If the US Loses Syria, the US Loses its Empire
US threatens Russia, China for not supporting campaign of terror in Syria.
by Tony Cartalucci
July 6, 2012 – The US’ increasingly unhinged rhetoric reached a new level of absurdity this week as US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called on Western nations and their Arab proxies to “make it clear that Russia and China will pay a price because they are holding up progress” in regards to the US’ premeditated campaign of terrorism and violent regime change in Syria.
It was made public as early as 2007 by Seymour Hersh in his report “The Redirection” published in the New Yorker that the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia and others were gathering, funding, arming, and deploying a front of violent sectarian extremists, many with ties to Al Qaeda, to undermine, destabilize, and eventually lead to the overthrow of the governments of Lebanon, Syria, and Iran. The violent campaign was rolled out publicly in the wake of a similarly premeditated geopolitical ploy, the so-called “Arab Spring,” and has since then been clearly exposed as the work of violent terrorist networks. Ironically, these terrorist networks are those allegedly the impetus of the “War on Terror,” now paradoxically being funded, armed, and politically backed by the West.
It was reported that Libyan terrorists led by Abdul Hakim Belhaj, commander of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG), a US State Department-listed “Foreign Terrorist Organization,” had joined the so-called “Free Syrian Army” (FSA) along with sectarian extremists from Iraq who specialize in the indiscriminate terrorist bombings now ravaging Syria.
In fact, the true nature of Syria’s “rebels” has become so well known, that recent attempts to sway public opinion with continued, but unsubstantiated reports of “atrocities” aimed at demonizing the Syrian government have been met with skepticism, doubt, and even indignation by the public – giving nations like Russia and China not only the opportunity to defy Western dictates, but a moral imperative to do so as well.
Collapsing Legitimacy Leads to Collapsing Empires
The global hegemony of Wall Street and London has been built behind a facade of “human rights,” “freedom,” and “democracy.” As these principles are eroded back home in the West, their use for dressing up otherwise naked imperialism, corporate monopolization, and military aggression abroad has become overt and increasingly ineffective.
While the US Secretary of State attempts to blame Russia and China for “holding up progress” in the West’s campaign of premeditated destabilization in Syria, it is more likely that the West’s own loss of legitimacy is the true reason it has not successfully convinced the world to go along with what is increasingly appearing to be a self-serving and very untenable agenda.
Should the US fail in its attempts to overthrow the government of Syria, and quite likely even if it does manage to succeed at this late hour, so much damage has been done to the West’s credibility, as well as to the credibility of its allegedly independent institutions, that future gambits will be even more difficult to execute. As the West’s economy and geopolitical power crumbles and its reach becomes less subtle and more adversarial, shareholders will seek more secure investments, financially, politically, and even tactically.
Maintaining an empire relies on an immense global infrastructure the West still possesses – but it is an infrastructure that is meeting competition from not only rival hegemonies, but from within individual nations as well, on both a national and grassroots level. Empires are also built on psychological factors such as faith in one’s institutions and fear of one’s military prowess. The West has been increasingly faltering in all respects in a world where these concepts are becoming increasingly challenged by shifting social, economic, and technological paradigms.
What the West should be doing is positioning itself for this changing world – instead it is clinging to a crumbling empire, scrambling to build a global paradigm rendered antiquated long before it has even been implemented. Boycotting the corporate-financier interests behind this attempt at establishing global hegemony will accelerate and ensure its failure – while resolving ourselves to creating genuine institutions on a local and national level for and by the people will ensure that we are not left in disarray once these corrupt globalist institutions are rendered moot.

The emperor has no clothes! An excellent article.
The “Jewish” narrative is a Lie.
Israel is a people NOT a place for zionazi psychozoids.
Proselytes to Talmudic Judaism from Khazaria, The Ashkenazim “Yiddish” speaking so-called “Jews” are not Israel, NOR Israelites, Nor are they semitic…being played for SUCKERS/FRIERS by the “MONEYCHANGERS & PHARISEES”…who HATE TRUTH AND JUSTICE….because it’s sooooo “JEWISH”….

TRUTH PREVAILS….read Matthew 13.
Great comment! I’m Glad to see others who know the real identity of these so-called “Jews”. Keep preaching!
When a violent criminal has been found out, that is when they are at their most dangerous and potentially suicidal. If they can’t fake a revolution in Syria and Iran, expect all out nuclear war.
Tough talk from the might mouthpiece, China can afford to put their money where their mouth is and dump all their US bonds, can the US afford this?
