Whatever Happened to Conservatives? by Paul Craig Roberts

Conservatives of whom there were few in universities, media, and politics were a principled opposition of the wayward ways in which United States of Americans were being led.

They were defenders of the Constitution. They believed that the United States governments job was to protect citizens constitutional rights and to serve American interests rather than the interest of foreign governments.

This last belief was compromised by conservatives opposition to the Soviet Union and support for wars, primarily the Vietnam War, that were seen as necessary to constrain Communist expansion.

This compromise has lived on, and the neoconservative agenda of American hegemony in Israels interest has eroded the original conservatism. T

oday what passes for "conservatives" are trying to silence Candace Owens for reporting honestly on Israels genocide of the Palestinians. They now use the tactics that they damned the liberal-left for using.

Now the Republican Party, once considered to be a conservative opposition, is considering inviting Netanyahu, the Slaughterer of the Palestinians, to address Congress.

Any conservative, any person of integrity would have to wonder why a mass murderer, an architect of the genocide of a people and a country, would be invited to address the United States Congress.

Apparently, it is to score off of Democrat Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer who recently harshly criticized Netanyahu.

In other words, conservatism has been reduced to politics.

I do not really trust Axios, and this report could have as its intention to undermine confidence in the Republican House of Representatives.

On the other hand, Axios report fits with the conservative effort to censor Candace Owens.

"Far-right" is the liberal-lefts description of conservatives, and this identification of the two could be false.

Nevertheless, I used to know the conservative intellectuals. Most of them are dead. And if they have replacements, the replacements are not very visible.

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, the former Assistant Secretary of the United States Treasury, draws upon his experience as a Washington,D.C. insider to reveal the truth about the manipulation of the gold market, 9-11-01, COVID-19, the war in Ukraine, and several other mass deceptions.

"Dr. Roberts is one of few remaining voices of truth in the West. His essays expose the systematic lies of Western mainstream media, which now provide propaganda rather than news.

He explains these false narratives are designed to create a public lost in a Matrix of misinformation, which conditions people to hate and fear; the hatred of internal "enemies" prevents social cohesion that could effectively challenge governmental authority, while external enemies are demonized to make people accept endless war.

"Most importantly, Mr. Roberts warns of the imminent danger of a nuclear holocaust, which now places us "one nanosecond" away from nuclear Armageddon.

If you want to better understand why all the things we once held sacred - family, freedom, justice and peace - are now under relentless attack by the government, media, and academia, then read this book, it will open your eyes." - Professor Steven Starr, former Director at the University of Missouris Clinical Laboratory Sciences Program
