Great insights, Alex. I'd encourage you to reframe just a bit and think of the current western governments more like an extended and extensive criminal cartel.

Great insights, Alex. I'd encourage you to reframe just a bit and think of the current western governments more like an extended and extensive criminal cartel.
This lens makes it far easier to understand the many contradictory and self defeating actions.
So, for example, the apparent traitors and moles. In a cartel, the members are loyal only to a very limited and self interested extent. Getting rich, keeping power, staying alive. When another Cartel member threatens any of those 3 priorities then others can and will take action. Imagine the US government as one crime Syndicate made up of many families and within families individual members w competing agendas. The Military Industrial Complex is one family and they're on board w war in Ukraine so long as it doesn't threaten their other interests. But once it appears that the Neocon crime family is driving the Syndicate over the cliff, well that's not going to work. So there are leaks, there are investigations, there are articles and speeches at variance w the Official Narrative. It's internecine fighting and may they all lose.
The key will be watching to see which crime family openly plays itself as the Good Guy and turns rat against the others. It will have to be a powerful faction as the blowback will be literal murder. But it's coming.
Hi Ginned Up - thank you and what a great feedback. Indeed, I think that this is the essence of why the cabal's whole house of cards is so fragile. They incentivize their troops with monetary rewards and attract to their cause amoral opportunists whose loyalty is only as firm as long as they see gain in serving the agenda. As soon as they're not sure about those gains, or someone else has a better offer, they're ready to jump ship and even turn on them. Today China and Russia now control considerably greater economic power than London and New York. Once that economic power has a solid and widely used financial infrastructure, it is game over for the cabal.
Exactly. This also speaks to the question many debate--- are they incompetent or evil? The answer is "yes."
The crime families and Syndicate heads are evil and all too competent. But by necessity they must employ and use hosts of useful idiots, zealous idealogues, opportunists, drones, and clueless bureaucrats. Only the ones at the top need to know the plan or share the real design. For the rest it's shut up and do as you're told.
Now they are hitting real friction w China and Russia and the Global South. How the Cartel will respond as the factions start turf wars and jumping ship will be life or death for many. Thanks for your work, Alex!

Thank you, and yes - I fully agree!
A compelling analogy!
