US Judo Hold On Europe

We have thus begun to identify and analyze all the signals of Europe’s attempts to gain independence for almost 10 years. Sadly, despite some worthy genuine attempts, Europe didn’t sufficiently seize the opportunity of the half decade from 2008 to 2013 (in particular the choice of a black president to lead the US lulled it to sleep).

A weakened US needed Europe’s force to maintain its supremacy; the control of this force was there for the taking since the EU had “omitted” to do what was necessary to anchor its political legitimacy; and since the spot was already occupied, European “insouciance” did the rest. In 2014 the US put a true judo hold on Europe, turning European force against itself and blocking our continent.

Since the Ukrainian crisis and despite the relative “freezing” of the situation linked to the Euro-Russian Minsk agreements, the bad news on Europe piles up: non-resolution of the Greek crisis, disastrous elections in Poland [1], deployment of US troops on various parts of the continent, blocking of the Euro exchange rate at near parity with the dollar [2], disruptive waves of immigration, support of the anti-change political forces at the head of a completely disrupted UK, European inability to implement the measures imposed by the huge crisis, aggressive takeovers of the European economy’s flagships by US businesses [3], etc. The more the world frees itself of the US, the more the US hand tightens around the European neck.

Thus Europe finds itself dragged into the crazy strategy of a hard-line America: attack the multi-polar world from all directions … of which Europe was, of course, potentially iconic. Russia eliminated from the international game thanks to the Ukraine; China eliminated from the international monetary and financial system thanks to the IMF rejection to include the Yuan in the SDR [4] ; Brazil reduced to the rank of speculative borrowers by the US rating agencies [5] …

Of course, the crisis itself undermines everyone «naturally », but malicious action is now so visible that we can’t ignore it without sinking into naivety: the world is bad enough so that acts of intransigence and non-cooperation can’t be interpreted other than the result of a deliberate wish that things should get even worse … for anything that isn’t American. As we have strongly emphasized throughout the first half of 2015, the solutions and cooperation to introduce around the crisis are henceforth sufficiently obvious so that the acts consistent with hijacking them cannot be anything other than malicious.

I suppose I should be happy that the US is "winning", but since current US tactics benefit mainly the oligarchs, bankgangsters, and corporations I still wear a frown most days.
