?
8 India is beginning to assert itself as an independent and major Asian military power.
9 Meanwhile, the world economy continues to implode. China is a major, but by no means the only, problem in that respect, but will their government be able to control the internal fallout? Will they need a diversionary tactic such as an invasion of Taiwan? Ironically, it is the Russian economy, pushed toward self-sufficiency as it has been through sanctions, that seems best prepared to weather the gathering world economic storm.
10 The W.E.F. has been exposed as a pontificating bunch of irrelevant nincompoops. Mighty academic warriors fighting yesterday’s war for a socialist new world order. Vale Klaus.
Bumbling Joe Biden’s faux presidency will feature prominently in the future dissection of why and how the U.S. descended so ignominiously and so rapidly. In truth, the process had been in motion for many decades, but boy, did he speed things up. For all the many faults of ‘Pax’ Americana, there was a predictability to it.
That has now passed.
We live in dangerously unpredictable times.
Oh, by the way, get your cash out of the banks and exchange it for real money and/or non-perishable food.
