All part of a grand plan from the US deep state hatched 30 years ago and commented on by retired general Wesley Clark based on what he heard from a former staff colleague in the Pentagon just ten days after 9-11. http://shortxxvids.com/big-brother/government/7-countries-in-5-years-dec-08-2024/

We note, in passing, the acquiescence so far of Saudi-Arabia and Jordan to the Israeli attacks, which include targets not merely in Iran but also in Lebanon and Syria.

Meanwhile, according to RT (read this yesterday evening), Riyadh and Ankara have issued a joint statement against Israel…

Supra-national Empire creates its own reality. Like all good vassals, every national government must align with the imperial agenda. Imperial agenda is visible in this Halford Mackinder’s quote, “Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland; Who rules the Heartland commands the World Island; Who rules the World Island commands the World." Empire must rule the Heartland; if not, it must create wars and chaos. The Rulers extend their realm by post-war(chaos) synthesis.

The hidden truths aren’t hidden; they “hide” in plain sight. We must become better at recognizing patterns. Those often reveal intent and from there we can discern the obscured agenda. Patterns should be treated more like evidence.

I'm reminded of--what was his name, Karl Rove--who (allegedly) said something like:

'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.'

I've heard that 'We're history's actors' part often enough (I'm a historian), and while it's not 100% wrong, it's also a question of time (and record-keeping).

Karl Rove probably thought he was talking about American Empire, but America is also a mere imperial vassal, although an important one. The most important decision like starting wars, unleashing bio-weapon jabs, and such, do not originate in the halls of any nominal government. Those are merely executed by them.

Well, Mr Rove appears to have been delusional back then, I agree.
