The Fascist Beast and the New World Order


by Mathew Maavak | 


September 2, 2014


The West is venting its moral outrage again. Like the Dragon in St. George's
legend, it cannot rest until the objects of its wrath are devoured. Its
leadership, propelled by the indignant fumes of self-righteous toxicity, is
attaining new stratospheric heights of rectitude even as I write. These are
reporting back that Russia remains Global Enemy No 1 and we should all
believe them because they said so!

On terra firma below is an
<http://rt.com/news/syria-resolution-un-condemn-328/> ongoing genocide they
sparked off in Syria and Iraq, as well as civil wars (Libya) and Islamic
militancy (global) nurtured from the heydays of the Afghan Mujahideen to the
recent "Arab Spring." It took a military coup to restore order in Egypt - an
act that
<http://www.arabtimesonline.com/NewsDetails/tabid/96/smid/414/ArticleID/1990
58/reftab/36/Default.aspx> did not go down well amongst the merchants of
"freedom and democracy." A placard seen during last year's
anti-establishment protests in Egypt said it all: "
<http://twitchy.com/2012/12/04/anti-morsi-protester-to-obama-your-bitch-is-o
ur-dictator/> Obama: Your bitch is our dictator."

Since the
<http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/04/world/middleeast/egypt.html?pagewanted=al
l&_r=0> 2013 military takeover, the
<http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2014/02/01/morsi-murder-trial-resumes-ca
iro> bitch has been kennelled and Egypt has returned to normalcy. Murderous
assaults on Christians and other minorities have dipped considerably,
perhaps to the chagrin of Washington's power-brokers.

It is a geopolitical truism that whatever the United States touches turns
into a bloodbath. Call this the Midas Touch from Hell. Just about every
major military intervention since 1953 - the end of the Korean War -resulted
not in the flowering of democracy, but rather in the cancer of tyranny and
socio-economic regression. Its anti-Serbian bombing campaign two decades ago
has now predictably spawned a
<http://www.dw.de/jihad-made-in-kosovo/a-17874069> Jihad Made in Kosovo.

 
<http://online.wsj.com/articles/sohrab-ahmari-inside-the-mind-of-the-western
-jihadist-1409352541> Bosnians and Chechens are currently prized recruits
for the Islamic State (IS)'s genocidal campaigns in Syria and Iraq; the
curriculum vitae of terror having been padded by holy wars against infidel
Serbs and Russians. As Will Durant once said: "A great civilization is not
conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within."

Western Civilization has a death wish, much like the militant Islam it
frequently courts. Like the tail of a flailing dragon that is whiplashing
against anything or anyone in its death throes, the West cannot avoid its
slide to oblivion. The total unfunded liability of the US government now
stands at an
<http://www.forbes.com/sites/johngoodman/2014/08/07/how-much-do-we-really-ow
e/> untenable $210 trillion and sooner or later, creditors will knock on the
door for restitution. While international institutions like the IMF and the
World Bank perpetuate credit-facilitated neo-slavery throughout the world,
bankruptcy and restitution in the epicentres of global power are redeemed
through conflict. The only way to avoid debt servitude would be to shoot the
creditors.

Ever heard of the <http://www.bible.ca/ef/expository-mark-12-1-12.htm>
Parable of Wicked Vinedressers(Matt 21:33-45)? The same principle operates
here.

The European Union is instituting austerity measures even while it scrapes
the bottom of the barrel to fund a Fascist experiment in Ukraine. As Europe
struggles with high graduate underemployment, the people must think of
something - anything - but a bottom-up socioeconomic revolution.

In a 2012
<http://www.jfs.tku.edu.tw/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/172-A02.pdf>
peer-reviewed article, I concluded that the world may soon be carved up into
zones of regional government. This will be branded as the latest
"international effort" in global governance, or an international effort to
combat terrorism. The United Kingdom is
<http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-28986271> bracing itself for a jihadi attack
just 3 weeks before a Scottish referendum on independence. A coincidence?

Secession and national self-determination may however succeed if ultimate
powers are vested in a supra-national authority. A breakaway Scotland will
remain in the European Union while a breakaway Eastern Ukraine will not.
That's the crux here!

