A Black perspective on American Geopolitics
All Eyes are on America. The 'Conflict' in Iran continues, as Donald Trump makes daily posts on Truth Social, in an effort to manipulate Global Markets, but negotiations with Iranian counterparts remain slow going. Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz remains Closed, & the Global Economy is stuck in a quagmire of Trump's own making. Geopolitical Analysts collectively agree that Trump, Lindsey Graham, & Pete Hegseth are doing the bidding of Benjamin Netanyahu & the Israeli Government. The same Geopolitical Analysts agree that Trump appears to be stalling, while The U.S. restocks Armaments in preparation for another round of Attacks. The 'Plan' is Destabilization. The U.S. & Israel hoped a 'Decapitation Strike', combined with a Bombing Campaign, & internal 'Sleeper Cells' would create an environment of unrest in Iran that they could manipulate to bring about 'Regime Change'.
On the Other Side, We see an almost smug Iranian Government that is practically daring the U.S. & Israel to make a move. As Trump & his Cabinet weigh their options, The World is watching. Everyone heard his campaign promise to bring Peace in Gaza, end the Ukrainian War in One Day, & negotiate 'Deals' to end ALL Wars. Trump said that he intended to lead as a 'Peacetime President', & petitioned heavily for the Nobel Peace Prize. During his 1st Year in Office, Donald Trump claimed success in ending several Conflicts, but Ukraine, Gaza, Congo, & Sudan remain ongoing. Despite transferring [strategic] Military Resources to the Mediterranean Theater, the U.S. continues to hypothesize about:
A possible/ eventual Conflict with China
Expanding Operations in Venezuela to include a Cuban 'Regime Change'
A 'Recolonization' of Afrika
Black America has collectively listened to the conversations of Geopolitical Experts, & We hear a familiar argument of Sustained Resilience being raised as a tactic. Our Lineage, has been engaged in a sustained Resistance Struggle against 'Western Hegemony', since 1526 ACE (possibly earlier). This Year, We commemorate 500Yrs of 'Sustained Resilience'; including 250Yrs of fighting Americanism- from within the 'Belly of the Beast'. From Our vantage point, We see how thin the U.S. is spreading itself. Donald Trump's 'Display of Strength', is only exposing America's Military shortcomings. China & Russia are paying close attention to U.S. deployments; BOTH have a motivation to keep the current Iranian Government in power.
The Trump Administration doesn't scare Blackfolk. He's not doing ANYTHING Foreign or Domestically, that hasn't been done to Us at some point in American History. The only difference between Trump & previous Presidents, is his willingness to 'stick it' to EVERYONE. We're well versed on how Benign Neglect Policies siphoned resources from Us & transferred them to 'Newcomers'. We sometimes joke about their Sense of Privilege, but the Collective Panic that We see among Non Black Americans is worth noting. I'm reminded of that Israeli Ambassador speaking in Atlanta- She said Black American Youth, were a 'Threat' to Israel's National Security. I can rationalize how Israel can see a threat to America, as a threat to them.
I fully understand how Black America is seen as the biggest threat to American National Security. NO ONE challenges U.S. Policy more than We do. Despite their best efforts to Silence & Exterminate Us, Blackfolk remain a constant reminder of America's True Legacy. We can also understand how the Alphabet Agencies & their NGO proxies would love to have power over Our Politics. The U.S. Government has used Immigrants to supplant Us for over 175Yrs, so a 'Deep Dive' into the geopolitics of Immigration is long overdue. We can rationalize how European, Hispanic, & Asian Immigrants aspire to Whiteness, & how they may adopt Mainstream Ideals. We were literally blindsided by the notion that a considerable number of Caribbean & Afrikan Immigrants may share the same sentiment.
We assumed that All Melanated People shared a similar sentiment to Ours in America. We learned about the Caribbean Maroons, the Mau Mau, & the Freedom Fighters in Algeria, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, & Angola. Our Grandfathers tried to join Ethiopia in their War against Mussolini. We joined the Anti- Apartheid Movement & FORCED American Divestment in Apartheid South Afrika. We assumed that these people shared Our passion for fighting White Supremacy. We now have empirical evidence that a majority of the Melanated Masses of The World are beholden to Western Hegemony & White Supremacy. We see the same traits throughout the Diaspora- a Collective aspiration to a European Standard of doing things, & acceptance of their 'place' on the Totem Pole. As a general practice, they sit back while Asians dominate their spaces & denigrate them in their Own House. Their 'Culture' is only superior, when they compare it to Black American Culture.
