Trump's Zionist Neocon Cabinet

So, I wanted to talk about Trump and his appointments, his cabinet appointments, because everyone is sort of speculating about what that means. Because they're all, Zionist and very NeoCon sort of people. You know, if if you've been if you've been like looking at geopolitics and doing geopolitical analysis for any period of time or for a significant period of time, should say, You learn that there are some situations where the best analytical approach is wait and see. Because I remember when Trump first in his first term, and he appointed Rex Tillerson, who was Exxon CEO, ex ex Exxon CEO. Many people were thinking, okay, well that's gonna be war.

And and a lot of people were doing analysis, and I confess that I also did at the time. And it proved to be really premature because I don't even know how long Rex Tillichen lasted. And that's the thing to remember about Trump. When he when he when he gives you this cabinet, this is a first draft cabinet. None of us know how how long any of these people are gonna last in his cabinet.

I think he seem he he seems to be notoriously difficult to work with. And I think he went through what at least a couple of different secretaries of state in his last term. I think three heads of the CIA and four secretaries of defense in four years. The the first and the main thing that you should consider about Trump is generally speaking, wait and see. Because there's always a huge chasm between his rhetoric and what he actually does.

And I think that in terms of his his cabinet appointments, he also appoints people for very on a very narrow criteria, on an egotistical criteria to some extent, and with a very specific policy in mind. Like, for example, the border or immigration or China, or something like that, or Ukraine. And he's not thinking about all of the ramifications that we're thinking about, for example. And the things that are our priorities are not his priorities. And that's not necessarily why he appointed these people because of the things that matter to us.

And that therefore, disturb us about those cabinet appointments. He's appointing them because of one or two particular things about them that he likes. And it might even be just because they like him and they have supported him or what have you. And and the the main thing to remember is that none of them may last. But then the other thing to remember is that this isn't the Biden administration, which was basically when The United States for the last four years, The United States has been ruled by a cabinet, not by a president.

That's not the case with Trump. Trump makes decisions.

Yeah. He runs the show.

He runs the show. Within the White House, he runs the show. And this has led to this led to problems during his administration and that you had people in the cabinet who were doing things secretly and not talking to him and not conveying intelligence to him and information to him. Like about Syria, for example. There were a lot of things going on.

Where Trump wanted something done and they told him that they were gonna do it and then they did something else and they were hiding it. So I would expect that those kinds of problems will happen in this administration as well, because Trump is not a mainstream republican at all. And I think that a lot of his cabinet appointments are mainstream republicans who are probably going to try to do to to work with some sort of autonomy and maybe against what Trump wants or else just not telling him or not implementing what he wants or what have you. The other thing I think to remember is that Trump is nobody's savior. Don't think he's your savior.

Don't think that he's going to solve all of the problems. Trump is a ruthless businessman, egomaniac, who has his own personal private interests. To our advantage, I think that a lot of his interests align with policies that or or can be translated into policies that are less harmful to us globally. Less harmful to the global South, less harmful to the Muslim world, less harmful to the Khaleed, and ultimately, in sha'Allah, less harmful to Palestine. Now, with regards to the Zionists in his cabinet, the idea is that this means that he will be a, you know, very pro Netanyahu, pro Likud, pro Zionist administration, and will give Netanyahu whatever he wants and that the genocide will continue and get worse and expand.

Of course, that's a possibility. But if you want to change anything, with Israel, you need to understand that the hard line element in Israel is huge. The overwhelming majority of Israelis believe that Netanyahu hasn't done enough in Gaza. So like when you see the protest in Israel, they're not protesting for peace. They're protesting because Netanyahu hasn't gotten the hostages back.

Right. That he hasn't been effective in the slaughter. They're not they're not objecting to the slaughter. So you're dealing with an incredibly radicalized extremist population, an incredibly radicalized extremist society and government. And you can't negotiate with people like that or you can't send someone over there to negotiate with them and do deals with them who is not cut from the same cloth, they'll reject immediately.

You know, they they I remember when they were trying to they wanted to make the deal for Saudi Arabia to to develop nuclear power. And the right wing Republicans in Washington were against it and were going to oppose it. And the Israelis were asked to send over some Zionists from their side to convince congress that it was fine. So this is this is this is the relationship. The Zionists talk to the Zionists.

