912 – Monsters to destroy—for the neocon agenda

“On July 4, 1821, John Quincy Adams delivered the most-remembered speech of his career. The oration’s resounding climax included several famous lines – that America ‘goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy,’ for example, and that an America that aspired to world leadership, even in the name of noble ideas, would be led astray: ‘She might become the dictatress of the world. She would be no longer the ruler of her own spirit.’ Even as American foreign policy has warped in many of the ways Adams foresaw, it has been unable to bury his powerful words.” (-from the ‘John Quincy Adams Society’ website)

It is in this light that controversial issues like America’s foreign policy, the war in Ukraine, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, globalism, a one world government, and significantly – Zionism and the neocon movement – are now being discussed. Complicating the discussion is the constant matter of definition and context.

“Narratives are built by removing history,” observes Salim Mansur, so as to “serve the interest of whoever you are advocating for.”

Not surprisingly, with the re-introduction of the relevant history into the narrative, one soon discovers that the narrative often changes radically, rarely serving the narrow interests of those promoting the original. Continue reading »

Neoconservatism Part III — America Betrayed

In the third installment of our discussion on neoconservatism, Professor Salim Mansur examines the post-Soviet era, a period marked by complex dynamics and post-Cold War tensions. Rather than embracing Russia as a potential ally and a nascent democracy recovering from decades of communism and autocratic rule, the United States eventually came to cast it as a new “monster to destroy.”

This shift undermined America’s founding principle of rational isolationism with limited international engagement as it sought to maintain hegemony in an emerging multipolar world. The pivot fueled hostility both domestically and internationally, channeling billions into the military-industrial complex and perpetuating endless conflict.

Central to this narrative is the unwavering defense of Israel, which, alongside the focus on Russia, shapes American foreign policy. Crafted by neoconservatives and embraced by hawks across administrations since George H. W. Bush, this dual focus has defined U.S. global strategy. The neoconservative agenda, explicitly outlined in the Project for the New American Century (1997), drove NATO expansion and heightened tensions in the Middle East.

Ultimately, neoconservatism has betrayed America’s early ideals, costing countless lives, squandering vast fortunes, and tarnishing the reputation of a once-great nation.

870 – Within earshot—of the end of America

The failed July 13 2024 attempt to assassinate Donald Trump has captured the world’s attention and imagination. Can Trump’s survival be attributed to lady luck or was it divine intervention?

Of course, those disappointed or outraged that Trump survived certainly would not ask such a question. For them, this was a failed attempt to rid the world of a Hitlerian fascist dictator, that fake political caricature created by the fake news media.

Even so, notions of divine intervention were less inspired by the fact that Trump survived an assassination attempt than by the fact that he was shot in the ear. It was Trump’s ear injury that changed the dynamic of the event by providing objective evidence of an assassination attempt that could not easily be denied.

The reality that America came within earshot of its own destruction also served to catapult the event within earshot of the entire world community. Ironically, had Trump not been injured at all, July 13 might never have attained its symbolic status that will now be embedded into American history and lore for years to come.

More than anything else, July 13 was a sobering reminder that we live in one of the most dangerous times in history, afflicted by a ‘deep state’ death cult of the Left that only wants to maintain power and perpetual war.

On the other hand, July 13 was also a refreshing reminder of the power of the internet in an information war never before accessible to individuals and groups outside of the establishment media.

With the realities of history challenging the fake news narratives of years gone by, independent and objective reports on those histories are now surfacing that appear to reflect a current truth about our so-called ‘democracies’ that is unfortunately Just Right: namely, that reprehensible and evil people really control the world.

869 – The Canadian Connection—Globalism and Immigration

In the shadow of the Trump assassination attempt, it is important never to forget that that shadow was cast by global events that reveal a growing public opposition to the Left and to globalism. Little has actually changed on the world political stage – other than a speeded awakening of many who were still unaware of the threat to their own lives. For the deep state, the assassination attempt was just business as usual, given its death cult ideology and record.

With opposition to wars raging in the mid-east and Ukraine, with domestic protests and riots occurring in most of the European nations, and with European election results revealing an emerging trend to the Right, the ‘deep state’ has a lot to worry about. It is encountering a powerful rejection of its mission to flood established cultures with unregulated immigration and to establish a one-world globalist state.

Robert Vaughan and Salim Mansur took a look at the recent election results in France, where that country’s unique run-off electoral system exposed some political trends that might otherwise have gone unnoticed in other nations with differing electoral systems.

However, their reference to “the French connection” within the context of the European elections concerned the French connection with Canada, a country that owes much of its history to France, and which also exhibits certain parallel current political trends with France.

Like France, Canada is being threatened by globalism and unregulated immigration. And also like France, hidden within each country’s legitimate immigration history are the millions of ‘new’ French and ‘new’ Canadian citizens who can no longer be separated from the cultures of those nations. As an example, despite Robert and Salim’s own very different historical connections to Canada, they each identify as Canadian in a country that, like France, must attempt to restore its own history in order to preserve the Canadian culture and identity.

