“CROSSING THE RUBICON”
The European Union is shaken by the problems of several of its members and the worst of it is that it is its main members that can lead to its collapse
By Sir Charlattam
T oday more than
ever, the words of Julius Caesar resonate with sense when, back in the past,
returning to Rome after his glorious conquests, he decided to enter Rome with
his armed army, violating the laws of the hated Senate on the prohibition
imposed to guarantee the security of the Republic. When he crossed the Rubicon
River, he exclaimed to his troops those words, which was the signal that there
would be no turning back and that from then on everything would be left to his
fate. Something similar happens with the European Union and in particular with
several of its members, especially with France and Great Britain, each of them
with their own Julio´s César trying to change the Block Status Quo to which
they are subject.
Let's look for example France. Taken as an example by the pro-Europeans of the Argentine intellectual elite, it has demonstrated for eight years until this part that it has never left its neocolonial ambitions that filled the coffers of the banks and the great rich French families. That Chauvinism that nobody wants to see and that from the right to the left gala, exercised without blushing to justify military adventures like the ones we havebeen seeing from Libya to the present against Syria. Do not forget what motive for the French to go to North Africa and in particular to Libya: Oil and gold reserves
Added to this, the dirty intrigues and operations, mounted by their intelligence agencies that using Islamist terrorism as a screen, orchestrated together the Turkish and Saudi partners with whom they were sabotaging Syria, attacks such as "Charlie Hebdo" with the intention to justify medically the threat of ISIS against France. This is something that most of the French are aware of and at the mercy of these adventures that have caused - in addition to the deaths and violations of the human rights of millions of people - the humanitarian refugee crises more terrible than they are century, France is plunged into total chaos, with a galloping economic crisis, increasing unemployment and social upheaval that has taken a new and virulent street form of expression with yellow vests. Too many bad signals so that the obsequious media and journalists of liberal Argentine liberalism, sympathetic without pause of European models, want to think about it.
Nor will analyze the illegal interference that has been taking Paris in the Syrian crisis. Talking about the dirty operations orchestrated in conjunction with their American and Israeli colleagues to try to overthrow President Bashar Al Assad, is something difficult to face as they are situations too harsh and openly violating international law so that they can be taken care of by the naive journalism pseudo independent argentine. If at any time during the G-20 this sycophancy sector played - beyond the role of the vice president - mediately with the similarities and coincidences between Emanuel Macron and Mauricio Macri, today they have forgotten about it since, the policies that The French leader is as aberrant as his Argentine counterpart. Proof of this is the street rebellion that has been flogging Parisian streets for weeks now, with no sign that they can calm down.
The same can be said of Great Britain and its Prime Minister Theresa May, who, besides being in a strong crisis after the failure to realize the immediate exit of the EU through the Brexit (having to negotiate a gradual and discussed exit), besides the failure politician that has represented the internal fights between British and Irish of the Conservative party, must tolerate jokes by his homonym with a young and voluptuous British porn star (Teresa May). Although London and in particular the sinister brains of the Foreign Office have already drawn ambitious plans to revive the epochs of British colonialism of the old empire, the realization of Brexit in British political life is still far from being seen. Anyway, if London manages to leave the EU things will not be the same and this can already be sensed in the costs of transport and freight of shipments of maritime merchandise from British ports to Paris or Frankfurt. This has been the point of disagreement between the supporters of Brexit and those who do not, the latter accusing the serious consequences for the economy and trade of the crown. The benefits of EU membership clearly will not be usufruct by London.
May also contributed a lot to the lie of the global terrorism terror of ISIS only that, in the last two years until this part has been inclining its preferences to look for in Russia the number one public enemy of the world. The criminal fraud mounted around ex- Russian agent Skripal, demonstrates until where they tried to arrive to muddy the relations with Russia. The lady who wanted to emulate "Maggie iron skirts", has not known how to play dirty or better would have to say maybe, she could not cheat as her predecessors had done, especially Tony Blair, a bastard who despite having boasted with smiles that Iraq in 2002 had weapons of mass destruction, a few years ago it was verified through the "Chilcot" report that all that was a lie that cost the Iraqis more than a million and a half inhabitants killed and the destruction of their country. In this way, both Macron and May have crossed the Rubicon but unlike Julius Caesar, both seem unable to completely cross that river of problems that each of them must resolve and that rather, will be carried by the current of the story like two second-rate ruffians wanting to play first.
