Australian writer Caitlin Johnston has ridiculed the continuous attempts of American politicians to portray the events of storming the Capitol building earlier this year as a major event that could have led to extremists taking control of Washington, ignoring the fact that a gang of extremists has controlled the American capital for decades and waged wars on sovereign countries and impose economic sanctions on them.
In an article published by the Substack website, Johnston said: “The continuous talk and controversy on the events of storming the Capitol on the sixth of last January, and describing it by many in Washington as the most dangerous event that the United States has faced in its history, is absurd,” noting that “those, the so-called “extremists”, who stormed the Capitol Building are not the source of the real danger and can’t be resembled to the rulers of Washington who bomb families and civilians around the world for profit and domination.”
“The intruders of the Capitol are not those who ignite a new cold war against Russia and China. They are not those who destroy the environment or enslave humanity and subjugate it to an oppressive and exploitative global capitalist system,” Johnston added. Pursuing the current policies imposed by the coalition of power stationed in the United States poses a real danger and the so-called “moderates in the West” are, in fact, far from being moderate.
Johnston stressed that violence is what Washington and its allies are doing by waging endless wars against countries that refuse to obey its orders, in addition to imposing the stifling economic sanctions.
Johnston concluded by saying that America, through its many tools of the Internet, social networking sites and cinema, has turned many facts and made it difficult for many to see the real criminals who kill innocent people and wage wars under many names. She noted that while the talk continues about the extremists who stormed Congress, many in the United States ignore the fact that a group of extremists has controlled Congress for a very long time.
