William Engdahl writes in “New Eastern Outlook.”
If it weren’t for the fact that he is absolute dictator of a country with a formidable army and nuclear missile technology, North Korean President Kim Jong Un, the 290 pound, 32 year-old ruler would be a clown figure. Unfortunately for world peace, Kim Jong Un, while he is playing games with his rockets and threats of war, is serving the long-term interests of the USA, especially the military industrial complex, the Pentagon and State Department, whose priority increasingly is to make an Asia Pivot of military power projection to contain and isolate the Peoples’ Republic of China, as well as Russia.
F. William Engdahl is strategic risk consultant and lecturer, he holds a degree in politics from Princeton University and is a best-selling author on oil and geopolitics, exclusively for the online magazine -ed
We Hold These Truths has found Mr. Engdahl to be a carefully researcher. He views the US military power structure from an Eastern prospective. His account of Kim Jong Un’s purge and murder of his own family is an eye opener. Is it true that the Korean dictator is being promoted by the Warmaking Establishment (WE) in our own country, as Engdahl tells us? We pray that Donald Trump and others working for WE, but who may not be an inner part of it, will read his paper. Perhaps they will ask themselves if they are being use to promote to even bigger and more horrible wars with the giant states in to the East, notably Russia and China. -Editor Chuck Carlson
