The Real War is waged Underground

While American defence corporations concentrate on the production of massive, cost-intensive traditional military hardware the real war is being waged asymmetrically with a minimum of financial expenditure by the forces now wreaking havoc on the United States of dream and denial. The USA is in fact hobbled by its greedy corporations intent only on short term profits at any cost, including ruining the nation, and as these corporations and banks have no national allegiances little remains to support the current status quo and the ideology of full spectrum bullshit. And on it goes, the singularly (profit) driven companies refuse to cease their highly profitable traditional arms and useless surveillance technology production, which are ineffectual for fighting the real war being waged as I write.

Large corporations and banks are currently choking on funds they have stollen from the nation due to stagnation -- money only has value if it ‘moves.’ The concentration of wealth has in fact led to the economic crisis America now faces. The American economy is in fact dead and only continues (temporarily) by the excessive and fatal printing of worthless paper money, however, the value of this paper garbage continues to be supported by its remaining linkage to oil and resource trading, but no for long, as all global indicators suggest.

Powerful emerging nations, supported by Russia and China, have no interest in supporting a failed currency and economy; they are also cognisant of the fact that ‘multi-nationals’ could care less about any particular nation as their name suggests; mega-corporations will simply enter into relationships with emerging economies as they have no choice -- and so ends the short-lived corporatocracy of the USA.

It should also be mentioned that the 2008 financial crisis was the fatal blow that killed the American economy -- and it cannot be stressed enough that the cause was the absurd concentration of wealth in the fewest possible hands, the hands in fact that brought the house down. Had wealth been distributed and shared throughout the nation it would have been impossible for the American economy to die overnight as it did -- economists are aware of the folly of wealth concentration but are loath to articulate that the equitable distribution of wealth is the safest buffer against all forms of economic crises, probably due to socialist connotations. So the economic problems the US faces today were completely avoidable; however, as the US government is owned by the banks and corporations (‘of and for the people,’ my arse) it was paralysed and unable to curtail impending disaster.

I have covered the above in broad and general terms merely to highlight that the largest fake or real economies continue to be powerless when faced with new methods of asymmetric warfare being waged successfully at times by the most economically impoverished nations -- in many instances all it takes is a computer and internet link to devastate any corporation or bank, as they all depend on digital infrastructures -- it’s all just too easy, I am told.

Nonetheless, the most effective weapon that asymmetric warriors have at their disposal are new instantaneous communications channels to effectively sow discontent and disillusionment in any given population -- to be specific, American covert methodologies used to destabilise other nations have boomeranged.

The irony is that America developed the most effective ‘weapons’ of asymmetric warfare which are now being used by more skilled operators to defeat it.
