US wants war not talks

By José M. López Sierra – Puerto Rico

The world considers the United States (US) as the biggest threat to peace according to Gallup Polls. Ironically, however, the US government (USG), of all people, held a virtual summit, supposedly on “democracy” in December 2021.

The USG did not invite certain nations to its summit. If any nation should not have been invited due to her absence of democracy, it should have been the US. Do you know that only 39% of US citizens are satisfied with our government (an “F”), while over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with theirs (an “A”)? China, however, was not invited to the summit.     

US citizens do not want a war with Russia. Click on the following link for more: https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2022/01/28/675679/US-Russia-Ukraine-White-House-Protest-Antiwar-Activists-Peace-Diplomacy. Do you know that the USG does 90% of what the majority of its citizens don’t want?

The USG, conversely, wants war. That should not surprise anybody, since US President Eisenhower warned us about that in his last speech – the Military Industrial Complex. Moreover, US Major General Smedley Butler warned us too in his book, War is a Racket.

If the USG would have wanted talks, it would have perfectly understood Russia’s position, stated consistently over many years, that another North Atlantic Treaty Organization military base in Ukraine constitutes an existential threat to her security. That should have been a no-brainer, since that was the USG’s exact argument, in 1962, about Russian missiles in Cuba just 90 miles away from the US.

So, instead of the USG assuming the logical position of joining China in promoting peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, the USG continues to impose more economic sanction on Russia, and continues to send more military equipment and money to Ukraine. The USG has even gone as far as (US Senator Lindsey Graham) openly calling for the assassination of Russian President Putin! It would be very difficult to argue that the USG operates within the scope of, “In God We Trust”.

What a contradiction that the United Nations in the US of all places!

Nací en NYC. Me mudé a Puerto Rico en el 1980 donde eventualmente me convertí en independentista al ver que PR no se administra para los boricuas. Me retiré tempranamente de la pedagogía para luchar 24/7 por la descolonización de Puerto Rico a través de marchas pacíficas anuales y empujar a la ONU hacer su trabajo. Necesitaremos un tsunami de gente protestando permanentemente para obligar a USA a cumplir con la ley internacional que prohíbe el coloniaje.
