The Scythe Cut and the Two Roads to Beijing: How America's Partisan War Plans Are Converging into a Pincer Against China

The opening months of 2026 have exposed a profound realignment in the global order. The U.S. capture of Nicolás Maduro on January 3 and the launch of Operation Epic Fury on February 28—culminating in the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and widespread strikes on Iranian nuclear, missile, and leadership targets—appear, at first glance, as separate operations aimed at regime change, counter-narcoterrorism, and nuclear prevention. Yet a growing body of strategic commentary points to an emerging, if opportunistic, grander design: a pincer movement designed to sever China's strategic lifelines and erode its network of partners.

This is not merely about Caracas or Tehran. It is increasingly about Beijing.

To grasp the architecture, recognize a longstanding pattern in U.S. foreign policy: two distinct partisan "roads" to containing China's rise, each rooted in ideology but sharing the same endpoint.

Europe's Geopolitical Predicament: Useful Idiots or Cynical Crooks in Leadership?

Europe stands at a strategic crossroads, facing economic pressures, energy insecurity, and ongoing conflicts on its borders. Its leaders champion unity and citizen welfare, yet their policies often perpetuate division and dependency. This raises a critical question: Are today's European leaders useful idiots, unknowingly serving external agendas that undermine continental interests, or cynical crooks, deliberately prioritizing elite alliances over the public good?

"This is not the right way to deal with China," a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated, urging the U.S. to "correct its wrong approach."

The Unholy Mirror — Israel & Hamas

 

We are told that in war, one side must be good and the other evil. We demand moral clarity, a clean narrative where light confronts darkness. But in the suffocating conflict between Israel and Hamas, this clarity dissolves into a terrifying paradox: two entities, defined by their mutual annihilation, have become opposites alike, reflecting each other's darkest impulses in an unholy mirror. The Palestinian civilian is trapped in a pincer movement of dehumanization, caught between the overwhelming force of the Israeli military and the cynical calculus of Hamas, which treats its own people as expendable assets in a brutal political war .

This creates a horrifying reality where the actions of the Israeli government and Hamas, while morally distinct in their scale and power, function as two sides of the same coin. Both converge on the same tragic outcome: the systematic erosion of the Palestinian individual's right to life, safety, and autonomy, forsaken by all.

Guns Over Homes: How Anglo Masters Are Forging a Militarized EU Puppet State While Its People Sleepwalk Towards Revolt

www.ft.com

EU elites commit billions to Anglo-driven rearmament as housing ruins millions. Is this the "unity" Europeans wanted? Or a vassal state marching to Washington's drum?

Body:

The verdict is in, and it’s more damning than we imagined. Europe’s ruling elites haven’t just chosen guns over homes – they’ve chosen vassalage over sovereignty.

L’Avvertimento di Einstein (1948): Condanna al Partito Herut di Begin come "Fascista" e le Radici del Likud

La storia offre spesso un contesto cruciale per comprendere il presente. Nel dicembre 1948, un gruppo di eminenti intellettuali, attivisti e scienziati ebrei – tra cui Albert Einstein, la filosofa Hannah Arendt e lo storico Sidney Hook – scrissero un severo monito al New York Times. Il loro bersaglio era Menachem Begin, leader del neonato "Partito della Libertà" (Herut - Tnuat Haherut), in visita negli Stati Uniti per cercare sostegno.

Einstein's Warning (1948): Condemning Begin's Herut Party as "Fascist" & the Roots of Likud

History often provides crucial context for understanding the present. In December 1948, a group of prominent Jewish intellectuals, activists, and scientists – including Albert Einstein, philosopher Hannah Arendt, and historian Sidney Hook – penned a stark warning to the New York Times. Their target was Menachem Begin, leader of the newly formed "Freedom Party" (Herut - Tnuat Haherut), who was visiting the United States seeking support.

THE EMPTY THRONE: How Trump’s “Peace Talks” Masked the West’s War Machine

"It is entirely indifferent to history whether something happened this way or that. It always sides with the victor."
— Christian Hebbel, German dramatist

Operation Spider’s Web and the Iran Bombing Expose a President Who Talks Peace—But Lets Elites Wage War

Donald Trump stood before cameras at Mar-a-Lago, palms raised: “I’ll stop these wars in 24 hours.”
Not long after, Ukrainian drones struck deep inside Russia during his Istanbul peace talks.
And not long after that, U.S. B-2 stealth bombers obliterated Iranian nuclear sites.
The pattern is clear: Trump doesn’t command the declining empire—he’s its charismatic pitchman.