Delineation has given us an ability to step outside ourselves & look at things from a 'Bird's Eye view'. Looking at Pan Afrikanism & the 'Black & Brown Coalition' from this view, We noticed an assortment of Anti-Black American sentiment. We also saw a clear double standard, in regard to reciprocation. The amount of Anti-Black rhetoric that was hurled at Us (from ALL CORNERS of the World), while We commemorated 100Yrs of celebrating 'Black American' History & Achievement was more than mind boggling, it was intentional! The Collective assessment to date, is: These Communities have 'Lots of Smoke' for ADOS/ FBA [Freedmen], but little Energy for the Whitefolk making derogatory comments & taking action against them.
Being 'In' America, We are [intimately] aware of the capabilities of the U.S. Government. They literally 'cut their teeth' on Blackfolk, so their tactics are very familiar to Us. It's one of MANY reasons why We're 'Foundational'. We see (over & over) how Nations are destabilized & Governments toppled; fruits of the time tested tactic of 'Divide & Conquer'. When Black Americans look around The World, We see 2 Models: Nations that aspire to Western Capitalism, & Nations trying to exist outside of it. In both cases, We see how the U.S. Government exploits the divisions within a given Nation to their benefit. We also see how BOTH Models feature a Culture of Anti-Blackness- from Colorism, to full Anti-Black Racism.
From a geopolitical perspective, it's becoming clear that the U.S. Government used 'Multicultural Coalitions' as a Trojan Horse into Black American Politics. When We follow the money, We see the usual suspects over & over. Liberal Progressive Organizations prop up individuals as 'Up & Coming' or 'Rising Stars'. The Grassroots assume that individual is working in Our best interest, so We support their Rise to Power. We see these individuals saying all of the right things at Press Conferences & Public Events; Legislatively, they tell Us to be patient, while they fight to bring Resources to folks outside of Our District. We now know that many of these individuals are 2nd or 3rd Generation Immigrants, who have very little in common w/ Us... Watching these Legislators place other groups before their Constituents is odd to Us.
To get a better understanding of the 'Newcomers' involved in Our Politics, We need to understand where they came from & the circumstances that led to their Immigration. Melanated Immigrants come from what the U.S. Government calls 'The 3rd World'. These are former European Colonies that are operating under varying degrees of Neocolonial manipulation. The Citizens aspire to the former Colonist, more than the Native Culture. There is a consistency of opportunism, & a TOTAL LACK of accountability- in both the individuals, & the Governments that they fled from. These people are Tribal by nature, so they look out for their kinsmen before Anyone Else. In Countries like Nigeria, that means backing an inferior Candidate over a more suitable Candidate from a different Tribe.
The Congressional Black Caucus is FULL of these Individuals. In Our 'Pan Afrikan Haze', We just saw Melanin. We treated this 'New Crop' of Immigrants like the neighbors of Our Childhood. We visualized Shirley Chisholm & Black Immigrants of her Era, as We watched them push the Democratic Agenda of: Coalitions, DEI, LGBTQ..., & Immigration. We assumed they were 'Giving to Get'. They began elevating 'cronies', who seemed more focused on their particular Ethnic Group, than the Collective. As their [Population] numbers rose, so did their arrogance. Our [initial] Silence encouraged them to be more aggressive about their Agenda. These People began speaking on Our Behalf, but don't really understand Our specific situation.
