“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen,” attributed to Vladimir Lenin

Since the regime in Washington’s barbaric assaults on Nigeria and Venezuela, Trump has been threatening Iran, Cuba, Mexico and Columbia. He has also ramped up imperialistic rhetoric regarding Greenland. And if you think Canada is immune to this Hitlerian posturing, think again.

The US is being led by the most openly fascist and criminally insane regime in its history. And that is saying a lot, since virtually every US presidential administration, Republican and Democrat alike, has committed horrendous war crimes and crimes against humanity. This includes the previous one which greenlighted and fueled the current genocide in Gaza.

But the current arrangement of power has not only continued and expanded upon these crimes, it is thoroughly disconnected from reality. It is a death cult. And its cult leader is like a trapped animal. A malignant narcissist whose crimes against children, rampant greed and corruption, and a life built upon lies are finally collapsing in on him. And that makes him even more dangerous and destructive than ever before.

The next few weeks may be the most harrowing ones in the 21st century. What the Trump regime does in this time could lead to an unimaginable catastrophe. Regardless of how histrionic this might sound, the choices made by this regime could decide the course of history for generations to come, perhaps even the fate of organized human life on earth.

The wars to come will solely be resource wars and they will echo imperialist wars of the past. As the American Empire struggles to maintain its waning soft hegemony, it will attempt to grab every single resource in its “sphere of influence” by force. And that latter term is important, because it is the contemporary parlance of empire in the 21st century.

If anyone thinks this sounds hysterical after everything that has happened thus far, their head is buried in sand far deeper than any ostrich could ever hope to plumb.
