COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA INSIDER
"The American
Mind Melts Away"
Despite being an amusing line, I am not sure that
"melts away” is the right verb.
Something more along the lines of "The American Mind
Was Never There," better fits the facts.
Americans are navel-gazers. Big kids who, for the most part,
find anything outside the United States boring.
They are, as a whole, about as unsuited to the role of
directing or governing world affairs as any people you could find.
That being said, however, the truth is that Americans do not
direct anything.
The American power establishment very much does.
A plutocracy and some major lobbies supported by the massive
resources of CIA and the Pentagon.
That's who runs the world.
