USA has lost the first round to Russia on Ukraine

USA has lost the first round to Russia on Ukraine

Dear Sir or Madam

Sub:- USA without removing its three weaknesses, can't comprehensively
take-on Russia about Ukraine.

-- No doubt, USA (who, out of absurd so-called war weariness,
nowadays does not believe in using its immense military power even for
protecting its international legal commitments) has lost the first
round to Russia on Ukraine where on Tuesday Crimea has signed merger
with Russian President despite 'Budapest Memorandum on Security
Assurance 1994' where USA also gave guarantee to protect the
territorial integrity of Ukraine. Presently it will not be proper to
give any final opinion on US hope that, with the support of its EU and
other Allies and with the so-called 'weapon' of economic sanctions, US
will be able to constrain Russia to fall in line. But one thing is
sure that if three weaknesses [mentioned at (A), (B), (C)] are not
removed then  USA & Allies are assuming too much about the efficacy of
this economic 'weapon', as explained below:-

(1)- At this stage now there is no point in going into blame game
between US & Allies on one side and Russia on other side on Ukraine.
Russia (with veto power at UN) is not Iran. Moreover, USA is loved for
its professed 'exceptionalism' but hated because it does not walk this
talk. Therefore, there is no possibility of global economical /
financial sanctions against Russia. Maximum only one fourth of mankind
(USA and its EU / NATO / Western Allies) will be imposing sanctions on
Russia. Whereas the rest the three fourth of mankind [China, India,
Muslim countries (especially after Russia rakes up one-State-solution
to Israel - Palestinian problem) and others] though may not side with
Russia in Ukraine dispute but certainly will not go as far as to
support the imposing of sanctions on Russia.

(2)- USA & Allies will mainly depend upon comprehensive economic /
financial sanctions with a hope to such an extent that Russian stocks
will crash in stock markets all over the world, its currency will
collapse, its petroleum exports (allegedly its main economic strength)
to Western Europe etc will dry up and so on and on. But, if it comes
true then it is exactly from here that the problems for USA & its
Allies will mainly start.

(3)- In Ukraine, Russia has been countering USA & its Allies on their
own turf of democracy (on which they defeated USSR). Similarly in
relation to  three issues also, Russia will fight USA in the name of
'American-Exceptionalism' (which Prez Obama claimed during 2013 speech
related to Syria at UN) in the service of human rights world over.
This Americanism is mainly based on four principle of democracy with
rule of law, secularism, federalism and free-market-economy with
genuine currency, as explained below:-

(4)- Russia with said economically back on the wall, in desperation
may go for three profound transformation in global economic -political
order which USA & its Allies will find extremely difficult to counter
or even cope with, namely (A)- Common genuine global currency for rest
of the world lethally hitting both Dollar and Euro hard (B)- In place
of veto wielding -UN or simultaneously another  global body (say)
Participatory Nations (PN) with voting rights to every PN member based
on formula (C)- One-State-solution for Israel / Palestine problem.

(A)- COMMON GENUINE GLOBAL CURRENCY:-

(i)- USA, presently the leader of free world due to its economic
prowess, fought its war of Independence in 1770 s mainly for economic
reasons. Currency was one of the main reason, where the colonies of
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania had started currency against asset
back-up of not the precious metals like gold & silver under physical
possession but other assets like land etc under constructive
possession of money issuing authority (redeemable in eight years and
at 5% interest). This brought so huge money to Government at
Philadelphia that taxes had to be reduced. UK tried to demolish this
currency by printing counterfeit currency in 1770s. But USA has not
woken-up despite still on-going economic crises of 2007 which was
caused due to immense fake fiat paper money (without proper asset
back-up) and which has de-stabilized global economic & financial
system and has brought immense economic hardships and other problems
for the entire
world.

(ii)- Therefore if Russia takes the lead for launching Global (may be
minus USA & EU) Currency with proper asset back-up under physical and
constructive possession of money issuing authority of PN, with its
branches in different PN member countries, then the economic &
financial havoc it will cause to the economies of USA and its Allies
is simply frightening to say the least.

(B)- PARTICIPATORY NATIONS:-

(i)- US revolution was fought on slogan 'No taxation without
representation'. This means that no burden can be taken without
representation. But USA expect rest of the world to take the burden of
global peace & prosperity without giving it representation in UNSC.
The USA for long has neglected the demand of rest of the world for
replacing veto wielding UN by PN with voting rights to all PN members
as per formula based on contribution to PN of men (including martial
for Peace Keeping Force & civilians as election conducting personnel
to assist PN Election Commission), material (machines, equipment,
armaments, ammunition etc) and money (mainly based on GDP of the
member countries).

(ii)- Russia can take the lead for launching this PN. Though in PN
Russia and China will loose the benefit of veto as they have in UN.
But Russia, in order to defeat USA and its Allies on Ukraine, will not
mind doing so. As far China, in PN it will be a country with highest
GDP and population therefore as per formula it will still have
predominant position in PN. Therefore, China will also not mind
joining PN especially in view of other benefits PN will bring to
China.

(C)- ONE-STATE-SOLUTION FOR ISRAEL / PALESTINE :-

(i)- By brazenly violating the terms of Balfour Declaration of 1917
(and other League of Nation's subsequent promises regarding
Trusteeship), the present day Israel (from where Palestinians have
been summarily driven out by force), has been justified mainly in the
name of holocaust in which ~ 6 millions Jews were allegedly butchered
in Europe during World War II. The USA has been soft towards and has
shown favor to its cousins of Europe (and of Christianity) like
Germany, Poland, Ukraine etc, who were responsible for this holocaust.
On the contrary USA unnecessarily became party in harassing and
persecuting Muslim Palestinians (who were not at all responsible for
said holocaust) even by going to the extent of promising to establish
the theocratic Jewish State of Israel and that too in this age of
'Secularism', another American value since the days of US Revolution.

(ii)- It will take only one clarion call by Russia (especially through
PN) to ask the Muslim countries / Muslims to demand and work for
One-State-Solution of Israel - Palestine problem. And the entire array
of USA & its Allies and some rulers of Muslim countries including some
so-called Palestinian leaders (who are co-operating with USA & Allies
in realizing this absurd and unethical and illegitimate
Two-State-Solution) will be rendered ineffective and irrelevant.

(iii)- This call by Russia / PN for One-State-Solution will unleash
such tremendous political Tsunami in Muslim countries and in Muslim
population all over the world that it will leave USA & its Allies and
its political leadership terribly battered and bruised politically.

Therefore, unless USA overcomes these three weaknesses (which is
nothing but betrayal of American values), USA & its Allies hardly have
any chance of ultimate victory against Russia on Ukraine through the
so-called 'weapon' of economic sanctions.

Yours truly
