Ever since Tulsi Gabbard announced that she will be running for
President in 2020 her personality and candidacy have been a subject of heated
debates and after I posted a rather small message from
her, I have been getting panicked emails warning me that she is
a fake and that I not should “jump on her bandwagon” or otherwise endorse her.
So, first and foremost, I am not – repeat NOT – endorsing her in any
way shape or fashion.
However, I do find her and what
is taking place around her extremely interesting and I want to look at it a
little closer. This won’t be a review or analysis of her ideas, political
platform or chance of getting elected. Neither will I try to read her mind and
do what so many other folks are doing and confidently declare that I know what
her true values, ideas or plans are. I don’t.
But there are a few things
which can already be observed about her which I want to comment on.
First, one might imagine that
she would be the dream candidate for the Democratic Party: she is a female, she is not
White, she has impeccable “patriotic” credentials, she is obviously both very
good looking and very smart, she does not have any skeletons in her past (at
least none that we know of for the time being) and she is not associated with
the notorious Clinton gang. So what’s there not to like about her if you are a
Democrat?
Well, as we all saw, the
putatively “liberal” legacy Ziomedia hates Tulsi Gabbard with a passion. Maybe
not as much as that legacy Ziomedia hates Trump or Putin, but still – the
levels of hostility against her are truly amazing. This may seem bizarre until
you realize that, just like Donald Trump, Tulsi Gabbard has said all the right
things about Israel, but that this was not nearly “enough” to please the US
Ziolobby. Check out the kind of discussions about Gabbard which can be found in
the Israeli and pro-Israeli press:
This is just a small sample of
what I found with a quick search. It could be summed up “Gabbard is not
pro-Israel enough”. But is that really The Main Reason for such a hostility
towards her?
I don’t think so.
I believe that Gabbard’s real
“ultimate sin” is that she is against foreign wars of choice. That is really
her Crime Of Crimes!
The AngloZionists wanted to
tear Syria apart, break it up into small pieces, most of which would be run by
Takfiri crazies and Tulsi Gabbard actually dared to go and speak to “animal
Assad”, the (latest) “New Hitler”, who “gasses his own people”. And this is an
even worse crime, if such a thing can even be imagined! She dared to disobey her AngloZionist masters.
So, apparently, opposing
illegal wars and daring to disobey the Neocons are crimes of such magnitude and
evil that they deserve the hysterical Gabbard-bashing campaign which we have
witnessed in recent times. And even being non-Christian, non-White, non-male and
“liberal” does not in any way compensate for the heinous nature of “crimes”.
What does this tell us about
the real nature of the US society?
It is also interesting to note
that the most vicious (and stupid) attacks against Gabbard did not come from “conservative”
media outlets or journalists. Not at all! Most of the attacks, especially the
more vicious ones, came from supposedly “liberal” sources, which tell us that
in 2019 USA “liberals” do not refer to folks with liberal ideas, but to folks
who are hell-bent on imperialism and war; folks who don’t care one bit about
any real “liberal” values and who use a pseudo-liberal rhetoric to advocate for
war outside the USA and for a plutocratic dictatorship inside the USA.
As for Gabbard herself, she
already managed to publicly back-peddle to one obnoxious lobby (the homo lobby)
on the issue of marriage (see here, here, here and here) and I
fully expect her to cave in to the Zio-lobby just like Trump has been doing
every day since he made it to the White House. Apparently, US public figures
like Gabbard and Trump still don’t understand the simple fact that NO amount of
grovelling will EVER appease the Neocons or the Ziolobby (see here for
a perfect example of that attitude from Commentary).
This entire business about Rep.
Ilhan Omar also illustrated something very crucial to Donald Trump’s
personality. Let me explain:
In the bad old days of the
Soviet Union, one of the tricks used by the prison/camp administration to break
a prisoner (be he political or not) was to stick him into a cell with the
so-called “roosters”. In the slang of the Russian criminal underworld, the
“roosters” are the very lowest category of prisoners (in what is a rather
complex hierarchy): “roosters” are either homosexuals, rapists, child molesters
or men who have been down-ranked (“lowered” in slang) to that status as a
punishment for some kind of action which the criminals consider reprehensible
(like interacting with other “roosters”, mistakenly sitting down next to one,
not repaying a card-debt, etc.). I won’t go into all the details here, but
suffice to say that one thing which was well known in the Soviet jails/camps is
that somebody who has committed some kind of trespass can be “lowered” to the
status of “rooster” and that the prison/camp administration often uses these
man as “combat roosters” – they send them to attack and even rape some prisoner
who needs to be broken. And, needless to say, after you have been raped by such
“roosters” you yourself get that status for the rest of your life.
