The War Against Ordinary Americans
Paul Craig Roberts
The Saker is a level-headed person. I take it seriously when he spells out the threat to Trump’s presidency presented by the paradoxical alliance of the ruling oligarchs with what purports to be the “liberal/progressive/left.” It is amazing that the “liberal/progressive/left” are aligned with war and not with peace and are aligned with the OnePercent against the working class, whom they despise as “Trump deplorables.”
The Saker believes that Trump is under serious threat of being overthrown and that he must strike first or go down. http://www.unz.com/tsaker/a-color-revolution-is-under-way-in-the-united-states/
As my readers are highly intelligent, I am not surprised that some of them have arrived at the same conclusion as The Saker. Here is what one had to say:
I am totally astounded by the madness–even at formerly reasonable left-liberal websites. Alternet is one big hysteria factory. Although Counterpunch has had good articles by Mike Whitney, you (I presume, since I read your articles on your website), Diana Johnstone and a few others, I can’t believe how they’ve jumped in, too. I’ve been reading CP since the beginning of the newsletter in the 90s. Until this year, they were (after yours) my go-to website when I turned the computer on. I can’t believe they have a new article titled “Beyond Resistance – Defeating Trump’s Burgeoning Dictatorship”. And another: “Democracy in Exile and the Curse of Totalitarianism”. And another: “Muslim Bans, White Supremacy and Fascism in Our Time”. Patrick Cockburn has an article titled: “Trump’s Muslim Ban Will Only Spark More Terrorist Attacks”. Even the World Socialist Website has gone bananas.
Almost all of the German left-mainstream sites have gone insane. On the one hand, it seems like almost every protest group, in the end, has a source of money from Soros. On the other, it seems like 40% of the population must have been put through an MK-Ultra program. How could such mass hysteria otherwise be produced?
This is the level of argument with which protesters oppose Trump’s presidency: http://ijr.com/2017/01/790842-protester-calls-on-crowd-to-start-killing-people-wait-till-you-find-out-what-she-does-for-a-living/?utm_source=email&utm_campaign=morning-newsletter&utm_medium=owned
Readers share my amazement that there are large numbers of people so stupid as to think that a ban on Muslim immigrants is far worse than murdering Muslims in seven countries for fifteen years. Bush and Obama conducted genocide against Muslims over the course of four presidential terms, and no protesters sought their impeachment for what are most certainly war crimes and crimes against humanity. But Trump’s perfectly legal immigration action is alleged to be grounds for impeachment!
The protesters are completely nonsensical, so much so that it must be an orchestration. As the protesting websites, if not all of the protesters in the streets, accept the 9/11 storyline and the hoax “war on terror” that the storyline justifies, it follows logically that Muslims, already “terrorists” by definition (just ask the neoconservatives and Israel), fleeing their death and destruction by Washington might harbor thoughts of harm to Americans. Considering the ruling storyline, to let them in would be irresponsible.
But not to the protesters. It wasn’t the killing of their families and destruction of their homes and countries that might make Muslims into terrorists. It is banning them from entry as refugees that turns them into terrorists!
Try to imagine the absurdity of political leadership in the US and Europe during the 21st century. Western governments inflicted so much death and destruction that they created millions of Muslim refugees in order to accept as immigrants peoples who might harbor thoughts of revenge.
Are we to conclude that there is no such thing in the US and Europe as a liberal/progressive/left, only Soros-funded protesters for hire, as in the orchestrated Maiden protests in Kiev and today in Macedonia and Hungary?
Correct or not, this is the conclusion of many.
Illegitimate protests discredit all protests. Could we be witnessing the ruling oligarchy using its pawns to discredit in advance valid protests at the time when they move to reassert their control?
An astute citizen of Hungary sees similarity between the protests against Trump in the US and the Soros-orchestrated protests against the government of Hungary:
Dear Dr. Roberts, Being the citizen of Hungary, a country heavily infested by Soros-financed NGO’s, and with a government that is openly anti-Soros, it breaks my heart to see the USA in a situation very much like what we have had to put up with since 2010, the year when Viktor Orban won a two-thirds majority, which he won again in 2014. Today, there is one piece of experience that is, I think, crucial for us, Hungarians, to share with the USA. It is this: nothing is sacred or too dear for Soros, his NGO’s and associates of all stripes in their fight for power. This has been a concept quite hard to come to terms with for many of us in Hungary. They will sacrifice the country, the future, the people, they will sacrifice anything, just to (re-)gain power. As I follow news from the USA, I see photos of crowds that appear to be filled with hatred. They are like the (fortunately quite diminished) crowds paraded around by the Hungarian opposition parties, who like to call themselves “democratic” as opposed to the government elected to office by the people, which they refer to as “fascist, nazi, anti-democratic, anti-semitic” etc. These crowds are the embodiment of hypocrisy. Chanting slogans of “love”, they act out of pure hatred, for power, and refuse to be reasoned with. They refuse to consider facts. They call themselves liberals, but act against liberty through exercising total intolerance. I assume that the people who voted for President Trump are patriotic. If my assumption is correct, this also means that it will take quite some time, until the reality sinks in that Soros, his NGO’s and allies will trample down, unhesitatingly, the nation and the empire that they seek to rule unchallenged. This is because they do notrule for the people. They need the power to be in the position to exploit the nation and the empire, for their own benefit. This is not an easy thought to come to terms with for a patriot. The sooner the US electorate understands this, the more resistant it can become against the propaganda campaign and high visibility demonstrations so happily covered by the mainstream media. It is important to keep in mind that the room to maneuver President Trump has is directly proportionate to the popular supporthe enjoys, at any given time. Dr. Roberts, thank you for all your valuable work invested into making the world a better – and safer – place, for the benefit of all Mankind. Kind regards, Anita