While many Western nations have “suicidally crashed their own histories,” France appears to be attempting to recover its French history. In contrast, Canada’s history as a “peace keeping” nation continues to be lost thanks to its support of foreign wars and a lack of leadership in Canada. “Where are the Canadian voices?” laments Salim.

That’s a question that remains to be resolved. If there’s one thing the globalist Left fears most, it’s anything that is Just Right, particularly when it’s the voice of the people speaking out against tyranny.

The French Connection—Globalism and Immigration

The poem “The Second Coming” by William Butler Yeats begins with the lines, “Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.” These verses are particularly apt in light of the recent French National Assembly elections, where President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist party suffered a significant defeat. As Professor Salim Mansur observes, “They have turned against the Center.”

The historical ties between France and Canada are profound, dating back to the era of Samuel de Champlain. Approximately one quarter of Canadians trace their ancestry to France, and Canada has fought two world wars on French soil. The two nations share an intricate and intertwined history.

In light of this historical context, it is crucial to examine the recent French election results, which saw Macron’s Centrist Ensemble fall to second place, while the Leftist New Popular Front and the Rightist National Rally gained ground.

Macron’s party faced a massive defeat as the French grew weary of both a globalist agenda and an increasing immigrant population. The New Popular Front addressed the globalist agenda in a manner reminiscent of Charles de Gaulle, rejecting the machinations of a Europe that would entangle them in a conflict with Russia. Meanwhile, the National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, focused on the issue of immigration.

Salim and Robert discuss the election results, which, contrary to the beliefs of many on the Right, are not entirely negative when viewed in full context amidst the looming backdrop of war.

844 – The empire strikes out | Salim Mansur

 Comments Off on 844 – The empire strikes out | Salim Mansur
Jan 242024
 


“A republic, if you can keep it.” Benjamin Franklin’s famous response (Sept 1787) to Elizabeth Willing Powel’s question: “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” was as much a warning as it was a description of an ideal America as a state in which the sovereignty resides in the people and the legislative and administrative powers are lodged in officers elected by them.

It is now 2024 and the republic to which he referred no longer exists. Were he alive today Franklin might be tempted to respond with “An empire – if you can defeat it” as the means of both defining the nation and of recovering its republican status.

Our guest Salim Mansur argues that America’s descent from a free republic to a coercive empire was accelerated and completed during the period between the election of Woodrow Wilson in 1912 and the installation of Joe Biden in 2020. “We are now in a post-constitutional America,” he says.

America’s republican status was dismantled thanks to the imposition of the federal income tax, the 17th amendment which “democratized” the election of senators, the establishment of the federal reserve (1913) and other legislation making “America now the world’s biggest threat to individual rights.”

As an empire, America suffers from the “disease of the empire” which Salim describes as a nullification of freedom at home and the coercion of people abroad. Ultimately all empires are little more than military rule.

Despite all of this corruption and power, the good news is that the vast majority of “we the people” has begun to see America and its global empire for what it has become. With world-wide protests and demonstrations against their own politicians, to say nothing of the unprecedented popularity of Donald Trump, the rulers of the empire are beginning to be uncomfortably aware that their empire may soon be struck out.

For that reason, we are in “uncharted waters” when it comes to predicting what the empire’s elites may do to strike back in their state of desperation. It looks like 2024 will be the decisive year in which Americans will choose between living in an empire or in a constitutional republic. So far it looks like they’ll choose to do what is Just Right by striking out an empire and choosing to keep a republic as their home’s base.

Rogue State–From Republic to Empire | Salim Mansur

Upon leaving the Constitutional Convention of 1787 Benjamin Franklin was asked about the kind of government created by him and the other delegates. His response was, “A republic, if you can keep it.”

If Franklin were alive today he would say that the American People had failed. What initially started out as a bold experiment in liberty has transformed into an empire engaged in a “Forever War,” led by the very type of elites the War of Independence was waged to overthrow.

Our guest, Professor Salim Mansur, has described the United States of 2024 as a “rogue state” and the most dangerous enemy of freedom based on individual rights.

Salim puts the start of the Republic’s fall in 1912 with the election of Democrat Woodrow Wilson. It was under Wilson that the 17th Amendment to the Constitution had US Senators elected by the People rather than by the legislatures of the states they were supposed to represent, altering a key aspect of the Republican nature of the country. This change made the Senators no different than the elected members of the House of Representatives.

Adding to Wilson’s ignominious administrative term was the signing of the Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment, which allowed for a federal income tax. No longer did the federal government require the financial backing and consent of the States to wage war. Upon his reelection in 1916 and with these new tools at his disposal, Wilson quickly entered into the Great War already waging in Europe.

If one were to bracket the fall of the Republic at one end with Wilson’s Administration, on this end of history the other bracket would be the installation of the Usurper Joe Biden, installed into the position of President during a ceremony attended not by the American People, but by a select group of elites in a Capital surrounded by razor wire and 25,000 armed guardsmen.

There could be no greater nor obvious symbolism than that spectacle to demonstrate that Franklin’s Republic has fallen and that a New World Order headed by an American Empire has begun.