What Trump did in the case of
Rep. Ilhan Omar is act like a “lowered combat rooster”, sent to abuse somebody
else on the behalf of the prison/camp administration. Of all people, Trump
ought to know that accusations of anti-Semitism are absolutely, total hogwash.
This is just a verbal whip used by AIPAC/ADL/etc to beat up their opponents. In
fact, all Omar did was to say on Twitter that some members of Congress support
Israel because they are collecting money from Jewish groups like the American
Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Duh?! Is that really news to anybody?
Even Trump himself mentioned that during this campaign.
By the way, check out how Rep.
Ilhan Omar grills that sorry SOB Abrams here: http://thesaker.is/rep-ilhan-omar-vs-elliott-abrams/ .
This young lady clearly has more courage and integrity that all her colleagues
taken together!
But the Neocons have now “lowered”
Trump to the status of “rooster” and he now is acting like a willing “combat
rooster” for those who “lowered” him to that status, which makes Trump the
worst and most despised kind of “rooster”: one who willingly serves his own
rapists. See for yourself:
The amazing thing is that Trump
seems to be completely oblivious to how utterly dishonorable, spineless,
subservient, weak and cowardly he looks every time he tries to so crudely
brown-nose the Neocons. Apparently being a narcissist does not include the
ability to be aware of how others might see you.
In fact, one of two things are
most likely to happen next:
1. Tulsi Gabbard remains true
to her ideals and views and she gets no money for her campaign
2. Tulsi Gabbard caves in to
the Neocons and the Deep State and she become another Obama/Trump
Okay, in theory, a third option
is possible (never say never!) but I see that as highly unlikely: Tulsi Gabbard
follows in the footsteps of Trump and gets elected in spite of a massive media
hate-campaign against her and once she makes it to the White House she does
what Trump failed to do and appeals directly to the people of the USA to back
her in a ruthless campaign to “drain the swamp” (meaning showing the door to
the Neocons and their Deep State). This is what Putin did, at least partially,
when he came to power, by the way. Frankly, for all her very real qualities she
does not strike me as a “US Putin” nor does she have the kind of institutional
and popular backing Putin had. So while I will never say never, I am not
holding my breath on this one…
Finally, if Gabbard truly is
“for real” then the Deep State will probably “Kennedy” her and blame Russia or
Iran for it.
Still, while we try to
understand what, if anything, Tulsi Gabbard could do for the world, she does do
good posting messages like this one:
I don’t know about you, but I
am rather impressed!
At the very least, she does
what “Occupy Wall Street” did with its “1%” which was factually wrong. The
actual percentage is much lower but politically very effective. In this case,
Gabbard speaks of both parties being alike and she popularizes concepts like “warmongers in ivory towers
thinking up new wars to wage and new places for people to die“. This is all very good and
useful for the cause of peace and anti-imperialism because when crimethink concepts become
mainstream, then the mainstream is collapsing!
The most important achievement of Tulsi Gabbard, at least so far, has
been to prove that the so-called “liberals” don’t give a damn about race, don’t
give a damn about gender, don’t give a damn about minorities, don’t give a damn
about “thanking our veterans” or anything else. They don’t even care about
Israel all that much. But what they do care about is power, Empire and war.
That they really care about. Tulsi Gabbard is the living proof that the US
Democrats and other pretend “liberals” are hell bent on power, empire and war.
They also will stop at nothing to prevent the USA from (finally!) becoming a
“normal” country and they couldn’t care less about the fate of the people of
the USA. All they want is for us all to become their serfs.
All of this is hardly big news. But
this hysterical reaction to Gabbard’s candidacy is a very powerful and useful
proof of the fact that the USA is a foreign-occupied country with no real
sovereignty or democracy. As
for the US media, it would make folks like Suslov or Goebbels green
with envy. Be it the ongoing US aggression
against Venezuela or the reaction to the Tulsi Gabbard
phenomenon, the diagnostics concur and we can use the typical medical euphemism
and say with confidence: “the prognosis is poor”.
