What to make of the 'new' Obama foreign policy doctrine?
In a previous RT article I called it the
"Take it to the Morgue - Quietly" doctrine - as it ostensibly privileges shadow wars instead of
"Shock and Awe."Then, in another
article, I showed how much the still exceptionalist doctrine borrows from prime neo-con (and conceptualizer of the war on Iraq) Robert Kagan - husband of the notorious Victoria, Queen of Nulandistan.
But that was definitely too conceptual. In fact, as peddled off the record by the White House, the
"doctrine" is nothing but a
prosaic "Don't Do Stupid S**t," a denomination fully adopted by
The New York Times.
Stupid s**t though, doesn't even begin to describe Obama's first act after announcing the doctrine last week at West Point. For those who don't get the message, one picture is enough to tell the whole
story; Obama and the Polish president in front of an F-16 exhibition at a military airport near Warsaw.
Stupid s**t also irretrievably takes a backseat to serious s**t during Obama's current European tour. We just need to examine what's in store at the selected pit stops.
First is Warsaw - whose nervous poodle, US vassal government is absolutely hysterical over an imminent Russian
"threat." Then it's the G7 in Brussels - the
"ex-G8," from which Russia was expelled by the self-proclaimed
"great powers." One of the items in the agenda is the possibility of slapping even more sanctions over Moscow's
"threat" to the Ukraine.
Comment: 120,000 dead people later, it has all come to nought.
Assad is more popular than ever and the U.S. empire is one step closer to its grave.
Stupid, bloody psychopaths.