Postcard made after the liberation of the Netherlands in World War 2 (1945)
That’s because they didn’t understand what had happened.
The lying Dutch government pretended that they were strictly neutral, but they weren’t and had given in the British pressure from Churchill (just like Norway) and quietly had agreed to allow overpass to British and French troops to directly attack the Ruhr area from Dutch (and Belgian soil):
https://gerard1945.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/07b.jpg
Proof that the Dutch government had provided the French army with coupons to pay for gas at Dutch gas stations while moving via the Netherlands into the Ruhr area.
Exactly as von Ribbentrop had accused the Dutch government of doing:

(bottom-right)
If the Dutch would have known how Amsterdam and other big Dutch cities would look like in 2015 under Anglo-Zionist rule, they would be screaming for the German-Nazis to return:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjzNnfIirm0
It is not as bad as Anglo cities, but it comes close.
The Dutch btw delivered the per capita largest contingent to the SS in Europe, apart from Germany.
Her an interview with one of the most prominent anti-Islamic fighters in the Netherlands Joost Niemoller:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOCrwh8nIzQ
In the interview they discuss his latest book “Kwaad” (“Angry”), where he describes the depressed mood among the Dutch about the way their society is developing under “mass migration”, exactly like the Americans from the Heartland.
It is this mood that will lead to a similar electoral result as just happened in the US.
Everything in Europe is preparing for the big blow, like in North-America, and soon folks like you and folks like me will be shooting each other.
Or as your Mencken prefers to put it:
A nation too long at peace becomes a sort of gigantic old maid.
We have been programming our iPhones for too long. Time for some action and drama.

Poor cloggie wants so much to be an american conservative. If you want to be an american clog, you should be sitting on your obese ass in front an obscenely huge flatscreen watching the Stupid Bowl while stuffing your cake hole. That’s 9 hr’s of commercials for corporate frankenfood, horse piss beer and new cars with 10 minutes of football action played by a bunch of wife beaters and criminal semi literate steroid junkies.
You’re definitely fucking stupid enough to qualify as an average american.

And why do you think I am interested in Alternet (Wikipedia: “AlterNet is a progressive activist news service”), let alone the ramblings of an imbecile and a notorious white man hater like Paul Krugman?

In the end, the power they now have will go away, but it’s a very difficult and dangerous time until then. The future is represented by Mayor Bill DeBlasio of New York, “but Ted Cruz of Texas is still out there.”
No mr Krugman, the only ones who are losing the country are you folks. Oh Veh!

Ap, Trump has all the tools he needs to be an open dictator. Both of his predecessors paved the way with Executive Orders (567 of them) giving him powers not seen since the Constitution was written. The US is still is a ‘state of emergency’ since 9/11. The question is: Will he use them? We shall see, but it would not be a surprise to me if he did.
Anyone who doubts his new powers should check out:

Clog & Davy, is that “Liberal” enough for ya? See how fucking stupid that shit is? It’s the same as that right wingnut shit and drivel you two keep spewing – the other side of the coin. Why not post your non stop political drivel at Alternet or dailykos or Rachel Maddow’s blog where the “Liberals” hang out and can see it and we can’t?
America makes up 5% of the world’s population and most are so fucking arrogant that they think everyone one of the 7.5 billion humans has to be either liberal or conservative. There can be no other views than American ones. They invented everything and everything and everyone revolves around them.

You mean that I identify with cucks like Glenn Beck?
There is little worth “conserving” in the commie rat hole called the West (other than our majestic heritage from before the Anglo-Soviet disaster); liberal modernity needs to be toppled. So I am not a conservative and have more affinity with these “alt-right” folks:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n3dhOKntj4
Even more interesting is the verbal confrontation between Spencer and this “liberal” media Jew David Pakman and a slick dialectician, like they all are (“people of the book”):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wex6QeBiAWs
Folks like Pakman, who own America, have one objective only: to ram the European-Americans into minority status as quickly as possible through mass-immigration.
If you follow the interview you see that the European-Americans will unlikely escape by themselves and probably need experienced help from their older brothers in Europe, who have dealt with the problem numerous times before.
America is maybe not as hopeless as Canada, as the US has been an independent country for more than 100 years between 1783-1900 (where Canada is still a UK colonial resource), but American nationalism is still very fragile.
Way out: Marine le Pen could join Trump and Putin after May; next all efforts should be concentrated in toppling Merkel, the worst of them all. Next abolishing sanctions, replace the EU with “Paris-Berlin-Russia” and rapidly set up a huge European army that can intervene in North-America if chaos breaks out there and repeat the stunt of 1776. This time not the British will be removed from power but another group.
