How
is it that the ‘religious’ neo-cons/Evangelicals (Hannity, Gaffney, https://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2019/06/20/irans-attack-require-us-to-double-down-on-the-regime/, etc.) are more hungry
for war and less desirous for peace than the seemingly more secular oriented
voices in the Old Right and elsewhere?
Answer: Their delusional Puritan-American belief in
their Godchosenness blinds them to reality and drives them to insane
actions. If the ‘chosen nation’ receives
an insult, it is the same as their angry, bloodthirsty God being insulted. They must avenge Him at all costs.
But
the hypocrisy goes further. The Holy
American Republic can go round the world murdering and maiming in the name of
making a buck for giant corporations (what is usually called euphemistically
‘protecting America’s vital interests’), but as soon as any of those countries
takes even a token stand to protect herself from American overlordship, they
are accused of trampling all that is right and just in the world and ruthlessly
beaten back into submission by the Shining City on a Hill. American economic sanctions on Venezuela,
Iran, and others are a prime ensample:
In
order to fully understand the insidious nature of the Venezuelan crisis, it is
necessary to understand the genesis of economic sanctions. At the height of
World War Two, President Truman issued an order for American bombers to drop
“Fat Man” and “Little Boy” on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing
140,000 people instantly. The gruesome images that emerged from the rubble were
broadcast through television sets across the world and caused unprecedented
outrage. The political backlash forced U.S. policy makers to devise a more
subtle weapon of mass destruction: economic sanctions.
The
term “weapons of mass destruction” (WMD) was first defined by the United
Nations in 1948 as “atomic explosive weapons, radioactive material weapons,
lethal chemical and biological weapons, and any weapons developed in the future
which have characteristics comparable in destructive effect to those of the
atomic bomb or other weapons mentioned above”.
Sanctions
are clearly the 21st century’s deadliest weapon of mass destruction.

Other
writers cite the numbers killed by these sanctions:
But
you will never hear Bolton, Pompeo, or any other Evangelical/phony conservative
decry those deaths; they are necessary for global American Manifest Destiny to
be achieved.
But
the hypocrisy goes into even darker corridors.
The warmongers constantly cite Iran as the biggest state sponsor of
terrorism. But they ignore Western
(including American) funding of terrorist groups and violent regimes
completely:
They
accuse Muslims of deception but then practice the same vice:
Mr
Laurence Vance aptly sums up the warmongers’ mental state when he says,
Sheer
Madness
Or is it
utter lunacy. I am speaking about U.S. foreign policy. People are debating
about whether the U.S. drone that Iran shot down was closer or further than 21
miles from Iran’s coast. I am inclined to not believe the lying U.S. government
and its military. But regardless, why are very few even questioning why the
United States flies anything anywhere near Iran or the Middle East? If Iran
flew anything within 500 miles of the East coast of the United States, the U.S.
government would call it an act of aggression.
Go
ahead Tom Cotton. Go ahead Tony
Perkins. Go ahead all ye demoniacs
thirsty for blood. If you want another
million deaths at the hands of another Holy American crusade in the Middle East
(https://www.salon.com/2018/03/19/the-staggering-death-toll-in-iraq_partner/), go ahead and shriek for
war. And may you find peaceful repose
with the worm and with the fire in Gehenna.
Southron,
leave this evil Union.

Holy Ælfred the Great, King of England,

Anathema to the Union!