Today, Black Immigrants believe they can speak FREELY about Black Americans. They are now:
Refuting & Revising Our History & Ethnogenesis in North America
Cosplaying Us & Our Heroes regularly 'On Screen'
Laying claim to Traditional Black Communities, Institutions, & Elements of Cultural Expression (aka The 'Take Over')
Chiming in on OUR Reparations Conversations
Minimizing the contributions Black Americans made to America over the last 250Yrs
Ironically, MOST ARRIVED AFTER 1980. When We look at their actions [back] in their Mother Countries, We see a consistency. Self Motivation, is their Driving Force. They talk to Us about 'Pan Afrikanism', but they lack the 'Nationalism' needed to stay Home & build it up. Patriotism, is an act of sacrifice. These Folks aren't willing to sacrifice for the greater good of their Country; they're 'Going for Self'. Many abandoned their families in the pursuit of Self Interest. THIS is the personality type that We have making decisions for Us.
Looking at the bigger picture of American Geopolitics, We fully understand the Role that Black Immigrants are being asked to play. The U.S. assault on Iran, is just an 'extension' of Tactics that the American Government used on Black Americans for generations. As the ONLY GROUP to consistently resist White Supremacy, the assumption is:
If it works against Blackfolk, it will most likely work on Everyone Else.
The Alphabet Agencies learned Counter Intelligence & Destabilization Tactics from their assault on Indigenous Black Communities over the last 250Yrs. If a 'Method' is effective against Blackfolk, it's expanded into U.S. Foreign Policy. We also had to deal with Aerial Bombings & Blockades on Our Towns, along with Asset Seizure & Tariffs on Our Products. City, State, & Federal Entities are ACTIVELY INVOLVED in Destabilizing Black Communities Nationwide. 'Black & Brownfolk' have been exposed as [willing] Agents of Destabilization in Our Communities; just like the CIA & Mossad 'Assets' exposed in Iran weeks before the (latest) American/ Israeli Assault. The Big Difference between Black America & the 'Global South', is We're a 'Minority Group' fighting Western Hegemony INSIDE The Belly of The Beast. Everyone Else, is situated in a Sovereign Nation where THEY are the Majority Population.
Unlike other Ethnic Groups, Black America doesn't have a History of targeting ANYONE. We are called 'Xenophobic' for calling others out on their Anti-Black sentiment, but NO ONE can bring up an example of Black Americans behaving like Ghanaians or South Afrikans; let alone Congolese or Sudanese. For the most part, We try to Live & let Live. Delineation started as a Survival Measure, but is now seen as a Godsend. We can CLEARLY see the Afrikan Union's Plan to make The Americas a '6th Region', & Black America reduced to a Vassal of The Continent. The Democratic Party & The Congressional Black Caucus specifically, are complicit in this. In fact, The CBC & Members of several 'Civil Rights' Organizations are scheduled to attend a Reparations Summit in Ghana that includes an 'Afrikan Juneteenth' Celebration(??!)
My initial response of Outrage was quelled, when I reminded Myself that Marcus Garvey aspired to be 'Emperor of Afrika'. I'm sure that played a role in Ethiopia & Liberia declining to grant him Safe Haven. Is it a stretch to think that Continental Afrikans may feel a certain way about Garvey & UNIA Members that promoted his 'Back To Afrika' Agenda? The 'Mosiah' was vainglorious to say the least. The Majority of his Members rejected a 'Return to Afrika', but applauded his commitment to Self Sufficiency. Is it possible that the Afrikan Union is simply returning the favor? Regardless of the motive, The U.S. Government saw an opportunity to 'Kill 2 Birds w/ 1 Stone'. They can ignore Our specific Reparations claim, if they agree to pay a [smaller] Trans Atlantic claim. We also have to take responsibility for Inviting 'distant relatives' that We knew little about into Our Home.
American Geopolitics over the last 100Yrs has been a departure from the 'Anglo Atlantic Alliance' & a steady climb to World Power Status. Past Presidents were able to play the game of 'Politics', which allowed Europe in particular to 'Save Face', while the U.S. went on a Global Domination Tour. Donald Trump's megalomania has pulled back the curtain & revealed what EVERYONE already knew. The U.S., is a Rogue Capitalist Republic that desires Global Primacy. The Key to this Agenda, is Domestic Primacy. It involves asserting Regional Dominance, & keeping Black America in Check. This explains Trump's Military Moves in Venezuela & Cuba. Despite stalemates in Korea, Vietnam, & Afghanistan, American Culture still influences The Global Masses. Domestically, Blackfolk remain a steady force of resilience against American Hegemony. As the Moral & Cultural Spirit of The U.S., Black Americans have influence. The George Floyd Protests show that We have The World's attention.
