Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)2 Comments

Brian Berletic:

“Gen Z” Mobs Strike Again – Target Mexico – Evidence So Far of Who is Behind it US NED-funded media like “Animal Politico” and US NED “Democracy Award” winner and former Mexican president/millionaire Vicente Fox are openly promoting the protests “organized” on mainly US-based social media platforms – as per VERIFIED US-engineered color revolutions elsewhere this year including Nepal, and dating all the way back to the so-called “Arab Spring” in 2011. The US destabilizing Mexico amid impending war on Venezuela in South America would reflect Washington’s acceleration toward, not “retreat” from its pursuit of GLOBAL hegemony – Latin America being located on the globe along with Africa, the Middle East, and Eurasia…

Last month, Luhaga Mpina, the leader of ACT-Wazalendo, another opposition party, was also disqualified, meaning Hassan contested only lesser-known opponents from minor parties.

[2012] Syria, Yemen, and America’s Quest for Imperial Dominance

Syria, Yemen, and America’s Quest for Imperial Dominance

US interest in Yemen is certainly not rooted in altruism or a desire to promote democratic ideals. On the contrary, it is the application of a long-standing geopolitical strategy to control international trade through the Mandab Strait and Suez Canal, access to African raw materials, and most specifically, block the expansion of Chinese economic influence in both the Middle East and Africa. For these reasons, the United States has a keen interest in both Yemen and Somalia, desperate to maintain chaos in those countries so as to prevent stable, nationalist leaders from emerging. In so doing, Washington once again shows itself to be an imperialist aggressor, interested only in maintaining and expanding the empire.
