The United States invested $5 billion to organize the coup in Ukraine, according to Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland. The European Union tried in good faith to incorporate Ukraine into its continental community in the middle of an economic crisis by signing an association agreement.
The troika of the United States, EU and NATO continues to apply its strategic doctrine, dating from the beginning of the 20th century and revitalized during the Cold War, to maximally besiege two countries: China and Russia, both rich in natural resources.
These imperialists of the earth continue to hunt for sources of energy and sustenance; capitalist greed pushes them to seize, by means of war, oil, natural gas and agricultural production. Ukraine — which means border territory in Slavic languages — is rich in these resources, as well as in coal and iron. It was once called the breadbasket of Russia because it possesses the most fertile land in Europe: black soil, which is rich in humus. The production of crops and water, in addition to fossil fuels and natural gas, is sufficient reason to invade, bombard or sabotage any cursed country in order to have those resources in the soil and subsoil.
Ten thousand workers from the southeast of Ukraine are the targets of the European capitalist businesses, which in the middle of the economic crisis hope to obtain more cheap manpower. Chevron’s first investments amount to more than $10 billion. Monsanto, the strongman of Paraguay, is preparing to extend its reach to exploit the paradisical lands of Ukraine.
Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and all countries bombarded in the name of anti-democratic profligacy – paraphrased from Eduardo Galeano – by work of the triad of the United States, EU and NATO, invariably become a madhouse or a cemetery.
Meanwhile, this year, China will surpass the U.S. as the greatest world economic power, according to the Financial Times, an event that experts calculated would not happen until 2019, according to the gross domestic product and the purchasing power of its citizens. The warmongering policy of the United States, with the drones of Bush and Obama that have cost more than 3,000 lives, 50 percent of which were innocent civilians, is not the best way to compete for leadership of the world economy.
This is the tacit holocaust of capitalism, as professor Nafeez Ahmed calls it in The Guardian. He indicates that since 1945, the continuous expansion of global capitalism is the result of more than 70 interventionist wars against different developing countries that have been waged in order to achieve beneficial political conditions for its markets, allow the penetration of Western capital, and dominate the extraction of natural resources and the labor force.
Ahmed cites British historian Mark Curtis, who calculated that the expansion of capitalism in the world caused the deaths of 10 million people, even though American economist J.W. Smith says that there have been closer to between 12 and 15 million violent deaths, and that there are hundreds of millions who have died due to the imperialist war that was initiated to disseminate global capitalism, which caused the destruction of many of the world’s economies and habitats from 1945 to 1990.
Estados Unidos invirtió 5,000 millones de dólares para organizar el golpe de Estado en Ucrania, según su canciller adjunta, Vicky Nuland. La Unión Europea habÃa intentado por las buenas que Ucrania se incorporara a esa comunidad continental, en crisis económica, firmando un acuerdo de asociación.
Diez millones de trabajadores del sureste ucraniano son el blanco de las empresas capitalistas europeas, que en medio de la crisis económica esperan contar con más mano de obra barata. Chevron calcula sus primeras inversiones en más de 10 mil millones de dólares. Monsanto, la golpista de Paraguay, prepara sus tentáculos para expoliar las paradisÃacas tierras ucranianas.
Yugoslavia, Afganistán, Irak, Libia, Siria y todo paÃs bombardeado en nombre del libertinaje antidemocrático —parafraseando a Eduardo Galeano—, se vuelve invariablemente por obra de la trÃada EE.UU., UE y OTAN, manicomio o cementerio.
Mientras tanto, China durante este año superará a EE.UU. como la primera potencia económica mundial, según el Financial Times, de acuerdo al poder adquisitivo de sus habitantes y el PIB, algo que los expertos calculaban que ocurrirÃa en 2019. La polÃtica guerrerista, aun con los drones de Bush y Obama, con más de tres mil vÃctimas y 50% de civiles inocentes, no es la mejor manera para competir por liderazgo de la economÃa mundial.
Este es el holocausto tácito del capitalismo, como lo llama el profesor Nafeez Ahmed, en The Guardian, quien señala que desde 1945 la continua expansión del capitalismo global fue el resultado de más de 70 guerras intervencionistas contra diferentes paÃses en vÃas de desarrollo, para lograr las condiciones polÃticas de sus mercados, permitir la penetración del capital occidental y dominar los recursos naturales y a la fuerza laboral.
Ahmed cita al historiador británico Mark Curtis, quien calculó que la expansión del capitalismo en el mundo causó la muerte de 10 millones de personas. Aunque el economista de EE.UU., J. W. Smith, dice que fueron entre 12 millones y 15 millones las muertes violentas; y que son centenares de millones los que murieron porque la guerra imperialista para diseminar el capitalismo global causó la destrucción de sus economÃas y su hábitat, desde 1945 hasta 1990.

Whether George HW Bush or Donald J Trump, Americanimperialism is unabated—the pathetic excuses and the violentshock-and-awe tactics don’t matter; the results do.
If this electoral gridlock [in domestic policy] does occur, it may well result in Trump — like several other reelected presidents of recent decades — increasingly turning to foreign policy.
What happened to this performing arts center is paradigmatic of how Trump’s second presidency ... [is] another front in a war ... to impose an autocratic regime led by a 21st century feudal lord outside of international law.
