★ US Foreign Relations (I)

The available evidence indicates that the US kept to the international consensus until February 1971, when it rejected the Jarring-Sadat initiative.  US isolation increased in the mid-1970s as the consensus shifted to recognition of a Palestinian right of self-determination.  Coincidentally, it was in February 1971 that George Bush became part of the executive apparatus as UN Ambassador.  A compliant bureaucrat, Bush has adhered to US rejectionism throughout, and gives no indication of any departure today.  ibid.   

 

Control over Middle East energy provides leverage in world affairs and guarantees a substantial flow of capital to the economies of the United States and Britain.  ibid.

 

 

Indonesia was supposed to be in this new [post-war] world order granted a kind of nominal independence … In Indonesia there were essentially three forces: one was President Sukarno, the leader of the nationalist’s movement who was an independent nationalist and therefore already unacceptable, then there was a mass-based popular party  the Indonesian communist party  which was needless to say totally unacceptable, and thirdly there was the army which more or less shared US aims.  Noam Chomsky, lecture MOMA 16th November 1992

 

The CIA began to support right-wing parties  that didn’t work.  They supported an insurrection in 1957/58  that was put down.  The US then turned to a classic technique for overthrowing civilian government  one that’s used over and over again  namely, cut off any aid or assistance or support to the government but maintain, even increase, military aid.  ibid.

 

1965 and then Suharto took over and then came this huge bloodbath … The biggest bloodbath since the holocaust.  ibid. 

 

East Timor: The silence began in December 1975 with the Indonesian invasion: from then on there’s a sharp decline in coverage  it reaches zero, zero literally in the United States and Canada, in 1978 which is the year in which the atrocities peaked, and in which in fact Jimmy Carter took some time off from his sermons about human rights to increase US aid to Indonesia because they were actually running out of arms in the war against this tiny country.  ibid.

 

Britain stepped up its military sales to Indonesia.  ibid.

 

 

Washington has announced further cuts in its foreign aid, which is an international scandal: it’s the most miserly in the developed world, and it would be virtually invisible if we were to remove the biggest component which goes to a very rich country  Israel.  Noam Chomsky with Christopher Hitchens, University of the District of Columbia December 1995, US Foreign Policy’, Youtube 1.54.14

 

The United States has an unusual military doctrine  possibly unique  which disqualifies it from genuine peacekeeping operations.  ibid. 

 

 

When the United States invades Iraq, kills a couple of hundred thousand people, generates millions of refugees, destroys the country, sets off a sectarian conflict that’s tearing Iraq and by now the whole region to shreds, and on the side increases terrorism worldwide by a factor of seven just in the first year  that’s stabilization, part of our mission that we must continue for the benefit of the world.  Noam Chomsky, lecture The New School New York City, ‘On Power and Ideology’, Youtube 1.16.30

 

 

Since about 1970 the United States has stood virtually alone in the international arena in blocking diplomatic efforts to bring about a negotiated settlement to the Arab-Israeli conflict through peaceful means.  Noam Chomsky, lecture July 1995, ‘Protecting Corporate Power Against Democracy’, Youtube

 

 

Kissinger won out: we followed the policy of stalemate.  Since that time the United States has been alone in the world outside of Israel in blocking every move towards a political settlement.  It’s vetoed UN security council resolutions … year after year.  Noam Chomsky, lecture BMFA 18th February 1993 

 

 

Rwanda ... The Clinton administration did virtually nothing to stop the slaughter.  Clinton II: Blood Sport, caption, PBS 2012

 

 

The violence in Bosnia reached a climax in the summer of 1995.  A new set of European leaders implored Clinton to act.  Clinton III: The Real President

 

 

Americans need to educate themselves, from elementary school onward, about what their country has done abroad.  And they need to play a more active role in ensuring that what the United States does abroad is not merely in keeping with a foreign policy elites sense of realpolitik but also with the American publics own sense of American values.  Mohsin Hamid

 

 

That the CFR has been in control of the foreign policy of the United States for some time should now be beyond question.  Richard Harwood

 

 

We cannot play innocents abroad in a world that is not innocent.  Ronald Reagan

 

 

Rest assured that the security of Israel is a principle objective of this administration.  Ronald Reagan

 

 

I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them.  I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do.  The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it.  My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.  William S Burroughs

 

 

If we had to play by the normal economic rules, we would have a normal sized military, not a massive global military which is larger than the next twenty nations combined, which is what we have right now.  So if the dollar loses its status as the world reserve currency, that is the pillar that underpins American supremacy, then the military pillar, which is the other pillar of American supremacy, will fall away as well.  William Clark, author Petrodollar Warfare

 

 

It is essential that no country gains ascendancy over the United States in the development, manufacture and tactical use of Atomic weapons.  Admiral William H P Blandy

 

 

Our foreign policy has made a wreck of this planet.  I’m always in Africa ... and when I go to these places I see American policy written on the walls of oppression everywhere.  Harry Belafonte

 

 

It is the last taboo subject in America.  You can talk about lesbians, blacks, gays, anything you want.  But not America’s relationship ... with Israel.  Robert Fisk

 

 

Don’t let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine messianic force to be – a sort of policeman of the whole world.  God has a way of standing before the nations with judgment.  Martin Luther King junior

 

 

The United States, My Prime Minister, has been proud of its association with the State of Israel.  Alexander Haig

 

 

The policy of guiding the evolution of Islam and of helping them against our adversaries worked marvelously well in Afghanistan against the Red Army.  The same doctrines can still be used to destabilize what remains of Russian power, and especially to counter the Chinese influence in Central Asia.  Graham Fuller, former Deputy Director CIAs National Council on Intelligence

 

 

We need a foreign policy that distinguishes America’s friends from her enemies, and recognizes the true threats that we face.  Sarah Palin

 

 

United States foreign policy, which includes national security, is literally disintegrating before our eyes.  Rush Limbaugh

 

 

The problem with the US foreign policy is that we’re just so unbelievably powerful.  And when you’ve got that kind of power, it’s very hard not to use it.  Stanley Hauerwas

 

 

The dream was not to be.  On February 1st 1999 the Clinton administration released its new federal budget: it contained a tiny 3% increase on social programs, meanwhile, $112 billion in new funds were allocated to the military which the budget of the CIA and other intelligence agencies rose by $29 billion.  The Power Principle, 2011

 

The US now spends as much on war as the rest of the world combined.  ibid.

 

NSC68: ‘A policy which the United States would probably pursue even if there were no Soviet Union’.  ibid.

  

Guatemala didn’t even have diplomatic relations with Russia … Bernays was offered huge sums of money to develop a propaganda campaign against Arbenz and the people of Guatemala.  ibid.   

 

‘Under the United Nations flag Lumumba was killed in the Congo.’  ibid.  Che Guevara

 

Under the auspices of the UN, the Belgiums insisted on retaining a strong military presence in the country.  ibid.

 

‘The Mafia Principle is correct: if you want to maintain order and discipline you have to make sure there is no disobedience.’  ibid.  Chomsky

 

September 11 1973: the democratically elected government of Salvador Allende was overthrown in a violent coup-d’etat: it established a military dictatorship.  ibid.  

 

The brutality of the Contras took its toll … The Contras had raped, tortured and killed unarmed civilians including children … burnt, dismembered, blinded and beheaded.  ibid.