Only the Zionists can talk sense to the Zionists. Because they have They're so propagandized and indoctrinated that anyone who isn't pro Israel with a star of David tattooed on their forehead, he's not one of us.

Right.

So we don't listen to him. Like I said in the chat, you can't send Norman Finkelstein over to negotiate with Netanyahu. You'd be rejected outright. You you They're all part of a club and they only talk to other members of the club.

Yes. Very insular.

Yeah. But here's here's the the negative, extremely negative possibility also, which is that if the long term if the long term plan for Palestine is a one state solution, then it could be the precursor to a one state solution could be, and there could be people who are supporting this and who are promoting this and who are interested in achieving this, the Israeli annexation of Gaza and the West Bank. That's not something you can discard as a possibility. They could actually have that in mind.

In that scheme of

That now we're going to take over. Everything will be under the under one jurisdiction, under one government, and then functionally you have one state. And therefore, why are we negotiating a two state? Now we negotiate for Palestinian rights under the annexed territories. And we and rather than rather than them being annexed, they just become integrated into the totality of the country.

And now now our struggle becomes for negotiating for equal rights and citizenship.

Yeah. As opposed to expelling.

As opposed to expulsion. Yeah. But of course, the Zionists will want it to be expulsion.

Of course.

Will be their plan. This is the other thing I wanted to see with regards to that. I've noticed some people in the discussion group, the middle nation discussion group talking about, oh, it doesn't really bode well that there are these Zionists in the cabinet, that there are these neo cons in the cabinet and so forth. You don't run the world anymore. It's not that it's not that whoever is sitting in the White House or whoever is in Washington or whatever now determines all global power dynamics.

No. Those days are over. Just because you have Trump in office, just because you have, I don't know, a Zionist, secretary of state, secretary of defense, neocons here and there. This doesn't change the reality of the global shift at all. And you will have to adapt.

Washington will have to adapt. Trump will have to adapt. Zionists in Washington will have to adapt. So having them in office doesn't mean now we're gonna go backwards and and you're going to now change the tilt of the planet back in your favor. No.

Not at all. You're just making it harder on yourselves. And and you're just deciding, you know, if if these people stay and as you know, okay, here's the other thing also. Internationally, if we look at Trump's first administration, his first term, internationally he's extremely pragmatic. He's he's a pragmatic deal maker.

He's not adventurous. He believes in making deals. And he has, as I've talked about many times, he's very connected, he's very close to the Khaleed, he's very close to bin Salman, he's close to bin Zayed, he's close to The Gulf, he's close to the Arabs. So I don't I don't personally think that he's interested in war and the neo con approach to the world. And and even if his cabinet appointees might be interested in those things, they're not gonna get to do whatever they want.

And this may or may not lead to them leaving the administration at some point. They may be in there thinking that they can run things, but it's not gonna turn out that way. And it's not gonna and and and this isn't necessarily just because of Trump. Biden couldn't do whatever he wanted to do. The Biden White House couldn't do whatever they wanted to do because you're not the center of the universe anymore.

You have to respond to the rest of the world now. You have to respond to the global South. You have to respond to China, to Russia, to Saudi Arabia, to BRICS. It's you don't run the show. You're not the only ones anymore.

So it doesn't matter who who, Trump puts in his cabinet. At at at at the way the way the global power dynamics are now is that you have to have people in your cabinet. You have to have people in your government who can work with the rest of the world. And if they can't, it's just gonna be more difficult for you. That's all.

It's only going to be more difficult for you. In my opinion, I think that that Trump's Trump's election as I said when it happened, I think that it has made the road easier for the for the transition to the global South. I think it's made it easier. I I'm not overreacting to these cabinet appointments Because like I said, I don't even know how long they're gonna last anyway. And I don't know how much power they're going to have, how much autonomy they're going to have.

And at the end of the day, you're not running things.

Yeah. And it's just been a minute. We haven't seen

Well, he hasn't even gotten in office yet. I mean, he's still president-elect. So between now and January, he could have a he could have a fight with any of them. He could change his mind with any of them.
