Bidens "Summit for Democracy" Is a Vile Circus for New Cold War!

The biggest enemy of the basic democratic rights is the United States government - and yet we have this Biden conference declaring support for democracy.

United States President Joe Bidens two-day "summit for democracy" was a farce even before it began this week. Now it has turned into a vile circus for Cold War hostility that greatly threatens world democracy, human rights and peace - the very antithesis of what the hubristic Americans claim.

On the second day of this video conference hosted by Joe Biden, news emerged of the British High Court ruling in favor of the United States government that Julian Assange is to be extradited to the United States to face trumped-up charges of espionage which could result in a death sentence.

Julian Assange is being persecuted for exposing massive United States war crimes, crimes against humanity, global espionage felonies and corruption. His case is a hideous warning that free speech and independent journalism are under ruthless attack by the United States authorities. In other words, the biggest enemy of the most basic of democratic rights is the United States government - and yet at the same time, we have this grotesque conference hosted by Joe Biden declaring support for democracy.

Our own journal, Strategic Culture Foundation, is also coming under sustained attack from Washington,D.C.. Several of our United States of American contributors have been banned from writing for this journal under the threat of massive financial penalties. This is because the United States government makes the slanderous claim that SCF is directed by Russian state intelligence. See this recent interview by one of our former contributors Daniel Lazare who has denounced what he calls a move to censor free speech and critical thinking.

It, therefore, is truly absurd - and nauseating - for United States of American leaders to pontificate on such rights.

From the video conference hosted by Biden, one image said it all. President Biden was seen addressing a blur of TV screens each displaying the face of leaders of nations invited by Washington,D.C. to the "summit for democracy". It resembled more a scene from a satirical movie. The self-appointed leader of the free world warned about the "backsliding of democracy" caused by "autocrats" (meaning China and Russia).

President Biden called for the protection of voting rights and free speech. This while his administration is seeking to incarcerate Julian Assange for the rest of his life because he dared to exercise his inalienable right of free speech.

Julian Assange should be honored by the world for his exposing of massive United States crimes and for his heroic contribution to truth. He revealed to the world the real and brute nature of Washington,D.C.s pursuit of global power.

And for that, he is being viciously, mercilessly persecuted.

It is outrageous that the leader of such a criminal government should be lecturing the world about the supposed virtues of democracy and human rights.

It is deeply disturbing that such an insult to morals and intelligence seems to be even tolerated as if normal. President Biden or any other United States leader should be scorned, not indulged.

The list of participants invited to President Bidens circus is shot through with inconsistencies and double standards. Even the normally dutiful United States media were obliged to note the incongruities and lack of principle in the virtual gathering of 110 countries. Some of those attending were classified as less democratic than some of those excluded noted the United States-based Freedom House.

It is blatant that the convocation by President Biden was aimed at self-serving geopolitical power-play. The territory of Taiwan was invited as a representative of democracy while China was excluded. Under United States law, the One China policy deems Beijing as having sovereignty over Taiwan. So, the pointed invitation of Taipei over Beijing is an astounding provocation to China by the United States.

Ukraine was invited to attend while Russia was also excluded.

Since the United States-backed coup d etat in Kiev in 2014 against an elected government, Ukraine has become a byword for corruption and the killing of journalists. The farcical invite by President Biden is another geopolitical provocation that will embolden the Kiev regime to escalate further its hostilities towards Russia.

What Bidens jamboree is all about is a flagrant attempt to divide the world into a Cold War demarcation. Russia and China have rebuked the initiative for harming international cooperation and increasing conflict.

There is not a scintilla of substance in what the Biden administration is attempting. The meaning and purpose of the "summit for democracy" is the opposite. It is about creating tensions, conflict, undermining democracy and fomenting war.

But it really shows the absolutely dangerous hubris of Washington,D.C. It somehow is deluded in thinking that it is uniquely endowed to host a conference on democracy when it fact it has no shame about being a ringmaster for conflict and war.

The United States history of genocide against native Americans, its decades of illegal foreign wars of aggression and destruction of nations, its relentless subversion of foreign governments - all of this and more are glaring proof that Washington,D.C. is the center of global criminality.

In order to manipulate the world under its hegemony, we have the risible attempt to corral nations into enemy camps of supposed democracy and autocracy.

Ultimately, however, this charade is doomed to fail.

The objective reality is of a changing world, whereby United States capitalist, hyper-militarized power is failing amid the emergence of a multipolar international order. That fundamental historic development cannot be countered by futile machinations.

Of immense importance, too, the spectacle of hypocrisy seen this week also fatally undermines the authority of the United States governing system in the eyes of its own people.

President Biden offering blandishments about democracy comes across as crass Marie-Antoinette stuff when so many United States of American citizens are dying from a pandemic that their government will not spend money on to properly eradicate; when so many citizens are struggling with poverty and trying to feed their families; when Congress passes an annual military budget of $770 billion; and when millions of United States of Americans are being barred from voting by new racist election laws.

President Bidens summit for democracy is disgusting in its fraudulence, not just towards the wider world but towards his own nation.

This is not just about Joe Biden and the Democrats. The Republican Party is even more unhinged from the realities of United States citizens and the world. The entire political class in the United States is bankrupt: morally, politically and economically.

This vile circus of Cold War theatrics that President Biden oversaw this week is really a Swansong of failed United States of American "democracy".