The Russian Expansionism Hoax: Why Europe’s Fearmongering Blocks Peace in Ukraine

"Stability and Security in the 21st Century" (Clinton - May 1998)

In April 2025, as the Ukraine war grinds into its third year, the United States, under President Trump, is pushing for a ceasefire to end the bloodshed. Yet, European leaders and Ukraine’s government are digging in, waving the tattered flag of “Russian expansionism” to justify their resistance. Sound familiar? It should. This fear of a Russian juggernaut poised to conquer Europe is as absurd as Nazi Germany’s Lebensraum or Italy’s Sacro Egoismo—propaganda myths that fueled wars by inflating threats. Today, Europe and Ukraine are falling for the same trap, blinded by fear and vested interests to the reality: Russia’s war in Ukraine isn’t the dawn of an imperialist rampage but a desperate brake on NATO’s relentless eastward march. Why can’t they see it? Let’s dismantle the nonsense and expose why this shortsighted obsession is prolonging a devastating war.

The EU’s Twin Crises: Neglecting Housing and Prosperity for Ideology and War

The 2008 financial crisis exposed the fragility of Western economies, yet EU leaders have since doubled down on policies that prioritize ideological agendas and foreign conflicts over the basic needs of citizens. While housing prices in major EU capitals soar to €700,000 for modest apartments, regulators pour billions into the Ukraine war and symbolic initiatives like gender equality quotas and Green Deal mandates—policies that ignore the collapsing affordability of life for ordinary Europeans. This post examines how the EU’s obsession with "strategic defeats" abroad and virtue-signaling at home has deepened domestic crises, with housing as the clearest symbol of systemic failure. Lessons from Vienna and Singapore offer a path forward, but only if political will shifts toward citizens.

Il delirio occidentale continua

Il delirio occidentale continua nel cercare di trascinare l'opinione pubblica ad appoggiare una guerra potenzialmente mondiale provocata dagli anglofili. 

Utilizzo la parola delirio in quanto aberrazione della realtà, distorsione della percezione e conseguente creazione di una narrativa congrua a questa nuova interpretazione.

Non mi viene in mente una parola più corretta. 

Il dado è tratto

Non riesco a credere che l'occidente stia così apertamente dichiarando guerra alla Russia.

La guerra tra Russia e Occidente è già iniziata

Il crollo del prezzo del petrolio è come il colpo di pistola, il segnale di partenza per uno scontro che in molti hanno preannunciato e sperato di evitare ma che ormai è già iniziato.

Isis, Vietnam and the solution to the middle east conflict

Are we winning or losing the global war on terror ? Have we yet made truly bold moves ? Are we Killing or Deterring more terrorists everyday than the madrassas and radical clericals are recruiting and deploying against us ? (from D.Rumsfeld memos)

In a previous post I explained why the American Strategy  against Isis is doomed to fail and the similarities with Mcnamara's mistakes (Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon administration) in Vietnam. Here we explore the two historical moments. 
As always happens on this blog,quickly and without too much phrasing : 

The 3 biggest American mistakes in Vietnam: 

Quali e quante fasi avrà l'attacco Usa all'Isis ?

Chi pensa che bombardare con l'aviazione sarà abbastaza per piegare gli estremisti del Califfato si sbaglia di grosso.

Le operazioni saranno divise in più fasi:

Dove stanno bombardando gli Usa ?

E soprattutto dopo tanto casino stanno aiutando il regime di Assad così come la Russia aveva sempre fatto... ?!? non proprio...

- War is not a videogame and you are not playing call of duty

The Western lack of leadership

The western world and his organizations (Nato included) are experiencing an incredible lack of leadership and sense of responsability.

The "image culture" has turned political leaders into rockstars and public speeches into pure entertainment. The western countries population is now facing a hard truth. This army of political puppets is dragging us into war and serious geopolitical problems.

Is no surprise that the citizens of western "civilized" world are the most unhappy towards their leaders.

Consider, for instance, the Ukrainian crisis , if we are "so much on the right side" and the Russian are the "bad guys" who got it all wrong, why are they so much more happy than us ?

Europe lack of Leadership since euro inception has already his chapter written in history book, as one of the most darkest decades of the old continent...



 

Does Economic War forestall Military War ?

Geopolitical update:

- Ukraine "civil war" is escalating and could easily end up in a continental war opposing Usa and Russia on the European ground

- Putin is not backing down from western pressure

- Brics are forming an alternative to the Imf and World Bank, they will slowly try to move away from Bretton Woods and Us Dollar hegemony

- All "International Institutions" are under American Control

- Usa simply won't allow another "world standard" different from theirs, no matter the costs or the actions they will have to take

-  Russia offered economic support to Cuba and Argentina (the two most strategic countries, from a geopolitical point of view, in central and south America)

- Europe is highly dependent on Russia's Energy but is (blindly) following American orders

- After the 2008 crisis the western world can't fix their economy, all the money printing from central banks has increased the value of financial assets and stock markets but is not helping the real economy

- War remains the best possible economic stimulus

- The World got into word war II riding horses and got out flying supersonic jets (from spur to supersonic)

- In 1941 Japan attacked the Us Navy in Pearl Harbour only after the American Oil Embargo (economic war) gave them no other choice.