New World Order 3.0: The New and Improved Version

Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger recently renewed the call for a
<http://online.wsj.com/articles/henry-kissinger-on-the-assembly-of-a-new-wor
ld-order-1409328075> New World Order, admitting that the previous version
was overly focussed on the "amalgam of American idealism and traditional
European concepts of statehood and balance of power."

American idealism? What does that mean? Does it relate to the concept of
waging endless wars to profit the military-industrial complex, accompanied
by a relentless fractionation of wealth to favour the few? This idealism has
not found success anywhere; not since 1953 anyway. Europeans follow these
ideals because organizations like the GCHQ and NSA eavesdrop on them on an
industrial scale, filtering out the puppets from the patriots to create a
giant political morass run by pliant lackeys. Nothing to do with idealism
here; just plain blackmail and treason!

American idealism is now supplemented by an international realism to reflect
the zeitgeist. Kissinger continues:

"The contemporary quest for world order will require a coherent strategy to
establish a concept of order within the various regions and to relate these
regional orders to one another."

In other words, the New World Order will be made of geographic spheres of
influence, each with an epicentre for regional governance. All facets of
life will be governed by laws laid down by the Transnational Capitalist
Class (TCC) aka oligarchs who will effectively report to a supranational
decision-making body staffed and run by them. It is this entity that may
decide the "national leadership."

The social media may come in handy to promote the illusion of participatory
decision-making. Viral mob-frenzy and computer-generated "Likes" can
quantitatively displace the dangerous idealisms of detractors. Society is
being conditioned towards this end. Like lemmings rushing to their own
demise, people are ready to sign over their liberties in favour of "order."
If they still remain recalcitrant, the Islamic State is ready to bomb their
cities and boroughs to expedite "global consciousness" and the need for
collective security.

The emerging global government may therefore begin as an amalgam of the
Martial-Panoptic Society (
<http://www.jfs.tku.edu.tw/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/172-A02.pdf> p28) and
Unipolar Regionalism (p30).

Kissinger carefully avoids the hidden inference that half the global
population today could be entirely superfluous under either paradigm. But
wars, pandemics and mayhem have a way of sorting out population excesses,
no?

For the time being, the "international community" must be won over even
while the BRICS continue to baulk. Whatever the shortcomings of these
individual nations, and there are indeed many, its citizens are looking at a
roughly brighter future. The same cannot be said of the West and its lost
generation, where, the hungry have even been reduced to
<http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/25/world/europe/hunger-on-the-rise-in-spain.
html?pagewanted=all> foraging trash bins for the next meal. Unsustainable
debt levels, blowbacks from sanctions on Russia, and a generally cooling
global economy may translate to more foraging on the horizon.

Social disaffections can be somewhat neutered through propaganda. If people
hunger, serve them a stew of ideological hatred. If they thirst, let them
slake for war. If they need a bogeyman, give them Russia. If people are
demanding hard evidence over the downing of Flight MH17, start screaming
"Russia is invading Ukraine."

The fix is indeed in. The Western propaganda machinery is a carousel of
selective amnesia and concentrated revulsion. There has never been a
shortage of nemeses du jour to shape "global thinking." Those susceptible to
mob psychology today are however not fit for tomorrow's paradigm. Just what
can they contribute to the New World Order? Their ideas? Their
individuality?

The dictum -
<http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quotes.nsf/quotes_author%21ReadForm&Start=21&
Count=20&RestrictToCategory=adolf+hitler> Society's needs come before the
individual's needs - was foreseen by an Austrian who attempted New World
Order 1.0 before "American Idealism" (version 2.0) began to collapse under
the weight of its own mendacity and contradictions.

Now, you cannot have a New World Order without bogeymen. The same scapegoats
are applicable from versions 1.0 to 3.0, and we shall briefly investigate
where the guttural echoes of the 30s are finding popular reception today.

The West's Neo-Nazism

Ironically, despite throwing repeated Nazi slurs at Vladimir Putin and
Russia, it is Europe that needs to contend with a
<http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/183917#.VAGSIWPgX-A>
dramatic surge in anti-Semitic attacks. According to a recent report, these
attacks increased 436% in Europe, 127% in the United States and 100% in
Canada for the year-on-year July tally. Men, women, children and synagogues
were attacked from London to Paris to Berlin to Sydney. As far as I know,
there were no reported attacks in Russian cities during this period.

