Straussians Take Control of the United Nations and NATO

• https://www.lewrockwell.com, By Thierry Meyssan

To everyone's surprise, they are present in the European Union, but especially in the United Nations and in the Contact Group on the Defense of Ukraine. Institutions dedicated to peace have been hijacked by the warmongers.

For nearly a year, President Donald Trump has been putting America back in order. He has reestablished the principles of equality before the law and merit-based promotion at the expense of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). He has slashed federal budgets for anything related to imperial spending and attempted to restore the military's primary function: homeland defense.

At the same time, we all see how he is failing to achieve the peace he hoped for in Ukraine and Palestine. He is letting the Europeans fight not for Ukraine, but against Russia and Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition persisting in its program of a "Greater Israel," that is, the annexation of its neighbors  [ 1 ] .

However, we fail to see the worst of it: the Straussians, who held the upper hand under George Bush Jr., Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, are still not defeated. They have retreated into two intergovernmental organizations: NATO and the UN.

Outside NATO, they have taken control of the Contact Group on the Defence of Ukraine (formerly the Ramstein Group), which, since 9 September, no longer meets alternately at the US military base in Ramstein and at NATO headquarters in Mons-Brussels, but now also in London.

They, along with Ukrainian intelligence, organized drone flights over Western and Northern European airports. They then pushed for the delivery of German Patriot missile batteries to Ukraine, after secretly organizing the transfer of the first batteries from Israel.

They are still the ones who falsified the reports of the UN General Secretariat on the meetings of the Security Council on 19 and 26 September  [ 2 ] . Contrary to these reports – which we were wrong to believe – the Security Council did not validate the return of sanctions against Iran. Moreover, it did not have the power to do so.

This summer, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom adopted a strange common position on the JCPoA, the nuclear agreement signed during the 5+1 negotiations with Iran. As a reminder, the United States led these negotiations ostensibly to end Iran's military nuclear program and prevent the country from possessing an atomic bomb. After a round of discussions, the meetings were interrupted for a year while Washington and Tehran concluded a secret protocol about which we know nothing. Then the negotiations resumed and were immediately concluded by a treaty in Vienna. It is also important to remember that China and Russia, who participated in the negotiations, both attested that there had been no Iranian military nuclear program since 1988.