The Clintons have US Navy Admiral , US Commerce department head, and Forester, and Mena huge drug running, mysterious boys died, and many sex scandals. Hillary thinks she can kill anyone, a psychopathy, yet, she acts having the power more than Obama. USA serves her dark purpose.
the united states does not have a empire. i wish we would be so lucky. americans don’t want a empire. never have . never will. its not in our nature. what we want is to be left alone. however, the actions of our military forces are the result of jewish hegemony over our government and our economy etc. when the jews took over england they used its army to try and get what they wanted , worldwide. when that british power ebbed. they got someone else to help them. we are it for now. but soon we will no longer be of any use. so then they will probably use the chinese. it never ends until we as a people wake up and throw off the yoke of talmudic judaism backed up by jewish money. the new world order is jewish in scope and always was. it is written.
Send the jew to fight the illegal jew wars.
Bring my son home to fight for free speech and the right to print our own currency.
Ever since the fraud of killing the gentiles on the Ss Liberty the zionazis are sending more and more gentiles to die.
Germans kill european jews- give them arab land.
Jews kill the unarmed on the SS Liberty- take more arab land.
We in America hope the Syrians win. Then we can throw out our marxist jewish govt.
Go ASSAD!!!!!!!!
When an analysis and assessment is this excellent and well written and presented, there is nothing to comment on other than to bestow praise and gratitude upon the writer.
What a shame that these two great people of the Unite States and Israel have lost the vision and sensabilities that made them so great and respectable for so many decades have stoop down to so much destruction for an illusive expansion of some vague empire dream at a cost the cost of millions of lives and uncalcuable material losses that generations to come will not be able to generate. The money and the resources that are being directed toward a very destructive actions of both of these people could have been the sea of peaceful changes that could have brought so much relief of hunger, disease and pain in this world. Everyone knows that nothing good would come out the present policies of both of these countries that has turned the world upside down for nothing but total destruction and set us all back a 100 years or more of progress that could’ve been ours and of those of future generations!
If civil war start in the US , the bankers and all sources of political bribery should be exterminated , that should be a priority , to removed the roots of the problems
The worth enemy ‘s of the Americans citizens are their own naif system who has let’s the worms infiltrate the pear
The constitution should be latter more protected for the future against this risk of infestation .
US citizens be sure you will never be free again , if you do not fight for it , like in 1776 remenber SPOLIATIS ARMA SUPERSUNT
When it comes to Central Asia and the Middle East, Israhell is the problem. The US Government is totally infested with Talmudic, Zionist Jews; has been for over two decades. Congress, especially, is being held hostage to such organizations as AIPAC, who dictate US foreign policy. In other words, this Government takes its orders from Tel Aviv. Now, is this national sovereignty? I don’t think so.
I Agree with JGavin 100 percent!!!!
GO GO GO And Win
We can all do our part to end the hostile imperialism. We must all sacrifice now for a better future for posterity. Stop buying crap you don’t need, stop banking with the big 5, stop charging things on credit cards. If you are a player in the market discover a new way to make a living or start your own market. Help one another with things they need and in turn you will be helped. We must end the atrocious killings. It is us the people of the united states that fund the war machine. Just stop. Stop caring about all the selfish crap you care about and think for the better of the whole. Grow a conscience. If we all lead by example it will become viral and an end to this madness will happen. All of the common “people” of the world should be united in this effort, no people of any nation is our enemy, nor ours their enemy.
That is the reason Halliburton has been sending mercenaries into Syria, to throw people out of windows (with glee), shoot tiny babies and children, and attack Christians, it’s a risk they feel financially free to take.
What has Dick Cheney & Friends got to lose?After all, they are to this day making lots of money, aren’t they?
Curse The United States of America and all who worship the war Whore slut.
“The US’s unhinged rhetoric….”???????????
How ’bout Hilary Clintons unhinged rhetoric?
Your article Tony Cartalucci is unreadable as it stands.
Don’t blame the whole USA for that woman. She speaks for the insane country of Israel not the US, and then only for its military mental cases running their government, who also btw run your State Department, over which Hilary Clinton nominally presides. She is an embarrassment to herself and every word she utters is a joke except that she is the Secretary of state and the joke is a bad one.
War is a scam…9/11 was a scam Iraq was a scam war and Syria ..a War there is a scam if it happens!
I,d trust a yank as far as i could throw one_seeing as they,re a big fat bunch of twats_that,s not very far. P.S. the only Marines worth a wank are the ROYAL variety
The Confederate States of America tried to defeat the US government but no help was available from any european country at the time.The CSA is still vilified in most country’s history books but they were right all along.If the US has another civil war,will european contries side with the rebels and destroy the corrupt US government?The American civil war was not about setting ni66ers free,it was about setting the South free from the oppressive US government.The US government will make war on it’s own people when they don’t have another country to make war on,the US civil war is proof of that.Do you really think white men at that time would leave their families and most likely get killed just to set a few ni66ers free?
VERY TRUE IN MY OPINION BUT WAR IS THE WORST
