The Wages of Globaloney

PJBuchanan is a student of geopolitical history but--having crossed the Un-Crossables--will never be used as a reference by "respectable people."  Nonetheless he persists, and here he provides a very concise history of the recent Globaloney Wars--something that Doddering Joe Sundown still promotes.

Also noteworthy:  the cultural gap which is now playing out as Europe is invaded.

The 21st-century interventions and wars of the West in the Islamic world have not gone well.

George W. Bush was goaded into invading Iraq. Barack Obama was persuaded to overthrow Colonel Moammar Gadhafi in Libya and the Assad regime in Damascus. Obama ordered U.S. forces to assist Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in his war to crush Houthi rebels who had ousted Riyadh’s resident puppet in Yemen.

And what has the West reaped from our Mideast wars?

In Syria and Yemen, we have helped to create two of the world’s greatest human rights disasters. In Libya, we have a new civil war. In Iraq, we now battle Iran for influence inside a nation we “liberated” in 2003

In Afghanistan, we have concluded a deal with our enemy of two decades, the Taliban, that will enable us to pull our 12,000 troops out of the country in 14 months and let our Afghan allies work it out, or fight it out, with the Taliban. America is washing its hands of its longest war.

In five wars over 20 years, we lost 7,000 soldiers with some 40,000 wounded. We plunged the wealth of an empire into these wars....

PJ is not too optimistic about the future of the European Powers (Germany, France, England) given their willingness to accommodate an invasion, and he indirectly touches on the Culture Problem:

...Now the peoples of the new nations, dissatisfied with what their liberated lands and rulers have produced, have decided to come to Europe to enjoy in the West what they cannot replicate at home....

They cannot replicate what they cannot understand:  the culture.