As the Dominant Culture in America, We affect outcomes; whether We know it, or not. Donald Trump is using Our 'Exodus' from the Democratic Party, as an opportunity to do whatever he likes. The Democrats are too preoccupied, trying to shore up their shrinking numbers. Numerous Rallies & Protests haven't changed the Polls. Trump's overreach in the Levant/ Western Asia has tipped a delicate balance in the Global Economy. A 'Tactical Surrender' would prevent a potential Global Economic Crisis, & send a message that The U.S. acknowledges its limitations. A display of humility would save Tax Payers the 10's of Millions per Day that the Government is spending on blocking the Strait of Hormuz. It would end the uncomfortable trend of Economic Uncertainty, & give the U.S. Military a chance to assess & update their current Strategies of Engagement.
Unfortunately, Donald Trump is beholden to Miriam Adelson, Benjamin Netanyahu, & the Greater Israel Agenda. Ending the 'Conflict' with Iran will certainly include an ending of [ongoing] Israeli Aggression in Gaza, The West Bank, Lebanon, & Syria. Netanyahu faces possible jail time when he leaves Office, so he's motivated to keep Trump engaged. 'Greater Israel, or Bust' appears to be Netanyahu's Agenda. The backlash in America, is creating a Civil War within the Republican Party. Mainstream Media tells Us that it's Moderate Republicans versus the MAGA Contingent, but it looks more like MAGA versus Christian Zionists. Establishment Democrats support the Israeli Agenda, so they are as vulnerable as their GOP counterparts. The Ashkenazi Contingent is already calling Israel's growing unpopularity in Congress 'Anti- Semitic Behavior'... All of this makes for an interesting Midterm Election Season.
From an [Indigenous] Black American perspective, We're staying Out of This. We're getting Our House in Order, which starts with 'In House Cleaning'. We have too many People around Us who don't wish Us well, so We have to deal with them first. For some of these folks, their duplicity is coming Full Circle. They were duplicitous in their Home Country & fled; in America, they were subsidized to do the same to Us. Now, Chickens have come Home to Roost. These same folks say that We're being xenophobic, because We're targeting them more than Whitefolk. We're simply dealing with 'The Enemy from Within'. Our Actions have created a 'Ripple Effect' that has confounded the Democratic Party, while Republicans allow Donald Trump to run like a Bull in a China Shop.
Black America is laser focused on getting a Black Agenda & a Multigenerational Reparations Package on The Books. Society is dumbfounded by Our ability to get On Code in meaningful numbers. Black Immigrants in many cases, are as surprised as Everyone Else. Donald Trump's establishment of a $1.776B 'Anti Weaponization Fund' has created a minor panic, not because of the Jan. 6th Rioters that are believed to benefit from it; but from the prospect of Blackfolk being able to make Claims of Injustice. America's 'Melting Pot' may bicker among themselves, but they ALL AGREE that Black American Concerns are emotionally driven & overdramatized. The DNC's preoccupation with watering down Black Political Power in The Party, has them making overtures to THE SAME Hispanic/ Latino Voters that betrayed them in 2024.
In a nutshell, America is at a Crossroads. Donald Trump can follow Benjamin Netanyahu & resume attacks on Iran, which will likely mean The End of several Gulf State Nations (except Oman) & America's Military presence in the Region. It will also mean destruction of the Petrodollar. The Global Economic Depression that follows would be Trump's Legacy. The United States' geographic location makes it a difficult target for retaliation, but the Civil Unrest brought on by the resulting Energy Crisis will be enough to keep the Trump Administration busy. On the other hand, Trump may be convinced that Netanyahu CAN'T WIN. Several Geopolitical Experts have said Iran has the capability to make Israel uninhabitable. If Donald Trump can see a Zero Sum Gain in resuming Attacks, he may be more committed to finding a real solution to the Problem he created. A good sign, would be dispatching ANYONE other than Steve Witkoff & Jared Kushner to future Talks, & giving JD Vance power to negotiate in good faith.
