While we are considering the distinct lack of ethics of the self-appointed major world power, we should also be familiar with the oft-used fictional phrase ‘rules-based’ International Order, trotted out often to impress the naive. Now this is worthy of a comment as to its meaning.
Of course, says the USA, "rules-based” means that the US makes the rules, always "based" on what they want to occur, and subject to changes when they need to make them. Often. We do take our orders from Biden and the Neocons as you know, but we expect everyone to adhere to them while they are current and even when they change, which is often to suit our hegemonic needs.
This now allows them the right to lie about Iraq WMD, the Gulf of Tonkin episode, the 9/11 charade, the assassination of JFK 59 years ago this week, the accepted humiliation that was the USS Liberty, hundreds of sanctions on countries they don’t control and which they apply each year to maintain a strict adherence to their rules-based international orders as to justify the estimated 20 million people they have killed in so many countries since the end of WWII.
They can kill who they want to by drones, change governments like they did in Chile and then install people like Pinochet to do their 'rules-based' bidding, support apartheid regimes like Israel by funding and weaponry (who in turn they allow to control both houses of the US government) and persecute the likes of Julian Assange for telling the truth.
No one should think this is an easy task for the USA because they have a big world to control with their possibly 900 military establishments around the globe and now sporting a brand new B-52 nuclear-armed bomber base in peaceful little Australia (this country being one of their trained puppets).
So readers, everywhere, please do not lose sight of just one thing. This world is America's world; they make the rules; they lie, kill, they assassinate, they sanction when required; they start wars, as it suits them like the skirmish in Ukraine. So do what you’re told, try not to have too many contrary opinions to their hypocritical Secretary of State Blinken, yet another Israeli appointee (like the majority of all the other senior appointments) who joins with the hundreds of well established Neocons prancing around the corridors of Washington.
Yes. Since the US engineered death of JFK, a good man, 59 years ago, this new and seemingly accepted US political climate means that out of 330 million Americans, that country ends up with a selection of a Biden or a Trump.
How’s that for options? ( add a Clinton to that duo just for fun.)

It is a case of the devil or the deep blue sea.
