Why contribute to this? What is this knowledge of "fraud' based on? On thin air, as usual. The narrative has been written well in advance by the empire's willing enablers. For a secure rice bown.

Clinton's foreign policy is based on the pillars of Zbignew Brzezinski's The Grand Chessboard, and its sequel, The Second Chance. It is based on the imperative of suffocating Russia, and China. The methods are rooted in the 19th century garrisoning of key geographic areas, such as Afghanistan, the key real estate for expansion in Central Asia, supporting exremists in Uzbekistan, Tadjikistan, as well as inside Russia's Caucases and China's Western borders.
Therefore, Biden is just doing his job. Obama is looking bad, as his words and the deeds of his Administation are worlds apart.

Now I know why the money suddenly dissapeared and we had a "financial crisis", "crisis of liquiditiy" and such. The money was needed elsewhere. It seems that our earstwhile "Fed", which is as Federal as a Federal Express, or better said the owners of those private banks decided that the money is better spent digging in around the world in dusty outposts of the Empire, then to spent it on whining populace. So what if some kids are kicked out of their homes as they are foreclosed? So what if the families fall appart as one or more parents loose jobs? So what? For as long as their appetite for empirial outposts guides their decision making, the money will be taken away from the economy and plunged into the empire building. Now I know what "nation building" is all about.

Because the Obama Administration from the day he cut the deal with Clinton's to avoid chaos at the Democratic Convention, he cut the deal with the elites. The elites couldn't care less if Clinton or McCain were elected. Each one had the appropriate "mass" appeal, one as a "maverick" and a war hero, and another as a woman. Then came Obama.
With his foreign policy firmly in Clinton camp, he can only find a better way to "articulate" to the foreign leaders and masses, that US means well.
With that in mind, how hard is it to answer the question? As the author says, any use of weapons against any of the Iranian neighbors would "...virtually obliterate the entire Persian race in retaliation." Even this author has apparently no issue with the notion that anyone --- for whatever reason --- is entitled to the "obliteration of Iranian race".

The "secessionism" hardly applies to Yemen. Its central Government is a confederation of regions/tribes, and the amount of local freedom is high. Before British colonized Aden, the province of Hadramouth was independent. The concept of nation-state was not known, and what became South Yemen was hardly subject to rule from Sana'a.

Latin American oligarchs are under threat, and have lost key battles in many countries. Honduras was not to be lost to the "populist" sentiments. How quaint. The right of people is suddenly "populist". It is clear that the two leaders of the coup are the students of the School of the Americas, the preeminent institution of higher learning for the enforcers of the oligarchy rule in Latin America. No, US does not want the President back, but should he choose to ditch plans for voters to get empowered.... How tiresome of those who bash the "populist" leaders for not producing the instant happiness. As if centuries of mismanagement and plunder can be righted in a few years. And the tangible benefits are well known, but not to the oligarch-financed 'free" press. What a joke!
