Is the US getting ready for a “face saving exit” from the Ukraine war?
I had noted in the previous article that “ The question here is would the US
let Ukraine use this missile against Russia and give them a chance to study and
reverse-engineer it for its defense? Or will
US risk its assets and soldiers spread around the world with over 800 military
bases with so many adversaries on each region? We will wait and see
shortly if US will take that risk or not.” The response to the question came quicker
than I expected right after Putin’s stark warning leaving no room for any
vagueness about Russia’s possible response in case of such an approval practice of which may well bring about the death of Russian
civilians. US was very quick in denying the approval of the use of missiles
after Putin’s short but definite response.
I had concluded the article with my take on the issue saying that ;” They (US bureaucrats) are cornered in Israel issue, but they are already setting up a “face saving” exit from the Ukraine war issue.” Reading the latest articles from the “well known” writers of the so called “free media” like Washington Post, New York Times etc., reinforced that argument.
For experienced analyzers there
are ways to see the changes and the directions of the policies of the US “decision
makers” through the changes in the narratives of the columnists who are known
to be in bed with the US Government
agencies, especially with CIA, NSA. Government uses them through “leaking
information” to them, in most cases, to carry out and disseminate their
narratives. That is the manipulation of the masses with disinformation through
the use of “well known” columnists to go
along with their narratives for any given action. Another function of these
columnists is to prepare the masses for any decisions to be taken which will be
contrary to the narratives for the same action.
Since, a sharp change in the narrative and the direction of the policy on that
given “action” is not a preferable
alternative, for it creates a shock and raises the issue of credibility, while keeping the same narrative
going, they start injecting the truth in their articles that contradicts the
narrative. If this “injection” practice starts
as the headline of the article, that may
well be considered as the indication for the start of the preparations for a “face
saving exit’ from the ongoing policy and practice.
In Ukraine case, the narratives and headlines gradually but consistently
changing from “Ukraine is winning the war” to “Ukraine needs help to win the
war” to “Ukraine is losing the war” is a good example for this. Although it is not as wide spread yet, the
most striking example of this “injection of truth” within the narrative is related
to the casualties. The narrative of “Russia is losing hundreds of thousands of soldiers”
is changing to “ Russia has lost soldiers
with a ratio of one to four Ukrainian soldiers”.
The articles by these “well known
journalists!“, “columnists” are in line with the (historical) common practice of preparing
the masses for a “ face saving exit” of the US from the Ukraine war. That does
not mean that the core of the narratives will change, but the narratives “supporting
to the end till Ukraine gains all the territories back, Ukraine will win, We
will not let Russia to occupy Ukrainian lands” etc., will disappear. US does not have the military
capacity to support Ukraine, its own military arsenal is depleted. Ukraine
alone or with the few European countries have no capacity to escalate the war
to benefit US, but to bring about their economic and military destruction- in
Ukraine case, its total destruction.
US never believed that Ukraine
could win the war. It was the use of Ukraine and the Ukrainian soldiers rather
than its own in order to weaken and dismantle Russia. The policy and practice backfired and brought
about an economically and militarily powerful Russia.
Thanks to the provocations of
Israeli apartheid regime, now US is facing a regional war in Middle East that
can easily escalate to a larger war. This situation presents more danger for the
US than the escalation of war in Ukraine and a war between France, Brits, and
Russia. Aside from the connections of world finance capital to Israel, the unquestionable
power of the Israeli Lobby in the US, both the civilian and military bureaucrats of the US are in an impasse. They are in an impasse at a time when the
BRICS summit is around the corner, the decisions come out of which can impact
the value of US Dollar seriously, may change the entire economic and geopolitical
strategic alliance structure in world scale.
It seems that a ‘face saving exit”
for the US is becoming an inevitable and rational alternative at a time when
they are facing defeats from South to South East Asia. World is on the path of a
crossroad for destruction or temporary but
a long peace period. We will all wait and see the outcome.
