“Exceptionalism” means USA Impunity


Globalism, Sovereignty: Terms of Convenience

G
lobalism and Sovereignty
US officials and their friends are anti-globalism and pro-sovereignty Exceptionalists. Their crimes are “humanitarian” and immune from check, their terrorists too big to prosecute, judge or jail.

Everybody is subject to chastisement except “them” and “theirs”

US officials conveniently complain about “globalism”— except when they and their buddies are profiting from products and services produced and performed with slave labor, slave wages, stolen wages; and imported, exported and transported domestically and transnationally.

US public officials complain about national “sovereignty”— except when they (directly or indirectly), their buddies, agents, terrorists and executioners are trotting the globe, flooding it with weapons, militaries and mercenaries, black ops and high technology slaughtering the world’s peoples and overthrowing their governments—and getting away with it.

C
ase in point: US officials’ relentless breaches of sovereignty
the terrorizing of Venezuela, its government, and its people

May 4, 2020 Granma
The terrorist invaders into Venezuela were reportedly in possession of “a number of sophisticated weapons (including more than 20 rifles and other high-caliber weapons), six vehicles and satellite telephones. These materials were confiscated.
Venezuelan authorities reported that the confrontation left eight dead and the Venezuelan Public Ministry had assigned two prosecutors to investigate the events.
“Attorney General Tarek William Saab tweeted: ‘We have designated prosecutors 73 and 74 with full jurisdiction to investigate the naval incursion in Macuto, via Colombia, which sought to provoke a coup and attempt assassinations in our country.’”
May 4-5, 2020 TASS
A statement by Venezuelan Prosecutor General Tarek William Saab on Twitter said
“Our police officers are heading to the city of La Guaira [on the Caribbean shore] to convoy the new group of mercenaries who were going to the country aboard a ship and were detained [to Caracas].”
“Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Monday revealed that US citizens who work for US leader Donald Trump’s security service were among the mercenaries who invaded the country.” The president identified the captured criminals as
“‘Traitor Antonio Sequea, and  
US citizens Luke Denman and Aaron Berry whose documents the president showed in his televised presentation
Constitutional Assembly President Diosdado Cabello reportedly said “the mercenaries were trying to break through into the country aboard boats.”

On May 3, Venezuelan authorities had announced their successful foil of “an attempt to infiltrate the country by a mercenary group traveling from Colombia looking to stage a coup d’etat in Venezuela.”

May 6, 2020 Al Jazeera

Venezuela’s Interior Minister Nestor Reverol said “attackers tried to land on speedboats before dawn on a beach at Macuto, about an hour north of Caracas, but were intercepted by the military and special police units.”
The group “planned to carry out ‘terrorist attacks’, including assassinating officials.”
The plan was ‘to increase the spiral of violence, generate chaos and confusion … and [ignite] … a new attempt at a coup d’etat.’
In a televised speech on Monday night, Venezuelan president Maduro showed “passports and other identification papers belonging to two former US army members: Airan Berry, 41 and Luke Denman, 34.”

P
erhaps one day Americans will wake up and shovel out the long entrenched and the newcomer crop of criminals and incompetents in elective federal Washington. 

Their means of removal will not be coups d’état; but citizenry-mandated resignations, retirements, term limits, de-selection, recall, whichever one or combination is required. 

Once the dead wood, the corrupt, the nepotists, the militarists and imperialists, the exceptionalists, the ancients, the champions of status quo regression are weeded out and replaced by fresh thinkers, new blood, a better caliber of qualified public servants—the whole world, including the United States of America, will be a whole lot better off.