To pin these attacks on the recent Gaza conflict is rather simplistic. It
ignores the reality of a Nazi resurgence across Europe, which may be why
Ukraine is the current darling.

Darkness was now depicted as the light; lies as the truth. While the West
thundered against Bashar al-Assad's "cruel oppression" of
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Wh_j981T0c> cannibal jihadis last year, its
mainstream media largely ignored Fascism's rise in Ukraine. John Demjanjuk,
recently convicted in connection to the murder of 30,000-odd inmates in the
Nazi Sobibor camp, was
<http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2014/03/06/pers-m06.html> recast as a
national hero. A Joseph Goebbels Political Research Center was established
to render what I assume to be <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiskE1Jsr6A>
Yes We Caninto the Ukrainian language.

Things got so bad that the Israeli Knesset issued a protest letter against
rising
<http://voiceofrussia.com/2013_07_09/Israeli-Knesset-sign-protest-letter-aga
inst-anti-Semitism-and-Russophobia-in-Ukraine-4060/> anti-Semitism and
Russophobia in Ukraine in July 2013 - a full year before international
hysteria simultaneously peaked over Gaza and Eastern Ukraine. When was the
last time both communities received the brunt end of the same visceral hate,
followed by pan-European ire? Was it the 1930s?

Even the
<http://www.americanthinker.com/2014/08/history_repeating_itself_in_europe.h
tml> Kapo Brigade was gang-pressed to deflect suspicions of Nazism away from
its active purveyors. The Kapos certainly will not explain the profusion of
Neo-Nazi thinking, beliefs and symbolism inside the
<http://www.eurasianet.org/node/69401> pro-Kiev Azov Battalion, where the
volunteers are ominously drawn from all over Europe. These are the West's
"freedom fighters."

Kiev is the new laboratory for socially-acceptable neo-Nazism. I guess we
should get used to the idea of Populist Nazism in some other name down the
line. It works best when an
<http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/anti-semitism-is-growing-as-world-con
demns-israel-for-gaza-strikes/> anti-Nazi Putin gets transposed as the new
Nazi. An ability to repetitious invert reality might be a highly prized
skill in the West, worthy of a CV entry in lieu of the recently discredited
Jihad.

Concurrently, a new propaganda front was established to investigate any
empirical correlation between the
<http://www.iwm.at/read-listen-watch/transit-online/orthodox-component-russi
an-support-eastern-ukrainian-separatists/> Russian Orthodox Church and
religious nationalism. The historic bulwark role played by the Russian
Orthodox Church against Nazism would naturally be a vexatious fact to be
avoided altogether. The church is now insinuated as a retrogressive force
out of sync with modern realities.

In a nutshell, the West is frantically throwing everything at Russia, from
Pussy Riot to LGBT issues to wreckages of Malaysian Boeing 777s to charges
of Nazism, hoping that something eventually sticks.

1930s Redux

Not many people are comfortable with the emerging order, and they are seeing
parallels between the current era and the 1930s.

Eastern Ukraine is now reminiscent of the Spanish civil war, with European
volunteers offering to fight the old Fascism in the new garb. These
volunteer brigades, fighting alongside pro-Russian separatists, are loosely
dubbed the
<http://rt.com/news/183864-ukraine-european-volunteers-fighting/> United
Continent. Is this the "Russian invasion" that was repeatedly pledged to the
international media?

Socio-economic conditions in Europe today parallel events leading up to
WWII. The only element missing from the overall drama is a 1929-style Wall
Street crash, followed by another Great Depression. The descent to barbarism
this time will be much more rapid. It will be viral. The current Russophobia
is perhaps intended to blame the imminent crash on Russia and Putin.

Alternatively, Europe's unparalleled expertise in anti-Semitism may come in
handy.

In the end, the pantomime's backdrop is set. Old hatreds and memes are being
moulded in the anvils and furnaces of the next great social experiment. Can
you hear the lilts of "order" and the harbingers of slaughter and sacrifice?

I conclude by referring to that Dragon in the very first sentence of my
article. Did you know that there is a St. George in Russia's
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Russia> Coat of Arms? And he
is actually treading on a dragon. I consider that a serendipitous metaphor
for those who say NO to the growing tyranny.
