Paul Wolfowitz said Washington's "first objective is prevent(ing) the re-emergence of (rival states), either on the territory of the former Soviet Union or elsewhere."
Paul Craig Roberts defines rival as "any country (able to defend) its interests or those of its allies against Washington's hegemon(ic)" ambitions.
America demands unipolar/New World Order dominance. It demands all nations bow to its will, or else!
It targets independent ones for regime change. Either by coups, targeted assassinations or wars of aggression. Obama pursues multiple regime change objectives. He's done so throughout his tenure. Paul Craig Roberts calls him "the world's worst terrorist."
He elevated state terrorism to an unprecedented level. He gave it new meaning. He has lots more mass slaughter and destruction in mind.

He didn't surprise. His address lasted a mind-numbing 45 minutes. He made painful listening.
All his speeches feature demagogic mumbo jumbo Big Lies. They drown out truth.
Two years ago, he lied about Libya. He claimed US-led NATO intervened to "cope with violent conflict, care for the wounded, and craft a vision for the future in which the rights of all Libyans would be respected."
He "supported the birth of a new democracy…Libyans held elections…(They) built new institutions…(They) move(d) forward after decades of dictatorship."
Truth is polar opposite Obama's Big Lies. Libya was Africa's most developed country. Most Libyans supported Gaddafi.
They did so for good reasons. Libya was a model social justice society.
Gaddafi used its oil wealth responsibly. He provided free healthcare, education and other vital benefits.

Eric Holder’s tenure as attorney general will be remembered for the failure to prosecute any leading bankers who were responsible for the collapse of the economy. While the SEC negotiated large fines, the DOJ prosecuted none of those who were guilty of crimes that robbed the wealth of tens of millions of Americans. The failure to prosecute bankers was one example of many where corporate power dominated the DOJ on finance, environmental, labor and other issues. This should have been an era of aggressive enforcement of corporate crime, instead corporate criminals were rarely investigated.

How many gallons of water are required to produce one 250 ml bottle of bottled water? How many acre feet of water are required to produce one Ikea kitchen, installed?
The closest answer found so far is Blaine Hanson Department of Land, Air and Water Resources University of California, Davisbrhanson@ucdavis.edu a 34-page pdf located here.
When the subject of Peak Water comes up most people do not think of Industrialization or empty swimming pools filled with chemicals that drain into the sewers. Few think of Waste Water, Industrial Water, Drinking Water, Desalination of Water, Membrane and Ozone Costs and Overhead and Sustainability. Each doubling of Earth’s population is happening in one-half the previous increment of time; each doubling of factory farming, and of industrialization halves the amount of safe water. One other way of looking at it is each doubling of factory farming pesticides and medical waste doubles the requirements for ozonification and filter membranes * for bees *. Many amateur articles on bees pose imminent extinctions as a question (will bees go extinct rather than when will bees go extinct). The worst articles compare pounds of honey by state rather than numbers of pollinators out in the crops. Put bluntly, will you be counting cheap gallons of propane for your truck, bags of almonds and jars of honey when your germplasm goes extinct?

A separate article discussed it. He didn't surprise. Demagogic mumbo jumbo Big Lies drowned out truth.
Not according to media scoundrels. The New York Times finds new ways to lie, distort and misreport.
It substitutes managed news misinformation rubbish for hard truths. It's longstanding Times policy.
It ludicrously called Obama a "once-reluctant warrior…" It ignored his war on humanity throughout his tenure. His naked aggression.
His ravaging and destroying one nation after another. His latest Iraq and Syrian aggression. The Times turned truth on its head.
It highlighted Obama's "muscular new course." His vow to "dismantle the Islamic State's 'network of death.' "
He created it. It's a valued US ally. Pentagon special forces and CIA operatives train its fighters in Jordan and Turkey.

The NSA has no budget, or rather look around you and imagine every third phone you see today having the NSA pad the bill or txt themselves $10-$100 via a black-ops virus. By the end of business today, NSA could easily use malware to pad their own budget hundreds of millions per day via virii. The NSA R&D budget used the Space Shuttle STS-60, STS-69 and STS-80 missions to make a weapon that kills and disposes of as human body in under 4 minutes via a hand-wielded vacuum shell; such weapons are pricey. NSA Black Ops include self-funding through phone and computer virii that steal credit card info, globally - an almost unlimited budget.
The National Security Agency Crime Syndicate includes renting Gang Bangers (both within and outside of incarceration). Phase 1 can include mere e-harassment and e-surveillance or can include Organized Harassment by BlackWater (XE), by NSA Operatives as well as mass harassment by gangs (including white yuppie psychopath gangs).

The U.S. war establishment is using the ISIS propaganda scare to police the world and continuously subject resistant nations to their global NATO imperial plans through massive aerial bombardment violence that is already murdering people not taking part in hostilities.
It’s not just the ISIS group that is an instrument to launch further wars for empire, either. There are new groups and endless enemies that the Washington war cabal is now naming, including the Khorasan group.
The U.S. war criminals dropped as many bombs on Syria in one night on September 23 than the entire span of recent bombings/170 plus death dealing airstrikes on Iraq in the name of waging war against ISIL, which is really a campaign designed to further destroy the Iraqi nation to control its petroleum . In Syria, U.S. NATO imperialists bombed 50 targets in Raqqa, Deir al-Zor and Hasakah provinces and also conducted airstrikes in Alleppo.

Previous articles explained when America goes to war of plans one, media scoundrels march in lockstep.
They justify the unjustifiable. They defend the indefensible. Big Lies proliferate. Truth is verboten. It's systematically buried. It's turned on its head.
Rule of law principles don't matter. Supporting might over right takes precedence.
Benefitting powerful monied interests matters most of all. So does advancing America's imperium.
MSM media reports, commentaries and editorials support what demands condemnation. It's longstanding major media policy.

I refuse to take sides in this conflict. I believe both sides are liars. When I say "both sides", I mean West and Russia. I refuse to include Ukraine in this equation. I will explain why.
Ukraine cannot sustain itself without external support. So whoever gets to support it gets to control it. Therefore, regardless of who wins in Ukraine, this country is not going to be a truly independent nation in the foreseeable future. It's policies will depend either on West or Russia for a long time to come.
You may have recoiled when I called both sides liars. I understand why. But I also understand why you should not. If you don't like my explanation, I would still respect your dislike though. Perhaps your dislike is a well-masked sign of approval.

Obama's Iraq war III is lawless. It has no legal authority. It constitutes cold, calculated, premeditated naked aggression.
The same holds for his three-and-a-half year proxy war on Syria. It was planned long before March 2011 hostilities began. It's now elevated to direct US intervention.
On Tuesday, US warplanes bombed multiple Syrian targets. Precise ones aren't clear. Multiple civilian deaths followed. At least three children died. Civilians suffer most in all wars.
US and Israeli ones target them willfully. They're considered legitimate targets. They're murdered in cold blood.
