Can America get away with its crimes?
Author: Talib Aliyev, analyst
In Greek mythology, Themis was considered the goddess of justice, she was the second wife of Zeus and bore him three children: Eunomia (Benevolence), Dike (Justice), and Eirene (Peace). In the modern world, Themis is the personification of justice, her statues are blindfolded, swords and scales set in front of court buildings, and symbolize the impartiality of justice, the objectivity of justice, and the inevitability of punishment for crimes committed. Looking at the current situation in the world, one gets the impression that either Themis has a transparent bandage, the scales have rusted, or the sword has become blunt.
The attention of all mankind is now drawn to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, which is covered in such detail in the media and social networks that it creates a false effect of presence for the reader as if he is directly involved in the events unfolding in Donetsk or Kherson regions. Based on videos shot by unknown operators, specific conclusions are drawn or even important legal decisions are made. Increasingly, anonymous editors are gaining the trust of a large number of Internet users through their content and are entering into competition with the official authorities, which have much more resources and evidence base. Of course, opinion makers do this at the behest of their curators. But it often happens that the process goes too far and the puppeteer loses control of his toy.
One clear example of this was the attempt by the collective West to create an international court to hear war crimes, single-handedly make decisions, and write its own history. Basically, nothing new. If there is no evidence, Hollywood or a test tube of washing powder will help, as it was before the invasion of Iraq. Here, the Western lackeys overdid it a little and almost brought the court to their own masters.
It turns out that war crimes can be judged. Probably, just at that moment, Themis' blindfold slipped from her eyes, and the United States resolutely rejected the opportunity to transfer the alleged evidence of Russia's illegal actions in Ukraine to the international court. This was reported by the American edition of The New York Times. And what happened? Maybe Washington was afraid that someone would also pass on the available evidence of real American war crimes around the world. And then what?
The fact is that in the list of the main aggressor countries, the United States occupies an honorable first place. In the 20th and 21st centuries, the United States fought more than fifty times. They also unleashed many wars. In the second decade of our century, Americans fought in seven countries at once - Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, and Niger.
Most often, US military operations were military interventions that violated international law. In terms of the number of wars in almost any period of time, the United States significantly exceeds any other state, including Russia. It is worth noting that, with rare exceptions, American invasions were not justified by any threat to the security of the United States itself, but were aimed at seizing new territories or establishing political and economic dominance in foreign countries. Characteristically, despite the huge number of military operations, the United States officially declared war only 11 times.
As a result of US actions, a wide arc of global instability has formed in the world, stretching from Haiti to Afghanistan. We have witnessed the brutal bombing of Yugoslavia with depleted uranium shells, and military incursions into Afghanistan and Iraq, which have become catalysts for the growth of terrorist activity in the Middle East. Let's not talk about the millions of innocent victims of American wars.
The so-called "cancer conspiracy" of the American intelligence services against the heads of the Latin American republics, who advocate a just world order, is distinguished by particular cynicism in the lists of Washington's crimes.
So, in Latin America, oncology quite unexpectedly struck Fernando Lugo, Luis Inacio Lula da Silva, Hugo Chavez, and Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. All of them - former and current presidents of Paraguay, Brazil, Venezuela, and Argentina - actively opposed the American dictatorship, but suddenly became cancer patients. At the same time, the very moment of the “epidemic” is curious. At one time, the United States was deeply bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan and missed serious events in the countries of Latin America - right next to it. In their "backyard," the real opposition to American hegemony has matured. Therefore, they had no way to regain their lost influence in the Western Hemisphere, except for the physical elimination of objectionable leaders with the help of secret CIA technologies. Of course, this is unprovable, but such conclusions suggest themselves after a strange and rapid “epidemic of oncology” among high-ranking patients.
This is just an episode from the big US crime case and I want Themis to finally show impartiality, justice, and objectivity of justice and prove to the whole world the inevitability of punishment for the crimes committed.
The answer to the question "Will the US be punished for its crimes?" is also simple. Undoubtedly, in the world there is no crime without punishment, if this is impossible in this world, although it may be otherwise, then it definitely cannot escape the punishment of God...
