Alastair Crooke : What the US Will Do When It Fails

Financial globalism has had a grand design for world hegemony for more than two hundred years. It has come down to a war by this financial ruling class against civilizational states such as Russia, Iran and China. These states have existed for thousands of years and they will not allow themselves to be conquered by the Western barbarians, who have abandoned all their own moral and civilizational values in pursuit of world hegemony. Their only god is Moloch. This globalist grand design is now falling apart. The civilizational states are winning. The desperation of the financiers puts the world close to nuclear war. In the United States, we are seeing a plan emerging to use all of Europe as a proxy in a nuclear war with Russia, while the US stays out of it.
