The Atlantic Council, founded in 1961, explicitly states that its mission is built on the principle that the world is better when a strong and prosperous United States acts as a leader alongside allies. The organization produces extensive research, including on the dollar's role in the fight for US primacy.

This is why they love democracy.
Albo will be working for some POS think tank before long, continuing to sell someone out.
Sometimes I wonder if a leaders career ends with becoming the nations leader or whether it only just begins.

Anyone that goes and supports the interests of a foreign nation after being the leader of another is a traitor.

Hi AC,

"Anyone that goes and supports the interests of a foreign nation after being the leader of another is a traitor." I'll agree with that. No bickies for Albo.

The U.S. Department of State has accused the United Nations of facilitating “replacement immigration” aimed at replacing the local population of the U.S. and its Western allies, and undermining the sovereignty of those countries.

The department has officially stated that the U.S. “Objects to the GLOBAL Compact on Immigration”, and the UN's efforts to facilitate it.

In Australia however, one of America's allies, the government doesn't need the UN's help in replacing the population for a more malleable one: it is doing the job for itself. They certainly won't object as America does, and they have pretty much forfeited the right to be called an ally of the U.S.

Albanese's eagerness to hand over our sovereignty to the global ‘government’ of the UN is probably why he has been named global citizen of the year - something the only Western leader who seems to care about his country and the fate of the West would probably spit on. Donald Trump.

In the beginning, Australia prospered when the government was weak and limited. Governors said that settlers couldn't farm here or there, but they did, and they prospered as did the country.

Now, after all those years of prosperity, we are going downhill because of too much government; too much interference from absurd global organisations like the United Nations, who have ‘united’ only the weak and evil politicians who have turned their nations over to the obnoxious UN, and thus lessened their burdens, able to pass off their incompetence and corruption, gibbering about international law, and how the global puppeteers might see us. They are more interested in how the world sees Australia than they are in how Australians see their own country.

I think what I said the other day on another thread was correct.
Something changed with that Trump Xi meeting the other day.
Pretty much the first thing Xi told Trump was that the U.S. was a declining power when he mentioned Thucydides Trap.

The United States is no longer the leader of the world.
Some can live in delusion, but that won't change facts.

The U.S. has pissed on all the good it stood for at the end of WWII, and become a rogue nation.
It's China and Russia now that defend international law.

Looks like the Iranians have laser air defense.
You don't see this air defense in Israel,
The west is so far behind, it's barely even in the game at all.

Hi AC,

How was the US able to capture Maduro and his missus in a two hour operation with one injury if their tech is so second rate?
