The pseudo-libertarian, pseudo-antiwar, kremlintarian website “antiwar.com”, who happily supports wars of aggression, making them literally warmongers:

  • “the least bad outcome of the war would be a Russian victory” [1]

For crying out loud. This is not the wanton invasion of a historically separate and independent nation by an aggressive neighbor. “Ukraine” means borderlands in Russian and for centuries its territories were a vassal and sometimes integral part of the the Russian empire. In fact, today’s borders represent little more than the parts and pieces that got assembled into a single state by Lenin, Stalin and Khrushchev for the convenience of their bloody rule.

Even the falls of the British and French empires at the end of World War II do not match as geo-strategic disasters the collapse of the Soviet Empire and breakup of the Soviet Union since the end of the Cold War.

It’s at times like these that I tend to believe the wrong side won the war in the Pacific. Just think: if we all woke up one day living in some alternate history, as in Phillip K. Dick’s The Man in the High Castle, our cultural malaise would disappear overnight. Instead of listening to the latest loutish lyrics of Eminem, American teenagers would be contemplating the subtle beauty of the Japanese tea ceremony. If contemporary Japan is any clue, the crime rate would be cut by 95 percent, and the literacy rate would skyrocket. Certainly everyone’s manners would improve. All in all, life would be far more civilized, imbued with a gentility that would make the New York Post an impossibility.

In particular, tends to present dubious authors in a positive way...

  • Eric S. Margolis: “Award winning author, columnist, and broadcaster Eric S. Margolis has covered 14 wars and is a leading authority on military affairs” [2]
  • Noam Chomsky: “Professor Noam Chomsky, believed to be the greatest living intellectual of our time.” [3]

The antiwar.com-Counterpunch alliance that has been struggling against the neocon war party since Serbia is an example of a functional 4PT style alliance between the “left” and the “right”. This alliance has had real success in the antiwar movement as the public support has dried up for large invasions, and the war with Syria just didn’t sell this time around. We must build on this and continue to tirelessly and mercilessly poison the war party’s brand. We must work to expand this struggle to as many possible fronts, because both Bush and Clinton will be worse than Obama.

Bordertarianism

Europe’s elites shudder with horror at Joerg Haider. But the dirty little secret of Europe – and it really is not even much of a secret – is that almost everyone agrees with him. Europeans are distinctly unenthusiastic – to put it mildly – about immigrants. They lower incomes, spoil the quality of life and undermine national cultures. Most Americans believe the same thing. But in Europe politicians respond and pass laws that restrict the rights of entry of asylum seekers. Europe’s elites drone on endlessly about enlarging the European Union and inviting a number of the former Soviet bloc countries to become members. As far as most European voters are concerned, however, this would be nothing short of disaster. Like Haider, they do not want to be inundated by Poles and Slovaks looking for work and undermining trade union bargaining power. Nor do they want to see BMW or Renault transferring their operations to the East. As for “free trade,” Europeans expect full-blooded protectionism from the EU.
